I’m A Wasteland Giant

Chapter 30: Chapter 30: A Weakness of the Bug

At the edge of the Arctic Circle, this is the boundary of the midnight sun. From this line southward, there are both day and night.

Lu Zhou was currently conducting an experiment around a sleeping insect.

Upon hearing that the insect sleeps during the day, he immediately asked the leader for a plane, brought his subordinates and a team of guards and came here.

At this moment, the insect had been controlled by a large crane on a machine, with countless ropes wrapped around it.

Lu Zhou’s experiment was straightforward, constantly sending people to drive the insect to places where there was no sunlight and then back to places with sunlight, for comparison.

The other serious researchers and guards were clueless about his intentions.

“Director Lu, what is this experiment for…?” The deputy director of the research institute was somewhat puzzled, not knowing what the young man, who had taken the position of the director, was up to.

Lu Zhou glanced at him, and then at the curious crowd beside him, indifferently saying, “I am trying to determine whether it is the night or the sunlight that causes the insect’s sleep…’

“During the experiment, we exposed this insect to different environments…”

“In areas with sunlight, despite placing these insects indoors and blocking all sources of light, this insect is still in deep sleep…”

“But in areas without sunlight, even if we shine the strongest and brightest objects on this insect, it remains very active…”

“What does this indicate?”

The deputy director was taken aback, “So the insect is afraid of sunlight?” Lu Zhou slightly shook his head, “Yes, and no!”

He began to explain, ‘We know of dark matter because it exists and can’t be detected by any human instrument. Its existence is made apparent by astronomical observations that violate Newton’s law of universal gravitation, which can be very well-explained under the premise of dark matter existence.”

“Now, the world has changed, and dark matter has emerged, directly affecting our world…’

After a while, Lu Zhou realized he had digressed and after coughing, he continued, “Since dark matter exists, could there be something like visible matter; let’s call it yang matter?”

“What I’m doing here is to initially confirm that there’s indeed a solar matter in the air which is invisible to the human eye and undetectable by instruments…”

“Now let me elaborate, suppose there has always been a yang matter layer in our solar system that blocks the invasion of dark matter and protects the ecosystem within the solar system…”

“But one day, the living beings in the solar system, while exploring the universe, accidentally broke that layer, causing the dark matter that filled the universe to immediately seep into the solar system…”

“Once the sunlight on Earth disappeared, these insects, which need to breathe dark matter, became active. And when the sun rises, under the sunshine, the Yang matter drives away the dark matter, and these insects fall into a deep sleep.

The deputy director furrowed his brows and shook his head, “That’s not possible. How would you explain the spatial channels?”

His current knowledge didn’t allow him to believe that this was true, despite him not being able to rebut it.

“I can’t explain the spatial channels right now, but I can assume that there are two layers to our universe. One is the visible universe where we live, and the other is the dark universe where the insects live. The dark matter opened a channel between the two worlds!”

At this moment, the vehicle entered an area without sunlight again, and the insect at the back of the vehicle gradually woke up, its body twisting constantly within a pile of ropes.

“Of course, you can also assume that these insects are of a higher intelligence and there are insects among them that can open spatial channels. This might be an invasion on Earth!”

Upon saying this, Lu Zhou paused for a moment, the corners of his mouth curving upwards as he broke into a smile, “I think I may have found a weakness in these insects!”

While he was speaking, he called for the vehicle to stop, then walked to the front of the insect with a pair of big scissors.

“What kind of weakness?” Not only did the deputy director and other researchers pay attention to this, even the security team members were also drawn in.

Lu Zhou suddenly radiated a brilliant smile, “These insects are definitely dark matter creatures. In the absence of dark matter, they’re as blind as we are in the dark!”

Next, he took the big scissors and cut directly at the insect’s antennae.

“Snip!”

“Snip!”

After two snips, both the antennae on the insect’s head were cut off and fell to the ground.

“These antennae are their ‘eyes’ for sensing the world. Without them, they are blind!”

Sure enough, the insect, which had been struggling at first, stopped immediately after its antennae were Clit off and became cnmnlptplv still

Seeing this fantastic sight, everyone instinctively looked up at the sky.

Upon confirming that there was no sunlight, everyone became excited. “Great! Does this mean that if we cut off their antennae, they will die?”

“No, they just can’t see or hear and think it’s nighttime. They will still struggle if you try to move them!”

Having said this, Lu Zhou kicked the insect, which indeed began to struggle again.

The city of Nanyuan.

“Damn insects!”

A policeman was standing in front of a sleeping insect, kicking it to vent his anger.

Yesterday, quite a few of his colleagues lost their lives to these insects.

Chu Zixuan glanced at him and reminded him, “I think you’d better not do this. The insect is not dead, just asleep…’

He didn’t know about the conclusions that Director Lu Zhou had reached, but he knew that every time the insect was cut, it woke up!

Sure enough, before he had finished speaking, the sleeping insect started to struggle and pounced at the policeman.

“Watch out!”

Everyone exclaimed.

Seeing this, Chu Zixuan didn’t have time to think, he spread his mental power instantly and threw out a sharp knife.

The moment he spread his mental power, he got a grip on the situation around him.

What surprised him was that Du Gang showed no reaction at this moment.

He didn’t show any signs of transforming!

Chu Zixuan even saw the look of panic Du Gang put on his face…

Too heartless!

At the time he thought of all this, the knife he controlled with his mind had just flown into the air and was still some distance from the insect.

Just then, a flash of light suddenly lit up, and the pouncing motion of the insect over there suddenly slowed down.

The policeman took this opportunity to sit down hurriedly, wriggled a few times towards the back, and quickly escaped the range of the insect’s attack.

Everyone quickly looked at the source of the light. At this moment, the young and beautiful policewoman Su Qi was pointing towards the sky, and an exceptionally bright and dazzling light was shining at her fingertips.

The feeling of this light shining on the human body was very comfortable, just like being bathed in sunlight.

Just now, it was Su Qi using her superpower that had saved the policeman!
