The intense light and energy fluctuations inside the laboratory came to an abrupt halt, as if everything that had just happened was merely an illusion.
After wildly fluctuating, the various readings on the instruments quickly returned to zero.
The black stone that served as the core component emitted a faint "CRACK" before completely disintegrating into a pile of unremarkable black powder, which drifted down softly.
On the platform, the reclining chair remained cold. The incomparably handsome man lying on it had lost all consciousness. His chest no longer rose and fell, as if he were just a perfect vessel that had lost its soul.
The laboratory fell deathly silent, with only the faint "BEEP BEEP" of the cooling instruments remaining.
Everyone stared blankly at the empty reclining chair, their hearts filled with a whirlwind of complex emotions.
