Chapter 1625 A Treaty Between Humans And Demons
Lin Mu wondered what it meant for a stele that was specifically meant to resist the influence of demonic and other negative beings to have the Shamanic Script of the same demon race on it.
"That does seem strange." Lin Mu could see the contradiction.
"I can try it. Though I don't know how accurate it will be. Shamanic scrips like these often need more context to read accurately as several of the characters can have either the same meanings or multiple meanings." Xukong replied.
He knew that if the owner of the Tyrant Bull Marrow had asked people to appraise the stele, they might also have a way to confirm the information. Thus, they simply needed to tell them what they knew and that'll be the end of it.
It told of a woman that had been betrayed by her clan as well as her kingdom. She was once a human too, but after the betrayal decided to join the opposing side of the Demons. And these were no normal demons, either.
She gave up her humanity and took up the mantel of the Demon Queen. Her power grew greatly and she mounted an offense against those who had betrayed her, which was the human race.
The conflict lasted a long time, after which the human race started to prevail due to their stronger experts. Not wanting to lose, The Demon Queen took a drastic step.
She tricked the Thorn Rage Demons and sacrificed them as well, taking away their power and turning them into undead skeletons!
Her action of sacrificing the Thorn Rage Demons ended up awakening the ancestral spirit of the Demon tribe. The spirit cursed her and sealed her power, allowing the humans to finally defeat her.
The humans retreated but returned some time later. This time they met the surviving tribe of the Demons, warning them of dire actions if they tried to retaliate. The surviving Demon Tribe wasn't that of the Thorn Rage Demons, but of the Ram Horn Demons.
To commemorate that treaty, this stele was carved and kept in the land of the Demons. It would stay standing without being corroded by the energies and still be able to be read by the demonic tribes of the future.
"Just how long ago was this?" Lin Mu wondered.
"Hmm…" After thinking for a bit, Lin Mu wondered if there was another side to it.
"Nothing here." Lin Mu muttered.
"Then can you tell me where this was found?" Lin Mu questioned next. "I'll be easier to know the context more, if I know where this came from." He added.
"I cannot say that. Or rather, I do not know it either. Only my lord knows." The steward replied.
"Yes. I can confirm that it was found in the Rust Sky world." The steward nodded his head with confidence.
Unlike the others, Lin Mu knew some secrets that were erased from the history of the Rust Sky world. He knew this due to the Haima Tribe and the Deep Sapphire City's records.
'We already know that Demons were the natives of the Rust Sky world too. But they were eradicated by the humans a long time ago. This was even before the time of the Haima tribe. And if there were multiple demon tribes, then this must have been even before the Desolate Blood Battlefield became what it is today.' Lin Mu analyzed it all.
"Senior, do you know of these two demonic tribes?" Lin Mu questioned.
Lin Mu had thought that Xukong might not know about the tribes, since there were simply too many of them.
"Then can you tell me more about them?" Lin Mu requested.
