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

Chapter 301 Liberation of Power
I always feel like I've been forcing Callister too much lately.

Rhodes felt apologetic, and took advantage of this moment to use the Green Grass Domain skill [Green Vine Mutual Healing] to wake the victim up and heal him.

This skill can not only restore injuries, but also restore various energies and dispel negative effects.

"let me go."

Calliste tried to push him away and put her hand on his chest, but she was too weak to muster much strength.

"Don't make trouble. I have spiritual healing skills. Just let me hold you for a while."

The long, pointed elf ears are covered in pink.

Even though she could indeed feel the response, she didn't intend to follow Rhode's advice and insisted on staying away with a sour face.

The elf is a stubborn creature.

What she wants to do is something that cannot be stopped even by ten oxen. Forcing it will only backfire.

Rhodes had no choice but to let go and let Terry forget about it, or let Vivian support her.

The two of them had always been at odds, and the succubus would probably take the opportunity to bully her.

Hear the call.

The tree spirit came in from outside obediently, put the elf who was half a head taller than her in her arms, and gently stroked the other's back as if she was protecting a baby.

There's quite a commotion here.

It was a densely populated hotel, and there were noisy sounds coming from the street outside.

Rod looked outside at this time and found that the sheriffs were already in place.

I even heard people below planning their breakthrough routes.

He saw his acquaintance, Sheriff David, and waved to him from the window.

David is the sheriff's squad leader, and everyone under him knows this famous forest ranger in Quartz Town.

When they saw it was him from afar, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

The tense atmosphere suddenly disappeared.

"It's Mr. Rhodes!"

"Well, since Mr. Rhodes is already here, there's no problem."

"How about it? Wanna go for a second round of drinks later? There was a fight at the Violet Tavern, and the whole hall was trashed. There's no place to sit."

Soon.

Rhodes has told David the whole story.

Then he checked with everyone else to see if there were any other situations in the hotel.

very lucky.

When Seamus found the unconscious proprietress Lucy in the basement, he did not kill her.

At the same time, a teleportation array was discovered there.

After investigation, Zombie Selina concluded that the other side of the magic circle had been destroyed.

Just in case, Rhodes destroyed the magic circle, fearing that Seamus would secretly teleport the beast patient here.

David's face turned ugly after hearing this speculation. He canceled the team members' follow-up party for the second game and sent more people to search the entire Quartz Town for possible teleportation arrays overnight.

Rhodes refused to help with this matter. He took the elf with exhausted magic power back to the forest.

Baiyu District, outside the hospital tree house.

"Does magic power depletion have so many side effects?"

After hearing what Zombie Selina said, Rhodes pinched his brows in distress.

Mental disorder, memory loss, reduced talent and increased magic consumption due to rejection of magical energy, weakened vitality, etc.

Each of them is a side effect that can seriously affect the mage's future.

Not long ago, Callister was exhausted in the battle against the plague mage Amel, and tonight she did it again by casting a spell beyond her own class.

Such frequent use would put a tremendous strain on the body. "Most of these side effects of mana depletion are caused by a prolonged lack of mana in the body. Prompt replenishment will reduce the likelihood of occurrence."

Selina said with a blank expression.

After transporting the elves back to the tree house, she immediately set up a magic circle to gather magic power, but this also required Callister to actively absorb it.

"I remember she was exhausted once before, but she recovered so well that you couldn't even tell. Perhaps these elves have some special magic?"

The zombie frowned slightly.

Well.
The night when the elf's magic power was exhausted, it attacked me at night, and it lasted the whole night.

Elibert's Secret Book of Love was also used to its fullest extent. Perhaps because of this, he was able to replenish his magic power in time.
Try again tonight?
Not very likely. Given the elves' personalities, they probably wouldn't be willing to do such a thing openly even if they were crippled.

Tsk. Such a troublesome personality.
"What about you? I remember you ran out of magic power once. Is that okay?"

Selina looked at the dark forest in the distance with an expressionless face.

"This is the advantage of having a zombie body, my master. We don't have to worry about the weakening of vitality and the rejection of magical energy leading to a decrease in talent and increased magic consumption, because our energy has been reduced to the lowest level since the moment we became zombies."

Rhodes could hear the resentment and indignation in her tone.

That's right.

Selina has lived in the forest for some time, and her magic power accumulation has hardly changed.

Even the complete ceremony of promotion to the seventh level was secretly attempted twice, but both times ended in failure.

After all, the zombies' stiffness appears in all aspects, which makes it quite difficult for a mage to become one.

Well.
Selena has been very hardworking recently and is still the main earner, so she deserves some reward.

Rhodes did not hesitate and took out a spirit seed from his magic bag.

The zombie's eyes widened instantly, and even the spell that blocked emotions in his body became ineffective, and he looked obviously shocked.

"Spirit Seed??!"

"Will it improve your current situation?"

"Yes! Absolutely!"

Rhodes blinked at her and made a gesture to silence her.

"Then you can have it. Be careful not to tell anyone. The girl in the forest is only for you."

"."

Selina returned to her expressionless face. "Don't worry, Boss Rhodes. I understand. Even if I have to go to the Claw Valley Mountains for duty, I won't reduce the number of magic ring missions I need every day."

Facing such a sensible Selina, Rhode couldn't help laughing: "Nonsense, I didn't mean that. I'm just concerned about your health. But if you insist on going to work, I can't stop you, hahahaha——"

The zombie girl snorted and sneered.

He took the spiritual seed and threw it into his mouth without hesitation.

[Selina's obedience to you +7, current obedience: 52]

[Obedience reaches 52, unlocking shared skills with Selina]

【Start random drawing.】

【Successful extraction】

【Shared Skill: Power Release】

[Details: Zombies' immortality allows them to use their muscles more recklessly, leading them to find more violent ways to release their power. This skill can free all muscles in the body, increasing their strength dozens of times. Note that the current upper limit on strength released after a limb loses its basic function is 1800%.]

Seeing this skill, Rhodes was also stunned for a moment.

He never expected to get such a shared skill for melee combat from a zombie mage.

but
Another killer skill!
Rhodes couldn't help but rub Selina's face.

Uh. It's hard and cold, not comfortable at all. Forget it.

The zombie girl's face was rubbed by him, but her eyes were still dead. But she didn't know if it was an illusion, but her vision seemed to be vague.
