At this time, with the help of the soldiers, Ethan smoothly left the city.

He hadn’t even returned to the dungeon when he heard Mia’s voice behind him.

Ethan turned around to see Mia rushing over with a basket slung over her arm, giving Ethan a reproachful look.

“Why are you only coming back now? I was worried about you.”

Ethan pulled Mia into his arms and said softly, “It’s okay, something came up and took a bit longer than expected, otherwise I would have been back earlier.”

Mia didn’t say much in response, just tightened her embrace.

After they’d spent a bit of time being affectionate, Ethan asked, “What’s with the basket?”

She gave a playful grin, then handed the basket over to Ethan.

It was full of items she had gathered, mostly stems of wild grass.

Mia said with a hint of pride, “I haven’t been idle these past few days. I’ve been learning a lot from Divine Dragon Laborers. I can make so many clothes now! And according to Divine Dragon Laborers, the clothes I make have enhancement properties – they can boost speed or strength!”

On hearing this, Ethan put on a shocked expression, “Wow, Mia, you’re amazing! You can even make these enhanced garments now. That’s really impressive.”

Mia’s face turned red at the compliment, and she shook the basket as she said, “Oh stop, it’s really not that big a deal. I just wanted to contribute something to the camp. Anyway, I’ve got to get back to gathering. Since you’re back now, remember to go over to the creek. Allie told me just this morning she’ll be waiting for you there today.”

Ethan nodded, then made his way towards the creek.

“Ethan, Ethan!”

He looked up, and just as he expected, it was the succubus, Allie.

In the heat of the summer, Allie was scantily clad, with a black lace bralette barely covering her chest, and black stockings tightly wrapping her voluptuous thighs.

As Allie ran towards him, her soft chest bounced in Ethan’s gaze, stirring a reaction within him.

Allie stood before Ethan, unabashedly flaunting her body.

She then bowed deeply, revealing a sight so enticing, it was hard to look away.𝑜𝒱𝑙xt.𝒸𝐎𝓂

Ethan took a step back and said, “What’s up? Talk to me, don’t be like this.”

With her cheeks flushed, Allie whispered, “Thank you for helping me the other day. Aho from our camp told me you carried me back. I really appreciate it.”

Ethan scratched his nose awkwardly and said, “It’s no big deal, it’s what I should have done. Besides, if I took you in as my minion, I can’t just let you fall into danger, right? By the way, you seemed to have used a lot of energy that day, how are you feeling now?”

Allie seemed a bit embarrassed and stuttered, “I’m mostly recovered now, thanks to you. If not for you, our camp would have been in danger.”

Ethan waved it off, “Those were just minor things, don’t worry about it.”

Suddenly, the pattern of a succubus flickered in Allie’s eyes.

Ethan felt a wave of dizziness and said, “Are you doing this again?”

Seeing that Ethan was still coherent, Allie gave up.

She stuck out her tongue playfully, “I was just testing to see if you’ve been slacking off lately. Boss is truly different.”

Ethan shook his head helplessly and asked, “So, what’s your plan now?”

Allie took a few steps forward and said, with a hint of confusion, “I’m not sure where to go. Maybe you could suggest something?”

An unusual, yet gentle scent filled Ethan’s nostrils as Allie leaned closer.

Their height difference gave Ethan a perfect view of her voluptuous chest.

Allie caught his gaze but made no attempt to avoid it.

Instead, she lowered her top a little and pressed her arms against her chest to enhance her cleavage.

Ethan had no choice but to turn his head and suggested, “You’re not the strongest among the Dark Lords. Maybe you could join the Divine Dragon Laborers and explore alongside them? That way, if there’s any danger, you could reach out to me for help.”

Allie, curious to see how far Ethan could resist, took advantage of his distraction, hugged Ethan’s arm and pressed her soft body against him.

Ethan looked at Allie as he felt the unusual sensation.

She said seriously, “Well, if that’s the case, I guess I could consider it.”

Then she leaned a bit more into Ethan’s arms, making sure he could feel her body more clearly.

Her movement made Ethan’s fingers touch a certain part of her body, causing her to blush and clamp her legs together.

Unable to resist her tempting advances, Ethan, a young man in his 20s at the peak of his desires, turned Allie around, grabbed her buttocks, and tore her stockings.

Just as he was about to proceed, Allie playfully interrupted, “Boss, we can’t do this now. If you take my virginity, my powers will be reduced to one-tenth, making it hard for me to help you.”

Ethan led the dragon to the ‘garden area’, heard Allie’s words, fell silent for a few seconds, and had no choice but to give up.

Pulling up his trousers, Ethan felt a sense of helplessness, his mind instantly cleared.

He then jumped straight into the stream to cool himself down.

Allie, however, sat on the bank, watching Ethan’s reaction and giggling away.

In the icy cold river, the dragon gradually returned to its original size.

Seeing Allie on the bank, Ethan decided not to go back up, and continued speaking from the water, “Well, since you’ve agreed, just go and explore as I suggested. By the way, if you’re short-handed over there, I can send over some goblins for support.”

Allie shook her head and said, “No need, I’ve also managed to unlock an achievement after this battle. There’s a kind of soldier called succubus harvester in the achievement. It’s a resource type unique to the succubus race. Harvesters can maximize the use of surrounding resources without overexploiting them, very intelligent.”

Ethan nodded, then asked, “So, what’s the efficiency of a harvester in a day?”

“Hmm, roughly speaking, one can harvest about 300 food, 200 wood, and 100 iron ores a day. That’s about it. But I’m short on iron resources right now, still lacking about 100 to summon one.”

Upon hearing this, Ethan’s face lit up with joy.

He said, “Harvesters are that powerful? We should summon more of them, then we wouldn’t have to worry about resources.”

Allie quickly shook her head, saying, “Exactly because the harvester’s abilities are so OP, I can only summon one right now. Also, the conditions to unlock it are pretty harsh. You need to control 10 enemies and kill 20 allies in battle to unlock it. I was lucky this time and managed to meet the criteria under the protection of the Divine Dragon Warrior.”

Ethan nodded in agreement.

If unlimited summons were possible, two harvesters could equal the daily resource collection of his entire camp. That would be utterly broken.

He continued, “Since resources aren’t a problem now, if you have any surplus food, send it over here, as per our previous agreement. And remember the old rule: if there’s any danger, report it immediately and don’t stray too far from me.”

Allie obediently nodded.

Then she stood up, removed her torn stockings, and casually tossed them to Ethan.

“Here, take this as a gift from me.”

Before Ethan could say anything, Allie turned and quickly left.

After all, only wearing a pair of panties underneath, she felt a touch of shyness.

Ethan held the stockings in his hand, shaking his head helplessly.

After emerging from the stream, he found a hole in the ground, made sure no one was around, and threw the stockings into it.

As he was burying them, he said, “Littering isn’t good…”

Once he had buried the stockings, Ethan returned to the dungeon.

The dragon warriors on guard saw him and knelt to greet him.

“Welcome back, Master!”

Ethan nodded and moved on.

When he reached the first level of the dungeon, the dungeon guardian, Baymax, was still sleeping.

Ethan did not disturb him, and tiptoed to the dungeon’s depths.

He saw that the smithy had been built, and the Divine Dragon Laborers were hammering away at the anvil.

Ethan did not interrupt them.

He arrived at Whitty’s hatchery and called out in a low voice, “Whitty, Whitty.”

After calling a few times, a chubby little bird landed on Ethan’s shoulder.

“Master, I’m here.”

Ethan looked at the little chubby bird and couldn’t help but chuckle, “What happened, you’ve grown so much in just a couple of days?”
