Why Was the Meeting Deciding Earth's Fate Being Held by Two Groups of Aliens?

Wang Lei ultimately succeeded in testing the effects of Fleeting Blessing. He had finally remembered that he still had the Dark Iron Silver Dagger as a trump card.

The Dark Iron Silver Dagger could still easily cut through his flesh. So Wang Lei went to the bathroom and, in an exceptionally self-destructive move, stabbed himself several times. At first, he targeted non-vital areas with plenty of flesh.

When he saw that the wounds healed virtually the instant the dagger was pulled out, he tried stabbing his intestines a few times. Seeing that those also recovered quickly, he shifted his gaze farther downward.

All right, Wang Lei did not dare experiment there. This was already enough. The bathroom now looked like a murder scene, with blood everywhere.

At that moment, Wang Lei discovered another advantage of Aether Encoding: once configured, it could directly block his perception of pain. Otherwise, how could he possibly have casually stabbed himself over and over?

However, through this experiment, Wang Lei also realized that he would never need to worry about anemia again. Fleeting Blessing's effect inside the body was comparable to rewinding time and space.

After losing so much blood, he showed no signs of blood loss at all. Aether Encoding even detected that the amount of blood in Wang Lei's body was still at the standard level. It was as if none of that blood had come from him.

Still, Wang Lei was somewhat uneasy and wanted to see how a God-Slaying Weapon would affect him. Strictly speaking, his body was not a divine body. A God-Slaying Weapon had no special advantage against him. But he had to test it before he could rest easy.

So Wang Lei hacked into Deno No. 3 again. As the Stellaron's power increased once more, its energy supply efficiency also multiplied. Along with that, the number of quanta his quantum Gene Engine could control increased drastically, and its computational power was now approaching that of a celestial supercomputer.

Deno No. 3 had now completely become a sieve before Wang Lei. It was like his own backyard—he could enter whenever he wanted.

But the moment he hacked into Deno No. 3, Wang Lei noticed something was wrong. Deno No. 3 had entered wartime support mode. Hadn't the Taotie invasion begun yet?

After looking into it closely, he discovered that the story had progressed to the point where the Super Soldier Company was undergoing Sun Wukong's trial. The Super Soldier Company was currently following their training plan and slowly approaching Sun Wukong.

Seeing this, Wang Lei relaxed. He had just thought that the Taotie had launched their attack early because of what had happened at Feiliu District Airport and with Soton.

Since it was Sun Wukong's trial, Wang Lei did not want to interfere. The Super Soldier Company really was just a bunch of useless trash right now. They needed Sun Wukong to teach them a lesson. In any case, no one would die.

But on second thought, wasn't Leina holding a civilization conference with Angel Yan while the Super Soldier Company fought Sun Wukong?

It really was tragic when he thought about it. A conference about Earth's civilization was being held, yet neither side included a single Earthling.

At that thought, Wang Lei could no longer sit still. He could not let the angels and Blazing Sun truly think that Earth had no one. Since he intended to join this game among the gods, he naturally had to make his stance clear. So he began searching Deno No. 3 for the location of Angel Yan and Leina's meeting.

Fortunately, Deno No. 3 had been recording the meeting from the start. Wang Lei quickly found the meeting location's IP address, then used the IP to locate the corresponding terminal. It was in a conference room within the Super God Academy.

This was the classic method of tracking someone down through the internet cable. After confirming the location, Wang Lei directly teleported through a spatial gap to the vicinity of the Super God Academy. He then used Aether Encoding to teleport himself inside.

At that moment, Angel Yan and Leina had just finished a round of verbal sparring, establishing one as a little girl and the other as an old hag.

Wang Lei appeared through quantum teleportation right then. Looking at the somewhat bewildered pair, he casually dragged over a chair and sat in the middle of the conference table. Looking from one to the other, he asked, "How about adding me to a discussion about Earth?"

The moment Wang Lei sat down, the people guarding the conference room outside threw open the door and rushed in. They had no idea what had happened. They had only heard the observers exclaim through their earpieces, "How did he appear?" so they rushed in to take a look.

Wang Lei had no interest in explaining himself to the people from the Super God Academy. He directly quantum-teleported the people who had rushed in to the field outside. With a wave of his hand, he controlled the wind and shut the door. Then he said to Leina, "Emperor Leina, the conversation from here on is between gods. Please have the staff outside stay out."

Although Leina did not know Wang Lei, she recognized that quantum teleportation technique. Wang Lei was obviously the man in black armor who had appeared twice before. Back then, she had even remarked that Earth was full of hidden talents. Now, it seemed that one of those tigers had come straight to her.

Still, Leina stopped the other guards from rushing in. Through her internal communications, both Du Kao and Huang Lao instructed her to first hear what Wang Lei had to say.

While Leina was still wondering who Wang Lei really was, Yan was already smiling as she spoke.

"Oh, then we angels have been rude. To discuss Earth's affairs, we truly should not have bypassed you, Wang Lei. But did you just say that you had already become a god?"

Wang Lei was not actually a god yet; his physical strength had not reached that level. But his computational power had indeed reached the godly level now. Combined with Fleeting Blessing, pretending to be a god was more than easy enough.

So Wang Lei directly decoded a wing feather each from Angel Yan and Angel Chase, transported them before himself with Ether Teleportation, and said to Yan, "Of course. Yan, the situation has reversed now. I've become a god, while you're still a Third Generation Super Soldier. You need to work harder."

By now, Angel Yan and Angel Chase were fairly familiar with Wang Lei. It was only a feather from each of their wings. Even if Wang Lei had plucked them out, at most they would hit him with Flame Judgment to vent their anger.

But Wang Lei's action was actually a reminder to them: he could now decode their bodies. If they fought, Wang Lei, who could freely alter reality, could genuinely hang them up and beat them at will.

But who was Angel Yan? Knowing that Wang Lei was not an enemy and that they were already familiar with one another, she naturally went for the most mischievous response possible. So she promptly fired back, "Oh? Looks like you've really improved, Wang Lei. You even dared to pluck Chase's and my wing feathers. But if you really like angel wings that much, I could ask Queen Keisha to let you grow a pair of little wings yourself."

Wang Lei rolled his eyes at Angel Yan and said, "No need. Later, I'll frame Chase's feather and put it in my shop, showing it to every guest who comes by and telling them that a beautiful angel once visited. As for yours, Yan, I'll turn it into a quill pen. It will be a good chance to see what writing with angel feathers feels like."

Upon hearing that, Angel Yan wore an expression that said, Just as expected of you. Angel Chase, meanwhile, happily gave Wang Lei a thumbs-up, indicating that she approved.

At that point, Leina could not listen any longer. She interrupted them in irritation and turned to Wang Lei.

"All right, I heard them say your name is Wang Lei. What exactly are you here for? Don't tell me you came just to flirt with that old hag across from me."

Wang Lei put away all his playful smiles and said with exceptional seriousness, "It's very simple. The angels want to interfere in Earth's affairs, but they asked the people of Blazing Sun instead. As someone born and raised on Earth, I'm very unhappy about that. So I came."
