Necromancer Of The Shadows

Looking at the sleeping Griffin, Evan took a deep breath and stopped using the invisibility effect of the shadow walk skill. At the same time, he released his aura and walked out from behind the sand mountain, heading towards the monster.

The moment Evan stopped using the invisibility effect of the shadow walk skill and walked out, the eyebrows of the sleeping Griffin fluttered and it opened its dark yellow, eagle-like eyes.

Evan didn't try to launch a surprise attack on the Peak Rank Three Griffin because he knew it would be useless.

In the central area of the first layer, there are hundreds of groups of monsters, and all the groups have hostile relationships with each other. In this kind of environment, where you are surrounded by enemies, it is simply impossible for someone not to be on guard, especially during sleep.

So, although on the surface it may have looked like the Griffin was sleeping without any care in the world, in reality, it was very vigilant.

If Evan had tried to launch a surprise attack, it would have immediately woken up and used its strongest means to eliminate the threat.

But if, instead of launching a surprise attack, Evan exposed himself in front of the Griffin, the Griffin wouldn't immediately attack him. Instead, it would first calculate the threat level Evan posed to it and deal with him accordingly.

For the monsters in the central area of the first layer, it is very important to preserve energy to keep themselves safe in case something unexpected happens. If the threat level is not high, most of the monsters don't use their skills and simply kill the enemy using brute force.

Evan was hoping that after seeing he was just a beginner-level Rank Two Core Evolver, the Griffin would lower its guard, and he would get a perfect opportunity to launch his attack.

After opening its eyes, the Griffin immediately looked towards Evan and seeing a bug-sized, two-legged animal daring to enter its territory, its eyes turned cold.

When the Griffin sensed Evan's presence earlier, it thought a monster had come to cause trouble. But after seeing it was just a beginner-level Rank Two guy who disturbed its sleep, the Griffin was quite angry.

When Evan saw the Griffin looking at him, his body stiffened, and he felt a mountain like pressure bearing down on his body, making it hard for him to move forward.

'Damn, I knew a Peak Rank Three monster would not be easy to handle, but to think just by using its aura it can stop me from moving...' Evan cursed inwardly as he looked at the Griffin with fake fear on his face.

When the fifteen meters tall Griffin saw Evan's fearful expression, an amused light flashed inside its deep yellow eyes and it started to walk towards him with a haughty look on its face.

With each step the Griffin took, Evan felt the pressure on him intensify, but he tried to remain calm and waited for the perfect opportunity to launch his attack.

Soon, the Griffin was just twenty meters away from him and Evan had to circulate his Primordial Shadow Energy to bear the pressure of the Griffin.

At this point, the Griffin was releasing its aura without holding back and seeing Evan still standing without dropping to the ground, its giant lips curled upward in a threatening smile and it looked at Evan as if it were looking at a rare toy.

Suddenly, the pressure the Griffin was releasing disappeared.

Evan was surprised when the pressure from the Griffin disappeared, but before he could sigh in relief, the monster once again released its pressure, making Evan stumble because of the sudden onslaught.

'Damn, this bastard is playing with me...' Evan thought inwardly as a cold light flashed inside his eyes, but he did not take any action because it was not the right time.

Facing the powerful pressure, he just showed a fearful expression and acted as if he was about to faint due to pressure.

The Griffin felt very satisfied when it saw Evan looking at it with fearful eyes. It was still pissed that Evan had disturbed its sleep and wanted to play with him a little before finishing him off.

After some time, when Griffin saw that the small guy in front of it was about to pass out, it once again receded its aura, allowing Evan to take a breather. However, this time, when the Griffin receded its aura, Evan did not show a joyous expression like before. Instead, a horrified expression appeared on his face as he pointed behind the Griffin and took a few steps back as if he was afraid of something.

The Griffin was stunned when it saw Evan's horrified expression, and upon noticing that he was pointing behind it, it immediately turned its head, thinking someone was there.

But upon turning, it saw nothing but the nightly desert. Seeing there was no one behind it, the rank three monster immediately understood that it had been fooled by Evan and a look of anger flashed on its face.

The Griffin was about to turn around to teach Evan a lesson when suddenly, the surroundings around it started to become dark. The flowing wind stopped, the space around it became disordered, and a terrifying chill enveloped its body.

Evan, who was standing not far away from Griffin looked at the peak Rank Three monster with a serious look on his face.

The terrified expression he had been showing to the Griffin had long since disappeared and his deep black eyes were glowing with a purple light

When Evan saw the Griffin was about to turn around, he opened his mouth.

His Void Energy, World Essence, Spiritual Power, and Primordial Shadow Energy moved simultaneously, the world around him started be become dark as if he had entered the void space and two words that sent a chill down the Griffin's body came out of his mouth.

"Void Rend!"
