Ye Hai held a teacup and asked, "Xuan Nu, have you found any trace of that Blood God?"

"Yes, master," she replied. "However, after he left from that female hacker's computer, he immediately fled the United States. It seems he realized that we have the advantage here; he can't hide…"

"Oh? Where did he run off to?" Ye Hai asked curiously.

"He first made a round in China but found the internet management there very strict, so he moved on to India, then into the Middle East, and finally to Afghanistan. I lost track of him there and couldn't follow him anymore," Xuan Nu said regretfully.

Ye Hai chuckled, "Looks like he hid in Afghanistan, where there are many dark web connections. It's normal that you lost track of him. Xuan Nu, keep an eye on his whereabouts and let me know as soon as you have any news!"

"Understood, master!"

"I need to restore the appearance of Electro. It's been delayed long enough; I can't put it off any longer."

As Ye Hai spoke, frost formed on the teacup in his hand. He drank all the ice water inside, feeling instantly refreshed as it coursed down his throat.

Ye Hai processed the genetic data for Electro, separating and reorganizing strings of data in his mind. He deduced complex formulas with ease. With the foundational research done previously, he was now very quick and adept at modifying genes.

A few hours later, a formula for altering Electro's genes appeared on his computer.

"It should be fine now," Ye Hai stretched and said.

"Xuan Nu, initiate the simulation experiment!"

"Alright."

On the holographic platform, a three-dimensional image of Electro appeared, fully naked with dense, webs of blood vessels. A beam of light shot in from the side, penetrating Electro's body.

"Gene simulation experiment initiated…"

"Subject has successfully undergone skin transformation. External attributes meet human aesthetic standards. Body function checks: blood pressure normal, body temperature normal, brain waves normal…"

As Xuan Nu's voice slowly recounted the data, the appearance of Electro changed drastically, revealing a tall, handsome young black man. This figure had a star-like face, exuding charm and sunshine. Even Ye Hai, an Eastern man, found him exceptionally handsome and very masculine.

"Michael Jackson. A star-like face for Electro; you should be satisfied, right?" Ye Hai murmured to himself, amused by his own mischievousness.

"Zila!"

The lab door swung open, and Phoenix Woman and Electro walked in. As she walked, Phoenix Woman eagerly asked, "Ye Hai, I heard you've developed the gene serum to change Electro's appearance?"

"Yes! What do you think of this black image?" Ye Hai gestured to the holographic representation.

"Hmm?" Phoenix Woman's eyes lit up as she scrutinized the black figure for a while before nodding, "Not bad! But it seems like a lot has changed. Can it really be done?"

"Of course! It's quite easy for me. Phoenix Woman, if you also want to change your appearance, I can create a stunning beauty image for you, haha!" Ye Hai smiled at her.

Phoenix Woman smiled slightly and shook her head, "Thank you for the offer, but I'm quite satisfied with how I look now. Hmm… Max, what do you think? Are you satisfied with this new look?"

Electro was mesmerized by this black appearance and chuckled awkwardly, "Yes, it's really handsome, but… it feels strange. He's too attractive. Is that really okay? I wasn't that good-looking before, and… I'm just not used to it!"

Ye Hai patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Max, you need to have more confidence in yourself. You're amazing, you know? You totally deserve this handsome appearance. Your previous look was too old-fashioned and not appealing to girls. Trust me, Max, this Michael Jackson appearance will definitely attract a legion of female fans!"

"Michael Jackson?" Electro said, dumbfounded. "Is that his name? What if I run into someone who looks like him?"

"Not a chance. This is a virtual character designed by my computer. In fact, that person doesn't exist in this world. You can use it without worry; no one will complain that you're stealing someone else's face," Ye Hai chuckled.

Electro finally relaxed and nodded, "Alright, let's go with it, Dr. Ye!"

"OK!" Ye Hai snapped his fingers, saying, "Xuan Nu, start preparing the physical serum!"

"Understood, master!"

As Xuan Nu's voice faded, the experimental factory immediately sprang into action, sending batches of prepared materials into various machines. Continuous chemical reactions occurred, and after about ten minutes, a bottle of green serum appeared on the platform.

Ye Hai picked up the serum and thought to himself, "System, activate quality control!"

"Yes! Ding! Quality control system starting…"

"Ding! The system detected that this serum achieves a 94.9% fusion rate with Electro's cells. It can be used safely!"

A 94.9% fusion rate is quite high, ensuring that there would be no side effects or other issues.

"It's ready! Take it!" Ye Hai handed the serum to Phoenix Woman, who sighed, feeling envious of his creativity.

With previous experience, Electro had complete faith that the serum provided by Ye Hai would be flawless, so he immediately took it.

Once the green serum entered his body, it reacted quickly, causing intense pain. His body flickered with dazzling electric sparks amid crackling sounds. Electro's skin transformed, and his blue, translucent body was enveloped in a layer of black skin. In the end, his skin glowed and felt tender, creating a handsome young black man right before their eyes.

Ye Hai looked at the international superstar Michael Jackson from his past and grinned at Phoenix Woman, "Isn't this a perfect masterpiece?"

"Yes, Dr. Ye," she replied, unable to hide her admiration, perhaps even deeply impressed.
