Chapter 538: The Third Mystery Lock
Translator: Lonelytree
“The Kingdom of Suki established by the siblings immediately attracted tieflings from other parts of the Multiverse to join.
“During the heyday of the Kingdom of Suki.
“They could even fight against the strongest level of the Nine Hells! “Unfortunately, tieflings did not inherit the long lifespan of demons.
“Therefore, today, more than a thousand years later.
“The rule of the Kingdom of Suki in Escana was not as strong as it was at the beginning.
“After experiencing a few stormy events.
“It’s not too much to describe the current Suki Kingdom as having internal and external problems.”
Matthew felt that something was wrong as he listened.
“Wait, a thousand years later?
“The blood of Barthor ended up in purgatory after the ascension of the Heavenly Palace, right?
“It has only been a few hundred years since the ascension of the Heavenly
Palace…
Margaret patiently explained,
“That’s because of the fission period.
“Do you still remember what I said before? After Barthor was sealed, Purgatory experienced a long period of expansion.
“At that stage, the time flow in Purgatory was greatly accelerated.
“In the prime material plane, only a few hundred years had passed since the ascension of the Heavenly Palace.
“However, to the Purgatory, more than a thousand years had passed.
“Fifty years ago.
“The fission period ended.
“Only then did the time flow in Purgatory match that of the prime material plane.
“It was also from that period that the devils once again focused their malicious gazes on the Aindor Continent.
” Time is actually a very subtle concept. It’s not as stable as you think.”
“For example, in our impression, the ascension of the Heavenly Palace happened hundreds of years ago, but can you be sure that it was hundreds of years ago?”
Matthew was stunned.
That’s right!
Was it hundreds of years ago?
Why wasn’t there a clear detail?
He had almost never considered this problem before.
It was as if his understanding of this aspect had been completely blocked.
Margaret smiled.
” You’re not the only one who’s confused. In fact, no one knows the exact time when the ascension of the Heavenly Palace took place, including Holy Mages like Soria and Isabelle.
” This is because the ascension of the Heavenly Palace has had a far-reaching impact. The Calamity Mage released too much energy in the event of banishing the gods. This energy distorted the time domain and blurred the era.
” To this day, the mages of the Alliance have used various methods to estimate the time when the Heavenly Palace rose to the top to be between 200 and 400 years ago. This is already a very remarkable progress.
” According to my teacher’s speculation, if we want to know the exact time of this historical event, I’m afraid we have to have the same level of power as the Calamity Mage.
“This is obviously very difficult to do.
‘ So, we just need to have this concept in our hearts.
‘ Correspondingly, the same principle applies to the three enigmatic locks that the gods imposed on the Aindor Continent.
” We only need to know its concept and existence. There’s no need to study its contents in detail.”
Matthew’s heart skipped a beat.
“Right, I only know two of the three mysteries.
“One is the puzzle lock, which blocks the knowledge and history of the gods.
“One was the Civilization Mystery Lock, which locked down the development of civilization in the world of Aindor.
“What’s the third one?”
Margaret was stunned.
“You haven’t even figured out all the three mystery locks?” Matthew scratched his head in embarrassment.
” This is how we country mages are.” Margaret furrowed her brows in worry.
“I’m worried about you going to Purgatory like this.
“You have to grasp the basics!
” As for the third Mystery Lock, it’s the ‘Chaos Mystery Lock’!”
