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

Chapter 159: Breaking the Seal
Rhodes didn't care about the ratman's body.

Lift the [Sacrificial Sword] before your eyes.

The gap created by the broken sword named Spark Thunder was as deep as the sword spine, and the stress and tension of the entire sword had become unbalanced.

The sword that just cut the rat man in half completely deformed and tilted it sideways.

Although the faint aura of [Memory Metal] has begun to recover, it is obvious that it cannot be used again in the short term.

There are a few spare steel swords in the spell bag, so it doesn’t matter too much.

"The sharpness is only 45, which is a bit lacking."

In comparison, it was a broken long sword covered in rust.

"Spark Thunder?"

Ty Lee jumped out of the shadows with the terrified Naga Eve.

When the danger comes, the well-fed succubus will still work. She pulls Naga into the shadow and escapes in advance, thus escaping the disaster.

Fortunately, her magic became more and more handy after she awakened the [Grand Duke Bloodline], otherwise she might have been directly pulled out by the violent spirit.

When things get done, Terry always takes the credit.

She jumped into Rhodes' arms and asked for a kiss proudly.

"Oh my god, this move is almost as powerful as the seventh level!"

Eve exclaimed, "You fought head-on, and nothing happened?!"

"Thanks to the dragon scales you gave me earlier."

These words reminded Naga of the defeat in the open-air maze, and she instantly became upset and didn't bother to respond.

"Just barely level seven."

Rhodes picked up the Spark Thunder.

It was almost an iron bar corroded into black, with the edges on both sides violently rolled into spirals, presumably to maintain the momentum of rotation when shot out.

It seems that it cannot be used as a sword.

After I get back, I'll ask for advice to see if it's possible to repair it. If not, I'll give it to Ponygirl Bond.

The penetrating power of the ratman's attack far exceeds that of Zombie Celine's [Comet Torrent].

Although relying on external objects, it is also at the seventh level.

But it still couldn't penetrate the defense of [Dragon Scale Technique].

Besides.

Rhodes was also quite interested in the spiritual magic that the rat man used to suddenly appear above his head.

This guy is not a mage and cannot use skills like [Space Shift], but he does not have the spiritual fluctuations to move his physical body at high speed.

Naga is indeed a greedy person.

As for the corpse search, not long after Rhodes picked up the broken sword, Eve had already collected all the valuable things nearby.

"A share?"

She was originally in high spirits, but when she remembered that there were people around, she could only ask reluctantly.

It looks like they don't want to separate at all.

Rhodes glanced at it.

No interest.

I originally thought the longbow used by the ratmen was a good thing, but it turned out that it was not as good as Bond's sickle-claw shortbow.

Eve was overjoyed, then reluctantly looked at Terry.

After all, this guy just saved his life.

"What about you?"

Succubus have never been interested in such external things.

Terry had turned into a little girl of seven or eight years old, sitting on Rod's shoulders, chewing his hair and laughing.

She smiled and said:
"I don't want it. If you want to repay me, let me taste the essence that the master has poured into your body. I heard that men will give different tastes to different women."

"In fact, we Nagas don't have the habit of repaying favors."

The three of them chatted for a long time.

A green crystal ball was successfully obtained in the center of this construction space.

It emits a faint green light, and there is a hint of spiritual fluctuation in it.

Rhodes inexplicably felt a sense of familiarity, a bit like the spiritual dimension in the horror field.

After obtaining the treasure that stabilizes the space.

This unbuilt underground city trembled slightly, and then returned to calm.

I guess this space is not too big and there is no danger of collapse for the time being?
Follow the rope out and return to the tunnel.

We walked forward for nearly thirty minutes.

Only then did I finally encounter the ritual seal that Eve mentioned.

An inconspicuous magic circle, but the magic power of the spells on it is surprisingly full and fresh.

After all, Rhodes had practiced magic, and he could tell that this ritual seal was definitely established recently.

Looking at the complexity of the magic and rituals above, it is definitely not something that a low-level noob can do.

It is highly likely that it is not the work of Quartz Town.

The city hall has already built a shallow earth and stone wall, so why build another seal inside?

Is it a wandering wild mage?
Hard to say.

There are so many people wandering around Dusk Hills recently that it would be hard to say what happens even if one or two of them sneak in.

"No matter who it belongs to, just open it first."

Naga doesn't care about that.

The green crystal ball was activated, and immediately stretched out a layer of fishing net-like energy, pressing against the cave wall in 360 degrees without any dead angles.

"Oh? Not spirituality, nor magic?"

The technology of the rat people is really interesting.

They are actually able to rely on non-spiritual powers. It seems that we cannot underestimate them just because they live underground.

"I'll go first."

Eve strode forward.

She pulled out a magic ring.

start up.

The spirituality emerging from the surface of the activated ring transformed into a silk thread, slowly extending into the ritual seal.

After a moment, the magic of the ritual faded.

"Huh? It hasn't reached its lowest point yet, there's something."

After saying that, she took out another one and did the same thing.

"I've been wanting to ask you before, where did you get so many magic rings? I remember that the Heavenly Flower Kingdom stopped providing them to Eselon."

"Stopped exporting? No, the Heavenly Flower Kingdom only stopped official exports to Eseron. Exports to the major ethnic tribes in Eseron's territory have increased instead of decreased."

Ultimately, Aetheron is still a kingdom ruled by humans.

As national strength weakens, will it instead support other unstable forces within the country and use this to corrupt the internal environment?
Although I don’t quite understand what Eseron’s countermeasures are, it seems that the Heavenly Flower Kingdom has indeed achieved its goal.

After all, the chaos had spread from the central city to Quartz Town in the far west.

Soon.

The rituals have been corrupted to a certain extent.

Eve quickly took off some of her clothes, leaving only her underwear and a loose vest.

The body becomes larger and turns back into the original Naga form.

The panties turned into a miniskirt, and the loose vest turned into a tight vest that exposed the waist.

Plump and beautifully shaped snow-white southern hemisphere.

The heavy rabbit also appeared vaguely.

"Hey, stop staring at me like that."

"Feel sorry."

Her magic ring could only temporarily weaken the strength of the ritual seal, but could not completely break it.

Modern magic rituals have evolved to the point where they now include certain countermeasures.

Unless a wizard arrives to personally deconstruct it, the weakening of the magic ring alone will not only make it impossible to remove it, but may also activate other rituals.

Of course, spiritual warriors have their own way.

They have always been good at taking things tough.

They firmly believe that when the magic power of the ritual reaches a certain standard value, the ritual will be forcibly broken, so that the emergency measures activated will be the weakest.

Then, it's a gamble on whether your ritual emergency measures are powerful enough or whether my body is hard enough.

"I thought you had some good idea. I should have called Selina over earlier. She's a mage after all."

"You don't understand. Mages are very slow at deconstructing. Extremely slow. There are a ton of tombs in Jingmo, and which one isn't broken through by us Nagas using this method? This is our specially made ring. Waiting for the mages to come? It would take them a month to deconstruct one!"
