Evan's clone looked at the small orb with excitement on his face and took a deep breath.

"If I gather all four fragments of the Origin Rune Essence, I will be able to evolve the Rune of Evolution..." He muttered in a low voice, feeling excited just thinking about what kind of changes it would bring if he evolved his Rune.

The effects of the Rune of Evolution were already quite powerful. Although it hadn't helped him much since he became a Rank One Core Evolver, he felt that if he evolved it once again, it would definitely bring earth-shattering changes to its effects.

Just when Evan was thinking about the Rune of Evolution, he received a message from Eclipse, whom he had released earlier, and his lips arched upwards.

"Found it..." He said to himself and dropped the small orb of Origin Rune Essence into his shadow storage, sending it to the real Evan, who was still in the meeting room with Boris and the others.

"After the meeting, I need to ask Boris where he got this orb..." Evan's clone muttered and headed in Eclipse's direction.

In just a few seconds, he arrived at Eclipse's location and was shocked because a dungeon portal, two meters tall and one meter wide was glowing in front of him.

He was not shocked because of the dungeon portal itself; the reason he was shocked was that this portal was not releasing any kind of energy fluctuations, and there wasn't even a single concealment formation around it.

But even though there wasn't any concealment formation around the portal, Evan still couldn't feel its presence.

If it weren't for the fact that he was looking at the portal with his own eyes, he wouldn't have even realized there was a portal here.

He used his spiritual senses to examine the area where the portal was located and found that his spiritual senses couldn't detect anything. Through his spiritual senses, all he saw was an empty space with nothing there.

"It's good that I decided to come here when I didn't find the dungeon portal through my spiritual senses. If I had ignored this place after not finding it through my spiritual senses..." Evan muttered in a low voice and shook his head.

He walked closer to the portal but didn't enter immediately. Instead, he first walked around the portal, trying to find out why this portal was not releasing any energy fluctuations or why he couldn't sense its presence using his spiritual senses, even though it wasn't protected by a formation.

"There is really something strange about this portal. It's like... it's here, but not here at the same time..." Evan said with a frown on his face.

The dungeon portal in front of him was very strange. Even though it looked as if it was in front of him, Evan had the feeling that this portal was not really here and that what he was looking at was just a mere projection.

"Projection..." Suddenly, Evan's eyes widened and he immediately thought about the Tower of Ascension.

When Evan first used the Tower of Ascension in Arora World and went to the World Domain, he learned that the Towers of Ascension located in all the lower worlds were just projections and that the real Tower of Ascension was located in the middle of the World Domain, which he later used to go to Utopia.

Although at that time Evan didn't feel anything wrong with the Tower of Ascension located in Arora World because his rank was very low, he could now tell that the portal in front of him was similar to the Tower located in Arora World.

"Since this portal is just a projection like the Tower of Ascension, does it mean that once I enter, I will be sent to the place where the real portal of this dungeon is located?" He muttered with a thoughtful look on his face.

But he felt something was not right. When Valery told him about this dungeon, she didn't mention anything about being sent to another place. She told him that upon entering the portal, he would be sent inside a dungeon where he could get an Energy Pearl, and by using that Energy Pearl, he could increase the rank of his core to S+ Rank.

"Although I feel like this portal is a little different from what Valery told me, I still need to go in and take a look..." Evan said to himself and took a step forward, trying to enter the dungeon.

But the moment the clone touched the portal, a repelling force erupted from it, pushing him backwards.

"Hmm?" Evan raised an eyebrow when he was pushed back and tried to enter again. But, similar to before, he was once again pushed back.

"What's going on?" Evan frowned when he wasn't able to enter the projection of the portal and looked at Eclipse, who was beside him.

"Try to go in."

Receiving Evan's order, Eclipse didn't hesitate and rushed toward the portal, immediately passing through it without any problem.

Evan was surprised when Eclipse successfully entered the portal, but before he could think anything else, he lost his connection with Eclipse, meaning it had died the moment it entered the portal.

"What the fu*k, are there monsters waiting to ambush people who enter the portals?" Evan cursed under his breath and summoned Eclipse back, consuming his world essence.

After summoning back Eclipse, he asked what had happened after entering the portal, and Eclipse told him that it didn't reach the other end of the portal and was torn apart in the middle.

"This portal is really different from what Valery told me, or... could it be that this portal is acting differently because of me?" The clone thought and immediately sent all the information to Evan, who was in the meeting room.

After sending the information, the clone received the order from Evan to search the basement to see if there was another portal and he would come to look at the portal after the end of the meeting.

Once the clone received Evan's order, he looked at the portal one last time and then left, searching the underground basement to look for another portal.

At the same time, on the top floor of the Federation Building, the meeting that had been going on for around half an hour also came to an end.
