Chapter 129 The New Seven
The first thing Levi did when he took office, apart from some routine formalities, was to publicly recruit suitable candidates from all over the world to fill the vacancy of the Seven.
The locomotive retired, the motherland died, and Black took the initiative to dig out the tracking chip, which has been missing to this day.
Considering that he was Soldier Boy's old teammate in Blood Debt, he might have been killed in secret.
Or even if he didn't die, he chose to escape at this critical moment, so it was only natural for Walter to completely eliminate him.
So of the original seven people, there are only four left: Levi, Maeve, Deep Sea and Starlight, and there are still three gaps.
Originally according to Watt's rules, this matter required Watt to make a comprehensive consideration of the other party's strength, popularity, obedience, potential commercial value and other aspects, and then select the right candidate.
But now that Levi has full authority, he will naturally appoint people based on personal connections.
He first let Kate graduate early so that she could also experience the addiction of being a member of the Seven.
As for the fact that Kate did not graduate from Lamplighter Academy but studied something related to superhero agents, everyone selectively ignored this fact. No one would be stupid enough to go against Levi at this time and on this matter.
By the way, Levi plans to let Kate play with Starlight.
Xingguang has been having some unrealistic fantasies recently and trying to become his official girlfriend, but Levi doesn't have this idea and hopes Kate can make her give up.
Although Kate is clearly at a disadvantage in many aspects such as combat power and popularity, just a telepathy can help her make up for a lot.
Of course, with her current strength, unless she deliberately targets them, it will not have much effect on Starlight or Maeve.
Previously, in the X-Men's treasure trove, Levi found a dozen gadgets that could block telepathy, and he had given them to several female superheroes with whom he had had intimate relationships.
It was originally intended to prevent people with psychic abilities such as Psychic Storm. Levi didn't want the scenes of him and them making love to be known to outsiders.
Levi gave the second spot to Locomotive, allowing him to realize his wish and return to the Seven.
Although the two had some hostility at first, the many performances of the locomotive later made Levi look at him with admiration again and again.
From untrustworthy, to worth using, and then to worth using very much.
Especially when Levi asked the locomotive to take Becca away, he had actually discovered that it was the territory of his motherland, but he still chose to execute Levi's orders, which made Levi more satisfied with him.
More importantly, Levi knew through telepathy that the locomotive had discovered who had broken his leg.
After all, after Homelander's death, in order to remove the title of wanted criminals, the information about Butcher and others would inevitably leak out.
Levi, who had hung out with them several times, was undoubtedly the most suspicious and the most capable of dealing with him.
But the locomotive did not have much resentment in its heart, instead it felt a little grateful.
He knew very well that even if that incident had not happened, he would be forced to retire sooner or later because his heart could not bear the burden. The people of his motherland never had any mercy on useless people.
Now he is retired, and not only did Walter give him a large pension, Levi also found him a better job, and he also got a new heart. He should be grateful to Levi.
And one more thing, his girlfriend, the Demon Claw Girl, had leaked the information about Compound No. 5. In order to prevent her from being retaliated against by her home country, he sent the Demon Claw Girl abroad overnight.
Now that Homelander was dead, the two of them could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Since the locomotive was so sensible, Levi decided to promote him a little.
And another thing is that since the destruction of the Karaman family, the locomotive seemed to have awakened. He began to conduct targeted investigations on the intelligence about the persecution of black people by many Jewish consortiums.
Levi felt that if he pushed him a little bit, maybe the locomotive could follow the footsteps of the mustache and become an anti-squid pioneer, but he didn't know if he would be keen on making soap. Questioning the mustache, understanding the mustache, and then becoming the mustache, as he learned more about the squid, the process changed so naturally.
Levi's biggest objection to the mustache guy was his Nazi identity.
But now even this has changed. What he is disgusted with is why the mustache guy didn't do it more thoroughly at the beginning? Otherwise, how could there be all these subsequent troubles?
After receiving this appointment, there is no need to mention the gratitude that the locomotive was showing to him.
On the other hand, his former boss, Tek Knight, had no objection to this.
On the one hand, he has firmly stood on Levi's side. On the other hand, after certain exchanges of interests and comprehensive considerations, he will lead Golden Boy, Supersonic, Shock Wave and others to the other world as the first group.
There is no doubt about the wisdom of Knight Tek. In Levi's view, he is a monkey version of Iron Man + Batman.
As long as they don't act rashly, with their strength, it won't take long for them to establish a solid stronghold there.
In fact, Walter originally hoped that Psionic Storm would lead the team. With a psychic around, many things would be much easier to handle.
But then Golden Boy's brother, Sam, who had been locked up in the bushes for so long as a subject of experiments, would become a serious problem.
They couldn't ask Kate for help, so they had to find a second-rate superhero with similar abilities but who was obviously much weaker as a substitute, and also found a few superheroes with thick skin and flesh to act as meat shields.
At the same time, Tek Knight also successfully replicated the Green Goblin's glider. With the blueprint in hand, this thing seemed very simple to him.
In addition to being able to arm Supersonic and others, he also gave Levi an assembly line.
As long as Levi prepared enough materials, he would be able to produce gliders in small batches and hand them over to Kate and others without any help from others.
As for the last spot, Levi symbolically consulted Wolverine.
After this period of hard work, he has copied all of Wolverine's abilities.
As expected, he was rejected. Wolverine didn't want to be a superhero, especially in this world.
However, when Laura grows up, if she is interested, he will not deliberately stop her.
So Levi left it vacant temporarily, to give other superheroes hope.
After roughly confirming these things, Levi started the teleportation to another world under the watchful eyes of Edgar, Walter and other board members.
The fastest Shock Wave stepped in first to check the surrounding situation. After giving a signal of absolute safety, Supersonic, Tek Knight and several second- and third-rate superheroes who served as auxiliary also filed in.
Jin Tong stayed until the end. He looked at Levi with great gratitude: "Angel, thank you very much for choosing me. I will definitely not let you down!"
He had to admit that at first, he was somewhat hostile to angels because of Kate.
But now his thoughts have undergone a major change. Perhaps only an angel is worthy of Kate. He will sincerely wish her well and will use all his energy to explore the new world in the future!
This made Levi feel quite interesting. If Jin Tong could really achieve something, it might not be a bad idea to keep him alive.
So he just said a few words of encouragement, which made Jintong even more excited.
However, Levi felt that Edgar and Walter might not give Golden Boy this opportunity. After all, the matter between his brother Sam and the bushes was always a hidden danger.
The best outcome would be that Jin Tong died as a hero after helping Walter gain enough benefits.
Maybe by then I can brainwash Sam and let him continue exploring the new world in the name of revenge for the Golden Boy!
