Ultraviolet shot through the air, striking the Skeleton Mutant. This was not just a saying; it was a long-standing truth. Humans inherently reject green light. The origin of the Skeleton Mutant lies within humanity itself, and its only weakness is its fear of Ultraviolet—which originates from electromagnetic waves.
As a sudden idea sparked in his mind, a plan to eliminate the Skeleton Mutant emerged. The conditions for this plan required a 10W bulb with a slight focus; a spotlight could produce ten times the intensity of Ultraviolet compared to the sun. Xiao Qiang tore his gaze away from the gradually cooling body of Xiao Chongjun and focused on the lights in the spaceship room, his eyes gleaming with realization. He thought to himself: There’s a chance…
*******
Lin Yu and Wu Yi struggled to see how many Skeleton Mutants were attacking the madman in the Dark. When the attacking Skeleton Mutants caught a whiff of more human blood, they seemed excited, abandoning the madman who had already lost an eye and lunging straight toward Matt and Hansen, who were foolishly trying to get a closer look.
Everything happened too quickly, compounded by the poor lighting. With the naked eye, it was impossible to determine the true number of Skeleton Mutants. Under Lin Yu's guidance, Wu Yi helped the madman up and quickly moved away from danger.
She spread her fingers wide, her pupils shifting—within the Dark space, she caught a fleeting glimpse of Lin Yu’s pupils, which glowed with a dark red hue characteristic of zombies.
The color of Lin Yu's pupils was similar to that of the Skeleton Mutant, which were deeply set in its eye sockets. However, hers were slightly darker, while the Skeleton Mutant’s pupils appeared greenish-red in the shadows.
At such close proximity, Matt and Hansen were nearly within arm's reach of the Skeleton Mutant. Although he had previously experienced Lin Yu's strength, he never expected that she would use her powerful telekinetic Ability to save him this time…
With Lin Yu exerting her power, just as Matt and Hansen were about to be harmed by the Skeleton Mutant, they narrowly escaped…
In that urgent moment, there was no time to ponder life or death. Regardless of whether those saved were friend or foe, there was no room for hesitation. She could not stand by and watch as Xiao Qiang’s mistake turned Matt and Hansen into sacrifices of this era.
The scene at that moment could only be described with probabilistic language: In the Dark, under a gloomy sky. Surrounding Wu Yi, Matt, and their companions were grinning and restless figures from a future world—their surroundings filled with Skeleton Mutants. In an instant, dust swirled violently as if heaven and earth were merging into one. It became impossible to distinguish up from down; it felt like a storm was about to break.
This was the utmost energy Lin Yu could muster with all her might… Unlike in the Subterranean Spaceship, where larger spaces favored her energy output. When her telekinesis reached a certain level, she felt an intense force tearing through the air as it moved toward the approaching Skeleton Mutant, ready to rip apart and destroy everything in its path.
Leaping towards Hansen and Matt's Skeleton Mutant was akin to a moth flying into a flame. As they encountered the powerful telekinetic waves that seemed to come from nowhere, it was as if their bodies were automatically drawn into a vortex with an overwhelming suction, unable to break free!
The swirling headwind, imbued with resilience—whoosh—these intense telekinetic waves resembled an extremely sharp surgical knife, slicing, stabbing, tearing, cleaving, and colliding. One by one, the terrifying Skeleton Mutants emitted blood-curdling howls of fear, splattering foul blood everywhere, which sprayed into the encirclement of Skeleton Mutants. Hansen and Matt were covered in the stench of gore from head to toe.
However, just as they eliminated one wave of Skeleton Mutants, another large group of agile and menacing Skeleton Mutants surged forth from the dark and obscured area once again.
Seeing this scene, Matt was terrified to the point of losing control. He dared not linger any longer. With Lin Yu blocking the way, he seized the opportunity to pull Hansen back as they ran—shouting as they fled, “The skeletons… the skeletons are coming!”
Matt's cries startled Professor R and others who were peering through microscopes. The excitement they had just felt was shattered by his panicked shouting. Enraged, Professor R scolded, “What are you shouting about? Can't you handle this calmly?”
“I can’t handle it.”
Matt dared not speak up; it was Hansen who replied. A look of panic crossed Hansen's face, which surprised Professor R greatly.
From his short-term observations of Hansen, Professor R had learned that he was mature and composed, always methodical in his actions. He had never shown any signs of error or panic before.
Professor R waved his hand to stop his work. With a grim expression, he looked at the two of them and asked, “What happened?”
Matt and Hansen nervously swallowed hard and exchanged glances without immediately answering the professor's question. Instead, they hurriedly scanned the other personnel present; their behavior was quite inappropriate.
This made Professor R very angry. He clasped his hands behind his back and cast a disappointed glance at Matt. Emphasizing his words, he said, “If something is wrong, speak up quickly.”
Matt appeared tense as he glanced toward the door. Finally, under everyone's gaze, he trembled as he spoke with quivering lips, “Skeletons… man-eating skeletons…”
“Ha ha! Matt, do you really want to joke around at a time like this?” Xiao Chongjun laughed heartily, shaking his head in silent exasperation. As a renowned figure in the scientific community, how could he have chosen such a fool as his assistant?
Matt knew that Xiao Chongjun didn’t believe him. He turned to Hansen and said, “You tell them what you saw.”
Hansen’s deep gaze swept over each person’s face, and he spoke seriously, “What Matt said is true. The idiot worker left behind on the island was attacked by a skeleton, and one of his eyeballs was gouged out and eaten by it.”
If they didn’t believe Matt, they certainly had no reason to doubt Hansen. Everyone accepted the truth of his words, especially upon hearing that the skeleton had eaten the eyeball of the maintenance worker left on the island. A sense of inexplicable unease and fear washed over them all.
“Let’s go take a look. Don’t forget to bring your weapons,” the Professor R shouted loudly. He picked up an iron rod as thick as his arm and strode out.
Except for Zhao Liya, who was resting in the dormitory, all the personnel at the base rushed out to verify whether Matt and Hansen’s claims were exaggerated rumors.
This was one reason why Xiao Qiang didn’t see anyone when he woke up.
Lin Yu used his powerful telekinesis to eliminate some of the Skeleton Mutants, but even more appeared. These were Skeleton Mutants that Xiao Qiang had unconsciously transported to 2028 using the Reincarnation Card Key in the future world. They thrived in dark areas, hiding and reproducing.
Lin Yu and Wu Yi had their weapons taken away by Matt and the others, so they had to rely solely on their abilities to deal with the endless waves of Skeleton Mutants, which proved to be quite challenging.
