Chapter 19: The City of Shadows

Eyes of Truth!

More precisely, it was a projection of the Eye of Truth's energy projected onto the Blue Star after being summoned.

But...... What is the Eye of Truth?

A cosmic treasure that can give people knowledge?

Su Li, who only got the "name" information about the black shadow, could only guess like this. After guessing for a long time, he was not sure, and he sorted out the other knowledge he had just gained, but his expression became strange.

Because although the knowledge he has acquired is not much, it is related to the current state of the universe, and there are several in total.

(1) The Star Federation is an alliance composed of multiple cosmic-level civilizations in the known universe, established after the end of the Dark Exploration Calendar.

(2) The Star Federation will provide protection for known nascent civilizations (surface-level civilizations), and ensure that the development of nascent civilizations will not be interfered with by other advanced civilizations as much as possible.

(3) The elves belong to the cosmic-level civilization, and they are also a member of the Star Alliance, and they are one of the three giants of the Star Alliance.

Although Su Li did not gain any other knowledge other than these three articles, there is no doubt that these three articles are of great value to Su Li, at least giving him a preliminary understanding of the current situation of the universe.

Is this a coincidence?

Su Li glanced at the black eyes in the air that were dissipating and no longer had the function of giving people knowledge, and then shook his head.

He didn't believe it was a coincidence, and if it was, how could the knowledge he had gained happen to be what he wanted to know recently!

So...... Is it the Eye of Truth that gives the contact knowledge in a targeted manner?

Su Li was thoughtful.

But fortunately, he didn't dwell on this issue for long, and then looked at the Filmmaker Queen.

The Shadow Queen's face was pale at this time, and even the shadow under her feet was much lighter at this time, and it was obvious that summoning the energy projection of the Eye of Truth would cost her a huge price.

This is just Su Li's superficial observation, in fact, if Su Li can directly observe the essence of the Shadow Queen, he will find that the remnant of the Shadow Queen's fragment ability, which is the core of energy, is a full two-thirds smaller than the original at this moment.

However, despite the great price, the Shadow Queen's pale face had a satisfied smile, and it was clear that as the summoner of the Eye of Truth projection, she also got the information she wanted.

"Human ...... Hehe! ”

The Shadow Queen seemed to have thought of something interesting, and laughed lowly.

Seeing this, Su Li next to him couldn't help frowning, he had a bad premonition.

No, there must be a not-so-good premonition! After all, the queen of the shadow man is obviously done for the filmmaker, and what is beneficial to the filmmaker is not easy to say for humans.

Just when Su Li was guessing what the Shadow Queen wanted to do, the system's prompt finally sounded again.

[The energy remnants of the fragments of the treasures of the unknown universe can not only infect the shadow people, it also carries some knowledge. And on the seventeenth day of humanity's cleanup of the Shadow Figure, the Shadow Queen finally got the way to summon the Eye of Truth projection from the energy remnant. 】

[In order to invade the Blue Star more quickly, the Shadow Queen chose to summon the projection of the Eye of Truth, so as to obtain the knowledge she wanted. And after paying a huge price, she succeeded. 】

[Three days later, the City of Shadows was established. 】

Time sped up again, and this time the three times only gave Su Li a few pictures. By the time time had stopped, he was above a bustling city.

This is obviously no longer in the territory of Xia Kingdom, Su Li turned his gaze a few times with a confused face, and finally fixed his gaze on a certain stone statue of a woman holding a torch, and suddenly realized.

It turned out to be a city that never sleeps!

Wait a while, the system prompts "The first Shadow City is established", but he opened his perspective in the City that never sleeps?

Su Li raised his eyebrows, and he had already understood what this meant in a second, and his expression was strange for a moment, and then he frowned again, and began to pay attention to the situation in the city that never sleeps.

Just like the urine of the system in the past, the city that never sleeps is still so far that people can't see anything wrong, but Su Li, who understands the system, knows that since his perspective has been pulled over, then the change must be a matter of a few minutes.

Sure enough, after Su Li admired the exotic scenery for a few minutes, something happened happened!

Shadows poured out of every inch of the ground of the city that never sleeps without warning, covering the entire city in a matter of minutes. From Su Xiu's point of view, the city that never sleeps at this moment seems to be marked with a black shadow filter, which seems depressing and dangerous.

"What's that?"

"Is this a shadow?"

"My God, is this a demon coming to earth?"

"Help!"

For this sudden and undisguised change, the people of the city that never sleeps will naturally not be unaware. Countless people looked at the reason for the ground in amazement, some were stunned, some were overwhelmed, and some quickly jumped onto the roof of the parked car next to them.

Many of the vehicles that were driving on the road also chose to brake at this time, and some people even caused a New Year's disaster, and the traffic in the city that never sleeps fell into chaos for a while.

"Hello, human!"

The words are round in Chinese, from the car radio, from the big screen that is usually used to broadcast advertisements on buildings, from every computer or television that is being used.

Su Li looked at the big screen on a building, and saw that it was the queen of the shadows. It's just that at this time, the state of the Shadow Queen is more special, not a pure human state, nor is it in a shadow state, but more like something in between.

Her body is still human, but there are dark shadows churning on it, and the smoke envelops her, and the Queen of Shadows at this time looks like a dark boss.

And after attracting the attention of most people with one sentence, the queen of the filmmakers continued:

"Introduce yourself, I'm Shadow, you can call me Shadow Queen."

"The reason why I'm here today is to tell you something."

"Rejoice, human, you are about to become my subjects!"

As soon as these words came out, the crowd exploded instantly, most of them looked at the shadow queen on the screen they could see with disbelief all the time, and a few people looked confused or frightened.

"Hehe......"

Although she spoke through the screen, the Shadow Queen seemed to have guessed the reaction of the people of Sleepless City, she laughed presumptuously, and then said: "Don't be surprised, don't panic, you just need to accept the reality." ”

As if a switch had been flipped up, the otherwise calm shadows on the ground suddenly rolled up, and then wrapped towards the humans in the shadows.

Countless people were caught off guard by the shadows in this consternation, and even if a few of them had jumped to a high place before, the shadows also spread upwards with time, and it was not a matter of time before they swallowed them.

Ordinary people have no power to resist at this time, even the extraordinary, they can resist the initial invasion, only to be engulfed by more and more shadows later.

In just ten minutes before and after, the entire city that never sleeps was already shrouded in shadows, and only a cloud of darkness could be seen from Su Li's angle.

At the same time, the city is terrible in silence at this moment.
