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 421 – Difficult Work

Nick left the Containment Unit and checked the Zephyx container.

 

'84 grams,' Nick thought. 'If we subtract the cost of the Recovery Liquid, this comes to about 74 grams of profit.'

 

'The good thing is that there is no limit to how much Zephyx can be made in a day.'

 

'According to the report, the Blaze produces more Zephyx the more Zephyx it burns. As a Mid Veteran, my body is made of far more Zephyx than the body of a John. Because of that, it takes the Blaze more time to burn my arm, but it also produces more Zephyx that way.'

 

'A Peak John can hold their hand in the fire for a maximum of three seconds before it becomes so damaged that it has to be amputated.'

 

'However, the Peak John would still need a drop of Recovery Liquid, and the price of that doesn't fluctuate. Also, I can't just keep the Recovery Liquid from them since that would be barbaric.'

 

'I need to test more.'
