Necromancer Of The Shadows

Chapter 77 Frost World Dungeon (Part 2)



Upon entering the portal Evan felt his surroundings blur a little. The next second intense white light shined in front of him.

Because of the intense light, Evan was forced to close his eyes.

When Evan closed his eyes he felt a cold wind blow past him sending a shiver all over his body.

Evan opened his eyes and saw a white world in front of him.

"Am I in Antarctica?" Evan mumbled seeing ice all over in front of him

"What is Antarctica?" Evan heard Valery's voice and saw her standing right beside him.

"Nothing, so what do we have to do to clear this floor? I can't see anything but ice here" Evan asked Valery after he didn't see anything other than ice.

"Can you see that ice structure over there?" Valery pointed in front of them and asked Evan.

Evan looked in front of him, and after focusing, he saw an ice structure that was resembling a pyramid.

"Do we need to reach there in order to clear this floor?" Evan asked after seeing the pyramid.

"Yes"

"This doesn't seems hard though" Evan muttered after hearing confirmation from Valery.

According to Evan, the pyramid was around ten kilometers away from them. There might be some difference because everything there was white, and it is much harder to accurately guess the distance in that kind of environment.

"We will have to face many monsters on the way, but you are right it won't be much difficult since it is just the first floor. There are ten floors in this dungeon and it will become much harder when we will reach higher floors".

"By the way, I forget to tell you one thing" Just as Evan was ready to march forward he heard Valery and looked at her with a frown on his face.

"What is it?"

"Don't look at me like that, I just forget to tell you since we can get the ice heart flower after clearing the dungeon, and this flower is not a regular reward, the difficulty of the dungeon will be at an all-time high. We will have to face more monsters that people have to usually face while clearing the dungeon".

"If it is just that then it is fine," the frown on Evan's face disappeared after hearing Valery and he said causally.

"It is fine?" Valery asked in a dazed voice, "how is it fine?"

Evan didn't reply to her and started to walk towards the pyramid.

Why would he complain if there are more monsters? For Evan, the more the better.

He needs many C rank cores in order to evolve his monarch core to C rank. And this is the perfect opportunity for him to farm cores.

This is a C+ rank dungeon with ten floors.

According to what he knew they will face C rank monsters from the first floor to the fourth floor.

On the fifth floor, they will face a C+ rank monster, but this monster will be much stronger than normal C+ rank monsters since it will be the boss monster of the dungeon.

Then from the sixth floor to the ninth floor, they will face C+ rank monsters.

And on the tenth floor, they will face the second boss monster of the dungeon. This monster will also be a C+ rank monster but it will be more powerful than C+ rank monsters.

Evan was quite excited because he will be able to collect some C+ rank cores from floor sixth to ninth.

If he uses C+ rank cores it will take even fewer cores for him to evolve his monarch core.

Previously Evan made a mistake when he compared the energy requirement for his monarch core evolution.

He thought normal people need around fifty C rank cores to evolve their D rank prime to C rank.

And since he need around one hundred cores he thought his monarch core needs two times more energy to evolve.

But he completely forget other people can't absorb 100% energy from the cores like him. They can only absorb around 30% energy from a core, or a maximum of fifty percent if they have a skill related to the core type.

Normal people can advance their prime core from D rank to C rank after using around fifty C rank cores, even though they can only absorb 30% of energy from it. But he who can absorb 100% energy needs more than one hundred cores to advance to C rank.

When Evan realized this fact later he got goosebumps just thinking about it.

'But the power monarch core is giving me is worth that much energy' Evan thought and focused on the dungeon.

It was hard to walk on ice so Evan and Valery used mana reinforcement around their feet to not get hindered by the ice.

Just after five minutes of walking both Evan and Valery felt something and stopped walking.

Grrrrr* Grrrrrr*

Suddenly they saw two white figures coming towards them.

"Ice leopards" Valery muttered when she saw two meters long and three meters high white leopards with deep yellow eyes coming towards them.

"Be careful while fighting against ice leopards, although they are just C rank monsters their agility is quite high" Valery said to Evan.

"By the way, I forget to ask you something" Evan ignored what Valery said and spoke.

"What?"

"How will we divide the cores that we will get?" Evan asked in a serious voice.

Valery's mouth twitched when she heard Evan's serious voice but she still said,

"You can keep all the cores from the monsters you will kill yourself. And since I will be taking Ice heart flower after we clear the dungeon I will give you 50% cores that I will gather here"

"Is this fine with you?"

Evan's lips curled upward when he heard Valery and he nodded his head.

"Let's quickly take care of them so we can clear this floor," Valery said and was about to charge forward when she felt something and stopped.

When those ice leopards were just twenty meters away from them, two black bullets shot out from their own shadows and penetrated their chest destroying their heart instantly.

Valery looked with a shocked face as bodies of the both ice leopards dropped to the ice lifelessly.

'What the hell was that?' even though she saw with her own eyes Valery wasn't able to understand what was happening.

"I hope I will find a core" Valery came out from her shock when she heard Evan mumbling and looked at him with a dazed look.
