Inside the forest.
Somewhere near the city of trolls.
In a hidden underground cave, the voodoo ritual was still going on.
The voodoo ritual was hosted by the poison spirit Remy's old woman, and Remy hid in a corner and watched the whole process with Mary.
The cave was not big, and the ground was uneven. There were still some ashes from the bonfire.
A long time ago, this place might have been the lair of a large carnivorous monster, but unfortunately, its habitat was too close to the city of trolls. So it was obvious that this place was later transformed into a simple camp by the trolls.
In the small underground cave, there was a public area, a lounge, an armory, and some unknown small storerooms. A team of seven trolls guarded this place. Now, they had become part of the voodoo ritual and could no longer return to their home.
The public camp area was cleared, and countless beast corpses and troll skulls were piled together as fuel. Their souls and flesh were stimulated by the spell formation below, turning into a cluster of pale green will-o '-the-wisp, quietly licking a strange crystal floating above.
There were too many souls trapped in the will-o '-the-wisp. They were crying, wailing, and cursing … The spell formation gathered the powerful hatred and resentment that overflowed from them, turned it into a terrible voodoo curse, and sent it all into the power crystal.
Based on the resonance of the same source of power, this power crystal was also echoing somewhere in the city of trolls. Following the unbreakable origin connection between them, this extremely powerful voodoo curse was also infecting the source of that miraculous power bit by bit.
Through the voodoo ritual, Remy could even hear an angry roar transmitted through the plane of laws.
Obviously, the source of the power had discovered the voodoo infection and expressed its anger.
Unfortunately, not only did its anger not make Remy afraid, but it made him even more excited.
Cursing a god … No, cursing a divine object. For any "curse wizard" to be able to experience such a thing once was something to show off and be proud of!
So, a few days ago, when Mary took out the power crystal, Remy did not hesitate to accept this "scary" mission. The reason why this mission was considered terrifying was because this kind of behavior would undoubtedly deeply enrage that Godly Object.
Once it was enraged and carried out unscrupulous revenge, the number of people in the Vampire Expeditionary Force who could escape the pursuit of a God Creature could be counted on one hand.
"How's the effect? Can you pass the plague to that guy? " Mary obviously knew nothing about voodoo rituals. After looking at it for a long time, she found nothing, so she could only ask patiently.
Remy rolled his eyes at Mary's question.
"Lady Mary, you think too highly of us! The other party was a divine creature! Don't even mention the plague, we can't even pass on a small Curse of Weakness. If something goes wrong, this place might even … "
At this point, Remy suddenly shivered and turned to look in the direction of the voodoo ritual.
Over there, above the voodoo ritual, a dark space suddenly twisted and shattered. From inside, a blinding golden lightning bolt burst out.
Caught off guard, the old poisonous woman who presided over the ritual screamed in pain as she was struck by the lightning bolt.
Her clothes, which were not much to begin with, instantly turned to ashes. Her messy and dirty short hair stood on end, and her greenish-purple skin was charred black. Even her mouth was open, and a wisp of black smoke was coming out.
Fortunately, the old poisonous woman had been transformed into a level-3 plague creature, so a "divine punishment" could not kill her.
When she struggled to get up from the ground, Remy opened his mouth and blew a thick yellow-green smoke at her.
The poisonous smoke quickly rushed into the old poisonous woman's body and quickly healed the lightning damage she had suffered.
However, the holy energy that accompanied the golden lightning was not so easy to dispel. Therefore, the old poisonous woman's strength inevitably decreased a little.
Seeing this scene, Mary couldn't help but look at Remy with a strange expression.
"You are very smart!" Mary said calmly.
"Thank you for the compliment!" Remy still had a cheeky smile on his face.
"You just said that you can't even send a curse spell over, so what's the point of continuing this voodoo ritual?"
"Madam Mary, the voodoo ritual may not be able to curse the feathered serpent, but it can corrupt its mind. So, between a smart and cunning feathered serpent god and a feathered serpent god that has been corrupted by violent emotions, which one will you choose? "
"The latter, of course. That thing has absolute power, and it will be difficult for us to fight it head-on. But once it loses control of its power, our chance will come! Are you sure you have a way to make it lose its mind? "Mary asked doubtfully.
"If it really is invulnerable, I won't waste time here." Remy's face showed a thoughtful look. "Ever since I used the voodoo ritual to establish a connection with the feathered serpent, I have felt very strange. It … doesn't seem to be as powerful as the trolls described. "
"Oh, what did you discover?"
"Either your previous information is wrong, or it is in a weakened state … In any case, that feathered serpent god is definitely not a Grade 5 creature, but a Grade 4 creature! Otherwise, the divine punishment just now would not have hurt it so little! "
"Not Grade 5, but Grade 4?" Mary could not help but feel surprised and happy.
She did not have Alice's ability to use a hammer and a piece of beast bone to see through the enemy's secrets. On the battlefield, any trace of information about the enemy had to be exchanged with blood and lives.
Thus, when she heard Poison Spirit Remy's judgment, Mary was both surprised and delighted. She became even more bewildered.
If the enemy was really only a Tier 4 Divine Warrior as Remy had guessed, then Mary and the others might have a chance at survival. As a vampire sorcerer from the main plane, even if the opponent was a grade higher than them, they did not fear a powerhouse from a subplane.
Not for anything else, but knowledge, techniques, equipment, and awareness!
The natives of this plane might not know much about sorcerers, but sorcerers could obtain a wealth of knowledge about other planes from books and knowledge crystals. By counteracting the effects of the plane's suppression, the sorcerers of the main plane were superior in all aspects to the natives of the subplanes, who were still in a primitive and ignorant state.
In terms of battle strength, the vampire expeditionary force led by Mary could not contend against thousands of brave troll warriors with strong bodies. However, with just a 'small' plague, Mary and the others were able to force the terrifying troll army to retreat without shedding a single drop of blood.
Even when faced with a capital of 20 to 30 thousand trolls, Mary and the others were not the least bit afraid. Instead, they schemed to catch all the enemies in one fell swoop. They even schemed against the native totem god that had been hiding behind the scenes all this time, the feathered serpent god.
The only thing that gave her confidence was the difference in mentality between the two of them.
As a sorcerer of the main plane, even if Mary's strength was slightly inferior to the other party, she still saw herself as a predator. No matter how strong and brave the other party was, in her eyes, it was just a fat wild boar.
However, just as she was thinking fiercely, Soros, who was in charge of guarding the perimeter, strode in.
"Master, there's movement in the capital of trolls. A large number of troll warriors are charging in this direction. It looks like they want to find us! "
"Hmph, it looks like that stinky snake is anxious and sent them out again. Inform all the blood breeds to move out. Lure them into the depths of the forest and kill them! " At this point, Mary's expression became excited, "I don't believe that the stinky snake can still safely stay in its nest after so many of its followers have died!"
"If it can still endure this, then it means that there's really something wrong with its body. When that time comes, we'll kill our way into its nest. Let's go … "
With that, Mary whistled and rushed out of the hiding place with her many vampire subordinates.
As for the site of the voodoo ceremony, there was a grade 3 poisonous old woman presiding over it, as well as Remy the Poison Spirit. For the trolls to be able to break through the vampires' line of defense and cause trouble here, they were definitely not very lucky.
Otherwise, why would they do something so suicidal!
… …
Somewhere in the Heisen Plane, Dracula Forest.
In the depths of the dark and deep tropical forest, a large amount of strange black matter had appeared in the sky above a slightly spacious clearing.
This substance was like liquid, churning and vibrating in the air, appearing abnormally active and restless.
Finally, with a tearing sound, the plane's space was torn apart, and a dark substance as thick as ink gushed out from the crack. In an instant, the clearing in the forest was dyed black and gloomy.
In the endless darkness, two dim lights suddenly lit up in a hazy and illusory shadow.
Shadow fiends had magical bodies, and the influence of the power of the plane was extremely small. Almost as soon as they crossed over, they broke free from the suppression of the will of the plane.
"Find Lady Mary … Protect her …"
The shadow fiend muttered in a strange tone, quickly locating Mary's location.
"Northeast … 2,700 miles …"
With the other party's information, the shadow fiend did not hesitate to move.
Unlike other magical machines that ran or flew in the air, the shadow fiend's movement was especially strange and sinister.
Relying on its Shadow Traversal ability, the shadow fiend appeared in the huge shadow of a tall ancient tree a hundred meters away in a flash. It only paused for a moment before its figure disappeared again, directly appearing in another shadow a hundred meters away.
