While the outside world was engulfed in chaotic war.
Saltwater Swamp.
This filthy place, covered in highly corrosive, toxic saltwater, displayed the same tranquil and harmonious natural scenery as ever.
All kinds of slaughter and hunting remained utterly unaffected by the outside world, proceeding as orderly as ever. It looked rather livable, brimming with infectious stability.
One could imagine it.
After living here long enough, even humans could turn into oviparous animals, as though a miracle of evolution had occurred.
And as a local resident.
Dimogegen, this Two-headed Baboon, had sunk into despair for a long time beneath the torment of psychological shadows and physical pain.
Yet, bolstered by the good mood brought by the pleasant scenery, he had gradually emerged from the aftereffects of his past terrible experiences.
Other than instinctively recalling Orsaga whenever he saw the moon, he had basically made a complete recovery in both body and mind!
Moreover.
Following the basic principle of "only by enduring the bitterest hardships can one rise above all others," his strength had become far greater than before he suffered that torment!
Like a metal weapon that had become tougher after being hammered time and again!
At present, he had once only been able to eke out a living on the outskirts of the Benthic Demon Fish territory, never daring to show his face.
But now, more or less, he possessed the strength to contend against them!
Even if they truly fought, he would probably still lose.
But the losses his opponents would suffer would certainly not be small!
Therefore.
Under normal circumstances, those Benthic Demon Fish mostly did not provoke him either.
Between the two sides.
A barely maintained balance existed!
Neither interfered with the other!
Deep within a mud pit.
"...%%%#¥%#@"
As a lengthy, tongue-twisting incantation was chanted.
