"That's impossible. I've never heard of such a thing. You must be lying to me."
Eva was unwilling to believe their words. She thought that this was Richard's scam.
"Whether you believe it or not, this is the truth."
The Demon King said to her.
"That's too much. To think that you would do such a thing." Gianna frowned and looked at those deformed fishmen with pity.
As a princess, she knew that this kind of thing often happened. It was just that most people did not know about it.
"If this is true, then why don't you hate me? Logically speaking, as a member of the royal family, I should be the target of your hatred. "
Eva gritted her teeth and asked.
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the surroundings closed their mouths. Suddenly, this dark space fell into a deathly silence.
This made the four of them feel a cold chill coming from behind. They knew that there were hundreds of eyes staring at them, but they could not see the feeling. It was really terrible.
The old fishman with barnacles on his head lowered his head and slowly swam forward.
"Your Highness, to be honest with you, the people who still have reason here are just like you said. We hate the royal family, no, we should say that we hate all the members of the Sea Race who abandoned us."
"Then why …"
Eva did not continue speaking. She seemed to have noticed something.
"Do you want to ask why we are so polite to you? We know very well that the people who came here are just like us. They were all abandoned by their clansmen. They were either born with disabilities, contracted strange diseases, or because they did something wrong, or because they were ostracized by others. "
"In the long years we've lived at the bottom of the sea, we've become clear about one thing, that is, we shouldn't vent our anger on people who have the same experience as us. As long as we're in this hell, you're our family."
After some understanding, they found that the people of the Sea Race trapped here, although they looked scary, were very kind. The leader of the fishmen did not say his name. He said that names had no meaning in this place, including the past.
He took the four of them to walk around this extremely dark hell. The surrounding fishmen also curiously followed behind them.
"Is there really no exit here?"
Gianna suddenly asked.
"No, there isn't. No one has ever left here alive. There is only one way to leave here, and that is death."
The other party replied.
"Wouldn't it be boring to be trapped here for the rest of your life?"
Reina suddenly asked.
Hearing this, the other party was silent for a few seconds.
"Perhaps, but we don't feel anything anymore."
"What do you usually do?" Eva couldn't help but ask.
"Look for food. Many things are swept down here every day, including our food. We just need some time to catch it."
As soon as he said that, an unsettling vibration came from the surroundings. Dust and small stones kept falling from the top of his head.
In an instant, the people following behind him suddenly disappeared into the darkness.
Then, the old man brought the four of them to the place where they slept. It was a place full of strange seaweed that covered the ground like moss. There were even a few murlocs lying on it with their eyes covered.
Soon, a few people swam over with fish in their hands. They bit the fish into pieces and fed them to the sick murlocs on the ground.
"Master."
Seeing this scene, Reina couldn't help but look at her master, as if she wanted her master to help.
The Demon King slowly shook his head.
"I can't do anything." After saying that, the Demon King turned his head and looked at the old man.
"To be honest, I admire you. You can still survive in this situation. Don't you feel pain?"
Hearing this, the old man showed a sad smile and shook his head.
"Pain? Haha! Hahaha! It's because of pain that we can survive. All of us here have the same pain. "
The old man suddenly shouted. In an instant, he showed an appearance that didn't look like an old man.
Perhaps he wasn't old, but living in this place for a long time made him ugly and wrinkled his skin.
The Demon King frowned. The magic here was very strange. It was more than ten times denser than outside. It was just that the magic here had been settled for too long and had undergone strange changes, making it difficult for the human body to use.
He didn't know what effect living here for a long time would have on the body, but it was definitely not harmless.
"You will also become a part of us. Come, accept our welcoming ceremony."
The old man suddenly said.
Suddenly, several fishmen holding bright red things appeared in the surroundings.
"What is this?" Gianna asked vigilantly.
"It's a kind of fruit that grows here. It's very delicious. Because it's very rare, we leave it as a welcoming gift for the new members."
Hearing this, the four people fell into silence.
They had never seen these fruits before. They were bright red, like a heart, and they were still beating. It was very disgusting.
Thinking of eating this kind of damn thing, Eva couldn't help but retch and almost vomit.
No one would want to eat this kind of thing, even the Demon King was no exception.
Judging from his experience of living for so many years, this damn thing was definitely not a plant. Moreover, the magic it emitted was very unknown. He didn't know what the consequences would be if he ate it.
When his eyes turned slightly red and saw through the bodies of these people, he immediately fell into shock.
These fishmen, no, they shouldn't be considered fishmen. Their internal organs were completely different from Eva's. It was like a huge insect had replaced their internal organs. Even the most important heart had disappeared.
"There's no need for a welcoming ceremony. We don't plan to join you, and we don't plan to stay in this kind of place for the rest of our lives." The Demon King said.
Hearing this, the surrounding fishmen suddenly quieted down.
The atmosphere instantly became terrifying. Gianna slowly held Reina's hand. The four of them moved closer to each other, just in case.
The old man's face became frightening. His mouth was half open, and the muscles on his face were constantly trembling.
"No, no, don't eat!"
"Don't eat?"
"Don't eat??"
Everyone around repeated this sentence, as if it was an endless echo.
"Then, you will become our food."
The old man suddenly said such a sentence, his eyes suddenly became cold.
"Run!"
Gianna immediately released magic. However, in this deep sea, her ice magic was not very useful. Moreover, the magic here was strange, weakening her magic.
But she still made a few mirror-like ice walls. Suddenly, a dazzling light flashed, illuminating the surrounding people and making them cry out.
"Ah!!!"
"Run!"
"But where to?"
"Don't worry so much, just run."
"Let me go! If you want to leave, leave by yourself! "
The Demon King pulled Eva and brought them away from here, swimming towards the depths of the darkness.
"Don't let them go! Chase after them! "
Those terrifying fishmen immediately chased in the direction where they escaped.
