Chapter 372 Chapter 372 – Black Hair

Nick's heart rate increased when he saw the man running towards the south.

'There is most likely at least one Expert there,' Nick thought.

"Jenny, take the Specter!" Nick shouted as he threw the Specter to Jenny.

Jenny caught it, and Nick jumped past her.

"Continue towards the city, everyone!" Nick ordered. "I will keep watch over our back!"

The team started to run at full speed while Nick ran behind them.

Fortunately, his ability had activated again, which meant that no one was looking at him right now.

Nick kept looking towards the south as he ran after his team.

They were about four kilometers away from the city's entrance, but there were a couple of hills between their current location and the entrance.

"Do not turn around! Just keep running!" Nick ordered with a shout as he felt his ability deactivate after Petra glanced back. This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com

Petra quickly turned forward again, but she was still worried for Nick.

After a couple of seconds, Nick turned to look at his team.

He wanted to make sure that if his ability suddenly deactivated, it wasn't because one of his teammates was looking at him.

Twenty seconds later, only three kilometers were between them and the bridge.

Nick's ability deactivated.

Nick rapidly looked in all directions.

But there was nobody!

He couldn't see anyone looking at him!

"DO NOT TURN AROUND!" Nick shouted.

WHOOOOM!

Suddenly, a huge ball of light appeared around Nick.

The four Extractors running in front of Nick felt like everything behind them was being swallowed by light.

Nick lost 80% of his Zephyx by making the ball of light so bright but now was not the time to save Zephyx.

And it was worth it since his ability reactivated again.

As soon as it did, he turned his back to the direction of the city and jumped.

Nick was jumping backward over his group while reaching a height of nearly a hundred meters.

But what if someone else was present and heard Nick?

What if the guards at the city's entrance heard him?

After all, his shout had been extremely loud.

Well, if Nick suddenly died, everyone would look at her.

She would most likely be found guilty and executed, and even more, Anatomy would receive brutal punishment as well.

Even if she were willing to sacrifice herself, killing Nick now would make Anatomy furious.

Yes, they wanted Dark Dream, but the risk-to-reward ratio was atrocious right now.

The good thing was that she hadn't committed to attacking yet.

Even if Dark Dream reported her, she could just say that she was passing by.

However, one thing still severely annoyed her.

'Lucky bastard,' she thought. 'He used that flash exactly when I was aiming at him!'

Nick landed in front of the group and looked towards the east, the place where that Extractor had just aimed at him.

Fortunately, nothing happened in the next couple of seconds.

When the team was only two kilometers away from the bridge, they got to a spot that was visible from the city's entrance.

"Hey!" Nick shouted, waving at the distant guards.

Some of them looked at the distant Nick.

They had heard his shout earlier, and they knew exactly what happened.

When they saw the black body that Nick was carrying, they knew why someone had targeted them.

Naturally, the guards were not happy to see Nick carrying a Specter.

These four guards were working for Anatomy, Kugelblitz, and Ghosty's Lab, and they would rather have the Specter in their companies.

Sadly, there was nothing they could do.

They just watched as Nick's group approached them and walked past them into the corridor.

"Lucky bastard got a Specter," one of them commented.

No one answered him.

When Nick saw the two Experts in front of the bridge, he sighed in relief.

They were safe now.
