Necromancer Of The Shadows - Chapter 84

Chapter 84: Fourth Floor (Part 1)
“Frost Nova” Valery muttered and pointed her sword in front of her.

Just as she muttered a small five centimeters wide blue orb started to form at the tip of her sword. The orb was releasing cold and destructive power at the same time.

“Go” When the orb was fully formed Valery said and the blue orb shot toward three white apes who were bound by the ice chains at the same place.

The orb was very small in size, but when the three apes saw the orb coming towards them their eyes flashed with horror and they tried to break free from the chains.

Alas, the chains were too tough and they weren’t able to break them.

The blue orb arrived before them and exploded right before their bodies.

Chiiiiii!!

When the orb exploded it released icy power that instantly froze everything within ten meters of the area.

In ten meters of area, everything was enclosed in light blue ice.

The three ice apes were also frozen solid and turned into ice statues enclosed inside light blue ice.

Even the white snowy plain of the floor was covered in light blue ice in that ten meters area.

Valery panted a little after using frost nova, and slowly walk towards the three ice apes that turned into ice statues.

Valery come before one of the statues and smashed her palm at it with full force.

Crack… Crack….. Crack… Cracked!!!!

When Valery’s palm landed on the statue tens of cracks appeared all over it, and it shattered into small ice fragments.

Valery did the same thing with the other two statues and they also turned into small ice fragments.

Valery looked among the fragments and found one core that was also covered in light blue ice.

After collecting the core, she looked a little distance away from her and saw Evan who smashed one ice ape into the ground and then killed it with his sword.

“He fights using his fists more than his sword” Valery muttered and walked towards him.

After killing the last ape Evan also looked for the core and cursed when he didn’t find anything, from the bodies of the three apes.

“Let’s go we are almost there,” Valery said to Evan after coming near him and they started to walk forward.

After walking for fifteen minutes they didn’t encounter any monsters and saw a large pyramid-type structure in front of them.

“We are here,” Valery said and sighed in relief.

It is been six hours since they arrived on the third floor and this floor was similar to the first floor where they have to reach the large pyramid in the distance.

But unlike the first floor, the pyramid of this floor was around twenty kilometers away from them, and there were many monsters they encounter this time.

For the past six hours, they were continuously fighting against monsters and were very tired.

During these six hours, Evan killed many C rank monsters and got eight cores. While Valery was more lucky than Evan and got ten cores.

But since she has to give fifty percent of her cores to Evan she only gets five cores in the end, while Evan got thirteen cores.

Now he has a total of twenty-two C rank cores.

When they arrived near the pyramid they saw the portal that was leading to the fourth floor, but they didn’t enter it.

“Let’s rest here before going to the fourth floor,” Valery said and Evan nodded his head.

He was also tired after fighting against monsters for hours.

And before going to the next floor Evan wanted to absorb the cores that he gather.

Although his monarch core will not advance to the next level Evan was hoping to get a skill that might help him here.

‘I should get at least one skill after absorbing twenty-two cores right’ Evan thought and set up a small camp near the pyramid.

Valery also did the same and created her own camp.

After setting up the camp both of them went inside their camp. The area around the portal and pyramid is the safe zone of the dungeon, and monsters will not come here so they were not worried about getting attacked while resting.

Evan first ate some food that he bought with him.

And obviously, he didn’t bring cup noodles.

He is rich now!

So he brought expensive MRE food that taste quite good.

He wanted to bring fish and other things that he can cook himself, but when he remembered he is a user of bachelor cooking.com he just brought MRE food.

After eating his food Evan decided to sleep before absorbing the cores. It is been around fifteen hours since he enter the dungeon and he didn’t sleep properly during this time.

Evan set an alarm on his phone and went to sleep.

He woke up after four hours when the alarm that he set up rang. After waking up Evan felt quite refreshed and stretched his body a little.

After stretching, Evan ate another MRE meal.

The novels that he read in his past life were a scam. In most of the novel, they say after becoming powerful people can live without eating.

They can live just by using the energy present in the environment. In other words, they can live just by eating air.

But Evan found out that the more strong he become the more energy his body needed. He is definitely eating more than he used to eat before.

After eating Evan finally took out the cores that he collected in the dungeon.

After taking them out he did not wait any longer and popped one of the cores into his mouth.

Just like usual the cores turned into energy, and that energy rushed toward his core.

Soon his monarch core absorbed the energy, but he did not receive any skill.

Evan was not disappointed by it and used another core.

Just like this, he continues to use one core after another.

Suddenly when Evan absorbed his fourteenth core he received a notification.

(You have received the skill——-)
