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

Chapter 681 Tomb and Prophecy
"This is the territory of the Guresh clan! Those who come here, leave immediately!"

The target's burial site was still in soft quicksand. Several mages were solidifying a portion of the ground into compacted sand and gravel blocks, and building an arch-shaped passageway downwards.

Elite land-dwelling Naga of the clan named Guresh surrounded the entrance.

It is still predominantly female, with a small number of men.

The crimson half-body armor covered the upper body from head to toe, making it impossible to see the face.

It was from the long hair peeking out from under their helmets and the sound of their voices that Rod realized their gender.

Facing the fierce warriors on the ground who drew their guns and knives as a warning.

Eve, who was adept at using others' power to intimidate and show off, naturally had no intention of backing down.

Thanks to the [Radiant Scales] she had previously obtained through spiritual growth, her entire body shone with a dazzling array of colorful light.

Behind them, blue and white soul mist emanated again.

The battle spirit of the ancient white dragon quickly took shape and roared furiously in mid-air.

"Roar!!!"

The overwhelming roar of the dragon instantly terrified the land-dwelling Naga.

"A dragon?! It's a dragon?"

"How could there be a giant dragon in the Mirror Desert?! What's going on?!"

"Run away!"

Beast-like races have an innate fear of dragons, and were immediately thrown into panic.

They retreated in droves, some even throwing down their weapons and fleeing in panic.

"Don't panic! Calm down! How could something from the White Dragon Frost Zone come to the desert! That's the battle spirit of a dragon!"

The leading land-based Naga wore even more magnificent armor and were equally powerful.

She roared and lashed her long whip at the fleeing man, tearing through his armor and leaving him with gaping wounds.

"Princess Eve of the Braar Clan? I've long heard that you've acquired the heretical method of using the Battle Soul, I didn't expect it to be true."

"evil ways?"

Eve laughed wildly, "The matter of spiritual arts has always been about whether it works or not. There's no such thing as a righteous path or an evil path. It's utterly ridiculous!"

The leader, enraged, laughed and said, "Fine, fine, then I'll see what you've got."

talking.

As she reached out, a surge of spiritual mist appeared, forming an enlarged version of herself that charged fiercely towards Eve.

The two Nagas collided, one above the other.

In an instant, a surge of air erupted.

The impact created a giant cavity effect, with loose yellow sand sweeping backward like a raging torrent.

In an instant, the battlefield was enveloped in a rolling yellow light.

Eve is only at the seventh rank, and she hasn't been watered by Rhodes as many times as the other girls.

However, he had consumed a spirit seed, and his [Battle Soul Collision] skill had reached +2, plus he possessed an excellent spiritual spell like [Sun's Blessing].

—[Details: When under the sun, strength, speed, and physical constitution will be greatly enhanced, and affinity for fire and light elements will increase. Bathing in sunlight will be beneficial for spiritual growth.]

It's impossible for us to lose.

A painful scream.

The leading land-based Naga fell like a kite with a broken string.

Then came Eve's maniacal laughter as she floated in the air, her scales gleaming like the sun.

Seeing this, her subordinates were filled with admiration, respect, and excitement, cheering loudly. Some even shouted things like, "Lady Eve is the sun of the Mirror Desert."

The soldiers below, including Guresh, paled again, astonished by Eve's strength.

"Hahahaha—I'm fucking invincible! Come on! Let's kill them all together!"

Looking at the guy in mid-air, Terry couldn't help but laugh out loud:
"The way this stinky snake acts so smug is just like you, Master."

"Nonsense, your master is a respectable person and would never say such arrogant things."

Rhodes, supporting himself with the sword at his waist, slowly landed.

He disdained to act personally; a ring of red spiritual energy rapidly expanded from the yellow sand beneath his feet, instantly engulfing the entire Guraysh clan. [Aura of Fear]

In an instant, their movements froze, and their faces turned deathly pale.

The leader was defeated, shocked by the dragon's roar, and then crushed by Rhodes' [Fear Aura]. It would be a miracle if he could withstand it.

Eve led her men down below and routed them in less than five minutes.

"Hahahaha—weak, frail, and weak! Such a Jingmo belongs to me alone!"

Miss Naga got carried away, her confidence from crushing noobs started to rant and rave.

"furious!"

A roar suddenly erupted in mid-air.

Immediately afterward, a withered, aged land-dwelling Naga appeared from the tomb entrance and punched Eve in the back with incredible speed.

Eve screamed and was sent flying backward.

Just as she was about to crash face-first into the yellow sand, a shadow caught her and helped her right herself, preventing her from falling in front of the soldiers in a humiliating manner.

Its back's [Radiant Scales] exploded with light spots, creating a huge gap.

She looked up angrily at Rod not far away.

Why didn't that jerk catch me?!
Rhodes laughed and said, "She's only a high-level seventh-tier fighter. You should be able to beat her."

"But I'm only a first-dan!"

"I beat an eighth-tier player when I was a beginner."

"Do you think everyone is a monster like you?!"

The old woman Naga was thin and frail, but the battle spirit behind her was in its prime, rising like fire.

"We were just wondering how to deal with your mother, Priestess Lillian, and you dare to invade with such a small force! This is a golden opportunity! Princess Eve, my twelve sons admire your beauty and invite you to the Guresh Clan for a chat!"

"Bullshit! A bunch of grotesque people think they can touch me?"

"Fellow colleagues, what are we waiting for? Capture this woman alive! That Lillian woman will be hesitant to act rashly, and the territory of the Blar clan will be ours for the taking."

Hua Hua Hua——

Four more figures leaped out of the desert, all of them high-level seventh-tier cultivators.

Mirror Desert is not large. Eve's mother, Lillian, is only at the peak of the seventh rank as a priest. There are five high-level seventh-rank members, which proves that the Gulaish Clan is capable of dominating Mirror Desert. So why is it still suppressed by the Blar Clan?
Eve's face showed astonishment: "How is this possible? You have that kind of power?"

"Hehehe, you'll know once you've tried it."

A beam of fire as thick as a wrist suddenly pierced through the old woman's head, leaving behind a crimson mark of melting flesh that quickly oxidized and turned black. Her words came to an abrupt halt.

The smug smile on his face froze, and it didn't fade until he collapsed limply.

The other four Nagas looked at Rhodes, who was not far away, with panic, as if they had seen a ghost.

The charred eyeball was squeezed out of the palm, but the wisps of smoke still rose upwards.

Rhodes's pupils flashed with an invisible domain, then he smiled: "Oh? An external force has forcibly elevated your rank within you, interesting."

Eve, who only ever wins when things are going her way, laughed again: "You're all surrounded by me all by myself."
.
It didn't take much effort to deal with four high-level seventh-rank fighters.

The sandstorms in Jingmo were quite strong. In the blink of an eye, the blood sank into the loose yellow sand and disappeared, covering the corpses on the ground with a thin yellow veil.

Rod ignored Eve's postwar speech to her men, saying it was a perfect opportunity to solidify authority, boost morale, and strengthen loyalty.

pat-

He stood before the arched entrance to the tomb, gazing down the dark, chilly staircase into the depths.

I tried out the new skill.

['Whispers of the Galaxy' has been triggered]

Immediately, the message appeared on the panel that Rhodes had obtained the only two shared prophecy skills from Xiao Ke.

at the same time.

Yellow gravel climbed up the dark rock stairs, gradually gathering into an incomprehensible sentence on the uneven surface.

—'The opportunity to become a god is within easy reach.'
