Wang Ye said helplessly, "Don’t make wild guesses... the truth isn’t what you think."

In fact, when Wang Ye traveled across the country, he had already explored various Taoist temples in China. Although there were quite a few cultivators with numerous units of Primordial Qi, ninety-nine percent of them were not enough to be significant. Even the best among them could only use several hundred units of Primordial Qi to perform extremely weak magic. For example, by setting up an altar to evoke heavenly power to summon lightning, or by using Qi Lifting and Light Body to drop from more than ten meters high without injury.

Almost no one could directly use Telekinesis like Wang Ye or even crush a heart. So the few people Wang Ye mentioned were just very weak Extraordinary Beings, almost no different from top athletes in terms of bodily functions. They weren’t all strong Extraordinary Beings like Carlos imagined.

Carlos naturally didn’t believe Wang Ye’s cover-up.

He continued asking, "With your current strength, could you possibly rival those modern large-scale combat weapons? Like fighter jets, tanks, and such."

Wang Ye shook his head and laughed, "You’re overthinking it, I’m not that strong yet."

His current strength might seem invincible to ordinary people, even comparable to superheroes like Hulk and Homelander in movies.

But in reality, Wang Ye knew his strength was still very weak in the face of current technology.

His maximum speed seemed invincible, but in actuality, it was only subsonic. And nowadays the fastest fighter jet in the world—the SR-71 Blackbird high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft—has already exceeded three Mach, or three times the speed of sound.

Wang Ye’s proud speed looked like a snail compared to it.

Even setting aside highly mobile, high-destructive, city-level modern weapons like fighter jets that can carry missile heads or even nuclear warheads, even the most ordinary reconnaissance light tank could directly blow Wang Ye to pieces. Even with his subsonic mobility, he couldn’t escape their precision guidance systems. If hit by a missile, with Wang Ye’s Defense Power, he would instantly turn into scorched smoke.

Because Wang Ye’s Defense Power could at most withstand large-caliber sniper rifles. If the suffix were changed from gun to cannon, or missile, his Defense Power would be as fragile as paper.

As for Attack Power and strength, even less need to be said. Wang Ye’s full strike now only has four to five thousand joules. This level of attack in front of a tank would be no different from throwing a stone, not even able to break through the outermost iron sheet.

Wang Ye’s brain has been systematically strengthened, he naturally has clear self-awareness. He knows very well that with his current strength he can only be arrogant for a while in the sporting realm. If the stage were changed to the battlefield, Wang Ye’s power is still very small.

So Wang Ye never thought about doing whatever he wants in human society. Even when leading a gang to swallow other gangs, he has to disguise an identity and do it seamlessly without a trace. If others obtained the same power and their confidence inflated, they might become like Homelander, not eating beef on the same day. The ultimate outcome, naturally, is being blown into pieces by a missile immediately.

If that day ever comes where Wang Ye needs to face these modern weapons, his only way out is to run directly to the nearest densely populated city. As long as the other side still harbors humanity, they would definitely not launch missiles at a high-density populated city.

But doing so still poses some risk because Wang Ye cannot predict whether the other side might go down with him. For example, America once dropped a nuclear bomb on Hiroshima, Japan. At that time, about 140,000 people died directly or indirectly under the nuclear bomb. If Wang Ye poses enough threat to society, then perhaps many forces or countries would be willing to destroy themselves to stop him. Wang Ye now must be very careful not to let society detect his hostility.

At this point, hearing Wang Ye’s words, Carlos’s eyes revealed a look of skepticism.

It was clear he also didn’t realize how terrifying human weapons are.

He just thought Wang Ye was being modest.

And according to his speculation, nowadays, there might be more than one person as strong as Wang Ye in China.

The combat power of just one person is so terrifying; if a few more came... destroying the world wouldn’t be difficult, right!

Carlos got goosebumps all over his body. As expected, the rumors online weren’t wrong. This mysterious country can defeat America anytime and dominate the Earth!

Wang Ye was too lazy to explain too much. After cleaning the remaining sulfuric acid on himself, he put on clothes and tidied up the mess on the scene.

Then led Carlos out of the building, locking the door behind them.

"You go back to the hotel first, I’m going to train outside for a while," said Wang Ye.

"Okay, goodbye."

Carlos waved goodbye and then rode his motorcycle back towards the hotel.

Once Wang Ye saw Carlos completely disappear at the end of the road,

he silently accelerated in another direction.

··························

About ten minutes later,

Wang Ye appeared at the gang’s headquarters dozens of kilometers away.

He quickly changed into black clothes, put on Rein’s mask, and summoned Terry and his clone.

At this moment, the clone’s physique and temperament had become ninety percent similar to Wang Ye’s.

Standing together, the two looked as if they were cut from the same mold. Even Terry, who was most familiar with Rein, might not be able to tell who the real Rein was.

The reason Wang Ye hurriedly rushed here and summoned Terry and the clone was because he needed to prepare quickly before Agent Daniel arrived.

This morning, he revealed some of Rein’s information to Agent Daniel. If nothing unexpected happened, today Daniel and his subordinates would seize this opportunity to search recent days’ surveillance tapes to locate the gang’s territory, possibly even commence a search today.

Furthermore, based on the typical nature of American police, there’s a high chance combat would directly unfold.

Wang Ye didn’t want the gang he painstakingly operated for more than a week to be swept away just like that. So Wang Ye needed to inform Terry and the clone about this information in advance. Let them focus on patrolling the vicinity today, and once an abnormal situation arises, combat will start immediately.

Upon hearing Wang Ye’s words, Terry and the clone quickly gave orders to their subordinates. The hundreds of members of the gang urgently began to prepare for defense.

Wang Ye, meanwhile, hid in the shadows,

making preparations alone.

Facing the police search, countless response plans had already surfaced in his mind.

He can both clear himself of suspicion and prevent the gang from getting captured.

But no matter what, he couldn’t avoid fighting today.

He needed to take this opportunity to fully showcase the deterrent power of his Rein identity in front of the public.

This is both a crisis and an opportunity.

After overcoming this crisis, not only would the Sloos Gang gain more expansion opportunities, but the identity of Rein would also enter Nirvana.

··························

Sure enough, 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

about half a day passed.

Terry sent over a message.

And quickly reported the situation to Wang Ye.

From Terry’s report, Wang Ye learned that about an hour ago,

four of their members who were out handling affairs

were suddenly taken away by the police from a patrol car when they were about to return to the territory.

And a gang member on patrol nearby saw this scene,

and immediately returned to the gang territory to inform Terry of the detailed situation.
