Chapter 3808: City of Desire

Chapter 3807 City of Desire

"The NPC information of the little witch..."

Angel didn't know how to comment for a moment.

Just from the introduction, one can imagine a "original sin" drama. The jealous magician launched a vigorous "witch hunt" against the family with special blood.

And the little witch is the only survivor of this witch hunt.

She escaped from the City of Desire to the Modern City, and escaped.

But this does not mean that the witch hunt is over. Once the identity of the little witch is exposed, it is estimated that it will lead to another bloody storm.

This is why even Kalein is reluctant to mention the real name of the little witch easily, because only hiding her identity is the only way to protect the little witch.

If other people in the Modern City see this information panel, it will probably be a carnival.

But after Angel saw it... his mood was not fluctuating.

The main thing is that he doesn't know this bloodline at all. Moreover, even if this bloodline has a very powerful place, it is only the situation in the "copy". I don't know what's going on in reality, so it's hard to feel it personally.

However, judging from the NPC information alone, this little witch does hide a deep secret.

Both the Cecilia family and the Dark Corner Witch are worth exploring.

There is also the "City of Desire", which is also a focus. This is another new city.

The only pity is that although the little witch has a side quest, it is currently shown as unfinished.

Although the side quest can be triggered and accepted, it is useless to accept it because it cannot be completed.

However, from the name of the quest and the information of the little witch, it can be basically inferred why it is "unfinished".

The quest is called "Blood of the Witch", and the blood of the Cecilia family comes from the "Dark Corner Witch". A "Dark Corner" can explain everything.

According to the information retrieved by Angel from the Sea of ​​Power, "Dark Corner" is an independent and untriggered copy.

The "Blood of the Witch" is likely to be explored in the "Dark Corner", just like the "Joker's Heart Knot" mission also has the option of going to the Dark Corner to find the mysterious child, but because the Dark Corner has not come to the world, it is shown as unfinished.

Angel asked Kalean to verify his speculation.

Kalean was surprised at first that Angel knew so much about Cecilia's family, but under the influence of the nightmare, he felt that everything was self-consistent and reasonable.

Kalean: "According to rumors, the blood of the little witch family does come from the 'Dark Corner Witch', so if you want to trace this blood, you may have to go to the Dark Corner."

"But the Dark Corner is very hidden, and no one knows how to get to the Dark Corner..."

Angel nodded. He didn't know how to go to the Dark Corner in the real Modern City; but in the Dream Crystal Origin, as long as the preconditions of the Dark Corner are triggered and the Dark Corner is descended, you can go to the Dark Corner.

But what exactly is the triggering condition, Angel is not very clear at present, and only guesses that it may be related to the former "Noble Knight".

However, these are not the focus of this discussion.

Angel thought for a while and asked again: "What kind of existence is the Dark Corner Witch?"

Kalean pondered for a long time before organizing his words and said: "The Dark Corner Witch is not the kind of unforgivable "witch" in novels and dramas. It is just a name for those humanoid creatures that come out of the dark corners."

As far as Kalean knows, humanoid creatures occasionally come out of the dark corners.

They are collectively called "Dark Corner People".

Dark Corner People with male appearance are called Dark Corner Magic Witches, and those with female appearance are Dark Corner Witches.

As for the essence of Dark Corner People? Kalean couldn't explain it clearly, but just said that they look like humans, but most of the time, under the human body are terrifying and evil unknown monsters.

Of course, it can't be said that all of them are monsters, but at least 99% of them are monsters. In this case, even if the Dark Corner People who are still rational will be cast into the evil camp.

And the source of the bloodline of Cecilia's family is said to be a Dark Corner People.

When Kalean described the content about the "Dark Corner Witch", there were many suspicious descriptions, including the nature of the Dark Corner people, all of which were ambiguous, because he didn't know the truth.

However, Angel could give an answer to this point.

He had checked the information about the Dark Corner before.

The information retrieved by the power clearly stated: Humans occasionally appear in the Dark Corner.

Therefore, these so-called Dark Corner people are also humans. Most of them are humans who accidentally entered the Dark Corner from the outside world and got lost, just like the former noble knight.

However, this information was followed by a paragraph: "Humans occasionally appear in the Dark Corner, but please don't believe them, because there is a high probability that their bodies have been occupied by unknown creatures."

Therefore, the magician's vigilance against the Dark Corner people is correct.

However, the Dark Corner person who can reproduce Cecilia's family is most likely still a human. Because if it is really an unknown creature, there will be no so-called rationality at all, let alone the concept of family inheritance.

However, whether Cecilia's ancestors are human or not, these discussions are basically meaningless now. After all, there is only one descendant left, the little witch.

Moreover, the little witch also stayed away from the city of desire that made Cecilia's family bear the blame.

As long as she doesn't think about revenge, she should be able to live well in Modern City. After all, Modern City doesn't seem to have the concept of "dark corner people".

Karen: "Modern City does not have the concept of dark corner people, because Modern City is a new city."

The City of Desire is an old city that has existed for thousands of years. Although the frequency of dark corner people is low, if the time scale is extended to a thousand years, there will always be a large number of records.

It is natural to sort out these records and define them as "dark corner people".

But Modern City, because it was only established in the past few hundred years, even if dark corner people appear, if the managers of Modern City do not systematically capture and record them, it will be difficult to form a large-scale study, and naturally there will be no corresponding records and definitions.

"This is also the reason why we chose to come to Modern City, just to prevent the little witch from repeating the same mistakes."

The above is the explanation given by Karen.

Angell also agreed with some of them. Modern City may not have formed a large-scale research and definition, but it still cares about the "Dark Corner People" and has not stopped capturing them.

For example, the mysterious child in the mission "The Clown's Heart Knot" is a Dark Corner People? It was precisely because of the Fashion Guild's capture of him that Sisley's tragedy occurred...

Angel: "So, you are indeed not a local force in Modern City?"

Kalen nodded: "We are from the City of Desire."

To be precise, some of the senior members of the Hermit Association came from the City of Desire. And these senior members do not exceed two palms.

As for the clear-eyed employees that Angell saw in the headquarters, some of them are locals, and the other part is recruited by Kalen on the way to Modern City.

"Can we talk about the City of Desire? I am very interested in this city." Angell looked at Kalen.

When Kalen mentioned the City of Desire before, it was very natural. It seemed that the knowledge was not "shielded" by the power of the fairyland, which made Angell feel curious.

However, when Angel formally asked about the information of "Desire City", Kalean, like the others before, showed obvious lag.

When Angel saw this, he knew it was difficult to get an answer.

As expected, Kalean shook his head and whispered: "Since leaving Desire City, we have decided to abandon the memories of the past..."

After a speech, Kalean seemed to think that this was their true thoughts.

But Angel understood that this was probably a forced setting given by the power of the fairyland.

This was not that the power of the fairyland deliberately made things difficult for Angel.

For the power of the fairyland, the copy of the modern city only has the scope of the modern city, and other cities have not been "captured" and no copies have been formed, only some marginal information.

If you really want to ask for specific information, the power of the fairyland itself does not know, so naturally it cannot be revealed.

Unless the power of the fairyland happens to capture the dream of the "Desire City" next time and form a corresponding copy. Otherwise, it is currently difficult to speak directly about the information of the Desire City.

Of course, it's not completely impossible.

If there is a "NPC in a dream state" in this copy, then information can be obtained from him. However, Angel has not yet found the dream NPC in Modern City.

Although Kalean said that he had abandoned the past, he still answered some "basic" questions.

The City of Desire is a city dominated by desire.

The three major camps in this city are the hedonistic faction, the abstinence faction, and the ascetic faction. Kalean and others, including the little witch, belong to the abstinence faction.

The hedonistic faction and the abstinence faction are very simple to understand, just the literal meaning. The abstinence faction refers to the faction that advocates moderate control and regulation of desire.

They recognize that the existence of desire is human nature, but they believe that desire cannot be indulged without restraint, but should be selectively satisfied according to their own situation, moral standards and social values.

To put it bluntly, it is... normal people.

Therefore, the Hermits will have no obstacles in integrating into the Modern City, and will not be hindered by different factions, because according to the camp division of the City of Desire, the people of Modern City are basically abstinence factions.

In addition, Kalean also talked about some of the facade monsters of the major factions in the City of Desire.

The Charming Perfume Bottle of the Indulgence Faction, the Iron Maiden of the Abstinence Faction.

As for the facade monsters of the Abstinence Faction, there is no difference between them and the facade monsters of the Modern City.

Although Kalean did not tell much, Angel also had a certain understanding of the City of Desire. Compared with the city of Modern City that pursues balance, the City of Desire seems to pursue more extremes.

After learning about the information of the City of Desire, Angel brought the topic back to the Hermits.

Mainly wanting to understand some of the structure of the Hermits, the background of the Hermits, and the goals of the Hermits... and so on.

Five minutes later.

Angel erased Kalean's memory of "himself" and let him return to the attic outside.

After Kalean left, Angel began to think about what Kalean said before.

The Hermits were indeed newly established as Angel thought. And the main purpose of establishing the Hermits was to protect the little witch.

Why did the Cecilia family suffer so much in the City of Desire? In addition to the "original sin" of bloodline, it was the lack of strength.

If they had strong allies in the City of Desire, had their own trained magicians, and had a complete organizational structure, they would not have been defeated so easily.

After learning from the past, the first step they took when they came to Modern City was to create an organization.

This was the original intention of the Hermits, in order not to repeat the same mistakes.

As for the foundation of the Hermits, Kalean's answer was: the talent pool is not as good as that of the big guilds, but the asset pool is not bad.

The assets here include Modern Coins and various precious materials.

However, Kalean is not sure how many there are, because the person in charge of this is Ms. Lila, who is also the real president of the Hermits.

Angel also asked about Lila's information.

However, Kalean didn't know much, just that Lila was the little witch's sister. Not a biological sister, but she grew up with the little witch since childhood.

She is a powerful magician with creative series, popularity series, and manufacturing series.

It is precisely because of Lila's escort that they can circle such a large territory in the deep black market and establish the Hermits safely.

It is worth mentioning that Ms. Lila is not in Modern City. According to Kalean, she went to the suburbs to recruit people.

Many people in the Hermit Society were recruited in this way. That's why they have the clarity that city people don't have.

She might be similar to the "Wind Knight" and "Treasure Knight" among the Seven Knights. Although their names are in the dungeon, they are not in the Modern City for many years, so they will not really appear in the current dungeon.

It's more like a "setting supplement".

Since it's just a character in the "setting", Angel didn't care too much.

Before Kalean left, Angel also asked for a piece of information, which is the special thing about the little witch.

Whether it's the Star-Shining Butterfly Spirit owned by the little witch, or the fashion monster that can be used as a communication repeater, Angel is very curious, how did the little witch do it?

Is it because she has the blood of the "Dark Corner Witch", so she can "attract fashion monsters" like Zuniga?

However, the answer given by Kalean surprised Angel.

The little witch does have some special talents, but Kalean is not sure whether this talent comes from the bloodline.

Her talent is very crude and direct: the fashion monster book pages she obtains by participating in the mission challenge have a higher probability of obtaining rare abilities.

In other words, as long as she obtains a complete puzzle by participating in the challenge, the probability of the skills, special abilities and hidden abilities that are finally opened will increase.

This is why there are so many rare abilities in the little witch's magic book.
