Keisha's Assessment of Wang Lei (Please Recommend, Please Keep Reading)

The host and guest both enjoyed lunch. Wang Lei's cooking skills were reliable, and with the novel recipes from Genshin World, the Golden Crab left Angel Yan's mouth gleaming with oil as she exclaimed in satisfaction.

Before she left, Wang Lei also redeemed a delicious Emerald Assorted Bag from the system and packed it up for Angel Yan.

The dishes exchanged directly through the system were different from those Wang Lei made himself using Earth ingredients. The buff effects from the game were retained.

So Wang Lei deliberately acted mysterious, telling Angel Yan to remember to share some with her colleagues and saying there was a surprise inside.

Although Angel Yan found it rather puzzling, the meat-and-vegetable shumai did look quite appetizing. But for it to surprise an angel—wasn't that a bit exaggerated?

Still, considering Wang Lei had already given her plenty of "surprises" today, Angel Yan obediently packed up the food. After all, if she had eaten and drunk well herself, she ought to bring something back for her good sisters. Otherwise, people would say she was keeping all the good food to herself.

Thus, Angel Yan brought the Emerald Assorted Bag to her good sister Angel Chase, who was permanently stationed on Earth. During the two women's playful scuffle, Angel Chase sent her flying with a light punch.

Only then did Angel Yan realize what Wang Lei had meant by a surprise. This food could temporarily boost attack power. Both she and Angel Chase had been strengthened, so the force of their usual roughhousing had sent her flying several meters.

After further testing, Angel Yan discovered that she, being stronger, seemed to receive a slightly greater boost than Angel Chase. The enhancement faded after two hours, but even so, it was outrageous.

Angel Yan had originally planned to report Wang Lei's situation to Queen Keisha during their scheduled contact. Judging from Wang Lei's current performance, although he was extremely mysterious, his combat ability was only at the level of a First Generation Super Soldier. He could not even instantly kill a Taotie Scout. He was hardly a threat.

But things were different now. Angel Yan was a Third Generation Super Soldier, and even among angels, she served as Divine Keisha's Left Wing Guardian. It could be said that she was stronger than ninety-nine percent of angels.

If Wang Lei's food could provide a decent boost to her, then it could do the same for other angels. On top of that, Wang Lei's Dark Dimension Data could not be read at all. Angel Yan felt that she had to report this to Queen Keisha immediately. Though his combat ability was lacking, if Wang Lei could mass-produce food that directly improved combat power, then his supportive capabilities would be terrifying.

So Angel Yan used her gene engine to connect to the angels' internal network and, with the authority of the Left Wing Guardian, directly contacted Queen Keisha.

Before long, Queen Keisha's relaxed voice came through the communication channel.

"Oh, Yan. What is it? You're contacting me before the scheduled time. Has something already happened on Earth that even my Left Wing Guardian finds troublesome?"

Angel Yan was quite used to Queen Keisha appearing less imposing before her close angel guards. Moreover, Keisha had always been both teacher and mother figure to Yan.

"No, Queen Keisha. I encountered a strange person on Earth. He seems to represent an unknown higher civilization..."

Angel Yan then described everything that had happened since she met Wang Lei.

After listening, Queen Keisha fell silent for a while before speaking faintly.

"It truly is a troubled time. On one tiny Earth, not only has Super God Academy stationed people there, but Styx and Blazing Sun are eyeing it covetously as well. Demon also seems to have its own plans. And now an unknown civilization has emerged. It can block our angels' Dark Dimension detection, and even its spatial methods leave no trace whatsoever... The civilization behind this person should not be low-level. And food that can directly increase combat power—interesting. Does it taste good?"

Hearing Queen Keisha take an interest in the food, Angel Yan immediately gave her honest assessment. "It is extremely delicious. Even the packed shumai barely lost any flavor. Queen Keisha, would you like me to pack some up and bring it back for you?"

Queen Keisha simply chuckled.

"No need. After all, this is food of unknown origin. And that Wang Lei immediately asked for an angel's Dark Dimension Basic Gene Engine. Most likely, he intends to provide it to the civilization behind him and judge the angels' technological level from a small sample. You, Chase, and the other sisters should rotate shifts and return to Angel Nebula for a full-body examination. Though this Wang Lei does not seem hostile toward angels, it is still best to get checked. Also, bring back two Energy Batteries and take two Dark Dimension Basic Gene Engines with you. We angels are not so easily judged from a small sample. There is no need to break our word over this. Oh, and inform the sisters taking over the shift that Wang Lei only needs to be observed from now on. There is no need for frequent contact for the time being."

Angel Yan nodded. Queen Keisha's judgment was never wrong. She had been careless as well. Though she had scanned the Emerald Assorted Bag and knew it was not poisonous or laced with anything strange, the fact that she had found nothing unusual only proved how unusual it was. After all, the boost to combat power was real, yet Angel Yan had no idea how it worked. She really had carelessly eaten something strange.

While Yan was contacting Keisha, on Wang Lei's side—

After seeing Angel Yan off, Wang Lei closed the shop, returned to his room, and took a shower in one smooth sequence. Although he had seemed relaxed while talking to Yan, his heart had been in his throat most of the time.

The gap between him and Angel Civilization was far too great. Though he remembered that, in the original story, Angel Civilization had decided to uphold the Justice Law, to the point of being somewhat rigid about it, Wang Lei could not guarantee what the angels might do if they truly became interested in him. Therefore, the best outcome was for the angels to believe that someone stood behind him. After all, he truly was weak.

If the secret of his ability to travel between worlds so easily were exposed, then the best treatment awaiting him would likely be house arrest. Carl of Styx might even spare no expense to bring him back.

It was not as though Carl would be incapable of sealing Wang Lei's soul into a cat and taking over his current body.

At that moment, Wang Lei truly lamented his lack of strength. He urgently needed a large amount of Energy Points to increase his power.

Besides, Wang Lei had originally planned to make his first journey tonight, and the timing was perfect.

After careful consideration, Wang Lei decisively chose not to travel first to Honkai Star Rail, whose upper limit was higher. Although he had a Stellaron within his body and possessed a God's Eye, his physical body was not much stronger than an ordinary person's. If he entered that world and the Stellaron still showed no reaction, then unless he returned immediately, he would be walking straight into certain death.

He was naturally unwilling to waste the Energy Points he had worked so hard to save up. Thus, for his first journey, Wang Lei decided to go to the relatively less dangerous Genshin World.

His main objective was still to collect energy that the system could use there, converting any excess into points. With enough energy, everything could be discussed; without energy, Wang Lei's future would be blocked at every turn.
