After a period of consideration, Grim came up with the following list.
Rank 3: Lightning Dragon Armes
Level 2: Grim, Alice, Mary, Tigula, Gru.
Rank 1: Wind Wizard Deseira, Medusa, Berserk Witch Sofia, and 4 new Magi.
Magic Machinery Team: 100 Shield Guardians, 300 Magic Archers, 30 Magic Chariots, 200 Eyeball Mechs, 10 Gnome Engineers, 50 Gnome Technicians …
This was all the manpower the Crimson Family could muster!
Compared to the team that had entered the Faern Plane, this team was stronger.
In comparison, even though the leader of the Witches of Death, Cthuna, had already declared war, the real battle would still drag on for half a year. There was no helping it. Crossing planes to attack a plane that was guarded by another powerful race, and without sufficient preparation and power to support them, they would be sending themselves to their deaths.
Thus, even though the Witches of Death had sworn to take revenge on the Orc God, they still had to be careful when choosing a plane. They even had to deliberately mislead the other party so that they would not know who they really wanted to attack.
In Wilning, a large Planar Gate was being built.
The Witches of Death were also becoming more active, using all sorts of methods to search for and investigate the signs of the planes controlled by the Orc God.
Logically speaking, these signs were top-notch information that was kept secret. Apart from the higher-ups of the Orc God's faction, no one else should know about it. However, the Magus World and the World of Gods had been at odds with each other for tens of thousands of years. Through constant attacks and exchanges, they had a clear understanding of each other.
Thus, the Witches of Death only needed to spend some magic crystals to obtain the signs of seventeen planes occupied by the Orc God's faction from the Silver Alliance and the Magus Association.
These planes were not half-developed primitive planes. Instead, they were planes of faith filled with the followers of the Beast Deity, where the indigenous forces were powerful. Furthermore, the Witches of Death had publicly announced that they would give up on any benefits from this plane expedition, just to deal a heavy blow to the Orc God's arrogance and take revenge for their dead sisters.
Thus, the invasion this time was not for occupation, but for destruction!
What the Witches of Death wanted to destroy was not a tribe or an empire, but an entire plane.
They planned to use the method of slaughtering the believers of the Beast Deity in an entire plane to take revenge on the shame that the Beast Deity had previously imposed on the Witches of Death.
In order to confuse the enemy, the Witches of Death even sent a large number of witches to sneak into these planes, creating the impression that the enemy was launching an all-out attack. However, most of these witches were just pawns used to confuse the enemy, and only a few of them had powerful positioning tools on them.
Once the target of attack was determined, the Witches of Death would be able to use the signal sent back by the positioning stone to connect the Plane Door to the enemy's world. All of these would be able to open a portal that would lead directly to the plane of the Beast God's believers.
At that time, all the major witch factions would have to do was to rush in and kill them all!
Of course, it was extremely difficult to completely destroy a plane. One had to find a way to destroy the source of the other plane.
Grimm definitely did not have such a method, but the Witches of Death did!
Therefore, the Witches of Death entered the other plane in order to destroy the source of the plane. The responsibility of Grimm and the others was to slaughter the believers of the Beast Deity and destroy the other party's faith nodes. This way, they would be able to disrupt the other party's reinforcements, and buy more time for the Witches of Death to cast spells and offer sacrifices.
Therefore, the Witches of Death and the Beast Deity had been conducting psychological warfare and feint attacks for half a year around the invasion of this plane. The number of high-ranking members on both sides had reached double digits.
Finally, on the 131st day after Cthuna's declaration of war, the Plane Door was completely completed!
It was an abnormally huge stone door.
The frame of the entire stone door was made of unknown dark stones, and it was densely engraved with countless magic runes. When a powerful magic energy was injected into the base of the stone door, all the runes on the stone door lit up in an instant.
Then, a bright film of light slowly opened in the middle of the stone door.
Many strange bands of light of different colors floated out of the film of light, dancing and twisting above the stone door. They were intermittent, dancing and twisting, like beautiful illusions in a strong magnetic field.
Near the stone door, there was a very obvious gravitational disturbance.
Many stones, dust, and even heavy carriages lost their gravity and began to float. In other areas, there was a gravity abyss that was hard to see with the naked eye. Any life that stepped into the gravity abyss would instantly have their body and organs crushed by the terrifying gravity, turning into a pile of minced meat.
Moreover, such a gravitational disordered region was random, without any pattern to speak of.
All the acolytes had already retreated from the teleportation plaza, not daring to go near the Plane Door. Even a high-ranking Magus like Grimm did not dare to walk around carelessly in a place where the magnetic field, gravity, space, and time were obviously distorted. Otherwise, he would be in danger of getting injured.
Grimm stood in the southwest corner of the teleportation plaza with his head held high. He narrowed his eyes, which flickered with blue light as he silently scanned the degree of distortion around the Plane Door.
The beautiful bands of light that drifted about seemed light on the surface, but the data that the A.I. Chip scanned back was filled with a glaring red light.
1117 degrees!
These bands of light that looked like beautiful scarves were filled with terrifying spatial cracks. Once they hit a person's body, they would be instantly sliced apart. Even if one put up a defensive spell, these bands of light with shocking cutting power could cut through the body along with the shield. The upper half of one's body would be in one plane, while the lower half would be in another.
If one did not have a method to defend against the spatial slashes, even a rank 2 Magus would die if they were hit by these bands of light.
In comparison, the destructive power of the gravitational field seemed negligible.
Moreover, the closer one got to the Plane Door, the more distorted the strange forces became.
Passing through the Plane Door in such a terrifying environment was not something that an ordinary acolyte could handle.
"The Witches of Death have set off!" Alice, who was standing beside him, reminded him softly.
Grimm heard this and quickly found the group of Witches of Death.
The two rank 3 Witches of Death had already arrived in front of the light membrane of the Plane Door. Using some unknown method, they managed to stabilize and calm the trembling Plane Door.
Immediately, more than half of the abnormalities around the Plane Door disappeared.
Taking advantage of the rare period of peace, the Witches of Death urged a large number of middle-ranked and high-ranked undead to gather together. They staggered and disappeared into the Plane Door in rows.
Among these undead, Grimm immediately recognized the Iron Zombies, Black-Blooded Zombies, Venomous Zombies, Liches, Skeletal Monsters, Undead Warriors, Dark Knights … Under their escort, there was also a terrifying Lich with a white bone crown on his head, wearing a magic robe and holding a short skull staff. He was riding on a tall Bone Dragon.
From time to time, Grimm could see terrifying existences that were at rank 3 and 4. Such high-ranked undead could easily become an Undead Lord in the Skeletal Plane. But here, they were only high-level servants and spellcasters of the Witches of Death.
The black mass of undead was crowded and filthy. Every one of them was so ugly and twisted that it was unbearable to look at them directly. But their numbers were shocking. They kept teleporting over and over. Even after more than an hour, they still could not see the end of the line.
With Grimm's hearing and senses, he could faintly hear battle cries coming from the other side of the Plane Door.
It seemed like the other side was already prepared!
Since that was the case, the troops that entered the Plane Door first would have to endure the fiercest attacks of the enemy.
It was no wonder that the Witches of Death placed this group of undead at the forefront. They were basically using them as cannon fodder to wear down the enemies on the other side of the Plane Door!
Roar …
With a deafening roar, the leader of the Witches of Death, Cthuna, rode on the rank 4 Zombie Dragon Artest and appeared majestically.
The appearance of the Zombie Dragon immediately threw the orderly undead troops into chaos.
All of the undead moved to the sides in fear and gave way to the huge and sturdy Zombie Dragon, whose body was covered with greenish-gray rotten flesh and steel-green dragon scales, in the middle of the Plane Door.
The Zombie Dragon Artest took heavy steps and dashed toward the Plane Door with large strides. At the same time, it let out a deafening roar at the high-level undead beside it. All of the high-level undead that it targeted couldn't help but tremble and retreat. They looked as if they couldn't bear the Zombie Dragon's overwhelming ferocity.
The Zombie Dragon Artest carried Cthuna and disappeared into the Plane Door. Shortly after, a few other high-level Witches of the Witches of Death entered the Plane Door together.
It was only at this moment that the undead troops calmed down and started to pour in endlessly.
The Witches of Death's troops spent a total of five hours before they passed through the Plane Door completely.
Then, it was the Dark Witches' turn.
The Dark Witches sent a troop of more than a thousand people. Other than the Shadow Mastiffs, Shadow Warriors, Shadow Assassins, and other pure shadow creatures, there was also a portion of them that were half-shadow creatures with strange and distorted forms. From them, Grimm could see the physical characteristics of the Plane Creatures, as well as the coldness and fierceness that were unique to shadow creatures.
Their strength also varied. There were terrifying existences at the third and fourth level, and there were also weaklings that had just crossed the first level.
