Chapter 145 Zodiac Signs More than an hour later, Justine's eyes were lifeless and she seemed to be staring at the ceiling, but in fact she had no focus at all and her soul had already flown away. After a battle, Levi was completely certain that she had indeed used human body strengthening drugs, and her physical fitness was about twice that of an ordinary person. Of course, the gap between her and him was too big. In the past hour or so, he only felt that the other party was like an exquisite porcelain doll, and he was afraid that it would be broken if he was not careful. While the other party was in a daze, Levi asked, "Justine, I heard that you went abroad to study. Do you have any other special experiences?" "Well, I did. I was spotted by the Zodiac and have joined them as a junior member." As soon as these words came out, Levi felt as if a layer of fog had been cleared away, and most of the doubts in his heart were dispelled. Although the Zodiac is not well-known, it cannot be ignored in the history of Marvel, because it is the predecessor and prototype of many agent organizations. The Zodiac has a total of twelve leaders, and each leader uses one of the constellations as his nickname. They originally wanted to join forces to fight against other threats from outside the earth. The idea was good, but there are conflicts of interest everywhere, and fighting against aliens is no exception.
For example, after killing the aliens, if there is only one piece of alien technology or weapon left, who should it be given to? Everyone wants to get more, so contradictions and conflicts are inevitable. First, Capricorn and Cancer betrayed, and soon many other members chose to follow suit, causing the zodiac to quickly fall apart. But they also benefited a lot from the Zodiac, and later were able to establish ., Leviathan, the new Zodiac, etc. in various parts of the world. Nick Fury of . is the original Gemini; John Garrett, who is in ., but is actually Hydra, is an Aquarius; Dumdum Duggan, the leader of .'s Howling Commandos, is a Libra. Behind the Red House where Black Widow and others came from is Leviathan, who is manipulating it. Leviathan was actually founded by Capricorn and Cancer, who were the first to betray the zodiac. Naturally, Hydra also has many members, but Hydra became famous during World War II. They were able to survive the war and secretly grow and develop after the war. Those leaders are no pushovers. After frequent infighting, the Zodiac joined the members of Hydra, and later seemed to have all gone awry. Despite this, we can roughly imagine how many talented people were gathered in the original twelve zodiac signs. As for the new Zodiac, Levi didn't know much about who would lead it. The main reason is that the opponent was just a supporting role and didn't make any splash from beginning to end. He only knew that this organization was very different from Hydra or ., and although they were all spy organizations and had a strong desire for power and control, the new Zodiac was more inclined to use economic means rather than force to control the entire earth. Or it may be that their military force is not strong enough, but they have a lot of money, so they can only choose this method. Anyway, there isn't a single famous super villain in it. Levi privately speculated that the number of squids should not be too small. Perhaps it is for this reason that Justine, a woman from Hammer Military Industry, was chosen by the other party. The other party should have adopted a strategy of casting a wide net. This was indeed the case. Justine, who was still very confused, continued as if she was talking in a dream, "The Zodiac originally wanted to train me a little more so that I could come back and compete with my father for power, or even replace him." "I had some hatred towards him because of my mother's affairs, so we hit it off right away." "They also gave me a temporary human enhancement potion that not only made my strength and speed surpass those of ordinary people, but also made my skin much smoother." "Unfortunately, apart from the first three they gave me, each later on cost five million and only lasted for three short days. I needed to earn a lot of money to be able to afford them."
"But the development of the matter was slightly beyond our expectations. They had just trained me for a few months, allowing me to barely protect myself, and my bastard father was sent to prison." "There's no other way. Zodiac can only interrupt the plan in advance and let me return to take over Hammer Military Industries." "But they've been pretty good to me. In addition to helping me pay off my official debts, at least 500 million more will be coming tomorrow to help me rebuild Hammer Military Industries. And this is just the first wave." "Once I give them some of the technology you provided, Levi, I will definitely be able to get more money." "In fact, even if you, Levi, weren't here, the Zodiac would have thought of other ways to help Hammer Industries change its current situation." Of course, Levi's appearance now can save them a lot of trouble and time. "Then what are they asking for in return?" At this point, Justine couldn't help but grit her teeth: "After this is over, they want at least 70% of the equity." Levi blinked and thought to himself, this is really dark. "So are you going to take out your part, or are you going to deal with me?" "I will definitely hand over most of mine, but they won't use it against you. According to the past habits of the Zodiac, they should increase capital and expand shares to dilute your equity." "At the same time, it is also clearly stated in our contract that if anyone can provide new technology that helps the company grow, they will be eligible to receive a certain amount of equity as a reward." Under normal circumstances, Levi certainly couldn't compete with the Zodiac in terms of financial resources or technological development. It wouldn't take long for Levi to be squeezed out. Or if Levi can continue to provide new technologies, it is not completely impossible to keep him as a small shareholder. Before Levi could ask again, Justine changed the subject: "But I don't intend to give in obediently. If I can get stable orders from the military again, I will cut off ties with them after paying them back." "Otherwise, if I give them 70%, wouldn't I just become a worker?" "Oh, that's right." Levi seemed to understand why Justine had not been doing well in the original plot and the Zodiac had not revealed much information. It was probably because she had not been able to cooperate with the Zodiac for a long time. But even so, she didn't seem to encounter any obvious retaliation, and Hammer Military Industries has remained standing for many years. It is conceivable how useless the New Zodiac is now. Of course, it is also possible that they are afraid that organizations such as SHIELD and Hydra will deal with them, so they dare not expose themselves easily. But no matter what, they seem to be good prey for Levi! Thinking of this, Levi asked directly: "Justine, who is the supreme leader responsible for accepting you into the Zodiac?" "It's Sagittarius - Floyd Cohen. His real identity is the founder of Cohen Medical and his net worth is over 500 billion." Levi couldn't help but snort. As expected, even if he hadn't checked the other party's exact race for the time being, he knew that Cohen was one of the most Jewish surnames in the world. He wanted to ask more, but Justine suddenly groaned, covered her head, and then two lines of blood flowed down her nose quickly. At the same time, she seemed to have just woken up from a dream. She looked around in a daze, and then she couldn't help but screamed in pain: "Damn it, Levi, what did you do to me?" "Why would I tell you these secrets without hiding anything? You are going to kill me!" When she felt the pain, she suddenly remembered this incident. Sagittarius actually did some special backup on her and made her forget it through hypnosis! Now that she had spoken the secret without any scruples, the opponent's tactics immediately began to take effect, and she was about to die! In fact, Levi could roughly understand it without her saying much. Because a bit of dark and filthy energy had been lingering in Justine's head, and was faintly trying to form the shape of a skull.
Levi has learned a lot about magic from Yali these days. He recognized it at a glance. This is a voodoo spell that is more popular in Africa. Although it is very low-level and extremely crude, it is still almost unsolvable for ordinary people. This is probably the way Sagittarius keeps secrets. But for Levi, this problem is very easy to solve! As a holy light bloomed between his fingers, the filth disappeared instantly, as if it had never appeared. Whether it is his holy light or the Ghost Rider's hellfire, they are both natural enemies of this curse. This has been recognized by Yali herself! When she saw the holy light and felt the pain in her brain disappear, and even the bleeding seemed to stop immediately, Justine was a little confused. She felt that all this was beyond her imagination. Then in the next moment, she watched as a pair of wings of light extended from behind Levi, and at the same time his skin color turned into a bright gold, even more dazzling than the sunlight. He was like an angel walking out of the light! Levi smiled slightly: "Why, do you still think I'm hurting you?" Justine’s eyes suddenly became a little fiery: “Levi, are you the angel who came to save me?” "Oh, don't be so conceited. I didn't come here just for you. This is just a coincidence." Justine rushed over directly: "I don't care, anyway, you only belong to me now!" (End of this chapter)
