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.

Comments on the novel chapters for the last week.
i swear nick is soo over-hated You guys are just used to one dimensional characters where authors have no room to try something new and nick is just product of experimenting in very stale genre there are versions of nick i hate, like or both if you think nick is horrible wait till your mom stops bringing you dino nuggies (i wish i got some) PS: LOVE, YOUR LURKING READER, time to build some respect in this cespool.
10 more chapters to stack until it hits 50 😁
Guys i have a theory… what if mr beast is a specter? The beast games…. He’s actually harvesting their suffering for his own power! 😱🤯💀 getting thousands of people in poverty and promising 5 million dollars… this specter is too vile! 😔🤔😵💫😱💀💀💀
i’ve read till chapter 720 and here’s my review. If you’re planning on reading this then Don’t read the comments yet. When i read the comments it was about people saying novel is bad, mc is the worst character in fiction bla bla bla. This novel is GREAT. it’s very very great Great lore, great power system, great characters PLEASE READ THIS. - Now onto the mc, mc is a bad person but a good character. He is a hypocrite but not in the sense like the chinese cultivation novels. - minor spoiler, mc is trying to make humanity better so he’s thinking is that “ i can kill 1 person to save 2” or “ the end justifies the means” that’s all i can say. - But honestly don’t let some comment demotivate you into not reading. I almost missed out on Peak because of them. 7.5/10 novel
If you’re thinking about starting. Just power through the first section of the story. Yes it’s depressing. Yes mc is probably going to p*ss you off . Definitely worth it though.
Well I want to continue reading this again from inbetween but I don't remember the chapter exactly I was there reading when Mc had just accidentally released a 5 level specter which ate half of city and nearly all poor people and he was at level 3 something and reconstruction of city had just begun
Romance?
Identifying if I want to read this novel through the comments seems like a wasted effort. On one side of the comments there are people glazing the author left and right On the other side of the comments are people talking about how depressing the characters are.
gonna start only b'cause there is 'kill' in the name. Kill! Kill!! Kill!!!!
im on c200, does nick ever leave the city?
