Although Lin Xiaoqiang didn’t possess any offensive superpowers, he leapt forward without hesitation, relying solely on his agile reflexes and unwavering willpower. He grabbed the mysterious man's arm tightly—the one holding the remote control.
“Let go of me!” the mysterious man roared, both shocked and enraged as he struggled. Despite wearing a white lab coat, his strength was unexpectedly fierce and his movements were anything but slow. He and Lin Xiaoqiang quickly became entangled in a fierce scuffle. Lin Xiaoqiang could clearly hear the man’s rapid heartbeat and suppressed growls as they wrestled in a stalemate.
At that moment, Otaku made his move again—decisively activating his power: “Pause Time for Three Seconds.”
It was as if someone had hit the mute button on the world. Everything fell into eerie stillness. Otaku sprinted to the two combatants. But this time, instead of going for the remote, he made a completely unexpected move—he grabbed a test tube from the lab bench, one filled with a glowing pink liquid, and hurled it at the mutated animals!
Time resumed.
The liquid splashed in all directions, landing on the animals emitting that eerie pink glow. Instantly, a harsh sizzling sound filled the room, like water dropped onto a scorching hot pan. The creatures shrieked in pain, their terrifying glow quickly dimming. Their twisted expressions slowly eased into something calmer.
“What… what did you do to them?!” the mysterious man shouted in horror, eyes wide as he watched the mutated animals return to their normal forms. Disbelief was written all over his face.
Seizing the moment, Lin Xiaoqiang twisted his body, breaking free from the man’s grip. He flipped him over and slammed him to the ground with force.
“Looks like your so-called ‘Pink Mutation’ isn’t so invincible after all,” he said coldly, eyes steady. A suspicion had formed in his mind—that pink liquid might be the key to reversing the mutation.
At that moment, Wang Meili sprang into action, dashing to the lab bench to search for more test tubes. “Quick! Use all of this stuff!”
The mysterious man scrambled to get up and stop her, but Otaku lunged first, slamming an empty cage down over the man’s head with a loud clang, trapping him completely.
“Stay put, will ya!” Otaku panted, gripping the cage tightly to keep the man from moving.
As more of the pink liquid was thrown, the remaining mutated animals began to calm. The violent glow faded from their bodies, their fur returned to normal, and their once-mad eyes became clear and innocent once more. The lab, once saturated with bloodlust and tension, was now filled only with the soft whimpers and labored breathing of creatures who had barely survived.
“No… Impossible… My ‘Pink Mutation Essence’… how could this happen…” the mysterious man muttered in a daze, slumped inside the cage. His gaze was hollow, as if his entire world had collapsed.
Lin Xiaoqiang approached the large machine and inspected it carefully. Lights flickered softly as several tubes pulsed with strange energy. The control panel was covered in complex indicators and symbols.
“So this is the source of his power to control the animals and cause the mutations…” he murmured.
Suddenly, something caught his eye—a familiar spiral symbol on the panel. It was the same one he’d seen before on the black-clad man!
“I knew it… they’re connected!” Lin Xiaoqiang’s brows furrowed, a sense of unease creeping into his heart.
Though the immediate crisis had been quelled, and the Supernatural Research Club’s trio had foiled the mysterious man’s plan with courage and quick thinking—uncovering, by chance, a way to reverse the pink mutation—new questions were already emerging:6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8LLgIIU6d
The mysterious spiral symbol... the “special energy research” mentioned by the black-robed figures... and the unknown technology behind the machinery...
It all felt like just the tip of a much larger conspiracy.
