Chapter 1244 Blood Token (Part 2)
Evan thought about the memories he can unlock by climbing the Bloodline Inheritance Steps, and his eyes grew firm with resolve.
However, when he recalled that the memory he had just seen was revealed because he had completed the first level of Bloodline Assimilation, his mouth couldn't help but twitch.
'Do I need to complete the second Bloodline Assimilation to see another memory recorded in the steps?' He muttered under his breath, feeling distressed at the thought of having to climb a million steps just to initiate the second level of Bloodline Assimilation.
"I should stop thinking about it, or I might go crazy," Evan finally said, shaking his head to clear his thoughts and turn his attention back to the black figure.
"Since when has that bulky guyâMythrenor's essence cloneâbeen on Earth? And were you working with him?"
The black figure seemed slightly embarrassed at Evan's question and shook its head.
"I actually don't know when or how he came to Earth," It admitted. "Although I am the Will of Earth, I can't actively monitor every single person on the planet..." The figure paused before continuing.
"As for whether I was working with him, the answer is no. When the problem of the Eldritch Creatures arose, I needed someone to act as a liaison with the hunters on Earth. I wanted someone to keep me in touch with them so that I could alert them immediately if any issues related to the Eldritch Creatures came up. So, I chose the strongest hunter on Earth at that time to become my spokesperson and connect me with the others."
Evan's mouth twitched slightly when he heard this explanation and he asked in a speechless voice, "And the strongest hunter you chose just happened to be Mythrenor's essence clone?"
"I didn't know he was Mythrenor's essence clone," The black figure replied defensively. "Before you arrived on Earth, he didn't display any abnormalities. It was only after you came to Earth that he revealed his true nature."
"Are you sure he is in Utopia?" Evan asked, his voice serious.
"One hundred percent," The black figure replied confidently. "To come to Earth from the Origin Universe, one would need to open a World Passage, similar to the one the Eldritch Creatures were trying to open. Something like that would be impossible to hide from me. The only way Mythrenor could have entered Earth without my knowledge is through Utopia. Although there are many restrictions preventing people from Utopia from descending to lower worlds, there are still a few loopholes that can be exploited."
Evan nodded thoughtfully, recalling the high-level individuals Winterclaw occasionally sent to Earth, despite the general prohibition on powerful beings descending to lower worlds.
"Do you have any idea of his approximate strength?" Evan asked after a moment of silence.
The black figure shook its head. "I am so weak that I couldn't even defeat his essence clone. How can someone like me judge the strength of his true body?"
Evan frowned at this but didn't say anything as the black figure was right.
'I wonder if he is stronger than Anastasia...' Evan thought to himself, shaking his head to dispel the thought.
After asking a few more questions, most of which the black figure answered, Evan noticed the black figure suddenly toss a red token toward him. The token bore an image of a staircase leading into the sky, intricately engraved on its surface.
Evan caught the token and examined it closely.
"What is this?" He asked the black figure, finding nothing immediately remarkable about it.
"One of your rewards for completing the tasks in Azragoth World."
