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.

Kill the Sun

When the elite heard that Ghosty's Lab fully joined the city, they became worried.

This essentially quadrupled the available number of loyal guards the city had.

Gemini and Kugelblitz realized that it would become much harder to influence the guards for their own means.

However, everyone had a price. That price would just increase by quite a bit.

It was annoying, but there wasn't much they could do about it.

The game dictated that the city guards were difficult to influence due to their loyalty.

The government hadn't gone against their interests directly.

They just made it harder to circumvent the law.

But then, the second announcement hit, and the feelings of Kugelblitz and Gemini were very mixed.

The policy of requiring 20% of Extractors working for a Manufacturer to be dedicated to the city was completely scrapped.
