When the Lights Go Out in All Cities

There are 10,08 cities in the world. Every city has a visible light and an invisible light. Visible lights illuminate the streets, while invisible lights maintain names, memories and futures for people in the city. Seventeen years ago, the first city "Baize City" suddenly burned out. The city still exists and the streets are still intact, but the three million people in the city have disappeared from everyone's memories, household registrations, history books and photos. People call that disaster "the first extinction". No one knows that the first extinction is not the end of the disaster, but the first ignition of a huge plan. Lu Chendeng was born in a small town on the edge of the city. He was a person without extraordinary talent, family background, or even a formal name. His job is to count the street lights that are about to be scrapped for the city. Until one night, he found an old black lamp among the ruins. The lamp records a city that does not exist, and also records his future death. In order to find out his life experience, Lu Chendeng entered the "Night Patrol Bureau", the most mysterious organization among cities, and began to contact the hidden cities, missing people and tampered history. He gradually discovered: The so-called extraordinary practice is not for the purpose of becoming stronger. The realms, bloodlines, secret realms and magic weapons that the world is fighting for are all "city authority" left behind by the old civilization. And every breakthrough will cause a certain city to lose part of its future. When the second lights out comes, Lu Chendeng must make a choice between saving himself, saving 10,000 people, or saving the entire era.
