The system arrived a long time ago. And her name is Darkness. Billions of practitioners have died opposing it. But how will a practitioner of the path of blood, whom Darkness has made its adept, survive? Fan fiction and apocrypha to the work “City of Goblins” by Pyotr Zhgulev Author's notes: This story is inspired by the wonderful RealRPG cycle "City of Goblins" by Peter Zhgulev. The story is told from the perspective of a practitioner from the tower, many thousands of years before the original events. I wanted to create a realistic hero that I was cultivating, but suddenly I became a player. There will be a lot of thinking, cultivation, as well as BLOOD, cruelty, and violence.
