Naturally, Dole went looking for the Faceless Monster.
He passed through the wall with Aixi, moving through the space within it as they searched for the places where, according to those people, entire teams had been wiped out.
Before long, Dole found several passages thick with the scent of blood. They slowly approached and investigated them one by one.
The first and second were not it. When they reached the third, Dole found the Faceless Monster lying on the ground, slowly devouring the flesh of the people there.
Although the Faceless Monster was a silicon-based lifeform, its energy consumption was largely the same as a human's. It would occasionally eat things like soil and minerals, which made it vastly different from humans.
The moment Dole saw the Faceless Monster, he struck without a word. He directly unleashed the most powerful Thunder Summoning Spell at his disposal. A thick, enormous bolt of purple lightning was summoned from the void and crashed down onto the Faceless Monster's head.
Rumble.
Because it was an ambush, by the time the Faceless Monster sensed the energy fluctuations, the Thunder Summoning Spell had already been cast. It only managed a slight defense before the lightning struck its head with a roar, followed by a second bolt, then a third.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
