Li Chen learned that the five Third Generation Zombie skeletons could regenerate, but neither the scientists nor the shelter had a safe way to use or destroy them. After the scientists left, Noah identified the skeleton material as supernova remnants commonly used by Level 1.5 Universe Civilizations.

• Li Chen examined the five growing skeletons and realized they could regenerate into new Third Generation Zombies if left intact.
• Li Zhongcheng explained that the scientists could not analyze the bones, and breaking them could unleash enough energy to obliterate the Second Continent.

• Li Chen ordered Noah to scan the skeletons, and Noah reported that their material came from supernova remnants and was used by Level 1.5 Universe Civilizations.

Li Chen used drops of Favorability Potion on the five Third Generation Zombie Skeletons, hoping to control them when they revived. Noah warned that they would revive in ten hours and revealed dormant, damaged Nanobots on their bones, leaving their connection to Hua Ju Laboratory uncertain.

• Noah explained that the destroyed Third Generation Zombies had once contained dormant Nanobots, but confirmed that none had been implanted in the skeletons.

• Noah triggered a mission for Li Chen to use Evolution Fluid to awaken the Third Generation Zombies, offering rewards upon completion.

Li Chen awakened five Third Generation Zombies with Intermediate Evolution Fluid and discovered that the Favorability Potion made them loyal to him. He named the largest Big One and appointed the other four as his personal guards, calling them the Four Great Vajra.
