Herbart handed the gold pocket watch to Bai Xiaowen, turned around and left the gate.
Bai Xiaowen looked at the old man's back thoughtfully. If it was just a notification, just send a guard there. But Herbart went there in person, which shows that the status of the witch Kailuowen is still very high in Wutu Town.
, similar to a spiritual leader.
"Why are you so wary of outsiders?" Bai Xiaowen said, "I think this pocket watch can eliminate my suspicion. I am not a devil."
The two guards seemed a little dissatisfied with Bai Xiaowen, but due to Bai Xiaowen's high charm, they did not refuse to communicate.
"A few years ago, there was a city-state called 'Ketsko' on the opposite side of the Black Swamp," a guard said slowly. "The city of Ketsko was the last human paradise in the Black Swamp. But overnight, it sank.
After going underground, almost no one can escape... Some brave people tried to go to Kotsko, but found that it was like a maze and it was impossible to go deep."
Another guard said: "From then on Ketsko became the 'Forgotten City'."
Bai Xiaowen said: "Didn't any of the residents of the Forgotten City escape?"
"It is said that sporadic survivors escaped, and there are various rumors about the reason for the sinking of Ketsko. The most recognized theory at present is that a very, very powerful demon king was mixed into the city-state, and it was this demon king who launched the
He cast a terrifying spell and turned Kotsko into a forgotten city."
Bai Xiaowen finally understood why the guards were so wary of travelers.
"What is the origin of this devil?" Bai Xiaowen asked.
The guard glanced at Bai Xiaowen: "You know the Seven Demon Kings of Hell, right?"
Bai Xiaowen: "I've heard of it." He did know the Seven Demon Kings in the Big Pineapple (Diablo) game, but they were probably different from the Seven Demon Kings in the Dark Age plane.
The guard said: "The demon king who destroyed Ketsko is named 'Rochelle'. This is a very special demon king. He likes to transform into a human being, travel in the dark continent, and observe humans. His character is moody, but no matter what
Whether he is happy or angry, the gathering points of human beings that he regards as objects of observation will inevitably be destroyed by him. The city of Ketsko is just one of them."
Another guard added: "'Devil Lord Rochelle' is still too scary. People like to call him the nickname, 'The Thinker'."
"Thinker..."
Bai Xiaowen noticed that the guards used the pronoun "him", which showed that the guards had regarded the demon king Rochelle as a god-like existence.
The nickname "Thinker" is proof that Demon King Rochelle is highly intelligent.
but……
Bai Xiaowen asked the question in his mind: "Why are you so familiar with the Demon King? Where do you know his name, information and nickname?"
Bai Xiaowen didn't believe that any of these people had seen the Thinker.
The guard said: "You don't know? Some humans believe in demon kings and worship them as gods, so the 'Old God Sect' was born. All rumors about the Demon King came from the Ancient God Sect. Could it be that Ka
There is no ancient god sect or similar sect branch among the Ta people?"
Bai Xiaowen shook his head.
He felt that the humans who believed in the devil in the Dark Age were probably patients with Stockholm Syndrome. In fact, this is quite normal.
After chatting with the two guards for a few more times, Bai Xiaowen also learned some information about other demon kings through indirect speculation.
For example, the Demon King Ismon, known as the "Silver King", is the Demon King who likes to organize armies, launch wars and enjoy the fun of war the most. The territory under his control is the paradise of a few demons who yearn for order, and of course
The most miserable hell for mankind.
It is worth mentioning that the Black Swamp, including Utu Town, is the sphere of influence of the "Silver King".
In addition, there is the demon king Nibroz, known as the "tyrant". It is said that he eats two hundred cows a day, and his appetite can never be satisfied.
In the teachings of the "Old God Sect", the Silver King Ismen, the Thinker Rochelle and the Tyrant Nibroz are called the three supreme "Old Gods".
Human beings who do not believe in the teachings of the ancient gods certainly regard these three as the most powerful demon kings.
In addition to the three "Supreme Demon Kings", there are four other demon kings. Their strength may not be as strong as the Supreme Demon King, but they have caused no less or even more suffering to mankind.
Bai Xiaowen chatted with the guard for a while, and then he saw Herbart slowly walking over with a woman shrouded in black robes.
"I'm talking about this traveler. He brought your father's relics here and insisted on handing them over to you," Herbart said.
The woman in black robe came to Bai Xiaowen and lifted her hood.
"Are you Daphne Freval?" Bai Xiaowen took out the broken gold pocket watch and handed it over.
The woman in black robe's voice was slightly hoarse: "Please call me Kai Luowen."
After receiving the golden pocket watch, the witch Kai Luowen's hands trembled obviously. This made Bai Xiaowen slightly surprised. The witch's performance when she saw the golden pocket watch seemed to be a bit exaggerated.
Is there any secret in this watch? Or is it simply because of her longing for her father.
When the witch Kailuowen confirmed the portrait and last words in the golden pocket watch, Bai Xiaowen was also observing this "last prophet in the dark continent".
The witch Kai Luowen has flaxen hair and a sickly pale skin, probably because she has not seen the sun for many years.
Her appearance is still very beautiful, like porcelain, with a fragile and delicate feel.
Judging from her age, the witch Kai Luowen should be over twenty-five years old.
This shows that the portrait of the little girl in her father Abin Freval's pocket watch should have been left more than ten years ago, nearly twenty years ago. Bai Xiaowen looked carefully, but he could not see the witch Kailuowen in front of him.
What are the similarities between the little girls in the portraits? It can only be said that women have changed since they were eighteen years old.
Soon, the witch Kailuowen completed the confirmation.
She took a deep breath and could still see her white fingertips and trembling fingers.
"Excuse me...did you discover this pocket watch yourself?"
Bai Xiaowen nodded.
"Didn't someone else give it to you?"
Bai Xiaowen was a little surprised that the witch Kailuowen was taking things too seriously.
However, he still nodded and said: "I found this from the corpses of a group of demonized hunters. Unfortunately, I think one of the demonized hunters should be your father."
The witch Kai Luowen suddenly took a step back, lifted up her skirt, and knelt down in front of Bai Xiaowen.
Bai Xiaowen was a little confused for a moment. Do you want such a big gift?
However, the next words of the witch Kailuowen made Bai Xiaowen even more confused:
