Chapter 1936: 548 Flesh Curse
…
Matthew was imdiately spirited.
Compared to the previous trivial content, this was the key intelligence he wanted to hear!
Rheager was sealed within the Soul Copper Coin, and besides the necessary confinent asures, Glacia wouldn’t be guarding him too strictly—
because there was no need.
This resulted in there being a real possibility of him hearing so crucial information.
Unfortunately, due to the lack of spirituality and the weakened soul,
the amount of intelligence he could gather was extrely limited; he was already lucky to have heard this much.
Thereupon, Matthew comforted Rheager and, urged on by Bubu, he severed the connection.
Then he proceeded to analyze these three pieces of news one by one—
First was the red silk fabric.
Matthew closed his eyes to recall, and with his strong ntal power, he successfully retrieved the image of Glacia he had seen before.
In his recollection,
intertwined among the soul copper coins hanging by her waist was indeed so red silk fabric.
It seed to be made from loops of red thread entwining each other.
It looked rely like an ornant.
Right away, Matthew relayed the content of his mory and Rheager’s information to Mrs. Wolf.
Fortunately,
Mrs. Wolf’s knowledge about the Eastern Continent proved useful.
“This is a ‘Separator’, it ans to separate yin and yang in the ancient Su alchemy system—aning to separate life and death.”
“A Separator is not only an ornant but also a miniature barrier, or rather, a product of enchantnt.
It has a very strong suppression effect on all soul bodies, including Nature Soul, and combined with the effects of the Soul Copper Coin, this can cause many subtle chain reactions.”
“For example, if soone were to forcefully take away a copper coin strung on that cord without dismantling the Separator, then the power stored in the Separator might explode the corresponding coin, and erase the soul inside completely!”
Mrs. Wolf explained clearly.
Yet, Matthew couldn’t help feeling a surge of fear—
According to his plan,
he wanted to steal all the Soul Copper Coins if possible.
But if the plan didn’t go smoothly,
stealing only Rheager’s soul was also an alternative.
If he hadn’t noticed the existence of the Separator, doing so might have completely destroyed Rheager’s life!
Glacia was indeed wicked at heart!
“Then how do we dismantle the Separator?”
Matthew asked gravely.
Mrs. Wolf said,
“That’s simple, the Separator only has strong suppressive power against soul bodies, for any being with a physical body, it’s just a purely handmade craft.”
“To light it up or tear it apart would both deactivate the Separator.”
Matthew nodded.
He then asked quite a few questions about the potential risks of the Soul Copper Coins.
Mrs. Wolf answered them all.
Besides his gratitude, Matthew felt much more relieved.
Having solved the mystery of the red thread,
Matthew then figured out the anings behind the nas Calimto and Anderson.
The forr was once the lord of the well-known Bronze Dragon Hills in the Northland, reverently called the ‘Dragon of Justice’, always liaising in fairness.
Not too long ago, Matthew had visited the Bronze Dragon Hills, expressing regret that the whereabouts of the Bronze Dragon were unknown.
Little did he expect that it had been captured by Glacia, with even its soul sealed inside a copper coin.
If everything went smoothly,
Matthew certainly hoped to rescue Calimto’s soul as well.
As for Anderson,
Matthew was no stranger—
This man, known as the Desecration Mage, was one of Glacia’s strongest Legendary Spell Casters, and Matthew had always been wary of his spells.
Prior investigations by Saphroloa revealed that the Desecration Mage Anderson would be stationed at the Holy City of Barthor Tears, thus he would not be around Glacia.
The Anderson appearing in Barthor Tears now was rely a decoy.
His real body was probably hidden right beside Glacia!
“If there’s a Legendary Spell Caster lurking in the shadows, things won’t be so easy.”
Matthew stroked his chin.
The news about Anderson was the most critical piece of intelligence, hardly matched by any other.
Although Matthew had prepared many strategies as part of his plan for his arrival,
being able to verify his location in advance could greatly increase the success rate of the operation.
“Let’s see where exactly you’re hiding…”
A cold smile crossed Matthew’s mind.
The next second,
he took out the Fla Book from his bag and sent a ssage that he had previously prepared to the Abyssal Lord Bu Ye—
“Confird, Desecration Mage Anderson is not stationed at Barthor Tears, I can assure you that Glacia won’t be able to return short term. Your Excellency might try to attack any of Glacia’s territories other than the Infinite Secret Cave, I believe there will be surprises…”
Matthew and Bu Ye had long made this arrangent.
Though both harbored their own motives, when it ca to combating devils, the Demon Lord was undoubtedly the most enthusiastic.
This wasn’t just due to the mutual hostility between demons and devils,
but also stemd from the irreconcilable opposition between the main body of the Abyss and the Blood River Will.
Just as devils hunting demons would receive rewards from the Blood River Will,
Abyss invasions into purgatory would similarly receive highly valued rewards from the Mother.
Matthew hadn’t expected the seemingly unsophisticated but actually ticulous Bu Ye to tug much surprise from Glacia;
he just wanted to use it to locate Anderson.
But who would have thought that within five minutes of sending the ssage,
Matthew received this ssage!
…
“World-level affair (private channel): Your ally, Slaughter Demon Lord Bu Ye, leads the Abyss Army with the Abyss Divine Artifact ‘Abyss Mother’s Touch Branch’ as a dium, successfully breached the barrier between the Abyss and Purgatory, then opened a rift leading to Barthor Purgatory.
