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

Chapter 114: Flesh Proliferation and Night
Seeing that his master did not take any other action, the ghoul had no choice but to start cleaning up the rat man's body.

"How do you plan to distribute them? Convert them all into ghouls?"

Rhodes watched her pick and choose, pinch the ratman's muscles, and test his spirituality.

He asked curiously.

"No, Master. I will select the seven best-looking corpses for transformation, and use the rest as food. My strength is limited, and I may not be able to handle too many."

Including the previous three, she only planned to have ten ghoul subordinates.

"You can only control ten at level six?"

Penny was stunned for a moment, fearing that Rhodes would think she was incompetent.

He quickly said, "No, no, Master, if I let go, I can control fifty or sixty of them. However, after the last battle with Master, I realized the importance of quality."

"Good."

Rhodes praised.

But with the increase in population, the food expenses for the zombies will have to double.

Thinking of this, he fell into deep thought.

It’s not that I feel bad about money.

Instead, he thought of a new skill that he had never used before.

【Physical proliferation】.

Then, under Penny's curious gaze, he reached out and touched the body of a ratman.

next moment.

The corpse began to grow fat and swell at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if it were inflated.

Fat accumulated layer by layer, fingers began to grow on the palms, and tumors grew densely on the face, vaguely forming the shape of a nose, lips and ears.

Anyway, it looks very weird and disgusting.

"What kind of spell is this?"

Penny was not disgusted or afraid of these things, she was just curious.

But it's impossible for you to ask her to eat a bite on the spot.

Not out of fear of poisoning and plague.

Ghouls are no fools. Their own race is already unpopular, yet they insist on dancing in their master's minefield? How can I turn over and pin this ranger down?
At most, they would wait until the owner left and then secretly hide the food to eat.

Rhodes ignored her.

Take a closer look at the deformed corpse.

It is confirmed that they are all repeated growths of previous organs.

He injected spirituality again, but this time he was intentionally controlling it.

Pat pat pat——

He saw fingers growing out from the edge of his palm at the position he designated.

"It's much easier to control than the Gravity Well."

Say it.

Rhodes raised his palm.

pat-

A finger slowly grew out next to the little finger.

Then try to control it.

"It's okay. I was a little uncomfortable at first."

It's like there's a thin thread pulling and exerting an opposite force against you.

After getting tired of playing, Rhodes cut off the proliferated fingers.

Although I haven't fully comprehended the Green Grass Domain yet, this minor injury is no problem.

Throw the severed finger to Penny.

It was a bit funny to see the ghoul's eyes wide open, holding the severed finger in his hands as if it were a god.

The newly proliferated parts can be taken back, but Rhodes was just bored and wanted to see Penny's reaction.

"Thank you, Master! Thank you! Thank you!!!"

Penny prostrated herself before him. Ghouls are naturally extremely eager for the flesh and blood of those close to them.

Still under the enslavement spell.

Oh my god, I’ve been wanting to eat my master for a long time!
[Penny's obedience to you +5, current obedience: 45]

Decided.

After sucking the skin and flesh off your fingers, use the bones to soak in water and drink it!

Given that he is the only one who can resist the mental attack of the Jawbeast.

He stayed in the Magic Tree House in Shaliu District these days so that he could continue to pay attention to the changes in the ceremony.

As for Amy, the original resident of this tree house, she is on vacation and is free to go wherever she wants.

The prerequisite is that you don't cause trouble, don't leave the forest, and take a bath every day.

There are many small houses in Fengbi Forest anyway, so she can live in any of them.

Terry and the banshee Chris continued to live with Rhode. Originally, the banshee was reluctant to approach the Death Desert, but under the control of the enslavement spell, she did not have a chance to speak.

As for the three spell researchers: the elf, the witch, and the dog-man.

They began a secluded and intensive research life.

Rhodes had only seen it twice, when he went to pick wild fruits to satisfy his cravings.

As for the monsters.

Although they have occurred intermittently in the past few days, the intensity is not as strong as the first time, and now that we have the means to control them, it is quite easy to deal with them.

On the third day, Rhodes even forced his way into the Death Desert alone and slaughtered a wave of enemies.

But by the fifth or sixth day, not many were seen.

It is worth mentioning that Chris has good mental resistance.

It can actually resist the attack of the Jawbeast to a certain extent.

Maybe it's because she is a spirit?

one night.

Rhodes suddenly felt three people approaching from a distance.

Not from the desert, but from the forest.

At this time, this kind of movement could only be caused by the three mages who were conducting research.

He quickly released Terry's horns and unloaded his weapon.

"Don't come out~ What are you doing~"

"Someone's coming, get dressed."

The succubus snorted in dissatisfaction.

Wrapped in a water-stained quilt, she turned her head and ignored him.

Rhodes quickly put on his clothes.

The heated discussion outside the door gradually got closer, and soon there was a knock on the door.

When the door opened, it was indeed the three ladies.

"Mr. Rhodes! It's possible! The maze method might work. Hmm? What does that smell?"

Sharon was as excited as a puppy, her tail wagging wildly behind her, and then she sniffed carefully with confusion.

Demia and Callister were much calmer.

One of them smiled gently, and the other had a sour face.

Then, after noticing the smell coming from the house and the slight sweat on the forehead of the man in front of him, they were all stunned for a moment.

The dog girl and the witch took a step back at the same time, looking embarrassed.

The elf snorted.

"You'll get yourself killed, human."

"Let's talk outside, Chris! Bring us chairs, tables and tea!" Rhodes ignored her.

He threw a small stone at the banshee hiding in the corner of the beam.

She suddenly woke up and screamed:
"No! Master, please stop fucking me! I'm a dead soul! I can't take it anymore!!!"

After seeing everyone's gaze.

Chris froze in place, then pushed her hair in front of her to cover her face and silently floated down to help everyone move things.

God knows what this guy dreamed about.

after a little while.

Outside the Magic Tree House.

A bright spell emitting warm light rose in the air.

Everyone sat around and drank the hot tea in front of them.

"You're saying that existing technology doesn't allow us to build a new maze, but we can transplant a maze from one of our labyrinths like we transplant plants?"

Rhodes was somewhat surprised by their ideas, and what they said was too simple and sounded a bit incredible.

"But, is this possible?"

"We did find records of such spell experiments, but there isn't much data."

The witch Demia shook her head and smiled at Rhodes. Her chubby face was cute and intelligent.

"And the focus of this experiment depends on you, Mr. Rhodes."

"I?"

What do I have to do here?

Callister then said, "Not long ago, when Xiao Ke, Bond, and I were chatting, I mentioned that you once entered the open-air maze in Blazing City and obtained a pass, right?"

Rhodes nodded.

He told Bond this experience as if it were a story, and the little guy's eyes sparkled as he listened, looking very longing.

Of course, he automatically concealed the matter of the half-dragon Xiali and the land Naga Eve.
