Necromancer Of The Shadows

Chapter 741 Mechadroids

?Star City is one of the largest cities in the world, covering an area of approximately five hundred thousand kilometres. There are a total of sixteen entrances to enter the city— four in each direction.

From these sixteen entrances, millions of people enter and exit Star City every day. Thinking about the number of essence stones that the people controlling Star City earn just by collecting entrance fees, Evan felt his heart burn with jealousy.

He also wanted to receive free essence stones from millions of people without doing anything.

While feeling jealous, he followed behind Cedar and entered the city. Upon entering the city, Evan and Cedar couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

Although Cedar knew about Star City because of the experience crystal that Sylvan had used on him, it was still his first time seeing a city outside the closed world of the Dryads with his own eyes, so he was naturally surprised. Meanwhile, Evan was surprised because of what he saw the moment he entered the city.

"What the hell is going on here?" Evan asked himself with a dazed look on his face as he watched people of the different kinds of races riding hovercars and other vehicles that looked like they came from a futuristic world. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novelenglish.net . Firᴇ(.)nᴇt

'I thought I would see people riding expensive-looking carriages pulled by high-level monsters, but this...' Evan thought, looking back at the entrance of the city, and wondered if he had perhaps travelled to a different world after passing through the city gate.

Just as Evan was still reeling from the sudden change in environment, he heard a loud noise emanating from the depths of the city. He turned to look in the direction of the noise, and his eyes widened in disbelief.

"That's..." Evan watched with his eyes wide open as a giant black airship, hundreds of meters long, ascended into the blue sky and immediately turned into a streak of black light, disappearing from his view at a speed so fast that his eyes couldn't follow its movements even with his current power.

"That was a Rank Three high-level airship," Evan heard Cedar's voice and saw him looking in the direction where the airship had just disappeared with an envious look on his face.

Hearing what Cedar said, Evan finally realized that these futuristic-looking things seemed to be quite normal in Utopia.

'I thought Utopia would be far behind in terms of technological progress, as most of the people here can use skills and artefacts to make up for all the things that they need,' Evan thought inwardly and looked at Cedar.

"Hey Cedar, is the technological advancement in Utopia very high?" Evan asked, looking at the stylish hovercars as both of them strolled in the city.

"Hmmm?" Cedar was looking around with a look of interest on his face when he heard Evan's question.

Hearing his question, Cedar stopped looking around and nodded his head.

"Because of the Mechadroids Race, the technological advancement in Utopia is very high. They can create the things that can even make Disaster Class existence drool..."

Cedar paused after saying this, then added after a moment. "According to Grandpa Sylvan, the top creators of the Mechadroids Race can even create weapons with a power level similar to that of a World Class Expert. Even the airship that you just saw a moment ago was created by them."

'Mechadroids...' Evan frowned, feeling as if he had heard about them somewhere before. Suddenly, a look of realization flashed in his eyes, and he finally remembered where he had heard about them.

'In the dream in which I saw Anastasia for the first time...' Evan said inwardly, remembering how some of the people of Mechadroids Race were also killed by the Shadow Monarch in that dream. (Chp-366)

'Man, I'll need to be careful while using my shadow undeads. Otherwise, if people who have a grudge against the Shadow Monarch recognize them, they'll be coming for my neck,' Evan thought with a speechless look on his face.

"By the way, you just said the level of the airship that just flew away was High Grade Rank Three. Does it mean Mechadroids can even make Rank Four and even Rank Five airships that are on par with the speed of Disaster Class beings?" Evan suddenly asked with a curious look on his face.

"Of course they can. In fact, if you provide them with enough resources and pay them dearly, they can even make a Rank Six airship," Cedar said without any hesitation.

He paused and added after a moment. "Although the resources needed in order to create a Rank Five and Rank Six airship are something that even an Empire Level faction might not be able to collect easily."

Evan nodded his head hearing Cedar and didn't ask anything else. He is the fated boyfriend of the poverty, so there is no way he can afford things that even empire-level factions find difficult to acquire. Continuing to dwell on these matters will only torment him further.

Soon Evan and Cedar arrived in the market area of the city.

"You want to buy rank one herbs, right?" Cedar asked once they arrived at the market area.

"Yes," Evan nodded and took out a list from his storage ring. "Other than the herbs, I need these materials as well."

Cedar looked at the names of the materials on Evan's list and raised an eyebrow.

--) 1 kg Dracorium, 200 grams Eldrite, 2 Soul Blood Crystals, 3 Beginner Level Rank One Monster Cores.

---) 5 Mid Level Rank One Monster Cores, 10 grams of Arcanite, One Space Stone, Two Drops Of Time Water.

After reading the names of the material, Cedar looked at Evan with a strange look on his face.

"I know about most of the materials on the list. Monster Cores, Arcanite, Eldrite, and Dracorium are fine, but the other materials..." He said and shook his head. "I don't think you will be able to find them as they are very rare, and most people don't sell them in shops."

Although Evan already expected this, he still couldn't help but frown upon hearing Cedar. After a moment of silence, his expression returned to normal and he said in a calm voice.

"Let's think about those rare materials later. We should focus on what we can obtain first."
