President Xuan Wu was astounded.
He never thought Dean Xiao would say something like that. Most importantly, he could use his status as the president to ask Mo Fan to cooperate with the Forbidden Magic Association unconditionally, but did he have the authority to order Dean Xiao to do so?
In terms of strength, Xuan Wu was stronger than Dean Xiao, but a Water Magician had the ability to nullify and suppress the sea monsters. The sea monsters were no different from the demon creatures on land when facing a Water Magician.
However, the difference was extremely important in the battle against the sea monsters.
"Dean Xiao, you have to reconsider. Their plan with the Sacred Totem Beasts is only a guess. The most important thing now is to fill the gap in the sky above the Magic City and deal with the Heavenly Demon Tide that is coming. The Forbidden Curse Association can swear with our souls that it's all because of this demon creature. If we can defeat it, the situation in the Magic City will be alleviated!" Xuan Wu said sincerely.
The other Forbidden Curse Mages continued to fight against the demon creature. Their situation was not looking good, either. Leaving aside the problem of the Sky-Toppling Wave, the pressure on the Forbidden Curse Association would be significantly reduced with Dean Xiao's Water Magic around.
Therefore, it did not matter if Dean Xiao was able to nullify the Sky-Toppling Wave, they could not let him leave!
"We know nothing about the creature, either. Even if we nullify its Sky-Toppling Wave, do you think we can defeat it? It's standing here fearlessly. How can we guarantee that the creature that emerges after we nullify the Sky-Toppling Wave is a scarier sea monster?" Dean Xiao asked in return.
Since everything was unknown and uncertain, it was impossible to make a perfect choice.
Just because it was the decision of the Forbidden Spell Association, it did not mean that it was closer to the truth. However, Dean Xiao knew very well that the Totem had once banished the Oceanic Gods. If they could awaken them, it would also be possible to change the current crisis in Shanghai!
There was no difference between being rational and being foolish. As a Magician, Dean Xiao believed the Sacred Totem Beasts were more important in a desperate situation, that was all.
"Dean Xiao!" Xuan Wu's tone became heavier. His face darkened. "This is related to the survival of the Magic City. Your choice is extremely important. If you choose to side with the Forbidden Curse Association, we will stand firmly on your side regardless of the outcome. However, if the Magic City Base City is destroyed because of this, you and your student will have to bear the blame for eternity. I'm asking you to think twice! "
"President Hong, the destruction of the Magic City is the fault of all Magicians. Our negligence, our ease, and our lack of improvement have led to the failure of the Magic City Base City. However, if you still think that it's my student and is is responsible for the destruction of the Magic City Base City, I have nothing to say................. a....... is.... is............ a............ there.. Dean........ that................
...... Dean Xiao, I'm looking forward to your Saint Totem. I'm waiting for your Saint Totem here. I'm waiting for your Saint Totem with the millions of people in Shanghai, with the billions of corpses in Shanghai, and with the surging ocean dyed red by the blood of all humans! "Dark Noon said coldly.
..................
From his bloodshot eyes, one could see the anger and despair in his heart.
He cared about the whole of Shanghai.
How could Dean Xiao not care about Shanghai?
In the homes of so many people, the families who were hugging each other and crying silently in their broken houses were waiting for the sorcerers whom they respected to eliminate the wandering sea demons and resolve the black alert of extinction.
But often, when two people with a common goal had a major disagreement, they would become even colder than enemies.
How could Dean Xiao not see the pain and struggle in Midsummer's heart? However, even Dean Xiao himself could not prove that his words were correct.
In the face of the unknown, who could know the outcome?
Dean Xiao was just following his own heart and nothing else.
"Shao Li, send them away." There was no longer any expression on Zong Wu's face, nor was there any emotion in his words.
Dean Xiao bowed and turned to leave.
Regardless of the outcome, Zhuang Wu's magnanimity at the edge of despair was worthy of Dean Xiao's salute.
However, in Xiao Wu's heart, this Dean Xiao was insignificant.
…
…
Riding on the Poseidon, the group left Shanghai.
Shanghai gradually shrank into the horizon behind them. The few of them could leave Shanghai, but how many people in the city had the same cultivation as them? Even if there were people who surpassed them, would they leave?
This was also their home. Everyone was fighting for their own world against the sea demons. Even if there was a difference in strength, even if they were outnumbered …
The Poseidon flapped its wings and increased its speed to an extreme.
Shanghai finally disappeared into the horizon. However, Dean Xiao, Zhao Manyan, Mubai, Jiang Shaoxu, Song Feiyao, Eagle-Winged Shao Li, and Teacher Bai Mei felt their hearts grow heavier.
For some reason, they felt at ease in Shanghai. Leaving Shanghai made them feel like their hearts were being stabbed. Even though they did not escape, they felt so guilty that it made it difficult for them to breathe.
What could they do to save the Magic City from the fire and water?
The evil and cruel sea monsters did not slaughter the humans at first. Instead, they chose to destroy the human Mage system. It meant that the failure was not the end. It was very likely that the failure was the beginning of the real nightmare. Would the people who had no ability to resist be tortured and humiliated by the sea monsters in the cities be subjected to such torture?
"Can we really change the situation?" Teacher Bai Mei asked in a daze.
No one could answer him.
"At least we are not placing all our hopes on the Forbidden Spell Society that is stronger than us. We are only doing what we think is right, "Dean Xiao said.
"Can the Sacred Totem Beasts really save us? Aren't we placing our hopes on other forces too?" Eagle-Winged Shao Li said.
It was meaningless to argue any further under the circumstances. Eagle-Winged Shao Li also mentioned something important.
"We are too weak. Under the cruel rules of survival, we are only food for other species. Magic can never stop improving, "Dean Xiao said.
"I now understand why Mofan is willing to risk everything to kill the Asian Magic Association and Su Lu," Mubai suddenly said.
Dean Xiao nodded. He knew what Mubai was referring to.
Many people would think that Mo Fan was impulsive, like a reckless man who did not know how to hold himself back.
However, was what Mo Fan saw the same thing as what the others saw?
If no one stood up for something, it meant they would never be able to stand up for it …
He was not losing his temper, but he was more concerned about the rules of the world.
