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

Chapter 461 Substitution
The celebration banquet was forced to be suspended.

The brilliant fire in the sky alarmed the guards of Waterdeep, and soon a large number of people surrounded the city.

Waterdeep is truly one of the top pearl-class cities, and its area is far larger than that of Windwind, Jade City, Blazing City and Axe Strand combined.

A large area also means more soldiers and guards are needed, and security management is troublesome.

Waterdeep still does a good job in this regard.

The guards who came to investigate were organized into teams, and each team had at least two mages. Although their rank was not high, the mages' skills could often save them a lot of trouble.

This is not.

At first, many people thought that Rhodes was here to cause trouble, or guessed that Rhodes was a fanatical fan of Leila Xingyu.

It wasn't until the mages used the lie detector to question the dusty dragon slayers outside the tavern that they figured out the whole thing in less than half an hour.

Fortunately, there were many skilled players in the audience, and they all noticed the abnormality of the crystal ball, but it was just too sudden for them to react.

Since it has nothing to do with them.

Moreover, these were a group of warriors who had just defeated a dragon. The officials of Waterdeep did not want to cause trouble and quickly let them leave.

When Rhodes and the halfling Lily heard the guards start to release people, they were too lazy to stay any longer and walked along the street together.

"Another green dragon?"

Lily's face was serious.

Rhodes did not hide anything and told everything he saw.

But unfortunately, everyone was skeptical.

They were probably questioning the fact that as a spiritual warrior, Rhodes could not only see through the prying spells, but could also counterattack the spells, thus achieving the effect of spell reversal.

This kind of operation would be difficult to perform even for a serious wizard.

Regarding what he saw, the official mage put forward another on-site judgment, that is, it was an emergency illusion created by the crystal ball to avoid being discovered.

Of course, the confession that there was another green dragon spying on him would also be written down and handed over to more professional people to make the judgment.

but.

The halfling Lily believed him immediately.

"Is it the season for dragons to be active recently? I've seen them many times recently."

Rhodes didn't pay much attention to it. He looked at the shops on the street that either lit up dwarven lamps or hired light spirits for lighting, wondering if there were any specialties he could buy back for the girls.

The explosion did not have a big impact on the local people, and as the alert was lifted, the place quickly became lively again.

"That's not the case. Perhaps it's a pity that it's caused by the changes in the alien space, but I'm not a wizard who's good at exploring alien spaces."

Unlike the guy who is obsessed with cosmic creatures, Lily is obviously the type who focuses more on the real dimension.

While talking.

The two stopped in front of a stall selling grilled snake, chicken and egg custard.

Lily ordered the sea salt flavor, while Rhodes, who had a strong taste, ordered the spicy flavor with added numbing and sour flavors.

The halfling girl picked out the egg yolk with a wooden fork and said:

"Waterdeep has been in trouble these days. Having just defeated one green dragon, they're now being targeted by another."

"Well, I'm afraid it won't be long before it sets its sights on Waterdeep. The magic of the crystal ball is entwined with the backdrop of the stage. It'll take at least a year."

Rhodes scooped out a large mouthful of snake-cockatrice egg custard and put it into his mouth.

Wow, it’s not spicy at all, just sour and numb.

It seems the chili peppers from the Sword Coast aren't very potent.

But it was smooth enough, even smoother than Vivian's face, and he quite liked it.

"Oh? More than a year?" Lily seemed to have suddenly thought of something and fell into deep thought.

"what happened?"

"Something seems a little off, Rhode. What are the characteristics of the green dragon you saw just now?"

"Characteristics? I haven't seen many living green dragons. Oh, it always seems to be chewing something."

Lily's expression suddenly changed.

After a while, he let out a dejected sigh.

The excitement of slaying the dragon that had been maintained just now disappeared in an instant.

"Yes, no wonder I always felt that the guys I've been fighting these days were a little young." She smiled bitterly. "To be honest, Rhode, I think today's Green Dragon is just a scapegoat. The real culprit of that fraud case, the guy you discovered, is probably still gloating over it behind the scenes."

Rhodes was also stunned for a moment. He didn't expect such a development.

"Well, what are you going to do? Keep looking for it?"

"No, that guy is extremely cunning. He's seen our methods before, and he was discovered again today. He definitely won't show up again easily. You can tell by the way he immediately detonated the crystal ball that was spying on him."

She sighed, "I'll tell my brothers in the Heroic Alliance about this. It's a shame, the Heroic Alliance needed this incident to gain a firm foothold in Waterdeep. Now that the main culprit has escaped, and Green Dragon has died in his place, it will have a significant impact on us."

"Can't you just not say it?"

Rhodes inexplicably felt that he had done something bad with good intentions.

Lily shook her head. "We're also chasing fame, but we won't let the truth be buried. Otherwise, it would be unfair and irresponsible to the victims of the fraud, and it would also be hard on us."

"I always feel sorry."

The girl smiled coolly: "Why should I apologize? I should thank you for helping us find the truth!"

As she said this, she placed the wooden fork on the half-eaten snake, chicken, beast and egg custard, and it seemed that she didn't intend to eat anymore.

Halflings don't have big appetites.

Rhodes leaned over and said, "Can't finish it? Can you give it to me?"

"what?"

The night wind was blowing and I had just had a drink.

The halfling's cute, round face flushed red, and he was a little flustered: "But I've eaten."

"It's okay, don't waste it."

"Then take it if you want."

"Thank you."

Rhodes didn't care and took it carelessly, swallowing it all in two or three bites.

Lily was a little embarrassed.

This halfling girl is actually more like a boy. There is no romantic element in her heart, or it has not yet been discovered.

Looking at his lips at this moment, I felt a strange feeling in my heart that I had never felt before.

"So delicious?"

"Not bad. Quartz Town doesn't have eggs like this. It's a novelty to eat."

"Actually, I can also make snake-cockatrice egg custard, but it's the regular soy sauce flavor. If you like, I can try making it for you."

"Really? Then I'll buy some more snake-cockatrice eggs and make them for me a few more times when we get back to Quartz Town."

Lily was amused: "I'm not your cook."

Just talking.

Terry jumped out from the shadows. She had been sleeping in the shadows because she felt dizzy from eating.

Seeing Lily, she was stunned for a moment and smiled:

"Yo, Juru shorty."

"."

The halfling girl's mouth twitched.

Rhodes gave Terry a slap on the face. She groaned and hugged his arm in grievance.

"I'm sorry I'm hungry, Master."

"We've fed him enough for today, let's wait until tomorrow."

"Ah? Don't do that~~"

Lily laughed and teased, "Rod, you're the first person I've ever seen who has raised a succubus by yourself for half a year."

Rhodes laughed heartily, feeling quite pleased and proud.

Just as I was about to speak, I heard someone calling from behind.

Turning around, he saw the agent of the big star Cloud Elf Leila Xingyu, who was waving at Rhodes breathlessly.

It looked like they were chasing from behind.
