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

Chapter 746 Battle and Sacrifice

The eerie green phosphorescent light swept across the surface of the Shadow Sea before quickly extinguishing.

The Scimitar Peaks mountain range acts as a natural barrier, embracing the Shadow Sea and the City of Shadows, and also shielding most of the sandstorms commonly seen in the Enoch Desert from the outside.

The Lord of the Ghost City was still pinned to the tower by the golden holy spear, scorched by the burning black flames.

This obviously causes great harm to the souls of the dead who have lost their physical bodies.

The noble Lord of the City of the Dead could only close his eyes and remain motionless, his face ashen as he desperately resisted this extremely ferocious treasure.

And inside the window to the left of where the city lord was nailed.

A graceful, beautiful, and elegantly dressed woman with her hair styled in an updo was thrown into a panic.

She leaned halfway out, terrified, trying to touch the holy spear on the city lord's chest.

But as black flames rose, she screamed in pain and could not get close.

But the deceased lady still seemed to love her husband dearly. After leaving the window for a moment, she was holding a steel gun that she had somehow found.

It laboriously hooked at the holy lance, again and again.

The sounds of battle from the sky and on the ground continue to be heard.

The former has an even greater spiritual impact.

The sounds of metal objects clashing, the dull thud of stone helmets, and the resounding clatter of horses' hooves echoed continuously.

The fragrant sweat on Lady Ghost's forehead clung to the ends of her hair.

She couldn't help but look up at the sky.

The human man who suddenly appeared easily suppressed two ninth-level beings!

Although I am very grateful to that human, the City of Shadows is isolated from the world, so where can I find any reinforcements?!

At this point, coming for help is simply a change from a tough, invading enemy to a seemingly mild-mannered enemy that is actually seizing even more territory.

"This is too much!"

The massive stone-helmeted ninth-tier knight named Jonas suddenly roared.

The giant horse beneath him burst forth with dazzling spiritual light, and he himself transformed into a shooting star, charging at incredible speed as he slammed into Rhodes, who was being entangled by old man Austin.

The force of the charge was incredibly fierce.

Rhodes, struck head-on, transformed into a phantom, dragging a dark shadow as he violently crashed through the walls of the Shadow City, scattering debris everywhere.

With undiminished force, he crashed into several more high-rise buildings, eventually heading straight for the tower where the Lady of the Dead was located.

The lady by the window was so frightened that she turned pale and screamed in panic.

Fortunately, most of the impact was dissipated by then.

He was embedded in the wall, and the tower only swayed slightly, shaking out a thin layer of dust.

Lady Ghost peeked out, her expression one of terror.

She didn't want this man to die easily; at least he could draw the firepower of those three ninth-level attackers.

puff--

Rod braced himself with both hands, and the compacted stones flew away, freeing him from his predicament.

"Ok?"

He saw the beautiful, undead lady by the window inside the tower, and his eyes lit up.

At this moment, in order to hold the physical steel gun, the undead lady had to stare at her spirit form, which seemed to be moving between the spirit form and the physical form.

His pale skin shimmered with a pearly sheen, his lips were a deep, rich red like aged wine, and his high nose bridge and sharp cheekbones outlined a cold and aloof profile.

But at this moment, he was in complete disarray.

The added confusion and hesitation, ironically, made him even more endearing, making people want to protect him.

She wore a dark velvet dress, the deep purple-black fabric embroidered with intricate silver thread patterns.

Beneath the high slit of her skirt, her long, slender legs, partially concealed by black spiderweb-patterned stockings, appeared both full and straight.

The cinched waist of the silver-bone corset accentuated her full curves.

The gemstone pendant hanging from her neck fell into her full cleavage, flustered and stuck up to one side, revealing her vitality and softness.

Rod gripped the roof with one hand, gave a salute, and said in the gentlest of voices:

"May I ask your name, beautiful lady?"

"Ah?" Lady of the Dead was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly said, "I am the wife of the Lord of the City of Shadows. We are willing to offer you a reward that will satisfy you, sir, for helping us drive away the foreign enemies!"

"Then I'll take you. My God, you are the most beautiful ghost I have ever seen."

Rhodes made it up on the spot.

His natural passivity and extremely high charm give him a significant advantage in conversations with the opposite sex.

In addition, there's the [White Ox Charm] which targets married women.

The city lord's wife was so moved by what she heard that her heart pounded and her limbs went numb.

She even began to fantasize inexplicably about eloping with the man in front of her on the grasslands, surrounded by cattle and sheep, leaving behind this barren Enook Desert.

"What nonsense are you spouting? Watch out!"

A silvery-white sword light suddenly swept over.

Without even looking, Rhodes raised his hand and swung his sword.

when! ! !
Scorching sparks flew everywhere.

The old commander Austin's wrinkled face was solemn, and the blood that suddenly splattered from his shoulder into his eyes did not recede at all.

"【Iron Crow Beak】".

The right arm holding the steel sword is blurred, and a super-fast thrust that is invisible to the naked eye is seen.

The sword tip emitted a white, gleaming light, piercing the tower completely in an instant.

Rhodes didn't budge, letting the object crash into the [Dragon Scale Technique] on his body.

But don't say it.

The old man's sword techniques are quite powerful; if the Dragon Scale Technique were below +17, it would probably have been easily surpassed.

But it's a pity.

With a level exceeding 20, almost reaching +23 and absorbing dragon scales, the [Dragon Scale Technique] seems to have undergone a qualitative change; you can't break its defense without some god-level skills or weapons.

Austin's expression changed as he looked at the tattered clothes and saw a strong, unharmed body.

They didn't even have time to retreat.

The man in front of her let out a wild laugh, and his black-gold longsword, imbued with a fierce, terrifying sharpness and spiritual power, slashed down.

"slightly!!!"

Jonas saddled his giant horse and roared, unleashing a powerful surge of energy. The greyish-white stone helmet was now squeezed between the two men.

The black and gold longsword struck the stone greatsword in his hand, slicing it in halfway with a hiss.

Jonas looked pained and, with Austin in tow, retreated to create distance.

He then immediately vomited a mouthful of blood.

The man's strength was like that of a ghost; even the two of them combined were not as tall as him.

Even if you completely block this sword strike, you'll still be shaken quite a bit.

"How long has it been since I've been this disheveled?"

Jonas spat out blood and foam, his face contorted in a grimace.

Austin gripped his trembling, aching wrist and asked coldly, "Who exactly are you?"

"Don't I have a registration number? Never mind."

Rhodes took a moment to pinch the city lord's wife's cheek, causing her to flush red.

Laughing, it floated away from the house on the tower.

He spread his arms wide: "I am Gorgon! The front part is forgotten, for I am an existence outside the rules! We, in the light, expose lies and challenge hypocrisy. The middle part is forgotten."

In short, we are the Knights of Light.

Who came up with these words?

After such a long time, it would be a miracle if he could remember.

Austin frowned, full of suspicion: "The Knights of Light? You've come for the Wings of Light? Fine. If you're so-called Knights of Light, you shouldn't be here to stop us!"

What is that old man saying?
Rod was puzzled, but he didn't say anything, keeping quiet with the air of a wise man.

Old man Austin continued, his tone turning colder: "The Lord of the City of Shadows is holding an evil sacrifice, intending to use this opportunity to communicate with another dimension and resurrect ancient gods. We have come here to take this opportunity to annihilate him!"
