The Royal City still seemed very lively at night, obviously more vibrant than other towns.

Wang Yu followed Qi Ge's steps and walked on the streets of the royal city. He looked around strangely.

I still remember the weird atmosphere at night when I first came to the Royal City. It seemed that something strange was hidden in the shadow of the building, and the dead silence was watching Wang Yu and Aviya maliciously.

It wasn't until Captain Shugeyin appeared that the lantern in his hand dispelled the weird feeling.

Looking at the lantern in his hand, the lantern delivered by Sieg was not lit at the moment.

After taking a closer look at the surroundings, although it was still lively and there were many pedestrians, the darkness of night still enveloped a large area. Wang Yu did not see the same feeling from those shadows as when he came to the royal city on the first day.

If you have any questions, ask them. This is Wang Yu's habit. He directly stated his questions.

"Well, this is one of your duties as a night watchman. As a night watchman, you have to use this lantern to drive away those dark things."

"As a city with a large population, the Royal City cannot count the number of people with various talents. We may not know which civilian's son has the wizard's talent, or which blacksmith's daughter has the mage's talent."

"These people may not have been discovered, but their talents will still be revealed, maybe in their sleep, maybe when they are emotionally excited, or when they are influenced by evil gods..."

"Spiritual power, the mental power of those with talents, and even the mental power of the large number of people without talents, is flowing all the time."

"Normally speaking, a person's mental power cannot directly affect reality. It needs a carrier."

"But when the quantity reaches a limit, thousands, or even tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, or even millions, these quantitative changes will cause a qualitative change in the overflowing spiritual power."

"The Royal City is such a place. Its population has reached a limit. This limit has caused a qualitative change in mental power."

When Sieg said this, he pointed to the sky, "Do you know what else is there besides the sky?"

"I don't know." Wang Yu wanted to answer the universe, but he still answered honestly, "I don't know." He knew very well that this was not what Qiege wanted him to know.

"That's an ocean... The spiritual power overflowing from the large population in the Royal City is gathered there. It's an ocean of human spirit, mixed, chaotic, disorderly... ugly..."

"Really?" Wang Yu looked up at the dark night sky. There were no clouds above, and the sky was full of stars. Is there an invisible ocean there?

"In the final analysis, mental power is still mental power. No matter how powerful the mental power is, it cannot directly affect the real world, not even the terrifyingly huge sea of ​​mental power."

"Void..." Wang Yu had already imagined what he was going to say next from Qie Ge's words.

"Yes, void, the essence of void tends towards disorder and chaos. It always pushes the real world into chaos independently, and those with strong mental power are always affected by void. This is void affinity..."

After Wang Yu heard what the professor said, he squinted his eyes and then looked up at the sky again. Is that chaotic sea of ​​spiritual power like a wizard with unimaginably powerful spiritual power? What about void affinity?

"This huge ocean of spiritual power attracts the void, and what the void does is just materialize the "evil" and "darkness" in this ocean."

The Royal City is a prosperous place, but it is also a bad place for some residents here. Struggling, persecution, violence, these ugly things are no different in the Royal City than in other places.

And the malice born from the residents' spirits will be projected into the sea of ​​spiritual power, making this already complex collection of spiritual power even more chaotic and distorted.

During Siege's explanation, Wang Yu also understood the possible horrific consequences of this ocean of spiritual power being exploited by the void.

Most of the beautiful things in the ocean tend towards order and harmony, but the void is contrary to this. It will not materialize these beautiful things, but will remove them bit by bit from this chaotic spirit. Stripped out of the sea of ​​power.

And those ugly things, the violence and cruelty hidden in the hearts of people, may be bound by reality. Those who nurture these ideas cannot put them into reality, but the void will...

Those evil gods born in the void, or other chaotic and disorderly things, also covet these ugly things born from powerful spiritual power, eager to turn them into reality and spread chaos in this royal city.

A hundred ghosts walk at night, and all life is in ruins. Wang Yu used his own imagination to roughly simulate the scene. Well, it is indeed a very scary thing.

However, Zieg's smiling eyes could not capture the nervous or fearful expression on Wang Yu's face. Wang Yu just showed a slight frown unique to a person who is lost in thought.

"So how did you deal with this sea of ​​spiritual power?" Wang Yu was a little confused now. He could not see the sea of ​​chaotic spirit that should exist in the sky.

"Aren't you worried? This thing is like an activated explosive magic trap. It will explode suddenly at some point."

"Aren't you guys living a good life? Logically speaking, that's what we should be dealing with."

Obviously, Wang Yu is not troubled by this. Since the Royal City is in good condition, the Kingdom of Arestle naturally has its own way of dealing with this matter.

So it's not the turn of a pawn like him to worry. It's obvious that if the sky falls, there will be tall people holding it up.

"It seems that it really doesn't scare you. Well, this has something to do with what I'm going to introduce to you next."

The two walked for a while, Zig crossed several streets and then entered an alley.

A not-deep alley soon reached the end, where a wall blocked the two of them.

Sieg stepped forward and slapped the wall with his hand. Familiar spatial fluctuations appeared in the air, and the wall rippled like water waves. The professor walked into the undulating wall, and Wang Yu followed suit.

Walking into it, Wang Yu looked around. This was not a spacious corridor. The walls on both sides were carefully repaired with bricks and stones, which were very solid.

There is no feeling of spatial fluctuation here. Perhaps the only thing involving space is the entrance here.

"The root system, if the "gap" is the passage that runs through the royal city outside of the shadow and reality, this is the passage that surrounds the royal city in reality."

"This passage is hidden between the buildings in the royal city. Opposite the wall that you may think is empty is a branch of this root system."

"The main trunk branches off into countless branches. These roots surround almost all places in the royal city. In addition to taking advantage of the gaps, you also need to be familiar with the root system."

"Of course, the place I want to take you to today has nothing to do with the root system. It just needs to borrow the path of the root system."

Wang Yu remained quiet, simply observing the surroundings while following Qie Ge.

Indeed, as Sieg said, this passage that is not too narrow is very long and full of forks.

There were no pauses or breaks along the way. It was hard to imagine how such a large walkway could be hidden among such huge buildings in the royal city.

Do the residents of the royal city know that there may be soldiers from the kingdom passing by on the opposite side of their walls...

With such a level of construction and operational efficiency, after the kingdoms of this world have extraordinary power as a tool, they are really not inferior to those powerful countries on the earth in some aspects.

There was no light source in the corridor. Wang Yu relied on his inner eye and did not need to use his eyes to see. How Qie Ge saw it was unknown.

After turning a corner, the road widened and began to go down. As the space continued to expand, this place could no longer be called a walkway but should be said to be a hall, and a huge entrance was also revealed inside Wang Yunei. Within the scope of the eye.

Steep stairs extend downward from a huge entrance in the center of this hall, leading to an unknown place underground in this royal city. The depth is unknown, but it is beyond the scope of Wang Yuripple's exploration.

Standing at the edge of the entrance, Wang Yu sensed a familiar feeling. The weird sense of voyeurism and chaos when he arrived at the royal city on the first day. These weird things, from this underground entrance that leads to nowhere, It spreads out, subtle, but tangible.

"Where is this?" Wang Yu asked his question.

"The entrance to the shadow of the royal city."

"King City Shadow?" Wang Yu chewed on the word, but he didn't know what it meant and shook his head.

"If there is anything that is not affected by the void and can in turn affect the void that is huge to a certain extent, then it is only strange objects."

"Is it a strange object? Indeed..." Wang Yu thought for a while and found that it seems that an object like a strange object, which is beyond reality and void, may indeed be able to reverse the extremely terrifying and huge ocean of spiritual power.

"Starry Reflection, this is a strange object controlled by the royal family. It can reverse everything and reverse its nature. The biggest feature of this strange object is to turn everything upside down... and the royal family's choice is to seal this ocean of spiritual power upside down and into the ground. Falling from the high sky into the endless abyss.”

"Wait a minute, if this strange object is really as you said, it shouldn't be done like this. They can completely reverse and peel off those malignant things, or simply use this strange object to remove these mental powers. If you move to another place, there is no need to stay underground in the royal city. Now we still need to restrict and deal with it..."

Wang Yu is still a little confused. Since there is such a strange object, why should he leave this vicious sea of ​​spiritual power under the royal city? Is he just looking for trouble for himself? But since he has done this, there should be a reason. .

"Wang Yu, you have to understand that the use of strange objects is often impossible to be so precise. This thing is beyond reality and void, so how can it truly belong to us? We just found a way to use it. We just The user, even the thief, not the dominator.”

"As for why this ocean of spiritual power was not moved away, there is a very simple reason. This ocean also has its own special value... The value is so great that the royal family must maintain it regardless of risks."

Wang Yu nodded. He indeed took it for granted. Not every strange object is as easy to control as the Phantom Knight's flag and the endless pages. It is still unknown what the price of controlling the reflection of the stars will be.

"Spiritual power is mixed with the void, and the reflection of the stars causes the void affected by the mental power to overlap with reality after being inverted. The shadow of the royal city is actually a very special area, and the boundary between reality and the void is not very clear... Although it is chaotic, it also has its own unique value.”

"Each kingdom has its own trump card and ultimate weapon. One of Aleister's trump cards is the shadow of the royal city where the void and reality blend. When the reflection of stars stops, this area is manipulated and transformed by the royal family. Hundreds of years of space are reversed, and the royal family’s ultimate weapon, the “Skeleton of the End God,” will also appear…”

Having said this, Sieg paused for a moment, and then smiled, "You may have said meaningless words after hearing the ultimate weapon. This is also one of the things in the confidentiality agreement. Your authority is not enough to know enough. Anyway, as long as you understand these, the authority of the special operations group is still very high, other than these, everything else is fine."

Wang Yu raised his eyebrows. He didn't hear any so-called meaningless words. The contract really had no effect on him. This was not a bad thing. Wang Yu didn't say anything.

"Then, welcome to the place where you will need to work for a long time, the shadow of Wangcheng, the shadow of Wangcheng." The professor did not continue to explain, and the pace of the two people never stopped while talking.

When the stairs reached the end, a huge and dark underground space appeared in front of Wang Yu and Qi Ge.

The top is a sky made of stones and soil. There is nothing to illuminate it, only some sporadic luminous objects as lighting points. It looks a bit like the sparse stars at night when the moon is sparse.

In front of his eyes, an underground city with dim lighting that was still visible appeared within Wang Yu's field of vision.

Complex buildings, relying on various bulges and pits in the underground space, countless scattered and complicated buildings are distributed like a honeycomb, and various walkways and tunnels run through this complex and chaotic building complex.

In the dim light, a large number of people shuttled between this extremely complex and even maze-like building. They were familiar with the roads and seemed to be accustomed to this slightly chaotic space. They were part of the composition of this space.

Chaotic, prosperous, and complex, but containing its own beauty, this underground space is absolutely no less prosperous and advanced than the royal city above the surface. Because it has its own rules, it can also have its own unique form.

"The shadow of Wangcheng is a place of chaos. Wangcheng chose to manage it to a certain extent in a free-range manner to achieve special development under a free pattern, so as to maximize the use of the special spatial properties here."

"Can you feel it?"

"Well..." Wang Yu stared at the palm of his hand. The space there showed a kind of wave motion, which was his own ability, ripples.

He has already felt the specialness of this area. The void is mixed with reality, and the chaos of the void is also contained in the space.

After the ripples blessed by the void spread out, they not only made the ripples farther and stronger, but correspondingly, because the void merged into reality, its invisible ripples also became visible.

"This is not a good thing." Wang Yu frowned. The concealment of ripples is a very important part. If this is the case...

"Wang Yu, I have to remind you that you have to pay attention to your observation ability. Don't open it all the time. It's not necessary. It's best not to release it, because I, for example, will not feel the slight void caused by your ability. The fluctuations can be felt, and if you peek at them at will, you are likely to be observed in turn."

"It's really not obvious to the outside world, but now, you can see it yourself, right? You have to pay attention."

Before Wang Yu could finish thinking, he was interrupted by Siege's reminder.

"This..." Wang Yu was stunned. Could his special and even somewhat similar plug-in ability, Ripple, be detectable? It was just that he had never encountered an opponent who was powerful enough to detect it.

I am somewhat disappointed. This somewhat special ability of mine was not much in the first place. I used to regard this as one of my advantages, but now it seems that it is not much in any way.

No, Void Waves, it is true that one's own ripples can spread farther after being blessed by the Void, but essentially it can be released without the Void, but the distance will be greatly limited, then...

Wang Yu approached Siege, and the ripples were released again. This time, without borrowing the power of the void, the scope of the ripples became a sphere with a radius of only two meters.

"Professor, can you still feel the fluctuations now?"

"No more, what? Oh..." Sieg blinked and nodded knowingly.

Wang Yu smiled. He liked teammates with strong understanding.

He doesn't know exactly what role the void plays in his secret power, and now is not the time to find out. So now it's time to get to work. A long time of work will be related to this chaotic underground city. Wangcheng is dark. Movie, I’m still a little curious and looking forward to it...
