The Dragon That Devours the World

"Huh? Are you Wendy?"

The girl with great-looking eyes when she smiled, folded her hands, leaned down, and looked curiously at Wendy who was standing next to Roberts.

Wendy, who was only 12 years old at the moment, raised her head and looked at the beautiful girl in front of her.

In her eyes, the girl was like a pulsating flame, not at all like the taciturn brother Roberts beside her, and she didn't look like someone who could come together. She was not afraid of life, just tilted her head and said hesitantly.

"...Sister Betty?"

Hearing that, the girl couldn't help laughing, her eyes were very beautiful, and she intimately pinched Wendy's cheek with a bit of baby fat.

"Good devil."

"Rice...fans..."

The little Lolita, who was tragically ravaged by the evil taste of the black-bellied woman, couldn't help but struggled violently, and screamed like a small animal, trying to ask the "brother" beside her for help, but her brother, who had always cared for her, fell for the first time Head, pretending to hear nothing.

Feeling betrayed by her comrades, Lori couldn’t help but mourn from her heart. She didn’t expect that her cold and handsome "brother" would easily become a prisoner of a black-bellied woman with breasts, but a cricket C cup. One day, she will She will grow to be bigger than her...

"What's wrong, little animal~"

Along with the pain on the cheek, the narrow laughter sounded in his ears.

Even though she was full of "ambitions" in her heart, she still had to face the reality of being teased by a black-bellied woman. How tragic it was that she had to be forced to make a shameful begging for mercy.

"Hey..."

Scenes of memories from the past began to emerge.

Sudden encounters, dinners in cafes, chats while strolling, the ambiguity on the bridge under the moon, the white skirt fluttering when I look back, the first time my heart is revealed...

The girl who likes to cover her mouth and smiles with moon-like eyes; the girl who is bold and willful and dared to face the werewolves alone; the girl who leaned on her shoulder gently and whispered; that sometimes looks lonely and incomprehensible The girl in the world... and the girl who lay quietly in her arms with blood on her white dress.

In the memory, she desperately called her name, but she leaned in her arms and gradually lost consciousness...

The hand that held him slipped weakly, only the smile on his face was very happy.

...

"Betty! Betty! Betty..."

"Snapped!"

Accompanied by a loud slap in the face, Roberts's face felt a pain, he opened his eyes blankly, and suddenly a scaly face appeared in front of him, and the erect snake eyes looked at him coldly.

"you're awake."

The pupils contracted slightly unconsciously, and the originally drowsy brain was awakened as if being splashed by cold water. The body instinctively rolled to the side, and only reacted after being far away from the "person" in front of him. It was Uberto.

In Roberts's view, his "snakeization" has become more and more serious. Originally, the scales only covered his sideburns and forehead. Now there are strange scales on the tip of the nose, and the nose shrinks significantly. Narrowing, brow bones and lips are undergoing varying degrees of abnormal changes.

He is absolutely unable to be associated with the word "human".

And then, he realized that he was in an abnormal place, because the surrounding area was empty plains, and the light would gradually become dimmed a little further away, and he could only wait hundreds of meters away. Seeing the deep darkness is as if in the middle of the plain of night.

But where does the light I can see come from?

He couldn't help but looked up, but the same scene was the same. A little bit farther away, only pitch black could be seen, only the abnormal light sprinkled from the top of his head. These lights were dim, not like moonlight or sunlight at all. .

There is no sun, no moon and stars, as if it is not anywhere on the earth.

"Where is this place?"

He was obviously full of confusion, but Roberts still asked calmly. His experience tells himself that irritability and anxiety can't solve any problems, only calm judgment is the only way out.

Uberto's expression looked a little weird, but he still said the truth.

"……seabed."

"seabed?"

This unexpected answer surprised Roberts.

What kind of world is under the sea? It is a completely dull dark world, as well as sea water and high pressure. Except for extremely rare creatures that may survive, no surface creatures can survive.

And the most important thing is, since it is the seabed, why is there no water?

"Are you kidding me?"

"No, according to my equipment and satellite signals... this is located in the deep ocean of the Atlantic Ocean. After I used the magical teleportation to leave us, it was randomly teleported here, but the exact location was unknown to me due to unknown factors."

Uberto said in a weird voice. With the abnormal changes in his body, his voice became very strange, not like a human voice, with a strange slurred and vague feeling.

Then he raised his head and looked up, looking at the deep darkness above his head, and said calmly.

"In my signal scanning, there is an unknown diaphragm-like thing about a kilometer above, and then there is water, but water cannot enter this diaphragm. In other words, you can understand that there is a big cover. In this seabed, sea water is blocked from entering, and we are within the protection range of this big cover."

Roberts was dumbfounded by Uberto's words.

Is there a big cover deep in the ocean floor of the Atlantic Ocean? This statement would surprise the world, but after a little sorting of his thoughts, Roberts asked rhetorically.

"Then this big cover shouldn't be formed naturally, do you know what's going on with this thing?"

"I don't know, but I have some guesses... In ancient legends, there is a big West continent, and there is an Atlantis civilization on the West continent, but one day the Atlantis civilization sinks into the sea. This story It’s hard to trace its origin, but we have found the remains of the Atlantis civilization, and even the Atlanteans resurrected on the moon. In that case, why can’t we believe that there is such a sinking in the sea? The Atlantis civilization?"

With that, Uberto thought for a moment, then murmured.

"Maybe, what does this protective cover have to do with Atlantis civilization?"

"How are we going out?"

Uberto shook his head.

"I don't know, but I found some metal fragments with obvious artificial traces. If it is related to the Atlantis civilization, there should be some relics and the possibility of going out... From the oxygen content here. , There may be some lives alive. I don’t think that with this protective cover, the entire ecology can be maintained...someone should be maintaining it.

Uberto has mastered many secrets in this world. He seems to be thinking about the relationship between this underwater protective cover that has never been discovered by humans and the civilization of Atlantis. However, Roberts does not intend to consider these. He is also not interested in such ancient secrets.

"How long did I sleep."

"Soon, judging from the changes in your biological clock, about two hours and forty minutes, I also just woke up."

Without asking anything, Roberts just calmly checked his body, his limbs were flexible, his body had no bleeding, and he felt no different. It seemed that he was not injured, as he asked.

"Where is Joan?"

"Lying behind you, not awake yet."

Roberts turned his head to look, and Joan was lying quietly on the mud floor. There was no sign of waking up. Roberts stepped forward to feel her pulse, then looked at her eyes and confirmed that she was just asleep. It's a bit similar to sleeping pills, and it won't wake up in a short time.

He glanced at Uberto again.

At the end, Uberto's choice surprised him. He thought that Uberto would desperately regain the world key, and he was also ready to rescue his daughter by himself, but he did not expect that Uberto would rather give up the world key to rescue Joan. It seems that In his mind, Joan's importance is a bit bigger than the world key.

Roberts is not stupid. He has been a mercenary and demon hunter for nearly forty years and has been involved in many important events.

During the Cold War, the Star Wars plan, the arms race, and even the disintegration of the Soviet Union, he was involved in many events. Whether directly or indirectly, he was more or less related to these events that affected the world, even if I am not keen on political conspiracy, but I should understand a little bit.

If it was the first time that took Joan to risk such a big risk, it was because he did not believe that there is a safe place on the earth that could escape the pursuit of several forces, so he could only bring Joan with him. Uberto had to agree. It is worth considering that he would rather give up the world key and save Joan.

Why do you want to do this?

Is there any reason why Joan is more important than the world key in the heart of this cold-blooded genius?

"What is your purpose?"

Looking at the inhuman Uberto in front of him, Roberts questioned again with alert in his eyes.

If it was something else, he could still tolerate it, but if his daughter was involved in this matter, he would never tolerate it.

Uberto was silent for a moment, then he opened his mouth.

"Roberts, think about it, have I harmed you and Joan..."

"You pushed Wendy down, you killed her."

Just as Uberto tried to refute, his frosty voice abruptly interrupted him.

Looking at Roberts’s chilling gaze, Uberto understood that Wendy’s death had already put the demon hunter on the verge of an outbreak. If he couldn’t give him a reasonable explanation now, he would never cooperate with himself again. He is no longer trusted by Roberts.

After a long time, he spoke.

...

"...You actually..."

"...We have to...snakes..."

"...Do you remember... a headache..."

A vague quarrel sounded near his ears, and the distraught Joan opened his eyes, and the quarrel near his ears disappeared. Then a pair of gentle big hands supported his head and let himself lean in his arms.

"you're awake."

The voice that should have been rough was whispering softly at this moment, as if it were dealing with a fragile treasure.

Looking at the father beside her, the girl's body relaxed, leaning against Roberts's arms, rubbing her forehead with her slender fingers, and muttering as if she was half-dreaming and half-awake.

"Dad~www.readwn.com~Where are we?"

"I don't know, but don't worry about it for the time being, we are safe."

The girl looked not far away. Uberto was looking down and busy with something. It seemed to be checking what equipment was available. Except for this weird space, everything looked normal, but there seemed to be some changes.

In front of the girl, the relationship between Dad and Uberto is still not good, but it doesn't seem to be as hostile as before, and part of their trust has been restored again.

In this unknown protective cover, with the help of a faint dim light, the three of them marched aimlessly forward.

Roberts walked forward in silence. Uberto adjusted the equipment on his body from time to time, looking for a possible way out. Only Joan looked depressed, because she felt that the three of them were in **** and couldn’t find it. Animals, there are no plants, she even feels that the three of them will just die here.

"We will all die here."

Finally, she stopped and couldn't help but talk in frustration.
