Necromancer Of The Shadows



---) Growth Link-: A skill created using the Forbidden Knowledge of the Ebonmancer class. The skill level is very high so most of the skill's effects are currently sealed. More skill effects will be unlocked as the user increases the rank of his core.

The current effect of the skill -

1. The Growth link skill will create a link between you, and all of your-----

2. You can take two skills from any of your Shadow Undeads------

3. The Growth Link skill will create a link between you and any of your artefacts. After the successful link, your artefact will evolve along with your rank. In order for the artefact to successfully evolve, you will need to provide evolutionary materials. Currently, you can create links with two artefacts at most. Once the link is created, you will not be able to break or change it.

"Holy mother of the great god..." When Evan read the third effect of the Growth link skill, his eyes opened wide like saucers.

To be able to evolve his artefacts along with his rank was a very big matter to him. If he uses the growth link skill on his 'Blazebringer gauntlets' and evolves it, it will become an S rank artefact.

The S rank artefacts are very rare in the entire Arora World but he can make them just by using his skill.

He took some deep breaths to calm down his beating heart and looked at some important points.

Looking at the line saying he needs to provide evolutionary materials, Evan could roughly guess that, unlike his shadow undeads that directly evolves along with him, he will need to collect some high ranking materials if he wants to evolve his artefact.

"With my current resources, it would not be difficult for me to collect some high end materials," Evan muttered and looked at the second point.

"I can use growth link skill only on two artefacts for the time being, and I won't be able to change connected artefacts in future," Evan said with furrowed eyebrows.

He had many artefacts that he wanted to evolve, but because of the limit of current growth link skill, he could only choose two artefacts.

He thought about it for a moment and decided to use it after dealing with the 'Abyassl Spider'

He closed his status window and tried to feel the souls that he absorbed using 'Soul Absorption'.

When he focused, he found he had absorbed around one million souls of spiders.

'I wonder what kind of power my skills will show if I use all the collected souls as fuel' Evan thought with an uncertain look on his face.

His instincts were telling him to not even think about using all the souls as fuel to increase the power of his skills.

'Will I be able to unleash a world destroying attack?' Evan wondered inwardly when his instincts told him not to try something stupid.

The blue spider continued to lead the way and soon brought him into a mountain valley. The Valley was surrounded by mountains and he could feel the presence of many spiders in it.

While moving, Evan noticed there were many large holes inside the mountain valley and all the fifty thousand spiders that came with the blue spider went inside the holes, disappearing from his sight.

Evan continued to follow the blue spider and used his spiritual senses to scan the surroundings. When he used his spiritual senses, Evan couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

Using the spiritual senses he just saw the entire underground of the mountain valley was filled with spiders.

The numbers of spiders were far higher than he initially thought. If he take the entire valley into account, then the numbers of spiders were definitely higher than five million.

As he went deeper, Evan noticed that it would be difficult for people to escape from the valley if all of the spiders decided to attack at the same time.

But even after seeing all of this, Evan's expression didn't change and he followed after the blue spider with the indifferent expression on his face.

After around fifteen minutes, Evan's spiritual senses suddenly caught the aura of ten A+ rank spiders that were similar to the blue spiders. All the blue spiders were in the deeper area of the valley and were standing inside a cave.

As he spread his spiritual senses, Evan saw a spider that was deep red in colour in the inner area of the cave. The spider was five meters tall, smaller than the blue spiders, but the aura around it was far more powerful than the blue spiders.

'Abyassl Spider huh,' Evan thought inwardly when he saw the red spider.

As Evan was looking at it, the red spider suddenly lifted its head and showed its sharp teeth.

Evan was a little surprised when he saw the spider was able to sense his spiritual senses, after all, his current spiritual power was even higher than normal S rank hunters.

'Looks like the spiritual power of this spider is quite high' Evan thought and followed after the blue spider.

When he reached the cave, Evan did not summon back his wyverns and let them circle above the valley.

Shriek! Shriek!--

Just as Evan entered the cave, many spiders came out from the holes that were dug all over the valley and blocked the entrance, cutting off his escape path.

Evan did not even look at the entrance when spiders blocked the entrance and just followed after the blue spider without any change in his expression.

When he reached the inner area of the cave, he saw the ten blue spiders that he noticed earlier.

The blue spider that was leading the way stopped after seeing the ten blue spiders.

Evan patted Albelu's head and it also stopped some distance behind the blue spider.

Evan did not look at the ten blue spiders that were standing in the cave as his eyes were fixed on the deeper area of the cave.

"I can finally give it a piece of my mind huh," Evan muttered in a low voice as he saw the red spider that he saw earlier walking out from the deeper area of the cave.
