Extraordinary Puppeteer

Chapter 25 The Faceless

Elena also said with a look of fear at this time: "It's fortunate that you arrived in time, otherwise I wouldn't be able to support it for long."

Holden said with a gentle face: "Where, thanks to classmate Carlin who stopped my carriage in time."

After finishing speaking, he looked at the altar in the center of the square, and said with a solemn face: "This kind of ritual altar is not something that ordinary wild extraordinary people can arrange. It seems that there may be a cult group in Wayne City that has been hiding under our noses." !"

Hearing this, Elena's face became serious: "You're right, you can't make this kind of arrangement without a certain amount of financial resources. The ritual of summoning the Faceless from the spirit world is very rare, and those who fanatically believe in it" Breeders' and 'eaters' cultists have the best chance."

Karin, who was listening, remembered the term "Faceless Man" in his heart, but what he is most concerned about now is not the issue of this altar, but another imminent issue.

"How do we get out next?"

After hearing Karin's words, Elena said directly: "We just need to wait."

Before Carlin could show his confused expression, Horton took the initiative to explain to him: "According to the ritual level and danger level of my previous investigation and divination, this place should not be far from the clinic, no more than 20 meters away.

As a wide and confined space, it is likely to be located underground. We don't know anything about the layout here, and rash actions may touch unknown organs or circles, causing some danger. "

Elena also explained: "It's enough for Kahn and the others to worry about finding the mechanism and breaking the barrier. Compared with our strength, he can easily deal with sudden threats."

After listening to the explanation of the two, Karin nodded to show that he understood.

After the crisis passed, the four of them relaxed for a while, and Karin asked curiously: "Is the monster just now called the Faceless Man, do you seem to know it?"

"The Faceless are the initial state of many flesh-and-blood evils.

After a person dies, the soul will return to the sichen representing January—the evening bell and the sichen of February—day. If you touch the former, you will degenerate into an evil spirit, and if you touch the latter, you will be baptized by light and enter the mortal world to become a new life. .

The flesh and blood of the deceased may be transformed into a faceless person under the influence of Si Chen, the mother of mothers, who represents reproduction and rebirth, and the missing facial features represent the ignorance after rebirth.

After birth, all faceless people will be summoned by the sichen, the breeder, who represents growth, to grow in their spiritual realm.

The newly born contact-level faceless ones generally have the abilities of life, and they can also make screams that affect the soul.

And at the apprentice level, all the faceless people are uniformly transformed into the image of a red-skinned faceless swordsman holding a big sword.

After growing to the professional level, their facial features will also become clear, and they will grow into different types of evil things. "

After listening to the profile of the Faceless Man, Karin asked curiously: "Then they can be regarded as the breeder's family?"

Elena said with a strange expression: "No, it's more like food than relatives."

"Whose food?"

Hearing Karin's question, Miss One Ear suddenly said with a gloomy expression: "It's food for all of us!"

A chill rose in Karin's heart, he was taken aback by Elena's sudden change of expression.

"What is food for all of us?!"

After seeing Carlin's expression, Horton said with a smile: "Hahaha, Teacher Elena still likes to tease her students so much.

However, her words are not wrong to a certain extent, because after the naturally grown Faceless Man lineage evil is killed, the spirituality contained in the corpse is relatively pure.

Flesh, bones, and soul are all excellent extraordinary resources, and it doesn't take much effort to purify the pollution. "

"Oh, so that's what you mean by food." Carlin suddenly realized.

"Yes, remember the Geese you killed earlier?
The evil thing he transformed after death was not a faceless man, but another evil thing—a ghoul. The spiritual pollution in the corpse was relatively serious, and it would take a lot of work to deal with it, so it was only worth selling it to Drake. 50 gold pounds. "

"Why did the mother, the mother, and the breeder cultivate a strange evil like the Faceless Man? No matter how you look at it, it looks like it is to provide resources for us extraordinary beings in the mortal world." Karin suddenly felt very strange.

Elena shrugged her shoulders and said: "It's just so inexplicable, only they know what the twelve ministers are thinking in their hearts, and it's only natural that things involving them are absurd."

After Karin heard this, he didn't go any further.

And Elena said to Holden at this time: "Thank you this time, I want the body of the Faceless Man, can you make a price?"

Karin on the side didn't interrupt. Elena's rescue tonight was all due to Holden and Guo Zilian's coachman, and he and Elena wouldn't open their mouths to distribute the six Faceless Swordsman corpses as spoils of war.

As for what to do with the altar in the end, it is a matter between the Ranger Club and the Ace family, not the four of them.

And Holden said: "Teacher, you can't say that. Without you attracting the attention of all the Faceless Swordsmen, and without the news of Student Karin, we would not be able to kill these guys easily. You should get two."

"Then we won't be polite," Elena didn't refuse after hearing this, and walked towards the corpse of a Faceless Man she had killed before, saying as she walked, "Karin, come here!"

After hearing this, Karin also followed behind the other party. Just as he passed by the corpse of a Faceless Swordsman killed by Horton, a vague sense of crisis emerged in his heart.

This feeling made his steps pause, but immediately the sense of crisis disappeared without a trace, as if it were an illusion.

Although he felt strange, Karin just wrote it down but didn't say anything, and continued to follow behind Elena calmly.

Looking at the faceless swordsman who had two holes in his head by a bullet on the ground, he sighed in his heart that no matter how skilled in martial arts he is, he is afraid of bullets.

Although he didn't have an intuitive impression of the Faceless Swordsman's strength, he also knew that it wouldn't be a big problem for the opponent to kill him, a rookie.

However, Elena took out the opponent with two headshots.

Karin even guessed that if the opponent's revolver had only six bullets, and there was no chance to reload quickly after shooting, maybe Miss Ear could handle six Faceless Swordsmen by herself.

At this time, Elena put on a pair of rubber gloves, and took out a very clean looking silver knife in her hand.

Then she skillfully sliced ​​open the Faceless Man's chest, exposing his entire chest cavity.

Karin, on the other hand, admired the internal organs of the Faceless Swordsman without changing his face. He even had the mind to observe this organ system which was different from that of human beings.

Unlike humans, the chest cavity of the Faceless Swordsman was almost completely filled with a kind of red spongy muscle tissue, and no blood flowed out.

And from the spiritual perspective, the spiritual light of the Faceless Swordsman's corpse is very pure and orderly, no wonder Elena used food as a metaphor before.

Elena, on the other hand, cut through the cavernous tissue while explaining to Karin.

"This special muscle has good strength and resistance to blows, and has a certain degree of spiritual resistance and conductivity. It can be used to make some equipment such as boxing gloves, leather armor, and backpacks.

Of course, some people use it as an ingredient. Although I have never eaten it, I have heard that it is very good in terms of nutrition and taste.”

Karin, who didn't change his face while watching the anatomy, felt a little nauseous when he heard that red muscles could be used as food. No matter how the Faceless Swordsman is a humanoid creature, he couldn't put his mouth down anyway.

"Well, I may be out of luck."

After Elena cut open layers of muscle tissue, a palm-sized red spar was revealed. After cutting off the muscle tissue connected to the spar, she took out the spar and handed it to Karin.

"This can be regarded as the heart of the faceless man. Holding it in your hand, you can directly absorb the spirituality to supplement your own consumption. It is also a good potion material. Restoration and growth potions are used as the main ingredients."

Karin held it in his hand and looked at it before returning it to Elena.

Then Elena put the target on the head, and directly cut open the faceless swordsman's head.

Miraculously, when the silver knife touched the hard skull, it cut open the skull as easily as cutting tofu.

'Is this a transcendent item specially used for dissecting corpses? '
