Kill the Sun - Chapter 306

Chapter 306 Chapter 306 – End of the Shift

?While Nick was fixing the holes, he kept thinking about the person who had just tried to kill him.

Right now, the ever-present black hole in his chest was covered by a red film of anger. The inaugural upload of this chapter took place via N0v3l-B1n.

Anger was a very good distraction from pain.

After around half an hour, Nick managed to create a ladder leading around the damaged part.

The metal plates where the old grips had been were just too damaged and unstable, which was why Nick had made a way around them.

Finally, Nick returned to the center and told the assistant that he was done.

"Let me check," the assistant said before quickly moving down Nick's lane.

Around 30 seconds later, he came back and nodded at Nick.

"Good work. You can leave. We'll see each other again next week," he said.

At that moment, Nick furrowed his brows. "Next week?"

"Yes," the assistant said. "Do you think this was the only time you were working here?"

"Yes," Nick said, "the order said so."

The assistant also furrowed his brows.

Then, he held his hand out.

"Show me."

Nick took the order out and handed it over.

The assistant read through it, and his eyebrows rose in surprise.

"Huh," he said.

Silence.

"If I had known, I wouldn't have made that offer to you," he added before sighing.

"But well, we had an agreement. It's my fault for not reading through your order carefully."

Then, he handed the order back to Nick.

Nick pocketed the order, nodded at the assistant, and went to the underground's exit.

The two guards standing beside the exit immediately pointed their guns at Nick as he approached.

"He can leave," the assistant shouted from a distance.

The guards put their guns down and nodded at Nick.

Nick nodded back and jumped out of the hole.

When Nick came out of the underground, his eyes had to adjust to the different light again.

Cryon's face.

Jonathan's face.

Kiara's face.

'Right, I need someone to work with the Lover now,' Nick thought as he tried his best to distract his mind.

'Kerry worked with it before. If she's still alive, she might agree to work with it.'

'What if nobody wants to work with it?' Nick asked himself.

Silence.

'I guess that would mean that we couldn't gain any Zephyx from it.'

'Should we sell it, then?'

Nick shook his head.

'I should continue cleaning the building first.'

A moment later, Nick returned to cleaning the building.

Within a couple of minutes, he was occupied with working again.

A couple of hours passed.

At around 11:30 p.m., someone appeared in front of Dark Dream's entrance.

When Nick saw the person, he immediately became nervous.

It was a tall young man with disheveled brown hair and eyebags below his eyes.

He looked extremely tired and exhausted.

"Wyntor," Nick said.

Wyntor looked at Nick, and Nick could see his red eyes.

"How are the Specters?" Wyntor asked.

"All good," Nick said. "The Bleeding Lady is stressed and needs some food soon, and the Dung Heap is rolling around in hunger, but there isn't much I can do about that without some food waste. Otherwise, everything's alright."

Wyntor released a sigh and walked into Dark Dream.

As he walked past Nick, he threw a glance at him.

"We need to talk," Wyntor said as he went onto the staircase.

Nick took a deep breath and walked after Wyntor.

He had expected that this would happen.

Wyntor knew that Nick had been inside the Spartans' building yesterday, and he also knew of Nick's capabilities.

Wyntor definitely knew that Nick was the reason why the Crimson Sea had broken out.

Nick had no idea what Wyntor had planned.
