Chapter 1168 Honor Challenge
A large-scale terrible plague broke out in the jungle!
Although the witch doctor who accompanied the team tried desperately to rescue them, more than half of the troll warriors were still infected with plague spores, and they became poor creatures who only knew how to roll on the ground and scratch their bodies until they were bleeding.
The trolls are not stupid.
Although their brains are not as good as those of human wizards, they are also the well-deserved rulers of the Heisen plane.
Through various tests, they finally found some defects or shortcomings of this plague cloud.
That is... afraid of fire!
The plague cloud is not a dead thing, but a living organism composed of billions of tiny plague bacteria, so they are also afraid of fire.
After discovering this, the trolls immediately lit torches and began to burn these lingering poisonous clouds with flames. Sure enough, as the flames surged, the plague cloud was accompanied by a crackling sound of tiny explosions.
Most of the plague clouds were burned away by the flames, but the trolls infected with the plague could not be burned away like this. Therefore, the troll leader could only send people to gather them in a clearing in the forest and ordered the witch doctor who accompanied the team to treat them as soon as possible.
In order to save these companions suffering from the plague, more than 20 troll witch doctors gathered together, set up a huge iron pot in the middle of the clearing in the forest, and began to quickly boil the soup that could drive away the plague.
They wore strange clothes, with strange patterns on their faces and bodies. They danced ugly dances around the iron pot neurotically, and kept throwing various mysterious herbs into the iron pot. The boiling soup was steaming hot, and a pungent and terrible smell filled the forest.
But you must say that this witch doctor method full of primitive ignorance really has a certain effect.
After smelling the aroma of this decoction, the plague-infected people who were struggling in the dense forest unexpectedly calmed down a little, and the sound of their painful screams was much lower.
Mary and Remi, who were hiding in the dark and silently observing the movements of the trolls, couldn't help but shake their heads secretly.
After all, the plague can only be used as a side means to assist the war, but it can never become the main axis of the war. One of the most important reasons is that the true meaning of the plane war is to accumulate resources, plunder the population, and establish a stable colonial system that can continuously "transfuse blood" to their own family.
In this process, the indigenous local forces of the old world must not be completely destroyed, but they must be preserved as much as possible.
It can be imagined that if all the trolls are killed in one breath by means of plague or other witchcraft, the Crimson Family will lose tens of thousands of slaves who generally have the strength of a level 1 warrior. In the later stage, whether it is to build a huge plantation or develop a mine, a large number of strong slaves are needed.
Is it possible that in order to develop this Heisen plane, the Crimson Family will have to transport a large number of slaves from another world?
Not to mention the huge transmission costs incurred by this, the harsh and harsh environment here alone can kill most of the outsiders.
On the contrary, this is an astonishing amount of family expenses!
Therefore, when the wizards invade those small planes, they will only choose to carry out surgical precision strikes on the top leaders of the indigenous forces. Use cruel and terrifying means to eliminate the stubborn and the leaders of the indigenous forces, but their underlying structure must still be preserved.
Once they are all killed, the wizard family will not be able to spare so many people to re-establish a power system that can firmly rule the world. Therefore, the head of the troll kingdom must be chopped off, but its body must be preserved.
This will make it easier for wizards to replace it and establish a ruling class that is small in number but can deeply control the indigenous people of this plane.
Therefore, when launching a plague war, wizards must also strictly control the spread area and spread of the plague, but they cannot dry up the pond and mess up the world.
The plague controlled by the plague poison spirit Remi is undoubtedly very powerful!
However, this is a different world after all, and the laws of the planes and the operation of the elements are very different. Therefore, the infectiousness, lethality and survivability of the plague have been suppressed to varying degrees.
In addition, the trolls are all strong and healthy, and generally have tenacious vitality and strong magic resistance. This also caused the plague spread by Remi to never reach the level of transforming them into plague creatures.
In the plane world dominated by humans, Remi only needs one person to easily transform every plane native he encounters into his own plague slave.
One person makes an army!
Poison spirit Remi can even fight against the entire plane alone.
Of course, if all the strong men in the plane world gather together, Remi, who does not have much combat skills, may have to pay a considerable price to survive the opponent's counterattack.
Therefore, the different plane systems and different power levels also made the terrible plague spread by Remi, which could have ravaged the entire plane, fall on the troll army, but it only became a "disease" that slowly consumed their vitality!
The deadly effect of the plague was not shown, but it successfully reduced the overall strength of the troll army.
The troll army has stopped searching for invaders and has gathered together to try their best to treat those who were infected with the "evil disease". With the help of witch doctors, the condition of the infected was under control, and there was no large-scale transformation into servant corpses.
Therefore, in this dense forest, the offensive and defensive postures of both sides changed unexpectedly.
The troll legion, which had an absolute advantage in numbers, was the main defender, while the flexible vampires, led by two third-level vampires, became the attacking party.
Every time, taking advantage of the darkness, Mary led groups of vampires to continuously attack the temporary camps set up by the trolls, hoping to break into the encirclement and kill the few 'obstructing' troll witch doctors.
The trolls, on the other hand, were on guard.
On the outside, they set up simple camps, lit piles of bonfires, and then conducted tight defense around the bonfires. Anyone who dares to appear within their sight will be attacked by a storm of spears.
In fact, in terms of strength alone, the strength of the troll warriors is not weak, and they can even reach the level of strength in the middle plane in jungle combat. They generally have level 1 strength, strong physiques, and tough vitality. In close combat, they are not even weaker than ordinary level 1 body-refining wizards.
For close combat, they have strange wooden spears as hard as steel and poison-quenched spears; while at mid-range and short-range, the spears they throw are powerful and heavy, with extremely high accuracy. All things considered, the trolls in the Haisen plane have extremely excellent warrior potential.
Once this plane is taken down, the Crimson Family will have a slave army with good strength!
…………
Night falls.
The entire jungle fell into a strange silence.
The night wind blows, and the sound of branches and leaves scraping against each other rises and falls like the tide hitting the shore, and it is continuous.
And underneath this calmness, I don’t know how many people are moving quietly, lurking, and vigilant...
On the outskirts of the troll camp, clusters of tall and bright bonfires were lit.
At this time, a troll leader with level 3 primary strength was standing alone between two bonfires, roaring and roaring one after another into the dark and dark jungle.
On the ground behind its front and back, there were rows of wooden spears stuck upside down, and on its waist, five clanking metal spears hung.
In the darkness of the distant jungle, within the lush canopy of a tall ancient tree, Mary silently looked at the leader of the trolls who was as bold as a tiger through the gaps between the swaying branches, and finally couldn't help but speak.
"Who knows what this bastard is yelling about?"
When you first arrive in an alien plane, look for the natives of the plane and learn from their knowledge and memories to master the basic mood of this plane. This is also an ability that every qualified wizard must have.
In the witchcraft system, extracting memory fragments and extracting language abilities are also relatively common witchcraft methods!
Unfortunately, Mary seems to have no intention of learning the crude and primitive indigenous language of this plane.
Therefore, seeing a troll leader covered in flowers and willows and standing there roaring loudly, in Mary's eyes, he was no different from a gorilla beating its chest and roaring.
Intelligent life...
Bah, they deserve it...
"Master, this guy seems to have launched an honor challenge..." Wenlier, who was forcibly promoted to a second-level vampire thanks to Mary's favor, explained softly from the side.
"Honour challenge?"
"This is a strange rule in the sacred code of the troll kingdom. Any troll noble has the right to launch an honorary challenge to his enemies. This challenge is limited to both parties involved, and no third party is allowed to intervene, otherwise it will be regarded as Challenging the authority of Quetzalcoatl."
"Oh..." After hearing this, Mary became slightly interested: "Then what about the outcome?"
"The winner will own everything, while the loser will become the slave of the other party!"
"It seems that this troll country is also a society that emphasizes survival of the fittest. Those who can occupy high positions must be the strongest individuals in the entire group. They like to use force to determine the status. It is no wonder that their own knowledge and civilization system is so weak. "
"Yes, Master! This Haishen plane only has primitive and crude hunting skills, and even large-scale planting and breeding have not appeared. It is no wonder that they cannot support the height that a civilization should have. You see, there are 3 The giant monster is blocking the way, should we go around to another direction to take a look?"
Mary's beautiful and narrow eyes narrowed slightly, as if she was thinking seriously about something.
Finally, she spoke.
"Wenlier, tell me, if I accept the challenge of this troll, will their Quetzalcoatl project his power over me?" When saying this, Mary's eyes had narrowed to a slit. , there is a chilling murderous intent faintly revealed inside.
"This... Master, what the trolls are doing is worship of faith. This troll leader's power has reached level 3, and he must be a famous figure in the troll kingdom. It is highly likely that he can borrow the power of Quetzalcoatl to a certain extent. If you rashly fight against such an opponent, the situation may be difficult to control!”
"Then it will definitely come? Huh, sooner or later we have to fight that guy who is pretending to be a ghost. Instead of running to fight in his lair, it is better to get to know and test it here first... You wait here, I will meet you That guy who doesn’t know how to live or die!”
After saying that, Mary leapt forward and turned into a blood shadow and appeared on the battlefield!
