Chapter 3718 The Dark Lord

Chapter 3717 The Dark King

"Why does the Noble Knight know his identity?" Angel was a little curious.

Bonette: "Because every time the Dark King issues a task, it is conveyed by the Noble Knight. Although there is no chief in the Knights, if you insist on saying the chief, the Noble Knight deserves it."

"I see." Angel nodded, and then asked some more information about the Dark King.

However, Bonette didn't know much about the Dark King.

In particular, Bonette didn't have any clues directly pointing to the Dark King. The only information she knew about the Dark King was some tasks that the Dark King had sent through the Noble Knight.

Angel also listened to the tasks assigned by the Dark King.

After listening to a few tasks, Angel found that although these tasks had basically nothing to do with the Dark King's personal information, they were extremely important.

Usually, the Dark Round Table would be completely managed by the Seven Knights, and the Dark King would hardly ask about anything.

But once the Dark King assigns a task, it is a very important task, and some tasks can almost subvert the structure of the entire underground block.

For example, the construction of 66 underground cities is a task assigned by the Dark King.

In addition, the original site of the Eighth Town was originally a huge reservoir full of wastewater. When the Flame Knight came here, he evaporated all the wastewater and burned the remaining pollution sources. And this task was also assigned by the Dark King.

It can be said that as long as the Dark King assigns a task, it is a major change.

From this point of view, the Dark King is in line with his identity: the king hidden in the underground block.

It was he who drove away the filth little by little and built a home for the residents of the underground block.

Worthy of the name.

Unfortunately, Angel could not lock the identity of the Dark King through these tasks.

Angel thought for a while: "Have you ever guessed the identity of the Dark King?"

Bonette thought for a moment and nodded.

Although she was indifferent to many things, it was impossible for her to say that she had no guesses about the identity of her "superior".

But even if she had guesses, she could not get confirmation.

Because of the mark, she could not even talk to the people in the Knights about the Dark King.

So, guesses were limited to guesses and could not be counted.

Angel: "No problem, I want to hear your guesses."

Angel knew that most of the guesses were undocumented, but sometimes "your unwarranted associations and unwarranted guesses" were actually a kind of inspiration, or the guidance of the soul.

For example, Angel once heard a story.

There was a man who had never left the village since he was born. In all these years, he knew everything about the village. He could see at a glance what happened in the village, and even noticed that the small trees on the roadside were transplanted and the flowers and plants were picked.

But he did not have any extraordinary abilities or extraordinary memory. He just lived here for too long and was familiar with every plant and tree here.

On this day, he was strolling in the village as usual.

While strolling, he found that everything in the village was the same as before, but he felt uneasy in his heart.

He saw a group of children playing, and there was a number 666 on the children's clothes. This number, in his belief, represents a bad meaning, and its homophony is related to death.

He saw three snakes crawling out of the snake hole and crawling towards the dark swamp. It is not uncommon for snakes to come out of the hole, but the swamp they went to was where someone fell and drowned a few days ago. Moreover, the posture of the three snakes when they moved was a bit like three 6s.

He also saw a nasty guy coming back from the city. He asked himself the time, and the man looked at his pocket watch, which was exactly 6:06.

These things he saw were actually common things, but he felt something was wrong.

He vaguely guessed that something bad might happen.

He told others about his guess, but no one believed him.

He himself knew that these groundless guesses were too bizarre and he couldn't convince others, but his anxiety made it impossible for him to do nothing. So he left the village overnight and went to the next village.

When he woke up the next day, he saw the villagers around him looking at him with sympathy. At this time, he learned the bad news that because of the landslide, his home and the entire village were buried underground, and no one survived.

And he escaped because he came to the next village.

This story is a true story, which is recorded in the "Inspiration" magazine published by Sky Machinery City.

After telling this story, the author gave an explanation: Many times, your guesses seem to be groundless, but they are not. The subconscious is like a sophisticated calculator. It combines extracorporeal information, environmental information and your interpersonal communication, and gives you a self-righteous guess, but it is actually a warning answer, which is inspiration.

Even ordinary people have inspiration.

The inspiration of extraordinary people is even more amazingly accurate.

This is why Angel asked Bonette about her guess. Perhaps her subconscious mind had already grasped the identity of the Dark Lord, but Bonette herself didn't know it.

Bonette thought for a moment: "My guess doesn't point to a specific person. Because I'm not very familiar with the people here."

For that reason, Bonette's time to join the Dark Round Table was too short, and because of her own characteristics, she could only choose to become a home girl isolated from the outside world. Because of this, she didn't know a few big shots at all. Bonette couldn't directly guess the specific identity of the Lord of Darkness.

However, Bonnet also has her own guess:

"I found that almost all the tasks assigned by the Dark King are to restore disorder to order."

For example, the chaotic underground neighborhoods can be rebuilt into towns, and the disordered life can be restored to a state of order.

For another example, the Lord of Darkness planned the waterways in the underground city so that wastewater and clean water would no longer mix, and disorder would be restored to order.

There are many more examples.

The Lord of Darkness is like a savior, creating a stable living environment for the people in the underground city.

This is probably why the people of the Knights are so loyal to the Lord of Darkness.

However, Bonette always felt that this method of "returning disorder to order" was too familiar.

"I once thought about the question, who desires order?"

"People in underground neighborhoods? No. Although order can bring a good environment and improve life, people living in underground neighborhoods have never been exposed to order before. They don't know the benefits of order. More people They will only feel that they are bound and have lost their freedom. They are too short-sighted and do not know the benefits of order, but only see the disadvantages of order, so it should not be them."

"Are they from the Knights? It's possible, but most of the Knights also grew up slowly from the people of chaos. Most of them don't know the benefits of order, and they have become the Seven Knights. Their rights are superior to countless people. Above all, the more disordered the society at this time, the more fun it will bring them."

"So, I thought about many possibilities. People who really desire order may be people who live under order."

"It may even be the person who created the order. He sits on the highest throne. He has the strongest rights. He desires everything to be under the order he created. Only in this way will unexpected changes not happen."

When Bonette said this, she stopped and said to Angel: "This is my guess. I don't know who it is, but I feel... the King of Darkness may come from the sun."

Under the sun is just a nickname, the underground neighborhood's name for the group of people living on the surface.

The sunshine here is not just real sunshine, but also means that they have a "legal" identity and can live an upright life without hiding in dark underground waterways.

After hearing this, Angel's eyes flickered.

Bonette's guess is very interesting. Although she did not clearly give the specific identity, she has actually defined the scope.

The only people who can create order are those "under the sun" who stand at the top of the pyramid of the modern city.

Including people who have been crowned kings in the past dynasties, as well as people from city officials, and people from fashion guilds.

Assuming that Bonnet's guess is correct, then based on Angel's superficial understanding, he personally prefers people who have been crowned kings in the past, as well as people from city officials.

Because the Fashion Guild and the Dark Round Table are themselves hostile and competitive.

If the Lord of Darkness is the top leader of the Fashion Guild, and he deliberately created a hostile organization for himself, why are you? Angel was a little confused about the logic of the behavior.

Therefore, in his opinion, people who have been crowned kings and officials in the past dynasties are more likely.

Especially official people.

Those who pursue order the most, and those who hope for stability and harmony above and below the ground, are definitely the officials.

So, maybe the Dark Lord is official?

Angel didn't know, but he felt it was possible.

Later, when I have free time, I can observe the official actions.

…

Bonette's understanding of the Lord of Darkness is all it currently has.

Although she didn't know much information herself, her guess was very interesting.

Closer to home, after asking the Lord of Darkness, Angel asked some more secret questions about the wandering house and fashion monsters.

After asking more questions, Angel then looked at Sisley.

Sisley was still sitting against the wall. He looked very relaxed, and his eyelids were still drooped, as if he was resisting sleepiness.

It can also be seen from this that Bonette's characteristics are very outrageous. It has been more than ten minutes, and Sisley has not completely escaped from the influence.

"Bonette, you should know him, right?"

Bonnet nodded: "He's Sisley."

Angel: "Do you know his story?"

Bonette looked confused: "What's his story? I don't know... I only know that he has been staying in the Children's Fun House and is a magician who likes children."

Angel smiled and said nothing, but came directly to Sisley and knocked on his shoulder.

In Sisley's confused eyes, Angel said: "Don't you want to find the identity of the mysterious child? Bonnet is right in front of you, you can ask him."

Angel decided to let Sisley ask Bonnet himself.

Sisley was a little confused at first, but with Angel's guidance, he recalled everything he had experienced over the years, and recalled his former partners in the Asiatic Circus... The sleepiness that was still latent was completely eliminated at this moment. Water to wake up.

He stood up suddenly and looked at Bonnet with burning eyes.

The obsession hidden in his heart made Sisley break through the aftereffects of Bonette's characteristics.

Angel even thought that he had broken through the blockade of nightmare, but after checking, he found that nightmare was still affecting him.

Angel was relieved.

Next, it was the conversation between Sisley and Bonette.

After listening to Sisley's story, Bonette fell into a period of contemplation, as if she was recalling something...

After a while, Bonette whispered: "I don't know about the Asia Circus. At that time, I hadn't even joined the Dark Round Table."

What Bonette said was true.

The incident of Asia Circus happened six years ago, and Bonette joined the Dark Round Table three years ago.

Bonnet: "Although I don't know what you said, you mentioned that you had looked for the former noble knight..."

Sisley nodded: "Yes, about five years ago, I met the former noble knight after I came to the underground block. I asked for his help."

"But he only gave me some advice and didn't tell me the identity of the child. After that, he seemed to leave the Eighth Town to avoid me, and I never saw the noble knight again."

Bonnet nodded in understanding, thought for a moment, and said slowly: "Three years ago, not long after I joined the Dark Round Table, the Dark King once assigned a task to the Knights."

"He asked us to find the former noble knight."

Sisley: "???"

Bonnet: "He didn't avoid you, but disappeared."

Sisley's eyes flashed with trance.

Bonnet continued, "I can't help with this mission. It's basically other people in the Knights who are looking for it. But as a member of the Knights, I have also learned about this mission in detail and have read the information of the former Noble Knight."

"In this information, I saw that the former Noble Knight returned to the Round Table for the first time after resigning, just to find out the identity of a child."

Sisley's eyes flashed with light, and he nodded repeatedly: "Yes, after I came to the underground block, I immediately asked him to help find out. He agreed at the time and then went to the Round Table."

"However, after he came back, he didn't tell me any news. It wasn't until I took the circus orphan to see him that he gave me some advice."

Speaking of this, Sisley looked at Bonnet with hope: "Does the identity of the child mentioned in that information?"

Bonnet was silent for a moment and shook her head: "No."

Sisley's eyes were instantly lost.

At this time, Bonette continued: "However, this record is marked in red in the data, which means important content. When I saw it, I asked the current noble knight why this record was marked in red?"

"The current noble knight told me that it was because the child he inquired about had a very mysterious origin."

"He came from... a dark corner."
