Chapter 430 The Giant of Light Confronts the Faceless
After the faceless man's clamor ended, the entire hotel regained its light.
The special forces members looked at each other, knowing that this was probably a trap set by the Faceless Men, but they had no choice but to dig into it.
"This...what the hell is this?"
The hotel manager asked tremblingly, his green face turned dark green with fear.
Buck glanced at him sideways and said calmly.
"This is what we are tracking. Next time, don't jump to conclusions easily about something beyond your knowledge."
The hotel manager nodded quickly and sincerely, his expression looking a little helpless.
Seeing that he looked like he had been taught a lesson, Buck stopped talking about him and instead talked to the two female team members.
"Anita, Hiloma, you stay here to help evacuate the people in the hotel, and we go upstairs to catch the Faceless Men."
The manager breathed a sigh of relief after hearing such an arrangement. At this time, if we only relied on hotel managers like them, it would be really confusing.
The darkness that had just enveloped the hotel had caused panic. As they went upstairs, the special forces team encountered guests who were crowding downstairs.
Seeing this scene, the hotel manager finally did not lose his professionalism and led the management team to work hard to maintain order. At the same time, he saw that the special forces could not go upstairs quickly because the residents were blocking the stairs, so he handed over the work here.
Gave it to a colleague.
"Follow me! There is a special passage leading directly to the top floor."
Buck had somewhat changed his mind about this man, and now he dared to offer to lead the way. I really don't know where he got the courage.
…
The manager took Buck, Brian, Kel'Thuzad and Jack to the top seventeenth floor. As soon as he opened the elevator door, the manager screamed again.
"Oh my God! What the hell is going on here?!"
The seventeenth floor, which was originally luxuriously decorated, was now extremely dark in the corridor, and twisted masses composed of internal organs and blood vessels could be seen everywhere. The hotel manager had never seen such a nightmarish scene before, and he almost fainted from fear.
Kel'Thuzad supported him.
"That's it. It's amazing that you can send us up here. Be careful when you go back."
After bidding farewell to the hotel manager, Kel'Thuzad looked at the horrifying scene in front of him and couldn't help but say.
"This place is scarier than the insect nest. Let alone an ordinary person, even I can't stand it."
No one answered Kel'Thuzad's words, because everyone acted as if they were facing a powerful enemy. Even Kel'Thuzad only used words to relieve his nervousness.
"Jack, is this the room you sensed?"
Arriving outside the room at the end of the corridor on the seventeenth floor, Buck once again confirmed to Jack that he now fully believed that Jack's intuition was correct.
Jack nodded solemnly, Brian was also taking a deep breath, and Kel'Thuzad was still adhering to his unique method of relieving stress.
"No matter how you think about it, this is the one. Look at the house number, Room 0. According to the bad taste of the Faceless Man, you will definitely choose this place."
Everyone violently destroyed the door, and what came into view was the burly back of the Faceless Man.
This guy is nearly three meters tall, but his waist width is an astonishing 1.2 meters. Such a bloated figure makes the 3.5-meter-high penthouse suite look particularly crowded.
Of course, the crowded room may also be due to the walls and ceiling being filled with all kinds of disgusting clumps.
"You are finally here. I have waited so hard for you."
The faceless man turned around as he spoke, and the four of them felt sick to their stomachs when they saw its front.
What is extremely incompatible with the strong back is the "thinness" of its front. This thinness is purely literal. Its front body has extremely shrunk to only a layer of skin, and even sunken toward the back.
The face composed of compound eyes, appendages and tentacles forms a concave surface inward, and the facial organs are all squeezed together, revealing an indescribable weirdness.
"It's really disgusting. Shouldn't you be working hard to hide here and there? Why are you waiting for us?"
Buck frowned and asked, even though the dragon clan's knowledge and knowledge were not suitable for the faceless man's appearance.
"Hiding? Don't get me wrong. I'm not afraid of you. I just need enough time for the curse to mature. Now that the time is up, I can play games with you to my heart's content. I hope you like today's show."
The Faceless Man's words made Kel'Thuzad's heart skip a beat. He looked at the surrounding environment and the Faceless Man's strange appearance, and after analyzing the Faceless Man's words, he instantly connected the truth of what happened.
"You sacrificed your own life force to catalyze the curse to mature in advance?!"
Hearing Kel'Thuzad's words, the faceless man's sunken body twisted wildly, and then he spoke proudly.
"Mage, you are indeed very smart, but unfortunately you are always a step too slow. The great transformation has begun!"
"boom!!!"
The Faceless Man let out a shrill roar, and the ceiling of the room suddenly collapsed. A strange purple-black light pillar shot straight into the sky, and the source of the light beam was the magic circle behind the Faceless Man.
In the light pillar of the magic circle, a portrait of a super beast was activated bit by bit.
"The fear and despair harvested from the children will be your best nourishment, come on! Hazax!!!"
"Oops! It's summoning a super beast!"
Buck screamed and flapped his wings, breaking away the rubble that was pressing on him - when the roof of the building collapsed just now, he transformed into a dragon shape and protected several team members under the dragon wings.
Kel'Thuzad also gritted his teeth and said.
"It's not just super beasts, there are worse things! The curse has begun to take effect, which means those children will be transformed into faceless men! This matter must be reported now. It involves hundreds of children. If it cannot be solved properly...
…”
Kel'Thuzad could no longer say the following words.
The Faceless Man stretched out two tentacles and stirred gently in the air, and the specialized appendages on both sides of the tentacles twitched rapidly.
"Ah, you are anxious, what a wonderful feeling. You can kill me now, the curse has begun, and now it can run on its own without me."
Buck looked at the Faceless Man and wanted to spit out fire from his eyes, and the Faceless Man's whole body twitched again.
"Oh...it's awesome, it's hatred, a little stronger~"
The red dragon suppressed his emotions. He knew that the Faceless Man was deliberately provoking him to make him lose his ability to judge and waste precious time.
"Brian! Pick up Hiloma and follow me to fight the super beast!
Kel'Thuzad, take Anita with you and report what's going on here to your superiors. We need a force that can lift the curse, and we must save those children!
Jack, you stay and deal with this monster!"
Ignoring the Faceless Men's provocation, Buck gave the right order.
Brian climbed onto the rubble pile on the roof and roared towards the sky. The pterosaur that had been hovering in the sky and waiting for orders landed lightly in front of Brian.
"I'm going to pick up Shiloma right away. We still have some things to prepare. I hope we can make it in time."
As he spoke, Brian and the pterodactyl flew away like arrows. Kel'Thuzad also took out the flying carpet and changed its magic circuit to the fastest mode.
"We have all seen what it looks like when this curse takes effect. There is not much time to waste."
Before he could finish his words, Kel'Thuzad disappeared from everyone's sight.
Only Buck and Jack were left on the roof at this time.
"Jack, I'll leave this to you. I'm going to meet up with Nicks first. He should have been waiting at the agreed location with his equipment by this time. I believe that with your ability, you can definitely deal with this monster. Remember to join us after that.
."
After that, Buck flapped his wings and left, leaving Jack alone to deal with the Faceless Man.
Although it was a bit regretful that the entire special forces team could not be kept, keeping Jack here also fulfilled the Faceless Man's wish.
"That's great. It's you, the Giant of Light, who stays to play with me."
Jack's scalp felt tense for a moment.
"How do you know it's...what are you talking about?!"
This subconscious questioning and urgent change of words confirmed the Faceless Man's suspicion, and it actually walked towards Jack on its own initiative. Multiple pairs of tentacles stretched out from under its ribs, and one of the broken tentacles was shown to Jack.
"There are only two of us here, do you still need to pretend? We have been enemies in the universe for hundreds of millions of years. You can feel where I am, and I can also feel your presence.
This wound was left by you in the last battle. As long as you get close to it, the pain will become more intense. This pain that cannot be eliminated has turned into my hatred for you and become the nutrient that makes me stronger."
The Faceless Man said this, and Jack simply pointed it out.
"The Faceless Man, and the ancient gods who are the masters behind you, you are all cancers in the universe. I came to this world through endless time and space to fulfill my duty to eradicate you."
At this time, Jack couldn't tell whether he was Jack or the Giant of Light, and he naturally had a hint of divinity when he spoke.
The faceless man didn't feel afraid at all, but looked Jack up and down.
"Doing your duty? So you become one with a mortal? What a foolish move.
These mortals in Azeroth are the stupidest, most fragile, and most hopeless group of beings.
However, they are also my Lord's favorite beings and are the best works of the Curse of Flesh. These stupid mortals are always worried about falling into fear, and even worrying about falling into fear can become a kind of fear.
Such unbearable lives are just our food, how could you be stupid enough to become one with them?"
The Faceless Men mercilessly mocked the mortal race, while also mocking the giants of light.
At this moment, the face of the Giant of Light appeared on Jack's head, looking down at the Faceless Man.
"That's a big mistake. I see valuable qualities in these mortals. They have unparalleled courage and this power is extremely powerful."
The Faceless Man began to twitch like crazy again.
"It's really ridiculous. How many days have you been in this world? You have never seen how stupid and despicable they are. Their extremely poor self-control of emotions is enough to destroy you.
Don't rush to deny it, just like what I'm saying now, if I'm willing to lift the curse on the children, Team Jack, are you willing to let me go? Please have a negotiation with me."
