Chapter 336: One Against Two
Voodoo, also known as "voodoo", differs from the Orthodox Church of God in the Old World or the animistic primitive shamanism of the New World in that this belief is based on fear!
Benin, which originated in the southern continent, was brought about by the Anuma slaves who were trafficked from the southern continent to the new continent, and then further branched out.
The base camp was on the island of Saint-Domingue in the "Golden Sea", and with the prosperity of the slave trade, it already had a great influence among the various ethnic groups in the central and southern New World.
The central idea of voodoo is the belief that all life is interconnected, that matter has its own spirit form, and that people can travel back and forth between the physical and spiritual worlds.
And everything in the existing world is just an appearance, and there are more important soul forces operating behind it. The leader of that spirit world is a deity named Rigba, also known as the "Great Lord" by the believers.
There are also various gods in charge of death, fertility, love, jealousy, revenge, etc., but those gods are only a certain appearance of the "Great Lord", all gods and all things belong to the Great Lord, and the sorcerer is the medium of communication between man and God.
Believe in "voodoo" and follow the instructions of the shaman to avoid the harm of the "spirit"!
In voodoo there are many types of "voodoo dolls", just like the various amulets that were very popular in the Old World.
In the most basic color-based classification, black is used for curses, green is used for money, luck, and gambling, pink is used for love, red is used for success, charm, and happiness, white is used for poison and healing, and yellow is used for evil spirits and prayers for strength.
And the most powerful of all the "voodoo dolls", or the "real voodoo dolls" with real supernatural powers.
It is to cut off the heads of the "evil" living people with great power, and then put them on the iron altar, and the sorcerer casts a spell to imprison the victim's soul in his skull.
Then, using the "Head Shrinking Technique", the head is reduced to a real voodoo doll with arms and legs, which can be used to fight, kill, cast spells, and curse.
These dolls look no different from those made of paper, wax, cloth, straw, etc., but only wizards know how terrible they are.
This voodoo doll can provide powerful power to the host, and even the strongest ability of the original owner will be retained, allowing the host to easily obtain the skills that others have studied all their lives.
Merely.
The "evil spirits" imprisoned in the Voodoo Doll will run to Hell if they have no life sacrifice, so the "True Voodoo Doll" is sacrificed with the life and flesh of a person every once in a while.
"Ghoul" Moprati is a staunch voodoo believer and a warrior subordinate to Ogun, the "god of fire, iron, politics and war".
At this time, it is a "séance" that uses the core ability of [Psychic Samurai] and uses "Voodoo Doll" as a medium!
Next to him, the change of "Butcher" Mallory is also not small, and without saying a word, he has already launched his strongest [Ceci Scimitar Technique, Secret Mystery, Weeping Blood!]
His eyes were bloodshot, the bullet holes all over his body were torn again, and a red mist with a strong smell of blood had enveloped his body.
"Whew... Whew..."
Coupled with the effect of alcohol, he breathed heavily, bowed his head slightly and drooped his arms, like a drunken gibbon.
Even the posture of jumping towards the ship is extremely awkward.
But.
Boom ——!
Boom ——!
After a series of loud bangs.
Two "monster" like guys have already floated all the way out on the sea.
The captain landed lightly on the deck.
A black shadow was already like lightning, and it chased after the sea.
Bang!bang...
Dragging a line of snow and bright cold front, the slender and toned figure turned into a crossbow bolt flying from the sea, and the strong wind stirred the hair on his forehead, and also made the sea behind him rise a large mist that was difficult to bridge for a long time.
If they can still break through to the battleship with an absolute advantage, wouldn't it seem that Even is too incompetent?
Even where to choose the battlefield is up to him!
As for the weakest captain of the "Trout", "Greedy the Greedy" Jobrie, he was the only one of the three transcendents to successfully board the battleship.
But.
When he saw Gary in heavy armor and holding a giant axe with wheels, Boris pulling out his sword, and Milan dancing excitedly when he finally met an evenly matched opponent, these three official knights leaped over and tried.
When—
The scimitar lands.
"Poof" knelt on the ground, gave up resistance directly, and shouted in his mouth:
"Don't kill me! I surrender, I have important information to report!"
Boom——!
At this moment, a huge splash of water was heard in the distance.
With one enemy and two enemies, Evan has already fought with these two "monsters".
"Data-based vision" presents the information of both.
Name: Mallory (nicknamed "The Butcher")
Rank: Senior Knight
Attributes: Constitution 3.6, Strength 3.5, Agility 3.3
Skill: Ceci Scimitar (Mastery)
Status: Losing sanity
Aside from the fact that his mental state was a little wrong, the physical data did not surprise Aven.
On the contrary, the unknown profession of the Anuma pirate made him a little vigilant, at least when he was in the Old World in the past two years, not to mention that the Anuma transcendent was an ordinary slave, and he didn't see much.
Although I have heard of the more powerful transcendent professions among them, it is not easy to recognize them at a glance.
Name: Mopraty (nicknamed "Ghoul")
Rank: Unknown 2nd Order Official Transcendent
Attributes: Constitution 3.8, Strength 3.4, Agility 4.0, Spirit less than 1
Ability: Unknown
Bells, bells, bells...
The three of them either galloped fast on the sea with strong physical fitness or with wonderful mystical skills.
The sea exploded beneath your feet, creating waves several meters high.
Every exchange of weapons erupted with a deafening thunderclap.
Mallory "The Butcher" uses the pirate's usual scimitar, and even though he has reached the mastery level, Evan is still able to deal with it with ease.
His current ability in all aspects is no longer the level he had when he dealt with "Blood Anchor" Zach or "Iron Bone" William.
Especially with his familiarity with the "Cesi scimitar technique", he predicted in advance, even in a melee, he would only fly it away in three or two strokes.
Then, concentrate on dealing with the natives of the Southern Continent who don't know how to do it.
Whoosh –
The wind blew like a razor over Aven's head, a native pirate named Moprati in the mouth of the pirates, who looked like five big and three thick, but in fact he was as agile and extraordinary as himself.
The combat concept is also different from the usual form of the Old Continent, which includes a lot of somersaults, side kicks, roundhouse kicks and other movements, which is very different from the Old World swordsmanship's concept of never leaving the ground unless it is absolutely necessary.
The leg technique is extremely powerful, as if one leg can kick a steel pillar, and the moves are weird and unguardable.
【Evil Spirit Ability: Capoeira War Dance!】
The "Capoeira War Dance" is an empty-handed martial art created by the master of martial arts among the Anuma slaves, combining self-defense and dance.
It seems to be an exaggerated dance, but it adds a large number of powerful leg techniques, and was even banned by Syrius for a time.
It is only among a few specific groups of anuma that it is spreading.
Obviously, this ability of the "evil spirit" means that he was once a member of the Moprati clan. It's just that I don't know what mistake I made, and I was imprisoned by a wizard and made a voodoo doll.
Then Moprati was given.
Whew——
At the same time, with the strange-shaped "Baya Sword" in his hand, his movements were fluctuating and moving, as if flying on the water.
"Baya Sword" is a Qimen weapon, like a sword, like a knife, and like a sickle, with a curved tip at the tip of the blade that is thick at the top and thin at the bottom.
Stab, slash, cut, slash... There are many ways to use it.
However, the more Qimen weapons have higher requirements for users, at least this native pirate has not practiced it at home, and he can't even use the "mystery", which is far from enough to see in front of Aven.
Ai Wen, who had more hands with him because of his novelty, after having a general understanding of his skills, he no longer kept his hands, and directly crushed him with far beyond his physical fitness and swordsmanship level.
At the moment when Moprati rose into the air again, his body was short.
The swift sword in his hand turned into pure white sword light, which had flashed from his waist without hindrance.
Cut in half!
"Huh?"
However, the touch from his hand made Ai Wen keenly feel that something was wrong, it was obviously flesh and blood, but it gave people the ethereal feeling of slashing on the evil spirit.
Instantly pulled out and flew back.
Sure enough, the vicious blade rained down from the sky as if it were unaffected, only shattering the remnants of Aven's wake.
Bang –
Deftly landed on the water, and the black Moprati paused his feet and rushed towards Evan again.
Seeing the surprise on his face, the corners of this "psychic warrior" mouth cracked, revealing a row of white teeth with shredded flesh:
"Quack, damn Nemanster, feel the power of Ogun! Give your heart!"
The strange yellow voodoo doll embedded in his chest also cracked his mouth at the same time, salivating over the flesh and blood on Aven's body.
The "psychic warrior" descends through voodoo dolls and obtains some of the qualities of "spirit". After the body is blurred, being able to hit others, but others can't hit themselves, is the core ability of this extraordinary profession!
It is also the confidence that they dare to use this "capoeira war dance" to take off frequently.
Of course.
The premise is that the opponent is just an ordinary knight who can wield a sword.
The face does not change.
Evan held the sword in his right hand, and a green transcendent aura slashed across the blade in his left hand.
demo——
Listen to the sound of a spell like a pinprick in your ears.
On the slender and snowy cold front, there was already a layer of light blue electric light dancing and shining.
【Official Sorcery: Demonic Weapon!】
This is another achievement of Aven after his promotion to wizard, and it is also a common witchcraft in the "Alchemy School".
Whether it is in the inheritance of the Alchemy School (Evan has already obtained the official wizard authority in the "Violet Eye"), or in the "Rite of Flesh", it is recorded, but there are new and old versions.
It can be used to enchant weapons temporarily, or to craft unique alchemy utensils, such as the "Fire Enchantment Ring" that Anthony once used.
It also made Evan finally no longer need the holy water of the church to help him when facing the spirits.
【Upanishads: Jumping Waves!】
As soon as the body turned into three, at the same time as the other party rushed over, three surging dark blue sword lights had already gone straight to the vital point of Moprati.
In a state of being possessed by "evil spirits", the senses of the "psychic warrior" are extremely keen, and the huge sense of crisis makes him realize the unusualness of this attack.
Instantly switch states, in the form of a special existence of the spirit body, which is tangible and insubstantial, to counteract the momentum of the forward rush and dodge in a hurry.
"Ahh
Whew-
The biting wind blew, and when Moprati reappeared ten meters away, it was as if it had been bleached, and it was all white.
Although he was not broken at the waist, he lost an entire thigh, although he was not decapitated, he lost an entire arm, and although he was not broken his chest, he was almost neatly cut off a row of ribs.
What's even more deadly is that the face of the "voodoo doll" on his chest, which originally looked a little cute, also cracked a hideous mouth and kept screaming, struggling to completely burrow into Moprati's chest.
Cold sweat rolled down the forehead of this "psychic warrior" who had just been invincible, and the effect of "séance" was like using a mushroom bomb to generate electricity, and if there was a slight accident, it would be subject to the strongest backlash.
The voodoo doll wants to burrow into its body not for anything else, but to use its own internal organs to fill its hungry stomach due to injury!
"Whew... Whew...
When the lightning rolls and the thunder roars;
Let me be calm, bless me with courage;
When the lightning is loud and the thunder rolls;
The light from vespers reassures me;
......”
There was no flesh and blood of the same kind to satisfy the appetite of the "Voodoo Doll", and Moprati could only gasp for breath and chant incantations from the wizard in vain to appease it.
Then... Delay your own death!
