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

Chapter 191 The Dark Elves Appear
Cecil was stunned for a moment: "You mean, you will give the criminal a chance to atone for his sins?"

"Not really."

Rhodes took out the black slime out of boredom and twirled it around in his hands.

"You could even think they were already dead. After coming under my control, they were merely exerting their last rays of light. In reality, everything they did was in accordance with my will."

Not long ago, I played with this black slime with Terry.

The succubus pinched it into a hollow cylinder, and then put it on the rocket to rub and store energy. However, the size of this thing was limited and it could not completely wrap the powerful rocket. The top part needed to be handled by Terry's mouth.

Unfortunately, the judgment of [Elbert's Secret Book of Fun and Love] was invalid, and this breathing method still judged that Rhodes was training with Terry.

It is not possible to exchange spirituality.

The two then tried various things, but none of them were successful.

After a week of hard work, Rod had basically given up and decided to seek help from [Growing Spirituality].

Add some! Make a way for me!
【Successful use of growth spirituality】

[Special Slime (Unnamed) gains the skill: Slimeball]

[Details: Growth Spirit activates the original spiritual arts that the special slime (unnamed) has not yet mastered. The slime can consume its own water, synthesize and spray slime balls within its body, causing a slight slowing effect on the enemy.]

[Remaining Growth Spirituality: 62]

OK OK.

Rubbish skills.

What's even more frustrating is that this thing is actually considered an intelligent race, and every time you add points, you have to spend 10 points of spiritual growth.

As a qualified philanthropist.

While he was looking at the details of the skill, he was also paying attention to the situation of the girl next to him.

Upon hearing this, Tieflin Saixier remained silent.

Given her identity and race, she must have some unspeakable secrets.

But Rhodes would not discuss it for the time being, as their relationship had not yet reached that point.

If it's Calliste and Demia, there's no problem, as these two are already acquaintances.

In front.

The quarrels at the negotiation table became more intense.

I don’t know what they were talking about, but the people from Coral Bay were blushing and obviously fell behind by a few points.

They called for a red-hooded wizard to come forward for support, and the argument continued to escalate.

Terry: "Wow, such a slacker, asking for help."

On the other side, Callister frowned.

Rhodes discovered: "What's wrong?"

"That red-robed wizard is a dark elf."

Callister's eyes were sharp as she stared at the dark wizard who was completely covered by a red robe at the negotiation table in the distance.

God knows how he could tell, but she wasn't the type to talk nonsense.

History is written by the victors, and she is a traditional elf of the natural school and loves knowledge.

The dark elves mentioned in the elven history that I have read have always been stigmatized to a certain extent.

Although they split up only because of ideological differences at the time, most traditional elves, including Callisto, believed that the dark elves were unforgivable evil and chaotic.

Dark elves?
Rhodes glanced at the tiefling girl beside him again.

Farshad had said that the dark elves they encountered were related to the tiefling siblings.

Moreover, this group of dark elves are servants of a Grand Duke of Purgatory underground.

Demonic time has appeared frequently recently, and the master mentioned by the demon Atu might be the Grand Duke of Purgatory?
Rhodes shook his head.

Not necessarily. Each of the nine layers of Purgatory has at least one Grand Duke, and their methods of interfering with the land vary.

He decided to test Callister's reaction first: "What would you do if you encountered a dark elf?"

"Kill."

The elf replied directly and coldly, "However, unlike traditional elves who prefer to act alone, dark elves travel in groups. In my previous travels, if I encountered one, I would naturally find a way to kill it."

Rhode said the rest for her: "But since we live in the forest now, we have to endure it for now to avoid bringing trouble to our companions in the forest."

Calliste didn't deny it, she had a sour look on her face and snorted coldly.

"Just know you're holding us back."

Aren't you only at level six?
"Come to think of it, aren't you already hundreds of years old? Why are you still only at the peak of the sixth level?"

Hearing that elven girls were not as sensitive about age as human women, Rhode asked directly.

Callister remained expressionless as she replied, "Of course it's fair. When an elf is gifted with the original spiritual power of [Longevity Seed], the speed at which it absorbs and accumulates spiritual energy will be greatly reduced. It's like the price it pays for an exceptionally long lifespan."

"But you humans are different. Although your lifespan is only a hundred years without intervention, your magical and spiritual talents are among the strongest in the entire continent."

Speaking of magical talent.

Rhodes thought of his good friend, the halfling Lily, whom he met in Jade City. She had excellent magical talent and combat skills.

When she went to rescue the Dragon Soul Naolin, she was able to completely suppress a high-level sixth-level student from the Bahadur Magic Academy when she had just reached the initial stage of the sixth level.

Time flew by as we chatted.

The first hour of the negotiations had passed, and it was time for the leader to agree on a deal with Amer.

Except for Cecilia, Rhodes and his group left secretly.

Iku Hillside.

The leeward slope, a hill away from the negotiation table.

An old tiefling with red skin and demon horns on his head walked slowly across the green grass, leaning on a staff.

He was neatly dressed, his pale hair neatly combed back.

His expression was calm, as if he was about to enter the grave.

Soon.

He stopped in front of a small hill with traces of landslide, then tapped the ground with his staff, and ripples of magic immediately spread from where he was standing.

Until the magic ripples touched the brown soil at the landslide.

【The Art of True Knowledge】.

A spell that can see through ordinary, magical, and dark secret doors, not only that, but also invisibility, illusions, and transformations.

Of course, the premise is that the user's skills and level are high enough.

As the magic ripples, a secret door covered by a magical phantom appears in the landslide in front of him.

The old tiefling opened the door and walked forward.

A messy and dirty spell laboratory came into view.

He looked helplessly at the middle-aged human to the side. "Amel, as an elder, I must give you a piece of advice. One of the main principles of magic research is to maintain cleanliness. Eliminating the influence of external factors can obtain more stable experimental results. You are a plague mage who specializes in microscopic matters. I don't need to tell you how complex bacteria and spores on dust are, right?"

"Actually, I don't quite understand. Not only is Plague Mage my part-time job, but so is Mage. What are you doing here, old man Lucius? I don't remember having an appointment with you."

Amel speaks frivolously, although he is a middle-aged man with an unshaven beard and always has an unreliable temperament.

"Negotiations with Stormwind City have begun."

Tiefling Lucius used a [Mage's Hand] to sweep the debris off a wooden block to the ground, and then used a [Cleansing Spell] to clean the surface before sitting down to rest.

As an elderly person, it is natural to prefer sitting to standing.
