Kill the Sun

Chapter 283 Chapter 283 – The Screamer

Nick had to make a decision.

There was no time for hesitation!

Without thinking, he grabbed the grey spider to his right and threw it at the Extractor.

The Extractor barely turned to Nick before her vision was filled with the grey Specter.

The next moment, an orange Barrier appeared around her.

CRK!

Yet, the Grey Room started to spin and broke the Barrier.

When the Extractor lost all her Zephyx, she lost her power and collapsed.

The Grey Room landed on her, walked up to her head, and plopped down on it.

Nick released a sigh of relief.

"Sorry," he said. "I had to act quickly."

The Grey Room didn\'t answer and just kept sitting on top of the unconscious Extractor\'s head.

Nick guessed that the Grey Room didn\'t have any complaints.

After putting the woman on top of the pile, Nick continued running towards the exit.

"Ooooh, that looks nice!" the Parasite said as he saw Nick entering the room with eight corpses.

"Sorry, time\'s up," Nick said as he killed the Extractor.

Naturally, Nick was speaking to the Grey Room since it had still been feeding on the Extractor.

He quickly dumped all the corpses in the hole and heard a cacophony of splashes and crunching noises coming from the sewers.

"Man, I knew it was the right decision to accept this deal," the Parasite said after Nick left the room again.

"This city is quickly becoming one of my best hunting grounds!"

Nick and the Grey Room quickly reached the central hallways again.

On their way, they found a person cleaning the hallway.

\'Got no time! Can\'t get found out!\'

Nick quickly killed the cleaning lady and carried her corpse with him.

After that, Nick decided to clean the hallways of all the people cleaning right now and gathered two more corpses.

He delivered the three corpses to the Parasite and went back inside.

A moment later, Nick decided to kill most of the clerks in their offices.

What if one of them was searching for someone?

In the next ten minutes, Nick killed around 15 clerks and delivered them to the Parasite.

By now, Nick had killed 15 clerks, seven guards, three cleaning people, and six Extractors.

The more people Nick killed, the more he thought about the ambush from yesterday.

These people all wanted to kill him, and this was what they deserved!

Nick had been inside the Spartans\' building for over 30 minutes now.

Eventually, Nick cleared out most of the offices.

The only offices remaining were those of the executives, and Nick specifically avoided those.

If he attacked a Veteran, he would most likely get found out.

Another area that Nick had avoided was the two entrances to the building.

There were bound to be several people there.

"Alright," Nick said to the Grey Room. "Change of plans."

Nick took out the map and looked at it for a bit.

Then, he walked towards one of the doors and opened it.

This door was quite a bit thicker than the others, and Nick found himself in a small room with another door.

After that, he fidgeted with a console for a bit and opened the other door.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!"

An absolutely terrifying and ear-grating screech reverberated throughout the entire room.

Nick felt like his heart stopped.

He had just opened the door to a Containment Unit.

In the corner of the room was a hysteric but beautiful woman, and she was shouting in absolute terror at the top of her lungs.

\'That\'s why she\'s called the Screamer,\' Nick thought.

There was also a young woman sitting in the corner with a very uncomfortable and stressed expression.

She was an Extractor, and based on her uniform, she was a Newbie.

Funnily enough, she was so focused on resisting the screaming that she didn\'t even notice that the door opened.

Nick ran into the Containment Unit and killed the Extractor.

The Specter just kept screaming.

"Hey! Can you hear me?!" Nick shouted at the Screamer, his voice getting droned out by the high-pitched screams.

The Specter just kept screaming.

"If you\'re sentient, you need to tell me! Otherwise, I\'m going to kill you!"

More screaming.

It was like the Specter was completely beside herself in panic.

"Alright then!" Nick shouted.

BANG!

The Screamer\'s shouts stopped as Nick punched her in the face.

Then, Nick grabbed her head and tore it into pieces.

Pieces of flesh and blood splattered onto the walls and floor of the Containment Unit.

To make sure that the Specter was truly dead, Nick tore her into multiple pieces.

Specters were very resilient.

When Nick was certain that the Specter was dead, he released a sigh.

\'The first Specter I ever killed,\' he thought as he looked at the gory pieces.

Naturally, Nick\'s goal was to damage the Spartans as much as possible, and besides killing their employees, getting rid of their Specters was the next best thing.

Nick had already taken their old primary Specter, the Grey Room, with him, and now he had killed one of their Specters.

Nick left the pieces of the Specter inside the Containment Unit and left with the Extractor\'s corpse.

Luckily, the outer doors were soundproof, which meant that nobody in the building heard the Specter.

However, that couldn\'t really be considered luck since every Manufacturer would isolate this Specter with a soundproof wall.

Startling the entire building every time someone entered the Containment Unit was not the nicest thing to do.

Nick closed the door to the Containment Unit and turned to the Grey Room, which was waiting on the wall.

"Not sentient," Nick said before the two of them exited.

After delivering the corpse, Nick went to the next Containment Unit.

With the team leader\'s card, it wasn\'t difficult to enter all of the Containment Units.

Nick would make sure that the Spartans regretted attacking him!
