There Is No Daylight in the Deep City

After the cataclysm, the sun became history, and humans built giant cities underground. Here, light is rationed based on status, prosthetics can be remotely shut down by the company, and human organs, memory and even lifespan have a price. Shen Zhou just wanted to get two upper-level residence permits and take one person out of the deep level. Until a power outage swept the entire area, allowing him to awaken the ability to merge with shadows, and he also saw a shadow without an owner. In this era, superpowers have no fixed endpoint. Each time you advance, you must make an irreversible choice: the same shadow can be used for sneaking, hunting, or controlling; different prosthetics, abnormal relics, and old civilization creations can also combine abilities with each other to form a unique evolutionary system. In order to advance to the next level, Shen Zhou had to go deep into the blocked area and compete for resources among companies, gangs and out-of-control awakeners. He thought he was choosing strength. Only later did he realize that every choice he made was leading him to the bottom of the deep city. There, darkness had been waiting for him for many years.
