54. Purification (I)
"Do you have any feelings, little Yuna has been weird lately?"
In New Stormwind, in the mansion of the thief girl Vanessa, Dernan who came here as a guest helped Vanessa clean up the table and said to his best friend:
"She hasn't bothered me for days, that little fool has always avoided us, no longer pestering us to play cards with her, I went to her house yesterday to have a look, she actually cleaned the house, and the squirrels that Salantia bought for her haven't fed for days, she used to be very precious to those squirrels."
"Oh, yes, and this!"
Dornan took out two pieces of food that resembled small round sticks in a strange, non-paper, non-paper, flexible package, and Dornan tore open the package and handed one to Vanessa, who looked suspiciously at the rich aroma in her hand, put it under her nose and sniffed it, and then said to Dornan:
"What is this? Does it smell like candy or something, is it a new chocolate made by the Gilnesian company? ”
"It does taste a bit similar, but I stole it from little Yuna's cupboard."
Dornan winked at Vanessa, and the big girl lowered her voice:
"Yuna has a lot of this kind of stuff hidden there, I've seen her hide in the corner of the Dark Temple and eat this kind of thing before, after I found out, she still pretended to be stupid, but it's weird, she's an undead, although the form is weird, but she shouldn't have a sense of taste, why would she eat these things? Did she regain her sense of taste? ”
"Wait!"
Vanessa stretched out her finger to brush away Dornan's eyelids, she looked at Dornan's beautiful eyes seriously, and said seriously and worriedly:
"Have you eaten this? It can be toxic! Don't forget, some special toxins can cause the undead to taste again, hell! How long have you been eating? Come with me to the hospital! ”
"Nope."
Dornan opened Vanessa's hand, she took a bite of the chocolate bar in her hand, and while chewing, she said to Vanessa:
"I've tested it with elemental magic, and this thing has no toxins, uh, if I have to say, there are some ingredients in it that are not so healthy, probably because of this, Yuna felt the taste, so she hid so much, but this thing is really delicious, you can taste it."
At Dornan's instigation, Vanessa took a careful bite...
Ten minutes later, two sneaky figures ran out of Little Yuna's house in Midnight Garden, carrying two bags full of Yuna's private "treasure" food.
Dornan, who was wearing a mask, looked left and right, and then said to Vanessa beside him:
"Aren't you curious? Where did Yuna find these things? ”
"I'm curious."
Vanessa glanced back at Yuna's house, and she lowered her voice and said:
"So I put a tracking gem on Noor's clothes for Yuna to wash the bear, and the next time she goes to get them, we'll find out her little secret, hmph, that little fool dares to hide it from us... Be sure to give her a good look! ”
On the other side, Yuna, who was hiding in the world of Argus and playing a game of blocks with a strange engineering instrument in her hand, suddenly felt a chill, she poked her head out vigilantly from her hiding place, looked left and right, but did not find any demons or people approaching, the little ghost scratched her head, and no longer cared about these things.
She sat comfortably back in her "secret base", leaning back on a small couch that didn't look like Azeroth's production, the stone mountain was littered with wrappers of all kinds of food and drinks, and it was as dirty as a garbage heap, and Yuna didn't care about the environment, she skillfully turned off the block game on the mechanical instrument with her fingers, and then clicked on another icon.
Yuna rubbed her hands, the little face was full of excitement, at her feet, the gathering circle left by the twins was slowly running, the faint dimensional rift beating around Yuna, maintaining the operation of some of the signals needed by the mechanical instrument, the little ghost stared at the shining screen in front of her, she whispered:
"It's fun gacha time again... This time, be sure to draw out the SSR! ”
And a few seconds later...
Yuna let out a cry of frustration... She threw aside the mechanical instrument in her hand without interest, then rubbed her stomach, and after playing the game for 2 days in a row, she was also a little hungry, the little fool licked her tongue, and then picked up a colorful order table from her hand, and finally settled on a food that looked delicious.
"Hmm... Try it today, uh, how do you read this thing? ”
“pi... zz... a? ”
————————————————
In the world of Azeroth, beneath the endless depths of the ocean, the Void Sanctuary Storm Crucible, once set up by Enzos at the intersection of the void and the present world, this "temple" of endless twisted flesh and blood, has now become a dead ruin.
Half a month ago, when the Fallen Titan Agrama reached out to grab Enzos out of the icy waters, the Storm Forge was not far away, but it was affected by the powerful power of the Fallen Titan, and everything in it was destroyed in an instant, and even the entire Storm Furnace completely collapsed under the vibration of that terrifying power.
Recently, the Titan Guardians have cleaned up the ruins of the sleeping city of Neolosa under this deep sea, where the Faceless Ones have been completely cleared by the attack of the Darkblade and the Thunderforge Legion, and the city has also collapsed by nearly two-thirds, and there is still the ruins of a Void Gate, which is extremely dangerous for mortals, and it is impossible for the Titan Guardians to allow such a dangerous thing to be exposed to the present world.
As a result, they built a permanent fortress here, covered it with pure Titan energy, and stationed an entire Thunderforge legion here, while the Darkblade Legion had withdrawn a few days earlier, leaving only one observation post here.
In place of the Darkblade Legion is a whole clan of Warhammer Lizardmen who have migrated from the world of Draenor, and these warriors loyal to the Old Saints have reorganized a second line of defense beyond the Titan Enchantment, and the Lizardmen have made the trench their own gathering place. Warhammer lizardmen have been blessed by the Old Sages, their resistance to the Void is the highest in Azeroth's flesh life, and they are so powerful that they can live in the depths of the sea, so it's only fitting that they should guard this secret place.
However, the Nagas have a lot of complaints about this, the Nagas think that the entire deep sea is their own land, 2 days ago, there was a group of radical Naga who tried to expel the lizardmen here, but they were beaten by the brave lizardmen warriors with hammers, 3000 Nagas, were beaten by 300 lizardmen, and finally even alarmed Queen Aishara, who was recuperating, and the queen talked to the leader of the lizardmen, anyway, the matter was finally over.
Under the Queen's orders, the radical Naga generals had to pinch their noses and recognize the lizardmen's dominance over the dark trench, a new deep-sea race has risen, and in the future era, the Endless Sea is no longer the Naga's deep-sea empire, but this is actually a good thing...
At least for Queen Azhara, it's a good thing.
"Sir, we've found it! ”
At the observation post in the ruins of the sleepy city of Neolosa within the Titan Enchantment, a field agent of the Darkblade Intelligence Bureau reported to the high-ranking agent in charge of the area, Lady Mareth:
"It's in the ruins of the Storm Crucible, badly wounded and delirious, and our agents are guarding it, twisted but not aggressive, and seems to have the last thoughts."
"Huh?"
Agent Maraester, who was looking through some documents, frowned, and after a few moments, she changed into a suit of armor that could move under the deep sea, followed her agents, and entered the collapsed Storm Forge in the dark currents, where the Titan Guardians of the Thunderforge Legion had cleared a path, and Marais followed the cleared path all the way, and after a few minutes, she was in the deepest part of the Storm Furnace.
There are still some twisted flesh and blood with the power of the Void left here, but because the largest source of the Void under the deep sea has been destroyed, these disgusting flesh and blood are also quickly withering, as if they are about to die, and in the deepest ruins, there are two corpses of the Faceless, which are the sleepless secret party loyal to Enzos, they were affected by the power of Agrama, and they almost died on the spot.
Even the disgusting flesh on the bodies of the two faceless ones already showed signs of decay, and the smell was disgusting.
At the other end of the ruined dead end, several agents were armed with tubes of green liquid, looking strange, but with extremely oppressive ray guns for the flesh creatures of the Void, surrounding a weak, twisted, dark Faceless, with the wave of a finger, the pathetic Faceless would disappear from the world completely.
Destroy all the forms and gods.
The reason why they haven't fired a gun yet is because of the Faceless's special status.
He is also a member of the Darkblade Intelligence Agency, to be precise, a temporary agent, who has been given the most dangerous mission, stepping into this place of death, it is because of his sacrifice that the Darkblade and the Guardians can accurately locate the location of the Storm Forge and Neolosa, these two places do not fully exist in the present world, if you rely only on human power to search, I am afraid it will take years.
From this point of view, the contribution of this victim to this battle is indelible.
And now, he had become a pathetic void creature, the power of the void extending over his body, and the unknowable mutation had made him lose his human or undead form, like a real, cursed monster.
"Sir, don't go near it!"
As Marais walked towards the faceless one huddled in the darkness, her high-ranking agents stopped:
"It's dangerous..."
"The Void's invasion of this world has long since failed."
Marais looked back at his subordinates, and the short man said:
"We can put to death the gods of the ancients, but are we still afraid of a faceless one? Besides... He's his own person! The Darkblade Intelligence Bureau, and even the Darkblade Legion, have never given up on the rule of their own people! ”
The high-ranking agent was about to say something, but at the sight of the Chief's eyes, he silently stepped back, and behind him, the agents also raised their ray guns.
Marais looked at the huddled Faceless, ugly, as ugly as all the Void creatures, but its posture was nothing like that of a chaotic Void creature, it turned its back to the agents, and seemed to be whispering.
As Marais approached, she faintly heard the faceless one's obscure, muffled voice:
"Delia... Delia... I'm going to find you... Wait... Wait for me... I'm going to find you..."
"Flynn?"
Marais stretched out her hand, and she called in a low voice:
"Flynn. Favind, can you hear what I say? ”
"Huh"
A twisted piece of flesh slammed into Marais's feet like tentacles, and the Faceless One seemed to be stimulated, and it stood up in the darkness, roaring like a beast, the twisted flesh looked terrifying, and behind Marais, the agents pointed their ray guns at the Faceless One, but Marais stopped by him.
"Stop! Don't hurt him! ”
Marais stretched out her hand and shook it at the agents behind her, while she relaxed her body and looked at the void creature in front of her, who was several meters tall, he had no eyes, Marais couldn't guess his current situation, but she could see that the faceless man's left arm turned into a tentacle was still clutching a necklace, and in the dangling necklace, there was a Delia. Vortagen's magical image.
Obviously, the reason why he has been able to hold on until now, and he has not lost his last mind, is entirely because of the strong obsession attached to this chain.
That's his lover...
He did it all for Delia, not for anything more profound.
"Flynn! Calm down! ”
Marais held out her hands to show that she had no ill will, and in the chaotic roar of the Faceless One, she walked forward and whispered:
"You should still know me... I'm Marais, and I've been ordered to reclaim you... If you remember Delia, stick with it... We will heal you, but if you lose the last of your sanity and fall into the void completely..."
"Then you'll never want to see her..."
"Delia..."
The Faceless One hissed the name in a low, chaotic voice, which seemed to be the last pillar of his spirit, and the twisted flesh tentacles on his body slowly retracted, seeing this scene, Marais breathed a sigh of relief, and the high-level agent gestured, she whispered:
"We're here to help you now! Don't struggle... Don't resist... You'll see Delia soon, I swear..."
Behind Marais, the agents used special chains to bind the Faceless One in the darkness, but did not take away the necklace from his tentacles, which was the last thing he used to maintain his sanity.
"Send it back, Sanderson."
Marais said to his adjutant:
"You personally send it to the Duke of Berval, and then tell the Duke everything you know, I believe..."
"The Duke will give him a fair trial."
