The Giant of Light stood behind Jack and hesitated. He was not hesitating about the conditions offered by the Faceless Man, but was worried about whether Jack could maintain his firm belief.
The giant has visited many worlds and seen too many people being bewitched by the ancient gods and the faceless men.
The faceless man's so-called negotiation is obviously a trap, just to tease people's luck. If there is even the slightest lack of firm will, a heavy price will be paid.
But in this matter, the giant couldn't help Jack make a decision.
He became one with the young man because of Jack's bravery, but not all problems can be solved with passion, wisdom and willpower are equally important.
It's just that no one else can interfere with personal growth, and Jack can only make correct judgments on his own.
Fortunately, Jack did not disappoint the giant.
"Negotiation? Are you mistaken? It is a life-and-death struggle between us. You will not let us go, and we will never let you go!
Put away this set of demagogic tricks, and we will do our best to save those children. As for you, just go to another world and clear the way for your master!"
Jack pulled out his new weapons: a tactical cudgel and a Nick gun, and pressed forward step by step towards the Faceless Man.
The faceless man was intimidated by Jack's momentum and stepped back involuntarily.
It burned almost all of its life force to accelerate the curse, so that with only this skin left, it was no match for Jack in a fight.
"Are you sure you want to kill me? This curse cannot be compared to ordinary wounds infected with shadow poison. You can't break it without my help. I am very important to you."
The faceless man threatened without giving up, which made Jack see through its fierceness and inner lust.
"Oh, for me now, it's very important not to have you."
"boom!!!"
Jack resolutely shot at the Faceless Man. As the trigger was pulled, a bullet filled with the power of the Holy Light was shot into the Faceless Man's body.
"this……"
Until the moment before his death, the Faceless Man could not believe it. Tol'vir, the Troll Empire, the Battle of Quicksand... He who had marched forward bravely and achieved great achievements in so many dynasties and eras, actually died in the hands of an unknown person like this?!
The power of the holy light exploded within the faceless man's body, destroying the twisted skin to pieces.
Jack inserted the unused short stick back into his waist and looked at the Nick gun in his hand with satisfaction.
'What a nice weapon.'
After calming down, Jack turned around and faced the shadow of the Giant of Light.
"What I did didn't disappoint you."
The Giant of Light nodded firmly in approval.
"Jack, from now on, we are the closest comrades-in-arms."
From this moment on, the Giant of Light truly became one with Jack.
Jack felt physical changes: stronger strength and mental power, as well as a massive amount of knowledge poured into his brain in an instant.
After taking several deep breaths to adapt to the change, Jack turned his attention to the black-purple energy column that shot straight into the sky.
"This curse is connected to the children's spirits and cannot be forcibly destroyed from the outside world. I can only try to unlock this curse from the spiritual level."
After possessing the knowledge of the Giant of Light, Jack quickly discerned what kind of curse it was. He sat cross-legged on the ground and closed his eyes, and then his soul stood up from its original position.
This was Jack's first conscious out-of-body experience, and this feeling was particularly wonderful.
At this time, he had no intention of experiencing this wonder carefully, so he ran quickly towards the energy column and crashed into the curse.
This vicious curse exists attached to the dreams of children. Children have unrestrained imagination, and the dreams they weave are also cheerful and beautiful with the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers.
But at this moment, no beauty can be seen in this dream. The soft green ground is torn and devastated. Fire and smoke can be seen everywhere. In the firelight, there is a huge figure that is wreaking wanton destruction.
"It's Super Beast! Hazax!"
Jack recognized him at a glance, and immediately opened his arms and transformed into a giant of light, attacking Hazax.
'Wait! We can't act recklessly!'
Just when Jack was about to deal a heavy blow to Hazax, such a voice sounded in his subconscious.
Jack then paused his attack and observed carefully. The images of children were adsorbed all over Hazax's body. In other words, attacking Hazax like this now would be equivalent to hurting the souls of the children.
The children and Hazax are tightly bound and inseparable from each other. Jack originally wanted to use telekinesis to separate the super beasts from the children, but his telekinesis is also a form of the power of the Holy Light, which affects the super beast formed by the aggregation of shadows.
No matter how you control the power of the beast, it will definitely affect the children.
"You really can't act recklessly. I'd better leave here first and meet with the captain and the others. After reporting the situation here, we can think of a solution."
Jack had no choice but to walk out of the children's nightmare, and his soul returned to his body. Just as he was about to leave here first, Kel'Thuzad took Anita back here on a flying carpet.
Kel'Thuzad glanced quickly before speaking to Jack.
"Are you done here? The Faceless Man is dead?"
Jack nodded and answered in the affirmative, then pointed to the cursed energy pillar.
"I tried to undo this curse, but after observing the curse, I gave up."
Kel'Thuzad stopped the flying carpet ten centimeters above the floor, stepped off the flying carpet with Anita, and said with a particularly serious expression.
"Thanks to you for choosing to give up. After the Holy Light and the Shadow come into contact and offset each other, the aftermath is extremely powerful. It affects the lives of hundreds of children. You'd better not act rashly. Someone who knows better about curses than us will be here soon.
."
Just as he was talking about this, Niebuhr and Noggenfogg arrived here with two warlock apprentices riding manticores. Looking at the mess on the top floor, Noggenfogg couldn't help but feel heartbroken. He had put so much effort into the Gadgetzan Hotel.
It is no less impressive than the racing circuit of Shining Plains.
Niebuhr walked to the energy column and swallowed hard.
"It's so scary, such a large-scale curse...burning vitality speeds up the process of the curse...I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do..."
Noggenfogg calmed down and came to the energy pillar, lighting up an evil flame in his hand.
"Can I just burn it with evil energy?"
Niebuhr quickly stopped him.
"Don't! The children's spirits are entangled in this curse. If the curse is burned now, the children will not be saved."
As soon as he finished speaking, a huge falcon also flew here, converged its wings and landed among a few people. At the same time, its feathers faded and its body began to lengthen.
"He's right, you can't burn it directly with evil energy. This curse kidnapped the children's spirits and occupied their dreams. This malice also spread to the Emerald Dream.
If you directly use evil energy to burn the entire curse, not only will these children be ruined, but it may also cause harm to the Emerald Dream, thereby causing an even greater disaster."
After finishing speaking, Falcon completely transformed back into Malfurion's appearance.
Hearing the two people say this one after another, Noggenfogg was a little frustrated.
"If we have no strength, we can't do anything."
Niebuhr also felt powerless.
"The main reason is that we don't understand the specific spiritual aspects of this curse. If we rashly act on the curse from the outside, it is likely to make things worse."
Jack couldn't stand it anymore. This outspoken young man expressed his opinion without thinking too much.
"Why not go directly into the curse and observe the curse from a spiritual level?"
Niebuhr and Nogfogg both looked at Jack with wide eyes.
"It's good to be young. You are really energetic. Do you know what you are talking about? Observing from a spiritual level? You must be out of body if you want to do this!
There is no great shaman here, and we know nothing about soul spells. And even if there is a great shaman present, we can't do what you said. The elemental spirits are not good at dealing with curses."
Noggenfogg said angrily.
Only then did Jack realize that because he had received so much knowledge from the Kingdom of Light at once, his thinking was a little confused, and he completely forgot that the things he had learned at his fingertips might be as difficult as the sky for others.
However, Malfurion gave the opposite evaluation.
"No, this is a good idea, but it needs to be modified slightly. Although we can't get out of the body, we can take a detour from other places, such as... the Emerald Dream."
When Malfurion said this, his eyes were fixed on Jack, and he sensed an extraordinary aura from this young man.
Jack felt uncomfortable being stared at by Malfurion. He was not ready to reveal his identity yet, so he immediately grabbed Kel'Thuzad and Anita and said to Malfurion and the others.
"I'll leave it to you first. Let's go support the captain and his friends. They really need our help right now."
