Chapter 1931: 545 Purgatory Snake Demon_2

Her abilities were exceptionally strong.

Additionally, she showed a more-than-common interest in the Magic Guild System.

If it were solely up to Matthew to maintain and upgrade,

it would have taken an indefinite amount of time to achieve the current results.

After all,

necromancers were not known for their technical spells.

While waiting,

Matthew still summoned Lorraine to his side using the Member Summoning Spell.

When the summoning took effect,

the entire shadow node experienced a slight tremor—

This meant that the node had reached its capacity limit for entities.

“So this is how bards gather their information?”

Matthew asked with a chuckle,

“Is photographic skill really that fun?”

Lorraine shrugged,

“Don’t be so serious, Matthew, I know you’re under a lot of pressure and your nerves are tight, so I thought I’d help you relax a bit with this.”

“Besides, this is also a way for me to test the waters.”

Matthew raised an eyebrow,

“Oh?”

Lorraine explained,

“I do have some information I’d like to share with you, but I can’t be sure of your current situation.”

“If I messaged you directly, it might have some negative repercussions.”

“But if I post publicly in the chat and it catches your attention, it indicates that you are also in a relaxed state, and that naturally, we can communicate better, isn’t that right?”

Matthew stroked his chin, entirely unfazed.

But he didn’t really mind either:

“I just wanted to make sure of your status and whether you all were safe or not.”

Lorraine immediately spread his hands wide,

“I’m fine, look, all in one piece.”

“As for that swindler, haha, he ran off who knows where just after we both joined the demons’ army.”

“I’ve always suspected he was up to no good. You should keep an eye on him, Matthew.”

Matthew nodded slightly.

However, he wasn’t too worried; through the Kunlan Blood Book, he could accurately sense Char’s location—

It was near the Shadow Castle.

Although he didn’t know what the doppelganger of Barthor was up to, Matthew was always ready to respond.

“Tell me about the information you found.”

He asked.

Lorraine brought over a chair and leisurely sat down before slowly beginning,

“You’ve probably noticed that the Dark Lord Beckman, in alliance with Galan, Jassiliven, and the Tong Luo Gods behind Evil Queen Babasha,”

“Their aim, in fact, is to replicate the Blood Meteor event!”

Matthew’s eyelid twitched.

He had indeed harbored a similar speculation internally, but still found it somewhat inconceivable upon confirmation.

“With the situation of tearing apart plane, it’s hard to open an interdimensional channel on the moon like the original Blood Meteor event, right?”

Matthew mused.

This wasn’t a matter of motive, but rather one of scale and energy level.

The tear in the plane was too small and had been temporarily created; its core was also notoriously fragile shadow, which might not cause much disturbance even if it directly hit the land of the material world.

It might not even compare to a stronger meteor shower.

And to open an interdimensional portal between Aindor and the Tong Luo World,

the required energy far exceeded what this level of impact could provide.

That’s why Matthew felt puzzled.

Lorraine shook his head and said,

“The aim of replicating the Blood Meteor event need not be an exact copy of what happened.”

“According to the information I’ve gathered,” tearing apart the plane was merely a prelude, their goal here is to establish a super-gigantic coordinate and traction system to then summon the true enormities of the astral world, potentially causing destruction more than three times that of the Blood Meteor impact!”

“For this reason, they have abandoned their plans elsewhere, such as in Escana and Snake City.”

“I haven’t found out more details, but I do know that Beckman was quite confident in this deception, originally planning to use the news of his own burial as a cantrip to buy time while negotiating slowly with the Phantom Baron.”

“However, Glacia and the Duke of Steel still received the message in time, elevating the war to a whole new level, likely involving the Blood River Will, especially since this time the Tong Luo Gods chose to jump to the material world near purgatory, undoubtedly posing the greatest threat to the Blood River Will.”

Matthew nodded.

Lorraine continued:

“As for the King of Air Element, that was purely an accident.”

“The increasingly irascible Air Element race, coupled with a belligerent king, make it unsurprising they would choose to invade any plane.”

“However, the cooperation between the Air Element and demons doesn’t seem as solid as it appears, at least in my view, this war seems somewhat senseless to the Air Element—”

“What I mean is, they originally only intended to raid Beckman’s tomb in a reckless manner, but now they see the intensity of the battle escalating endlessly, which actually contradicts their understanding.”

“The reason they haven’t retreated is probably just out of inertia and because Beckman has yet to deploy a stronger military force.”

“Or maybe, once Beckman can offer something enticing enough to the Air Element, it wouldn’t be difficult for this race of elemental creatures to turn around and withdraw.”

“In summary, the Air Element is the second biggest wildcard in this suddenly escalated war.”

Matthew asked:

“And the biggest one?”

Lorraine smiled:

“Of course, the biggest wildcard is us.”

“Never underestimate yourself, you are now a significant figure, Mr. Destroyer.”

“I think no side of the factions wants to see a Death Curtain suddenly appear above their soldiers’ heads…”

Matthew shrugged:

“You’re not wrong.”

“This place is quite suited for unleashing the Undead Calamity.”

Then, he shifted his tone and seriously summarized:

“So, the current situation is that if Beckman wants to execute his plan, he must defend the gates of Shadow Castle. If the purgatory side breaches, the plan of the Tong Luo Gods will be ruined.”

“For Glacia, causing Beckman’s plan to fail represents not only recognition and a blessing from the Blood River Will but also probably the most crucial opportunity for her promotion to Lord of the Nine Hells, and it will provide her with more leverage in the upcoming Battle of Storluk two months later.”

“Air Element and us, perhaps along with some other bystanders, will become the random factors.”

“Based on the current evaluation of powers, without outside interference, Beckman’s defeat will come swiftly.”

“I just observed that the Shadow Demons have already started to act collectively, destroying the shadow nodes one by one. After that, the Shadow Army will lose the cover of space, and even though they might not crumble instantly, it will be difficult for them to withstand the direct advance of demons.”

“But Beckman undoubtedly still has an ace up his sleeve, though we don’t know what that is yet…”

Matthew hadn’t finished speaking.

Suddenly, a flood of messages surged in from the Kunlan Blood Contract.

Matthew’s gaze stiffened, and after quickly digesting the information, his expression regained liveliness.

He couldn’t help but mutter:

“So that’s how it is.”

“One of Beckman’s backups is a large group of Purgatory Snake Demons about to jump over from the Far East…”

“During the era of Barthor, they were an exceptionally powerful race of devils active in Barthor Purgatory, but following Barthor’s death, they were exiled by Glacia.”

“Carrying a grudge against Glacia, it makes sense for these Snake Demons to participate in the war, but how effective can they be?”

Lorraine shook his head, indicating uncertainty.

Camela, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke up:

“Snake Demons are not easy to deal with.”

“As far as I know, the Snake Demons from the Far East not only are immune to curses, but they also carry a group curse effect inherently.”

“Wherever Snake Demons pass, almost no life remains, because the curse they carry indiscriminately attacks all life forms except for Snake Demons themselves.”

Matthew nodded:

“Apart from the Snake Demons, Beckman must have other preparations.”

“It would be helpful if we could figure out what they are one by one.”

“However, our primary target remains Glacia…”

At this point,

Matthew decided to summon the three legendary thieves to the torn plane!

“It’s time to test Glacia and her guards’ mettle…”
