Versatile Mage: Summon eight demons at the beginning

Chapter 169: Forbidden Spell Fear
……

“According to you, how did humans survive to this day?” Mo Fan was a little unconvinced.

Why does it sound so similar to what that crazy guy Lu Nian said back then?
Are humans surviving between demons and monsters?

“You’re not trying to say that humans are actually being raised by demons, are you?” Mo Fan asked suspiciously.

Jiang Yu was stunned, "How did you know?"

The truth about the human world is a fact known only to a very small number of high-ranking officials. What most people know is that human wizards resist the invasion of demons in order to inspire people, or to stabilize people's hearts.

Otherwise, once many cruel truths are exposed, humans may destroy themselves due to internal strife before the demons launch a formal attack.

The magic associations of the five continents, as well as the highest magic associations of each country, have reached a unified attitude towards these truths.

hide.

He also learned some secrets from his teacher Pang Lai, but how could Mo Fan think of these?
If a military wizard who has been fighting monsters on the front line for years had such thoughts, he thought it was normal, but Mo Fan had never been to the front line, so how could he think to this extent?
“No, are you serious?” Mo Fan was a little unsure.

He had even experienced the Ancient Capital's Undead Battlefield and survived the scene that made even the super-class mages despair. Could the Demon Empire be more outrageous than the Ancient Capital?
"If you want to talk about the ancient capital, I can tell you clearly that the scene can only be regarded as a minor incident." Lu Cheng said.

Mo Fan looked strange, "Are you serious?"

"Of course." Lu Cheng shrugged.

"I'll tell you a secret. The kind of thing you saw in the sky at that time was in the double digits in the sea."

Mo Fan’s expression froze.

"Two...two digits?"

"No, that shouldn't be said." Lu Cheng paused.

"Because there are several more exaggerated ones than that one."

The incarnation he created in the ancient capital at that time could only barely reach the level of a small emperor, but in the sea, there were many small emperors, and there were even several sea monster emperors who were close to the level of a dominant emperor.

While he was sleeping, Basha went for a swim in the sea. No, she swam halfway and then ran back.

Can't beat it!
Even though he is immortal, Basha is not the kind of person who would be so stupid as to ask for a beating.

She was alone, and she had to be stupid to face an entire Siren Empire, not to mention that she had already detected a dozen or so members of the Siren Empire!

Let’s wait for a while to recover, and then we can do it together.

“Several?” Mo Fan was completely stunned.

There are several beings more outrageous than the devil in the sea? !
"..."

The expressions of the other people in the car also looked a little strange.

They all came from powerful families, so naturally they had heard a little about the dark demon that had appeared in the ancient capital before. However, the country's highest magic association had blocked these things, and their families had also told them not to talk about them outside.

But, there are double digits of that kind of thing in the sea?

There are even several things that are scarier than that thing?

"Then how did humans survive until now?" Mo Fan suddenly began to believe what that madman Lu Nian said.

"The general understanding is that it is because humans have forbidden spells." Jiang Shaoxu said.

"Human forbidden spell masters can form a kind of restraint between themselves and the demon emperors. As long as the forbidden spells are not moved, the emperors will basically not appear."

"Forbidden spell?" Mo Fan looked puzzled.

"What the hell is that?"

This was the second time he had heard the term forbidden spell. The first time was when he heard it from the demon man in the ancient capital.

"You can think of it as a strategic-level weapon of mass destruction," Zhao Manyan said.

"The power of the forbidden spell is terrifying. Even the demon king would be afraid of it, but the cost of activating it is too high."

"Using the forbidden spell can basically be considered a mutual destruction."

Moreover, for the Forbidden Spell Masters, casting a Forbidden Spell is not as simple as casting a high-level or super-level magic. Most people who can glimpse the threshold of Forbidden Spell are already old, and there are even fewer people who can cast Forbidden Spells independently.

For most forbidden spell mages, even if they work together to release a forbidden spell, it can still cost them half their lives!

Even if they were unlucky, it was not impossible that their magic power would be exhausted and they would die on the spot. Therefore, the Forbidden Spell Mage basically existed only as a deterrent.

It is true that human forbidden spell wizards cannot defeat the Demon King, but if the Demon King were to be hit by the forbidden spell, he would definitely not feel good.

Moreover, there are fights among demons. If one is blasted with a forbidden spell by humans and let other demon kings know about it, the principle of taking advantage of one's weakness to kill him is not only understood by humans, but also by demon kings.

Therefore, there is actually a stalemate between humans and demons.

Top-level combat power will not act easily, because once they do, it is equivalent to proactively declaring war!

The emperor does not move and the forbidden spell does not come out. This is the basic consensus among human mages.

Of course, it’s not all about combat power deterrence, but more about human nature.

After all, forbidden spells are also human beings. Just like when a super-class wizard fights a monarch, after the magic energy is exhausted, even a slave-level demon can take their lives, and the same goes for forbidden spells.

Why would a Forbidden Spell Mage, who stands at the pinnacle of humanity, risk his life?
Once entering the battlefield, no one is sure of victory, there are always risks, and the only battlefields worth using forbidden spells are at least monarch-level battlefields. But in places like that, who knows if the emperors behind those monarchs are fishing?

It is not difficult to kill a few monarchs by using forbidden spells, but what if the emperor appears again after the magic power is consumed?

The more powerful you are, the more cautious you are; the more you have, the more afraid you are of losing it.

The Forbidden Spell Wizards have already stood at the pinnacle of humanity. Honor and resources are no longer meaningful to them. In this case, why would they risk losing everything by fighting?
Being able to do it doesn’t mean you will do it, but you should do it. There is no such thing as taking it for granted.

“Then why haven’t I heard of forbidden spells being used?” Mo Fan asked puzzledly.

"There was no action even in the situation in the ancient capital before."

"Because it has no value." Jiang Shaoxu said.

Mo Fan frowned, "What do you mean?"

"Although the words are harsh, they are literally what they mean." Jiang Shaoxu shrugged.

"Given the situation in the ancient capital at the time, even if the forbidden spell was used, by the time we arrived, the ancient capital would most likely have fallen. There was no strategic value in using the forbidden spell."

"Moreover, the forbidden spells that are willing to obey the transfer have their own duties and cannot leave easily. As for those idle forbidden spells, the situation in the ancient capital is very likely to revive the Undead Emperor."

"Well... to put it bluntly, I can't shout."

Most of the Forbidden Spell Wizards only follow orders and not instructions. Don't expect to command the Forbidden Spell Wizards without giving them enough benefits.

Moreover, many people actually have misunderstandings about Forbidden Spell Mages, thinking that they are just like the super-level above the high-level, and are more powerful mages. But in fact, after reaching the Forbidden Spell, Forbidden Spell Mages have an intuitive feeling that they are no longer human!
But a new round of questions arises: why can humans who control such terrifying power still exist?
Her cousin Jiang Shaoli talked to her when he touched the threshold of the forbidden spell. In fact, humans have always been kept under the control of the Demon Empire, and the superficial peace is all false.

The reason why the human race can still exist is largely because a buffer zone is needed between the major demon empires!
The human living area is actually a buffer zone when conflicts occur between demon empires!

Just like Lu Cheng said before, humans are also demons, human-shaped demons, nothing special.

It’s just that humans define other creatures as demons, but in fact, in every demon population, except for their own tribesmen, other creatures are also "demons".

Ocean demons and land demons are mortal enemies, and demon populations in different regions are also enemies. It is just that humans wishfully divide these demons into the same camp.

In fact, it is not. This world is essentially a big chaos.

After all, even humans themselves are not united, so how can we expect different demon tribes to be one family?
In this great battle, humans are always at a disadvantage. In fact, to a certain extent, humans are really being raised by demons.

However, forbidden spells, humans are the buffer zone between the demon empire and they possess the terrifying power to destroy the world. Why would the demon empire allow a weak and dangerous race like humans to exist?
Human beings have been growing stronger almost visibly over the past thousand years, but the Demon Empire's attitude towards humans has always been laissez-faire.

Therefore, most forbidden spell mages have a fear in their hearts, wondering if there is some kind of power that is strong enough to ignore the power of forbidden spells!
Even the forbidden spells that they were so proud of were nothing compared to that power!
It is because of this fear that nine out of ten forbidden spells are useless!
There is another one that is particularly cowardly!
The Forbidden Spell Mage will never take action unless it is absolutely necessary, precisely because of this fear that he is not sure whether it exists or not.

Compared to those legendary emperors who possess intuitive powers, the forbidden spell wizard is more afraid of the power that has never appeared and is not even known to exist.

Just like the more you learn, the more ignorant you feel; the more powerful the mage is, the more insignificant he feels.

The mantis stalks the cicada, but the oriole follows behind!

How do you know that there is no one more powerful than you in the dark?

What if he's killed in seconds as soon as he shows his head?
It took a lot of effort to cultivate to this level. What would it matter if I was killed in an instant?
This is the reason why all the forbidden spell mages are more cowardly than each other.

There is an unknown fear that has been shrouding the forbidden spell!

Although this kind of groundless worrying thought has been gradually fading in the past hundred years, most forbidden spells are still cowardly.
