Chapter 425 Illustration Book
Azeroth Civilization: Beginning Great Pyramid Text Volume Chapter 425 Illustration Book At the moment when the black mist hider's plan to kill his mouth failed, the faceless man who was watching secretly made the decision to escape.
‘What Eternal Dragon, it’s just bragging, but in the end we can only rely on ourselves. '
The Faceless Man originally planned to kill Kel'Thuzad and Jack, but then it sensed that Buck was leading the team over, so he didn't dare to act rashly.
He hurriedly sneaked back to the stationery store to take away all the important things, and destroyed a batch of things that could not be taken away. After finishing these, he escaped through the back door and disappeared into the night.
The Faceless Man had just escaped here, and the Special Forces led the team and broke through the door of the stationery store.
Kel'Thuzad used magic to illuminate the dim shop. There were two houses in the front and back of the shop. The front house was the storefront, and the back house was used for living.
Seeing the ashes all over the counter in the front room and the mess in the back room, Kel'Thuzad uttered a terrible cry.
"It's broken, let it escape."
Kel'Thuzad was about to lead people to pursue him, but Buck went to the counter and squatted down.
"Stop chasing, the enemy is far more cunning than we imagined, and chasing at this time is likely to increase casualties. We might as well stay and see what clues we can find from here."
Buck picked up a pinch of ashes from the ground, rubbed his **** together, put it to his nose and smelled it.
"It's the smell of the shadow curse. This thing must be the key item for the faceless man to curse."
Then Kel'Thuzad also found out in the back room.
"Looking at the traces on the ground, this should be the magic circle where the Faceless Man performed the ritual. Although it took away all the props used in the ritual, it didn't have time to destroy the chiseled traces."
Buck got up and went to the back room. According to the layout of the house, this should be a bedroom, but there is not even a bed here, which shows that the owner here does not need to rest like a humanoid intelligent race.
Kel'Thuzad lay on the ground and rubbed the marks carefully, while saying at the same time.
"Captain, your decision is right. Rather than finding the Faceless Man, I think it's time to unlock the secret of the curse."
Buck just nodded and didn't speak. To deal with the minions of the ancient gods, it's best to figure out the curses they use first. This is the experience gained by the giant dragon in the long-term struggle with the forces of the ancient gods after the fall of the black dragon.
…
The search in the stationery store was still going on, and outside the store Jack chatted with the aunt who sold breakfast.
Seeing that Jack's whole arm was bandaged and hanging, the aunt was very concerned. Jack didn't care about his injury, but cared about whether there was anything abnormal here just now.
How could an ordinary old woman notice anything abnormal? But from her own point of view, Ai gave a piece of advice.
The aunt looked at the stationery store that had been forcibly broken into and searched, and suddenly said something that seemed irrelevant.
"It's getting light, people are going out into the streets, and the kids are going to school."
Jack carefully tasted these words, and soon understood the meaning of the words, and immediately trotted into the stationery store, during which Jack complained a few words that the excessive bandaging made him inconvenient to move.
"Captain, I suggest suspending the search and retreating first.
The object of the curse is the children. It is not yet known how the children are related to the stationery store. If the children see us searching here when they go to school, it is likely to panic and cause unnecessary trouble.
Let's evacuate first, and the children who go to school may only be confused when they see that the stationery store is not open, and they will not have other negative emotions. "
Buck thought for a while, and nodded in agreement.
"You're right, let's suspend the search and retreat, and analyze the clues we have first, but there must be someone here to stay and watch, so it's up to..."
Before Buck could make an assignment, Jack volunteered.
"Captain, just let me stay. I am familiar with the work on the street."
Buck subconsciously rejected Jack's proposal.
"No, you have suffered such a serious injury and still need treatment."
But seeing Jack tear off the bandage on his arm in threes and fives, he moved his arm and said.
"I've almost recovered!"
Buck, Kel'Thuzad and the other staff all looked at Jack in disbelief. Just over ten minutes ago, he was impaled in the shoulder. Even if the paladin has the power of the holy light, his resilience is too terrifying.
"Okay then, you stay here and watch, let's go back and report first."
Time was running out and it was too late to feel these things. Buck led the team to evacuate first, and Kel'Thuzad also needed further treatment. He didn't have Jack's strong resilience.
…
After Buck closed the team, he went to report to Li De immediately.
The matter of the Faceless Man and the Eternal Dragon seemed quite difficult now, so that Li De decided to miss the joint meeting again, and Nogfogg and Haggard participated in the voting on his behalf.
If it goes according to the original plan, the joint assembly has reached the final stage of electing the next committee member and chief. Due to the previous attacks by the Faceless Men and too many proposals for resolving disputes over the interests of various countries, the second stage was postponed for a few days.
"Let the Faceless escape...how did you do it?"
Li De frowned, and Buck and Kel'Thuzad felt a little embarrassed, especially Kel'Thuzad, after all, he neglected to consider the Eternal Dragon during the investigation stage, which led to the fact that he did not do a good job of keeping secrets and alerted the target.
"Please rest assured, as long as the Faceless One wants to reconnect to the curse, we will be able to find it. The Eternal Dragon has suffered a lot of magical backlash, and should not be able to interfere with us in a short time."
Only then did Li De feel a little relieved.
…
Meanwhile, Jack was watching the situation at the school gate. The children were entering the school gate one after another, and Jack noticed that at least one-third of the children had to turn in front of the stationery store before entering the school gate.
It's just that these children are destined to be disappointed today. Seeing the closed door and the "Closed" stationery store posted, these children seemed a little anxious and stopped for a while before leaving.
There were also some smart kids among them who chose to ask the people nearby who might know what was going on, and such kids naturally came to the breakfast stand.
As expected of Van Cleef's mother, the aunt knows how to keep secrets strictly. She doesn't know the answers to the children's inquiries, but only smiles kindly.
In the distance, Jack found his acquaintance among these children again, the little boy Tull who was rescued by him.
Convinced that Tull had something to do with the curse, Jack quickly walked up to the child and patted him on the shoulder.
"Ah, Uncle Jack."
Seeing Jack Tull was thrilled, and even the boy himself had doubts.
'Shouldn't I feel close when I see Uncle Jack? Why should I be afraid? '
"Come with me, I have something to ask you."
Jack couldn't care less about acting in front of the child now. He pulled Tull to the side of the road away from the crowd, put his hands on the boy's shoulders, squatted down and looked him in the eye.
"Tell, tell me, what do you want from the stationery store?"
Hearing Jack's question, the boy suddenly felt panicked, UU reading www. uukanshu.com pursed his lips and did not speak.
Jack calmed his emotions with a soft tone.
"You have to trust me, Tour, I am concerned about your safety."
The little boy hesitated for a while, finally nodded his head weakly, took out a stack of cards from his schoolbag, and said in a tearful voice.
"I didn't do anything, I just bought some small illustrations to read, every time I read it, I would have nightmares, but I don't know why I just want to read it all the time..."
illustration! This is the second time Jack has heard it. He also heard it at the aunt who sells breakfast before. The Faceless Man is very fancy about this thing.
Jack took over the stack of illustrations from Tour, and at the same time released a soft holy light to soothe Tour's emotions.
"Don't worry, you won't have nightmares anymore. Go to school and leave it to me. Next time, if you have something similar, you must tell your mother in time, or you can come to me."
The comforted little boy nodded heavily, and then ran away quickly.
Jack left with a heavy expression on his face, because from these cards, Jack sensed the profound shadow curse energy!
This shadow is hidden very deep, not to mention ordinary monks of the holy light, even high-level priests or paladins can't easily find it. If it is not for the power of giants, he will not be able to see through the clues.
As the children entered one after another, the flow of people at the school gate gradually thinned out.
The school bell rang, and the street in front of the school was quiet again. After confirming that there should be no more gains here, Jack brought these cards full of weird stories to meet Buck and the others, and took them to meet Li De.
