Chapter 1247  What Is She Doing Here?

Utopia – Dark Forest....

In the outer area of the Dark Forest, a silver light flashed, and a grey-haired man with a lazy expression—as though he wanted nothing more than to lie down and sleep—appeared, holding an ice cocoon in his arms.

Evan, who had changed his appearance before being sent to Utopia by the spirit of the Tower of Ascension looked at the familiar forest, filled with towering trees that reached high into the sky and took a deep breath, feeling an unexpected sense of familiarity.

After leaving Earth, he had found himself within the Tower of Ascension, where the spirit of the Tower directly asked him where he wished to be sent. Since it gave him the option, he chose the Dark Forest without hesitation.

Before being sent, Evan changed his appearance into the one he had used during his earlier time in the Tomb of the Ancient.

While the earring Anastasia had given him can shield his presence, making it impossible for anyone to locate him using artefacts or skills, there is still the risk of being seen by other people upon his arrival.

If anyone recognized him in the Dark Forest, it would inevitably lead to trouble.

After the events in the Tomb of the Ancient—especially where he killed nearly all the top-level figures from other factions who entered the Tomb—many people are searching for him.

To avoid unnecessary problems, he decided to change his appearance before the spirit sent him to the Dark Forest.

"This place is far better than that prison."

Velgoth's excited voice suddenly broke through Evan's thoughts.

He glanced at the Eldritch creature from the corner of his eye and noticed his eyes were shining.

'Well, this place is indeed better for these Eldritch creatures,' Evan thought. 'Unlike me, who could clearly sense all the concepts in the Azragoth World and increase my understanding of conceptual energy, these creatures couldn't do the same.'

"Can you feel the concepts here freely?" Evan asked Velgoth.

"Yes, but with all my powers sealed, I can't determine the exact difference," Velgoth replied, his tone filled with expectation. "Can you remove the seal on my powers?"

Evan smiled faintly at the request and continued walking deeper into the Dark Forest.

"Just wait a few minutes. I will remove the seal once we reach our destination."

Although Evan was confident Velgoth wouldn't dare to flee even if the seal was removed, he didn't want to take any unnecessary risks.

Velgoth was a Rank Five Core Evolver, and most of Evan's Authorities that could help him fight against such a powerful being were still on cooldown.

If he were to release Velgoth's seal now and the creature decided to escape, he wouldn't be able to stop him, even with the assistance of his shadow undeads.

However, once they entered the Closed World of the Dryads, this problem would be resolved easily.

There are several big bosses in the Closed World who can annihilate Velgoth with a mere flick if he attempts anything reckless.

Velgoth looked distressed when Evan didn't immediately lift the seal but knew he was powerless to argue.

Left with no other choice, he followed closely behind Evan.

Even with his powers sealed, Velgoth could sense that the forest they were in was far from ordinary. Many dangers lurked within its depths, and without his abilities, he was as vulnerable as a normal human here. If he strayed too far from Evan and encountered a monster, his life in Utopia would be over before it had even begun.

Unlike Velgoth, Evan was completely at ease. With his current strength, even the inner areas of the Dark Forest posed no real threat to him, let alone the outer regions.

Only the monsters from the central area could provide a challenge. Even then, with the help of his shadow undeads, he was confident he could either handle them or escape.

Moreover, all the high-level monsters in the Dark Forest were Alaric's subordinates. If Evan encountered any of them, all he had to do was mention Alaric's name to avoid trouble.

As he strolled along, Evan began whistling in a carefree manner. Now that he was back in the Dark Forest—where he could rely on the help of three Rank Six Core Evolvers (Anastasia, Sylvan, and Alaric) in case of trouble—he felt genuinely happy.

Reflecting on the series of challenges he had faced since leaving the Closed World of the Dryads to venture into the Forbidden Land, Evan felt his scalp tingle.

The thought made him resolve to bring Anastasia along wherever he went in the future. Her presence would allow him to deal with any problems until he reached Rank Five or even Rank Six as a Core Evolver.

"Other than focusing on increasing my rank as quickly as possible to complete the second level of Blood Assimilation, I also need to think of a way to deal with Eilistraea, who can show up to cause trouble at any moment…" Evan muttered grimly, recalling Elysia's warning.

She had told him that summoning the phantom of the Tree of Life would have consequences, one of which was dealing with Eilistraea.

"I just hope it takes her some time to locate Elysia, who established the connection with the Tree of Life," Evan murmured, silently praying for more time as he entered the inner area of the Dark Forest.

Within the inner region of the forest, he knew there were numerous hidden teleportation formations installed by Ashley. These formations allowed access to the Closed World of the Dryads.

Guiding Velgoth toward the location of one such hidden formation, Evan suddenly heard the sounds of fighting coming from a short distance away.

Frowning, he stopped as he couldn't risk using the teleportation formation while others were nearby, as it might expose its existence and cause trouble for the Dryads.

After a moment of consideration, Evan activated his spiritual senses to investigate who was fighting and what he saw caused a flicker of surprise to cross his face.

"What is she doing here?"
