Necromancer Of The Shadows

By using the second effect of the Growth Link skill, Evan could take three skills of his shadow undeads.

During the fight in Silverwind Town, Evan had taken Gravity Manipulation and Crimson Veil skills of his shadow undeads by using the second effect of the Growth Link skill.

Just before the small orb that Nate threw towards Evan exploded, he used the second effect of the growth link skill once again and took Astronox Unique Skill, Titanic Resilience.

---) Titanic Resilience (Unique Skill): When activated, you gain temporary invulnerability to all incoming damage, allowing you to easily ignore all attacks. However, you cannot attack or use other skills during this state. The invulnerability status will last for ten seconds and can only be used once every three hours.

Although Evan had fused himself with Nekros whose defence was very high among his shadow undeads and even used Titanic Resilience skill that gave him temporary invulnerability against all attacks, he still felt a sharp pain all over his body the moment the orb thrown by Nate exploded.

The army of four million monsters which was stationed around one hundred kilometres away from the location of the explosion looked in the direction of the explosion and saw the sky had turned crimson red and a mass of red fire was rapidly expanding in all directions and covered an area of around fifty kilometres in an instant.

Although the monster army was nearly a hundred kilometres away from the explosion site, they all felt a chill running down their spines as they could all feel the terrifying power hidden inside the deep red fire.

All the shadow undeads and skeletons were swallowed by the red fire and disappeared without being able to resist even for a single second.

Asher and Evan were also caught in the explosion and their fates were unknown.

The mass of the red fire did not stop after covering an area of fifty kilometres and continued to expand outwards. When the monsters saw the red fire moving in their direction, all of them retreated from their position.

Thirty minutes after the explosion, around fifteen kilometres away from the location where the orb exploded, inside a crater that was nearly fifty meters in diameter and ten metres deep, Evan slowly opened his eyes.

"Uhhh," The moment he opened his eyes, he felt as if he was being cooked alive and millions of ants were tearing apart his flesh. Moreover, even after opening his eyes, Evan was not able to see anything.

He tried to open his mouth to say something but no sound came out of his mouth. He could not feel his hands or feet and even his conscience was quite blurry. The aura around his body was incredibly weak and his vitality was continuously dropping.

When he wasn't able to see the condition of his body through his eyes, Evan used his spiritual senses to inspect his body... And the moment he looked at the condition of his body, his aura which was already very weak dropped even further.

Both of his hands and left leg were missing, his eyes were destroyed and he was looking like a person who could die at any second.

'Holy Sister' Evan was scared shi*less seeing the condition of his body and immediately used the Death Transfer Skill.

But when he used his death transfer skill, he realized all of his shadow undeads were destroyed so he couldn't use his skill before summoning back one of his shadow undeads.

Without wasting any time, he immediately summoned back the shadow undead of an orc and used the Death Transfer skill again.

Just as Evan used the Death Transfer skill, the orc he had summoned turned into a puff of black smoke and disappeared. The shadow undead of the orc wasn't even able to last for one second after Evan transferred his injuries to it.

Evan couldn't help but gulp down his saliva when he saw how the shadow undead of the orc was destroyed after he transferred his injuries.

'If I hadn't used shadow possession and titanic resilience skill on time, I might have died the moment that orb exploded' Evan thought inwardly and stood up.

"Just what the hell was that red orb? Even though I used titanic resilience skill that gives its user temporary invulnerability for ten seconds, I was still nearly killed." Evan said to himself and used shadow wings.

When Evan came high into the sky using shadow wings and looked at the state of the surrounding area, he couldn't help but suck a breath of cold air.

The entire area within more than fifty kilometres of the range was completely devastated. The ground turned into hell and the red fire that came out from the orb was burning everywhere.

'Why does this red fire seem so different from the normal fire' Evan thought inwardly and used his spiritual senses to scan the fire.

"Damn," But just as Evan's spiritual sense touched the red fire, it was burned by the fire and Evan's soul was once again injured lightly.

"What the fu*k, this fire actually has traces of the conceptual energy," Evan muttered in a shocked voice after stabilizing his soul. "Just by feeling the power fluctuations coming from this fire, I can tell that this fire is even stronger than the fire of that Flame Demon (Asher)."

"How did that guy get hold of such a thing?" Evan muttered to himself with a serious look on his face.

"Oh right," Suddenly Evan thought about something and flew in the direction where the explosion had taken place. "That guy is a flame demon so there's a high chance he's still alive. Maybe, he knows something about the orb Nate used earlier."

Soon Evan arrived at the place where the explosion had taken place but other than the sea of red flames, he did not see anything else.

Because of the red flame that could burn even his spiritual senses, Evan had no choice but to search for Asher using normal methods.

After a twenty-minute search, Evan finally found Asher who was in an even worse condition than him.

Half of Asher's body was destroyed due to the explosion and his aura was very weak.

When Evan landed beside him, Asher glanced at him.

Evan wanted to ask him about the orb that Asher had used, but before he could ask anything, Asher opened his mouth and said in a weak voice

"He is coming..... Stop the Monster Army if you want to live."

Evan raised an eyebrow hearing Asher.

"What do you_" He wanted to ask Asher what he meant, but before he could ask him, Asher's life aura disappeared.
