This was a researcher under Dr. Meng Ji. Gong Shuxu immediately took control of him, planning to conduct a thorough check on these people once the event concluded.

The black Meat Mountain trembled violently, emitting sharp screeches, appearing extremely angry. Yet, it was completely helpless against Chen Gu. Due to its nature, it needed physical contact to cause contamination, and Chen Gu gave it no such opportunity. Moreover, for some reason, ever since Chen Gu appeared, it had faintly sensed a terrifying danger, as if this person was its natural nemesis.

Chen Gu, relying on Radiation Scouring, forcefully advanced twenty meters, effectively reducing the Meat Mountain's massive body by a full twenty meters. At this point, the Radiation Scouring ability finally ended.

The black Meat Mountain was ecstatic. It must devour this detestable creature! It rolled up waves of flesh to crush him, determined to make him a part of its body. This creature's power is so strong; it will surely enable me to evolve! But as the waves of flesh began to swell, Chen Gu suddenly opened his eyes, and his Nuclear Fusion Laser Eyes activated once again.

BOOM—

This time, Chen Gu was not firing aimlessly. He had already located the 'core' of this Mutant using the Radiation Field. For such Mutants, the so-called 'core' was actually their primary consciousness.

The Nuclear Fusion Laser Eyes burned through the thick black tissues. The instant Chen Gu unleashed them, he switched to Isabella Wu's memories. The Brain Domain Hacker ability was fully activated, sending forth a Psychic Storm.

BOOM!

The Mutant's primary consciousness was instantly blasted into pieces. Chen Gu didn't bother to check the results, immediately switching his memory back to Milna Katerina and launching a second Radiation Scouring!

I feel like I'm burning alive! Chen Gu felt scorching heat all over his body, but he gritted his teeth and persisted. This is a test of willpower! Who will break first? The searing power activated again, and Chen Gu, wielding the Riverwash Sword, charged through the colossal Meat Mountain!

After its primary consciousness was shattered, the Mutant did not die immediately. After all, this was no ordinary Mutant; it lacked an absolute 'vital spot.' The disintegration of its primary consciousness merely left the Mutant in a stunned state. The massive Meat Mountain became inert. Without the restraint of its primary consciousness, the black biological tissues began to flow and disperse.

Chen Gu swiftly cleared away the black tissues, using the Riverwash Sword to rescue the hostages, one by one, who were held captive by the Mutant. When he reached the seventh hostage, he finally found Dr. Meng Ji. Chen Gu quietly breathed a sigh of relief. After kicking Dr. Meng Ji clear with his heel, he noted the entire Mutant was still struggling to reconsolidate its consciousness.

Afterward, Chen Gu rescued the remaining three hostages. He then swung his sword, carving a path through the black Mutant directly to the generator. Then, Chen Gu's second Radiation Scouring ended. With blue smoke rising from his body, he dashed into the generator.

The space was already packed with the Mutant's mass. Enduring intense physical discomfort, Chen Gu switched to Derek Kun Shen's memories. With a press of his hands, he activated Quantum Teleportation, transporting all parts of the Mutant within the generator out!

If Chen Gu hadn't shattered the Mutant's primary consciousness, this operation would never have succeeded. But now, the Mutant's body was on the verge of disintegrating, allowing him to smoothly transfer this portion of its tissue. This bizarre maneuver caused the Mutant, which was about to reform its primary consciousness, to falter momentarily, further slowing its recovery.

Chen Gu quickly surveyed his surroundings. Just as I guessed! Sure enough, some materials needed for empowerment remained inside the generator, all related to super-life materials! Chen Gu sat in the generator's core position. Then, with a press of his hands, he 'ignited' those materials. Enduring his body's discomfort, he initiated Radiation Scouring for the third time!

With the boost from these materials and the amplification from the generator itself, this Radiation Scouring—though somewhat weakened by Chen Gu's condition—actually exhibited far greater power than the previous two.

WHOOSH—

A torrent of fiery light swept out. The Mutant's mass was all around the generator. Having just begun to reform its primary consciousness, it screamed sharply as it started to disintegrate, layer by layer, within the Radiation Scouring.

Chen Gu released his hands and switched to his Quantum Wizard aspect, performing a Quantum Teleportation to transport himself outside the hall. If the Mutant isn't completely dead, Gong Shuxu will have to handle the rest. Great Actor Chen can do no more. He had already handled the most difficult part. Thus, even if some cleanup tasks remained, they shouldn't pose a challenge to a Sixth Energy Level Psychological Spy, who was supposedly 'not adept at head-on combat.'

Gong Shuxu was also ready to take over. However, they had both overestimated the Mutant and underestimated Chen Gu. Outside the generator, layers of the Mutant's burnt black biological tissue turned to ash and fluttered down. Without a physical entity to inhabit, the consciousnesses from the Endless Realm let out frustrated roars as they were pulled back by the force of some worldly law.

Yet, Gong Shuxu dared not slack off in the slightest. The entities of the Endless Realm were always enigmatic and unpredictable. This might look like a loss for them, but they could still be hiding some unknown schemes. He immediately called the Bureau of Mystic Security, "Send out the highest-level cleanup crew immediately!"

"Seal off all involved floors! No one in the base is to approach without permission! Violators will be dealt with as Mutants!"

The commands were issued crisply and decisively. Chen Gu was gasping for breath from exhaustion, feeling helpless. Who knows how long this cleanup and investigation will take? Will I have to postpone my second match?

Under Gong Shuxu's command, a special operative from a nearby warehouse procured safety restraints and clamped them on all the 'hostages.' They had all been in close contact with the Mutant and were therefore at extremely high risk of contamination. These safety restraints were specifically designed for individuals who had come into contact with Mutants. They were equipped with special helmets that prevented the wearer from communicating with the outside world through facial expressions, breath, or speech.

Gong Shuxu specifically explained to Dr. Meng Ji, "Doctor, this accident is very serious; you know the rules—you don't have to answer me, don't nod, don't do anything."

Then, without waiting for Dr. Meng Ji to react, he snapped the helmet onto him.
