A long sound came from the bottom of the sea, and suddenly a strange fish with eight fins appeared in the dark sea bottom. It soared freely in the sea water like a bird, swimming quickly in the direction of the current.
Its bumpy back actually carried three people. At this time, the Demon King took Reina and Eva together and swam towards the queen.
"What a convenient pet. How did you deep-sea tribe tame this kind of marine creature?"
The Demon King asked Eva beside him.
"Lan Lan is no one's pet, she is my best friend."
Eva answered quickly, seeming to care about this strange fish.
"Everything is fine, so how do you get your friends to listen to you so much?"
"They say Lanlan is my friend. Don't treat her like an ordinary fish. She understands our language. If you say this to her, Lanlan will feel unhappy."
Eva frowned slightly and said somewhat unhappily.
"Then can she talk?"
"No, but it doesn't matter. We can become friends even if we don't understand the language, just like Linne and I."
The Demon King looked at her without changing his expression.
"Even if I get my friend's name wrong?"
Hearing this, Eva was stunned for a moment.
"Then what's her name?"
"Reina."
"It's my fault, but talking to you makes me very irritated. I feel like you don't respect Lan Lan. Do you know that feeling when someone talks bad about your friend in front of you?"
Eva said angrily.
Compared with before, her tone was very good, and she never turned her face away and ignored people.
The devil was silent for a few seconds.
"I don't know, I have no friends."
"well?"
Eva blinked and looked at the Demon King's face in disbelief, realizing that his expression did not look like he was joking.
"No, no matter what, I should have one or two friends..."
she asked awkwardly.
The devil didn't speak, as if he was thinking about something.
friend.
For him, a demon king, this is impossible. What is a friend?
He thought of Sieg and the brave men he had trained. Do they count?
The Demon King sighed.
"Um, sorry."
Eva looked like she had done something wrong.
"Then how did you make friends with this fish?"
The devil suddenly asked.
"It's Lanlan! Not a fish!"
"It's not a fish?"
"It's a fish! But she's not the kind of fish you said! Hey! I know why you have no friends anymore. Your personality is not likable at all." Eva said immediately.
The Demon King shrugged.
"Maybe."
"Okay, I've convinced you. Lan Lan and I met when I was very young, about six or seven years old. At that time, I didn't like staying in the palace and I often sneaked out to play."
"You can see it, otherwise I wouldn't have been caught in a fishing net." The devil said lightly with a slightly curved corner of his mouth.
Eva's eyebrows pinched together and she resisted the urge to curse. She shouted loudly:
"Once! When I was playing outside, I encountered danger. Do you know the undercurrents under the sea? To put it simply, I was dragged to other places and was alone."
As she spoke, Eva's voice became smaller and smaller.
"She appeared when I was most helpless."
She touched Lan Lan's back and recalled the past.
"Then it saved you? And just listened to you?"
The Demon King felt that it was a bit childish.
"Although the result is like this, the process is not as easy as you said. You know? When you are at your most desperate, the feeling of being helped by someone who has nothing to do with you is almost like that."
Eva closed her mouth and showed an unhappy expression. At this moment, Lan Lan let out a long whine, as if in response to her.
Hearing what she said, the devil recalled the past.
In the dark forest, there are scary shadows everywhere, and the wind howls like a ghost.
In a patch of grass full of thorns, there was a place that was very neatly arranged, with hay intertwined regularly and many white feathers hanging on it.
This is a bird's nest, but the original owner has left for a long time. A thin child with wounds and two small horns on his head is curled up in the bird's nest, shivering.
Just when he was about to fall asleep forever, a strange figure appeared in front of him...
The Demon King showed an empty look in his eyes.
"So, from then on, we became the best friends. Hey, are you listening?"
"Um? Sorry, I was a little distracted."
His empty eyes suddenly regained their vitality.
"Ah?! How could you do this? Forget it, I won't say anything anymore. You don't want to hear it anyway."
The Demon King smiled helplessly.
I really didn't expect that he would actually recall the past. Is he really old?
The bubbles split into two halves on his face, moving towards both sides of his cheeks.
…
The deep-sea army is advancing, but problems soon arise.
"Are you sure this is the direction?"
Andrew, who was at the front of the queue, asked Gianna.
Jaina held the map of the Abyssal Tribe with her forehead furrowed.
"If nothing else, it must be in this direction, but I lost my staff and can't accurately grasp the direction of the city."
Hearing this, Andrew and several Deep Sea Tribe soldiers showed unhappy expressions.
"My dear human princess, we have left the fate of the Deep Sea Tribe in your hands! Please don't give us uncertain answers."
"That's right, and we only have three days of food. This team is not a trained soldier. It is difficult to maintain discipline. If there is a storm, we will probably scatter into a plate of sand."
"Many people in the team are already dissatisfied. We have to find ways to appease people. It's best not to stay too long."
Many sounds came out at the same time, which made Jaina feel a lot of pressure. She gritted her teeth lightly, and she didn't have much confidence in her heart.
"Everyone, please calm down. According to the ocean currents, the compass, and the magic that shows the direction, this road will definitely take us to the land."
Jaina said.
"But we can't just find a piece of land to land on. We urgently need a large city that can support 200,000 mouths."
Andrew shouted with some excitement.
Jaina took a deep breath. There was only so much she could be sure of now. What else could she do? She had risked everything to do this.
However, just when Jaina was in trouble, some people suddenly shouted.
"What is that?"
"It's a human hunting ship! Be careful!"
"What! Is this really a trap!"
Suddenly the Deep Sea Tribes panicked, and the team was immediately in disarray, with many people holding weapons and preparing to fight. Jaina immediately looked in the direction they were pointing, and saw a strange ship appearing on the horizon. That ship
The bow of the ship is surprisingly large, and there are two huge front teeth.
"Wait a minute! Give me the telescope quickly!"
Jaina immediately shouted. She took the telescope and saw a few people standing on the ship. One of them was the captain of the Beaver, Mad Bert, and there was also a deputy-like person standing next to him.
"Don't worry! We are our own people, they are coming to pick us up."
