Everyone rushed forward and helped the mysterious man up. Lin Qian, with trembling hands, gently sniffed the mysterious man's breath, and his face suddenly changed: "He is still alive, but the situation is not good."

The mysterious man's eyes were half open, his gaze was sluggish, as if his soul was gradually being pulled out of his body. The corners of his mouth moved slightly, as if he was mumbling something. Lin Qian leaned in to listen, and could only vaguely hear a few fuzzy syllables: "Veil..."

"Veil?" Lin Qian's heart trembled, and she looked at everyone in confusion. Everyone was also confused, not knowing what was going on. But at this critical moment, they didn't have time to think about it, and could only place the mysterious man in a safe place first.

They found a hidden cave and gently put the mysterious man down. Lin Qian took out the first aid medicine from her backpack and carefully treated the mysterious man's wound. However, the mysterious man's injury was too serious, and blood continued to seep out of the wound, quickly staining the bandage red.

"We have to find a doctor, otherwise he won't last long." A teammate said anxiously.

Lin Qian nodded, but she knew in her heart that where could she find a doctor in such a remote place? She could only do her best to keep the mysterious man alive.

The mysterious man's breathing became weaker and weaker, his eyes were tightly closed, and he seemed to have fallen into a coma. But Lin Qian noticed that his fingers were still trembling slightly, as if pointing at his face.

"Is he talking about the veil?" Lin Qian looked at everyone in confusion again.

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, and finally, a brave teammate stepped forward and gently lifted the veil on the mysterious man's face. However, when the veil fell, everyone was so shocked that they were speechless.

There was nothing on the mysterious man's face! No facial features, no skin, not even a trace of flesh and blood! His face seemed to have been wiped clean of all traces by some mysterious force, leaving only a smooth mirror-like surface.

"This...what's going on?" The teammates' voices trembled, as if they had seen the most horrifying thing in the world.

Lin Qian was also stunned. She had never seen such a strange sight before. But after a moment of shock, she quickly came to her senses and realized that this might be the key to revealing the identity of the mysterious man.

"We have to find clues about this mysterious man, otherwise he might just die in obscurity," Lin Qian said. Her tone was firm, and her eyes were shining with an unyielding light.

Hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement. They knew that at this moment they had no choice but to move on and look for the secrets about the mysterious man.

They took the mysterious man with them and continued their journey to find the artifact. However, along the way, their mood became extremely heavy. The mysterious man's strange face was like a shadow hanging over their hearts, making it difficult for them to let go.

Finally, by chance, they came to an ancient library. The library has a rich collection of books covering history, mythology, magic and other fields. They hope to find clues about the mysterious man here.

Lin Qian led everyone through the bookshelves, carefully flipping through each book. Time seemed to stand still at this moment, with only the sound of pages turning echoing in their ears.

Finally, in a dusty ancient book, Lin Qian found clues about the mysterious man. The ancient book recorded that the mysterious man was not an ordinary person, but came from an ancient and mysterious race - the Faceless Tribe.

The Faceless Tribe live at the end of the world. They have extraordinary power and wisdom, but they also bear a heavy curse. Their faces have been erased, making them the loneliest beings in the world. However, it is this loneliness that gives them the ability to see through everything in the world.

"So, he is from the Faceless Tribe." Lin Qian muttered to herself. An inexplicable emotion surged in her heart, a mixture of sympathy for the mysterious man and awe for his extraordinary power.

Upon hearing this, everyone gathered around and listened carefully to Lin Qian's story. They knew that at this moment they had found the key to uncovering the identity of the mysterious man.

"Then why is he here? And why does he want to help us?" a teammate asked puzzledly.

Lin Qian shook her head and said, “There is no detailed record in the ancient books. But I think he may have left the Faceless Tribe’s territory in order to find some kind of relief. Helping us may be a way for him to find relief.”

Hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement. They knew that at this moment they had a deeper understanding of the mysterious man and had a deeper respect for him.

With this respect, they continued their journey to find the artifact. However, along the way, they encountered unprecedented difficulties. The men in black kept chasing them, and the artifact seemed to be hidden by some mysterious force, making it difficult for them to find it.

But no matter how difficult the difficulties were, they never gave up. They firmly believed that as long as they had faith in their hearts, they would be able to overcome all difficulties.

In a fierce battle, Lin Qian was accidentally injured and fell to the ground. The men in black took the opportunity to attack her, and the situation was critical. At this moment, the mysterious man suddenly stepped forward and blocked Lin Qian.

His figure shuttled through the black-clad crowd like a ghost, and his sword skills were sharp and swift, making the black-clad people afraid. However, despite his extraordinary strength, he was outnumbered and his body was gradually covered with wounds.

"Go! Leave me alone!" the mysterious man shouted. His voice was hoarse and firm, as if he was ready to sacrifice himself.

Lin Qian's heart tightened. She knew that at this moment they could no longer abandon the mysterious man. She struggled to stand up and rushed towards the man in black, waving her sword.

"We can't abandon him!" Lin Qian shouted. Her eyes were firm and resolute, as if she was ready to fight the man in black to the death.

After hearing this, everyone cheered up and started a fierce battle with the man in black. Their battle was so fierce that it seemed to tear the whole world apart.

Finally, with everyone's joint efforts, they successfully repelled the man in black. However, when they looked back at the mysterious man, they found that he had fallen to the ground, dying.

"He...how is he?" a teammate asked anxiously.

Lin Qian knelt beside the mysterious man and gently sniffed his breath. Her expression suddenly changed: "He...he is no longer able to survive."

Hearing this, everyone gathered around, looking at the mysterious man's empty face, and an inexplicable sadness surged in their hearts. They knew that this mysterious man who had helped them through countless difficulties was about to leave them.

"Thank you... Thank you..." The mysterious man's weak voice rang out. His eyes revealed a hint of gratitude and relief, as if he had seen their future victory.

"Don't say that. We should thank you." Lin Qian choked up and said. Tears flashed in her eyes, as if she had lost her closest comrade-in-arms.

The mysterious man smiled slightly, as if he had let go of everything. He slowly closed his eyes, and his body gradually became cold and stiff. At this moment, he finally got rid of the curse of loneliness and gained eternal peace.

Everyone stood silently beside the mysterious man to see him off. They knew that at this moment they had lost their most important partner, but it also strengthened their determination to move forward.

"Let's go and fulfill his last wish," Lin Qian said. Her voice was firm and powerful, as if she was ready to face any challenge.
