In the exhibition hall where Li Jie is located, there is no doubt that the gold headdress in front of him is the most precious in terms of actual value, not to mention the artistic level and archaeological value behind it, the brilliance of the expensive gold and precious stones alone shows that the value is invaluable.

Such a treasure, the security measures are strict and exquisite, you can imagine.

However, although Li Jie does not know the ingenious mechanism of this display case, he has a powerful and unimaginable ability, and can take the most direct and effective way to shroud the entire display case in electromagnetic waves, and quietly cut off all electronic signals in a radius of several meters in front of him.

Under the control of keen perception, the invisible electromagnetic wave was more flexible than a finger, easily unlocked the electronic lock that had entered a paralyzed state, opened the back cover of the cabinet, peeled the dark blue gem off the top of the gold headdress, and flew into Li Jie's arms with great agility, and then restored the display case to its original state, until he walked out of the exhibition hall, and then let go of the control of the area again.

Ordinary people don't know what's going on, nothing has changed, even in the surveillance camera, this display case has not appeared in any way, but the picture flashes slightly, and the top of the gold headdress originally inlaid with gems has been missing a small part.

Even though this small part may be very valuable, let's be honest, such a subtle change that occurs silently is almost impossible to spot immediately in the Metropolitan Museum, which has millions of objects. I'm afraid that you can only notice it if you are engrossed in staring at the cabinet, which is obviously not realistic.

So, that's all. When Lee Kit left the museum. There was already a gem in his hand that came from the top of Queen Puabi's golden tiara.

And the museum aspect. It is impossible to imagine that there could be such strange and magical things in the world. It may not be long before some attentive staff member discovers that part of the gold headdress is missing, and by that time, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, which had just reopened, had to be closed for the second time due to a mysterious theft.

Li Jie naturally doesn't care about all this, anyway, these seemingly prestigious and respected museums don't know how many shady things related to illegal excavation and resale of precious cultural relics in private. Taking out a small part for yourself and making the best use of the broken pieces of the soul is the real thing to get what you want.

After leaving the museum and going around in a circle, Li Jie, who had recovered his original appearance, quietly returned to the penthouse at 432 Park Avenue, alone in the bedroom, the dark blue gem was quietly suspended in front of him under the traction of electromagnetic force.

After a brief trial through perception, Li Jie had an approximate understanding of the composition of this deep blue gemstone, which is a piece of lapis lazuli. The English name is LapisLazuli. From the Latin word Lapissapphir, the former means precious stone. The latter refers to blue gemstones. In some oriental legends, there are also many other names, such as Xuanlin, Jin Jing, Jinyu, Qingdai and so on. Even in human Buddhist culture, there are different sayings for Vedali or Biliuli.

For Li Jie, no matter what this gem means in human society, the most important thing is that he found that it contained some strange substances, which could delay the collapse of soul fragments, so that the strange existence has been preserved to this day, knowing that it was accidentally discovered by himself.

Of course, it is only a delay, and perhaps without his discovery, after a few years, he will eventually disappear from the world.

After Li Jie broke through this lapis lazuli gemstone with a strong electromagnetic force, a blue light slowly rose from it, like clouds and mist, and like a streamer gathering and scattering, this halo that could not be seen by the naked eye was naturally invisible in his keen perception.

Between the countless glow surges, Li Jie's own soul origin has risen up, turning into a tall and gorgeous figure, and the instantaneous expansion incorporates this soul fragment, compared to before using "Helios" to temper it, this soul origin glow figure has obviously been much condensed, and the vague outline of the face can be vaguely seen, and even the faint facial features.

This soul fragment from a certain immortal master, after losing the constraints of the origin consciousness, really looked extremely clumsy and spiritual, like a strong man who had become an idiot, he didn't know how to control his own power at all, and was skillfully differentiated and absorbed by Li Jie's soul origin little by little, even so, the ensuing shaking was extremely strong, so that he had to concentrate on it in order to control it.

The origin of the soul is about the most mysterious thing in the world, and even Li Jie, who was once immortal, did not dare to assert that he thoroughly understood this mysterious source of life. The reason why he knew that there were no soul fragments bound by the Origin Consciousness could be absorbed was only because he had had a similar experience by chance in his memory.

When this unimaginable soul fragment was absorbed into his soul origin, a long-lost wonderful sense filled the depths of his consciousness, as if his own perception had surpassed the body, consciousness, and soul origin, and expanded infinitely, quickly accommodating the entire bedroom, the "top of the sun", and even higher into the sky, the entire parkway, Manhattan Island, skyscrapers, traffic, Brooklyn Bridge, and the East River......

Everything can't escape the control of consciousness, it's as intoxicating as omniscient and omnipotent, but in the blink of an eye, this mysterious feeling recedes like a tide, and Li Jie's consciousness turns back again, and is forcibly pulled back into his body.

He knew that this was just a short-term strange sensation generated by touching the barrier of the immortal rank when he absorbed the immortal rank soul fragments, and it was not his true ability, of course, in the process, he also further strengthened his soul origin.

About ten minutes later, Li Jie, who had regained his composure, was pleased to find that after successfully absorbing this soul fragment, his soul origin, which had been a little out of control due to the repeated use of "Helios" tempering, had indeed become a little stable, which was the strengthening of the true foundation, and there was no suffocation.

The origin of the soul is like the skeleton that builds the world, and the energy is to fill the flesh and blood of the world and give it fresh vitality, both of which are indispensable. The plasma inside "Helios" is capable of filling with energy. Soul shards, however, are more helpful in strengthening the Origin.

After savoring this rare experience. Li Jie is back to reality again. Consider the situation you are facing at the moment and what you need to do urgently.

After a moment of silence, he picked up the phone and directly informed Trist, asking the other party to collect detailed information about the two river valleys, especially the Sumerian civilization, as soon as possible, and sent a photo of the ancient Sumerian slate taken on the phone, signaling to look for similar patterns and text.

As for the lapis lazuli that contained soul fragments, Li Jie did not mention it. Being able to strengthen his own immortal rank soul fragments, of course he was interested. But I had to face the reality that it was probably just a coincidence. If any lapis lazuli on earth contained soul fragments, then the immortal existence would be too worthless.

Moreover, the gem on this gold headdress of Queen Puabi has not undergone much artificial carving because of the natural fit of the form, and if it is a gem of other human ornaments, even if it happens to contain soul fragments, most of them have destroyed the original form after the acquired processing, and cannot continue to accommodate and delay the existence of soul fragments.

Since there are no other clues in front of you, instead of looking for a needle in a haystack, search the world for gems. It is better to focus on the civilization of ancient Sumerians, Li Jie has a hunch. As long as you keep digging deeper, sooner or later you will get more relevant clues.

As for the beautiful female secretary Trist, although she didn't understand why her boss suddenly became interested in ancient civilizations again, her shrewd and capable ability to do things did not need to be doubted, and she had already taken action immediately.

Arlington County, Virginia, Defense Pre-Research Agency.

In the simple and bright living room, all the living facilities are complete, except for the blonde beauty sitting quietly on the bed, looking out of the high window, her slender figure looks a little lonely and cute.

The door of the living room was pushed open from the outside in, and Marlowe, with a resolute face? Chaplin walked in, his body was stronger than some time ago, his body was full of explosive power, and even his eyes were sharper and imposing, but when he looked at the woman sitting on the bed, his face slowed down, and he asked as if he was concerned:

"Are you resting well?"

Deborah? Clark slowly opened his eyes, because the appearance of this powerful military figure looked a little nervous, pursed his thin lips and said:

"Thank you for your concern, Mr. Chaplin, when can I leave?"

Marlowe's face twitched, trying to make his smile as kind as possible, and he walked up to Deborah, pulled out a chair and sat down:

"We are already dealing with the relevant procedures as soon as possible, after all, you caused a lot of damage in the subway that day, and also caused serious injuries to several people on the other side, although there is testimony that it is out of self-defense, but there are still a large number of files to deal with, please understand."

As for what and how many of these so-called cumbersome procedures and decrees, Deborah, as an ordinary person, of course, knows nothing, and can only be at the mercy of the special operations officer of the Ministry of Defense in front of her, so she has no way of knowing that according to the newly promulgated superpower management law, her self-defense behavior is not serious, at least not to be imprisoned here.

The reason why he was directly taken away by the military personnel who arrived after the subway sabotage incident and was immediately transferred to the Pre-Research Bureau was entirely because Marlowe took advantage of the little privilege he had at hand and quietly revised the file.

Poor and innocent Deborah, who still trusted the colonel with a kind attitude in front of her, was more easily deceived by the other party's smile, calmed down slightly, and asked hesitantly after calming down:

"Is it still the same as yesterday? Mr. Chaplin, the induction rituals you receive are too frequent for your body to bear. ”

A hint of eagerness that was well concealed flashed in Marlowe's eyes, and he smiled slightly: "Didn't you say it, you can call me by my name in private." It's okay, I'm in good health, go ahead. ”

The preparatory priest of the Enlightenment Sect had no choice but to cooperate with him again to start a separate initiation initiation ceremony.

Marlowe didn't lie to her in this regard, after receiving genetic modification, his body is beyond imagination, and he will not be injured by frequent soul guidance, but at the same time, he also breeds more desire for power, and this simple preparatory priest in front of him has become the best person to help him.

An hour later, Marlowe, who had completed another orientation ceremony, reassured herself and walked out of Deborah's room, quickly returning to her room. At the head of his bed, there are two photos, one of which is a beautiful subordinate of the fiery red hair, Sera? Blaize, while the other is painted with a cross...... Li Jie.

Marlowe stood quietly, looking at the tall and handsome young man, revealing an unforgettable hatred, and he did not change his posture for a long time.

He was a little disturbed in his heart, the investigation against Li Jie had made some progress, but it was suddenly stopped by Defense Minister Gates, which made him have some bad premonitions, I am afraid that the military who was originally standing behind him can no longer provide much help.

Although I don't understand the specifics, Marlowe is not stupid, there is always a difference between politicians and soldiers, soldiers are better at going straight and never compromising with the enemy, while politicians ...... They are accustomed to the exchange and compromise of interests.

With the help of his old friend Atley, he has completed genetic modification and gained great power, but at the same time, he is more afraid of Li Jie, whether it is the images left by the Wall Street incident or the details revealed by the destruction of Sunset Plaza in Los Angeles, which makes him more and more eager to become stronger.

Being in a special department, Marlowe is naturally far more informed than ordinary people, and he is convinced that the power that Li Jie has is far more terrifying than what he sees, and it is far from what he can compete with now, and if he wants to take revenge, he still needs to wait patiently.

"Wait...... Cera...... Don't worry, I'll make him pay......"

New York, Queens, JFK International Airport.

The sound of flights taking off and landing is constantly roaring, all kinds of noise and noise are so noisy that people are a little dizzy, and the airport radio constantly broadcasts the upcoming departure and arrival flights, reminding countless tourists and pick-up personnel to go to the designated entrances and exits.

Dressed in casual clothes, Li Jie walked up the escalator in the crowd and then walked towards the security checkpoint with other tourists who were about to travel.

This was the time when there were the most travelers, and there were already long queues at the various security checkpoints, but he did not appear to be impatient at all, and waited patiently like everyone else.

It took more than ten minutes before it was Li Jie's turn to advance to the security checkpoint.

The police officer sitting behind the counter carefully looked at Li Jie's appearance, but compared with the ID and passport in his hand, he didn't seem to see any suspicion, picked up the stamp and stamped it, and handed it back to him with a professional smile:

"Have a nice trip, Mr. Walker."

Li Jie took the documents handed back, waved his hand, smiled as well, and then walked to the security gate.

On the computer connected to the full-body security screening device, a perspective image that is exactly the same as that of an ordinary human is revealed, and the police officer in charge of the inspection can also find no problems, allowing him to pass without any problems.

These instruments aimed at ordinary people can only detect the state of human beings within the normal range, and Li Jie, who controls his own form freely, can easily simulate the physique, internal and even brain activity of any ordinary person, and naturally there will be no mistakes in this regard.

At this time, whether it is his appearance, figure, or even fingerprints, he is the same as that ordinary Chinese-American Timos? Walker is indistinguishable, and his identity has changed to that of an archaeologist at New York University who is about to travel to Tokyo. As for the real archaeologist, Mr. Walker, he is imprisoned somewhere where no one will be able to discover.

The professor's somewhat miserable situation will continue until Li Jie no longer needs to use this identity.

(What, ask for a count...... Don't forget to recommend commuter passes...... (To be continued......)
