Kill the Sun

Chapter 188 Chapter 188 – Captured

Nick felt the floor moving below him, and he knew that his people were currently carrying the cell to the building.

He just wanted to go to sleep, but he kept himself awake.

About an hour later, Nick felt like he was being pulled upwards, which told him that the Repelling Cell was getting pulled up.

Naturally, Nick knew about the entire plan, and he knew how they were going to pull the Repelling Cell upward.

A pulley on the roof.

The bad part was that this meant that all the onlookers knew on which floor the Fog would be contained, but there was nothing they could do about it.

The Repelling Cell was too big and didn't fit through the doors, and carrying it up the staircase would probably take hours.

One had to know that every hour the cell was active used up a kilo of Zephyx.

It wasn't worth the millions of credits just to keep the floor a secret.

So, they just pulled it up at the side of the building.

When the cage reached the sixth floor, the Extractors removed the walls and pulled it inside.

After that, they put the walls back.

The group of onlookers talked with each other for a while before leaving since there was nothing to see anymore.

On the sixth floor, the Extractors carried the cell to the expensive Containment Unit for the Fog.

Since the Containment Units were all surrounded by the inner walls of the building, it didn't look any different from the other Containment Units.

However, if one stripped off the walls, it looked very different.

First of all, there were many small windows with sensors and cameras on the wall.

Additionally, there were so many expensive wires and tubes going around the Containment Unit.

Lastly, the console was almost five times as big as the consoles of the other Containment Units.

This thing had so many different functions that it couldn't be compared to the other Containment Units anymore.

This thing was a beast!

Jenny and Nick had undergone a five-day long training course on how to operate this Containment Unit by its designers and creators.

They were the only two who could operate this Containment Unit.

The main door of the Containment Unit opened, and it sounded a loud and scary alarm.

Then, everyone waited.

To ensure that no Specter was accidentally released, the Containment Unit would sound the alarm for a full five minutes before opening.

This was to make absolutely sure that no one was trying to secretly open it.

Five minutes later, a big part of the wall was opened, and the walls were moving into a form that seemed to mirror the Repelling Cell's shape perfectly.

The Repelling Cell and the Containment Unit were made by the same company, and they were obviously compatible with each other.

The Extractors moved the Repelling Cell to the hole and heard several clicks.

After making sure that all eight clicks sounded, they stepped away.

Jenny went to the Containment Unit's cell and pressed several buttons.

Then, she nodded to Trevor.

Trevor nodded back and pressed a button at the side of the Repelling Cell.

The cell started to shine even brighter, and half of a cylinder of Zephyx emptied immediately.

The humming turned even louder.

BANG!

The wall of the cell facing the Containment Unit shot open with incredible force.

BOOOOOM!

Then, the cell exploded in a bright white light, and all the Extractors had to protect their eyes.

Inside the Repelling Cell, Nick's eyes opened wide when he saw the Fog instantly vanish from around him.

The next moment, Nick saw the Fog hitting the distant wall of the Containment Unit with wonder and surprise.

BANG!

The wall of the Containment Unit slammed shut with insane power, and the wires turned white and purple.

Nick heard a low humming noise coming from the Containment Unit, but it couldn't be compared to the ear-shattering noise of the Repelling Cell.

Outside, Jenny pressed several buttons on the Containment Unit's console and checked through all metrics.

Everyone waited with bated breaths.

About a minute later, Jenny released a sigh.

"Everything looks good," she said with a smile.

Immediately, some of the Extractors sat on the floor in relief while a couple others were cheering.

They had done it!

"We can celebrate later," Jenny said. "Get Boss out of there first."

The Extractors quickly walked up to the Repelling Cell, and Trevor pressed several buttons.

After eight clinks, Trevor gestured for the Extractors to move the cage back, and they did just that.

Inside the cage, Nick saw the cell getting moved away from the wall, and he released a sigh of relief.

The next second, Trevor looked into the cell and smiled. "We got it!"

Nick smiled back and walked out.

As soon as he walked out, all the Extractors cheered.

Their Chief Zephyx Extractor had done it!

Without him, they wouldn't have been able to capture the Fog.

Nick had been the one that had located it, kept it busy, and moved it into the cage.

He had also been the only one in true danger.

Not even a single Extractor wasn't proud of Nick at this moment, and they were happy that they had an actually competent boss.

Nick smiled with embarrassment as he rubbed the back of his head.

"Well done, everyone!" Wyntor said with a couple of claps for his employees. "You all did amazing work today!"

The Extractors smiled respectfully.

Then, Wyntor walked over to Nick and put his hand on Nick's shoulder.

"Good job, Nick!" he said. "I knew it wasn't a mistake to invest so much in you!"

Naturally, Wyntor spoke the latter part quietly.

"Thanks, Wyntor," Nick answered with a sigh. "I'm beat. I just want to eat something and go to sleep."

Wyntor nodded with a laugh. "I can imagine! Then, I won't keep you here any longer. Have a fun night, and we're going to see each other the day after tomorrow."

Nick and Wyntor had already agreed that Nick would get the day off after capturing the Fog.

"Thanks, I really need that now," Nick said.

Wyntor just laughed.
