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

Chapter 759 Reflections and Brass

The dark clouds that had been gathering for a whole day burst open after this deafening explosion.

A torrential downpour began.

A green mushroom cloud rose into the sky over the city, only to be dispersed by the rain.

Dust and raindrops clung together, making the entire square hazy.

The entire conference hall no longer exists.

All that remained was a huge, deep pit burning with eerie green flames.

And the tall figure of the man slowly emerging from the ashes and ruins.

Behind him were countless swirling, wailing spirits; behind the man, countless resentments accumulated.

Roland Jefferson, the Thunderblade, coughed up a mouthful of blood.

With a cold expression, he ripped off his tattered armor, revealing his muscular body.

His body, as if cast in steel, was covered with gruesome sword wounds.

The muscles slowly repair themselves as they move.

On the ground, the extremely flamboyant, tall, handsome man with his hair slicked back remained calm and unhurried, despite the searchlights and magical alarms blaring behind him.

For a while.

Roland Jefferson was lost in thought.

He glanced at Ravin Ashton, the former principal of Bahadur, who looked furious.

He secretly activated the communication device in his hand.

The target was a refined female mage with long, greyish-white hair, Zoya Jefferson, who was the female headmistress of the Royal Magic Academy in Radiant City and possessed considerable strength.

same.

Like him, this female mage could vaguely discern that she was not entirely aligned with the Ego Church.

[Dean Zoia, are you alright? Are you hurt?]

[Roland Jefferson? Why use a messenger? Heh, I'm doing alright, but you're in a bit of trouble.]

Zoeja Jefferson's voice suddenly faltered, then immediately shifted to a lighthearted and teasing tone.

Roland felt relieved and said:

To be honest, the forest ranger was far more capable than I had imagined. If I hadn't reacted quickly, I would have been dead by now.

[Oh, I thought his killer move was the Plague Domain, but I didn't expect his physical abilities to far surpass those of an eighth-tier cultivator.]

【Zoeya, is your spiritual creation still working?】

[I'm currently in isolation, oh dear~ what should I do? I'm completely focused on the Ego Cult, and not feeling monitored makes me so restless.]

Don't put on airs in front of me. You've been like this since you were a child; it makes me want to vomit.

[Hehehe—Trying to test me while you're about to throw up?]

In short, do you believe what that man said?

【Do not believe. 】

Then pretend I never said anything.

Roland cursed and immediately tried to cut off the transmission.

But the woman spoke again the next moment—

I don't believe this man, but I believe even less that Ego, who has slaughtered the remaining four cardinals and has this man's help, is what kind of pope hiding in hiding?

Above a towering clock tower in the northern district.

Against the backdrop of the cold rain and the increasingly strong night wind, the girls' figures, shrouded in [Dark Veil Robes], became even more difficult to discern.

"Huh? Sister Xiao Ke, there's a half-deer person next to Rod."

The little horse's eyes gleamed with a faint red light.

Holding a short bow, he nocked an arrow as black as ink.

Arrows enhanced by Terry's Shadow Domain are not only difficult to trace, but also possess a certain power of shadow burst.

"What?! You damn pervert, didn't you say you only liked me?"

Xiao Ke said angrily, then suddenly realized she had let something slip.

Her face flushed slightly. "Business is more important. You know what kind of person Rhodes is. And neither does Cecilia."

The words were not finished.

A building in the distance behind suddenly exploded with a loud bang, bursting into flames.

Even heavy rain cannot be easily extinguished by the magical item, Blazing Glue.

Xiao Ke's two deer ears swayed, entwined with spiritual energy. She immediately revealed a gentle expression: "Sai Xier succeeded. Lady Hera went to intercept the ninth-rank troops who were on their way. The prophetic route of the reinforcements has been calculated, and obstacles will be set up along the way to hold them off for quite some time."

Bond blinked:
"Reinforcements from other districts are arriving soon. Should we kill them? They might not be members of the Igor Cult."

Xiao Ke's face darkened: "Bond, there's not much I can teach you. You can be kind, but you absolutely cannot be indecisive. For the sake of important people, we must be firm!"

"Tough. Understood!"

Bond laughed heartily, and a dozen arrows flew out of his short bow in quick succession.

Tracy, the giant squirrel perched on her shoulder, laughed along, pointing her tree branch knight sword: "Behold my magic sword!"

It seems he's mistaking the arrows shot by Bond for his own, which is quite childlike.

While maintaining her focus on casting spells, the witch Demia couldn't help but glance at the kind and shy half-deer man from the forest.

My image of her was slightly overturned.

"Yes, perhaps being more assertive wouldn't be bad."

Dimia narrowed his eyes, looking towards the familiar building in the northern district.

She spent her childhood there and was given high hopes.

Then, due to the eagerness to force growth, he developed a chronic condition of uncontrolled magic, lost all his talent, and was subjected to cold stares.

They watched as reinforcements arrived from the streets to provide assistance.

Without hesitation, the witch activated a legendary spell, deliberately extending its range to the building.
Rhodes stepped out through the ashes.

The smoke and dust receded like a tide, clearing a wide path.

He ran his hand through his hair and faced the surrounding group of ninth-rank cultivators with an aloof expression.

"Round two, you bugs."

By the way, Rod also thought about this line for several minutes.

next moment.

A giant crystal head appeared in mid-air, and the purplish-black exploding decay spell [Announcement of the End] was instantly cast on the enemy.

"Are there any masters?"

"It's a curse of the treasure level. Kill the holder first!"

Someone just tried to fly and move.

Rhodes unleashed purple gravity magic with a single hand.

He directly pulled the other person firmly into his range.

Gravity well!
of course.

It's much more than that.

After refining the Shadow Sea at the [War Soul Workshop], Rhode learned that the mountains and ocean there were formed by a giant meteorite from ancient times.

This directly granted Rhodes the [Celestial Meteor Physique] and the [Gravity Domain].

With the added terrifying boost of [Blessing of the Ancient Tree of the Sky +10], it's enough to create an area from which they have no chance of escape.

The group of mages turned ashen-faced as they cast spells to resist the immense and terrifying gravity.

They really couldn't understand.

Why does a peak eighth-tier spiritual warrior possess such outrageous strength?

Chief Mage Gaius Morgan held a thick staff entwined with tree roots, his hunched figure exuding a suffocating calm.

"Plague Domain, Gravity Domain, a strange mental domain (Chastity Domain). Ranger Rhodes, each of them possesses strength surpassing the ninth rank, reaching the level of divine authority."

"If you think that our Radiant City is only this powerful, you are seriously underestimating Atheron."

Say so.

A hand, cracked like tree bark, emerged from the robe, revealing a magic stone in its palm.

Click!

The next moment, a guardian array covering the entire area flashed with light and suddenly unleashed a powerful suppressive force, making even the air thicken.

The intensity of the suppression caused even Rhodes to frown.

Simultaneously.

The earth is shaking.

At first, it was just a slight tremor, like muffled thunder coming from afar.

With a deafening tearing sound, the buildings of the sports field in the distance crumbled like fragile eggshells, and a huge brass hand burst out of the ground, its five fingers spread out, each joint thicker than an adult's body.

"Oh"
