The Dark King

chapter-952
Zach and Jason didn’t expect that Dudian’s vigilance was so strong that they felt that it was a bit redundant. However, they agreed with Dudian’s point of view because of the one percent possibility that Dana was playing dumb.
They only had one life. They didn’t want to take risks unless it was necessary.
In the next few days, Zach, Jason and Dudian used all kinds of methods to test Dana. For example, two of them went out to hunt while one of them stayed behind to guard. The guard’s attitude was more casual. Either he had his back to Dana, or he would be attracted by the sudden appearance of the small monster and walk away.
Diana seemed to be really stupid. She would only lie on the ground and laugh foolishly.
Dudian tried to deliberately dig a hole for Diana during training to test her reaction. However, the response was still a silly smile.After a few days of trying, the three of them were finally convinced that Diana was really crazy. or her acting skills were so profound that there was no flaw!
“This is brown leaf juice. It can cover up the smell on our bodies.”When Zaite went out hunting, he brought back some thick and plump leaves. With a gentle kneading, he could make a dark green juice, “In case we suddenly meet her father and we don’t have time to react. “Although we have been constantly changing locations to cover up the smell, there will still be some flaws. A senior once told me that as long as it appears, it will definitely leave something behind. When we meet someone with strong perception, it will be a fatal flaw!”
“Brown Leaf Juice?”Jason saw the leaves in his hand and was surprised: “There are brown leaves here?”
Dudian saw that both of them seemed to recognize this item. He took it without saying anything.
Zac and Jason rubbed the leaves onto their bodies and then applied the excess onto Diana’s body. During the process they naturally touched each other. Both of them kneaded each other in tacit understanding.
Diana smiled but didn’t resist. She even groaned when she touched the sensitive part of her chest. It was very tempting.
“Unfortunately, the lower half of her body is gone.”Jason was a bit regretful.Zac smiled but didn’t say anything.
Although they weren’t seduced by beauty but they were men after all.
Dudian glanced at Zac. Previously he tried to stop them but now he seemed to enjoy it. It was like a person who had done something extremely bad. He didn’t feel anything or even feel ashamed.
After smearing the brown leaf juice, the three of them once again shifted their position. After half a month of exploration, they found that as long as they were close to the god of war’s wall, they wouldn’t encounter too strong monsters. If they went deeper.., they would encounter more lord-level monsters. They might even encounter two or three families from the abyss.
Five days passed in the blink of an eye.
The three of them changed their positions many times. They stayed in each place for less than a day. They used all kinds of leaves, water, soil, and the hair of the monsters to change their smell. In addition, Jason told Dudian and zasite a secret to eliminate the smell. He mixed the blood of the monsters with ashes. He also brought a bottle of special ash powder. He mixed the water and mixed it into a paste and smeared it all over his body, it could seal the pores and minimize the spread of the smell.
“Come, tell me, Kiss Daddy.”
“Kiss, Kiss Daddy, Daddy…”Diana giggled intermittently.
Jason who was training her smiled and said: “How do I Kiss?”He handed a blood-stained monster leg to her.
Diana giggled and bit it. She tore off a large piece of flesh and laughed: “Kiss, Kiss Daddy…”
“Good boy.”Jason patted her head to show his appreciation.
Dina’s face was as comfortable as a cat’s, and she enjoyed his touch.
Jason pointed at a poisonous python that had been hunted and killed. “It’s Daddy.”
“Daddy, Daddy… ?”Dina’s reaction was a little slow. She turned her head and saw the dead poisonous python lying on the ground. Her eyes slowly revealed a silly smile from before. She pushed her arm against the ground and quickly rushed over to hug the poisonous python, she opened her mouth and bit off a piece of flesh. Her voice was muffled as she said: “Daddy…”
“Good girl.”Jason smiled in satisfaction as he patted her head.
Daina’s face was full of obedience as she leaned into his arms.
Zac and Dudian were sitting on the stone next to them. They were chewing grass roots. Zac looked at dudian: “Is this method really possible? What if his father has a strong toxin resistance?”
“Then we can only blame our bad luck.”Dudian shook his head. He used sneak attacks to hide the venom in the back of Diana’s teeth. When she bit, the venom would be injected into the body of the target, it was like a poison monster.
“Is your poison really effective?”Zac wasn’t convinced.
“It can directly poison the abyss. It should be considered a relatively poisonous poison. If we can find something more poisonous then we can replace it.”Dudian said. The poison in his body was made from the venom of the Arctic ice dragon, it was a mixture of poison from other monsters. There was also poison from poison arrow frog. This kind of poison had made the ruler who invaded Sylvia lose the ability to fight. Now the effect of the poison was greatly increased, it was not difficult to poison the abyss but it would be greatly reduced if they encountered the abyss which had high resistance to the poison.
However, there was a benefit to this. Usually, people with strong resistance would have defensive magic marks. This meant that their perception and attack were slightly inferior.
They had repeatedly moved positions for so many days but were still not caught up by Dinah’s father. It was clear that his father’s perception was not strong.
“If it was two magic marks, if it was me, I would choose one perception, one attack, or one defense. His father should be like this…”Dudian thought, his eyes flashed as he glanced at Zac.
Three days later.
The three of them were ready to set sail and return to the iron-smelting plain.
After two days of travel, the three of them were getting closer and closer to the iron-smelting plain. That night, the sky was cloudless and the stars were bright. The three of them gathered at the edge of the forest and ate all the low-level monsters they had hunted. After filling their stomachs, they sat on the branches and looked at the Moon.
There was no way to entertain themselves during the long night. Daydreaming and daydreaming became the only way for them to pass the time.
“The Moon is so beautiful. I wonder if we can fly up there.”Jason found a topic to talk about and said in a whimsical manner.
Zahimt suddenly laughed. “How can we fly up there? Just the Thunderbirds on the clouds are enough to kill us.”
“There are no thunderbirds outside the border.”
“But I heard that the higher you fly, the colder it will be. In the end, you will be frozen into an ice sculpture.”
“That’s true. It’s the same as how we live.”Jason sighed as he looked at the dark forest: “We humans are probably the only ones in the world who know how to look up and appreciate the stars.”
Zaite shrugged his shoulders: “Of course. What do these low-level monsters know? I heard that in the last century we humans had spread all over the world. We were the masters of all living things!”
Jason nodded. There was some yearning and regret in his eyes.
Dudian listened to their chitchat. Under the moonlight there was a bit of desire to talk but he held it back, after a while he slowly said: “Maybe it is because you know how to look up and appreciate that you want to conquer and destroy.”
Jason curiously asked: “Conquer? You mean someone wants to conquer this piece of starry sky?”
“Everything you see, you want to keep for yourself unless it’s trash, right?”Dudian asked back.
“That’s true.”Jason nodded.
“Especially the beautiful girls.”Zach laughed.
Jason laughed.
Dudian got up: “I’m going to relieve myself. I’m going to look around to see if there are any monsters from the Abyss.”
“Do you want me to accompany you?”
“No.”
“Don’t go too far. Be careful.”
“Signal if there is danger.”
Both of them instructed.
Dudian jumped down from the treetops and took Aisha out of the forest. They walked to the mountain next to them. First, he took a piss. Then he took Aisha and continued to walk for more than ten miles, he handed Aisha the roasted flesh of the monster. He cut it with the Cleaver and let her eat it one bite at a time.
After she finished eating, he used a clean handkerchief to wipe her lips.
When he was about to return, he suddenly saw a heat source approaching from the limit of his vision.
“Human?”Dudian’s pupils shrank as he saw the outline of the heat source. It was an upright human. Although it was different from the human body but it looked like an oval red shadow. However, he had used the heat source to identify countless humans, he was very experienced.
The hair on his body stood up. The first thing that came to his mind was ‘Dad’!
Did he chase after them?
Dudian calmed down and frowned. He felt that the man’s reaction was a bit strange. It seemed that he wasn’t Daina’s father. If her father was tracking them then why would he walk slowly? He should have hidden in the dark or rushed at full speed.
However, the heat source was walking very slowly. It seemed to be walking normally and stopping at times as if it was trying to figure out the direction.
Dean’s eyes flashed. He thought for a moment and finally took Aisha with him. If it wasn’t Dinah’s father, then who was it? He was very curious. was there someone else in this isolated place? Or was it a local resident?
Ten minutes later, he and Aisha quietly approached the place.
Dean peeked out from a giant rock crack. He was shocked. He opened his eyes wide. This person was actually Dana!
The same style of linen clothing, the same color of light golden hair, and the same face. The only difference was that her body was as good as before, just like when Dean first met Dana!
Dudian’s heart violently twitched. Even though he had seen countless vicious and bloody scenes, at this moment there was a moment of absent-mindedness. He felt that he had seen a ghost!
Wasn’t Daina with Zac and Jason? Wasn’t her waist cut off by him? Wasn’t she tortured by them until she went crazy?
“Who? !”“Daina”who was standing in front suddenly turned back and looked straight at the place where Dudian was hiding.
Dudian’s face was ugly. He didn’t expect that he would make such a low-level mistake after experiencing so many dangerous battles. He wasn’t calm enough, maybe he felt guilty and ashamed about torturing Dana so he had such a big reaction?
He couldn’t explain but he knew that he had to stand out. There was no point in hiding.
When he came out from behind the Boulder, Dudian suddenly found that there was a difference between “Dana”and the previous “Dana”he had met. Their hairstyles were different. The previous “Dana”had a ponytail and looked very innocent and lively, this “Dana”had loose hair that fell on her shoulders like waves. She had a bit of princess-like elegance and her expression was more indifferent.
“Human?”After “Dana”saw Dudian, her eyes flashed with surprise. She immediately noticed Aisha who was next to Dudian.
“I’m passing by. My name is dudian. And you are?”Dudian asked. He took the initiative to show his friendliness but his heart was a bit nervous.
“My name is Dana.”The girl said.
Dudian’s pupils contracted for a moment but quickly returned to normal. There was no change in his expression. He smiled as if it was the first time he had heard of this name: “This is a good name.”
The girl looked at him: “Have you heard of this name?”
“I had a friend named this name when I was young. It seems that this name is not bad.”Dudian smiled.
The girl stared at him. She saw that Dudian’s smile was natural. She slowly withdrew the spirit in her eyes: “Why are you here? Listen to your language. Where did you come from?”She raised her hand and pointed at the god of war wall.
Dudian nodded. There was a trace of embarrassment on his face: “Not long ago there was a war. I was separated from the main force and ended up here. I am afraid that I will be treated as a deserter.”
The girl asked: “Are You Alone?”
Dudian shook his head. He shook his head like a rattle-drum, “There are eight people who got separated with me. We are a squadron. They are resting on the other side. I came out to take a piss and patrol the surroundings. I didn’t expect to meet you. Are you a resident here?” Her eyes lit up as she looked excited.
The girl shook her head: “I am the same as you. I came from the other side of the wall but I have been living here for a long time.”
“Living here for a long time?”Dudian was surprised: “Isn’t there a fire dragon circling here? Didn’t you meet them?”
“We have ways to hide.”The girl shook her head. She didn’t want to talk about it, she looked at dudian: “Are your teammates there? Why Don’t you take me to see them? I have been here since I was a child. I haven’t seen what the people outside are like!”.
Dudian couldn’t help but think of Diana. She had an innocent smile and eyes.
“They are rude. If you don’t mind, please come with me.”Dudian said in a serious tone. He turned his body and made an invitation. He waited for the girl to slowly approach him, step by step, it was as if she was stepping on his heart.
Dudian smiled as the girl walked in front of him. He stepped forward to guide her.
The girl looked around and asked: “Have you seen a girl who looks like me? Her name is Dana and she is my sister.”
Dudian was surprised: “Do you sisters have the same name?”
The girl nodded: “Have You Seen Her?”
Dudian shook his head: “No. If we have seen her then we will invite her to join us.”
“That’s true.”
Dudian curiously asked: “How come you have the same name as your sister? Did she get separated from you?”
“Yes, she went out to play half a month ago and never came back. My father was worried to death. I have been looking for her everywhere during this time. I have been looking for her until now. It is late at night.”The girl sighed, there was a bit of sadness on her eyebrows.
Dudian looked at her appearance. He couldn’t bear to look at her. But he still showed a regretful and sympathetic expression: “She should be lost. Or…” He suddenly waved the splitter in his hand.
Clang! Sparks flew.
The sound of the collision was particularly loud in the night.
Dudian and Dinah pulled away from each other. Both of them were surprised.
Dudian didn’t expect that Dinah who had been listening to him would react and block his attack. The girl also didn’t expect that Dudian’s attack would be so fierce. Although she was prepared but she was almost unable to withstand it. At the moment her weapon was broken and her arm was cut open.
“You were prepared?”Dudian’s face turned gloomy. He hoped that the previous sound would alarm Jason and Zach. But the distance was too far and they wouldn’t be able to hear it.
“Where is my sister?”The girl coldly looked at Dudian.
“How do you know that I have something to do with her?”Dudian asked.
“Although your performance was flawless but there is one thing you may not know. Your backpack has already exposed you!”The girl sneered.
“Backpack?”Dudian was startled. Lightning flashed in his mind: “Do you mean the thing inside?”
“Yes, it is the flesh of the Aragami!”The girl said in a cold voice: “My father detected the reaction of the Aragami’s flesh not long after you came to the plains. But he was in the middle of an experiment and couldn’t get out. So he asked my sister to bring you back. I didn’t expect that she would fall into your hands!”
Dudian was slightly startled. were they exposed as soon as they arrived at the plains? Did Dina already know about them?
How could it be!
He couldn’t accept it. He didn’t want to believe it. But he felt that there was no reason for this “Dina”to deceive him. He gradually calmed down and slowly recalled the situation when he first met Dina. He carefully thought about it and suddenly found many details. There were many flaws and doubts, it was definitely not just the few points that he had observed earlier.
For example, when Dina saw them, she was obviously surprised. Now that he thought about it, it was even more obvious that she was putting on an act.
In addition, Dina showed no fear at all. Anyone who stayed in this place where the monsters resided would know how to be careful. However, Dina directly approached them. There was no stealth, no disguise.., even when she saw them, she did not show any obvious fear. If it were an ordinary person, meeting a few of their own kind with unclear abilities would definitely not be just a pleasant surprise.
Because of Dina’s naivety and vivacity, they mistakenly thought that she was too naive and did not know that humans were evil. That was why they believed them so easily. However, the other party’s purpose was actually to bring them back to her father.
As for the goal, it was very likely to be the Aragami’s flesh and blood in his bag.
They thought that others were naive, but perhaps they were just as naive in Dinah’s eyes.
However, there was something that he could not figure out. He asked, “Why did your father not let the two of you come over together? With your strength, you should be able to capture us directly, right?”
The young girl snorted coldly and said, “There’s no harm in telling you. My sister and I have very different habits in life. She only comes out during the day and cowers at home at night. Meanwhile, I only come out at night. I don’t even go out during the day! Moreover, my father has already found out that the three of you are inferior abyss. My Sister’s strength is enough to subdue the three of you easily!”
Dudian’s face slightly changed. The two of them alternated day and night? What was the reason? He didn’t believe that it was just their living habits. It was very likely that it was because of their magic marks or other reasons. Some monsters liked to hunt at night while others liked to hunt during the day.
Besides, her words revealed a lot of information. First of all, her father could actually sense that they were from the lower abyss! After all, they had hidden the heat source, and how far away was his father? At least outside of their perception range! Not only could he sense them from such a far distance, but he could also know their specific strength. This was simply unbelievable!
But if his father’s perception was outstanding, then why didn’t he catch up with them? Could it be that he couldn’t escape? He felt that it was impossible. After all, it had been almost a month.
Could it be that her father had used some instruments to detect their strength?
Dudian noticed that she had said “Detect the reaction of the flesh of the Aragami”. Although “Detect”and “Perception”sometimes meant the same thing, but in Dudian’s eyes, they were two different things.
In his opinion, perception only represented the body’s ability. Detection included not only the instrument but also the body’s detection.
If it was an instrument, then it would explain why her father didn’t track her.
However, this also extended to another information. Her father was in possession of a very sophisticated instrument. It was very high-tech!
As he was thinking about the stakes, he was suddenly shocked, and his face turned a little ugly. He glanced in the direction he came from, and it was Jason and Zaite, as well as… the “Crazy and stupid”Dinah.
During the previous repeated interrogation, Jason naturally questioned her about whether she had a motive or if it was a coincidence, but the answer Dinah gave was “No”! From the beginning to the end, her answer had not changed, so much so that the people they interrogated believed that she had completely confessed.
However, if it was an ordinary captive, the answers would always be a little different. The things that they wanted to hide at the beginning would gradually loosen up after they forced her to confess.
But Dinah had not changed at all. This was a very big doubt, but for some reason, they mistakenly thought that she was too innocent and did not lie from the beginning. She was a naive and kind girl.
It seemed that her confession couldn’t be taken seriously.
Moreover, she shouldn’t be crazy. If a person was stupid, how could he make the same answer and reaction as before?
The more Dudian thought about it, the more frightened he became. He suddenly felt that he had made a big mistake. The reason for this big mistake was that he had underestimated Dinah.
Not only him but also Zac and Jason were deceived by Dinah.
They had a preconceived idea that Dinah might be an innocent girl. That was why they thought that the torture would make her crazy. But now it seemed that Dinah deliberately approached them to bring them back to her father. The reason why she didn’t take a strong direct attack was very simple. If he was in her position, he would have chosen to use a more gentle method to lure them over, this way, it was more labor-saving.
If they had rejected Dina back then, they might have faced her lightning attack.
In fact, if he had not taken the initiative to attack back then, perhaps Dina would have attacked first!
Just like at this moment.
When he had waved his saber just now, the young girl had already been on guard, so she was able to parry in time. Moreover, she had already seen through his identity. He suspected that she might have taken into account the fact that he had defeated her sister, so she did not attack him directly from the beginning. Instead, she had the same intention as him, to sneak attack him at close range!
Otherwise, why would she act defenseless when she came over?
Didn’t her behavior make him relax his vigilance?
There were countless cases of failure or death because of contempt. Dudian knew that he shouldn’t underestimate anyone. A lion needed to use all his strength to kill a rabbit. However, he still made this mistake. Moreover, it was fatal.
It was inevitable for anyone to make a mistake. This was something that even the deepest philosophy couldn’t change.
Fortunately, he met the girl. Otherwise, they would have taken Daina who was pretending to be stupid to attack her father!
He was glad and even grateful to the girl in front of him.
“Your sister’s perceptive ability should be pretty good right?”Dudian suddenly asked.
The girl indifferently said: “It seems that you have experienced it?”
Dudian slightly nodded and sighed in his heart. It was too dangerous! At this moment he had the answer to the last doubt in his heart. They had tested whether Dinah was crazy or not. Maybe she had heard about it. They pretended to leave but hid in the dark to observe. Maybe they were also in her perception.
From the beginning to the end, Dinah had been foolishly smiling at them. Maybe the silly smile on her face was a mockery to them.
