True Love Shall Endure Forever (Please Recommend, Please Vote Monthly, Please Follow)

Huang Lao stared at the USB drive Wang Lei handed over as if it were gold. He snatched it into his hand with lightning speed. Then his assistant brought over a briefcase, placed the USB drive inside, and handcuffed the case to his wrist.

Huang Lao solemnly instructed, "Get this to the National Academy of Sciences as fast as possible. Remember, as fast as possible."

Huang Lao's change in attitude was still apparent here. The Super God Academy had all the necessary equipment, and they could quickly verify whether the information Wang Lei had provided was accurate.

Yet Huang Lao still had his assistant send the materials directly to the National Academy of Sciences. Clearly, he no longer trusted the Super God Academy's test results.

Du Kao and Lianfeng exchanged a glance, their faces full of helplessness. Having lived for so many years, they had long understood that trust built over centuries often needed only a single doubt to collapse.

What was more, Wang Lei's arguments were reasonable and well-founded. They themselves had grown accustomed to viewing war through the perspective of a god-making civilization, completely forgetting that for civilizations below the spacefaring level, the foundation of civilization was its people, not individual Super Soldiers. Clearly, neither Wang Lei, who had received a fortuitous encounter, nor Huang Lao could accept the Super God Academy's way of thinking.

However, for some reason—perhaps he had truly been assimilated by Hua Xia, perhaps he had deeper considerations, or perhaps the Super God Academy and Hua Xia were now grasshoppers tied to the same rope—Du Kao did not waver.

So even though he foresaw adjustments to Hua Xia's future research policies, judging by his expression, he still seemed determined to help Earth survive this crisis.

Wang Lei also knew that he alone could not yet keep the Taotie outside Earth. The Super Soldier Company was necessary, because even if he could create clones, he could not look after the entire country by himself. Thus, he did not make any further remarks directed at Du Kao.

However, Du Kao still did not give up on having Wang Lei teach the Super Soldier Company. It seemed that the Super Soldier Company held some important meaning for him. Even though Wang Lei's disgust toward him was so obvious, he still humbled himself and made the request.

But Wang Lei said he had no time to play house with a bunch of children. The Super Soldier Company could train on its own for now. Qi Lin and Mengmeng, however, could be allowed to return once. That was, in a sense, a concession toward strengthening the Super Soldier Company.

What followed was a round of pleasantries. Huang Lao intended to give Wang Lei a military post, but Wang Lei refused, saying that he did not want to get involved in officialdom. If there were any issues later, they could simply send someone to ask at his shop. He was there most of the time anyway.

The meeting at the Super God Academy came to a satisfactory conclusion. At the same time as Wang Lei and Du Kao's first clash, in the space beyond Earth's atmosphere—

Angel Yan had brought Angel Chase and Angel Moyi there, connecting to Divine Keisha through Dark Plane communications.

"Queen Keisha, the Taotie of the Styx galaxy are about to launch a large-scale advance on Earth. The Super God Academy on Earth has refused our assistance."

Upon hearing this, Queen Keisha seemed to have anticipated the outcome. She calmly replied, "Respect the Super God Academy's wishes for now."

"However, Wang Lei appeared midway through the meeting and claimed that he has already advanced to godhood. Since we still cannot observe his Dark Plane Information, we cannot determine whether that is true. But he can already easily analyze Chase's and my bodies. In terms of computational power, he has indeed surpassed a Third Generation Super Soldier. Also, he gave me an accessory that can bypass Super Genes and wield elemental power. He calls it a God's Eye, and wants to use it to trade with the angels for warships capable of fighting the Taotie."

Queen Keisha was clearly a little surprised, and somewhat delighted as well. Her tone was no longer quite so calm.

"That man truly is surprising. Yan, every time you come into contact with him, there seems to be a new surprise. He has advanced to a divine body? Then has this Wang Lei already approached the angels for help on Earth's behalf?"

"Not exactly. Wang Lei shares the Super God Academy's view. He believes the angels will not help Earth for free. He even explicitly pointed out that the Justice Order has room for improvement when it comes to the development of advanced civilizations, which is why he proposed a trade. Of course, he did not deny the Justice Order. He merely offered an opinion."

"Interesting. Even now, there are still people offering suggestions regarding the Justice Order. But if this Wang Lei has already become a god, then he does have the qualifications. When there is an opportunity, I would like to speak with him personally. However, Yan, why does it feel like you are worried about him? Could it be that our Thunder War God's heart has begun to stir?"

Queen Keisha was clearly teasing her. Chase and Moyi behind Yan began to snicker as well. Angel Yan did not know how to respond, so she could only change the subject.

"Queen Keisha, please stop using the title Thunder War God. After meeting Raiden Ei, that title has become downright embarrassing."

"Oh, I had forgotten. There also seems to be an unknown Fourth Generation God backing Wang Lei. In that case, he truly need not fear the Taotie, nor does he need us to intervene. But Yan, did you only observe Wang Lei during this trip?"

"Of course not. I saw the Light of the Sun, and I also saw... the Galaxy Power and the Nuoxing War God."

"The Galaxy Power... see whether he is worthy of you. How does he compare with Wang Lei?"

If this had been the Angel Yan from the original story, she would not have had feelings for anyone else, nor would she have questioned Queen Keisha's arrangement. So she would have answered hesitantly. But now, without comparison, there was no harm. Yan answered with complete certainty, "The gap between them is far too great. Though both are only in their twenties, Wang Lei already behaves like a god and has begun fulfilling his responsibilities. Yet he does not seem to have entirely cast off mortal ways of thinking and cannot view problems from a god's perspective. After all, he is still too young. As for the Galaxy Power, he does not seem to have realized the responsibility that comes with his strength. Even now, he spends every day staring at other girls' asses."

At that moment, Angel Chase could not help but interject. Ge Xiaolun's current performance was simply too pathetic. Chase did not want her good sister Yan to throw away her whole life on someone like that.

"That's right, Queen Keisha. That Galaxy Power is truly terrible. He cannot compare to Wang Lei at all."

"I understand. It seems, Yan, that you prefer Wang Lei. You are over seven thousand years old now; be more mature and find yourself a male god who will not rot in the soil. If you truly like him, you can be more proactive. But I really must meet Wang Lei personally. Without making a sound, he has lured away my Left Wing Guardian. He has even made Chase speak up to defend him directly. That is no small matter. Do not let me send you to Earth only for two of you to be whisked away at once."

Angel Yan once again found herself at a loss for words, reverting to her stammering state. As for Angel Chase, she decisively shut her mouth.

"Um... I have not been whisked away. And he is too young."

"In a million years, he will only be a tiny bit younger than you, won't he?"

"How can a warrior cling to the hope of living for a million years?"

"Hehe, but true love shall endure forever. Still, come back for now. I am very interested in the God's Eye. Return and show me how it works."
