Chapter 536: The Third Mystery Lock

Matthew obviously couldn’t learn this.
In theory, necromancers seemed to be the best job class to trigger traps with their bodies.
However, the actual operation was not that simple.
Whether it was skeletons or zombies, their lives were too fragile. A low-level undead could only trigger one trap at most.
As for areas like the Spider Tunnel, where traps were concentrated, it would take a lot of effort to use summons to explore them one by one.
As for the high-level undead, the average necromancer would not bear to let them use their bodies to withstand the damage of the trap.
Therefore, Margaret’s elimination method was not suitable for Matthew at this stage.
If he had the time, he might as well recruit a rogue who was proficient in dismantling traps.
This way, the cost would be lower.
However, to Margaret, the power of 4.6 million gold coins allowed her to completely ignore any traps below Legend rank.
Immediately.
Margaret took the lead.
Matthew followed from afar.
After passing through the area where the traps were triggered, he followed Margaret’s footsteps again.
The path in the Spider Tunnel was not difficult to walk on.
The two of them walked side by side.
Time passed by.
As the journey was too boring, the two of them unknowingly started chatting.
Matthew asked Margaret how much she knew about the Suki Kingdom. The latter immediately spoke with assurance,
” The history of the Kingdom of Suki is recorded in great detail within the Alliance. There is even a small section in the library that is dedicated to storing books related to the Kingdom of Blood Flag.
“The earliest founder of this country could be traced back to a man named Mophisto.
“He was a high-level demon from the third level of Purgatory, the Seamless Secret Cave. He was the lover and guard of the Demoness of Desire, Glasia.
“After the ascension of the Heavenly Palace, the Calamity Mage visited Purgatory once, and she had beaten up the Master of the Nine Hells at that time, Barthor, to the bottom of the Bridge of All Life on the ninth level of Purgatory, sealing him together with the Abominations.
“Barthor’s half-fall triggered the distortion and fission of the purgatory plane.
“Hundreds of years later.
“Every layer of the purgatory was very unstable. There were many folds between the layers, and these folds caused the relatively unified Nine Hells to develop into many branch planes like the Endless Abyss.
“After the initial incubation period, these branch planes quickly entered the ” fission period,” which was the period of rapid expansion and extension. “The Escana between the planes we are currently in was formed during this stage.
“It was a sub-material realm formed after the folds of the Nine Hells fused with a certain layer of the Endless Abyss.
“At the beginning of the fission of the Purgatory.
“After witnessing the ascension of the Heavenly Palace and the sealing of Barthor, the high-level demon, Mophisto, was born with great ambition.
“He tried to convince the Queen of Desire, Glasia, to bestow him with an army of demons through pillow talk.
“Mophisto told Glasia that he would lead this army to the new plane and defeat all enemies. He would also find the three drops of Blood of Barthor that Barthor, the Lord of Nine Hells, had lost in Purgatory when he was injured by the Calamity Mage.
“One had to know.
“The Demoness of Desire, Glasia, was Barthor’s biological daughter. With these three drops of Barthor’s blood, she would have a chance to become the new Lord of the Nine Hells.
“In addition, she trusted her lover very much, so she agreed to Mophisto’s request.
“Just like that, Mophisto led the demon army to the newborn Escana, which was the land under our feet.
“In the beginning, Mophisto had indeed done his best to help Glasia conquer the world.
“He had fought fiercely with the demon army from the abyss for decades, and the number of demons who had died by his hands was more than ten million.
“However, there was no end to killing demons.
“Not only that but under the leadership of a Greater Demon Lord called Bru, the demons actually united and resisted the invasion of the demon army together. “As a result, the Purgatory forces’ battle in Escana became very tense.
“He had no choice.
“Mophisto had to compromise. He reached an agreement with the Purgatory Humans who had wandered over from who knew where.
“The two sides would not invade each other and help each other for the next thousand years.
“In the end, the day after the agreement was signed.
“The leader of the Purgatory Humans, the woman whose name had not been recorded in history, showed the blood of Barthor that she had obtained in front of Mophisto.
“It turned out that the leader of the Purgatory’s Human Race had obtained a drop of the Blood of Barthor that Monphisto had painstakingly searched for for more than ten years.
“Of course, Mophisto coveted the Blood of Barthor.
“However, both parties had just signed a contract.
“And it was the most serious kind of contract for demons. He couldn’t force them to hand over Barthor’s blood.
“It wasn’t just him who couldn’t do anything about it. Even the other abominations of the Purgatory serving under him couldn’t violate the alliance with the Purgatory Humans.
“After thinking hard and failing to find a solution, he reported the matter to the Queen of Desires.
“The answer that the Queen of Desire, Glasia, gave him was:
“Seduction.
“Glasia persuaded Mophisto to charm and coax the human leader into submission and make her willingly hand over Barthor’s blood.
“At first, Mophisto was a little resistant to the idea.
“However, under Glasia’s repeated persuasion, he still agreed.
“Mophisto had made a hundred preparations in advance, planning to seduce the human leader.
“In the end, both sides hit it off.
“In the spring of the second year, the human leader gave birth to a pair of
twins..”
