"First, let's discuss the issue of the level restraint. I don't know much about it because when Marquez and I came here, we were only at level five. Our strength limits have always been like those of normal practitioners, dependent on the upper limit of the level restraint."
"Next is the issue of items."
"All items can be used by me once I become human—this is just like any other practitioner."
Wen Yu nodded and then entered this point into the computer.
"Then there's the issue of treasure land access. Marquez and I can enter the treasure land; although we don't go often, we indeed can."
When Lei said this, Wen Yu paused for a moment, then noted it down again.
"Lastly, there's the issue of using the Exchange Stone Pillar..."
As he said this, a contemplative look appeared in Lei's eyes.
"We can't use the Exchange Stone Pillar, and our method of advancement is the same as before, not through the advancement trial—this is the only difference between us and normal practitioners."
Upon hearing this, Wen Yu nodded in understanding—needing to advance without going through the advancement trial was not a major oversight. As long as Lei and Marquez weren't foolish, they certainly wouldn't reveal any flaws in this matter.
Aside from that, the two were exactly like regular practitioners.
"By the way, where did you get this method of identity transformation?"
"It was personally granted by his excellency the demon lord. It's a type of pill; after Marquez and I took it, we became human, and there were no signs of changing back..."
"Then, apart from you, has anyone else taken this pill?"
Lei shook his head, indicating that he didn’t know.
After recording all of this, Wen Yu finally set down his notebook and picked up a test tube from the experimental table.
"Draw blood."
Wen Yu said.
…
Beside him, the indicator light on the mass spectrometer was emitting a faint glow. Lei inhaled the bloody scent in the air and watched Wen Yu rapidly typing away at the computer, unsure of what he was doing, feeling a bit uncomfortable all over.
After a moment, with a 'thud' sound from the mass spectrometer, the blood sample analysis was complete.
Wen Yu immediately stood up and walked towards the instrument, standing next to it and watching the data displayed on the screen, his hand slowly tapping his chin.
"What's wrong, my lord?"
Lei asked hesitantly, while Wen Yu shook his head.
"If I hadn't seen your memories, I really wouldn't have believed you used to be an ancient demon... Tsk tsk, this little guy is the highest-end testing instrument in Beijing. It can check all your genetic sequences in a short time..."
"The results are quite interesting; you are now just a human."
From the genetic aspect, the conclusion was drawn—Lei was a pure human, and he belonged to the East Asian Huaxia ethnicity, purely so.
However, there were no other individuals in the genetic database with a similar genome to Lei—in other words, Lei had no relatives in this world with even a slight blood relationship.
This was very rare.
Because this mass spectrometer could trace back to eighteen generations of ancestors—eighteen generations of direct descent, what are the odds of that…
But one had to consider the issue of the incompleteness of the genetic big data in the Beijing genetic database—many things had been lost before the apocalypse and could no longer be recovered. Thus, if Lei didn’t indicate his identity himself, no one could discover any apparent abnormalities in him.
This method of transforming from demon to human was extremely thorough!
But just because scientific methods couldn't detect it didn't mean other methods couldn't.
In fact, after observing everything about Lei, Wen Yu had another hypothesis…
A possibility even more terrifying than breaking away from the sovereign's control!
"Come with me!"
After saying this, Wen Yu grabbed Lei and immediately activated the Netherworld.
…
The space was torn apart, and Wen Yu and Lei quickly moved through the alternate space at a speed that left Lei unable to react. He only felt the fluctuations of spatial energy flash by, and in the blink of an eye, the two appeared in another bright and clean laboratory.
