"What, it's getting bigger? But relatively speaking, I think you're still a coward! Dubin shouted at the giant bobbit worm, "You're just a fat bug with a little toughness, I'm not afraid of you."

At the bottom of the chaotic sea, after the sharks had just eaten the Dongdong Monster, the Dongdong Monster's blood had not had time to stain the red sea, and it was immediately disturbed by the giant insects that broke out of the rocks to scatter the last traces of the shark school and the Dongdong Monster. It's like the development of the giant worm that made the Dongdong monster a sacrifice, pitying such a loyal and scheming military advisor.

Although it was early in the morning, there was still very little light on the bottom of the sea. In addition, the giant insects sprang out and stirred the seabed, making the seascape look particularly dark and oppressive. Such a view often gets the adrenaline pumping of sharks and Dubin, and the smell of blood and chaos is often the most adaptable to sharks, even if a terrible beast appears in front of them.

Therefore, Dubin is still calm and calm in the face of the huge and friendless Bobbit worm, which is worthy of a generation of heroes.

The giant worm twists its body adaptively to warm up, then shakes its huge head and turns to Dubin. Originally, it lacked eyes, but other sensitive senses made up for it, especially its five tentacles. At Dubin, it opened its mouth and exhaled a foul-smelling stream of water from its throat accompanied by a low purring sound that vibrated far and powerfully, like a warning signal.

Finally, after Dubin opened his mouth to greet the giant worm, a voice came from the giant worm's throat. The voice, though muffled, was still recognizable as Arcantero's:

"Dubin, I have to admit that you are a very tough person, and you can fight against the world in order to protect your family. I know that you feel that every one of your family members, especially Kiki, is responsible for my death. I also deeply regret this, but if you were me, what would you do? Besides, you also killed my military advisor, so you should be able to release your suspicions! ”

"What? Listen to what you mean, you are trying to calm my anger and let me kill Dongdong Monster! How can you even trade the lives of your own subordinates? Will you do the same to me in the future? ”

"Dubin, don't think so, my subordinates have been lost one after another, and I'm also sad. That's why I have to work harder and not let them die in vain. Only when I succeed can I comfort them that they did not die in vain, and that the death of each of them is very meaningful. If you want to be more successful, you often have to pay the price first. From the throat of the giant worm came the deep voice of Akentero, which was full of a certain coldness and determination, and seemed to have a melancholy that was difficult to detect: "Have you forgotten how we met in the first place, and how we made a covenant? Will you break our covenant of life and death because of the love of children and the shortness of heroic breath? ”

"Of course I have not forgotten," said Dubin, "that you crawled out of the pile of corpses in the final battle between your father Liz Sinroe and my uncle Gabrin with your wounds. And I ran from the rear to look for Gabling's body, and we met. Although you were seriously injured, you were still able to easily defeat me as a teenager. We were enemies of each other, so we fought for several days. In the end, I lost, but you didn't kill me. I didn't understand the reason at first, but you told me that one of the reasons for the merfolk's civil war was their own disagreement about protecting their territory and the ecological balance in their territory. For example, when it comes to the level of protection that terrestrial humans on land should maintain, most of the fragile but dangerous terrestrial humans do not understand: the oceans and some of the organisms in the oceans work to produce nearly half of the planet's oxygen, more than any forest on land. And by taking advantage of the natural characteristics of the composition of ocean water, more than 90 percent of the viruses on the planet have been eliminated. Protects vulnerable populations of terrestrial organisms, including ignorant terrestrial humans. But terrestrial humans are destroying the environment and plundering all kinds of resources. Uncontrolled indiscriminate fishing and killing of marine fish and organisms for consumption, as well as the continuous dumping of garbage and pollutants into the ocean, damaging the marine environment. In the end, whether or not to protect terrestrial humans became one of the important reasons for the merfolk civil war. ”

"Very well, as you remember, it was at that time that we began to form secret alliances, in order to create a new order and balance." A deep dialogue came from the throat of the giant worm: "Then will you still be on the same side as me?"

Du Bin was silent at this time, he didn't answer immediately, he was already hinting at the enemy, what he wanted to say:

"No, look at yourself, in order to gain stronger abilities, you have turned your evolution into a curse, and you have also turned yourself into a half-mermaid, half-zombie monster. So it gave me the intention to rethink the alliance problem, and I think that the path and method I want to take to dominate the ocean are getting more and more different from the direction you are taking. I can't agree with it. ”

"Why? Do you agree with the absurd rhetoric of the conceited patriarchs in the Taiping Imperial City, babbling on and on emphasizing the arguments that God has its own arrangement, the reincarnation of cause and effect, and the dogmas that paralyze the stupid? A rapid sound came from the throat of the giant worm.

"If you want to talk about the past, I don't believe it. Now, I don't believe it either. But the question is, what does it matter if I believe it? The patriarchs used to say that the creator god divided the physical biosphere into sea and land, and that there was no reason for only one of the two to have an evolutionary human race. If there is an ocean, there should be children of the sea; In the same way, since there is land, there should be a land of wisdom. The merfolk race and terrestrial humans are supposed to be dependent on each other and help each other. It's just that the current terrestrial humans don't understand us, and our evolution is too far from theirs to understand them. So they are often afraid and hostile to our presence, so we have to avoid them. The patriarchs' words are not profound, but I don't feel that there is anything wrong with them.

I don't know how to think about those big truths, the classic theories in the mouths of the elders of the Imperial City, saying that the mermaid race should not interfere too much in the social activities of terrestrial humans. That would be very narrow-minded, and terrestrial humans would call themselves human, and other creatures would feel inferior. If they see us, they will be called aliens or krakens, sharks, fish demons, etc. I also understand that it's not that we're afraid of terrestrial humans because we're always hiding from them. Even if we are not their gods, even if our physical strength, evolutionary ability, life expectancy, etc. are superior to theirs, do not harm them for no reason. These are also moral principles that all intelligent races understand, and there is nothing unacceptable when you think about it. ”
