They came from the gutters, turning the kingdom into their land.
Unextinguishable and undying, as long as there was darkness, they could regenerate infinitely. They were immensely hungry, craving all beings with Spiritual Power.
Just after seven nights, the kingdom of hundreds of thousands became a wasteland, a grand civilization reduced to desolate ruins.
And now, this terrifying existence from another world, is coveting this extremely rich island, coveting your spiritually rich bodies.] Read exclusive adventures at My Virtual Library Empire
[They come again from another world, desiring to devour you humans to the last!]
A very special red alert flashed in everyone's mind.
This is a B-rank crack! Chen Qi clenched his long knife, trembling with excitement.
This was his first challenge of a B-rank crack since he came to this world.
At that moment, the conditions for passing the challenge suddenly popped up.
[Condition for passing: Survive the Shadow Tide Night!
Additional condition for passing: Defeat the Shadow Beast tide.]
[Reminder: If the Shadow Beast tide is not defeated during the day, the entire human island will become part of the crack and will be deemed a world of bad soil that must be cut away.]
To pass as long as one is alive, what a simple condition... Chen Qi looked at his inspiration.
[You have gained inspiration: Special knowledge of Shadow Tide Night, Shadow Hand, Pitch-Black Night, and Spread of Fear.]
[Shadow Hand: In the land of darkness, shadow beasts of darkness will continuously emerge. Besides them, there is also a kind of weak Shadow Hand. They are incredibly frail with an extremely low presence but can silently extinguish the light sources nearby you.]
[Pitch-Black Night: On this night, darkness will possess a strong visual and inspiration-blocking effect. At the same time, light will also become dimmer in the night.]
[Spread of Fear: In the darkness, shadow beasts will absorb the power of fear and use it to evolve themselves, becoming even stronger. At the same time, once fear for the shadow beasts is felt, it will be absorbed by them.]
[Your Lamp Phase is triggered! You gain an additional special inspiration!]
[Shadow Weaver: Within that dense tide, you seem to see a giant creature with deer antlers sitting quietly at a long table and slowly walking into the town.]
Four inspirations... Chen Qi fell into contemplation.
The tall youth of the White Tower was startled and spoke out all three inspirations he had received—"Shadow Hand," "Pitch-Black Night," and "Spread of Fear":
"Brothers! Look at me, I am a Hunter of the White Tower. Listen to me, as I announce the additional rules of the crack! We are in the midst of the crack, facing special monsters that will extinguish our lights!"
"Also, do not feel fear at all costs; your fear will be absorbed by the shadow beasts, making them even stronger."
Normally, inspiration would be the secret of Transcendents.
But at this moment, the oppressive feeling brought by the B-rank crack made them put aside their selfishness to fight the monsters with all their might!
This information about the three inspirations was crucial.
Chen Qi listened quietly to the words of the young man from the White Tower and glanced at his own inspiration.
The Transcendents of the White Tower were known for their inspiration, but in his words, he didn't mention the "Shadow Weaver."
This is my unique inspiration... Chen Qi thought to himself.
Those who followed the principles of the Lantern, and whose inspiration was high enough, could not only predict crises but also had a very small chance of gaining extremely special inspirations inside the crack.
And the Shadow Weaver was a crucial inspiration.
Chen Qi was deeply impressed with this monster.
In the game forums, it was one of the few neutral shadow creature beings that appeared only in pure shadow cracks. As long as a task was completed, it could help players forge exceptionally special shadow equipment.
It could bestow formidable shadow enhancements to all equipment! Moreover, it even sold pure shadow Third Rank profession cards "Shadow Demon," and even Fourth Rank Legendary profession cards.
An extremely rare NPC indeed!
Chen Qi couldn't help but be excited; he had hit the jackpot with this Shadow Tide.
But according to his inspiration, did the Shadow Weaver appear in the town?
Because of the Shadow Tide, most defensive measures were set up at the dock.
Were these monsters taking a detour?
Chen Qi turned back and looked down the streets of Sea God Island.
The area of Sea God Island was composed of two parts: the first part, the town, and the second part, the research area of the Sea God Pirate Group.
The research area was where the pirates lived and conducted various experiments of the Sea God Pirate Group, as well as the secret passage to their real major base.
As for the town area, it was very monotonous. Occupying one-third of Sea God Island, besides Hunters, there were tens of thousands of ordinary residents who just did mundane jobs, striving to live their lives and were ordinary people worshiping the Sea Goddess.
In the face of shadow beasts, they were natural providers of fear fuel.
The town area of Sea God Island was not well-defended. Compared to the middle area, the defenses of the dock and the research area were many times stronger.
I must take a walk in the town... Chen Qi set a simple goal for himself.
The clouds in the sky grew denser and formed a massive Shadow Hand.
At that moment, the final hint of the crack appeared.
[The night has fallen.]
Accompanied by a faint click, within Sea God Island, the lightbulbs of the world, the sunlight suspended high in the sky, seemed to be snuffed out by an obscure hand and were instantly enveloped in shadows.
The range of light from the high-efficiency lantern that could illuminate a hundred meters shrank rapidly, becoming dim and reducing to within ten meters.
"Where the hell is my sunlight?"
"Why has the range of my lantern light source been reduced to only three meters!!"
