?285 Chapter 285 – The Red Sea
The Grey Room charged into the room by crawling along the wall.
The Agonizing Wait threw itself in as well.
"What?!"
Nick heard a shocked shouting from inside the room.
Nick immediately turned into ck smoke and joined the other ck smoke in the surroundings.
For the first time in a while, Nick''s ability activated again.
As he slithered across the walls, he heard the sound of things crashing.
DING!
Nick''s eyes narrowed when he saw a green sh.
In an instant, Nick turned corporeal and jumped forward with all of his power.
BANG!
Nick''s metallic nails hit John Keyweather''s green Barrier, and another green sh appeared.
Meanwhile, a middle-aged man with ck hair looked with terror at the ck figure that had just appeared in his sight.
He had just lost over 40% of his Zephyx with that attack!
Even more, the appearance of this ck figure was terrifying!
It was like it was some kind of servant of death itself, and the ck nails were extremely frightening and powerful!
Was this a Specter?!
SHING!
A white shield manifested in John''s left arm, and he moved it toward the ck figure with all of his power.
Yet, just before he hit the ck figure, it seemed to disappear like smoke!
DING!
John''s Barrier activated again, and he saw the Grey Room attacking it from above again.
''How the fuck did those two break out?! What is that third Specter?!'' John thought in frustration, rage, and terror.
John jumped to the side and used his shield to p the Grey Room to the side.
The Grey Room was one of their most important Specters, and even though it was attacking him right now, he didn''t want to kill it.
Then, John saw a hand wing at his Barrier, which activated again.
BANG!
John kicked the Agonizing Wait to the side.
BOOOOOM!
The ck figure appeared again, its ck nails brutally tearing at his Barrier.
John''s face turned white as he felt himself running low on Zephyx.
''I have to flee!''
John attacked the figure with his spear, but the figure just vanished again.
Then, he turned to his right and punched the wall.
BOOOOOM!
The wall exploded, and the hallway was covered with pieces of metal and steel!
Then, John immediately ran out.
He left the smoke cloud and saw the Agonizing Wait and the Grey Room running down the hallway in front of him.
''They''re running away?!'' John thought in shock.
Why were they running away?!
BANG!
John''s green Barrier appeared again, but the next moment, it broke into pieces under his shocked gaze.
He couldn''t see it, but right now, a ck figure was behind him, and it had just left the ck cloud of smoke behind them.
The ck figure''s nails stretched towards John''s head.
And then, they engulfed it.
CRKSH!
The nails dug into John''s eyes, crushing them.
Then, the nails rammed into his brain and violently moved around.
The nails tore out by tearing the socket apart before finally burying into John''s head with one final attack.
John was dead.
The CEO of the Spartans had died.
At this moment, two people ran out of an office in front of John.
They were the two other founding members of the Spartans, and what they saw terrified them to the core.
Apletely ck figure with terrifying nails was on top of their friend!
The figure''s head turned forward, and for just an instant, time seemed to stand still as the two sides looked at each other.
CRKSH!
Then, the ck figure violently pulled the corpse back into the ck cloud.
"JOHN!" Kallum shouted as he and his friend charged into the cloud of smoke.
Kallum quickly found John''s corpse inside the ck cloud and looked at it.
Since John''s head had faced the ground earlier, Kallum hadn''t seen the true extent of the damage.
When Kallum saw the ravaged head of his friend, he felt like the world was ending.
This was his friend!
They had been best friends for decades!
The next moment, a terrifyingly loud rm echoed throughout the building.
The third founder had activated the rm as he searched through the ck cloud for the ck figure.
More and more people came out of the rooms at the side.
Suddenly, a second rm joined the first rm.
When Kallum and his friend heard that rm, their eyes widened in horror.
No!
This was the rm of the Containment Unit suppressing the Crimson Sea malfunctioning!
Momentster, the walls of a certain Containment Unit started to bleed, and the blood rapidly covered the floor around the Containment Unit.
The people in the hallways looked with shock as a wave of blood gathered in the hallway before thundering towards them.
Everyone started to flee in horror, but the wave still caught many of them.
As soon as they were touched by the wave, they started to smoke.
This was acid!
The normal people dissolved within ten seconds, while the others took much longer to dissolve.
The Peak Johns managed to run away from the water, but the Newbies weren''t as lucky.
More and more red water filled the hallways.
BOOOOM!
Eventually, the two entrances of the building exploded outward as they couldn''t resist the pressure of the red water.
In the Inner and Outer Cities, the bystanders looked with shock at the entrances.
And then, they also got engulfed by the red water.
There was more and more red water!
It just didn''t stop!
The guards quickly noticed and rang the city''s emergency alert.
Meanwhile, a ck figure thundered through a door before closing the door behind it.
"No corpses?" the rat asked, but before it could finish asking, Nick already jumped through the hole.
The rat raised an eyebrow, but a momentter, the door broke down, and a wave of red acid covered the room.
"Oh, fuck," the rat said before it was engulfed by the acid.
The rat died almost immediately, and the red water entered the hole, flowing into the sewers.
