Kill the Sun

Earth, thousands of years after the apocalypse. Countless technologies and advances had been lost to time as the Specters, horrifying beings with terrifying powers, arrived and destroyed the world. Over the coming thousands of years, humanity had built itself up but always died again. Nobody remembers the past. Nobody remembers what humanity had once accomplished. Now, everyone is living in a world where the Specters reign supreme. ----- A boy with amnesia woke up in the middle of the Dregs, the worst part of Crimson Fungus City. The boy grows up and manages to become strong enough to pass an exam for one of the most prestigious jobs in existence, a Zephyx Extractor, someone that can harvest the powers of Specters. Sadly, he had already gained a power from a Specter in the past, which made him ineligible for the position. But then, a mysterious man visits him. And his luck finally turns around.

Chapter 299 – Not As Valuable

Nick finally found out what undercity work was.

 

So, it was putting grips onto the underside of the city.

 

The more Nick thought about it, the more sense it actually made.

 

They would need to expand the city again at some point, and they couldn't just attach a single layer of steel. That would be far too unstable.

 

The floor of the outer city was made of three layers, and all three layers added together were about a meter thick.

 

The upper layer was made of the big metal plates that the people walked on.

 

The middle layer was made of big and robust steel beams.

 

The lower layer was made of the same metal plates as the upper layer.

 

Originally, the entire floor of the Outer City was made of these layers, but the floor of the Dregs deteriorated over the years.

 

Parts of the Dregs had only had a single layer of metal plates and grates.
