I traveled through time and space and became the Archbishop of Stormwind!

What was born from the giant rat's corpse was the monster that had impressed Alvin so deeply in his previous life, the Faceless Man, nicknamed J8 Face.

Legend has it that shortly after the birth of Azeroth, there were several ancient gods who dominated the world on the continent. They were deeply rooted in the underground of Azeroth. They were C'Thun, the "Thousand-Eyed Demon", Yogg-Saron, the "Thousand-Maw Demon", Y'Shaarj, the "Seven-Eyed Black Sheep", and N'Zoth, the "Thousand-Bearded God".

They established the first terrifying dark empire in this world.

When the Titans discovered it, it was already too late.

If the Old Gods were to be pulled out of the world, the interior of Azeroth, which had already been deeply penetrated by the Old Gods, would also collapse.

So they had to seal all these ancient gods deep underground.

The origin of the Faceless Men is said to be the tentacles that fell from the ancient gods during the Dark Empire period, combined with the dark energy that filled the world at that time to form creatures.

This monster possesses immense strength and the ability to wield shadow magic.

Logically speaking, it’s not time for the ancient gods to start taking action yet.

The Faceless Man's eyes were sunken on both sides of his head, without eyelids, like two black stones, flickering with a muddy dark light.

Those eyes seemed to be able to look straight into the depths of the soul, making people shudder.

The monster had no nose. Where the nose should be, there were only two black nostrils.

It doesn't have a mouth in the normal sense, with only an upper jaw below its nostrils. From deep inside its mouth are countless tentacles like octopus legs. The tentacles keep wriggling, occasionally revealing the mouthparts hidden inside. There are several layers of sharp teeth alone!

The Faceless Man let out a low roar and approached the crowd with heavy steps. The cave was shaking under his footsteps.

"Who can tell me what this monster is?!"

Mekkatorque smiled wryly.

"Why was it born in a mouse's body? Is it some new type of mutant mouse?!"

"Back off, everyone, back off slowly!"

Alvin kept releasing Holy Nova to illuminate the tunnel while stopping the restless dwarf special forces.

"This guy is called the Faceless One! He's a follower of the Ancient Gods. I've only read about him in books, but I didn't expect to meet him here!"

"This guy can use shadow magic and is extremely powerful. He's very dangerous!"

"Then what are we going to do?"

Caponia was almost going crazy. The girl hated rats by nature, let alone the current environment - dead rats everywhere, and a strange monster born from the dead rats!

"It's difficult for us to move in the dark, and the train has broken down. I'm afraid it's impossible to escape back to Ironforge..."

Alvin made up his mind.

"Observe carefully, find the weakness, and kill it with one strike. We must kill this monster right here!"

"Hahahaha, good boy! I thought all priests were cowards who liked to stay in the back! I didn't expect you to be so reckless! Just my type!"

Mekkatorque laughed loudly.

The dwarves seem to have an ability to remain optimistic in any situation. Even if their friends die tragically in front of them, they can still quickly get over the sadness and continue their journey.

"You can't win..."

A voice rang in Alvin's ears, deep and hoarse, like the words of a drowning man uttering from lungs filled with seawater!

The Faceless Man spoke human language?

"Can you talk?"

"certainly......"

The Faceless Man stopped and stared at Alvin with his two dark eyes.

"I don't know how long I've been asleep... I thought I would sleep forever..."

"But I never thought that in this dark underground, there would be my compatriots..."

Fellow countrymen?!

"So we're just fellow countrymen meeting each other?"

Alvin swallowed, wanting to talk to him first, delay some time, and then observe.

"It's wrong of us to disturb your sleep. I apologize to you. So, could you please let us pass?"

"...Haha... Funny guy, don't you know... we rely on cannibalism and killing each other to improve our abilities?"

The Faceless Man let out a sinister laugh.

"My luck is really good. I just woke up and ran into a weak compatriot. If I devour you, I can recover 80% of my strength..."

Damn, I hit the target!

But when he said compatriots, could he be referring to Xal'atath in his arms?

Alvin's hand couldn't help but reach into his arms, but this touch made him sweat profusely...

Originally, Xal'atath only had a hilt, but I don't know when it was restored to a complete dagger!

How is this going?

Could it be that Xal'atath grew back the lost blade himself?

"..."

"Alvin..."

I could hear Caponia's voice beside me, and the elf was looking at Alvin with a worried look on his face.

"Who were you talking to just now? What does it mean when fellow villagers meet fellow villagers?"

Calpurnia took a deep breath.

"Could it be... he's talking to a monster? But, but why can't we hear him speak?"

"It seems to be some kind of telepathy!"

High Craftsman Mekkatorque said from the side.

"This is truly amazing! Telepathy? This could be a great research topic for us!"

"Don't worry, I'm afraid this guy can talk to my heart directly through telepathy. It seems that this guy is a bit hospitable and doesn't want to let us go!"

Alvin smiled bitterly.

"Haha, then let's let him know who is the real owner of this tunnel!"

Mekkatorque shouted, holding up his wrench, and the gnome squad cheered loudly in response to their leader.

"Quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack."

The Faceless Man raised his head high and let out a shrill laugh.

"You pathetic creatures, none of you will survive!"

The monster screamed and suddenly crouched down, with its two thick tentacle arms digging into the ground beneath its feet.

In an instant, a strong, extremely uncomfortable shadow energy began to rage in the air, and the earth was quickly corroded, instantly turning into graphite black.

The scope of corrosion spread rapidly, and the corroded land began to vibrate violently. Black tentacles broke out from the black soil and grew wildly upwards!

"Tiny ants! Creatures of the Guardians! Wait to become my food!"

The Faceless Man's shouts rang in Alvin's ears.

"Retreat! Get to higher ground!"

Alvin pushed the frightened Caponia and Alkaritasa back.

"Retreat! Brothers!"

Mekkatorque roared, and everyone shouted and turned to run towards the tunnel behind them.

Higher, higher, where is the higher place in the cave?

Alvin's brain was spinning rapidly, and he suddenly came up with an idea!

"Train! Climb to the top of the train quickly! Akalitassa, you go up first to meet us!"

She was the tallest among these people. Since Alexstrasza had stimulated the energy in her body, the girl was now half a head taller than Alvin.

Akalitasa nodded. Her long arms, long legs and great strength became a great advantage. She jumped lightly and grabbed the edge of the train roof with both hands. With a little effort, she pulled her body up.

The girl then lay down on the roof of the car, sticking her head and hands out, ready to help others.

Irvin didn't care about anything and squatted down to pick up Calpurnia's calf with his arms.

"what!"

Amid the elf's screams, she was lifted upright and sent upwards. Calpurnia did not dare to delay and quickly stretched out her hand.

Akalitasa was quick-witted and quick-handed. She grabbed Caponia's hands and gently lifted the girl onto the roof of the car!
