After several hours of flying at low altitude and walking close to the ground, Bai Xiaowen finally saw a human settlement near a black swamp.
This settlement has quite complete defense facilities, including quite tall log walls and wooden bunkers for shooters to hide.
The two spiked wooden pillars at the door impaled the corpses of two demons of destruction, probably to warn other demons.
Of course, this approach has a greater psychological comfort effect on humans, and the warning to devils is approximately zero.
Such a city wall can be used in wars between ordinary mortals, but in the plane of evolution and in the war with demons, the defensive capability is infinitely close to zero.
This human settlement has been able to survive until now without being destroyed by demons. It is probably true as the intelligence said. Demons will not actively unite to exterminate humans, but have the idea of raising humans in captivity for fun.
Of course, the settlement itself must also have a certain number of strong men. Their main task is to guard against scattered demons wandering over.
…
In front of the settlement gate, there were two guards holding long guns.
Bai Xiaowen observed it and could see that the two guards were both elite-level in strength.
"stop!"
One of the guards looked at Bai Xiaowen and said, "Who are you? I have never seen you!"
Another guard said: "Looking at this young man's black hair and pupils, he looks very much like the Kata people from the eastern tribe."
The first guard shook his head: "Katar people? Impossible. This is the darkest hell on the mainland, where the 'Lord of Disaster' rules. Every month, people try to cross the blockade of the Lord of Disaster and escape to the east.
Go, how could anyone be willing to come?"
The two guards spoke ancient Latin.
When Bai Xiaowen faced these guards, he did not lie. He directly took out the broken gold pocket watch: "I am a traveler from afar. This is what I got after killing the demon. The clues inside point to a woman named Daphne.
Freval's little girl. Do you know her?"
The two guards were still wary of him, but after seeing that Bai Xiaowen had no intention of getting close, they were still willing to help him recall.
"Freval? This last name is a bit familiar, but we have never heard of the little girl's name you mentioned."
"Really?" Bai Xiaowen frowned, he believed in his own judgment even more.
"Of course, there are not many people in Utu Town. We have lived here for more than ten years and we know everyone in the town very well," the guard replied.
Of course Bai Xiaowen could see that the guard was not lying.
He closed his eyes and rethought his previous reasoning.
The super brain is easy to use. An idea flashed in Bai Xiaowen's mind, and he suddenly discovered what he had missed before.
time!
Who knows how many years it has been since Abin Freval was corrupted into a demonic hunter?
Maybe one or two years, maybe ten or twenty years.
A very likely situation is that Daphne Freval has grown up and is no longer the little girl in the portrait. She has the ability to live independently, so the possibility of her staying in Utu Town will increase.
There has been a decline.
For example, marrying outside, or as the guards said, passing through the blockade of the Lord of Disaster and escaping to the east.
Bai Xiaowen opened the mechanism of the golden pocket watch, took out the portrait with writing on it, handed it to the guard and said, "Please help me take a look at this little girl..."
"Stop and don't move!"
The two guards were very vigilant. When they saw Bai Xiaowen moving forward, they immediately stopped and even raised their spears.
Bai Xiaowen shook his head. He was in a hurry and couldn't argue with these guards. Since the two of them were unwilling to believe him, they could only resort to force.
Intimidation was used, and the two guards instantly froze.
Bai Xiaowen said: "If I have any malicious intentions, you won't have any chance - do you still doubt that I am a devil?"
"Put away your sorcery, Farstrider."
Suddenly, an old voice sounded, and an old man covered in armor walked over.
This old man has slightly dark hair, pure white temples, and two black beards, but he is in good spirits. Judging from his spiritual power, he should be a high-level leader.
Bai Xiaowen put away his threats.
"If you're looking for someone, I think I can help you."
The old man said calmly, "My name is Herbart, the guard instructor of Utu Town. I have been here since the establishment of this refuge, and I know much more detailed information than these two young men."
Bai Xiaowen handed the broken golden pocket watch to Herbart.
Unexpectedly, after seeing the pocket watch, Herbart's eyes suddenly widened.
He seemed a little unconvinced and took the pocket watch. After looking at it carefully for a while, he rubbed the metal pattern on it and sighed: "I already know whose relic this is... Captain Aibing, it seems you have met him."
.”
Bai Xiaowen emphasized: "It's 'it'."
Herbart nodded: "You are right."
He turned on the switch, looked carefully at the portrait of Daphne Freval, and showed a smile of memory: "This is Daphne when she was a child. Time flies so fast."
Bai Xiaowen asked: "Is Daphne Freval in this town?"
Herbart nodded: "Yes, but she is no longer called by this name. She has become a witch, a prophet, and a student of the great sage Erasmus."
"Prophet, great sage Erasmus?" Hearing this string of terms, Bai Xiaowen was confused, but he didn't reveal anything unusual.
It seems to be somewhat similar to my role in the Kuroshio plane.
Herbart continued: "The great sage Erasmus gave her a new name, called Kai Luo Wen. Now there is no little Daphne, only the witch Kai Luo Wen. Since the great sage Erasmus died of illness, the witch witch
Kai Luowen is the last prophet on this continent."
Both guards were taken aback.
Bai Xiaowen was shocked because he got the "mission update" prompt.
The gold pocket watch that was originally going to be given to "Daphne Freval" is now given to "The Witch Kai Luo Wen".
In other words, the old man did not deceive himself, he told the truth.
Herbart added: "Young man, thank you for bringing this pocket watch back. I will return it to the witch Kai Luowen."
Bai Xiaowen said: "Can I enter Wutu Town? I have to hand the pocket watch to her with my own hands."
"You actually doubted a noble man." Both guards were a little angry.
Herbart was very calm and nodded slightly: "You don't know me, so you don't believe me. This is reasonable. I can invite the witch Kailuowen to come out and meet you in front of the gate. You still can't
