At this time, Ji Dong regretted that he had only practiced archery instead of gymnastics since he was a child. Otherwise, it would have been much easier to do these sets of movements.
Fortunately, his upper body strength was very good, and his well-trained body had a much stronger sense of balance than most people’s. Although the movements he made were not comparable to those of the professional athletes in gymnastics teams, he was still able to consecutively somersault himself upwards to climb up to the Skeleton Monster’s skull.
The monster, of course, noticed the cricket-like human on its head.
It reached out with a hand and tried to tear off the small man who was picking at its skull.
However, its bones had developed uneven protrusions after it had grown ten times larger than it initially had been.
Its skull was swollen so much that it made its white bone claws look short and thin, and when it raised its hands, its scapular joints would be blocked by its extraordinarily enormous jaws, making it impossible for its fingers to reach the uppermost part of its head.
Ji Dong saw this weakness just in time, lying on top of the monster’s head in a half-crouched position, forcing his legs to clamp onto the protruding bone spurs, he barely kept himself secure. He extended his arms, attempting to penetrate its head with his hands.
His original intention was to destroy the monster’s brain at a very close distance.
It was a pity, however, that although this position was safe, the cranial bones under his feet were tightly closed, and there was not a single gap that allowed him to reach the brain.
At this point, the monster moved.
It seemed to have guessed Ji Xiao‘niao’s intention, and began to shake its head vigorously, trying to throw the young man off its head.
“Ren Jianmo!”
Ji Dong leaned down, like a spider, and stuck his whole body to the top of the monster’s brain, desperately trying to keep his balance, and opened his mouth to shout.
“Hurry up! Hurry!”
As soon as his words fell, he heard a clear “pop” sound in the air, and the second and third rows of UV light lit up.
The current intensity of UV light in the room was enough for even Ji Dong and other ordinary humans to feel their skin burning and stinging.
But no one cared whether it would burn, blister, peel, or even hurt their own flesh, as long as this huge monster could be killed.
The creature shrieked and moved erratically as if it had fallen into a pool of acid. After all the UV lights in the laboratory were switched on, the entire body, as long as there were still soft tissues, would exude white smoke.
The monster was like a human who could still feel pain as its entire skeleton curled up to avoid the direct rays of the UV light.

At the moment it instinctively lowered its head, Ji Dong gritted his teeth and jumped, landing on his buttocks, and, like a slide, slid down the curvature of its skull until he reached the spot between its eyes.

The child looked expressionlessly at Ji Dong.
In those cold, wooden pupils, there was no trace of human emotion at all.
Ji Dong was stared at by such a pair of eyes.
But he didn’t have a second to waste. With one hand, he grabbed on to the diamond-shaped hole between the monster’s eyes, with the other hand, he grabbed the UV light he’d brought from the [Peach Blossom Spring], and then he used all his strength to shove his whole arm, together with the light, into the monster’s brain tissue through the diamond-shaped gap.
In that instant, Ji Dong only felt that his mind was blank.
No, it should be said that there were too many emotions and memories that could not be distinguished between truth and falsehood. While his limbs were in contact with the soft tissues of its brain, unfamiliar memories surged into his brain at a rapid speed.
For a brief moment, Ji Dong felt he was the little boy named Su Lin…
……
At the age of around three or four years old, when Su Lin was just starting to understand things, everyone in the town told him that he was not his mother’s real son, but the sinful offspring of her husband who had cheated on another woman.
Children were creatures who were prone to insecurity, especially in a closed and lonely place like Sunset Town, where no one could escape the gossip of others.
As a child, Su Lin was also sensitive, fragile, and easily provoked.
He would often quarrel with Annie, acting extremely rebellious, always asking, “Why don’t you throw me away?”
But then, as he grew older, a genetic disorder carried from his mother’s womb began to manifest itself in his tiny body. He couldn’t jump and play like his peers, and his feet became so weak that he couldn’t even walk…
The child, who was tormented by the disease and could not walk alone, realized that the stepmother, who he quarreled with every day and would drop plates and smash bowls in a fit of rage, would cry secretly behind his back.
That beautiful and strong woman who was genuinely sad every single day because of his illness ……
So the two ushered in a brief reconciliation and began to live peacefully, happily like an ordinary mother and son under the same roof.
It was a pity that such a peaceful life only lasted less than two years.
After Su Lin’s eighth birthday, his condition began to deteriorate rapidly.
The little boy reached the point where he had to use all his strength to even turn over and couldn’t hope to get up on his own.
At this point, Su Lin knew that he was not far from death.
He had another year, at most two years. He was becoming weaker day by day due to muscle atrophy all over his body, and when he finally couldn’t even lift his head up, then even breathing would become more and more difficult, until he suffocated to death…
At this time, his adoptive mother received news of a possible cure for him from her lover, but at the cost of sending the child to a Research Institute to undergo human experiments that had never been done on living people.
At the time, Annie was very hesitant.
She was very afraid that her beloved adopted son would die in a place she could not see, and this separation would become an eternal goodbye.
But Su Lin insisted on being the experiment.
He knew that his condition was already very serious and that ordinary drugs and treatments had no way to help him, so this was the only chance he had…
……
Just when Ji Dong seemed to be caught up in the raging emotions of the young boy and was almost about to lose track of who he was, he suddenly heard another voice.
It was not a human language.
To be more precise, it was a kind of bio-electric transmission.
Ji Dong felt as if he saw the interaction between the “Moon God Stone” and the “Tears of Judas”.
The “Tears of Judas” was a kind of life form, or rather, a collection of life forms that accompanied the “Moon God Stone”.
They were like coral polyps on the bottom of the sea, growing slowly around the “Moon God Stone”. When they matured, the new individual would break away from the mother organism and spread to other animals and even humans through bodily fluid infection.
However, the “Tears of Judas” could only enter into lifeforms with a high intelligence when they were around the Moon God Stone. If there was no stone, they would only reproduce lower primitive life that eroded, proliferated, and hunted with biological instinct.
But at the same time, the “Moon God Stone” was a strong constraint to the “Tears of Judas”.
They were unable to infiltrate people who had a high concentration of the “Moon God Stone” in their bodies, and when the Moon God Stone” was around, the speed of their division and proliferation slowed dramatically.
So, Su Lin, as the first human experiment, received the first injection of the “Tears of Judas” extract.
The “Tears of Judas” injected into his body, under the regular irradiation of the “Moon God Stone”, became the first complete adult of the group, that was, their “King”.
The task of the “King” was to parasitize and occupy a body that would allow it to move freely and then to multiply, reproduce, and develop more of its kind until it replaced the humans at the top of the food chain and became the master of the world…
That was why Su Lin, who was replaced by the “King”, was so obsessed with getting the “Moon God Stone” back, because only around the “Moon God Stone” could it give birth to intelligent offspring with the ability to think on their own……
……
Ji Dong’s brain was immediately filled with memories of a child and an entirely different species. Almost like an overloaded CPU, his mind almost collapsed.
Fortunately, his nerves were still strong, even if his brain was about to explode, he still bore the severe headache and tenaciously remembered what he should do now.
He gritted his teeth and pushed the UV light in his hand to the highest power.
Just listening to the sound of “Zi”, it was as if a red-hot steel fork was inserted into a piece of soft tofu, and the internal tissue of the brain irradiated by the UV light suddenly “burned”.
[Do not! Stop! Stop!]
[Quickly kill it! Just kill it!!]
Two different screams rang out in Ji Dong’s brain at the same time.
One was the shrill, almost pleading howl of a child, while the other was not a human language at all, but simply a strong will of fear and madness.
“Zizi, zizi…”
The UV light inserted into the skeleton’s brain burned the monster’s brain tissue, and at the same time made a sound as if it were about to go out due to the power overload.
[Stop! Stop! Stop!!!]
[Kill it! Please kill it! Save Annie, kill it!]
“Ahhhhhhhhh!”
Ji Dong screamed.
The monster’s claw grabbed his thigh and the tip of its claw dug deep into his flesh—it was trying to remove the damned human from its head.
Ji Dong’s eyes were glazed over with pain, and he was seeing stars. His mind was unable to think at all with the interference of two very different yet strong wills.
In just half a second, he only felt that all the cells in his body seemed to be ignited by flames, and it was incredibly hot.
Countless tiny bio-electric currents burst out and fused from the cells he’d just squeezed dry, piercing his limbs, converging in his right arm, and eventually condensing in his palm.
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!”
As he let out a scream, an electric current stronger than ever flowed out of him, sparks splashed everywhere, and directly burst the UV light in his palm.
The light tube and the glass lampshade both burst into thousands of sharp fragments, agitating the brain tissue.
The huge monster stopped moving, and then with a “bang”, it fell sideways.
Oh heck!!!! Xiao Dong are you okay!!!
Oh no, my boy! Don’t give up! Live!
Thank you for new chapter!
