Trickster Hunter.

Chapter 333: Photosensitivity Mutation

According to Article 4717 of Chapter of the "Weird Research Institute Field Department Operator Operations Manual Latest Revised Edition", when field operators face unknown weird things, the use of long-range weapons has a much higher priority than melee weapons, and direct contact with weird things must be avoided as much as possible unless necessary.

Although the radius in Ling Xiao's hand had returned to normal, he did not rush up to fight with this "woman". Instead, he jumped off the bed without hesitation and cut open his aluminum suitcase with a knife.

A pile of stacked clothes fell out of the box. Ling Xiao was quick-witted and picked up the tactical flashlight that rolled out along with the clothes. He directly adjusted it to the highest intensity strobe mode, pointed the light at the "woman", and turned on the switch!
A strong light flashed out, and even Ling Xiao, who was not directly exposed to the light, subconsciously squinted his eyes.

The "woman" who was directly exposed to the strong light let out a shrill scream, her skin began to fester and fester, and a pungent odor filled the room.

She waved her limbs wildly, tearing the sheets and quilts into pieces. The cotton filling inside flew everywhere, and under the light of the flashlight, it looked like a heavy snowfall.

Ling Xiao, holding a flashlight, took a step back and glanced at the door out of the corner of his eye.

Although the "woman" in front of him looked extremely painful, Ling Xiao's intuition told him that she had not suffered any substantial trauma - although the strong light could cause strong stimulation to her, it could not kill her, but instead angered her.

Ling Xiao had just taken a small step towards the door when the "woman" without a jaw stopped screaming - she twisted her neck and stared at Ling Xiao with her red eyes.

……

Tianshu Tower, Containment Area No. 2.

"I say, why do you still look so sad?" Sun Hang nudged Yuri with his elbow. "Didn't you say that containment No. 549 is very weak? With the security force of Chunming City, you can encounter patrolling sheriffs with weapons every two steps. If this guy runs away, isn't he seeking his own death?"

"Very weak... That means under suitable containment conditions. But if it escapes..." Yuri sighed again, "I haven't told you about the special nature of containment No. 549, right?"

"Will you become very irritable when exposed to light?" Sun Hang asked puzzledly.

"If she would become violent just by being exposed to light, she wouldn't be contained here..." Yuri shook his head. "The most special thing about the meme of containment No. 549 is that once the body tissue is exposed to light, it will quickly begin to mutate. The higher the light intensity, the faster the mutation speed and the more severe the mutation... If we let it escape, no one knows what kind of monster it will become when we find it again."

"Is there such ability?" Sun Hang immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.

Although it is now night, for Chunming, a city that never sleeps, there are lights everywhere outside. The bustling commercial streets are filled with various advertising screens and neon signs, and the high-brightness street lights make the entire city look like daylight.

The intensity of light received when standing under those street lamps is even stronger than standing in the midday sun.

At this time, Chunming City's excellent infrastructure construction has become the biggest help in the mutation of Object No. 549.

"So, we have to find it as soon as possible." Yuri said, "Every minute it disappears, the risk will increase exponentially... If we can't find it within 24 hours, the consequences will be disastrous."

"...If Anna intervened, then where would she put object No. 549?" Sun Hang couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration came to his mind. "Where is Ling Xiao now?" Sun Hang asked immediately.

"Uh... Are you talking about the boy who took the same flight as you and came to do the psychic test?" Yuri was slightly startled. "If nothing unexpected happened, he should be in Mudanpo on the outskirts of the city. The psychic management department's test site is built there... What happened?"

"Contact Mudanpo immediately and ask them..."

Before Sun Hang finished speaking, Yuri's cell phone suddenly rang.

Yuri looked down and saw that the call was from Sun Qiong, deputy leader of the No. 1 working group of the Superpower Management Department.

It was this woman who had taken Ling Xiao away earlier.

The two looked at each other, and Yuri silently pressed the hands-free button.

"Excuse me, are you Yuri Ivanov, the person in charge of the containment zone?" Sun Qiong's tone was urgent, and he even ignored Yuri's middle name.

"It's me, what happened?"

"The Mudanpo test base detected a memetic reaction to a strange creature. After comparing it with the database, it was found that the reaction frequency was basically consistent with the known strange creature '丙二９５０·詹妍'. When I was browsing the strange creature's files, I found that the strange creature was contained in the No. 2 containment area of ​​the headquarters. The containment number is '549-549', so I need to confirm with you whether containment No. is..."

Before Sun Qiong finished her words, Yuri interrupted her: "To be honest, just ten minutes ago, Object 549 broke through containment in a way we cannot understand, and left no trace! Please immediately control the area where the object is located, and my people will rush over immediately. In addition, please cut off all power supplies in the area where the object is located, and turn off all luminous devices... Light will make Object 549 go berserk and accelerate its memetic mutation. This is not indicated in the low-security files!"

"Understood!" Sun Qiong said. The next second, Yuri and Sun Hang heard her shouting to the people around her, "Quick! Cut off the power supply to Building 3 now! The entire base will enter the strictest blackout! Provide all personnel with head-mounted night vision goggles! Do it now!!"

"Captain Sun Qiong," Yuri said again, "Can you tell us about the current status of containment No. 549? If its mutation is not serious, your armed forces should be able to subdue it."

"We haven't seen Object 549!" Sun Qiong said helplessly. "About six minutes ago, Building 549 was suddenly isolated by an invisible force. People inside couldn't get out, and people outside couldn't get in... We can only determine through memetic fluctuations that the exact location of Object 608 should be in Room ... But there are currently no armed personnel in Building , and we can't let people in the building go to the room to investigate..."

"What is Room 608 used for?" Yuri asked immediately.

"It's a guest room for temporary staff..." Sun Qiong replied.

"Is Ling Xiao in there?" Sun Hang's voice interrupted.

"How do you know? Wait... is it Mr. Sun Hang?"
