After Wang Lei created his own Gene Engine, he was so excited that he did not sleep all night. Relying on his current computing power, he began using Aether Encoding to infiltrate foreign networks.
He had not forgotten Su Mary. He still had one of Su Mary's Dark Iron Silver Daggers, and it was about time to retrieve it.
The only problem was that there were quite a lot of people named Su Mary in modern society, and to Wang Lei, Su Mary did not look all that different from an ordinary foreigner.
At most, he could add conditions such as being wealthy and lustful, then exclude those in underdeveloped regions. Even after filtering, there were still tens of thousands of registered Su Marys scattered across America and Europe in Earth's databases.
What came next could not be handled through the basic citizen data of various countries. Wang Lei had to comprehensively track the movements of those tens of thousands of Su Marys and identify anyone with abilities beyond the ordinary.
The result was simpler than Wang Lei had expected. One Su Mary was simultaneously involved with hundreds of high-quality women. Upon closer investigation, his money often came from unknown sources, he loved hosting all kinds of parties, and he enjoyed being worshipped by countless people. Most importantly, his stamina seemed terrifying—Wang Lei found records of him staying indoors for three days and three nights straight, busy with certain activities in his room.
So Wang Lei put on his exoskeleton again, activated invisibility, and spent most of the day crossing several time zones to head straight for America in search of that Su Mary.
Then Wang Lei found Su Mary in a suburban villa in America, right in the middle of a threesome. The guy had not noticed at all that Wang Lei was watching from outside.
After reading him with Aether Encoding, Wang Lei discovered that he was merely a Second Generation Super Soldier. He had probably been considered fairly impressive tens of thousands of years ago, but in the present day, any one of Keisha's guardian angels could kill him.
And for a mere Second Generation Super Soldier to have lived for so many years, it seemed Hexi had given her old lover far more than just a Dark Iron Silver Dagger.
At that moment, Wang Lei's target—the Dark Iron Silver Dagger—lay quietly atop Su Mary's bedside table. Because of its unusual appearance, it did not look like a murder weapon at all, but rather a work of art.
However, Wang Lei discovered that he could not analyze the item, and it bore Su Mary's personal imprint.
That meant Wang Lei could forget about stealing the Dark Iron Silver Dagger directly. He could only take it by force.
Since Su Mary was completely unable to detect Wang Lei, he did not realize someone was behind him until Wang Lei appeared in a gap in his movements and the woman beneath him screamed.
Wang Lei gave Su Mary no time to react. The instant he appeared, he summoned quantum energy and struck Su Mary's head, knocking him unconscious on the spot.
As for Su Mary's two playmates, after knocking Su Mary out, Wang Lei directly altered their bodily states to deep sleep, putting them completely under.
Wang Lei then took the Dark Iron Silver Dagger from the bedside table and used Aether Encoding to erase Su Mary's mental imprint from it.
Just as Wang Lei was preparing to leave, he hesitated over whether he should deal with Su Mary here and now.
Logically speaking, Su Mary would later steal Galaxy Power's genetic backup and kill everyone in a laboratory. Wang Lei should have simply eliminated him for the good of humanity.
But Wang Lei truly could not gauge Angel Hexi's attitude toward Su Mary. Normally, Hexi had already done more than enough by exiling him and giving Su Mary a Dark Iron Silver Dagger. Yet she had also granted him a lifespan far beyond that of a second-generation soldier. Clearly, she did not want him dead.
If Wang Lei really killed Su Mary, would he directly offend Hexi? Wang Lei did not want to take that risk. Mainly because that little Hexi had far too much black technology in her hands. She would not even need to kill you—she could casually come up with something that would drive a person insane.
So in the end, Wang Lei still did not kill Su Mary, even though he could have done so with a mere wave of his hand.
But he did use Aether Encoding to remove Su Mary's ability in that particular male department. From then on, even if Su Mary felt desire upon seeing a woman, he would never be able to get hard again. For him, that might have been a punishment more painful than death.
Having done his good deed, Wang Lei left without leaving his name behind. While he still had time, he made another trip to South America, then flew to Africa and Europe as well, so that if he ever needed to rush to those places in the future, he would not be unable to open a gap due to lacking coordinates.
Only after finishing all that did Wang Lei return to the shop to sleep. He did not care that it was still daytime—he had not slept for two days.
But as if heaven were playing a joke on him, Wang Lei estimated that he had slept for only an hour before the alarm he had set woke him up.
When he looked, he was stunned. It was the Spacetime Fluctuation Detector near Huang Village. Morgana had arrived.
Wang Lei did not dare to delay in the slightest. He became fully alert at once.
This time, he did not put on the exoskeleton. In front of Morgana, that exoskeleton was no different from paper, and it could easily expose him. Wang Lei still remembered that Angel Yan had tracked the exoskeleton back to his shop.
So Wang Lei directly opened a gap and arrived at Huang Village. The moment he landed, he heard Morgana cursing "bitch" from far away. Peeking out slightly from behind a wall, he saw Morgana furiously stomping on the Spacetime Fluctuation Detector he had set up, cursing as she stomped.
"Bitch, bitch! Those little bitches actually tried to screw the Queen with this kind of antique! Don't let the Queen find out who came up with this rotten idea!! Otherwise, the Queen will tear her into eight pieces!!"
Wang Lei felt a chill run down his back. He was not surprised that Morgana could detect the Spacetime Fluctuation Detector. After all, she was the ancestor of spatial manipulation.
But Wang Lei had not expected Morgana to be this furious. Just how afraid was she of her sister, Queen Keisha? She had merely thought that the angels had detected her, yet she was already this enraged.
By then, Morgana's actions had drawn the onlookers of Huang Village. Her hair was disheveled, she wore smoky makeup, huge Demon wings spread from her back, and her tight leather outfit had a plunging neckline that exposed half of each of her impressive assets. Combined with her unhinged appearance...
How could Huang Village's simple, honest villagers have ever seen such a sight? Some middle-aged women were already criticizing Queen Morgana for dressing indecently.
There were even old men shouting, "Can't look, can't look," while their eyes were practically glued to her.
As for the young people, there was no need to mention them. The men could barely look away, while the women were mostly taking pictures with their phones, ready to post them on their social feeds.
But Wang Lei was actually trembling behind the wall. Just now, he had attempted to analyze Morgana using Aether Encoding. Yet the moment his Gene Engine entered the Dark Dimension to call upon quantum calculations for assistance...
Wang Lei saw an unimaginably tall phantom rise behind Morgana. It was clearly her Dark Dimension projection. Fortunately, he had been analyzing her with Aether Encoding, so he had not triggered the alarm in Morgana's Dark Dimension. Otherwise, Wang Lei would have already been discovered.
Even so, the pressure naturally radiating from Morgana's Dark Dimension was enough to make Wang Lei feel as though he could barely breathe. It felt much like when he had accidentally entered Raiden Ei's Plane of Euthymia and received that glare from her.
