Necromancer Of The Shadows

Chapter 1088  Stay Alert

"We only have two hours left. Move faster!"

"Clark, have you modified the formation?"

"Yes, I just need to place the monster cores in the centre, and it will be ready."

"Do it quickly, and don't worry about the consumption of cores. Load the formation to its limit so it can exert its full power."

"Yes, sir!"

"Mike, what about the evacuation? Have you cleared out everyone within a fifty-kilometre radius?"

"It's almost done, sir. We just need one more hour."

"Good. If anyone doesn't cooperate, tell them a high-level dungeon is about to appear here, and there's a high chance of a monster breakout."

"Yes, sir!"

A man wearing a professional black suit shouted orders one after another through his smart bracelet. The man was just 170cm tall, had short brown hair and a stick-thin body as if a mere gust of wind could blow him away. However, when the thin man moved through the building, barking orders, people quickly moved out of his way as if they were afraid of him.

The man's name was Vali, an A+ rank hunter and he was responsible for arranging everything regarding the meeting between Evan and the Federation.

Although it had only been two days since Evan appeared on Earth, and the hunters hadn't had an opportunity to gather much information about him, most of them did not have a good impression of him due to his actions since arriving.

The first time he made his appearance, he accidentally released his aura, terrifying the hunters stationed in Base City Five and nearly crashing their expensive energy detection radar. Then he requested to meet with a high-level hunter from the Federation and when Valery went to meet him, he took her to Antarctica... And according to Leon, he took her there to bury her one hundred feet under the ice.

As if that wasn't enough, after shaking all of Antarctica in a fight with Valery, he even warned the hunters to stay away from the portals that had appeared across the Earth if they didn't want to die. Although they had no proof, most of the hunters believed that the portals that appeared across the Earth were related to Evan and that the people who emerged from them were after him.

Not only that, but the black monsters that captured the Glacifern people were also likely connected to him. After causing all this chaos, the Federation received word that Evan wanted to meet with their high-level officials and had issued an ultimatum: if they didn't meet him, he would murder them. (These words were delivered by their trusted informant, Valery.)

After what had happened recently, the high officials of the Federation also wanted to meet Evan, but before doing so, they wanted to make some preparations.

After all, the power that Evan had shown was simply off the charts. If they met him without any preparation, they were afraid that in the event of a disagreement during the meeting, a fight would break out.

Unfortunately, because Evan gave them an ultimatum that if they didn't meet him, he would murder them, they had no choice but to make hasty preparations.

As Vali stopped shouting orders after a few minutes, a tired sigh escaped his mouth and he entered a lift to go to the top floor of the building.

"Damn, I didn't sign up for this sh*t. I thought I just needed to work six hours a day, but here I am doing night shifts without even getting a bonus," Vali cursed under his breath, taking deep breaths to calm down. "I hope the guy who is forcing me to do overtime would get eaten by a monster."

Soon, Vali reached the top of the building and the lift's gate opened. He stepped out of the lift and headed toward the room located at the end of the floor. As he approached the room, the gloomy look on Vali's face was replaced by a professional demeanour. However, because of his sickly appearance, he looked like a seriously ill patient trying to act tough.

*Knock *Knock

Vali knocked on the door after stopping in front of the room and waited patiently.

However, even after ten seconds, there was no response. Seeing no answer, the professional look on Vali's face faded, replaced by his previous gloomy expression.

He took a deep breath and the next second...

Boom!

He kicked open the door, entering without a care for the person inside.

"Motherfu*ker..." Upon entering, Vali muttered under his breath as he saw a man, who appeared to be in his mid-thirties, sleeping comfortably on the room's couch.

"Here I am, doing overtime without even getting bonus pay, and this bastard..." Vali grumbled in a low voice and black smoke, releasing a poisonous aura gathered in his palm.

Once the poisonous gas was concentrated in his hand, he hurled it toward the sleeping man, intending to make him sleep forever. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

But just as the poison gas was about to reach its target, the man sensed the danger and was jolted awake.

"Fu*k..." The man cursed upon seeing the poison ball coming towards him and immediately jumped away from the couch he had been sleeping on.

Sizzle!

A sizzling sound echoed inside the room, and within seconds, the entire couch that had been engulfed by the poisonous gas disintegrated, disappearing from the room.

"Bastard, do you want to kill me?" Boris, the man who had just jumped away, and the head of the Federation shouted in an anger-filled voice.

"What are you talking about, sir? There was a mosquito flying above your head. I thought it might disturb your peaceful sleep, so I just killed it," Vali replied with a professional look on his face.

'Damn it, I need to replace this psycho or one day he'll definitely poison me to death,' Boris shouted inwardly as he took a deep breath.

"What's the situation? Is everything ready?" He asked while sitting down on his office chair.

"Don't worry, sir. While you were busy thinking of a solution to kill all the monsters in the world your dream, I worked all night, and everything is ready."

Boris' eyes twitched when he heard Vali's serious yet sarcastic tone and he suppressed the urge to give him a good beating.

"What about the Code Six Formation? Is it ready?"

"It's ready and can be activated at any time."

Boris asked Vali a few more questions, and after a few minutes, he nodded in satisfaction.

"Good job, Vali. You are as reliable as ever..." Boris said, looking outside the building through the glass window. "It seems the others are here as well."

As he spoke, a few lights flashed outside the building, and some S-rank hunters appeared.

Vali glanced at the hunters who had just arrived, then asked in a low voice, "What did you see in your dream this time?"

Boris remained silent at Vali's question. After a full minute of silence, he looked at the stick-thin man in front of him and sighed.

"Stay alert, Vali. Earth is going to experience another change soon."

Vali's eyes twitched when he heard Boris and he turned to leave.

"Damn, I just want to live a peaceful life. Why is that so difficult?" He once again cursed under his breath as he exited the room.

About an hour and a half later, Vali stood outside the Federation building. Suddenly, the air in front of him shimmered and out of nowhere, Evan and Valery appeared.
