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

Chapter 469: Instructions and Dragon Slaying Commission

"Alas, it was the kindhearted forest ranger Rod who let you stay here. The girls in the forest are all his. Don't be impulsive."

"I don't care who that green-skinned orc is! She nearly beat my soul to pieces! How could I have any dignity if I didn't settle the score with her? And as for Rhodes, I'll go find him after I defeat the orcs!"

Say it.

Rhodes felt the spiritual fluctuations coming from inside, and the mushroom man Scarlett's perception became blurred and scattered in an instant.

It is [Sporeization].

After a while, a large cloud of light green spores flew out from the entrance of the cave, and went straight into the distance without even seeing Rhodes.

Ona, the rabbit-man who had chased after them, looked annoyed.

Seeing Rhodes at the cave entrance again, he was stunned for a moment.

Then a smile instantly broke out on the cute little face with wheat-colored skin.

"Rod, you're back."

"Just arrived last night."

Rhodes also answered with a smile.

After simple greetings.

The two came to the magic wooden house in the cave.

Ona poured him a cup of mushroom tea that was grown here in an ecological way.

There was an apology on his face.

"Sorry, a few days ago, something urgent happened at the Magic Control Alliance, so I had to go back. I didn't expect Scarlett's soul to heal faster than expected, so she slipped away and even got into a fight with Amy."

"It's okay, it's normal to fight and play around. Is it an urgent matter for the Magic Control Union? Is there something happening on the mainland again?"

There have been many major events recently.

Rhodes felt a little stressed.

"No, it was Lady Yulia who sent a blood clone back from Purgatory and instructed me on some things."

Ona's expression was a little unnatural.

She also thought that the content of this instruction was something important, after all, it was Lady Julia who came back from Purgatory to tell her.

But when she returned to Magic Control Union, she found out that it was because the adults had taken a fancy to the new skin care products of the famous brand "Chenxi Magic Face" and came back specifically to tell her to buy them.

Now when I think about it in front of Rhodes, I feel inexplicably ashamed.

Rhode also noticed that she was a little embarrassed, so he was very considerate and didn't ask any further questions.

"By the way, Rhodes, Lady Yulia asked me to give this to you."

The bunny girl handed over a crimson magic stone.

For me?
Rhode immediately recalled the tip from his recently acquired [Yulia's Blood Explosion]: 'This skill will attract the attention of 'Vampire King Yulia'.'

It's only a matter of time before they come to you.

Ona added, "Also, Lady Yulia said your star is shielded by psychic powers, so she can't contact you. Please remove the psychic shield and use this magic stone."

Shielding of psionic powers.

That was the ability of the Mind Flayer Hart, and that was why Rhodes insisted on staying with him even though he knew he was inherently cruel.

It looks good now.

Even the long-famous top-level combat power vampire king Yulia has an effect.

"Well, I'll tell you what I can do when I have time. Isn't it possible for a psychic mage to do this kind of mind shielding?"

Ona shook her head.

His face was a little helpless: "Generally speaking, the spiritual consciousness of living things is divided into two levels, one is the surface consciousness, and the other is the deep consciousness. The vast majority of spiritual spells are used in the form of affecting the surface consciousness.

The mind flayers' psionic powers are a bit different. Before the supervolcano erupted, they lived in an isolated labyrinth and had never been exposed to spirituality. They actually use their own psionic energy, so it is very difficult to imitate.

"Like This."

Rhodes nodded.

According to the nature of the mage.

In other words, the Mind Flayer has only been on the continent for a short time. Once more living creatures are captured and disassembled for further study, it's almost certain that corresponding spells will emerge.

The two chatted for a while.

Being alone with a man and a woman, Rhodes didn't feel comfortable staying there for too long.

Then he said goodbye.

Ona held the cup in both hands and blew on the steaming mushroom tea.

After taking a light sip, she sent him out of the cave.

Before leaving, he suddenly called him:
"I almost forgot. I remember you, Rhode, issued a dragon-slaying commission in the Magic Control Union. It seems there's been a response. Remember to take some time to check it out."

Rhodes' eyes lit up.

Anyway, I just came back from a business trip to Axe Beach, and I couldn’t find anything to do for a while.

Rhode simply spent another sum of money to transfer to the Magic Control Union.

Just as Ona said, someone left a message for the dragon slaying commission.

The other party claimed to be the Blizzard Mercenary Group and explained that they needed to send someone to investigate the scene first. They hoped that Rhodes would leave his address or something.

Although I don't quite understand why some people in the Magic Control League's field team would call themselves a mercenary group.

However, Rhodes was too lazy to care about it. He left his contact information and address in the dwarf's [Heart of Locke] commission record and retreated directly.

I didn't expect the other party to be so efficient.

Early the next morning.

After another night of tossing and turning in the brothel, the zombie Penny was the first to get up.

She drowsily pulled the master's finger out of her mouth and found Rod's face on the messy bed.
I couldn't help myself and kissed her several times, while saying that the ghoul defense line had discovered that there were visitors to the forest.

As soon as he finished speaking, he fell asleep again with his lips kissed.

It’s not that the forest defenses were lax, but her ghouls sensed that the newcomers had no ill intentions.

Rod woke up and was a little scared when he saw Penny's beautiful face, as pale as a death, biting him.

I also heard about the visitor to the forest.

He struggled to get out of the bed where her body was lying, put on his clothes with the help of Yuna, and rushed over to greet her.

Sure enough, I saw three outsiders being stopped outside by Penny's zombies.

Rhodes took a closer look and exclaimed slightly:

"Crocodile man?"

One of the three was a muscular, tall crocodile-headed man, wearing only a skirt armor, revealing a domineering and hard scale armor.

The other two are a man and a woman, both human, and there is nothing special about them.

None of the three were armed, and two Quartz Town sheriffs were watching them from behind with nervous expressions.

Recently, Quartz Town has chosen to temporarily stop accepting foreign populations due to the Coral Bay attack, so all unfamiliar faces will be treated with caution and surveillance.

I guess these three people said they were here to look for Rhodes, and the sheriffs didn't dare to let them go for fear of delaying them, but they had to follow them.

Seeing Rhodes really coming over, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you for your hard work. When you have time, ask David to come drink with you."

Rhodes smiled at the two sheriffs who were familiar but whose names he couldn't remember.

They smiled and said hello, then turned around and went back to Quartz Town.

"Mr. Rhodes."

The crocodile man seemed to be the leader of the three and called himself Jeroen.

He took the initiative to shake hands with Rhodes and introduced his two subordinates one by one. His words and actions were elegant and refined, which did not match his appearance.

"I'm the survey representative and leader of the Blizzard Mercenary Group. We're already familiar with most of the situation in Dusk Hills. This time, we're mainly here to conduct a thorough investigation."

"I understand. It's better to be cautious."

"Mr. Rhodes is a straightforward person, so I will be more direct. The estimated cost of this commission is three million gold Aarons."
