Chapter 641

After chatting with Ye Li for a while longer, Sif left in a good mood.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Alita, having failed to lift the hammer, was casually mocked by the blunt Lei Shen.

Consequently.

She insisted on sparring with the God of Thunder...

The result.

Was naturally a loss.

However.

Wielding a vibranium blade coated in ion flames, Alita sparred with Lei Shen with great vigor, fighting for quite some time and occasionally even gaining the upper hand.

This drew genuine cheers from the surrounding crowd, making her feel much better.

Alita walked over to Ye Li, sat down, and said, "Dad, I almost won; it's such a pity."

"I saw that."

Ye Li held up a cluster of flames in his palm, "I'll enhance you, and you can go try again; you should be able to fight him to a draw."

"What is this?" Alita asked, looking curiously at his palm.

"A part of the Eternal Flame."

As Ye Li spoke, he tossed the small cluster of flames, injecting it into Alita's body—

Whoosh!

The flames instantly burrowed inside.

Strangely.

The Eternal Flame, containing immense power, did not cause the slightest damage to her body.

An Asgardian janitor could enchant two Earth firearms into 【Heaven-Destroying】 and 【Earth-Extinguishing】 weapons.

With Ye Li's current level, using a portion of the Eternal Flame to enchant Alita's mechanical body was naturally no problem at all.

After finishing the enchantment, Ye Li asked Alita, "How does it feel? Try to see if you can control it."

"Let me try..."

Alita attempted to clench her hand—

A plasma flame fused with the Eternal Flame immediately enveloped her small fist, appearing green.

"It's here! It's just that this color is a bit ugly..."

"..."

Ye Li scratched his face; why did it have to turn green...

Dual cultivation of technology and magic, and it's green... He couldn't help but think of a certain 【Doctor Doom】, who was quite the achiever among Earth's villains...

"Well... looks aren't important; strength is the foundation."

Feeling Matilda's small, tightly clamped feet, her secret movements becoming faster and faster...

Ye Li was also nearing his limit, so he sent Alita away, "Hurry up and go test your new ability."

"Li~ sorry, I was so engrossed in chatting with Jane that I neglected you."

Susan, having finished discussing academics with Jane, came over tipsy and toasted Ye Li, "I'll punish myself with a drink first~!"

【Your academic discussions can get you this drunk...】

Ye Li muttered to himself, but he still wore a smile on his face, "It's a good thing you two hit it off so well."

"I'm glad you don't mind~"

Susan gave a charming smile, and after finishing her drink, she looped her arm through Ye Li's and shared a toast with him.

A drop of pale red wine intentionally or unintentionally spilled from the cup at her pink lips, sliding down her swan-like neck into the hollow of her collarbone, before slipping into her collar and falling into the deep cleavage~

Ye Li stared, his eyes glazing over...

Seeing him like this, Matilda unhappily moved her sticky little feet, very displeased with his "fickleness"...

The banquet was gradually drawing to a close.

Alita returned happily, clearly having regained her pride.

According to her account, she had fought Lei Shen to a draw, though it was unclear if Lei Shen had been serious.

As for Susan.

Although Ye Li was very tempted by her,

The Asgardian wine was too potent, and she had insisted on drinking despite her low tolerance, becoming so drunk she was nearly collapsing.

There was no help for it; sitting still was boring, so Ye Li could only have Alita take her back to the Ghost Spider first.

Meanwhile, he carried Matilda on his back and invited Jane to go for a boat ride on the lake.

·· ·Seeking flowers·· ······

By a secluded lakeside.

Splash~

Matilda sat on a large rock by the shore, her pair of delicate, beautiful feet splashing happily in the clear lake water,

creating water sprays and ripples of white~

"Huh?"

Jane was busy filming with her camera and, seeing the pure white coating on her cousin's jade-like feet, couldn't help but ask.

"Matilda, did you spill yogurt on your feet? It seems Asgardian yogurt is a bit different..."

Matilda lifted her small feet, which she couldn't quite clean off, rubbed them with her hand, glanced innocently at Ye Li, and replied to her cousin.

"Yeah, it is a bit different... a bit too sticky... I won't eat it next time..."

Ye Li didn't react to his second sister's gaze, but instead adjusted his fishing rod and lectured, "Matilda, your feet are splashing around in the water and scaring away my fish. I wanted to see what I could catch in an Asgardian lake."

"Pfft~"

Matilda stuck out her tongue and made a playful face at her brother, "I'm adding bait to the water for you, attracting all the fish over~!"

Ye Li's face darkened...

It would have been better if this little girl hadn't said anything...

Now that she had, if he actually caught a fish, he figured he wouldn't be able to look at it straight...

A fish attracted by yogurt... could it still be considered a proper fish...

【I wonder if there are mermaids in the Asgardian lake... *cough*... better not let my thoughts run wild...】

The more Ye Li thought, the more outrageous it became, and he quickly stopped his wandering mind.

Sure enough, the greater the ability, the freer the thoughts.

He began to understand why the superhumans in "The Boys," which he had watched in his past life, were so indulgent...

【Speaking of which, Vought's Compound V seems to have been perfected... I can go take a look when I return to Earth...】
