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

Chapter 518: Enchantment and Blood Drops

So?

What's next?
Rhodes remained outside, unmoved.

There are simply too many coincidences in this adventure commission.

It's obvious that this is human operation.

But why?
Was it because of Rhode's joining? Or was it coincidence? Or was it just the way this adventure team had always been?
It’s probably not because of his joining.

Judging from the current battle results, only the elf Callister has seen through the camouflage field.

The rest of the time the effect is maximized.

The problem now is to figure out who the other party is.

Rhodes glanced at the plant in the cave.

The knowledgeable Elf Miss Calliste described its appearance in the Chain of Far Words.

The main reason is that I’m afraid that something might happen if Cecilia lies in the miasma for too long.

[Calliste: 'Soul-Loving Grass', a plant that grows deep in the Underdark. When stimulated, the miasma it releases has a strong hallucinogenic and coma-inducing effect. The Dark Elves like to use it for interrogations or assassinations. They believe this plant is a gift from the Spider Queen, Lolth.]

Okay.

It's a dark elf.

It is directly related to Coral Bay, and further related to it is the issue of Cecilia's bloodline node.

Hmm. When was her identity exposed?

[Rod: Is it possible to grow on the surface?]

[Calister: Natural growth is impossible, but artificial cultivation with magic can achieve it. Any trouble?]

Calliste rarely expressed this concern directly.

Most of them use the phrase "where are you getting into trouble again" to directly challenge others and indirectly express their concerns.

The old arrogant one.

This is the situation now.

Obviously, this was the result of the "brooch transaction" incident two days ago.

Look, even the cold elf can’t stand the care and consideration of Aaron, who is worth two million gold.

When questioned, Rhodes did not hide anything and directly explained the current situation.

【Calliste: I'll be there now.】

[Rod: Aren't you going to research a ritual to deal with the Purgatory Passage?]

【Calister: Who do you think I am? This ritual can't stop me.】

At this time, the cold and arrogant elf lady did not want to let a certain forest ranger know that after the "brooch transaction", she was in a good mood, her thoughts were unobstructed, and she broke through several difficulties in succession. Even the preliminary ritual structure was completed, and it was only a matter of testing.

About ten minutes later.

The elf Callister successfully reunited with him.

It just so happened that neither of them had time to say hello.

Just then, I saw one of the three unconscious people in the cave turn over, cover his head and sit up.

Harrison, the mediocre rookie mage.

"How can this soul-bewitching grass be so powerful? It's still effective even if I take the antidote beforehand. Damn it."

"."

He looked at the two unconscious women on the ground, then left the cave and looked around.

After confirming that no one is around, quickly return and take out the tools for refining magic potions, such as the mortar, pestle, crucible, and filter.

The materials are herbs, minerals, monster tissues and physical fragments of some elements.

Among them, there was one thing that looked most familiar to Rhodes.

A red spherical jadeite, with a hint of blood wandering back and forth in the center.

"There are several drops of Lilith's physical blood among the treasures in your dragon's vault. It is said that the ancestors of the succubus secretly learned the skills of using blood from the vampire king Julia, so that their blood drops can forcibly enhance the effect of the charm." said the elf lady.

"Will it work for Terry?"

Even though we are still in the Cold War.

However, when Rhodes encountered this kind of thing, he immediately thought of her.

Callister glanced at him coldly. "If you want her to charm you and take over, you can try giving it to her. Unlike the Lilith bloodline of the Venna Overlord at Axe Beach, the physical blood drop is a one-time item, once used, it's gone."

Ok.

but
He had previously discovered special aphrodisiac mushrooms in the cave of the fungus man Scarlett, which triggered the advancement of the higher-level skill [Enchanting Body Fluids].

Maybe this drop of physical blood is useful?
Immediately.

Rhode took out a drop of Lilith's physical blood from his magic bag and began to dig.

['Charming Body Fluid' senses special charming particles]

Current progress: 2.7%↑

Oh! Sure!

The progress did not stop there and is still slowly increasing.

And inside the cave.

Harrison took out a test tube, which contained bright red blood that glowed faintly.

He fused it with drops of Lilith's physical blood and smelted them in a boiling crucible.

Not a moment longer.

The magic potion was successfully made.

He scooped it out, came to Cecilia's side, and muttered with disgust: "Damn, it smells like sulfur, it stinks!"

Rhodes frowned and was about to take action.

But Callister grabbed her.

"That's not a poison, but a latent charm. Its main function is to make Cecilia fall under the charm of the owner of that drop of fluorescent blood. The potion is of very low effectiveness and average quality. It's a chronic poison that accumulates slowly."

She watched the medicine refining process from beginning to end and had a very good understanding of the potion.

As for the owner of the fluorescent blood
Because the dark elves have lived in the Underdark for a long time, their blood has somehow evolved to glow slightly fluorescent.

There are other races that have this kind of blood, but it doesn’t matter. Now this situation can only be Coral Bay and his people.

"The enemy is secretive, while we are clear. Since we now clearly know their methods, we might as well be patient and think of countermeasures. It is better than exposing them and letting them launch even more covert plots."

"Do not."

Rhodes had a cold face and his eyes were filled with anger.

"I cannot allow the younger generation entrusted to me by my friends to fall into danger."

talking.

He had already broken the lurking spell and was striding towards the cave.

Rhodes did not cover up the sound of his footsteps at all.

Harrison inside was suddenly startled, and his hand holding the potion trembled.

I turned around and saw that it was 'Rogerf' and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Roger! You're okay! I just happened to make some healing potions for Cecilia and Alia."

As he said this, he put his other hand behind his back and secretly activated the magic ring hidden in his hand.

Rhodes had a cold face.

Don’t worry about it, just raise your hand and grab the air.

[Judian's Ice Blade Domain] instantly condensed an ice spear in mid-air and shot out suddenly.

The ice spear directly pierced Harrison's shoulder, who was looking stunned.

The barb on the gun handle got stuck in his shoulder blade, pinning him to the rock wall behind him.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!"

Heart-rending screams.

"Like being a lackey of the dark elves?"

"Nothing. What are you talking about—"

Rhodes walked forward slowly and twisted his arm with his vise-like palm.

There was another scream.

Harrison began to beg for mercy and began to explain what he had done.

It's nothing more than being tempted by money and unable to withstand the graceful body of the dark elf.

never mind.

The first point of being a decent human being is to have double standards, and your reasons have nothing to do with me.

Harrison was crying with snot and tears all over his face.

The intense pain almost brought his thoughts to a standstill. He couldn't understand why the weak Rogerv suddenly burst out with such unmatched strength.

Just as he couldn't understand why his head became a cannonball from the resentment cannon when he was still conscious.

He won't die so easily.
