Shrouded Seascape-Chapter 1115. The Diois Tribe

When the dream turned into reality, the dreamer disappeared. It seemed like Edikth's aura had taken her away, but no one could say for sure. It was unknown whether she was still alive or dead.

However, Anna couldn't care less about the fate of the mysterious dreamer. She cared more about the wriggling monster before her, as it was none other than a Dioite.

Anna was staring at her former body and former race. She was truly powerful and beautiful back then. Anna had been feeling frustrated about her weak human body, but she would no longer feel that way from now on.

She could finally abandon her fragile human body.

In stark contrast, everyone else cast wary gazes at the monster. Their hands involuntarily gripped their weapons, including Jackal and the loyal Fhtagnists.

Although they believed in the so-called Fhtagn, they weren't exactly a fan of slimy, wriggling monsters. After all, they were still human beings, and no human being could possibly like such a monster.

"Is that... your original body?" Roy asked, swallowing hard.

"Yes, what do you think? Isn't it beautiful?" Anna replied.

As soon as those words came out of Anna's mouth, everyone's wary gazes instantly shifted to her. Even Gao Zhiming was staring at her the same way as the others.

Only they were aware of their own thoughts, but the fear on their faces made it obvious that their thoughts couldn't be anything good.

However, Anna was too lazy to care about their thoughts.

She was eager to use her ability as a Dioite for something.

In the bizarre Subterranean Sea, a Dioite capable of altering memories and cognition at any time wasn't exactly a terrifying existence. There were many beings far more terrifying than a Dioite.

On the surface world, however, it was a different story. The Anomalies on the surface world were too weak and fragile, and there were also too many humans for Anna to dominate.

Anna was confident that she could give the IMF a hard time once she had covered her original body.

More importantly, she could easily alter Gao Zhiming's memories by then. In other words, if Anna became a Dioite once again, she could easily ensure Gao Zhiming's fall into the Subterranean Sea.

"Knife, give me a knife," Anna remarked.

The clown walked over and gave her a small knife.

Anna started cutting her hair immediately afterward.

As a former member of the Diois Tribe, Anna was extremely familiar with a Dioite, and she knew that it was incredibly difficult to transfer a human's consciousness and memories to somewhere else.

However, Anna had thought one step ahead, ensuring that the imagined Dioite's sea of consciousness was empty. In other words, Anna just needed to dig out her brain and place it into the empty space.

"Watch it closely, everyone. Don't look away, even for a moment. If it shows any signs of transforming into a human body, shoot its tentacles immediately," Anna said to the Fhtagnists while giving herself a haircut.

The Dioite that she had worked so hard to obtain could become a human being and run away, but Anna wasn't going to let that happen.

Fortunately, it seemed that her worries were unnecessary, as the Dioite had never moved since it was imagined.

"Li Lu, come and help me. I can't shave the back of my hair," Anna said, handing over the knife to Li Lu and lowering her head.

With Li Lu's help, Anna's thick hair was severed into large chunks. At this moment, it was extremely quiet. There weren't any other noises except for the sound of Anna's hair being cut.

Just as a lock of Anna's long hair was about to be cut, a hand covered in scars snatched away the knife in Li Lu's hand. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

"Anna, are you sure you want to do this? You should think about it again." An exhausted voice echoed beside Anna. The voice sounded hoarse and wasn't pleasant to the ears at all.

However, Anna had long grown accustomed to it. It was her man's voice, after all.

She turned her head slightly, glaring impatiently at Charles standing beside her.

"Are you kidding me? Have you forgotten what the IMF has done to us? This is a great opportunity to become even stronger and fight back against them, yet you're telling me to think about it again?

"I'm telling you this just in case, but there is no room for a negotiation here. You better not force my hand! I still haven't talked to you about my daughter! You absolutely can't be relied on for anything!

"My fate is in my own hands, and I'm the one who's going to decide it!"

Charles was about to say something else when a panicked voice interrupted their conversation. "High Priestess! That octopus monster has disappeared!"

"What?!"

Everyone looked to the right and found that the motionless monster had somehow disappeared.

Charles subconsciously touched the holster at his waist. "Don't panic, we're in a remote place, so it couldn't have run away.

"It must be among us right now."

Charles swept his gaze across everyone's face.

Anna looked around, showing no panic on her face. Instead, a cold smile tugged at her lips. "How interesting. That thing actually dares to play hide-and-seek with us. Could it be that it hasn't discovered my original identity through my memories?

"This is really absurd; it's like a novice showing off before an expert."

"Let me do it for you," Charles replied, "You should rest and think carefully about whether you really want to become a Dioite again or not."

Upon learning the special abilities of the vanished monster, the people nearby became uneasy as they exchanged glances with their companions.

Charles frowned and browsed his memories. In no time, he recalled the unique characteristics of a Dioite and concluded a few things. Firstly, the Dioite would surely target a core member of Anna's group rather than just an ordinary Fhtagnist.

A Dioite's primary source of nutrients and energy was human. It had to become a core member of Anna's group, or it would struggle to find any food. Secondly, it could temporarily alter memories, but it couldn't alter any photos.

With that in mind, Charles confiscated everyone's cellphones, and he checked their galleries one by one. Unfortunately, Charles' method wasn't effective. Among the people present, no one was idle enough to take photos for no reason at all.

Charles remembered the footprints that they had made all over the island, and he began looking for them. Sadly, the earlier chaos had destroyed the trail, which meant that there were no footprints to examine.

It was a stalemate, but the issue wasn't that big of a deal.

After all, there was only one Dioite, and they were aware of its special abilities.

It would be a bit difficult to find it. After all, they weren't out at sea, and no one would randomly write something similar to a navigation log like back then.

"Why overthink it? Have you forgotten how you killed me back then? A Dioite's blood takes on a different color compared to human blood. Everyone just needs to cut themselves, and we can check them one by one."

Anna stepped forward to take command over everyone when strange noises echoed from the house next door. Charles waved his hand lightly, and the others immediately walked over with a little girl in tow.
