The organization I founded has been exposed by the reborn!

"boom!"

Just as the envelope was torn open.

The warm, bright lights in the study suddenly went out without warning!

Moreover, all the smart electronic devices, backup power supplies, and even the mechanical clocks on the walls of the entire courtyard house were completely paralyzed and rendered lifeless in that instant.

Darkness surged forth like a burst dam, instantly engulfing the entire room.

This blackness is not the kind of blackness that lacks light, but a suffocating, thick shadow that seems to devour even photons.

Before Qin Xinran could recover from her shock...

She then felt a slippery, strange sensation between her hands.

Looking down, I saw that the black invitation had melted away in the darkness!

It transformed into a pool of viscous, pure, flowing shadows that seemed to possess life.

The shadows, like black venomous snakes, spread wildly from Qin Xinran's slender fingertips toward her arms, shoulders, and even her entire body!

"Ugh...!"

Qin Xinran's pupils contracted sharply, she clenched her teeth tightly, and let out a painful groan.

cold.

It was unbelievably cold!

It was a terrifying, bone-chilling cold that seemed to freeze even the soul.

This shadow energy ignored her physical defenses, directly entering her blood vessels through her pores and frantically washing over her limbs and bones.

By the faint moonlight filtering in through the window, Qin Xinran was horrified to see that the originally bluish veins on her arms had all turned into an eerie pure black.

A thin layer of black frost had even formed on the surface of his fair skin, exuding a chilling aura that kept strangers at bay.

……

I don't know how much time has passed.

Just as Qin Xinran felt her consciousness was about to be completely frozen and shattered by this extreme cold.

The Dawn Contract has been reached.

[Primal energy infusion in progress... Potential level assessed: Five stars.]

[Ability awakening in progress...]

A grand, cold, and vast voice exploded directly into the depths of Qin Xinran's soul!

The voice carried an inviolable power of supreme law, instantly stabilizing Qin Xinran's collapsing consciousness.

The next second, the scene in the study completely changed.

In Qin Xinran's perception, everything around her seemed to be playing at an extremely slow pace.

Desk, bookshelves, floor-to-ceiling windows, expensive rosewood chairs... all the physical objects began to peel away and fade rapidly in her eyes, eventually turning into a monotonous world composed of pure black and gray.

In this gray and white world, the most chilling scene unfolded.

The shadows that had been lying quietly in the corner, clinging to the inanimate objects, suddenly all "stood up" at this moment!

The shadow of the bookshelf twisted and stretched, while the shadow of the chair danced silently.

They broke free from the constraints of optics, transforming into blurry black silhouettes.

Then, like loyal subjects who have witnessed the arrival of their king, these shadows surrounded Qin Xinran, bending slightly and emitting silent cheers and worship.

"Click click click..."

A dull, soft sound came from the bones inside Qin Xinran's body.

Under the forceful infusion and transformation of that immense shadow energy, her originally fragile physical body, which belonged to an ordinary person, is undergoing a tremendous and extraordinary reorganization.

Her muscle fibers became stronger, her senses were amplified infinitely, and it was as if a key had been added to the depths of her soul, enabling her to unlock a higher dimension.

I don't know how much time has passed.

In this shadowy dimension where time has no concept, it felt as if only a moment had passed, yet also as if an entire century had elapsed.

"Buzz—"

A slight vibration was heard in the air.

The smart devices in the study started working again, and the warm, bright light "snap" once more filled the room, completely dispelling the monotonous gray and white world.

Qin Xinran remained standing by the desk.

She was breathing heavily, her chest heaving, and her whole body was covered in sweat.

The thin silk nightgown was completely soaked with sweat, clinging tightly to her voluptuous and alluring body, outlining breathtaking curves.

But at this moment, she was completely oblivious to her suggestive and disheveled appearance.

She raised her hands blankly.

The ten fair and slender fingers looked perfectly normal, as delicate as ever.

However, in her deepest perception, these hands, and even this body, had undergone a complete and fundamental transformation.

She could "hear" the extremely faint breathing sounds of the shadows under the light.

She could even "see" that in every shadowy corner of the study, there was a deep passage leading to an unknown, void dimension.

Qin Xinran subconsciously stretched out her right hand and gently squeezed the shadow cast by the bookshelf on the floor in front of her.

"Whoosh—"

An unbelievable scene unfolded.

The originally ethereal black shadow suddenly seemed to have gained a physical form, instantly elongating and twisting into a jet-black, sharp shadow blade, which hovered in mid-air!

With a single thought, she could manipulate these shadows to kill without leaving a trace, or even merge herself into the darkness, transforming into a ghost that reigns supreme over the night.

[The five-star potential has been fully unleashed.]

[Rank A Ability: Shadow Overlord, Awakened.]

"Rank A ability... Shadow Overlord..."

Qin Xinran murmured these words repeatedly, and an unprecedented fervor and shock shone in her beautiful eyes!

It turned out to be true!

Everything that Su Yu said is true!

A thin invitation letter not only didn't kill her, but actually helped her cross the threshold of life and death. Before the strange event occurred, it forcefully smashed open a door to the extraordinary, directly awakening such a terrifying ability in her!

Qin Xinran clenched her fists tightly.

A wisp of black shadow, almost tangible, coiled nimbly around her fingertips like a docile venomous snake.

Feeling the supernatural power that could easily crush steel bars, Qin Xinran felt an unshakable awe for the organization called "Dawn" and its god-like leader.

She turned her head and gazed intently at the endless night outside the window.

"It actually helped me awaken my A-rank ability ahead of schedule..."

Qin Xinran murmured to herself, the shadows on her fingertips twitching slightly, her beautiful eyes sparkling with an unprecedented light of hope.

"Is this the foundation of Dawn?"

"No wonder even the higher-ups are willing to go to any lengths to find them..."

"By joining such an organization, perhaps I really can survive in that apocalyptic world that is about to turn into a living hell!"

At this moment, the queen of Yanjing's business world was no longer afraid of the impending strange arrival. Instead, she felt a strong anticipation and longing for the "dawn" hidden behind the mist.
