Infinitely Criticizing the Villain for Being Like My Ex-Boyfriend

"A beautiful pink dolphin brought a human child who was less than one year old to our mermaid group. It begged us to raise the child and said that he would lead our tribe to become the most powerful existence in this sea in the future." Kist raised his hand and made a small gesture. Until now, he can still recall the young Deep Blue's appearance.

He has a delicate and cute appearance, but no expression. He looks like a little snowman sculptured out of ice. Even when he was sent to a group of strange mermaids, he looked fearless and even looked at the mermaids with his cold and crystal eyes.

"He is observing all the mermaids. This surprises me. Human children will not be intelligent before the age of three, but its eyes are clearly extremely smart. It is a congenitally wise person." Kister's mood was very complicated. "We need to become stronger, but we can't pin our hopes on a strange human child--"

But his wife, Kenshahua, the witch chief of the mermaid tribe, agreed to the dolphin's request.

The reason why it agreed was simple: it was just raising a child who didn't need much food, and even if he died because he couldn't stand the environment at sea, it would have nothing to do with the mermaids. But if he could really make the mermaids stronger as the dolphin said, then why not do it?

Kist has always had a love-hate relationship with his wife. He is an extremely rational and cold egoist. Compared to Kist, he is more suitable to be the leader of the tribe.

"Our mermaid king died tragically in a fight with a group of killer whales. Kenshahua and I were the fish with the most say at the time - so we took in Deep Blue."

"Excuse me--" Zhang Chunliang asked, "Pink dolphin? What are its characteristics?"

"It's very beautiful and dreamy. Oh, by the way, it communicates with us in a mixed language of humans and mermaids." Kist answered honestly.

Zhang Chunliang followed its words and found a matching item in the system store, the "Dolphin Elf", which allows players to swim freely in the sea like fish for thirty days, but it is very expensive. The points required can even buy a low-level life-saving item, so no one is willing to buy it.

"Goddess." He nodded, "It turned out to be her."

Kister's expression was blank for a moment, he shook his head and continued, "My wife has the ability to curse. She can use bubbles as a medium to make a promise with someone. If the other party fails to fulfill the promise, she can use the bubbles to kill the person who made the promise. He made a promise with the dolphin that as long as Deep Blue can lead the mermaids to become stronger, we will always be loyal to him and respect him as king."

So that's how it was. This was the purpose of the portrait. The goddess had predicted Xiao Ai's existence, and in order to allow Shen Lan to gain a foothold in this mermaid tribe, she gave him the portrait and asked him to expand his mermaid tribe through the Holy Island of Elant.

"But you broke your promise," Zhang Chunliang said, "You killed it."

Kister's breathing became rapid. It was rare for it to be so embarrassed and painful. "Because it has changed. It has become moody and often kills our innocent people. It is so terrifying and violent - just like before it ate the heart..."

"Heart?" Zhang Chunliang grasped this key word, "What do you mean before eating the heart?"

"Deep Blue has natural wisdom, but he is also born without emotions and a heart. When the dolphin entrusted him to us, it gave us a heart and said that Deep Blue should eat it when he is ten years old." Kister still feels very sad when he recalls the experience of those ten years. "We raised him with all our heart, but he was always so cold and heartless. He was indifferent even when a mermaid was dragged away and eaten by a squid in front of him."

"Ten years old... before he can eat it?" Zhang Chunliang thought, "It seems that the heart does not belong to him. It does not match his body, so he must wait until his chest cavity grows large enough to accommodate the heart before he can eat it... Whose heart is that?"

"I don't know. Anyway, after he ate the heart, he turned into a normal child. Although he still looked a little cold and taciturn, he would respond to our love for him and help other mermaids... At the same time, his human legs gradually disappeared, and he turned into a real mermaid."

"So that's how it is." Zhang Chunliang suddenly said, "...I understand."

Kister didn't respond to him. His eyes were sad and filled with deep sorrow.

"I guessed it." Zhang Chunliang smiled and looked at the tall but hunched mermaid opposite him, and said word by word, "You should have guessed why Shenlan's temperament changed drastically and killed those people - because its heart was stolen, and it was looking for the thief who stole its heart."

Kister's whole body began to tremble uncontrollably, and he made a strange sound, like an unpleasant whimper.

"Is it because Kenshahua sensed that the dolphin that made the agreement was dead? That's why you can tear up the agreement without any scruples." Zhang Chunliang asked, "This is shameless. It's your king, and you are insulting it."

"I'm sorry - but please believe me, we love it more than anyone else." Kister's hoarse sobs weakened, but he did not defend his behavior.

It is a bad-tempered guy. Tonight, it showed its most humble side and revealed all its shameful past.

Just because his wife Kenshahua was about to die.

Countless grass roots grew out of its broken head. They drilled out from its eye sockets, cochlea, nostrils, and mouth, turning it into an ornamental potted grass ball.

But it was still alive, groaning in despair.

"Please save it, it can't die - at least not now." Kist said, "If your anger cannot be calmed down, we are willing to commit suicide after finding the next mermaid king."

"Then, do you want to make a promise with me too?" Zhang Chunliang smiled, his tone calm but particularly stinging.

Kister stopped talking. His eyes were very sad, and there was an impenetrable despair in the thick night.

"I'm sorry." It had no choice but to say this.

"Go back." Zhang Chunliang paused for a moment and waved to it. "Your wife is waiting for you. You may need to treat its wound."

It took Kister a while to realize what he meant. He immediately bent his tall body and bowed deeply to Zhang Chunliang.

"You are the most important person to Holy Island that I have ever met." Kist said sincerely, "Thank you for your generosity. Without you, I don't know how to calm the anger of Holy Island-"

It rushed into the water quickly and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Zhang Chunliang was scooped into the tree house by a thick vine. Xiao Ai was making the bed for him in the house. It spread a layer of fluffy straw cotton on the mattress and patted it twice, making it look extremely soft.

"Thank you, Xiao Ai." Zhang Chunliang sat on the wooden bed and said lazily.

"No, Liangliang." Xiao Ai leaned over and kissed his cheek sweetly.

"I originally thought that it would not come to see me until at least tomorrow. It seems that it values ​​its wife so much that it can't even wait for this little time." Zhang Chunliang raised the corners of his mouth and looked through the window of the tree house toward the river. The bodies of the mermaids had disappeared.

There was no such thing as Xiao Ai punishing Ken Shahua out of anger. If it knew that Ken Shahua would attack Zhang Chunliang, it would have done it on the boat long ago.

Zhang Chunliang doesn't want Kenshahua to die because it is an important NPC related to the treasure.

However, the traps it sets for players should not be easily forgiven.

So Zhang Chunliang took advantage of its actions and punished Kenshahua under the pretext of Xiao Ai's anger, and forced the mermaid couple to tell him some stories about Shenlan.

He had no doubt that Kist and others knew about his relationship with Xiao Ai. How could an old monster as smart as Kenshahua not realize that the existence that once possessed the skeleton of the Mermaid King was the Holy Island?

"Want to see... the grass ball? Liangliang? I'll get it for you...~" Xiao Ai asked excitedly.

Before leaving the Abyss Forest, Zhang Chunliang told Xiao Ai that he wanted to see the leader of Kenshahua turn into a living ball of grass.

Although Xiao Ai didn't understand Zhang Chunliang's strange taste, she still went to fulfill his wish obediently - Kister didn't tell Zhang Chunliang that the Kenshahua not only grew branches, but also had bright and beautiful flowers on each branch.

Now, it is ready to show its little handicraft to Zhang Chunliang.

"No need, baby." Zhang Chunliang rubbed his straw pillow, "We should rest now."

"What about the grass carp?" Xiao Ai suggested, "I'll pick a good one."

It turned its attention to the mermaid.

"It's not as good as your set of water grass." Zhang Chunliang pulled it into his arms, and his sleeves were instantly soaked with water vapor. "Promise me, baby, next time you change it to land grass. Although it looks good... it's too wet."

……

"Then it's decided." Wang Shaofan clapped his hands, "We need to speed up the progress. Next, I will lead everyone to the Tomb of the Hands, and the more dangerous Tomb of the Upper Body will be left to the Lord."

His vine arms were wrapped in a thick layer of gauze. He winked at Zhang Chunliang slyly and led the team away in the direction of the Screaming Valley.

"I always feel that you are planning something that will make me unhappy." The fox stood behind Zhang Chunliang, with a look of indifference in his eyes.

Ever since Zhang Chunliang exposed his plan, he would no longer smile at him deliberately.

"How could I make you unhappy?" Zhang Chunliang hooked his finger at him with a sincere look in his eyes, "I am taking you there just to make you happy."

The fox tilted his head slightly and suddenly asked, "Did you find my treasure?"

Zhang Chunliang shrugged and did not answer his question directly. Instead, he asked, "Did you find your heart later?"

"It is true." The fox suddenly let out a sneer. "Game House is really a guy with no creativity. This time, is he going to take my heart again?"

"So, where is your heart?" Zhang Chunliang asked, "Let me guess, your heart was stolen by the players, right? In order to get your heart back, you possessed a certain player and left this instance. Oh, and by the way, you also deceived that naive and gullible little fool Alante, using the excuse that you were going outside to find me, and coaxed him to help you protect the mermaids..."

"Trust me, Xiaoliang." Fox seemed to be in a good mood. He walked forward slowly and helped Zhang Chunliang carry his backpack. "If the answer to this dungeon is really my heart, then you are doomed to fail."

Zhang Chunliang took two steps forward, walking side by side with him, and asked curiously, "Why are you so sure? Is it because your heart has not been found? Oh, I heard that you have been going through some difficult dungeons. Are you looking for your heart?"

"You're annoying." The fox said, "I should have killed you when I first saw you."

"But you didn't kill me, and brought me to this dungeon. So you are a good mermaid who keeps your promise." Zhang Chunliang smiled, "You really helped Xiao Ai find me."

Fox stopped walking, glared at Zhang Chunliang coldly, and after a while, he said, "You talk too much. Also, who said that I let you enter this instance just to send you to Shen Xingyi?"

Zhang Chunliang touched his nose and felt a little embarrassed.

"Now shut up, Xiaoliang." The fox's tone was strangely gentle again. "Don't mess with me before I change my mind."

Zhang Chunliang raised his hands to show surrender.

The fox raised his lower lip without a smile and strode forward.

He looked at the fox's back and suddenly added fearlessly, "This time the game house is not so cliché. It is playing a very new, cool and innovative game."

"Really? Then I'm looking forward to it." said the fox.

"I'm looking forward to it too." Zhang Chunliang had an inexplicable smile on his face.

The tomb of the human body is in a cave deep in the mountains. The stalactites and stalagmites in the cave look extremely hideous, like countless creatures with different forms of death.

Zhang Chunliang believed that if it was not him and the fox who came in, but anyone other than them, the strange rocks in the cave would come alive and find ways to kill the outsiders.

Just imagine, when the treasure thieves finally avoided the attack of the strange rocks in the cave and got the treasure of the mermaid king, they found out that it was just a terrible lie - how desperate it would be.

"What are you daydreaming about?" The fox's face was faintly visible in the faint fluorescence of the ore. It was unknown how long it had been looking at Zhang Chunliang.

The two walked deep into the cave, and the air was filled with a strong fishy smell. Before they knew it, they had arrived at the location of the grave.

"It's a bit strange." Zhang Chunliang frowned slightly and said, "The ground here is soft and slippery... and a little elastic."

"That's because you stepped on my father's body." The fox asked politely, "Can you move your foot away now?"

Zhang Chunliang raised his foot in horror, turned on the flashlight in his hand and shone it under his feet, and found that he was indeed standing on a huge mermaid corpse.

The scales on the corpse's tail were falling off and it was trembling slightly, but there was nothing on its neck. It was the long-lost headless fish corpse.

"So you put it here..." Zhang Chunliang murmured. He had always thought that the fox would bury his father, or would find it troublesome and throw it directly into the sea...

"It wanted to come here on its own initiative." The fox said calmly, "It was too noisy. The ghost wouldn't leave."

Zhang Chunliang wanted to make fun of him. How could he hear the sound of a headless fish? Then he thought that as the king of mermaids, Fox could probably sense the emotions of marine creatures. Although his father was dead, he still had some conscious instinctive emotions.

He shone the flashlight on the headless fish corpse, which was holding a blank painting in its hands.

"Ah, when did it dig up my grave?" asked the fox in surprise.

Zhang Chunliang: “…”

He didn't know how to evaluate this picture for a moment.

The headless father dug up his son's grave and took out a painting of his wife's human skin.

What a tragedy.
