Chapter 241: Chapter 149: What to Do When Bewitched_2

Many people were injured, but they all toughed it out on their own.

This price is really very fair.

"If someone suffers a serious injury and needs expensive treatment, the hospital can also offer installment payments, but it requires a fixed asset mortgage, including territory houses, personal equipment, etc.," Zhou Bai added another word of caution.

The people at the back listened, their eyes widening once more, could it really be possible to do it this way?

"The hospital is now in great need of doctors and pharmacists; those with these professions can apply to the hospital. We offer excellent terms. Besides, those with medical experience are also welcome."

The latter two were targeted at the doctors from Blue Star.

From the current situation, it was evident that the doctor’s assistance would make the healing process smoother.

Most importantly, the scarcity of medics meant that more effort had to be put into recruiting doctors.

The volume of discussion among the group grew louder.

"Isn’t this too good to be true?"

"It feels like I’m dreaming."

"Can there really be a territory that achieves this?"

"It’s unbelievable."

...

Zhou Bai’s announcements regarding the military camp and the hospital had overwhelmed them.

Just for these two points alone, they were willing to become residents of Hope Village.

Zhou Bai listened to their conversations, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly.

The best was yet to come!

He seized this opportunity to disseminate the information, capturing their hearts, and through them, the news would spread.

After confirmation, there would be no need for further action; almost all of the nearly thousand visitors today would surely stay, and even those who left would inevitably become promoters of Hope Village in other territories.

The word would spread from one to ten, and from ten to a hundred—perhaps Hope Village’s reputation would propagate unexpectedly.

Another reason was that once the local residents became more informed, if other locals showed up, they wouldn’t need to step in; these locals would share the information, and credibility would be higher.

Next up, Zhou Bai introduced the Prison, the Heroic Spirit Hall, the Beast God Temple, among others.

"Because of these two buildings, you will see undead beastmen in the territory, but rest assured, they are restricted by the territory’s rules and won’t harm you actively," he noted, implying that passive retaliation was an exception.

They understood the underlying meaning of his words.

Their gaze lingered on the two distinctive buildings, giving them a moment of reverie.

Each introduction struck a chord in their hearts.

Undead, beastmen... how did Hope Village manage to have so many special buildings? Such news, if it spread, would surely provoke much curiosity!

The most significant fact was the undead’s presence in the human territory!

Just when they thought the special buildings tour was coming to an end, they noticed a large expanse of land that had been cultivated.

"What is that area being used for?" someone asked, their fear of the Village Chief replaced by curiosity due to Zhou Bai’s amiable attitude, even though they acknowledged the village’s unique buildings seemed complete. Yet, Hope Village was notably sparse.

This was a common and awkward issue for emerging territories: large areas of land that couldn’t be utilized.

Therefore, many territories would sell land to other merchants or nobles—the more advanced the territory, the more valuable their land.

The way Hope Village appeared, it was clear it aimed to use the land, but for what purpose? It wouldn’t be for farming in such a location, would it? Wouldn’t that be a bit too greedy for the heavens?

"That will be the site for factories and a school," Zhou Bai explained, intending to introduce it regardless.

"The factories are for producing territorial products, constructed by our building team. Once built, we will recruit a large number of workers for the factories, with different factories producing different goods, overseen by different managers. Those interested can wait for further announcements."

"As for the school, it’s more of an alternative academy. Unlike others, our territory’s school will enroll children from the age of 6, teaching knowledge and various skills. At the age of 12, their talents will be assessed. Even without magic talents, they can still choose a professional path based on their other talents..."

Zhou Bai spoke eloquently, each word seemingly striking a chord in their hearts.

If the prior advancements were already unbelievable, the manifestation of the school truly challenged their worldview.

"Is that really true?" Brooke asked eagerly from the crowd. He had a child; if it was true, he wouldn’t have to worry about his child’s future.

As he asked, his grip on his child tightened involuntarily—this meant so much to them!

"Of course, I guarantee it on my honor as a Village Chief," Zhou Bai said seriously, glancing at the child in Brooke’s arms and the anxious looks on other parents’ faces.

At that moment, there was a brief silence, quickly followed by a swell of voices.

"I’m definitely staying at Hope Village!"

"Me too."

"I still feel like I’m dreaming!"

...

At this point, Zhou Bai knew his part was done.

The remaining journey was completed amidst the eager anticipation of most.

When they arrived in front of the Lord Mansion, Zhou Bai said, "Identity verification will be done here. After that, you can either rent or buy a house in the resident area. Just keep walking down this road. There’s still plenty to see in the territory; you have time to explore. I won’t say more, but let me end with this—welcome to Hope Village."

Finished, Zhou Bai left.

Watching her departing figure, many realized something.

Zhou Bai had done it on purpose, intentionally introducing them to the territory to win them over.

But what of it? If all of this was real, what did it matter if they were conquered?

The next moment, many walked determinedly toward the Territory Mansion.

Those sent by merchant teams to investigate, watching the others, resisted the urge to follow.

They wondered... had they also been bewitched?
