Chapter 208: Inciting Smurfette to Revolt
After several space travels, Levi and others arrived at their destination.
When they saw the planet in front of them, Carol and Brunhilde's expressions suddenly became a little strange, because this is the largest red-light district in the universe, the ice planet - Ketrisha!
Carol couldn't help but ask, "Levi, are you sure we are looking for a woman?"
Levi laughed: "Yes, she is a special woman who has been mechanically transformed."
Carol and the others' expressions became even weirder, and even Rocket couldn't help but chuckle.
The planet Ketrisha itself does not produce any resources, and the star does not favor it, causing this place to remain in a low temperature state all year round.
But the business here is quite booming, with bars and brothels everywhere, and more than 90% of the prostitutes are robots.
I have to say, it’s very interesting that Nebula chose this kind of place.
For her who has undergone a lot of transformation, it should be very easy for her to integrate into this place.
But no matter how hidden she was, wouldn't she be approached by those clients dozens of times a day? Ordinary people couldn't easily tell the difference between her and those robots.
This also shows from the side that Xingyun's bottom line is indeed very low. In order to survive, she can endure misunderstanding and humiliation.
This is a good thing for Levi, because it means that for some greater interests, she definitely doesn't mind cooperating with him!
Although they were very curious about Ketrisha, many girls chose not to follow her. Otherwise, whether they saw something below or were approached by clients, it would greatly affect their mood.
Levi had no intention of taking them there, he just turned to look at Rocket: "Do you and Groot want to go and see it?"
Rocket has different origin stories in different parallel universes.
Sometimes, he was simply used as an experimental subject by the Supreme Evolutionary, staying alone and helpless in the cage all day long.
Sometimes, he had some friends, and when he tried to resist and escape, sometimes some of his friends would survive, and sometimes they would all be killed.
Sometimes, he was initially a test subject, but later turned the tables and became the manager of other test subjects.
After a few days of contact and communication, Levi roughly confirmed that the rockets in this world have pretty good luck.
Not only was he lucky enough to have rabbits, walruses and otters as companions, he also encountered some robots that had awakened their intelligence and collectively rebelled against the Supreme Evolution, launching a rebellion on the planet called "Half-World".
So Rocket and his companions took the opportunity to escape, but the situation was too chaotic and they eventually got separated.
Rocket did not see the death scenes or bodies of his friends, so theoretically they were still in Schrödinger's state of survival.
Rocket and Groot work as mercenaries throughout the universe. On the one hand, they do this to continuously improve their strength and find opportunities to seek revenge on the Supreme Evolution; on the other hand, they are also searching for their lost friends.
It is particularly worth mentioning that Rocket calls the otter "Ms. Leila".
Maybe even he himself has not noticed it, but many people, including Levi, have already discovered something strange. Rocket is most likely in love with Leila!
Of course, Rocket may not understand love at all. No matter how smart he is, he is just a raccoon who is just a few years old.
Rocket was a little tempted. He had always been interested in studying mechanical prosthetics and bionic organs. There were so many robot prostitutes in Ktrichia that he would definitely be dazzled.
He just turned his head and glanced at Janet, and finally refused with great difficulty: "Forget it this time, my research on quantum space is at a critical moment."
He has not forgotten why he was chosen by Levi in the first place!
Li Wei felt a little funny. At this critical moment, you still have time to chat with me? You are still not busy enough!
He nodded casually: "Okay, then you guys just wait for me here for a while, I will be back soon."
Without deliberately disguising himself, Levi flew directly towards Ketrisha with his physical body.
On the way, he would occasionally encounter some large and small spaceships. When they saw him, they hurriedly gave way for fear of causing any trouble.
Interstellar travel is a very common thing, but there are not many people in the entire universe who can do it without using a spacecraft. No matter who the other party is, they are definitely not people they can afford to mess with!
After a dozen breaths, Levi followed the guidance of the Heart of the Universe and came to a private room in a tavern.
There, a rising young soldier from the planet Xandar had been waiting for a long time.
It is slightly worth mentioning that this young soldier comes from a special tribe of orcs, and his appearance looks like a white humanoid tiger.
After seeing Levi, the young soldier couldn't suppress his excitement: "Titus greets the general!"
Levi smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Is your goal still there?"
While speaking, Levi felt a little strange in his heart because he smelled several kinds of lubricants on the other person.
It seems that during the mission, in order to better integrate here, the other party personally experienced the services of those machine prostitutes!
In the entire Nova Corps, this guy should be considered an outlier.
Titus nodded repeatedly. "She was injured again when she robbed the spaceship yesterday. Some parts need to be repaired and replaced. She has asked her newly recruited brother to purchase them. It hasn't been completely completed yet."
In fact, the moment the other party opened his mouth, Levi had already gotten the answer through telepathy.
Titus may have some minor flaws in his personal style, but he is still very concerned about the task assigned by the Heart of the Universe. He tried his best to complete the task and made sure that no one discovered it.
However, his ambition is greater than his ability, and if someone promises him extremely lucrative benefits, he is likely to betray.
For example, the Kree have contacted him secretly several times recently, and behind them is an accuser who controls multiple planets.
Although he is still persisting, it is only because the other party has not offered a sufficiently generous reward.
Everyone knows that once he chooses to betray, the Heart of the Universe will directly cut off all authority, and he will immediately lose all power from the Nova Helmet.
Although the Kree Empire has very advanced technology, even the equipment equipped at the Accuser level can only enhance the attack and defense capabilities. In terms of speed, they cannot match the most ordinary nova. They generally do not even have the ability to fly.
On the other hand, without the Nova Helmet, Titus’ significance to the Kree Empire will be greatly reduced, and the Kree Empire will not treat him too highly.
Under such circumstances, any attempt to persuade members of the Nova Corps to rebel becomes extremely difficult.
However, it doesn't prevent Levi from fishing.
The Supreme Wisdom has been seeking to unlock the shackles of the Kree's evolution. If the secret stone for transforming the cursed warriors is given to Titus, even if he may not have the opportunity to be personally summoned by the Supreme Wisdom who is hidden somewhere unknown, the secret stone will definitely come to the Supreme Wisdom.
At that time, Levi might be able to use the cosmic energy he left there in advance as coordinates, teleport over to forcibly kill the Supreme Wisdom and avenge Carol!
Thinking of this, Levi's expression became gentler: "Very good, thank you for your hard work, leave it to me next."
"It's not hard. It's an honor to serve the General!"
At this moment, Titus said this and thought so in his heart.
This made Levi sigh somewhat, what a complex creature.
After thinking about it, he handed over the manuscript of spicy chicken shreds for making secret stones and a sample.
"This is what I seized from the dark elves. I have other things to do, so you should take it back to Xandar and give it to the Queen and the Heart of the Universe."
He and Wei Jing had already backed up the data, so it was no big deal to hand over the manuscript to the other party.
If Titus chooses to obey orders, this will be a credit to him. If he chooses to use these things to defect to the Kree Empire, it will be just right for fishing.
Titus was stunned for a moment, then ecstatic. He was just an ordinary rising star. Except for the day when he was officially inaugurated as a rising star, how could he have the chance to meet those two people?
He immediately understood that the general was deliberately trying to give him credit!
With his mind racing, he quickly expressed his gratitude and made a bold decision.
"General, I heard that you want to set up a branch for the legion somewhere else. If you need manpower, I will be happy to serve you!"
"Maybe my ability is not outstanding in the legion, but I have been in the legion for many years and have accumulated some experience."
After he finished speaking, Titus felt his heart pounding wildly.
Of course he knew that this was extremely taboo, but it was also a gamble.
He didn't know how many decades he would have to wait before he had a chance to come forward in the Nova Corps, but if he won the bet, he would at least be able to get a position as a blue sergeant captain in the branch, right?
Levi found it more and more interesting. Although Titus looked big and strong, he was actually very smart.
And he looks like a tiger. Maybe if there is a chance, I can take him to get close to the white tiger?
But the prerequisite is that he can pass the test in front of him first!
"Haha, okay, if there is a need, I will give priority to you. Now go and complete your task." Although Titus did not get the answer he wanted most at once, he was still overjoyed.
He quickly expressed his gratitude again, patted his chest and said that he would definitely complete the task, and then left happily.
Even in this situation, he did not lose his mind and did not activate the power of the Nova Helmet, but chose a spaceship.
This surprised Levi a little. Maybe he could really become a good younger brother.
After ending this little episode, Levi leisurely came to the hidden place of the nebula.
Even though she had just escaped from the pursuit of the Stallone couple, she managed to deal with a group of younger brothers in Ketrisha so quickly. She is worthy of being the adopted daughter carefully trained by Thanos.
As soon as Levi had a thought, they all rebelled on the spot and obediently led the way.
When a younger brother opened the door for Levi with an apologetic smile on his face, Xingyun was putting his legs on the table, holding a small screwdriver and repairing his left hand with his right hand.
It's no wonder that even though her whole body has been transformed into a mess and she is a bald blue girl, Levi can still see that her figure and appearance are very good and she has a very good foundation.
Hearing the noise, Xingyun didn't even raise his head: "Just leave the dinner there, and go ask those guys when they can get what I want. I don't want to stay on this disgusting planet any longer!"
"Oh, is that so? Perhaps I can offer you a better option."
Hearing the strange male voice with a hint of smile, Xingyun instantly shot up, first threw away the screwdriver in his hand, then reached for the electromagnetic short stick at his waist with his right hand, showing extremely professional combat qualities.
Faced with the sudden appearance of a stranger, her first reaction was to prepare for battle.
There's no way, her identity determines that she will never have any friends, only enemies!
Unfortunately, in Levi's opinion, without considering mechanical transformation, Nebula, as a Rufenmod, may only be slightly stronger than the original Phantom Ninja Erica on Earth in terms of strength, probably weighing a little over half a ton.
Her skills and other aspects are not clear for now, but her basic attributes have destined her to be just an ordinary block-level player.
There is no flying, no fast movement, and no energy release. Unless you are as strong as Hulk, your fate is to be a minion in the later large-scale battlefields.
However, Nebula, the blue sister, and Gamora, the green sister, both have a unique advantage, that is, they are the adopted daughters of Thanos!
Of course, Thanos couldn't completely trust them. In fact, he kept them like pets, but this meant that he would inevitably be careless at times.
In more than one parallel universe, Nebula seized treasures such as the Infinity Stones and Infinity Gauntlet from Thanos, and in turn imprisoned Thanos.
Gamora is even more ruthless and has killed Thanos several times, which makes her very worth using.
As telekinesis was activated, the next moment, both the ridiculous screwdriver and the nebula itself were forcibly fixed in mid-air like insects in amber.
Without any movement, Levi just moved his mind, and Nebula, still maintaining the forward movement, floated over like a doll.
Although Xingyun struggled hard, her heart quickly sank to the bottom. She knew very well that this time she was probably doomed!
When she saw Levi's face, she was stunned and said in a very strange tone:
"The Nova General actually came to arrest me personally, and coupled with the matter of the Superstar's rebellion, is the Nova Corps planning to go to war with Thanos?"
Levi raised his eyebrows: "Oh, your information is very timely, but Thanos is not worth the Nova Corps' full efforts. Is this a bit disappointing to you?"
"Don't deny it. Superstar has read your true thoughts more than once."
Although on the surface she is temporarily loyal to the Nova Corps and Queen Adora, in reality, the superstar certainly knows who is the one that is most beneficial to her, and she has revealed a lot of relevant information.
It's just that Thanos often likes to be alone, and as a mutated Eternal, he has a good resistance to mental and spiritual powers.
The information that Supergiant got from Thanos was not much more than that of Levi who had read the script. It was probably just more complete in some details.
In contrast, Nebula, Gamora, and the other three Black Order generals except Ebony Maw have all had their inner thoughts peeped into by superstars many times.
He struggled hard again, but nothing happened. Xingyun decided to just give up.
"It seems like she really wants to join you this time. She even told you this. So, how does the Nova Corps plan to deal with me now?"
Although she spoke toughly, she actually felt very bitter in her heart.
She has done many bad things in the past under the command or instructions of Thanos. If she is caught this time, she will probably be imprisoned for at least one or two hundred years.
If Gamora knew about this, she would probably feel very happy, right?
Li Wei smiled and said, "That depends on whether you are willing to cooperate with us."
Xingyun was stunned again, but she was not stupid and she reacted immediately.
"You guys actually want to deal with him? Are you planning to make me an undercover agent?"
Levi nodded readily: "Yes, as long as you agree, I can pardon your past crimes on behalf of the Nova Corps and give you more rewards."
"For example, I can make you a member of the Nova Corps, or even allow you to have a normal body again."
Cloning technology is not considered high-tech in the universe. Only a few cells from a nebula are needed to clone a new body.
The difficulty lies in how to smoothly transfer her soul and consciousness to the new body.
But if you use magic, it will be very easy, and Levi just happens to have mastered this trick.
As for letting Nebula join the Nova Corps, it was not Levi's casual suggestion.
At the beginning, Nebula, who was controlled by Thanos, had no right to make her own choices, and there was not much difference between her and the knife in the butcher's hand.
But after gaining his freedom, Nebula did a lot of good things.
Strictly speaking, Nebula in the later period can barely be considered an anti-hero.
In Marvel's "What If" series, Nebula did join the Nova Corps and did a pretty good job.
And you have to know that the Nova Corps of this universe is ridiculously weak, with neither the Heart of the Universe nor the Nova Helmet.
After she joined the Nova Corps, she usually just drove a small car and wandered around with a small pistol.
Even so, she still enjoyed doing it.
Now Levi has given so many chips in one go, I believe she won’t be tempted!
This is indeed the case. After hearing it, Xingyun was stunned. For a moment he even doubted his own ears. Is there such a good thing?
Once the opponent's plan succeeds, he will be able to break free from Thanos' control, obtain the power of the Nova Helmet, and more importantly, get the normal body he has always dreamed of?
Even though he knew that the other party would never joke about such an issue, Xingyun couldn't help but ask, "Is what you said true?"
Levi was not vague either. He let go of the opponent and threw a Nova helmet over.
"Before you truly earn my trust, it will only open up some permissions to you. But if you can prove with actual actions that you are worthy of it, I can make the decision and let you truly join the Nova Corps!"
The danger also stimulated a little bit of power at the right time, allowing Xingyun to feel the real power, and then it quickly softened into a palm-sized ball so that she could carry it with her.
Xingyun took a deep breath, and his eyes quickly became firm, filled with hope and excitement.
"Okay, I promise you, what should I do next?"
Levi smiled slightly: "Prove your loyalty to the Legion first. For example, start by stealing some items from Thanos!"
