Chapter 628 It Is The Carnage! (Part 4)
Evan stopped some distance away from the giant blood dome and tried to look inside it using his spiritual senses. But he was surprised when he found that his spiritual senses could not penetrate inside the blood dome.
When his spiritual sense didn't work, Evan used the hawk's eye skill, but even by using the hawk's eye skill, he couldn't see anything.
"There is a strange force that is preventing me from seeing what is inside the dome," Evan muttered and slowly walked towards the blood dome. While moving towards the blood dome, he activated the Arcana Embrace skill and created a barrier around him.
In just a few minutes, Evan reached the front of the Blood Dome and saw that a red mist that looked like miasma was covering the dome from the inside and preventing anyone from seeing what was inside it.
"How did you get inside the dungeon?" Just as Evan stopped in front of the blood dome, he heard a voice filled with curiosity.
Evan's expression changed upon hearing the voice because even though he was constantly using his spiritual senses to avoid any surprise attacks, he still could not determine the location of the person who had just spoken.
Suddenly Evan noticed that the miasma covering the blood dome began to thin out and in just a few seconds, most of the miasma covering the dome disappeared.
Evan activated the Temporal Velocity skill seeing miasma was disappearing so that he could immediately move away in case of danger.
"You don't need to act like this," Evan heard the same voice once again when he activated temporal velocity skill and saw someone sitting in the middle of the blood dome. "I have no intention of attacking you.... I am just curious as to how you managed to get into this dungeon despite restrictions of the world laws?"
'Is he the essence clone?' Evan thought inwardly when he saw a man sitting in the middle of the blood dome.
The man had two black horns on top of his head and his skin was slightly red. His two deep yellow eyes were fixed on Evan and he was looking at him like he had just found something interesting. Wisps of blood energy were coming out from all over the blood dome and were being absorbed by the man.
'This guy is dangerous,' Although the man didn't do anything, just by looking at him, Evan could feel that the person in front of him was not simple.
"Don't you think it is inappropriate of you to ignore my question and stare at me like that," Evan came out of his thoughts upon hearing the man's voice once again and took a deep breath.
"How should I address you?" He asked after taking a deep breath.
The man smiled when he heard Evan and shrugged his shoulders.
"I am just a clone so I don't have a name. But you can call me Lord or Master."
Evan nodded his head hearing the man and took out a chair from his shadow storage.
"Since you don't have a name I will just call you di*khead."
He sat down on the chair he had taken out and looked at the man with an indifferent look on his face.
"Kid, do you know what happened to the last person who had talked to me like this?" The man asked Evan in a cold voice and a powerful spiritual pressure filled the surroundings.
When Evan felt the powerful spiritual pressure from the man's body, he couldn't help but tremble slightly. If this had happened before, he would not have been able to handle this level of spiritual pressure. But now that both of his cores were at S rank, Evan could handle this level of spiritual pressure without much problem.
He closed his eyes for a second to adjust himself to the spiritual pressure, and when he opened them again, his expression became indifferent.
"Tell me, I have plenty of free time so I might as well listen to what happened to the guy who talked to you like this last time," Evan said while resting his head on his palm.
The man looked at Evan's indifferent face for a few seconds. Suddenly, the spiritual pressure that was filling the surroundings disappeared and the man smiled slightly.
"You are not bad."
"Since you are done with your so called menacing act, can we talk now?" Evan ignored what the man said and asked in an indifferent voice.
"What do you want to talk about?"
"First of all, what should I call you? You don't want me to call you di*khead, right?"
"I don't have a name, but you can call me Clone because that's basically what I am."
"Alright Clone, you want to know how I got into this dungeon... And I also have some questions for you. Then how about this..." Evan said. "I will answer your question and in return, you will have to answer my question."
"Sure," Clone nodded his head without any problem after hearing what Evan said. "Since you are the guest here you can ask the first question."
"Then I will not deny your goodwill," Evan said after listening to Clone. "My question is simple, were you the one who taught Sera and the others the method of summoning demons and told them to kill humans?"
"Yeah," Clone didn't deny and said without any expression on his face. "I put a lot of effort into them, but in the end, they all turned out to be useless because they never accomplished a single task perfectly."
"I see," Evan nodded his head hearing Clone and didn't show much surprise
"Now my turn, tell me, how did you enter the dungeon even though it is sealed by a law barrier?"
"I have a skill that allows me to bypass all barriers. I simply used that skill and entered the dungeon." Evan said and leaned back in his chair.
"Are you kidding me?" Clone said in a cold voice. "That is a barrier made from the law energy of this world. There is no way you could bypass it just by using a skill."
"Law energy?" Evan showed a confused expression hearing Clone. "I don't know what the law energy you are talking about, but I really entered this dungeon by using my skill."
Clone looked at Evan with narrowed eyes and tried to see if he could get anything from his expression. But even under Clone's narrowed eyes, Evan's expression didn't change.
'Is he telling the truth?' Clone thought when he saw Evan's confused expression.
'Does this stupid bastard think I'm going to tell him about my title Rule Breaker?' Evan sneered inwardly and maintained the same expression outside.
After a few seconds, Clone stopped looking at Evan and nodded his head.
"What do you want to ask next?"
Evan's face turned serious when he heard Clone.
"What is your goal?" He asked in a serious voice. "From Sera and others, I heard that you taught them the method of summoning demons so that they could kill as many humans as possible and can evolve into demons after using the tower of ascension, but I know all of this is just pure bullshit. Tell me, what is your real goal? "
Clone shook his head hearing Evan.
"I don't know what you want to hear from me, but what Sera and others told you is true. The reason I worked so hard was really because I wanted them to evolve into demons after using the tower of ascension."
"Look, you are answering my questions because there is something that you want to know from me..." Evan said in a cold voice. "... But if you are not going to answer my question honestly then you can forget about receiving any answer from me."
"You are saying I am lying?" Clone asked with narrowed eyes. "Do you have any proof that I am lying?"
"Tower Of Ascension," Evan said in the same cold voice.
Clone's expressions changed a little when he heard Evan and he looked at him with a surprised expression on his face.
Seeing the surprised expression on Clone's face, Evan's lip curled upward in a disdainful smile. "Do you need any other proof?"
Clone looked at Evan's disdainful smile for a few seconds and shrugged his shoulders.
"Fine, I admit that I was deceiving those stupid humans," Clone said and smiled lightly. "Don't tell me you are going to take revenge for those humans?"
"I don't care whether you were deceiving them or not. I just want to know what is your goal?"
"Since you said Tower Of Ascension, don't you know what my goal is?" Clone asked in a curious voice hearing Evan.
"I have a guess but I want to hear the truth from you."
"Well... I don't know what your guess is, but yeah...my goal was the Tower of Ascension," Clone said and looked at Evan. "Do you know what happens when a S ranker uses the Tower of Ascension?"
"Their core will evolve to the next level and their mana will turn into world essence," Evan replied when he heard Clone.
"You are right, their core will evolve and their mana will turn into world essence once an S ranker uses the Towe Of Ascension. In other words, they will become a Rank One Core Evolver but..." Clone said and smiled lightly. "...This benefit is available only for the people of the lower worlds. There is no Tower of Ascension in Utopia, so how do you think the S Rankers of Utopia raise their ranks."
"So my guess was right, huh," Evan muttered in a low voice and continued to hear what Clone was saying.
"In order to become Rank One Core Evolver, the S rankers of Utopia have to work hard for years to turn their mana into world essence and have to take a pill named 'Source Pill' to evolve their core," Clone said and smiled mockingly.
"The Source Pill is extremely rare, but even after taking this pill, the chances of an S ranker successfully becoming a Rank One Core Evolver are less than 50%. On the other hand, by using the Tower Of Ascension, the chances of an S ranker becoming a Rank One Core Evolver are almost 100%."
"There are hundreds of thousands of demons in Utopia who couldn't evolve further after becoming S rankers and are completely useless, but what if those hundreds of thousands of demons become Rank One Evolvers? Once these demons evolve into Rank One Core Evolvers the power of demons will increase to a completely different level and no o_"
"Alright alright," Evan stopped Clone from speaking further because he already knew what he was going to say next.
"All in all, you did all this so that Nate and others would summon demons by using the summoning formations that you taught them.... And the main goal of those demons was to plunder the resources of this world to reach S rank and use the Tower Of Ascension to directly become a Rank One Core Evolver, right?"
"Yes," Clone nodded his head. "You don't know much about Utopia so you can't understand the value of Rank Evolvers. But once you go there, you will understand why I am doing this."
"I can already guess why you are doing this but it's not like I give a sh*t because I have the growth link skill that is broken beyond belief," Evan muttered in a low voice that only he could hear.
"Since I answered your question now it is my turn to ask you something," Clone said and leaned forward.
"Who are you?" He asked while narrowing his eyes. "Not only i can feel world essence and conceptual energy from you even though you are just an S ranker, but you even know about demon language that you used to modify the ritual conductor and take control over the demons that were summoned by the Dark Guild. Who taught you the demon language? "
Evan scratched the back of his head hearing Clone. "Will you believe me if I say I learned the demon language in my dreams?"
Clone's eyes turned cold when he heard Evan. "Are you messing with me?"
Evan sighed when he saw Clone's cold look and spread his hands. "I know it sounds absurd but it is the truth. I really learned the demon language in my dreams."
Clone looked at Evan's expression carefully and fell into deep thought.
'From the look on his face it doesn't seem like he is lying' Clone thought inwardly. 'Although I was able to preserve my ego after being sent inside the dungeon by the laws of this world, I lost most of my memories and knowledge so I can't even confirm if there was any case similar to him in the past.'
"What about the world essence and the conceptual energy? You are just an S ranker so why can I feel the world essence and conceptual energy from you?" He asked Evan after a moment.
"I just answered your question so don't you think it is my turn to ask a question now?"
Clone looked at Evan for a few seconds and took a deep breath. "What do you want to ask now?"
"I don't want to ask anything now," Evan said and stood up from his chair.
"What do you mean?"
"I meant what I just said," Evan said and put his chair away. "I have no more questions to ask so our Q&A session is over."
"What about my questions? I still want to ask you about some things?"
"Why should I care about your questions? It is not like I owe you money, right?" Evan said with a smile on his face.
A dangerous aura started to come out from Clone's body but Evan completely ignored him.
"After watching him carefully this whole time I already know how to defeat this guy, so there's no point in delaying any longer," Evan muttered to himself and used the second effect of the growth link skill.
Using the second effect of the growth link skill, Evan took Blood Demon's skill 'Blood Manipulation'
"Although I can not see it with my eyes, I am sure this guy is still absorbing the blood energy that is coming inside the dungeon from the portal," Evan said and activated the Blood Manipulation skill.
Rumble!
The moment Evan activated the blood manipulation skill, the blood dome started to shake and Clone's expression changed.
