Necromancer Of The Shadows-Chapter 824 Entering The Cave (Part 2)

?Thinking about the strange aura that the cave was releasing, Evan decided to complete the trial that he received.

He stopped in front of the stone platform and tried to pick up a purple-coloured herb from the plate.

Unlike last time, no barrier appeared around the herb when he tried to pick it and he easily picked up the herb.

After picking up the herb, Evan tried to look for its information through the status window, but just as he expected, for some reason, he couldn't see the herb's information.

He looked at the formation that was glowing beneath his feet and finally understood the purpose of the formation.

"And here I thought it was some kind of attack formation or something..." Evan muttered in a low voice and used Shadow Senses.

"What is the name of this herb, Amara?" Since he couldn't see the name of the herb using the status window, he decided to ask Amara. In the closed world of Drayds, Amara had read many books related to alchemy, and her knowledge about herbs was far superior to his.

When Amara heard Evan's voice and saw the violet-coloured herb in his hand, she immediately replied.

"It's a Wyvernwort. It's a herb that needs to be watered with wyvern blood if you want to grow it."

Evan heard Amara's voice inside his head, and his eyes gleamed a little when he heard the herb needed to be watered using the wyvern blood.

'This herb seems to be quite valuable...' He thought to himself but soon shook his head as it wasn't the time for it.

"Now that I know the name of the herb, what should I do next?" He asked himself once Amara told him the name of the herb and looked around him.

Seeing there was nothing around him, he thought for a second and after a moment, said out the name of the herb. "It's a Wyvernwort."

The moment Evan spoke the name of the purple herb, the herb glowed and disappeared from his hand.

Evan raised an eyebrow when the herb disappeared from his hand, but he did not care about it and picked up a yellow flower from the second plate.

"Amara," just like before, he asked Amara for help without any sense of shame.

"It's a Sand Stormleaf."

Hearing Amara, Evan once spoke the name of the flower and it disappeared just like Wyvernwort.

There were a total of ten herbs on the stone platform, and with Amara's help, he quickly identified the first six herbs without any problem.

But when Evan picked up the sixth herb, which looked like a dried branch of a tree, he heard Amara's embarrassed voice.

"I don't know about this herb."

Evan was taken aback when he heard that Amara didn't know what this herb was and didn't know what to do. His knowledge of herbs was close to none, so it was obvious that it was impossible for him to answer the question.

In the end, he sighed and said in a light voice, "Just give me the name of a herb that looks somewhat like this dried branch..."

Amara thought for a few seconds hearing Evan's question and said after a moment, "It looks somewhat like Sunfire Blossom, which is usually quite dry because of the fire energy inside it."

"Sunfire Blossom," Hearing Amara, Evan didn't think too much and named the dried branch.

When he spoke the name of the branch, the branch disappeared from his hand just like the previous herbs.

Evan was lost for words when he saw this as he couldn't determine whether he was right or not, but looking at the remaining three herbs, he first decided to take care of them.

The remaining three herbs were all in Amara's knowledge so he easily identified them. Once the last herb disappeared from his hand, the formation that was glowing beneath his feet shattered.

The moment the formation disappeared, Evan once again heard the same voice inside his head that he had heard earlier.

[Calculating your result...]

[9 right, 1 wrong]

"So that was the wrong answer, huh..." Evan muttered in a low voice when he heard that he answered one question wrong.

Just when he was wondering whether he passed the trial or not, he once again heard the voice inside his head.

[Teleporting you to the second trial...]

Suddenly, another formation lit up under Evan's feet.

Seeing the formation, Evan immediately called back all the shadow undeads that he had released inside the room.

The moment all the shadow undeads entered his shadow storage...

Woosh!

The formation glowed and Evan disappeared from the stone room.

Just like last time, Evan once again felt his head spinning as the teleportation was very unstable.

When the teleportation ended and his feet touched the ground, Evan shook his head and tried to regain his senses. After a few seconds, when he finally regained his senses, he once again heard the voice inside his head.

[Collect the following herbs to pass the second trial...]

A list suddenly materialized in front of Evan. As he had already regained his senses, he grabbed the list and saw there were names of five herbs on it.

[Be cautious while collecting the herbs or you might die!]

The voice once again spoke inside his head, and Evan narrowed his eyes when he heard the warning.

He looked around and noticed he was standing in front of a forest. Glancing behind him, he saw a desolate land devoid of life, in stark contrast to the green, vibrant forest ahead of him.

"Well, it's obvious where I have to go to collect the herbs..." Evan said in a dry voice when he saw the desolate land behind him and looked back at the forest. free(w)ebnovel(.)com

The trees in the forest were shorter than those in the Dark Forest, but still large enough to block most sunlight from reaching the ground.

"Hey Amara, what do you think?" Evan decided to seek expert advice before entering the forest, so he told Amara about the list of the herbs he received. However, before Amara could respond...

Boooooom!

Evan heard a loud booming sound from deep within the forest, accompanied by energy waves spreading in all directions.

"There is someone fighting inside the forest..." Evan muttered in a low voice and narrowed his eyes. "Don't tell me the people who entered the cave before me are also here."
