I'm a forest ranger, why would I enslave a succubus?

Chapter 112 Ratman Attack and Plan

Vivian suddenly emerged from the trees.

The pretty face still had no expression, and the large, monochrome eyes that glowed white blinked curiously.

"Outside the forest, the enemy is the rat man."

Rhodes immediately understood what she meant.

It's the ratmen, they're attacking the forest.

But why?
These are a group of people who bring corruption and disease, and the town is far more attractive than the forest.

The witch Demia frowned slightly, and after drinking another bottle of magic potion, her condition improved a little.

"I'm being followed."

Not long ago, she was robbed by ratmen who attacked the mine, which successfully triggered all the resentment along the way, and she set off a big one in anger.

This group of rat people must be holding a grudge and following her to seek revenge.

"Penny should be holding them back. Anyway, don't ghouls know [Communication]?"

But even if he could, Rhodes had no way to respond.

This spell is one-way. If we can share the [Chain of Far Words] with the Dragon Soul Girl Naulin, we won't have to go through so much trouble.

You know, even in the Wind Wall Forest, Rhodes could sometimes receive news from Naulin, although it was intermittent.

"I'll deal with them."

Demia struggled to get up, but her face was still pale, and she needed Sharon's help to stand up.

"You stay here for now. Vivian, take Bond to deal with them."

The tree spirit nodded, used [Tree Walker] to go to a tree in the distance, and disappeared with the pony girl.

Callister checked on Demea and said:

"Be careful. As frequent plague spreaders, some evil plague mages will even deliberately track the tracks of ratmen."

Speaking of which.

Why did the ratmen attack the mines?

Is stone something that goes well with rat people?

Rhodes had little interest in this race.

Like gnolls, ratmen are large, bipedal rats that spend most of their time underground.

They use wooden spears and rusty knives. Although their combat power is not very strong, they live in groups and carry with them the aura of disease or corruption. The more there are, the stronger the effect.

More than five hundred years ago, a northern country called Faye, which was surrounded by the sea on three sides, was invaded by a huge number of black rats. They even caused a "plague" area in the area, attracting a large number of plague mages.

Even now, the country of Faye is the stronghold of the Plague Mages.

"Since the companion monster of [Dark Whirlpool Rift] can be the cosmic creature, the Deviljaw, does that mean that this ritual is very close to opening a passage to another dimension?"

Let’s talk about the salon volume.

Rhodes asked.

"Not necessarily, but it is an indisputable fact that this ritual is constantly expanding."

The elf replied.

She placed her right hand on Demia's forehead, emitting a magical light.

"This is the first time I'm using a healing spell on a witch. If there's anything wrong, tell me immediately."

Demia nodded gratefully.

Rhodes saw the dog-man girl Sharon holding her in his arms, with no dissatisfaction on her face.

Instead, he was nervous and worried, holding the witch's little hand tightly.

Their relationship is obviously not as bad as it seems, perhaps it all stems from misunderstanding.

The sight of beautiful women hugging each other always makes people feel happy, and Rhodes couldn't help but take a few more glances.

"Who?!"

Terry suddenly exclaimed.

She raised her hand and threw out several shadow thorns.

After being enhanced by the [Feathers of Shadow Worms], her understanding of shadow spells has been greatly enhanced.

After all, the main purpose of the succubus's shadow spell was to sneak into the victim's home or kidnap the victim. Rhode subconsciously sensed it.

Nothing was found.

When I turned my head, I found that next to the willow tree that had the [Invisibility Detection] skill, there was a tall and thin human figure made of black silk gauze and wearing a hooded headscarf, with half of its body exposed.

High-level secret spell? !

Then the dark figure knocked Tai Li's shadow spear away and retreated in panic.

How could Rhodes do as he wished? He used [Swift Shadow] to move in front of the opponent at high speed.

There were trees all around, so he didn't use the [Giant Slash] with a larger range.

An intense spiritual light emanated from the golden sword.

[Flash of Aesiron]. [Five Flashes]!
In an instant, five sword lights gathered together!
The tall and thin figure was torn into pieces in an instant before he could react.

However, in the next moment, it came together again.

And quickly dived into the shadows underground.

Tai Li reacted quickly, yelled, and punched the ground.

Countless spiritual thorns formed by shadows rose from the ground, and the tall and thin human figure was stabbed into the air, his hands and feet in panic.

[Shadow Edge Breaks Invisibility] activated!
"Well done, Terry!"

Rhodes also saw clearly that the other party's left hand was connected to a silk thread, extending into the depths of the Death Desert.

呲!
The sword flashed and the thread broke.

Then [Five Flashes] is activated!
The opponent was immediately torn apart like silk.

There was no recovery this time.

"It's Shadow Weaver, another cosmic creature."

Callister's face turned grim. As the most knowledgeable person here, she immediately recognized the other party's whereabouts after seeing it with her own eyes.

She raised her hand and released a ball of light.

The ball of light slowly rose into the air, then scattered light blue magic powder.

As the magic powder fell, the figure of another Shadow Weaver was revealed.

Rhodes quickly stepped forward and did the same thing, easily killing him.

Shadow Weaver's body was torn into pieces, but the scimitar in his hand did not disappear.

"They're not that strong, but their stealth is a little too outrageous. I can't feel it at all."

he commented.

"Me too. They're cosmic creatures that are extremely good at hiding. My [Backlight Sky Curtain] won't last long, and it has a full five hours of cooldown."

What the elves mean is that we cannot be on guard all the time.

Rhodes looked at the three mages present.

"Tell me, mages, is there any way to solve this problem as soon as possible?"

Magic must be defeated by magic, and every profession has its own expertise.

It was a bit too difficult for him, a spiritual warrior who didn't even know the common sense of the mainland, to come up with a solution.

Rhodes picked up Shadow Weaver's scimitar.

It is entirely black with dense dark gold patterns, has a simple style, and is made of an unknown metal.

"Three days ago, I submitted a proposal to my superiors for a solution using the [Space Confinement Spell]. This involved requesting a high-level spellcaster to weave a complex and resilient spatial web to quickly envelop and seal the spatial rift created by the [Dark Vortex Rift].

Sharon gave a wry laugh.

"But unfortunately, the plan was rejected by the higher-ups on the grounds that it was too expensive."

[Space Confinement Spell]?

Rhodes touched his chin, remembering that he had seen it in the "Fun Rankings" section of the Snow Hill Evening News.

It ranks seventh on the list of the 'most expensive spells' and requires either 300,000 or 500,000 gold Aaron's spell materials.

The Magic Control Alliance is not a charity, and obviously will not spend so much money on an evil ritual in the desert.
