Glacialheim is one of the most important cities in the Frozen Monarchy Empire.
There are many reasons for this, but the two most important are: first, Winterclaw, the Ice Monarch, lives in Glacialheim and second, the people of Glacialheim are special.
Unlike the other inhabitants of the Frozen Monarchy, the people who live in Glacialheim are different.
While there are tens of different kinds of species that live across the Frozen Monarchy Empire, in Glacialheim, where Winterclaw resides, there is only a single species living in the entire city.
This species is called the Glacifern, a unique race fully loyal to Winterclaw and possessing very high talent and most of the people of this race can become high-level core evolvers.
Before entering the Tomb of the Ancient, Evan had sought information about all the powerful species he needed to be wary of after entering the Tomb and the Glaciferns were among them.
Although he didn't encounter anyone from the Glacifern species after entering the Tomb, he had seen their pictures, so the moment he saw Shaldik's pale blue skin and lean body, he immediately recognized that he was someone from Glacifern.
When he saw Shaldik for the first time, he was surprised. Just a few minutes earlier, he had guessed that Winterclaw hadn't sent his people into the Tomb of the Ancient because he was looking for Valery and now someone from his side had appeared in front of him.
He was slightly serious when the portal first appeared and he sensed the existence of the World Essence on the other end, but once Shaldik walked out and Evan felt that his aura was only at the peak of Rank Two, he didn't worry too much about him.
Even though people from the Glacifern species were powerful, he couldn't care less about them unless he faced someone who had reached at least the peak of Rank Four.Just as Evan recalled a few things about the Glaciferns and was thinking about the kind of danger that might be lurking on the other end of the portal, which gave him such a strong sense of crisis, he felt many portals opening in different places all across the Earth.
"Valery, you're an S+ Rank hunter, right? Contact your hunter comrades and tell them not to approach the portals that are opening all over the Earth," He said in a serious voice, looking at the silver-haired woman standing behind him.
"Portals..." Valery's expression changed when she heard Evan. "You mean there is more than one portal similar to this one?"
"Yes, tell them not to approach the portals if they don't want to die."
Rumble!
As Evan finished speaking, the Earth once again started to shake, this time more intensely than before.
Powerful auras, similar to Shaldik's rose from different directions and the entire planet went into complete turmoil.
"Damn, what kind of lunatics did that moron Winterclaw send here? Do these people want to destroy the entire planet?" Evan cursed as he felt the powerful auras emanating from different directions and released Zorda and his other shadow undeads.
"Capture those bastards and bring them here," Evan said in a cold voice and nearly one hundred of his shadow undeads immediately disappeared.
At the same time, Valery also used her bracelet to contact the high officials of the Federation, informing them not to approach the portals.
While his shadow undeads left to capture the people who emerged from the portals and Valery was communicating with the other hunters, Evan approached Shaldik.
"Are you going to speak on your own, or do you want special treatment before you start talking about why you're here and what you want to do?"
Hearing Evan, Shaldik didn't say anything and just stared at him with cold eyes.
Under normal circumstances, Evan would have instantly killed him and turned him into a shadow undead to extract all the information he wanted, but currently, he was concerned that if he killed Shaldik or any other people who came from Glacialheim, it would alert Winterclaw, potentially leading to bigger trouble.
Although it is difficult for high level beings to come to a lower world like Earth, it doesn't mean it's impossible.
If he killed Shaldik and Winterclaw discovered there was someone capable of killing the Rank Two Core Evolvers he had just sent, he might use high-level resources to send a high-level Core Evolver to Earth.
Even if Evan could defend himself against a Rank Four Core Evolver, he didn't want to face one without good reason.
The main reason for this was that Earth wouldn't be able to withstand the pressure of a battle between high-level Core Evolvers and he wanted to avoid such a situation.
But when he saw the cold look on Shaldik's face after asking his question, he knew that this guy wouldn't tell him anything.
"It seems you will not be telling me anything…" Evan muttered in a low voice and suddenly, the gravity field that had trapped Shaldik disappeared.
The moment the gravity field vanished, Shaldik's eyes flashed, and he tried to attack Evan, but before he could...
"Since you don't want to tell me, I'll find out for myself…" His face was grabbed by a powerful hand, and he heard a cold, chilling voice that sent a shiver down his spine.
"Soul Search!"
"Arghhhh," Shaldik roared in pain as he felt as if thousands of ants were eating away at his soul.
Evan closed his eyes and searched for the information he was looking for.
Valery, who had been talking to high-level hunters and instructing them not to approach the portals was startled when she heard Shaldik's painful scream and looked behind with a stunned expression.
'He became so powerful in such a short time…' She thought, recalling the terrifying aura Shaldik had emitted when he first emerged from the portal.
When she had felt Shaldik's aura earlier, it had been like a heavy mountain, but in front of Evan, this guy couldn't even resist.
Evan sifted through Shaldik's memories and after a minute, he finally found what he was looking for.
After getting what he wanted, like a piece of garbage, he tossed aside Shaldik, whose tongue was now hanging out of his mouth and who looked like a mentally ill person.
"So, my guess was correct, huh…" Evan muttered with narrowed eyes. "These guys were sent here by Winterclaw and their task is to capture Valery and bring her back alive."
As Evan spoke, he pulled out a small, blue-coloured crystal from Shaldik's storage ring. As he took out the crystal, it shone brightly, and a faint energy wave emanated from it, guiding him toward Valery.
At the same time, from Shaldik's memories, he also discovered that there was a Peak Rank Five Core Evolver on the other end of the portal. If he had used his spiritual senses earlier to observe the situation on the other side, he would have been detected by this powerful being.
"These guys have no idea what this crystal is, nor do they know why they have to capture the person indicated by it..." Evan said as his spiritual senses scanned the blue crystal he had taken out from Shaldik's storage ring.
As he scanned it, Evan's eyes narrowed because he sensed a strong spiritual aura sealed within the crystal. At the same time, this spiritual aura had powerful fluctuations similar to those of a monarch core, indicating that the spiritual energy sealed inside belonged to Winterclaw.
"But why is this strong spiritual aura that belongs to Winterclaw reacting to Valery..." Evan muttered under his breath and as he thought about what Valery had told him about her dreams and all the events that had transpired, his eyes widened and an absurd possibility came to mind.
