Chapter 194 Chapter 194 – Promotion
"Good news, Boss said that he needs three more Extractors, and he's planning on getting them from our team," a middle-aged man with black hair said to a team of ten people in front of him.
The others all looked at each other in surprise and excitement.
Finally, they had a chance to become Extractors!
This opportunity was one of the biggest reasons for accepting this job.
This was the Investigator team of Dark Dream.
Naturally, as people who had already worked for Dark Dream and who had already come into contact with Specters, the Investigators were very often the favorite candidates for new Zephyx Extractor positions.
In essence, becoming a Zephyx Extractor was a big promotion.
The Investigators already earned around 5,000 credits per month, which was quite a lot for the Outer City, but becoming an Extractor often meant a tenfold increase in pay at minimum.
Of course, the increase in power and status was even more valuable.
As the Investigators looked around, they became more excited.
Only ten of their people had been called into the meeting.
In total, there were around 30 Investigators.
So, did this mean that Boss would only look through the ten of them?
If so, that would be amazing!
"Will he choose one of us?" one of the men asked the leader in front of him.
"Yes, one of you," the leader said with a laugh. "I already sent him all the files, and he said that everyone present is considered for the position."
The ten of them grew more excited.
All of them wanted to become Extractors.
And three of them would achieve their dream today!
Sadly, or luckily, depending on the viewpoint, the team leader and his two substitutes were not considered for the position, but that had been clear from the very beginning.
In order to stop the team leaders from abusing their power and making them seem better for promotion, Wyntor and Nick had only hired rejected Zephyx Extractors for the team leader position.
This meant that the team leaders already had gained an ability from a Specter, but the ability wasn't good enough to become a Zephyx Extractor.
But on the other hand, they were paid 9,000 credits instead of 5,000.
Such a large number of credits made them part of the richest 5% of the Outer City.
"When will we know who is chosen?" one of them asked.
"By the end of today," the leader said with a smile.
This made the Investigators even more excited, and they started to talk to each other animatedly.
"How will he choose them?" another one asked.
"Well..."
At that moment, the door to the room opened, and a tall and extremely muscular person walked in.
The Investigators all quieted down.
Boss was here!
Nick looked at all the gathered people with furrowed brows.
Silence.
"Aman, come to meeting room two," Nick said before leaving the room again.
Everyone looked at one of the Investigators.
Aman, the Investigator who had just been called, took a deep breath and left.
