On how PhDs become human evil

"Clang—!"

A deafening crash, like steel colliding, echoed across the sky. Then, a massive section of ice wing fell from the air, its broken end appearing as if shattered by something. The broken piece of ice wing, which had extended from Gabriel's back, stopped right in front of Bai Jie in mid-air.

Reaching out to push aside the ice wings in front of him, Bai Jie looked at his chest and said, "Why did you act on your own again? You knew perfectly well that kind of attack couldn't possibly hurt me."

“Yu—!”

With a hiss, a two-horned beast with a scarlet mane appeared beside Bai Jie and nuzzled his cheek affectionately.

Bai Jie smiled helplessly at the actions of the Twin-Horned Crimson. For some reason, this familiar beast always protected Bai Jie. Basically, whenever Bai Jie couldn't block an attack with his own body, it would take the initiative to block it for him.

“Yu Yu”.

"Huh? You mean you want me to ride on you?"

"Yu!"

The two-horned beast nodded vigorously.

Since his familiar had said so, Bai Jie didn't refuse. He flipped over and sat on its back, using magic to materialize reins and a saddle. The holy spear in his hand was also very intelligent and changed its shape, transforming into a giant lance!

"Yu————————!!!"

The sight of its master sitting on its back seemed like a great encouragement to the Deep Crimson Horned Beast, and its neighing instantly rose up!

Stroking the unicorn's mane, Bai Jie looked at Gabriel: "Then I'll go. Don't let this pre-sleep exercise end too quickly, Gabriel!"

"Laaaaaaaaaaaaaa!"

boom--!

With a roar, Gabriel's ice wings flapped in unison, and Gabriel instantly charged out!

Even when facing the Holy Lance, which in its own mythology had killed even the Son of God, Gabriel showed no fear whatsoever. After all, its true form was merely a massive aggregate of angelic power, devoid of human emotions. Therefore, its actions were quite simple—it charged directly into the enemy!

He used his maximum speed to crash into Bai Jie.

But this simple action caused a commotion like an asteroid falling, not only making the entire atmosphere howl, but also causing sparks to fly around its body, bringing an overwhelming force.

There is no doubt that if Gabriel were to hit it, even an iceberg thousands of meters high would shatter instantly.

In response to Gabriel's attack, Bai Jie's response was equally simple, even somewhat foolish.

He didn't dodge; he merely turned his body so that he was facing Gabriel sideways, as if to say, "I'll let you bump into me."

No, the word "as if" should be removed here. Bai Jie really intended to let Gabriel run into him without making any defense!

Seeing this, Gabriel's charging speed increased slightly, and a large amount of angelic power erupted from its body, as if wrapping it in a protective shell that enhanced its power. At this moment, what was crashing into Bai Jie was undoubtedly a meteorite completely formed from angelic power!

The distance between Bai Jie and Gabriel was less than a few thousand meters, and at Gabriel's speed, he could cross that distance in an instant.

A split second later, Gabriel and Bai Jie collided—

"laugh...."

The expected earth-shattering explosion did not occur; instead, a very faint sound was heard, so faint that it was impossible to hear it without careful listening.

It was a sound similar to the sound of air leaking out after a small hole is punched in a basketball.

Is that all?

Bai Jie said this in a completely emotionless voice.

Beside him, his right hand, like an iron claw, gripped Gabriel's face tightly, its five fingers sinking into his brain.

With one hand, he blocked the attack of that meteorite! And Bai Jie himself was completely unharmed! The angelic power that enveloped Gabriel was rapidly dissipating at a speed visible to the naked eye. Strands of light flowed out in all directions from Gabriel as the center. The sound of the basketball deflating was the sound of the angelic power flowing out from Gabriel, the container!

How can it be!

This was Kanzaki Kaori's first thought.

Gabriel's charge was so powerful that even the combined might of all the Anglican magicians might not have been able to stop it, yet Bai Jie managed to block it with just one hand without getting hurt? Even if that guy wasn't human, that's just too incredible!

Kanzaki Kaori was unaware that in the past, Hakuge had his arms shattered and his body completely destroyed by a three-headed dragon that had devoured the magic and life of the entire world. Because of the power of [Anti-Order], Hakuge's body was subsequently strengthened, becoming incredibly tough and possessing unparalleled resistance to lightning and fire. Now, Hakuge could bathe in the sun or face a nuclear explosion without any harm.

Gabriel's impact? This attack couldn't even break through Bai Jie's defense!

"Laaaaaaaaaa!"

Even with its face completely embedded in Bai Jie's right hand, Gabriel showed no intention of leaving. Pain probably didn't exist for it, since it was just an aggregate of angelic power, essentially an energy mass. And after Bai Jie blocked the initial impact with one hand, this energy mass immediately launched a second wave of attacks.

A full moon suddenly rose from below the sea and quickly appeared behind Gabriel.

A dazzling moon was surrounded by a halo of light, which expanded outward from the full moon's center, covering the entire sky in the blink of an eye.

At that moment, the entire sky above the Earth was covered by this halo.

Various patterns appeared on the inside of the halo, like complex geometric patterns, intertwined and overlapping.

This is a global magic circle! A planetary spell that encompasses the entire planet!

In the Old Testament, Gabriel destroyed a corrupt civilization by raining fire from the sky, bringing human history to an end. Now, Gabriel wants to recreate the scene of destruction from the myth.

"Command Name (MAND) [Scan] ———— Drop".

With his face almost crushed by Bai Jie, Gabriel uttered these words in a mechanical voice.

— A quick scan.

As its name suggests, a force poised to sweep across the entire planet appeared in this sky.

however--

"Snap!"

Without any warning, the magic circle shattered instantly! A two-headed dragon appeared at the center of the magic circle and began to frantically devour it—no, it wasn't devouring the magic circle, but rather consuming the space containing it.

The Dragon Serpent Mercury is a familiar that can swallow even dimensions. In terms of the brutality of its abilities, this familiar is undoubtedly the strongest.

Although it is said to be a magic circle that destroys the surface, as long as the core is broken, the magic circle will naturally collapse and disintegrate. The core of this [Sweep] spell on the planet is naturally the full moon just now. Therefore, in just two seconds, the full moon was swallowed by the Dragon Serpent Mercury.

"That's it?"

Bai Jie said expressionlessly.

"I thought you could let me do some pre-sleep exercises, but even if I go all out and don't use any magic, you still can't hurt me in the slightest... What a disappointment."

"It's definitely better to do pre-sleep exercises with your wife; it's also good for your physical and mental health."

As Bai Jie said this, he patted the deep crimson horns beneath him. Upon receiving the command, the two-horned beast suddenly raised its head, and crimson vibration waves burst forth between its two horns. The ultra-high frequency vibration directly shattered Gabriel's body into pieces!

Go back to your heaven.

Bai Jie thrust the Holy Lance into Gabriel's body. The instant the God-Slaying Holy Lance entered Gabriel's body, the immense angelic power dissipated as rapidly as ice meeting sunlight. Within seconds, Gabriel's shattered body was completely obliterated from this world by the Holy Lance.

Driving the deep crimson horns to fall to the ground and recalling the mercury of the dragon and snake, Bai Jie sighed: "This is about the extent of the angel's fall. Now that the angel has returned to heaven, this spell will gradually become ineffective. However, this is a spell with a global reach, so it will take at least until dawn for it to completely become ineffective."

"...You actually defeated the archangel so easily, Lord Bai Jie, just who are you?"

"The King of Magic, the Evil of Humanity, and the Doctor of Mordred's Name—you wouldn't understand even if I said that, would you? Just think of me as a slightly stronger magician." After saying that, he stretched vigorously and then teleported back to Rhodes Island.

“A slightly stronger mage… this isn’t just slightly stronger.” Kanzaki Kaori smiled wryly.

------------------

Incidentally, Bai Jie and Skadi spent the entire night together until dawn, though it's unclear whether they'll be able to have another child for the Bai family.

Furthermore, Bai Jie seemed unaware that even within Rhodes Island, the effects of Angel's Fall remained effective. Therefore, in his eyes, the person he was having sex with was Skadi, but in reality...

.......

London, England.

Looking at his reflection in the mirror—white hair and red eyes—he screamed in his dorm room in a frenzy, "Who is this?! Whoaaaaaah!"

Section 534, Chapter 33: My wife is not my wife.

Bai Jie didn't wake up until noon.

"Ugh... my back hurts so much!"

Last night, after dealing with Gabriel, Bai Jie went back to his room and spent the whole night in bed with Skadi until dawn. Although Bai Jie was the one making demands of Skadi most of the time, there were also times when Skadi was on top of Bai Jie. By the way, Miss Orca weighs a full 3.8 tons, nearly 4 tons.

Hmm... Now you all understand why Bai Jie's back hurts, right? Anyone else in that situation would have broken their back on the spot.

Bai Jie quickly used his magic to soothe his aching back, then lifted the covers, ready to give his wife a good morning kiss.

"Hiss...."

Bai Jie gasped as he pulled back the covers.

The woman lying in the blanket wasn't Skadi, but a woman Bai Jie didn't recognize.

The woman had blonde hair reminiscent of a lion, and an incredibly hot figure. Even Bai Jie, who had multiple wives, had to admit that among his wives, only Skadi could surpass her in terms of figure. The woman was also quite beautiful; calling her a top-tier beauty would definitely not be an exaggeration.

If she were outside, a woman like her could be a princess without any problem, but at this moment, she was lying naked on Bai Jie's bed.

(Huh? I remember I slept with Skadi last night.)

This was Bai Jie's first thought.

(Who is this? Is there such a person on Rhodes Island?)

This was Bai Jie's second idea.

"Well....."

Just then, the woman lying on the bed stirred and opened her eyes under Bai Jie's gaze.

Their emerald-like eyes met Bai Jie's dark eyes.

Bai Jie forced a bitter smile, his lips twitching slightly: "Madam, I think I can explain..."

"..."

After a brief silence, the woman quickly grasped the situation, grabbed the blanket to cover herself, and raised her right hand, trembling: "How dare you... how dare you defile my body... die, you lecherous scoundrel!!!!"

*Smack!*

A slap landed on Bai Jie's face.

"Unbelievable! Doctor, you actually spent the night with a woman you didn't know? I remember you said you were a virtuous and clean-living man!"
