Chapter 99: Flag Conquest Battle

The experience is always novel.

Rod finds it hard to articulate the feeling of two nearly perfect bodies entangling you.

It is a care and desire that treats you as a treasure.

Tally launches the 80-11 offensive first.

The succubus scent and aroma, revealing the demon's true form, are especially sweet.

Rod does not reject it; he cannot stop.

Vivian, unwilling to yield, joins the flag conquest battle.

Tally suddenly lets out a strange cry.

Thus, distracted for a moment, she lost possession of the major flag, which was occupied by Vivian.

Helpless, she could only attack the flank.

Unfortunately, it was a tiny place, but fortunately, a spot was preserved.

In the next instant, the battle situation changed.

Given Vivian's prior occupation of the flag, she now owns the territory for this round.

She chose a frontal tactic led by her, using her healthy and toned physique to guide the territory's citizens into her domain.

Although tree spirits are usually desireless and unambitious, who would have thought they are quite proactive in this regard?

But the flag's strength exceeded the limit.

Meanwhile, Tally fought a flanking maneuver.

She countered with an offensive of public opinion censorship.

It seems she intends to leverage the advantage of 【Enchanting Fluid】 to make all the people in that territory focus entirely on her.

A very good tactic.

But obviously, she miscalculated!

With the super-high spiritual power boost from 【Will of the Firmament】, the land named Rod can now resist enchantment!

Is our Young Lady Tally about to lose another round?

Oh no!

Oh no!

Young Lady Tally has used the 71-2 formation again; what is she doing?

She actually deployed the move that lost the previous round; is the succubus giving up in despair?

No! No!

And she is attacking together with Young Lady Vivian!

What superb skill!

Young Lady Tally, possessing shapeshifting, split her tongue and launched continuous attacks at an unimaginable speed!

What! A powerful earthquake has struck Vivian's native land!

The powerful earthquake shattered it!

In the end, the gap in experience was simply too great!

Vivian has temporarily fallen!

I see! No wonder she is the tactical master, Young Lady Tally.

Finally!

After her long-term unremitting efforts.

First battle! Tally wins!

Immediately following is the second battle, with not even half a moment of pause.

Young Lady Vivian also recovered her fighting spirit after a brief rest and recuperation.

Let us wait and see.

Their attentiveness allowed Rod to go all out for a thorough, massive battle.

There was absolutely no room for Rod to rest for even half a second.

Until the next morning.

On the side, Chris in the stable watched the scene there speechlessly.

Damn it, are you a beast?

Not long after, Rod walked out of the door, refreshed and clear-minded.

Sensing the Banshee's gaze, he said coldly:

"What? Do you want to try too?"

Chris immediately hid her head in the pile of weeds, saying not a word.

While the two girls were still resting in bed.

Rod used 【Tree Walker】 to arrive at the Sand Willow District, the border area between the Wind Wall Forest and the Death Desert.

Near the Sand Willow District, he discovered a magical treehouse.

And he sensed Amy's presence.

It was still early; she was still resting.

Without disturbing her, Rod continued walking outward.

"It seems a bit closer again," he thought silently.

Looking at the giant sand tornado in the distance, he thought.

Immediately, he discovered some other seedlings in the Sand Willow District.

It carried a trace of magical aura on it, but under the erosion of these special kill-orders, it had grown utterly withered.

It looked as though it would not survive being planted.

Rod had surplus 【Growth Spirit】, so he channeled a little of it into a sapling beside him that carried a magical aura.

【Sand Willow (Magic-Modified) obtained: Spirit Potential】

The Sand Willow sapling emitted a faint glow.

It seemed to have come back to life a few degrees more.

Speaking of which, now that 【Growth Spirit】 was plentiful enough, it was time to try whether it could be used on intelligent races.

A breeze of spirit stirred his thoughts.

Rod turned his head back.

He saw Lady Kali riding a white horse, approaching slowly.

She saw Rod and was slightly startled.

"Long time no see, Lady Kali."

The elf still had that same sour face and sour temper, and without a word she rode past him.

She went to the side to observe the condition of the Sand Willow saplings.

After a while, when she inspected the saplings at Rod's position, she acted as though she had only just noticed him.

"Oh, human, you're not dead yet."

". How are things? Nothing major gone wrong, I hope?"

"Of course, of course — you only vanished for a little over a month, and then without a word handed your woman and Lin Zi over to me to look after."

"Mm."

Put that way, it did seem rather hasty at the time.

It really did seem like he hadn't made proper arrangements.

Rod took out from his spell pouch the specialty musical instruments, clothes, and a few spell-imbued bracelets and small pendants he had bought in Scorching City and Jade City.

He had heard that elves might like these sorts of things.

The elf snorted and turned her back.

At that moment Rod noticed a scar on her snow-white neck.

"You're hurt?"

Lady Kali stiffened for a moment, quickly weaving magic to raise the collar of her blue-white clothes, completely hiding the scar.

"None of your business."

She said coldly.

But she neither refused nor accepted the gifts in Rod's hands.

I understand.

Elves, after all.

Not refusing is the same as accepting.

Just like my old boss.

Rod hung all the things on her white horse.

"People from the Mage Control Alliance came by; they said they wanted to station a quarantine zone here, but I turned them down for you."

"Huh?"

Why on earth turn them down?

Isn't it rather nice to have people helping out?

I'm a perfectly proper Forest Warden — what have I got to hide?

Well, okay, maybe keeping succubi, ghouls, and orcs around really isn't all that presentable, morally speaking.

"Why waste words? They definitely wouldn't care about the forest — neither Vivian nor I would allow such behavior!"

Rod didn't argue the point any further.

Considering Vivian's feelings, he would have refused the stationing too.

He looked at those saplings carrying a magical aura.

"What are those?"

"A new variety I co-developed with Witch Di Mi Ya — it can block the invasion of sandstorms and protect the woods."

Lady Kali took out a bottle of green liquid, carefully trickled it onto the roots of the modified Sand Willow, and said:

"But I don't know what went wrong — this modification just hasn't been working — eh?"

She let out a gasp.

She looked with pleasant surprise at the Sand Willow Rod had just infused with 【Growth Spirit】.

She cast an Appraisal spell at it.

"It actually succeeded!"
