Necromancer Of The Shadows

786 Inside The Tomb (Part 1)

In a place shrouded in black fog, a golden altar nearly one hundred meters in diameter was located.

Amid the dark fog, the only source of light was the occasional rays of golden light emitted by the altar from time to time.

The altar was filled with complex-looking Runes, and something was plunged into the middle of it. The darkness in the middle of the altar was so thick that whatever was plunged there couldn't be seen.

Although no one could see what was in the middle of the altar, just by looking there, people would feel a deep sense of fear, as if something capable of destroying everything was sleeping there.

Rumble!

Suddenly, the darkness covering the altar became restless, and the entire area started to shake.

All the ancient runes inscribed on the golden altar lit up with bright light and tried to contain the restless darkness.

Brzzz!

At this moment, the thing plunged in the middle of the altar suddenly emitted an odd sound, and the darkness in the area increased to a completely different level.

To prevent the darkness from spreading outward, the golden altar flashed with an even brighter light.

After a few minutes of restlessness, the darkness around the altar finally calmed down, and the thing plunged in the middle also stopped making odd sounds.

The golden altar also stopped flashing with golden light, and all the runes inscribed on it returned to normal.

Although the altar appeared normal and nothing seemed out of place, upon closer inspection, one would notice that the ancient runes engraved on it were blurrier than before.

The sun was shining high in the sky, and clouds were slowly moving along with a light wind.

In a certain area of the Tomb Of The Ancient, a silver light flashed, and Evan appeared there. Upon entering the Tomb, he immediately used the invisibility effect of the Shadow Walk skill and hid himself.

After making himself invisible, Evan looked around and inspected his surroundings.

Upon looking around, he found himself standing on plain ground without any trees in sight. The ground was filled with dry, light yellow grass and small stones.

At the horizon of the plain ground, he saw some giant mountains that were covered in mist due to the large distance between them.

Using his spiritual senses, Evan confirmed that there was no danger around him. Only after confirming that there was no danger around him, did he stop using the Shadow Walk skill and became visible.

"It doesn't look like a place where someone killed tens of rank five and rank six core evolvers..." Evan muttered to himself, recalling the things that Cedar had told him about the Tomb Of The Ancient.

He walked on the plain ground for a few minutes and stopped in the shade of a giant boulder.

"Now I need to do two things before moving forward..." Evan said and looked at his shadow.

"Team Black..." He called out lightly, and a group of around three hundred shadow undeads emerged from his shadow storage.

In front of the group stood, Volac, Eclipse, and Kazil.

In Team Black, Evan assembled all of his shadow undeads who were skilled in stealth and hiding. In other words, they were all specialized in assassination and collecting information.

The leader of Team Black was Volac, while the vice leaders were Eclipse and Kazil.

After summoning Team Black, Evan ordered Volac to collect information about the Tomb Of The Ancient and simultaneously create a map so that he could move freely.

Receiving Evan's order, Volac divided Team Black into different groups and sent all of them in different directions to collect information and create a map of the Tomb.

To work more precisely, Volac asked the shadow undeads of the Sonic Bats to cast the sound transmission skill on the members of Team Black.

Through the sound transmission skill, all the members of Team Black could communicate with each other as long as they were not very far away from each other.

Because of this skill, it became very easy for Team Black to create the map of the Tomb.

Volac stayed behind with Evan and using the information that the members of team black were sending him through sound transmission, he started to create the map of the tomb. He ordered the members of Team Black to first focus on creating the map of the plain ground and then move forward.

While Team Black was collecting information and creating a map, Evan summoned another team of shadow undeads.

There were around one thousand shadow undeads in this group, and the name of the group was Team Red.

Different from Team Black, who specialized in sneak attacks, the shadow undeads of Team Red were frontline fighters with overwhelming destructive powers.

The leader of Team Red was Adam, while the vice leaders were Albelu, Gobu, and Brown (the new name of the Bullbear).

After summoning Team Red, Evan ordered them to hunt down some Rank One Monsters and bring their bodies to him.

Receiving Evan's order, Team Red immediately left to hunt down the Rank One monsters.

"I can move with ease once they hunt down the Rank One monsters and I successfully create some high-level Soul Beacons using their souls..." Evan muttered to himself as he watched Team Red disappear from his sight.

Once Team Red disappeared from his sight, Evan released a few more shadow undeads and ordered them to guard his surroundings. After instructing the shadow undeads to secure his perimeter, Evan closed his eyes and focused on absorbing the world essence from the surroundings to increase the rank of his core.

The density of the World Essence in the Tomb was even higher than in the closed world, making it an ideal place for him to focus on absorbing the world essence while his shadow undeads completed the tasks he had assigned them.

As time passed, Volac focused on creating an accurate map of the plain ground.

From time to time, members of Team Red brought the dead bodies of Rank One monsters for Evan, who absorbed their souls using the Soul Absorption skill.

The plain ground was quite large, so even with the help of more than three hundred shadow undeads, it took Volac nearly fifteen hours to complete the map.

Once the map of the plain ground was completed, Volac stood up and approached Evan.

Sensing Volac's presence, Evan ceased absorbing the world essence and finally decided to move.
