Chapter 189: Blame on Thanos Adora's gratitude to Levi reached a new level. In this operation to capture the superstar, Levi was undoubtedly the biggest contributor. If it weren't for him and Danger, and the Supergiant was allowed to lurk on Xandar for a long time, with the power it displayed, who knows how much harm it would cause to the Nova Corps. Several rising stars nearby had already pounced on the unconscious supergiant. In the shortest possible time, they used all kinds of restrictive measures such as potions and collars on the supergiant. This was enough to ensure that even if she woke up immediately, she would never be able to seduce anyone again. Soon, the Heart of the Universe calculated the approximate losses and transmitted them to Adora, which made her look at the superstar even more unfriendly. Not only did this guy sneak into Xandar, he also controlled the local indigenous people to carry out multiple murders and extortions, which is already a long list of crimes. Especially when she was discovered at the end, the indiscriminate attack she launched under the control of the new stars caused a huge amount of losses and casualties. This is bound to leave a major stain on the resumes of those rising stars that cannot be washed away. Those rising stars who originally had the potential to have a bright future will most likely find it difficult to get promoted in their lifetime. How can she not be angry?
Grinding her teeth secretly, Adora turned and looked at Levi. "Your Highness Levi, do you have any suggestions on how to deal with the superstar?" Li Wei smiled and said, "Everything is up to the Queen's wishes, but I think it would be better to kill this kind of extremely evil person after resolving the current dilemma and completing the formal trial, unless there are other special circumstances." "If Thanos or anyone else wants revenge, let them come to me." Someone like Superstar would never easily join anyone. She is not even loyal to Thanos. How could Levi dare to use her? After the successful copy, she naturally lost most of her value. So decisive? Adora hesitated, neither agreeing nor rejecting. She just said that no matter what retaliation there was afterwards, it should be borne by the Nova Corps, not Levi, the guest. Levi thought that it was no wonder that the superstar dared to cause trouble. Besides the fact that her own abilities were rather special and powerful, she was probably also familiar with the way the Nova Corps dealt with criminals. Perhaps in the eyes of the Nova Corps itself, using imprisonment instead of execution can be considered a mercy, but for many criminals, it is a weakness. The rewards of crime are high, but the cost is so low. Even if they are caught, there is a great chance of escaping afterwards. This directly leads to their extraordinary courage. If people were executed on the spot for any mistake they made, the crime rate would definitely be reduced drastically. At this moment, Adora's face changed again, and before Levi could ask, she spoke directly. "Your Highness Levi, the Sovereign's vanguard, a total of 18 million drones and 30,000 space destroyers, have arrived 30,000 light years away from Xandar." In the universe, this distance cannot be considered a safe distance. Li Wei thought to himself that they were worthy of being Sovereigns. Their strength matched their arrogant attitude. If they didn't take action, it would be fine. But when they did, their attack was so heavyweight, and this was just a vanguard. No wonder all the Xandar people, including Adora, don't want to fight with each other. He glanced at the still unconscious Superstar and said, "Now it all depends on whether the Sovereigns are willing to believe that she is the culprit. If they insist on fighting, I'm afraid we will have no choice but to fight back." Levi had no intention of making choices for Adora, he was just helping. It’s a pity that even though the superstar was in a coma, her mental defense was still quite strong. Levi tried several times but failed to break through it.
Adora couldn't help but grit her teeth again. It was all because of this damn superstar. Her team was at the critical moment of preparing to fight against the Fallen, but she came to make trouble! With just a glance, a centurion nearby, who had already been very unhappy with the superstar, slapped the superstar several times and woke him up. "Tell me, what conspiracy did Thanos use to send you to Xandar?" After taking a look at the surrounding situation, the superstar immediately chose to follow his heart. Not caring about the pain on her face, she replied very obediently: "It's not Thanos's conspiracy, it's my personal behavior." "At this point, you're still covering for Thanos?" The superstar shook his head: "No, it's really just my personal behavior. I'm here to find a dog." Adora was almost laughing out of anger: "Do you think I will believe it?" Just to find a dog, she risked her life to sneak into Xandar and made such a big fuss. Was she being treated as a fool? The rising stars around her all had unfriendly looks on their faces. Using mental control was a big taboo, but the other party even dared to play tricks on them after being arrested. It seemed that she had not suffered enough! The superstar quickly explained: "It's not an ordinary dog, it's a very special dog." "Its abilities are somewhat similar to mine. It can also use telepathy and mind barriers!" Adora was full of doubts about life. She knew that dogs were found on many planets. There are numerous subspecies derived from it, such as those with long wings, eight legs or three heads, and many people like to keep them as pets. But since when did psychic abilities become so cheap? The rising stars around were even more like "are you kidding me?" If it weren't for the fact that the Queen and the distinguished guest Levi were right in front of them, I'm afraid someone would have already started cursing and even punched the superstar. Levi, however, became slightly more interested: "Is its name Cosmo?" As he spoke, he used some holy light to construct the image of a half-meter-long dog wearing a space suit. The superstar nodded hurriedly: "I don't know the name for now, but yes, this is what it looks like!" Adora also saw something: "Your Highness Levi, what is it?" Levi nodded: "If nothing unexpected happens, it should have been lost from my country." To be more precise, it was sent into space by the former Soviet Union. After being abandoned, it was exposed to cosmic radiation, which gave it super psychic abilities and intelligence similar to that of an ordinary person. It later wandered in the universe for several years before eventually falling into the hands of Gao Tianzun, becoming one of his collections. Its ability is just as Supergiant said. Similar to most psychics, Cosmo's body is very weak. He is just an ordinary earth dog. He will die if shot in the vital parts. It also does not have the ability to survive in space, so it must wear a space suit at all times. Nevertheless, no one can ignore its power and future potential. It is slightly worth mentioning that it later became a member of the Annihilus Alliance. This organization may not be very famous and may not have lasted long, but if you mention the names of their members, I'm afraid many people will feel familiar with them. Silver Glider, the former envoy of Galactus, Dujian, the leader of the Shi'ar Empire's Royal Guard, Bill, the Horse-Faced Thundergod, and Ronan, the Supreme Accuser of the Kree In order to fight against powerful enemies such as the Annihilation Zerg from the negative space, they stood together briefly and chose to fight side by side.
The fact that Cosmo can associate with these powerful and extremely proud beings can also indirectly illustrate its strength. As for the method of bribing Cosmo, Levi has already prepared it, the same method he used to deal with Rocket Raccoon. No matter in which parallel universe, Cosmo has never gained extra life due to cosmic radiation. The lifespan of an ordinary dog is only a dozen or twenty years. Cosmo was sent into space by the former Soviet Union, but the Soviet Union disintegrated in 1991, and now it is 2011. Even if we calculate according to the most ideal situation, Cosmo is over 20 years old, which is basically the old age of a dog, or even the end of his life. How many years can he live? The more intelligent and powerful a creature is, the more it tends to cling to life. Levi really couldn't find any reason why Cosmo would refuse. We might even be able to play the emotional card a bit. Of course, we cannot use the name of the former Soviet Union, but have to use the name of our fellow countrymen around the world. But Cosmo is of no use to me, if I sell him to Adora. With his mind racing, Levi condensed his words a little and told Adora the origin of Cosmo and how to deal with it, asking her to try to find and bribe Cosmo. By the way, he also gave a rune as a gift. This thing doesn't mean much to him, but it's just right to give it to Cosmo. Even if it's all used up, he can go back and ask Loki for some more. At the same time, he also said more tactfully that he had actually planned to give the runes as a gift to the beautiful queen, but the effects of the current runes were not strong enough, and he felt a little embarrassed to give them away. When his strength improves and he finds better quality materials, he will definitely give her runes with better effects. Levi doesn't want Adora to be jealous, and this also involves some etiquette issues. After listening to this, Adora became even more grateful to Levi. According to what Levi said, coupled with the many benefits that the Nova Corps could provide, she didn't think Cosmo would be stupid enough to refuse. Once with its help, even if the Nova Corps encounters an enemy like Supergiant again in the future, it will never be as embarrassed as it is today. "Your Highness Levi, the Nova Corps and I will always remember your kindness." She didn't mention anything about repaying him, because she still had two things to trouble Levi with, so she decided to talk about it after everything was over. And now she is starting to have a headache about what kind of return gift to choose. In order to be consistent with Levi's identity and to show one's sincerity, one must not accept ordinary gifts. She thought about it and wondered what else she could offer besides the Nova Helmet. Seeing that the matter had come to an end, Superstar quickly spoke up: "I am willing to cooperate. I am willing to explain to the Sovereigns that all this is actually Thanos' conspiracy!" Adora couldn't help but raise her eyebrows at the superstar's sudden change: "What's your conspiracy?" Superstar said in a flattering manner: "There is no conspiracy. I just want to make up for the mistakes I made. Thanos is too sinister. He even tried to stir up disputes between the Nova Corps and the Sovereigns. I must stand up and point out the truth." The superstar lied so blatantly that many people present didn't know what to say. Levi saw something: "Are you a half-blood Kree?" The superstar nodded quickly: "Yes, my Kree bloodline is less than 10%. I have not benefited from it. On the contrary, I have suffered discrimination because of my skin color." Levi nodded secretly. There were many races within the Kree Empire, but the one with the highest status among them was undoubtedly the pure-blooded blue-skinned Kree. Others in purple, light blue, etc. are all second-class citizens, doing more work, enjoying less pay, and have no chance of promotion.
If they want to succeed, they have to work several times harder. In fact, the Kree, who originally had some white skin, were similar to the Inhumans in the shadow of the moon, and they also had hidden superpowers. But after the Supreme Wisdom came to power, it regarded them all as unstable and unsafe factors, and with a single order, killed them all en masse. Despite this, under normal circumstances, the half-blood Kree had a fairly good status in the Kree Empire. Because the Kree Empire owns thousands of planets and has third-, fourth-, and fifth-class citizens, the mixed-race Kree people can't be considered at the bottom. For example, the race that Mantis belonged to in Guardians of the Galaxy was actually under the command of the Kree Empire. Basically their entire clan has had their reproductive functions castrated by the Supreme Intelligence, and they are just waiting to be exterminated. That is the real bottom of the society. But if it were outside the Kree Empire, mixed-bloods like Superstar would inevitably be subjected to various forms of discrimination and exclusion. There is no way. The Kree Empire is a conqueror. Most of the thousands of planets they own now were conquered by force. Therefore, there are too many races or forces that have hatred towards them. These people have no way, or do not have the courage, to take revenge on the Kree Empire, so they will naturally try to find ways to retaliate against the mixed-race Kree people who are living outside. Even if a supergiant is very strong, he will inevitably suffer this treatment. But this is not the point; the point is the next question. "Including lifespan?" The superstar nodded honestly: "Including life span." Now Adora understood the superstar's purpose, and she felt angry and amused at the same time. "After committing such a huge mistake, you not only expect to be forgiven, but also want to covet His Highness Levi's treasure?" The conversation between her and Levi just now did not deliberately exclude the superstar, but unexpectedly it gave the other party such unrealistic fantasies. Levi felt that it seemed possible: "How many years do you have left to live?" "Less than three years." The superstar became more and more honest, but at the same time, he could hardly hide his excitement. The problem that she had been unable to solve for many years following Thanos might now be unexpectedly answered here. When she thought of this, she couldn't stop feeling annoyed and regretful, not about Levi or Adora, but about her own impulsiveness. If my revenge plan had been postponed for another day, after I had obtained this information, why would I have caused so much trouble? Now, she doesn’t know how much more effort she will have to put in to gain the other party’s trust and recognition! After hearing this, Levi had a general understanding. If the timeline of the movie universe is followed normally, Thanos will have to wait about six or seven years before commanding the Black Order to invade the Earth. By that time, the superstar's body had been cold for several years, no wonder she didn't appear. But of course Levi wouldn't act on his own, he just turned and looked at Adora.
"Your Majesty, I can try to prepare more runes after I return to Asgard." After hearing this, how could Adora not understand what Levi meant? But to be honest, it was really attractive to her. Killing a superstar would have no meaning other than venting one's anger. But if we can bring them under our command, we can first more effectively resolve the current misunderstanding between us and the Sovereigns. Secondly, with her and the dog named Cosmo's help, the Nova Corps will no longer have to worry about the problems they faced today. However, the Nova Corps also has to bear certain risks and costs, and she cannot be sure that the superstars are truly loyal to them. If she were allowed to stay inside the legion, gain more intelligence and come into contact with more legion members, once she rebelled, the damage and casualties she could cause would undoubtedly be much higher than today. In addition, the current leader of the Supergiant Corps, the Mad Titan, will definitely not give up. Of course, even if there was no incident today, the Nova Corps and Thanos, the leader of the Space Pirates, were originally in a hostile state. After thinking it over, Adora threw the question to the superstar: "How can I trust you?" The superstar said very respectfully: "I will use practical actions to show my sincerity. In addition, His Highness Levi, who was born in Asgard, should have some special magic that can restrain me, right?" She had already seen that Levi had little interest in her, but Levi was very interested in Adora. Then she might as well adopt a roundabout strategy, stay by Adora's side first, and then find a way to help Levi get what he wants. In this way, there is no need to worry that Levi will not appreciate her kindness! Levi nodded: "There is indeed such magic, but it needs to be used again every once in a while." He had copied it from Amora, but because he had psychic abilities before, he didn't use this kind of magic that required preparing spellcasting materials and paying a price to the ancient gods. Anyway, the effects were basically the same. He originally planned to find an opportunity to communicate with Amora, find a way to get the World Tree for free, completely avoid the cost of casting spells, and then study magic in depth. But it doesn't matter if we use a few spells temporarily now. After all, Ancient One has already said that we can ask the unknown people in the underground of Kamar-Taj to help bear the cost. And it has to be said that magic is indeed a very good choice for people with psychic abilities like superstars. Adora felt relieved, and to be honest, she didn't have much time to hesitate. While they were dealing with the supergiant problem, urgent intelligence continued to arrive from the front line. Not only did the Sovereigns continue to send more troops, they had also tentatively launched some small-scale attacks from multiple directions. If it really drags on, when the war breaks out, no matter what the initial cause of the war was, both sides will have no choice but to continue fighting. This universe is full of dangers. No matter which force shows weakness, there will be more malicious beings ready to launch invasion and attack. Anyway, Thanos already has enough sins on his shoulders, so it doesn't matter if we throw a few more at him. What she should be more concerned about now is what kind of reward she should give to Levi. God knows how often the magic Levi mentioned should be used. If it was once a week, wouldn't Levi be her subordinate? This favor was a bit too much. Even so, she didn't have time to think about it any further for now, so she decided to just get through the current difficulties.
"Your Highness Levi, thank you for your help!" "Easy to say!" The plan was set, and Levi took action immediately, releasing several powerful soul-binding spells on the supergiant. If she really did anything abnormal afterwards, Levi could kill her with just a thought. In fact, under normal circumstances, even if the superstar does not understand any magic at all, with her mental strength, she can still resist to a certain extent, although it is useless. But in order to gain the trust of Levi and Adora, she not only did not resist, but actively cooperated, which made things much easier for Levi. This also made Adora's expression look a little better. It seemed that the superstar was indeed sincere. Levi was not too surprised. He compromised for a while in exchange for at least several decades of life. This deal was a great value! And to be honest, if he could really clean himself up in disguise here at the Nova Corps, it would be much better than following Thanos and being wanted by most of the universe. At the same time, this also allowed Levi to have a better understanding of Adora, the rising star queen. Although she was a little saintly at times, she was not completely inflexible. She had absolutely no objection to the superstar's suggestion to put the blame on Thanos! Although the other Nova Corps present felt a little uncomfortable with the supergiant being given such a cheap deal, for the Nova Corps and Xandar, this was indeed a choice that maximized benefits. What's more, it was an order from the Queen, so they finally chose to suppress their dissatisfaction. However, they all secretly made up their minds that from now on, they would keep a close eye on the superstar's every move. If the other party commits other mistakes and is punished for both crimes, the Queen will not forgive her anymore, right? After rehearsing the lines again to ensure that no unnecessary accidents would occur, Queen Adora prepared to start long-distance communication and request a formal dialogue with the Sovereigns. After thinking about it, Levi activated his golden skin and used holy light to materialize armor and wings of light. Adora's attention was drawn almost immediately, and her eyes were shining brightly for a moment. Without further ado, she already understood what Levi meant. Almost everything about the Sovereigns is glittering with gold, but now Levi's appearance looks much more dazzling than that of ordinary Sovereigns. It's not just about the color, but also about a noble and mysterious aura. Coupled with Mjolnir on his waist and the deterrence brought by Asgard behind him, the other party will definitely be more willing to communicate quietly. And she had to admit that Levi looked really handsome in this state! She thanked Levi again before choosing Link Communications. A few breaths later, a woman glittering with golden light appeared on the other side. She sat on a throne made of the same gold, and behind her was a magnificent hall. Before she could even see who was here, she shouted angrily, "Damn Xandar, damn Nova Corps, how dare you rob the supreme, flawless, noble and elegant. Ugh." Normally, she would have needed to use dozens of adjectives to describe her race, but when she said the third word, she was stunned. Because she saw Levi standing beside Adora, like a golden angel.
Her breathing suddenly became a little rapid, and she even forgot what she was going to say. She just stood up from the throne subconsciously: "Who are you?" Levi shook the Meow Hammer, causing it to sparkle with lightning: "Hello, High Priest Agatha, I am Levi." He also didn't expect that the effect of his skin would be many times better than he had expected. The look in Agatha's eyes when she looked at him was more than just ordinary admiration or liking. She was just like Daisy, and couldn't wait to "eat" him. However, according to the information he had previously obtained, the Sovereigns were all cloned. They developed in fertility pods and did not have the traditional way of creating humans, nor did they know anything about it. But now looking at the expression of the high priestess, she doesn't seem to be completely ignorant of this. Even if she has never actually practiced it, she must have secretly watched a lot of porn movies and the like. But that's true, as the current supreme leader and religious leader of the Sovereigns, she would naturally have many privileges. After catching a glimpse of the dancing lightning, Agatha instantly calmed down a lot: "I have heard of Thor, the God of Thunder, but you are a successor who is countless times better than him." "Your Highness Levi, as the High Priest of the Sovereigns, I sincerely invite you to be my guest!" Seeing this, Adora next to her felt a little speechless. She had indeed placed her hopes on Levi before, but now things seemed to be going in a direction that was a little off. Did Agatha really just want to invite Levi to be her guest? Levi still smiled and waited: "Thank you for the compliment, High Priest. I will be happy to go there later, but I want to help clarify a misunderstanding at the moment." "Misunderstanding? Are you talking about the shameful actions that the Nova Corps has committed against us Sovereigns? This is a provocation for war." Agatha was shouting very loudly, but unfortunately, her secret swallowing of saliva was noticed by Levi and Adora. This made Adora even more speechless. How come you have never seen a man before? Do you know what kind of occasion this is? Levi's expression remained unchanged: "In fact, this is a conspiracy of Thanos. The Nova Corps has no intention of making enemies with the powerful Sovereigns." Adora also forced herself to calm down and nodded: "Yes, Thanos tried to provoke a war between us so that he could profit from it." "I think someone as wise as High Priest Agatha would not be deceived by such a low-level conspiracy. It's just that the people below don't have your wisdom, which ultimately led to the current situation." The two of them chatted with each other, constantly praising Agatha. A few nice words are nothing if it means avoiding a war. For Adora, avoiding war is the best outcome. As for Levi, he has helped Adora so much, and now he has to help deal with the Fallen. How should Adora repay him? Before this, Agatha had heard similar words countless times. But now that it was Levi who was speaking, the situation was completely different. She felt very happy. Seeing that her attitude had obviously softened a lot, Levi also pulled the superstar out as a witness in a timely manner. In fact, according to their previous plan, the superstar witness and her testimony should have been the most important, but Agatha's reaction now told everyone present that her words played a supporting role at most. As it turned out, this was indeed the case. Agatha didn't take the superstar seriously at all. She just nodded casually. "I have heard of Thanos's notoriety. If this is his conspiracy, then everything can be explained. I will not let him succeed." After secretly glancing at Levi again, she deliberately said with a straight face: “Adora, don’t think that I am doing this for your sake. This is entirely out of my trust in His Highness Levi!” Even though she and Levi had only known each other for less than ten minutes, she seemed to think highly of him.
Everyone present knew the reason very well. She was just greedy for Levi's body. Of course, Levi didn't refuse. We have finally left the Earth. If we have the chance, what's wrong with having a few Western meals in space? Although she was covered in gold, when Agatha stood up, it was obvious that she was at least meters tall and had a pretty good figure. But if Agatha wanted to create more perfect offspring by collecting his tadpoles, then it can only be said that she was making a wrong calculation. Levi has always been very concerned about this aspect. He doesn't want a few sons or daughters to come and claim them as his relatives one day. It’s just that we don’t know yet whether she has already started creating the future warlock Adam? There was once a warlock named Adam in a parallel universe who eventually became the Living Tribunal and was considered one of the most powerful beings in the entire Marvel Universe. Although the Adam Warlocks in other parallel universes are not as powerful, they are usually related to the Soul Gem among the Infinity Gems and can use special cosmic powers. That is the power that Uncle Tun bestowed on his messengers, which is much superior to ordinary energy in nature. To compare it to martial arts novels, the internal force is purer and can exert greater power with less strength. It is also very easy to replenish it, just relying on various radiations in the universe. Therefore, Uncle Tun's messengers or former messengers are not only excellent in offense and defense, but also rarely have their energy completely exhausted. But if the Warlock Adam has not yet been created by the other party, it won’t be a big problem. Due to the special relationship between the Flame Emperor, Skywalker, and the Nova Corps, it would be easy to become friends with them as long as he could help kill the Fallen later. Levi was thinking to himself there, and so was Adora. She still had a smile on her face, but she kept telling herself in her heart, don't be angry, don't be angry, Agatha is not targeting me, she is like this to everyone Oh, now there might be an additional surprise, Levi. Agatha’s attitude towards Levi is abnormally nice. Seeing Adora's patience, Agatha, who had gotten the upper hand, did not continue to be aggressive, but chose to quit while she was ahead. As the leader of a race and a force, she is not a real fool. Even though all Sovereigns are extremely arrogant, it depends on the individual. With Levi as a special middleman, Adora gave Agatha enough face and expressed that she would make certain compensation. After all, no matter what the original reason was, the Sovereigns did lose some property because of it, and the ones who did it were indeed members of the Nova Corps. After a period of communication, Agatha finally made the decision to withdraw the Sovereign fleet to avoid unnecessary conflict with the Nova Corps. At the same time, she was busy confirming with Levi when to visit the Sovereign's home planet. It seems that in her opinion, this matter is more important than the war with the Nova Corps or even Thanos's instigation. Levi did not give her a definite answer. On the one hand, he didn't know when he could deal with the Fallen. On the other hand, when Agatha invited him, he happily went. So what was the difference between him and a gigolo? Agatha said as soon as she heard it: "If it is His Highness Levi's trouble, the Sovereigns are willing to help. We are more trustworthy than the Nova Corps." As she said this, she glanced at Adora with disdain. Adora gritted her teeth and kept reminding herself not to bother with idiots. Just now, with Levi's great help, she managed to prevent the Nova Corps from fighting with the Sovereigns. The hard-earned peace could not be wasted because of such a small matter. But the more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Agatha was so infuriating! But as she thought about it, her mood suddenly improved.
Because she realized one thing: Levi, whom Agatha loved but could not get, was standing right in front of her! Levi smiled and refused: "Thank you for your kindness, High Priest. It's about the Nova Corps." Upon hearing this, Agatha immediately lost interest. Even if the two sides couldn't fight now, she had no time to help Adora. With this time, she could supervise the unmanned fleet to find a few more beautiful planets and bring them back to the vicinity of the mother planet as decoration, or urge scientists to continuously improve the adjustment of DNA. After asking again and confirming that Levi really could not give her an exact time of visit, she ended the call with a little reluctance. The superstar who had watched the whole thing from beginning to end couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw this. She originally thought that she might be taken away by the other party and executed as one of the culprits. She was also worried whether Levi and Adora would choose to abandon her for the safety of the Nova Corps. I didn't expect Agatha to let her go so easily. Levi is really amazing in every sense of the word! Adora thought the same thing. After expressing her sincere gratitude again, Adora warmly invited Levi to attend the next banquet and said that she would introduce Levi to a lot of beauties from Xandar. Even though telepathy didn't work on her, Levi understood what she meant in an instant. Really, I have clearly expressed my interest in her several times, and those rising stars must have reported the relevant information to her, but she actually mentioned this specifically now. Her true thoughts are actually very obvious. This must be a test! After I pass it, I might be able to obtain the knowledge about the Nova Helmet and the Nova Field, and even Adora herself, right?
