Chapter 199: Resolution

"Is he dead?"

Rod looked at the 【Lust Points -892】 in the prompt and asked the elf Lady Kali.

Besides that, there was also a display of 【Greed Points +550】.

"I don't know if it's his bad luck or our good luck that we succeeded on the very first try."

Lady Kali said.

She clutched her abdomen, cut by the vortex of blades; her face was pale. Just as she tried to move forward, she stumbled and nearly fell.

Rod hurried to support her, but this body in his hands had almost no strength, so he could only pull her into his embrace.

A fragrant scent filled his nose; her body was perfectly proportioned.

Before he could feel it in detail, her legs gave way and she began to slide down.

Rod could only support her waist, pressing the elf tightly against his chest.

"Are you alright? Is the injury severe?"

"It's not the wound; it's the 【Werewolf Feast】. The cost of this spell is greater than I imagined, even with your spiritual aid."

Lady Kali in his arms was extremely pale, with cold sweat streaming down.

Rod could only feed her healing magic potion.

But she was so weak that even swallowing was a problem.

The pale purple potion slid down from the corner of her mouth, from her chin to her throat, and from her collarbone to her chest.

Contrasting with her snow-white skin, it slightly dampened the clothes on her chest.

"Master, your eyes are so lecherous."

Tally came to the side and laughed.

"Nonsense; I am checking her body."

She had almost no injuries, and not even her hair was disheveled.

The huge 【Scythe-Claw Reverse Blade】 in her hand contrasted with her petite night elf body at this moment, creating a certain flavor.

Tally stored the weapon in her spell satchel.

Then she leaned over and unbuttoned one button on Lady Kali's high-collared tight shirt, revealing a little.

Rod hurriedly stopped her.

"What are you doing?"

"Master~ What a chance! Haven't you always wanted to taste this elf? Let's execute her right here and now!"

"What's the point if she's unconscious? I mean, the most important thing in such matters is mutual consent!"

Ignoring her, Rod handed the elf to Vivian to hold.

Lady Kali was the type who disliked others touching her, at least on the surface, so Rod handed her over to the tree spirit, who had a better relationship with her.

He went to check on the zombie Selena and the ghoul Pan Ni.

Fortunately, their injuries were all light.

Selena's mana was exhausted, and she had fallen into the same coma as Lady Kali; Tally carried her on her back.

The succubus, being lazy, threw her to Pan Ni.

"Miss Druid, please follow me. There is a temporary hospital in the forest that can provide treatment, and I also have some understanding of plague injuries."

Rod quickly found the half-wolf Druid huddled on the outer edge.

At this moment, this Druid had turned into a smaller wolf; she weakly looked up, then looked at the center of the battlefield.

"Rest assured, the Plague Mage is dead."

The little wolf nodded, gave Rod a deep look, and then slowly left without looking back.

Everyone watched her leave.

Tally: "She seems very opposed to you, my Master."

"I can see that without you telling me."

He had heard from the scorpion woman Hera that their training activities in the forest had severely affected this half-wolf's cultivation.

It was already good that she didn't come to fight; she just couldn't stand him a little.

"But after this matter, she will definitely change her opinion of you, then gradually fall in love with you, and finally throw herself into your arms, becoming one of the harem in the forest."

Rod couldn't help but laugh, not taking the succubus's words to heart.

He would just be a bit more cautious in his attitude toward girls in the forest than toward outsiders.

At this moment, Vivian said: "Druid, Vivian, spoke with her."

"Oh? Is that so? What did you say?"

Rod was not surprised by this; after all, Druids and tree spirits are on the nature side, so having contact was normal.

Rather, the half-wolf Druid was avoiding only him.

"The moon."

Vivian blinked her big eyes and said in a dazed, cute manner.

Afterwards, she stammered and told Rod that the half-wolf Druid had pulled her to chat about the moon all night.

Including but not limited to thoughts and attitudes toward the moon, feelings when facing the moon, and topics such as the connection between spirituality and the moon.

Hmm.

It seems this one is a Druid who worships the moon.

Everyone gathered the spoils and quickly left the Ikou Hillside.

Rod took the girls to the temporary hospital in the Bai Yu District.

Miss Xiao Ke had been waiting here for a long time.

Seeing no major casualties, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She hurriedly made beds for everyone, busying herself with treating Lady Kali and Selena.

Vivian used the spiritual technique of the 【Spring of Life】 outside, allowing the water rich in vitality and healing power to take effect.

Rod possessed the 【Grassland Domain】 and could also provide some minor assistance.

After busy work for quite a while, he finally finished everything that could be done.

He sat on the stairs outside.

Gently pinching two water spheres in his hand.

The two 【Seals】 existed in the form of light; one was deep green, while the other was constantly shifting with multicolored radiance.

"Thanks to your help, Miss Xiao Ke."

The half-centaur had expended a great deal of spiritual energy to heal; after all, her rank was not high, and she was already exhausted.

At this moment, she was holding the water of the 【Spring of Life】 and drinking it down in one gulp; the water slid all the way down, wetting her collar.

"Helped out?!"

"Truly, you helped a lot."

Nothing connected to the etheric mana of the extra-dimensional space was good; just the matter of Vivian being infected with the 【Lust Seal】 previously made him quite worried.

If two more seals were to appear...

Miss Xiao Ke did not have so many worries; hearing that she could help, she immediately beamed with a brilliant smile.

Rod saw her smile was truly adorable, and his heart felt somewhat healed.

He could not help but step forward, gently hug her, and then kiss her on the forehead.

"What are you doing! Vivian is still here!"

Miss Xiao Ke blushed and pushed him away; peeking out, she saw the Tree Spirit was still communicating with the trees on the side, so she finally felt relieved.

Rod did not force the issue and asked, "Now that the future has become the past, can you finally tell me what you saw in the 【Book of Fate】?"

Unexpectedly, Miss Xiao Ke shook her head.

"The content obtained from peering into the 【Book of Fate】 cannot remain in memory for long; I can remember very little, only that Young Lady Kali might be corrupted by something strange, become strange herself, and cause huge changes in the forest and Shi Ying Town."

An elf?

Indeed, one 【Seal】 had clearly flown straight toward her.

The 【Lust Seal】 within Vivian's body had once altered some of her habits, so it was not impossible that this 【Seal】 flying toward the elf would transform her into something evil.

At this moment, Miss Xiao Ke leaned over, glancing around with a slightly furtive air.

"I-I don't want to speak ill of others behind their backs, but the 【Book of Fate】 shows that Young Lady Kali's restraint is excessive; perhaps this is one of the reasons for her drastic personality change after being corrupted. I think we should find a way to help her relieve it."

"Then what is your suggestion, Miss Xiao Ke?"

Restraint is excessive?

Rod could only shrug.
