“I’m sorry to tell you that I also gave General Lu Nian the permission to conduct experiments on the Demon Element in the north,” Chief Hua told Mo Fan.

Mo Fan stared at the man in shock.

“Of course, I had already asked Lu Nian to stop the experiment after the Magic Association banned it. I never thought he would set up a camp and continue experimenting on the Demon Element. He was so obsessed with the experiments it was like he had gone mad, treating human lives as nothing,” Chief Hua went on.

Mo Fan remained silent. There were a lot of things he did not understand about the man.

“I know everything you did in the Ancient Capital. I thought you would turn into a real demon, like the rest of the test subjects, but you managed to control it.”

“In other words, it was you who set me up?” Mo Fan protested, an edge to his voice.

“Didn’t I make up for it, too?” Chief Hua raised his brows.

“Fine, we shouldn’t discuss it now,” Mo Fan snapped.

General Lu Nian had almost killed them all, but Mo Fan had also obtained a unique power as a result. If he used it wisely, he would be able to take on the strongest creatures in the world.

“You saw what happened. Even though Forbidden Mages are like gods among humans, they are just puppets used by the ancient Emperors to stir up havoc. Humans are too weak, after all,” Chief Hua stared at the sea. The moonlight was reflected on his face.

“Indeed, the Forbidden Curse revised my understanding of the world,” Mo Fan had to agree.

How strong was the South Pole Emperor if it was responsible for the rise of the sea and the calamity they were in, not to mention having the ability to control a human Forbidden Mage?

“Shao Zheng asked you to look for the Totem Beasts. How is it going so far?” Chief Hua inquired.

“I’ve found a few of them, but I’m still far from learning their secrets,” Mo Fan admitted.

“Then tell me your understanding of the Totem Beasts,” Chief Hua said.

“The ancient Totem Beasts were once the first guardians of the human race in our homeland, but they gradually disappeared from our land after the Magic Civilization. I’m guessing the Magic Association killed them in one of the eras,” Mo Fan said.

Chief Hua turned to Mo Fan with a surprised face. “Why would you think that? Isn’t the Magic Association supreme and sacred?” Chief Hua asked him.

“I don’t have any evidence to prove it, but we can notice certain patterns through history. Humans obtained the power to fight demon creatures after the Awakening of Magic. On the other hand, the Totem Beasts were worshiped as gods. Most importantly, many ancient species are the descendants of the Totem Beasts.

“The Magic Association has its current authoritative status and influence across the world because it has overthrown the Totem Beasts. In simpler words, humans used to worship Totem Beasts, but they are now relying on themselves. The Totem Beasts might be powerful creatures that are friendly with humans, but to us, they are still demon creatures. In order to promote magic, it was necessary to overthrow the old gods.”

Mo Fan was sharing his speculation that humans were the ones who had killed the Totem Beasts.

The Parthenon Temple had also killed the Tyrant Titans. The Tyrant Titans were ancient gods, similar to the Totem Beasts. They were once close with humans, protecting humans and ruling over them.

It was true that most Tyrant Titans were savage. They had taken a lot of innocent lives, but there were kind Tyrant Titans, too. The Parthenon Temple had tried to kill them all to establish its dynasty.

The histories of many countries were very similar. Most Totem Beasts in China were described as friendly and kind, but there had to be those that were evil and cruel, as well.

After humans obtained power, the Totem Beasts would eventually be killed, regardless of their nature. The kind and friendly Totem Beasts could not escape their fates. They would be abandoned by humans and lured into deadly traps.

As a result, most Totem Beasts that had once ruled humans in their country had died off. The remainder hid in deep mountains and woods to stay away from humans.

“So do you think our ancestors were wrong?” Chief Hua asked him.

Mo Fan shook his head. Every species would rise and fall as time went by. “Am I wrong?” Mo Fan asked in turn.

Surely, the man knew a lot more about the Totem Beasts. Otherwise, he would not ask Mo Fan about them.

“You are not wrong. It’s a valid reasoning. The Totem Beasts were slain less than a hundred years after humans Awakened our Magic. The alliance that killed the Totem Beasts eventually established the Magic Association. They now have a superior status among mankind,” Hua Zhanhong confirmed.

Hua Zhanhong paused and poured a glass of water for Mo Fan. “But, you are only half-right.”

Mo Fan drank a mouthful of water. He could tell Chief Hua had a long story to tell him. He sat upright and waited for the Forbidden Mage to share his understanding of the Totem Beasts with them.

“Didn’t I tell you we humans have been through darker times, and made it through?” Hua Zhanhong said.

Mo Fan nodded.

“During that time, we had just obtained our own power. The old Magic Association was expelling and hunting the Totem Beasts,” Hua Zhanhong informed him.

“Did we have a tough battle with the Totem Beasts?” Mo Fan asked.

Hua Zhanhong shook his head and said, “The Totem Beasts weren’t fighting back fiercely, but lots of sea monsters resided along the coasts of our country. A kingdom referring to itself as the Sea Gods invaded our lands and slaughtered our people. The human Mages suffered a huge blow and were almost wiped out during that time.”

Mo Fan’s face filled with astonishment.

The sea monsters had once launched a full-scale invasion at them, and almost taken out all the Mages?

If humans did not have Mages, most people would end up as slaves to the demon creatures, or livestock!

“We paid a huge price for our pride back then. We were fighting the Totem Beasts while fending off the sea monsters. We were attacked from the front and the rear, but… we survived,” Hua Zhanhong recalled the tough times of mankind.

“How did we make it?” Mo Fan asked, almost in disbelief.

“I had thought we made it because of magic. Perhaps we made a breakthrough in one of the Elements that allowed us to survive the dark times, but someone came to me and told me that the Mages only survived and did not end up as the demon creatures’ slaves because of the Totem Beasts!” Hua Zhanhong said.

The Totem Beasts? Weren’t humans fighting with the Totem Beasts?

Mo Fan was confused!
