Necromancer Of The Shadows

Chapter 1068  Hidden Dimension

When the earth changed more than fifteen years ago and dungeons and monsters appeared, most countries lost large portions of their territories, and about 30% of the human population was wiped out.

The widespread deaths from dungeon outbreaks and monster attacks were also one of the reasons that led many people to believe that Ray, who was thought to be the cause of it all had signed a contract with the devil.

The loss of around 30% of the human population was nothing short of catastrophic.

Some countries were entirely destroyed when the earth changed, others were half-destroyed and a few barely survived, with only a handful of cities left standing.

All in all, there wasn't a single country that remained unscathed by the sudden change on Earth.

After the initial phase of the disaster, most of the Earth was overrun by monsters, forcing humanity to work together. Thus, The Hunter Federation was created, where hunters from all countries united to tackle the monster problem. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Although they were called hunters of different countries, there were hardly any countries left, as most of their territories were occupied by monsters.

Even though hunters cleared some areas, the places where humans currently lived were no larger than medium-sized cities, slightly bigger than Base City Five, which Evan had seen earlier.

Base cities were different from other cities; they were established to monitor dangerous places like the Amazon Rainforest, the Sahara Desert, and other regions with high-level monsters.

If these places weren't monitored and a new dungeon unexpectedly appeared there, the number of monsters in there would immediately skyrocket due to the dungeon outbreak and these monsters would likely try to expand their territory.

The size of Earth was already small compared to the Arora World, and with most of the planet's surface covered in water where humans couldn't live, they had to carefully monitor the land to prevent it from being overrun by monsters.

Currently, Evan was standing amidst the ruins of a destroyed city. It was the city where he used to live before he got his one-way ticket to the Arora World.

Florida.

Yes, before his death, he used to be a Florida man.

"When I lived here, I always thought I was very sane compared to some of the Florida men who often appeared in the news, but now, thinking about my recent actions in Utopia, I think I'm fully qualified to take the front page, leaving most of the Florida men behind..." Evan muttered in an unusual tone, looking at the ruined city and reflecting on the things he had done in the Gehenna Empire in the last two months.

The Florida city, which used to bustle all day long, was now eerily quiet, with rubble from destroyed buildings scattered everywhere.

From time to time, Evan could sense the auras of monsters that now filled the tattered land and a sigh escaped his lips.

"I wonder if I can still find my game collection..." He muttered to himself, remembering the days when he cut his food supply, living on cheap cup noodles to save money to buy new games.

"I was really obsessed with games, huh... Evan muttered and took a step forward, instantly appearing atop a damaged building, his eyes landing on a clear area in front of him.

Unlike other parts of the city, filled with debris from destroyed buildings, this area was completely clear, devoid of any rubble.

"So the information on the internet was right, the first dungeon that appeared on Earth disappeared around four years ago..." Evan murmured to himself, staring at the spot where his apartment used to stand.

Suddenly, his pupils began to spin like swirling vortexes as he activated the Eyes of the Abyss to observe the place where his apartment once was.

"Hmmm?" Upon using the Eyes of the Abyss, Evan was surprised as he saw a hidden dimension at the spot where his apartment used to be, but this dimension was sealed.

Evan extended his spiritual senses, trying to bypass the boundaries of dimension, but to his surprise, he found even with his spiritual senses that were almost comparable to a Peak Rank Three Core Evolver, he couldn't penetrate the boundaries of the dimension.

"Interesting..." Evan took a step forward, instantly appearing in front of the hidden dimension.

He lifted his hand and unleashed his physical strength, a force that could easily destroy the entire Earth with a single punch.

Rumble!

The entire ruined city began to tremble as if an earthquake was coming, and all the monsters within Florida City turned their eyes in Evan's direction with a look of horror in their eyes.

Evan carefully controlled his physical strength to avoid causing extensive damage and attempted to tear the space in front of him to open the hidden dimension.

Boom!

With a booming sound, the space in front of him exploded, revealing a dark void rift. But to his shock, the hidden dimension showed no sign of breaking apart.

Rumble!

He increased the output of his strength, and the void rift started to enlarge, but the hidden dimension remained intact.

"If I use my full strength to break it, I may be able to open this hidden dimension, but if I do that, Earth will definitely suffer irreversible damage..." Evan muttered under his breath, looking at the void rift that was slowly expanding and stopped using his strength.

As he withdrew his power, the void rift began to close and the space started to return to normal.

Evan stared at the closing void rift and decided to use his Void Senses ability to see if he could penetrate the hidden dimension with his spiritual senses through the void space.

Unfortunately, even with Void Senses, he was unable to send his spiritual senses inside the hidden dimension.

"Looks like I'll have to find a different way to open this hidden dimension..." He said to himself, convinced that there was something important inside the dimension before him.

"This place is where I used to live, so there is a chance I might find something about that black figure once I get in," He muttered softly, then vanished from the spot.
