I get stronger by sunbathing, just like Superman.

This explains why he was able to easily put Lei Ming into a deep sleep, and even 'test' him in his dreams.

Although he was relaxed at the time, his mental strength was extremely powerful, having long possessed telepathy. He wouldn't be so easily influenced to the point of being unable to distinguish between reality and dreams...

Lei Ming simply couldn't understand why such an ancient being would seek him out for this stunt and then suddenly disappear; it was utterly inexplicable.

He felt somewhat annoyed at that moment.

If it's a physical enemy, that's fine. Whether you can beat them or not, just throw a punch and see how it goes...

But how do you deal with this guy who hides in your dreams?

He clearly remembered his state in the dream just now. Almost all his abilities were affected by the dream, sometimes working and sometimes not. Who knows, the other party might be able to turn him into an ordinary person in the dream.

Fortunately, as long as he gets some sun, he never feels sleepy or wants to go to sleep.

As long as he doesn't sleep, there's nothing to be afraid of unless that guy can come back to the real world to find him. The only thing to worry about is Elena, who's right beside him...

She is just an ordinary person.

Morpheus's purpose is still unclear, but he has a feeling that the other party will definitely come looking for him again...

另外

Lei Ming was also thinking about how to give Elena some 'special' self-protection abilities, preferably without side effects and with the ability to significantly extend her lifespan.

After all, he couldn't stay by her side all the time. Even if he could, he didn't know how long he would live. A hundred years from now, he would still look the same, while Elena would turn into a pile of bones... He didn't want to see that.

But turning her into a vampire is impossible. Without breath or heartbeat, and having to feed on blood, not to mention whether he could accept her cold body, Elena herself probably wouldn't be willing.

After spending some time in the bathroom, Lei Ming returned to his room, put on his clothes, opened the bathroom window, and jumped out.

She found all the books Sophia had collected about black magic and summoning rituals in the study, then took them to the warehouse where he had been summoned, and began to look through them one by one…

Although he already had a lot of relevant information collected from the memories of scholars around the world, the human brain's memory is never as clear as that of books, so the information he obtained was mostly vague and disorganized.

He also learned from someone's memory that Morpheus had been summoned to the human world by a wizard who was obsessed with immortality due to his carelessness, and was imprisoned by him for hundreds of years before being released.

If he remembers correctly...

Among his brothers and sisters, one possessed the power to grant humanity immortality.

Although it's highly likely that Morpheus won't be as careless as before and may have taken some kind of precaution... there's no harm in giving it a try.

He didn't know how much time had passed, but suddenly a familiar voice echoed in his mind...

"Ray? Can you hear me? Have you really come back from heaven?"

"Elux?"

Lei Ming put down his book, feeling somewhat surprised. There shouldn't have been any word about his return to Earth.

Although he didn't plan to meet Max and the others, Electrolux was the first 'monster' friend he had met in this world, so after hesitating for a while, Lei Ming still responded to him.

Electrox was delighted to receive the response, and the two 'reunited' across an unknown distance. It was then that Electrox learned that he had been having his 'Purple-Eyed' priests, who possessed prophetic abilities, predict his condition.

Their conclusion was that Thunder was still alive and in England. Electrolux then tried calling out to him in his mind, and the message was transmitted to Thunder's mind.

After chatting for a while, Electrolux invited Rayming to visit his "new home" sometime, saying he wanted to thank him for everything he had done for him and had prepared a "thank you gift" for him.

Lei Ming, who did not want to be disturbed for the time being, refused. Electrolux did not make any further requests, but insisted that Lei Ming accept this 'gift of gratitude'.

The two eventually agreed to meet on a deserted island in the Atlantic Ocean.

Since it was still early, Lei Ming used his senses to check on Elena, who was breathing steadily in the manor, and then left the manor…

He jumped into the Thames.

Since flying is not an option for the time being, and to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, swimming from the riverbed to the Atlantic Ocean is a good choice. Besides, England is an archipelago in the Atlantic Ocean, and it is not too far from the place the two agreed to meet.

...

Late at night, on a small island near the English Channel, two figures are saying goodbye…

Electrolux is now king and can no longer roam freely as before. After a brief chat, he tossed a box to Thunder and then jumped back into the sea…

It was quite a coincidence that Electrolux first put a gem in his box, and then an accident happened that made him 'grow up' instantly...

Years later, the same scene unfolded again, only the time, place, and the identities of the two people were different.

After Electrolux left, Thunder opened the box.

Instantly, his entire body and the entire sky around him were enveloped in a dazzling red light!

At the same time, he felt a burning heat on his body, as comfortable as sunbathing at close range... The cells in his body were stirring.

Inside the box lay a round crystal, bright red all over, slightly larger than a quail egg.

It was an eye…

He had seen it in the underground world—the red eye that illuminated the entire underground space.

He was busy with important matters at the time and didn't examine it closely, only remembering that he seemed to be able to absorb the light energy released by the eye.

This was the thank-you gift Electrolux gave him.

He had heard Anke say that their power came from the sun, and that the eye's ability was precisely to simulate the sun, originating from a powerful ancestor of the Gendaya people hundreds of thousands of years ago.

While its light and heat cannot compare to the real sun, it has a similar effect. In fact, some underground vegetation has even undergone beneficial mutations after prolonged exposure to this red sunlight…

Now that they have moved to the ground and have a real sun, this 'red sun' is naturally no longer needed. However, it was still preserved by the elders of the Gendaya civilization as a precious historical artifact, only to be taken away by Electrolux...

One person said it was a gift for Superman... but no one dared to utter a sound.

Originally, if Lei Ming hadn't returned, he planned to give it to An Ke...

But now that he's back, of course I still have to deliver it to him personally.

He took out his glasses to examine them closely, and upon touching them, he felt an incredibly hot sensation. They were coated with a layer of translucent crystals, the material of which he did not know, but which was extremely hard.

Furthermore, the eyes can adjust the size and temperature of the light through his consciousness, which is extremely convenient.

At the same time, he also felt his body slowly absorbing the red light energy it released, seemingly merging it with the stellar energy within him…

Chapter Seventy-Five Special Fugitives

While Lei Ming was hiding in England, waiting for his strength to recover, in a luxurious apartment in the United States, Max was standing in front of a full-length mirror adjusting the battle suit he had just put on.

He is now twenty-one years old. His appearance has not changed much compared to before, except that the contours of his face are more defined and his body is more robust, making him look much more mature.

After getting dressed, he grinned at the mirror, flashing a bright white smile, then glanced at a popular female celebrity who was fast asleep in bed, before walking straight to the French windows and flying out…

The suit's built-in communication device beeped, and Max pressed the answer button. Dylan's anxious voice came through:

"Max! The meeting has been going on for ten minutes, and everyone is waiting for you! Where are you?"

"Sorry, I'll be there soon..."

Before Dylan could speak again, Max turned off the communicator and accelerated rapidly toward headquarters... his entire body becoming a blur as he swept across the city.

A burst of cheers and screams came from below, but he paid no attention.

More than ten minutes later, he flew to the window of the conference room on the top floor of the headquarters building. Inside, several members of the Blue Guard superheroes were sitting, including Connie Lyle and Anko.

Under the watchful eyes of numerous superheroes, Max shot directly through the window into the conference room floor, causing a huge commotion and cracking the floorboards beneath his feet, startling Amanda who was speaking and causing her to back away.

He acted as if he hadn't seen it, got up on his own... then walked over to an alliance member sitting in the front row and stopped, not saying a word, just staring at him expressionlessly...

Soon, the member coughed awkwardly, then quickly got up and found a seat in the back row.

Although he was also a superhuman with considerable abilities, he could only swallow his pride in front of Max.

In fact, everyone here... except for a few members of the first generation who are on the same level as Max, no one else dares to provoke him, not only because of his identity, but also because of his strength.

Aside from the twin Valkyrie Ankoana, the only one who can keep him in check is Princess Leona from Paradise Island.

Max had already taken the empty seat in front of him, crossed his legs, and nonchalantly spoke to Amanda on the stage in a flippant tone…

"Sorry, you can continue now."

The latter looked at Max, who seemed like a bad student in class, with a nonchalant attitude, gave him a meaningful look, and then continued with his own topic.

From her seat, Connie gave Max a warning look, but he ignored it and she could only helplessly continue listening to Amanda's meeting.

The purpose of this meeting was to capture a special group of 'fugitives'.

Seven years ago, on the day the angels descended, riots of varying degrees broke out all over the world. People were killing each other like madmen, or dying suddenly on the spot. In the end, many prisoners escaped from prisons in the chaos.

This includes a group of 'special prisoners' that the Supermarket Administration has been holding underground.

In total, more than fifty special criminals escaped alive. They were all "experts" in various criminal fields, and things like bombers and serial killers were child's play to them...

Among these people are a mad scientist who wants to destroy the world and actually has the ability to do so, and a genetically mutated humanoid water monster…

And there's an antisocial individual who likes to spread poison gas everywhere, a shapeshifter who can transform into anyone's appearance without any flaws, and a high-IQ psychopath who likes to play death games with people, etc...

After the angels descended, these special fugitives successfully escaped and fled to all parts of the world. In the end, a small number of them were captured by Betty the vampire's powerful psychic abilities. However, after Betty broke up with Max, she left the Superpower Bureau and her whereabouts are now unknown.

This greatly reduced their ability to apprehend criminals. None of the prisoners were easy to catch, and after seven years, they had only managed to capture a handful of small fry. The few who could truly cause great harm to society, the country, or even the world were still at large.

They even lost many members during the pursuit over the past few years.

Recently, they received information that the highly intelligent mentally ill man had appeared in England and had already carried out several bomb attacks, with the death toll so far exceeding three hundred.
