Since he returned from the White Capital, Mu Yuntian had been unlucky for the past few days.
When he walked on the streets, flower pots would fall. When he walked next to the construction site, bricks would fly over. When he did not walk, he would encounter all sorts of birds, causing a pile of bird feces with feathers on them.
Those were not the worst. What bothered him the most was that the laboratory would explode every time he did an experiment. When he dissected a dead body, his hand would be cut open. Later on, when he went to the office to deal with the documents, there was a fire that destroyed many of the documents. Even his Emperor's Heart Ring malfunctioned, causing many of the documents to be lost.
"Can't you be more careful these few days?! Look at the state you've been in these past few days. You've already blown up the laboratory eleven times. In the office, the white-haired Si Nan was scolding Mu Yuntian. "Do you have something against me? Why did you make such a scene on purpose?!"
"No … No." Mu Yuntian lowered his head. He did not know why, but he had been unlucky for the past few days. Wherever he walked, everything he did would collapse, and he could not do anything!
"A few days ago, even the demigod's dead body was taken away. What else can you do?" Si Nan continued to scold him.
Mu Yuntian could only listen with his head lowered. Under his gold-rimmed glasses, there was doubt in his eyes. "Could it be that I got tainted by something unclean? I can't go on like this. I need to get an exorcist to take a look … "
Life Power was a magical thing. Life Power could be converted into negative Life Power after the death of a living being. Such negative Life Power usually came with a strange curse effect or other negative effects. Most people could not see it with their naked eyes. Only an exorcist could see it and only an exorcist could remove it.
The strange situation these two days made Mu Yuntian suspect that he might have been tainted by something like that.
"Oh yeah, did you find anything from the two dead bodies?" After scolding for more than 10 minutes, Si Nan remembered what he wanted to talk about.
"I tried to break into their brains with my ability, but it didn't work at all. The team is trying to figure out a way to decipher it …" Mu Yuntian did not dare to tell him that the two dead bodies were almost destroyed by the fire in the laboratory two days ago.
"Alright, the corpse is in our hands anyway, so there's no rush to crack the brain domain. Take your time and be safe. Don't damage the body … "As soon as Si Nan finished speaking, he suddenly frowned and asked," What's that sound? "
"What's that sound?" Mu Yuntian was startled. He had also heard the rumbling sound, and he immediately felt a sense of unease in his heart.
At this moment, the entire base was filled with alarms.
A somewhat panicked voice came from the monitoring room. "A massive meteor shower has arrived in this area where the base is located. Just now, a giant meteor hit the Skeleton Island above us. One-third of the island has collapsed …"
"The Skeleton Island has collapsed?"
Mu Yuntian and Si Nan's expressions changed drastically. They hurriedly summoned a portal and stepped into it.
In the next instant, the two of them appeared in the sky above Skull Island. One-third of the massive northern side of the island had already collapsed, exposing the buildings inside the island. Seeing this, the two of them looked extremely grim.
Even the buildings were exposed, which meant that the Coalition government and other forces could find out at any time. This base, which had been painstakingly built for dozens of years, was now in ruins.
In the sky, the group of meteors was still falling. Some continued to hit the Skeleton Island, while some directly hit the sea, setting off huge waves.
"Leave this to me. You go down and take the two corpses away. We can't let anything happen to them!" Si Nan soared into the sky and pointed his fingers one after another. Streaks of black light shot out from his fingers, shattering the meteors one after another.
Mu Yuntian did not hesitate at all. He summoned a portal again and stepped into it.
As soon as he returned to the base at the bottom of the sea, Mu Yuntian found that the entire base was filled with the smell of smoke and fire. He immediately grabbed a panicked staff member and asked, "What happened?"
"I guess the shock just now caused a few lights to burst and caused a fire. Many surveillance snails have retreated into their shells to take refuge. Most of the screens in the monitoring room are black. We still don't know where the source of the fire is … "
"Useless thing!" Mu Yuntian broke the staff member's neck and rushed to the lab where the corpses were kept.
When he arrived at the entrance of the lab, he saw smoke coming out of the door. His heart skipped a beat.
He pressed his fingerprint to unlock the door. However, the door did not open. Instead, there was a warning sound that said 'equipment failure'.
"F * ck!"
Mu Yuntian did not expect such a problem to occur at this moment. He punched the door twice, but it did not budge at all. He then recalled that the door was made of a special meteoric metal to prevent thieves. It was as strong as a supreme relic, so it could not be opened by force.
"Sir, the door of the lab where the corpses are kept is broken. I can't open it." Mu Yuntian had no choice but to ask Si Nan for help.
"Can't you break the wall if the door can't be opened? Did a donkey kick you in the head these few days?! "Si Nan shouted angrily.
Mu Yuntian was stunned to hear that. He then recalled that the door was made of meteoric metal, but the wall next to it was not. After hanging up the call, he broke the wall immediately with a punch. Thick smoke came out of the hole in the wall.
Mu Yuntian could not care less as he entered the lab immediately.
The lab was a mess, and the two corpses were completely engulfed by the fire. Mu Yuntian's heart sank when he saw that. He immediately extinguished the fire and put the corpses into his storage space without even looking at how badly they were burned.
When he came out of the lab, he immediately took the two corpses out to check on them.
The corpses were burnt black. It seemed like the fire had happened long before the fire broke out. Moreover, the automatic fire extinguisher in the lab seemed to have malfunctioned, causing the two corpses to be burnt to such a state.
Mu Yuntian wanted to cry but had no tears as he looked at the charred brains of the two corpses.
Suddenly, the base shook again. Before Mu Yuntian could react, the ceiling above his head collapsed. Mu Yuntian dodged it, and the heads of the two corpses were smashed into pieces …
"…"
Mu Yuntian was dumbfounded. If there was a slight possibility of saving the charred brains, then the smashed brains were completely useless now.
"I've taken care of the meteorite, but this base is completely destroyed." After a while, a voice was heard coming from behind Mu Yuntian. It was getting closer and closer. "Where are the two corpses?"
Before Mu Yuntian could answer, Si Nan saw the two charred corpses. His heart sank. "Don't tell me that the two corpses …"
"I'm sorry, sir …" Mu Yuntian did not expect things to turn out this way. He felt like crying.
