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

Chapter 143 Selina and Assimilation
"I surrender."

This Selina played on the fine tradition of Bahadur and decided to surrender at the speed of light.

Speaking of which, the people in this academy really do prioritize saving their lives at all times, which makes one think that this is one of their school rules.

"Refuse to surrender."

Rhodes smiled.

Pink and purple resentment rose from his feet.

The right leg has turned into a state of [Complaints Shocking the Sky].

Then he suddenly crushed the last layer of magic shield and stepped on the opponent's head.

The resentful fire instantly burned the hood of the black robe and Delina's pretty face.

Even the bones were exposed.

This guy is also a ruthless person.

He groaned and frowned.

Other than that, there was no other reaction.

"Sir, there's no direct grudge between us. There's no need for this. Magical contract or enslavement spell, whatever you choose."

The pain of resentment caused her to tremble all over, and even a small pool of urine smelled from her body.

But even so, her tone remained calm.

"Mr. Rhodes."

Farshad called softly from behind.

This elf, who has been educated by humans, is too kind-hearted, even a little saintly.

Rhodes could see the reluctance in his eyes, even when facing the enemy who attacked first.

That’s okay too.
Anyway, I'm quite curious about this monster, so if I feel something is wrong after asking, it doesn't matter if I kill it.

The fire of resentment was extinguished on its own.

"Let me do it, Mr. Rhodes. I have a magic contract."

"No, I have something more reliable."

[Successful use of the enslavement spell]

[Slavery Object 8: Selina Cobbs]

[Race: Zombie]

【Age: 32】

[Obedience: 38]

Evaluation: For a human, Selina's magical talent and dedication to research are quite impressive, but within the Bahadur School of Magic, this was somewhat lacking. To successfully graduate, she used magic to block most of her emotional transmission, allowing for greater focus. To dedicate herself to research for the next twenty years, she transformed herself into a zombie.

Selina was stunned for a moment.

Half of her face was disfigured, covered in scarlet rotten flesh and bone.

The other half of his face looked at Rhodes, revealing a fleeting look of astonishment.

Did you immediately sense the extraordinary power of the enslavement spell?
Rhodes secretly admired that he was worthy of being Bahadur's student.

But zombies?
They look completely indistinguishable from humans.
"Is this level seven? That's a bit too weak."

He smiled and sheathed the Sword of Devotion.

"Mr. Rhodes is too strong!"

Cecile said excitedly.

The previous confrontation had made her heart surge with emotion, and there was already a hint of care in her eyes as she looked at Rhodes.

"I'm afraid it's not a complete seventh level."

Farshad cast the Light Spell again and said, "This Selina has been here for twenty years, and I'm afraid she hasn't truly completed the process of becoming a mage."

"Advanced process?"

"Yes, whether it's Legendary, Domain, or Arcane, there are corresponding promotion ceremonies. Even if her magic power has accumulated to the required level, she can only be considered a half-seventh level. Besides, Mr. Rhodes, you are indeed too strong."

The succubus Terry jumped out from the shadows, hugged her master, and kissed her hard.

She didn't know why, but every time she saw her master looking mighty, she would feel inexplicably excited.

"Mr. Elf is right, I am indeed a half-seventh level."

Selina struggled to her feet, cast a healing spell on herself, and then a [Dust Cleansing Spell].

Seeing that her hood was burnt, she simply took it off, revealing her short, dark red hair.

But the resentful fire had burned half of his scalp, so the scene of being normal on one side and exposed on the other looked quite terrifying to others.

Selina didn't care at all and stood respectfully beside Rhodes as if nothing had happened.

He looked as if he would do whatever the emperor wanted.

Rhodes felt that her face was a bit too unsightly, so he used some [Green Grass Field] to treat her.

"Thank you Master."

"First, tell me about you and this monster."

"Okay, as you can see, this is one of my research sites. My topic is 'Research and Exploration of the Assimilation of Cosmic Biological Continents.'"

"We've all heard this, so let's jump right into the conclusion."

"Understood, Master."

Selina bowed slightly.

Then said:
"I believe that continental assimilation, or spiritual assimilation, does exist. Unlike the psionic energy and ether that exist in other dimensions, the continent we live on is filled with spirituality. This spirituality is part of the essence of all creation, a divine spark that possesses the nature of creation."

"Any alien species that enter this continent will be completely transformed into native species through the process of spiritual assimilation. Earlier, we mentioned the Horror Beasts. I described them as stowaways, and that's exactly what they are. They enter without any formalities, and the ether and psychic energy within them come into direct contact with the spirits without any buffering. The result is not assimilation, but alienation."

"Alienation will only lead to the birth of deformities. This is why horror beasts particularly like to parasitize the wombs of female mages. They believe that using this artificial gestation method to mitigate spiritual alienation is a pity. Nine out of ten times, it will fail. The horror beasts' brain capacity cannot accommodate their sophisticated thinking."

"So, what is the correct process of spiritual assimilation? It is..."

"The devil's nest in the maze." Rhodes interrupted her deliberately.

Selina paused.

He gave a very stiff smile.

"Master, you're right. It's the Demon's Nest in the Labyrinth that is part of my theory. I believe that after the Labyrinth's creation, the connection with the alien dimension has become closer. Therefore, there is a chance that cosmic creatures can open an entrance to the Demon's Nest in the Labyrinth. I hope this can be an 'official' way to enter this continent."

"So why are they so keen to come to our world?"

She had to pause at this point.

He looked at his new master with a smile, as if he were a teacher waiting for an answer.

"what is it then?"

Rhodes smiled and didn't care.

Stop treating the wound on her face.

At least there is no more rotten flesh and visible bones.

Now it looks like half of the face is red and bumpy. Although it is not good-looking, at least it is not to the extent that ordinary people would scream and see a ghost when seeing it.

Selina was a thin woman, with the remaining half of her face delicate and pale.

"It's self-rescue."

She said, "It was an act of self-rescue by the creatures in the universe who sensed that a drastic change was about to occur in the alien space and decided to leave."

"The maze has a long history. Could it have been noticed ten thousand years ago?" Farshad asked.

“That’s what I don’t understand.”

Selina looked at the monster still standing there. "Even the monsters deepest in this nest have undergone partial spiritual assimilation and have lost a large portion of their intelligence. There's no pattern in their speech, making it difficult to decipher. I can't figure out the reason."

"speech?"

Rhodes smiled and took a step closer to the monster.

His left hand rested nonchalantly on the Soul-Shaking Blade.

"To be honest, I am the continent's foremost language master. I can speak any language or dialect without any instruction."

Selina glanced at him.

He said expressionlessly: "Master is really amazing."

Then he immediately changed the subject, "As for the state of this monster, I used a spell to control it with my mind. Although it has a good mental resistance, as long as the method is correct, it can still be controlled."

Rhodes grabbed her head and twisted it towards the monster.

"Ask."
