"Ice Worm King?" Dean slightly raised his eyebrows. But then he thought about it. People had different ranks, kings, beasts had territories, and insects naturally had a king.
Suddenly, he thought of the spaceship under the ice lake where the Arctic Ice Dragon lived. There was a strange insect at the core of the unknown substance that stretched out like a tree branch. Could it be the Arctic Insect King?!
If that was the case, wouldn't he have missed the opportunity to obtain it?
A chance to become a king was in front of him?!
"What's wrong? Nervous?" Boro felt that Dean's heartbeat had suddenly accelerated. He looked at him with interest, his eyes deep. "Or have you heard of the Ice Worm King somewhere? Or have you seen it before?"
"It's impossible to say that I'm not nervous." Dean pretended to be very indifferent, but at a glance he could see that he was deliberately pretending. "This is the first time I've heard that there is a king among the ice worms. It's very difficult to subdue the ice worm king. The strength of the ice worm king should be stronger than the abyss, right?"
Boro glanced at Dean and said indifferently, "It's slightly inferior to the lord of the abyss. But it's often surrounded by groups of Ice Worms. It's very difficult to catch it. Many lords of the abyss who had reached the bottleneck tried to catch the Ice Worm King, but they were careless and became the worm's food. So the road to the king isn't that simple."
"Then why not ask the king for help?" Dean was curious. It should be known that the existence of the lord of the abyss must be the top of the empire. The empire was controlled by seven kings, which meant that it was divided into seven camps. There was no neutral faction that didn't join the king's camp. It meant that they would be the enemy of all the kings. So since there was a king who joined the camp, then it was naturally the best to ask the king for help. Once successful, they would become the new king and it would also strengthen the faction of the previous king.
"Ask the king for help?" Boro sneered, "If the king knew about the existence of the Ice Worm King, why would he share it with others?"
"Is the king not the limit? It can continue to improve?" Dean was surprised. "Just like the abyss, the more ice worm kings it absorbs, the stronger it gets?"
Boro sneered. "Of course not. To us humans, the Abyss Master is already the limit. As for kings, heh, who knows if they can even be considered 'humans'. When they see the Extreme Ice Insect King, they will only destroy it. To them, they only need one true king!"
Dean was startled and found it hard to understand. "But aren't there aliens waiting for an opportunity outside the War God's Wall? The stronger the empire is, the better. One more king means one more strength, and we can even completely expel the aliens. Why do we need to suppress them? Could it be that they were afraid of seizing power? But can't they think of other methods to control him? Obtaining a king as their servant should be a supreme glory and vanity, right? "
"What does the outsiders have to do with them?" Bo Luo sneered. "Do you really think the outsiders can harm them? The world is so big. Even if the Empire is destroyed, they still exist. If a king wants to escape, there should be no one who can stop him. Unless the Aragami that has already passed away is resurrected, but that is impossible. The Aragami have already gone extinct. Forget it, you won't understand even if I tell you this. "
As he spoke, he lowered his head and continued to dissect Dean's abdomen. He slowly removed a part of the intestines and organs inside.
Dean's face turned ugly. First, because of Boro's words, and second, because he saw his intestines being pulled out and cut. No matter how good his psychological quality was, he felt numb in his scalp and goosebumps all over his body. He was full of horror and fear.
He turned his gaze away, no longer looking at his abdomen. In order to get rid of the image that lingered in his mind, he continued to ask, "You said that king tiers can no longer be considered humans. What is the reason for this? Could it be that their way of thinking has already been changed?"
"Almost." Boro did not even raise his head. He was concentrating on what he was doing.
"Is there a big gap between the Ice Worm King and the Ice Worm King? Those who can become the king should be the best among the Lords of the Abyss. How could their thinking be changed? Is there no magic mark that is unaffected?" Dean continued to ask. Anyway, he had become a fish on the chopping board. His life and death were unknown. He was not afraid of offending Boro.
Boro was not angry. After hearing Dean's words, he glanced at him and said, "Who told you that the change of thinking is because of the magic mark?"
"That is?"
"The Ice Worm King is not only a nutrient but also an energy source for the evolution of the human body." Boluo said indifferently, "You should know how tenacious the life force of the Extreme Ice Insects is. It surpasses all the creatures on Earth, and the Extreme Ice Insect King has reached the extreme in this aspect. Apart from the high temperature of the sun, almost nothing can destroy it."
"Lightning, low temperature, crushing … all of them are useless."
"No matter how small the crushing is, it is still alive. It lives as a fragmented individual. When countless separated individuals get close to it, it will gather and be reborn!"
"I have said it so clearly. Do you know the reason now?"
Dean was startled. Suddenly, his face changed.
Although Boro did not say it clearly, he had already thought of the answer. Nothing could destroy it. This meant that the Ice Worm King was not like the Ice Worm King. It could not be absorbed by the human body as a nutrient for evolution.
In other words, when the Ice Worm King was absorbed into the body as a nutrient, it was actually providing the Ice Worm King with the ovaries. The Ice Worm King would grow in the human body and even divide and reproduce!
No wonder Boro said that the king might not be called a "human".
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a chill in his heart. Could it be that the bodies of the seven kings in the Empire were nurturing the Ice Worm King? Then was it themselves or the Ice Worm King that was controlling their bodies?!
If this was the only way to become a king, then wasn't it a road of no return to self-destruction?!
While Dean was lost in thought, Boro had already stitched up Dean's abdomen and helped him to untie the shackles. He carried him to the bed next to the bed and took out the shackles to lock his hands and feet. Then he went to another cabinet and rummaged through it. There were transparent glass bottles soaked with all kinds of strange things. There were eyeballs, strange tongues, beating hearts, huge stomachs and so on.
