Dean knew that what she said was right, but …
"Can you survive in the sea?" Dean looked at the darkness in front of him. Although he couldn't see Daina, he could feel her breath. He knew that she was in front of him. Since she had chosen this path, it showed that she had some assurance.
"If there is no accident, I should be able to survive." Daina whispered.
Dean's heart shivered. He didn't expect her to have such an ability. He gently sniffed and smelled Aisha's scent. His heart was a little relaxed. He knew that she wouldn't leave him halfway when they entered the sea. His heart was somewhat grateful.
However, she knew that he should have a purpose for bringing her along.
"Can we get out of the belly of the sea monster?" Dean asked.
Dana said in a low voice, "I can't. If we go out now, there will be other sea monsters outside. We will be torn apart. This is my temporary shelter."
"Shelter?" Dean's heart moved: "Did you intend to let this monster swallow us?"
"Yes."
"Why did you betray your father?" Dean looked at the darkness in front of him. He knew that Daina could see his expression, so he didn't hide his suspicion.
The air fell into a brief silence. After a few minutes, Daina's voice sounded again with a bit of a mocking tone: "Father? From your human point of view, he gave birth to us. He is indeed our father. But you have seen that in his eyes, we are just tools for his experiment. Do you know what he calls me? "
"What?" Dean was surprised. Wasn't she called Daina?
Daina seemed to see Dean's expression. She chuckled with a bit of sarcasm: "We have two names. One is Daina. This is the name he uses when there is no one around him. But when there are other 'Dainas', he will use another name to distinguish us. For example, my name is' No. 67 '!"
"No. 67?" Dean was startled. His pupils shrank: "Is that the serial number he used to train you?!"
"Birth …" Daina's lips twitched when she heard this word. "That's a good description. It's indeed a birth. In fact, I'm not the last one to be born. There are many more after me. However, as you can see, there aren't many who are still alive. The other 'Dainas' all died in his hands and became his experimental subjects."
Dean felt a burst of palpitations and inexplicable sighs although he had expected it.
Earlier, when Boro picked up the tortured Dinah, that gentle movement and extremely gentle gaze made him feel as if he was looking at himself. Anyone would think that he was a loving father, but who could have expected that he had personally buried so many of his "beloved" Dinah?
"Perhaps you don't know how it feels to personally send the dissected and buried 'Daina' into the furnace. For me, they are me, and I am them." Daina's voice was a bit sad. She didn't have the arrogance of a queen like before. Instead, she made people feel pity for her. "I was lucky. I was lucky enough to survive."
Dean was silent for a moment: "He named you 'Daina'. This name should be very important to him, right?"
"What's the use? We are not the real 'Dainas'. We are just experimental products. A substitute. A puppet to comfort his lonely heart. Nothing more. "Daina sneered.
Dean thought of Daina who was infected with the virus and Boro's indifferent attitude towards her. He knew that Daina was right. These clones were just experimental products made by Boro. It was a sad existence.
"The other two seem to be loyal to him." Dean suddenly thought of Dana who had tried to kill him several times before. Her loyalty to Boro was obvious, and it didn't seem like she was pretending.
"Of course." Daina's tone suddenly became indifferent. "He wouldn't dare to keep us around if we weren't loyal enough. There was one who was ready to betray him and escape from the devil's cave. But he was aware of it in time."
"So, you hid it very well." Dean said in a relaxed tone.
Daina didn't reply and didn't say anything.
The darkness fell into silence again.
Dean felt that the surrounding flesh wall was slightly squeezing and shaking. It seemed that the sea monster was swimming at a very fast speed. He couldn't help but ask: "Are we going to stay in its stomach? What if it runs into the deep sea?"
"No." Daina indifferently said.
Dean heard her confident tone and was stunned: "Why?"
"Because I'm controlling it."
Dean was stunned by Daina's answer. He was about to say something when he thought of Daina's magic mark ability. She was able to read memories. The premise of reading memories was obviously that she needed to connect to his brain. Could it be … that she could also connect to the brain of the monster?
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt that this ability was really too awesome!
Why didn't he have such good luck to meet such a powerful legendary monster?
Otherwise, he felt that his life would be much easier. He could have unified Silvia and even reached the Shenluo Empire in advance by relying on the correct route to read the magic mark. He could have relied on this ability to mix into the level of the Lord of the Abyss and spy on countless empire secrets.
Dean's thoughts continued to drift for a while. With a violent jolt around him, he came back to his senses. "What's wrong?"
Daina didn't speak. It seemed that he was the only one left in the darkness.
Fortunately, the faint snorting sound told him that Daina was still there.
After a few minutes, Dean felt that the twisting flesh wall around him became loose again. At this time, he heard Daina's voice: "We just met a hunting monster and almost had an accident. Fortunately, we were lucky enough to meet a powerful sea monster when we entered the sea."
Dean was relieved and then smiled bitterly: "It should be considered bad luck, right? We were swallowed as soon as we entered the sea. What kind of monster was it? Was it killed? "
As soon as he finished asking, he heard Daina's angry voice: "It was me, idiot!"
Dean: "…"
"It's my second demonic body." Daina rolled her eyes and explained.
Dean came to his senses. He thought of the changes in Daina's body before she entered the sea. It seemed that she swallowed him to provide him with oxygen while hiding her smell.
There was a trace of strange expression on his face as he thought of the hideous mouth that was still fresh in his memory. How big was the demonic body to be able to swallow him?
"Since you have this demonic body, why didn't Boro let you enter the sea to control a monster and take us to travel at night?" Dean thought of another thing and immediately asked.
After a while, he heard Daina's indifferent tone: "It's my secret. He doesn't know about it."
"Secret?" Dean was even more surprised: "Didn't he implant your magic marks into your body?"
Daina didn't answer Dean. Apparently, she didn't want to tell this secret to Dean.
Dean was puzzled. He felt that with Boro's cautious personality, Dana's hidden rebellious heart couldn't be detected because her acting skills were high enough. But it was a bit inconceivable that she could hide the secret of her body.
"Why did you take us with you?" Dean changed the question.
After a moment of silence, Daina opened her mouth again. Her words made Dean's whole body cold: "Probably because we are almost the same."
"Almost? What almost? "Dean's body was unnaturally stiff.
Daina's voice came slowly. "I've seen all your memories. You're just like me. We're all orphans. Hehe, if there's a chance, I really want to show this world that if it can abandon me, I can destroy it!"
Dean was startled. There was some complex feelings in his heart: "It was Boro who abandoned you. It has nothing to do with the world."
"No!" Daina's voice was sonorous and decisive: "He is just a part of this dirty world. It is the world that made him dirtier. One day, I will personally purify the world!"
Dean slightly opened his mouth but couldn't speak. He didn't expect that her mind was hiding such extreme thoughts. It was like she was possessed. She got evil from one person and then turned to hate the whole world.
"Don't you hate the world?" Daina seemed to see through Dean's thoughts. Her tone was somewhat cold: "I know that although you don't say it, but you are the same person as me. You really like the old era of your childhood. That clean and beautiful world is not the world you grew up in after you woke up. So you learned to kill people. The more you kill, the more you kill. But your heart doesn't feel guilty. For you, they are like animals from another world. You can't even call them 'the same kind'. There is no mercy in people's heart when they hunt the aliens."
"So for this world, you are the real devil!"
Dean was startled. After a moment, he slowly shook his head: "What you said is wrong."
"Wrong?" Daina's voice was cold and there was a trace of displeasure.
Dean didn't show any fear: "I never thought about killing people at first, but I felt the threat of death. When I felt that people wanted to kill me, and could even kill me without paying much price, I really woke up. The first time I killed someone was an old alchemist. It was a mistake. It was at that time that I experienced the feeling of killing."
"A lot of things are like this. When you start it, you can't stop it."
"In particular, more and more people made me feel that they should be killed. Even killing them is not enough as a punishment!"
"It's a pity that death is the most severe punishment."
"Haven't you ever hated?" Daina asked coldly. Her tone was full of disbelief.
Dean knew that she wouldn't believe him even if he denied it. But he didn't want to deny it: "I hated when I was in the most desperate situation. But that desperate attitude wasn't permanent. When I got rid of that mentality, I didn't hate anymore. I knew who my enemy was and who I should kill."
Daina sneered: "Stupid."
Dean wasn't angry. He felt that after saying these words, his mind became purer, as if it had been baptized. He recognized his goals and his beliefs more clearly.
But …
There was always a worry in his heart, like a heart disease.
"Maybe one day, when I am completely desperate, maybe I will really become like you, wanting to destroy everything." There was a bit of confusion in his eyes as he muttered to himself.
Daina slightly sneered, but didn't say anything.
After a long silence, Dean heard a roar coming from outside. His heart shivered, and the next moment, he felt his body being slammed against the meat wall on the other side.
"Damn it!" Daina cursed in a low voice.
At this time, Dean felt the soft meat wall around him became as hard as a steel plate. His body shook left and right as if the sea monster's body was swimming forward at high speed.
Bang!
Bang!
The sound of impact came from time to time.
The sea monster's body twisted and turned crazily, and Dean's body followed it.
After ten minutes, the battle outside was over, and peace was restored again.
Dean was relieved to see the sea monster was still alive. He said to Daina: "Can it hold on until the shore?" The previous battle was so fierce that it was estimated that the sea monster had suffered a lot of injuries.
"It depends on luck." Daina replied.
Dean was slightly silent. In this boundless sea, there were countless monsters. It really depended on luck.
"This world is really terrible …" He sighed softly in his heart, thinking that if they were unlucky and this sea monster was torn apart by an even more terrifying monster, they would inevitably be buried in the stomach of the fish. Perhaps, that would be the end for him.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel regret.
Suddenly, he thought of something and asked: "Is there any monster over the sea? Why can't we fly over at night?"
Daina snorted and said: "Do you know what is on the other side of the sea?"
"Isn't it the Eastern Continent?" Dean of course remembered.
"Then do you know what is in the Eastern Continent?"
"What?"
"Another empire."
Daina's words made Dean's heart jump. His previous guess was once again confirmed.
There were survivors in the Eastern Continent.
"An empire like the Shenluo Empire?" Dean couldn't help but ask.
"Otherwise, why is it called an empire?" Daina asked.
Dean choked and then asked: "But what does it have to do with not being able to fly over the sea at night?"
"Idiot!" Daina snappily said: "There are thunderbirds over the Shenluo Empire. Naturally, there are defenses over the Eastern Continent's empires. They are the flame birds we met before! These flame birds live in the clouds, and it is said that they feed on sunlight. So we can't fly too high, or it is easy to alarm them. If we fly too low, it will attract the attention of some of the terrible monsters in the sea. These monsters live in the deep sea. Some of them have extremely poor eyesight and are almost blind. Some of them have very good eyesight and have adapted to the dark environment of the deep sea. Those monsters with extremely poor eyesight will turn a blind eye to the monsters swimming in the sea, but will regard the flying monsters as prey. "
