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

Chapter 23: The Elves' Ambition and Secrets
Compared to Calliste, Farshad's face was much softer.

He walked over to his companion, a smile on his handsome face.

And nodded to everyone present.

Although he is an adult elf, he is actually 150 years older than Callisto.

Precisely because of his youth, he is different from many stubborn elves and is curious about everything new he encounters.

This was the first succubus he had ever seen.

It was rumored that succubus could easily arouse the desires of all intelligent races, but standing in front of this person, he did not feel bewitched at all.

“It’s really eye-opening.”

He said sincerely, "I always thought succubi were evil creatures."

"No." Rhodes saw that he had no ill intentions, "Succubus are indeed evil creatures."

"Hey!"

Terri kicked him from behind.

Farshad suddenly caught sight of Calliste gathering her magic.

"Calm down." He quickly held her shoulders and whispered.

Then he turned to Rhode and said, "Are you going to the deeper levels? The monsters there are very powerful, especially those with self-destructive venom. They are quite difficult to deal with. I personally don't recommend it."

"Thank you for your concern. Mr. Rhodes has a treasure that can defend against venom." Siti quickly tried to smooth things over. "It's getting late. We still need to continue exploring!"

He urged Rhodes to go deeper.

Lest they fight.

Rhodes shrugged and walked past the two elves.

During this time, he glanced at the indifferent Callister.

Watching the other person disappear into the cave.

"That human gentleman is only at level five. He will probably leave the deep layer soon," said Farsad.

Calliste said coldly, "You should have let me take action. Even if I didn't kill the succubus, I should have taught her a lesson."

"This is the territory of the Winged Crystal Clan."

Farshad shook his head. "We can't attack their friends here."

"I've heard that the situation in the Flawless Crystal Land is not good, but I didn't expect it to have reached the point where it has become collusion with the succubus."

"You seem to have a deep malice towards succubi?"

He heard other emotions in Calliste's tone.

It's not just the disgust towards succubi.

"You are still young, Farshad. The tribe has had serious accidents due to this disgusting creature."

Farshad's eyes lit up.

The nerve of curiosity went straight from the spine to the head.

"What is it?"

"You don't need to know."

"."

Callister took a deep breath and said:

"This time, besides giving you some experience, the most important thing is to find out the situation of the Flawless Crystal Land."

"Ok?"

"The Elders Council intends to assist the Winged Crystal Clan and stabilize the situation in the Flawless Crystal Land, provided they are willing to allow us to reside there and exchange our maze traversal techniques."

Farshad was so shocked that he couldn't help but stop.

"This is an invasion! Callister!"

“This is not, this is protecting nature.”

Callister's expression didn't change at all as she walked forward, heading towards the vast crystal forest outside the mine.

The dwarven alchemical lamps gradually came into view.

Farshad doesn’t understand.

This was far from the picture he had imagined of living in peace with the elves.

And what Callister said again instantly shattered his three views.

"Thousands of years ago, nature was all we saw. That was the golden age of the elves. Until the rise of humanity, everything from nature to artificiality was transformed, and our territory retreated from the center of the continent to the forests on the edge. Farshad, returning the continent to nature is the ultimate dream of the naturalists."

Bang!
A monster exploded, blood and internal organs splattering everywhere.

The sword in Rhodes' hand turned and slashed through the arm of another lizard monster.

Blue arcs of electricity climbed up the opponent's scales, instantly burning a large area.

The lizard monster let out a shrill scream. As it entered a deeper level, it underwent some changes.

Their forelimbs were longer and the digits became more pronounced.

At this time, Rhodes had no choice but to use various spiritual techniques.

"The attitudes of those two elves are quite interesting."

He used [Flash of Aesiron].

The brilliant spiritual light suddenly illuminated the mine.

He swung his sword three times at a speed that was invisible to the naked eye, instantly cutting the monster into several pieces.

"A hundred years ago, the Council of Elders was led by a great elder named Manla. He believed that humans were part of nature, and he placed many young elves in human society to learn. As a result, these elves tended to understand the ways of the world and were more tolerant."

Siti hid behind.

Seeing Rhodes's relaxed look, he finally felt less nervous.

Terry was originally a lazy person, but this time she actually came forward with a magic dagger.

Her movements were not as smooth and agile as Rod's, but she gradually became familiar with them during the fight with the monsters.

At first, Rhodes was afraid that she couldn't handle it.

Give her the Guardian's Curtain.

Who knew that she would get so carried away by her personality that she not only refused it outright, but also said things like "it stinks" and "who wants your things", and scolded him.

Rhodes is so unhappy.

But I can't help but look forward to the scene when she asks for replenishment of energy later.

"The elf, known for its restraint, meets the succubus, known for its indulgence." He commented after hearing what Siti said.

"That's right, fire and water don't mix. Furthermore, I once heard from a Rock Spirit that a long time ago, a major incident occurred within the elves due to a succubus."

As he spoke, Siti glanced at Terry secretly.

It seems that he is curious and wants to get the answer from Terry.

"What are you looking at! I'm not interested in Douding!"

"Woo."

Rhodes dodged and used [Flash of Aselon] repeatedly.

bang bang bang-

The venom splashed all over his body.

The triple superposition of [Chang'en Seal], [Tree Armor], and [Guardian's Shroud], and more importantly, the recent significant increase in poison resistance, makes these venoms like a tickle.

What is the most fatal point for others is not worth mentioning to him.

Unfortunately, the Crystal Tree does not meet the requirements for [Tree Gift], and [Tree Armor] does not have any special bonus, but the high recovery ability is still there.

After a long battle.

He felt that the spiritual power in his body showed signs of growth again.

"Terry, tell me about it." Rhodes asked with a smile, while chopping off the forelimb of a monster.

"Call me Miss Terry!"

".Miss Terry."

Terry's lips curled up.

[Terry's obedience to you +1, current obedience: 61]

She took a long step back and drank another bottle of healing magic potion.

"It's not a big deal. It's just that a high-level succubus accidentally squeezed the Manla elder to death."

"what?!"

Siti was horrified and shocked beyond words.

"No wonder, no wonder there has never been any news of Elder Manla's death."

He took out a small notebook and quickly wrote the message in it.

Rhodes finally killed a large wave of monsters. He took a breath and began to collect stomach sacs.

"Don't believe everything she says."

"Tsk, are we succubi still draining a small number of people? A mere elf is nothing, even an ogre would be fine, I only have an aunt."

"stop."

Rhodes raised his hand: "I don't really want to know your exotic recipes."

"How dare you interrupt Miss Terry? I'll punish you by making you act like a dog from now on!"
