The underground hall where the generator was located was wide open. Most of the electronic equipment had been damaged by some mysterious force, and blue electric sparks were bursting continuously. It was no longer possible to isolate the hall to prevent the contamination from leaking out.

Chen Gu walked in. Despite being mentally prepared, the sight before him still shocked him greatly.

The entire hall was filled with mountainous, sea-like black organic matter. Dr. Meng Ji and his research staff were all tightly enveloped by this substance. Only one of Gong Shuxu's professionals remained standing next to him. The two were unleashing their power, struggling against the countless black tendrils that were growing and spreading towards them!

Doctor, you've really outdone yourself this time...

After muttering to himself, Chen Gu stepped forward, shifting his memory from "Derek Kun Shen Ken" to "Milna Katerina."

Upon laying eyes on this massive Mutant, a judgment instinctively formed in Chen Gu's heart: Nuclear Melting Ray Eyes could dissolve it.

Why he felt that way or made such a judgment, Chen Gu couldn't say for sure. It might have been intuition or perhaps experience.

He positioned one foot forward and one back, arms slightly spread and exerting force, guiding with his eyes, as if the entire focus of his strength was concentrated in those eyes.

FSSSHHH—

Intense nuclear fusion rays shot out from his eyes, quickly burning a huge hole in the massive black flesh mountain. A thick, acrid smell of burning followed.

The flesh mountain trembled violently, clearly in agony. Simultaneously, it rapidly grew countless black tendrils, resembling the long hair of a banshee, accompanied by soul-piercing screams, wildly sweeping towards Chen Gu.

But no matter how fast they moved, they couldn't escape Chen Gu's "sight." Chen Gu turned his head to look, and under the 'Nuclear Melting Ray Eyes,' those tendrils were instantly reduced to ash!

Gong Shuxu was engaged in a tough battle with the enormous Mutant, mindful that his attacks shouldn't harm the colleagues wrapped within it—those people were essentially hostages, severely limiting Gong Shuxu's ability to fight effectively.

That special agent had never encountered such a terrifying Mutant. During regular missions within the city, facing a four or five-meter tall Mutant was already considered extremely dangerous.

But this time, he was confronted with a literal mountain of flesh! The Mutant's horrifying presence made him hide behind the Sixth Energy Level, trembling slightly, continuously grateful in his heart: Thank goodness for such strong backup!

But at the same time, he felt uneasy: This Mutant is too powerful, and even the Sixth Energy Level seems to be struggling...

What do old people fear most when others talk about them?

Four words: "His strength fails his will." How utterly heartbreaking.

But the special agent didn't anticipate that with Chen Gu's arrival, those fiercely hot, radioactive powers bursting from his eyes would be so effective that the Mutant began to dissolve instantly.

And the Mutant's frenzied counterattack appeared feeble in front of Chen Gu, who easily neutralized it and still had energy to spare for a counteroffensive.

Under the 'Nuclear Melting Ray Eyes,' that black flesh mountain rapidly "melted" away, just like a snow-capped mountain under the blazing sun.

The special agent's admiration was clearly evident in his eyes.

Gong Shuxu felt the pressure lift off him after Chen Gu arrived, finally allowing himself to catch his breath. But when the old man turned around, he saw the special agent he had been protecting looking at Chen Gu with such fervent eyes...

Comparing their "achievements" in battle, the old man felt like shutting down completely. He could already imagine the belief being infinitely reinforced in the mind of the special agent he had worked so hard to save: 'Psychological Spies' really aren't suited for frontal combat. The results of a Sixth Energy Level aren't as good as a Third Energy Level 'Radiation Missionary.'

The old man was weary in his heart.

Chen Gu's 'Nuclear Melting Ray Eyes' lasted a full three minutes before finally extinguishing. He closed his eyes for a moment's relief, and his 'Radiation Field' opened up simultaneously.

The entire underground hall, where the launcher was located, was now almost completely under his control.

Within those black biological tissues, Dr. Meng Ji and the others who were trapped were not in immediate danger. This Mutant was very cunning, not eager to feast on its spoils. It had "evenly distributed" these people within its body so that in battle, no matter where Gong Shuxu attacked, he risked injuring his own people.

But Chen Gu was different. His 'Nuclear Melting Ray Eyes' were highly precise. If Chen Gu wished, he could even use them like a scalpel to remove the black biological tissue from Dr. Meng Ji and the others, bit by bit.

However, using the 'Nuclear Melting Ray Eyes' was extremely taxing for Chen Gu.

The Mutant, sensing Chen Gu was growing weak, seized the opportunity. A black wave, carrying sharp, piercing screams, surged from its body and rushed towards him from all directions.

Seeing Chen Gu needed a breather, Gong Shuxu was about to step forward and block for him, to buy him time, but then he heard Chen Gu say, "Please, senior, retreat for now!"

The two had fought side by side many times, and Gong Shuxu had complete trust in him. So, without a second thought, he grabbed the special agent behind him, and the two of them rapidly retreated.

Chen Gu stepped forward once more to take Gong Shuxu's place. Watching as the black waves rushed toward him, ready to knock him down and drown him, his body suddenly became blistering hot, and a rich, dark red light emerged—so intense that it formed a thick layer of light and fire drifting around his body.

WHOOSH—

Scorching power radiated from Chen Gu as the center, instantly charring, collapsing, and scattering the black waves...

This was one of Chen Gu's seldom-used Professional Skills: 'Radiation Scouring.'

With Chen Gu's current strength, this skill was no longer like when he first acquired his Profession, capable only of emitting a bit of radiation. Now, it produced a genuine 'melting' effect.

Step by step, Chen Gu pressed forward. The power of 'Radiation Scouring' was persistent and unending, forcing the black flesh mountain to retreat before him.

Even so, its colossal body continued to be scorched and collapse under Chen Gu's relentless assault. Chen Gu reached out, and the 'Riverwash Sword' appeared in his grasp.

The power of 'Radiation Scouring' extended to the sword. Aided by the perception from his 'Radiation Field,' Chen Gu knew he was nearing a trapped person. His sword swung with precision, stripping away all the black tissue encasing the individual. Then, with his other hand, he pressed lightly, considerably reducing the strength of 'Radiation Scouring' to thoroughly "cleanse" them. Any residual black tissue clinging to them was completely melted away.

With a nudge of his heel, Chen Gu sent the person flying out to land next to Gong Shuxu.
