Necromancer Of The Shadows
779 Now, Where Should I Look For Him
While Evan was cultivating in the law formation room, numerous events unfolded in the outside world.
Firstly, news of the Enlightenment Stone robbery spread throughout Utopia. The Bloodmoon Auction House increased the bounty on Evan and Cedar to sixty million high level essence stones and announced that they were hiding somewhere in the Dark Forest.
Because of the huge bounty, thousands of new people were arriving in the Dark Forest every day, searching for Evan and Cedar. The bounty explicitly mentioned that Evan and Cedar were just Beginner Level Rank One and Mid Level Rank Two Core Evolvers, making them perfect targets even for those lacking significant power.
Moreover, with the help of the vampires who saw Evan leaving the Dark Forest, Thomas provided the Bloodmoon Auction House with Evan's picture with his real appearance.
With current technology, it was not difficult for the Bloodmoon Auction House to spread Evan's image all over Utopia, making him one of the most wanted men worldwide.
People were quite shocked when the bounty on Evan and Cedar was released, as it was the first time such a high bounty was placed on individuals who were not even at the peak of Rank Two. Although most people could understand the Bloodmoon Auction House's motives for offering such a substantial bounty—primarily to restore their reputation—many people still felt it was quite strange for the organization to target Rank One and Rank Two Core Evolvers with such a high bounty.
Unknown to all these people, the reason the Bloodmoon Auction House placed such a high bounty on Evan and Cedar was not only because of the Enlightenment Stone but also because of the robbery Evan committed at the last second.
The person who announced the bounty was Lucian and he hoped that by capturing Evan, he would be able to recover two hundred and thirty one million high-level essence stones stolen from him and others. Although he didn't want to put such a high bounty on Evan and Cedar, he had no choice because his life was on the line.
The owner of the Bloodmoon Auction House was furious with Lucian upon his return. When he learned that a Rank One and Rank Two Core evolver had stolen the Enlightenment Stone entrusted to them for auction, he gave Lucian an ultimatum: if he couldn't recover the Enlightenment Stone within one year, his life would be over.
Upon discovering that Evan and Cedar were hiding in the Dark Forest, the owner of the Bloodmoon Auction House even contacted the overlord of the Dark Forest, requesting assistance in the search by using the forest's monsters, all of which were the subordinates of the overlord of the Dark Forest.
The Overlord of the Dark Forest agreed to help find Evan and Cedar and received substantial compensation from the owner of the Bloodmoon Auction House in return for his assistance. For a disaster-class entity like the owner of the Bloodmoon Auction House, reputation was crucial, so he offered significant incentives to the overlord of the Dark Forest in exchange for his help.
Now, in addition to the people who came from all over Utopia, many monsters of the Dark Forest who were the subordinates of the Overlord of the Dark Forest were also looking for Evan and Cedar.
Besides the bounty on Evan and Cedar, the second news that rocked the entire Utopia was the revelation of a hidden secret realm within the inner area of the Dark Forest.
This news was released by Damon (the silver haired vampire) and Roderick (the black-haired vampire). For a whole month, both of them waited and searched near the area where they had seen the portal, hoping to rediscover the entrance to the secret realm.
Unfortunately, they were unable to find any trace of the secret realm even after an entire month of searching.
Both of them had come to the Dark Forest to look for Evan and Cedar, but because of the secret realm, they ended up wasting the entire month.
They feared that other people who arrived in the Dark Forest might have already found clues about Evan and Cedar, so they decided to publicize the news of the secret realm in order to shift people's attention from Evan and Cedar to the secret realm. This way, they thought they would be able to reduce the number of people looking for Evan and Cedar to some extent.
The secret realm was always a top priority for all factions of Utopia, so upon hearing the news about it, many more people arrived in Dark Forest.
Some factions even sent Rank Four Core Evolvers to search for the secret realm, and now the Dark Forest was currently overflowing with people from different factions.
The hidden world of the Drayds was located in the Central Area of the Dark Forest, so they were not overly affected by this event, as the Central Area of the Dark Forest was a forbidden zone due to the presence of the overlord of the Dark Forest.
Although they were not overly affected, this did not mean they were not concerned. Because of this event, Sylvan forbade anyone to leave the closed world until everything calmed down.
While the people were looking for Evan and Cedar, a woman stopped in front of the entrance of the Dark Forest.
"I do not even remember when was the last time I came here..." The woman said while looking at the Dark Forest.
The woman had flowing long black hair that cascaded down her shoulders, framing her features. Her piercing black eyes reflected the tranquillity of nature as she stood before the forest. In contrast to her black hair and black eyes, the woman was wearing a long white dress that enhanced her beauty even more.
"Now, where should I look for him in this giant forest..." Anastasia muttered as she took a step forward and entered the forest. "... Maybe I should go and ask that guy to help me look for him."
