Dawn broke.
But Ninggu City remained dark.
A dark-blue haze hung over the city like an enormous lid, sealed tightly overhead.
The fog was so dense it seemed tangible, wrapping around the entire city. The outline of the city walls flickered in and out of view through the mist, like some gigantic beast drowned in deep water, with only its blurred spine exposed.
No one knew what had happened inside the city.
The night before, sounds could still be heard coming from within, and occasional Supernatural Fluctuations shot into the sky, making even the ground tremble.
But in the latter half of the night...
Every sound vanished.
The surviving remnants of the allied army outside the city stared at the city shrouded in fog.
Every face was filled with confusion and terror.
A few bold scouts tried to approach the walls and investigate, but the instant they reached the edge of the mist, they let out shrill screams and died on the spot.
"It's over!"
"Something terrible has happened!"
Several Special Ability Users muttered under their breaths, their faces pale.
The four great families.
Had mobilized every last one of their forces.
Now that Ninggu City had undergone such a change, several Great Sirs and Masters still had not emerged!
They had a premonition.
This matter...
Had blown the sky wide open!
News of Ninggu City losing contact spread throughout the entire northern Supernatural Circle the next day.
Then to the south.
Then across the entire realm.
Before long.
Its impact was no longer limited to the Supernatural Circle and began spreading through the world of ordinary people.
Countless newspapers and magazines.
Published lengthy reports on Ninggu City.
Causing an enormous uproar!
