Kill the Sun

Chapter 81 Chapter 81 – Marketplace

"Everyone ready?" Wyntor asked.

Nick, Jenny, and Trevor nodded.

After talking with Nick some more, Wyntor had decided that the others also needed some equipment.

While they didn't have the money for the really good equipment, Wyntor was willing to give them an advance for their equipment. After all, it was important that his people stayed alive.

Because of that, no one was working with the Dreamer.

Right now, it was eight a.m., which meant it would be Nick's time to work with the Dreamer.

For the next couple of hours, Dark Dream would take a corporate trip to the Extractor market. After that, the normal shifts would start again.

At this moment, Wyntor stood in front of his employees, and Nick stood in front of Trevor and Jenny, facing Wyntor.

"Good! Then, let's go," Wyntor said with a friendly smile as he walked towards the exit of the warehouse.

The other three followed him with excited expressions.

Naturally, all three of them had already gathered quite a bit of wealth, and they were more than willing to buy something useful with that wealth.

As the four of them stepped onto the streets, they drew the gazes of all the present people.

Seeing three Zephyx Extractors walking around with their uniforms was quite eye-catching, but even more noticeable was Wyntor.

Wyntor wore a form-fitting suit with a mixture of grey, red, and dark purple colors.

Not everyone knew what this suit signified, but the few that did were shocked and surprised.

Naturally, as the CEO in a public place, Wyntor had to look the part, which was why he had put on his official suit for negotiations between companies.

The very few people who knew what this suit meant felt themselves lucky to see Wyntor.

Usually, people of the Outer City didn't have the luck to see one of the Melfion family's progeny.

The suit Wyntor was wearing showed everyone that he was part of the Melfion family, and the color scheme indicated his status.

The grey color of the suit represented the Melfion family personally.

The red color represented Kugelblitz, the biggest Zephyx Manufacturer of Crimson Fungus City.

And the darker purple represented Dark Dream.

This suit showed everyone that Wyntor was a possible heir to the Melfion family and that he had already made his own business.

Compared to Wyntor, the three Zephyx Extractors walking behind him only seemed like his bodyguards or servants.

Jenny and Trevor knew that Wyntor was part of the Melfion family, and right now, they felt a bit proud that they were one of the few people working for someone with such a high status.

Nick didn't pay a lot of attention to the people looking at them. His mind was fully occupied with thinking about all the things he would soon buy!

After a couple of minutes of walking, the group arrived in front of a big warehouse, even bigger than the one Dark Dream owned.

This warehouse was probably over a hundred meters long and nearly as wide.

In front of the warehouse stood a group of guards who inspected everyone who passed by them.

"This is the place," Wyntor said to his employees.

The three people looked at the warehouse with interest.

It seemed quite big but unassuming.

Wyntor walked forward, and his three employees followed him.

When the guards saw Wyntor's suit, they performed a short but respectful bow.

Wyntor answered with a nod.

One of them opened a small sliding door and gestured for the group to enter.

The other three gave a short "hi" before they also entered the warehouse.

The door closed behind them, and the group could finally see what the marketplace for Zephyx Extractors looked like.

It was busy!

"Wow," Nick uttered in surprise, "there are probably nearly a hundred people in here!"

"Yep," Wyntor said with a smile as he looked at the group. "Since Newbies are not allowed in the Inner City without explicit permission, they all have to buy their things here."

"But Wyntor, there are still so many people here," Nick said. "This is just one of the marketplaces, right? If there are already so many Extractors here, how many are there in the entire Outer City?"

Wyntor smirked. "In truth, this is the only marketplace for Extractors outside the Inner City."

The three looked with surprise at Wyntor.

The only one?

They had assumed that it was only one of several marketplaces since they hadn't even walked for two kilometers to get there.

Wyntor chuckled a bit. "It just so happens that the marketplace is very close to Dark Dream. It's just a coincidence."

"So, this is everyone?" Jenny asked from behind Nick.

Jenny and Trevor were not very comfortable in Wyntor's presence.

The first time they had met Wyntor, he had taught them about Dark Dream and gave them orders, and that single meeting already represented the majority of their time spent talking to Wyntor.

As the CEO, Wyntor had no official direct line of communication with the Zephyx Extractors.

He only talked to them as an HR representative, but even that way of communicating with them would vanish when they got an actual HR person.

If the two of them needed something from the company, they just had to talk to Nick, and Nick would talk to Wyntor if necessary.

"It's not everyone," Wyntor said. "It's about a third of all Newbies. Not all of the Newbies come here every week. Even more, Kugelblitz and Anatomy have permission to house their Newbies in the Inner City, and there are much better marketplaces there."

Naturally, all three of the Extractors knew Kugelblitz and Anatomy.

Kugelblitz was the biggest Zephyx Manufacturer of Crimson Fungus City, and their most famous Specter was the Crimson Fungus, which the city was named after.

The Crimson Fungus was the only level six Specter that had been captured and contained in Crimson Fungus City.

As the only Zephyx Manufacturer with a level six Specter, Kugelblitz naturally was the de-facto leader of Crimson Fungus City.

However, there was also another very powerful and big Zephyx Manufacturer.

Anatomy.
