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

Chapter 337 Awareness
Demia couldn't help but smile, not knowing whether she was laughing at the mushroom man or at the beautiful sister Rhodes had just called her.

"You've become stronger, Rod."

Rhodes waved his hand, dismissing it.

The strength of the sixth level is limited after all, and it will be more clear after he is promoted to the seventh level.

"Myconids aren't afraid of lycanthropy, so they should be quite useful here. You should make good use of them first. I need to give Penny two days off. She hasn't had a break in almost two weeks. Even a ghoul wouldn't be able to endure that."

Demia nodded.

The ghouls' undead army did make great contributions during this period.

Especially when the defense line moved forward, the conditions and branches of the mountain roads became more and more complicated. The numerical advantage and fearlessness of death of the Undead Legion saved them many unnecessary sacrifices.

Even now, the legion led by Penny is still carrying out cleanup operations on the front lines.

"The fungus man Toru in the cell. I followed your advice and sealed the outlet where his spores are released. Last night, I saw that he was already anxious and worried. I'm afraid we'll be able to catch him and put him to work soon."

Seeing all the positive development trends, Rhodes couldn't help but smile.

The two chatted about the defense line, and then turned to the outside population in Quartz Town.

The sudden increase in population may have reached the limit of what Quartz Town can accommodate, and the number is still rising. At the same time, it has brought about problems such as public security, economy, and environment that cannot be underestimated.

The key issue is employment. Without employment, there will be no money. Without money, it is hard to say what these outsiders who lack local responsibility will do.

The previous development of the farmland area relieved this pressure, as did the opening of the new Frank Street.

Rod plans to open Henry Farm to recruit workers.

Penny's zombie herding and breeding plan has never been effective, so she just gave it up, but she and the banshee Chris will still be in charge of the management.

In fact, it’s right to think about it.

Undead creatures like ghouls and skeletons don't have high intelligence. It's okay for them to just swing a hoe and place feed, but a farm requires more than just these simple guys. It's better to hire an experienced person.

In fact, this influx of foreign population does have some benefits. At least it can absorb some jobs and personnel that Quartz Town did not have before.

But this period of pain may be longer.

The city hall is actually already controlling the population, but the number of basic security personnel is seriously insufficient.

I hope there will be some results in the future.

"ha----"

As he was talking, Rhodes yawned loudly.

Once Terry fell asleep, she didn't want to wake up and was snoring in Shadow's sleep.

"Did I just wake you up from your lunch break?"

"I just want to take a nap when I accidentally relax."

"Feel sorry."

Demia apologized.

She glanced back and saw a girl whose lower body was a spider at the edge of the forest.

The girl watched them from afar, mainly watching Rhodes, without moving.

I think her name is Yuna?

Sharon said it was a spider elf rescued from the Terror Field.

Rhodes followed her gaze and looked back, and saw the spider-like girl bowing to him from afar.

"Why are you standing so far away?"

Beckon her over.

Yuna is currently the most obedient girl in the forest, and she really follows through on her promise to be a slave.

As soon as she saw Rhodes waving, she immediately rushed over here.

The eight spiders moved in a very regular rhythm, and at a fairly fast speed.

"Her name is Yuna?"

"Yeah, she's a pretty good girl."

Demia's face looked a little strange, and she said, "There are too many girls in the forest, Rod. You have to consider Sharon's feelings."

".You knew already?"

Rhodes was neither embarrassed nor surprised.

Honestly, Sharon, the dog-man girl, wasn't good at hiding her feelings. Many times, she looked at Rhode with fiery, unbridled eyes, which anyone could see.

"That day, um... the day you guys reshaped my magic path. I actually woke up a few times during the process and saw you and Sharon... replenishing your magic..."

Behind the veil of the hat brim, Demiyan's chubby face turned pink.

"Forehead"

"And before that, you came to visit me once, and I half-dazedly heard you and Sharon doing that for a long time in front of my door."

Ok.

It is indeed a bit embarrassing to be caught having intimate interactions in front of someone else's room.

Rhodes laughed dryly.

"Feel sorry."

"It's okay. I don't mind. What I mean is, please take it easy next time. As Sharon's good friend, I don't want you to let her down."

"Don't worry, I'm serious about Sharon."

I'm serious about all girls.

Rhodes added in his heart.

Hearing this, Demia felt dazed for a moment, as if there was a layer of cotton in his chest, which didn't block his breathing, but made it difficult for him to breathe.

Fortunately, her face was covered by a veil, otherwise Rhodes would definitely notice the stiff smile on her face.

The topic came to an abrupt end here.

The two did not talk again.

Rhodes took Yuna to check the waterway defense line.

The isolation field of the elf Callister was established three days ago. It was a blue barrier with complex spell patterns.

It will not block the flow of river water and can isolate debris.

After that, you just need to regularly remove the beast-like corpses from the isolation field.

But.

This force field does not have the function of filtering the beastly blood. According to Callister, the most commonly used filtering spell in the current spell system is the [Liquid Filter Bubble], which is generally used in spell experiments and magic potion making.

However, this type of filter bubble spell is very fragile and slow. It often takes five minutes to remove impurities from a 1,000 ml liquid.

The Hansen River here has a high-altitude flow and is very turbulent.

Even if Callister could build a [liquid filtration bubble] covering the entire river channel, it would be completely unable to withstand the impact and flow rate of the river water.

The mages are currently discussing and looking for a better solution.

Callister was not among them, as she had returned to the forest to prepare for the ceremony to advance to the seventh level.

"Look, that body."

Rhodes leaned against the edge of the cliff and pointed to the corpse behind the isolation field to Yuna.

Both of them possess the spiritual skill of [Spider Climbing], which allows them to walk on cliffs as if on flat ground.

"Remember the [Mage's Hand]? Lift up the corpse and purify it."

"As ordered."

Yuna has the original spiritual skill of [High Concentration], so she will definitely be a good mage.

But for some reason, she had never learned any magic.

Even the basic skill [Hand of the Mage] was taught by Rhodes.

The spider elf struggled to lift the giant corpse, and its delicate little face wrinkled.

After placing the body on a relatively flat ground, she began the purification technique, which she was not very skilled at.

It's okay.

If you say it for the first time, it's quite clear.

"I'll be patrolling the area from time to time for a while. You can follow me and help me."

Hearing this, Yuna looked up at her master in surprise, her eyes filled with tears, and she actually began to cry pitifully.
