This is a cruel world.
This was something that Dina has always known.
When Dina spread out the demonic magician's method, one of her goals was naturally to let as many people learn it so that she could reap the benefit of their hard work after their death.
How they die was not important.
The most important thing is that even in their death, they could still help and made contribution for her, which was something that Dina loved very much.
For this reason alone, she didn't hesitate to share the demonic magician's method.
This method might look terrifying and scary.
But as a demonic magician herself, Dina didn't really feel that way. Because she knew very well that the talent restriction that blocked many people's path didn't exist in this path. It allowed many people to walk on the path that they could never walk on normally.
Even if they said that this path has no future, so what?
Being able to shine brightly even if it was only a short period of time would be more than enough for them.
Ordinary human's life was very short.
And Dina hoped that during this short period of time, she could still shine brilliantly and have a chance to pursue the goal that not many people could do.
The peak.
How many people wanted to reach the peak and how many people could possibly reach it in the end?
The first one was numerous but the second one could be counted in one hand.
Because the path to the peak is a very difficult and arduous path that not many people could possibly tread on.
She was not an exception.
Still, she wanted to give it a try.
And the appearance of these rank 7 magic beasts only granted her more resources as their blood essence was what she needed more to advance. With her collecting their blood essence and advancing her ranks through this event, Dina was confident that she could reach rank 7 very soon.
Being at rank 6 peak, Dina knew that she had to quickly finish the advancement ceremony to reach rank 7.
Tsk, she already felt somewhat impatient.
But…
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The soldiers were fighting hard and Dina raised her head. She couldn't protect the entirety of City J Base from the onslaught of the magic beasts and countless people died during this period of time. It was simply impossible for her to stop them completely.
With the death of these people, Dina could feel the mana that was welling up within her heart and she knew very well that she had reached the peak of rank 6. But she still has to use her mana to deal with these rank 7 magic beasts in front of her.
How annoying.
Dina's eyes flashed with ruthlessness as she chanted, "I am the lord of the dark. May the darkness come and envelop the entire world. Block every ray of light, descend onto the world and cover every surface in the darkness. Darkness is the greatest power in the entire world. Let the darkness come, Dark World!"
Swoosh!
Just like before, countless magic beasts were stopped before they could reach City J Base and Dina looked at the scene in front of her calmly.
Dina knew very well that there were many people who were fighting for the sake of their lives and right now, the citizen in City J Base has been evacuated. They were staying in the safe bunker to wait for the magic beasts' tide to pass.
Since everyone had experience, they were more orderly this time.
After all, no one could be sure that the people who guarded the base could defend themselves perfectly.
Not even the returnees could give such promise.
"Damn it! There are too many magic beasts!"
So many magic beasts pouring out, seemingly cutting of their entire hope with the sea of magic beasts coming over to them.
Dina looked at the distance and knew that there were still some rank 7 magic beasts mixed in. If only the magic beasts that came were weak, then she would have been able to deal with them easily.
But now… Dina could feel that there was an imbalance of her mana and her mental state.
"I'm getting stronger too quickly…"
Dina frowned.
To be honest, it would have been best for her to initiate her advancement ceremony at this point of time.
Because the more people died, the more feedback that would be given to her. But advancing at such rapid speed would affect her mental state due to the memory that was attached from these people's mana.
Not to mention, many people have different elements and it was not that easy for Dina to consume everything and made it hers.
Right now, she already felt headache and it was getting worse.
"Miss Dina," the soldier nearby called out in worry.
Even though Dina's reputation was not very good, but at the very least, she was still willing to help Continent Z. When those magic beasts came to attack City J Base, Dina was willing to stand on the frontline to fight and deal with them. Now that these magic beasts were even stronger, Dina was still willing to stay here.
As for the fact that she's a demonic magician and her practice will cause people who also become demonic magician to become her nutrients… many people have long turned blind eyes to this.
In any case, Dina still gave them a chance to grow.
But they limited the spread of the news to prevent Dina from having too many people who practiced this method. After all, they didn't want humans to kill each other just because they wanted to become stronger.
It would be better for them to fight against these magic beasts instead.
At least, if they did, no one would care about it.
Except for Murin.
But who cares about him.
"I'm fine," Dina said and looked at the front, waiting for more rank 7 magic beasts to come. Because if it was the weaker magic beasts, the soldiers could still deal with them.
