American comics: From the black robe, friendship becomes stronger

Chapter 41: Visiting the Locomotive
"King of Cards, the CIA told me that the Navy SEALs launched a plan against al-Qaeda members in Damascus, the capital of Syria, and killed the mastermind behind the incident on Transoceanic Flight 37."

"Oh, what then?"

Li Wei thought to himself that Americans are really something. Once something happens, they will definitely take it out on those who are easy to bully.

Even though the hijackers on the plane were typical white men, they still managed to find a scapegoat outside.

"Then they encountered a man with 'Nakib' tattooed on his body, and an energy blast came out of his body, instantly wiping out the entire elite team."

"Ok?"

Levi immediately pretended to be very surprised: "Butcher, are you saying that Walter also created a super villain there?"

"Super villain? This word is quite appropriate. Yes, it is indeed like that."

"What's the CIA's response?"

"The operation against Vought has been put on hold again. They need Vought's superheroes to deal with this Naqib. After all, no one knows how many super villains there are like this."

"Yes, if you find one cockroach, there must be countless more in the darkness."

In terms of destructive power alone, an ordinary third-line super hero is certainly not as good as a missile, but in terms of comprehensive practical value, a third-line super hero is much better.

"When did this happen?"

Levi knew very well that with the value that Butcher and his men had shown so far, the CIA would definitely not tell them the latest intelligence in real time, even if Butcher had been a lover of the deputy director.

"Two days ago, Naqib has been killed by Xuanse, the Ministry of National Defense has agreed to keep the matter of Compound No. 5 confidential, and we are wanted."

At this point, the butcher on the other end of the phone looked frustrated.

With the help of the King of Cards, they finally got the key evidence. As a result, not only has there been no progress, but because of the existence of Naqib, Walter Chaoying's plan to join the military has been greatly accelerated!

"Well, it looks like you need to try to find a new backer."

"Yeah, we're going to go find Soldier Boy next!"

His old lover promised him that the CIA would protect Breastfeeding's family and Huey's father, but they could only go abroad temporarily to avoid the limelight and bring the soldier boy back by the way.

But before leaving, the butcher decided to do one more thing, to severely hurt his fellow countrymen.

He got another crucial information from his former boss, Colonel Mallory: Homelander also has weaknesses, and there is some twisted relationship between him and Vought's Vice President, Madeline!

"Well, I wish you a safe journey?"

Levi didn't know for the time being that the butcher was so bold. He just felt quite satisfied that these bastards had gone abroad and he didn't have to be their babysitter anymore.

"Thanks. Also, do you want the CIA Deputy Director's personal phone number?"

"Oh, it seems they are not stupid. Give it to me. Maybe it will come in handy someday."

When he rescued Kimiko before, he randomly made up the nickname of Wolf Claw for her, which indeed fooled the onlookers around.

But after a detailed investigation, any smart person would find that there were too many things wrong and the CIA was not completely useless.

After hanging up the phone, Levi bought some gifts at a roadside supermarket and then walked towards a hospital owned by Water.

Next he was going to visit a very special patient with both legs broken, just as he had done a few days ago.

That’s right, it’s the locomotive that is one of the Seven of Watt!

Compared with the miserable lives of the Butcher and his companions, Levi's plan was progressing steadily.

On the afternoon of the same day he killed the Wise Sisters, Walter held a grand funeral for the Invisible Man and announced to the public that he would select a person who was qualified in many aspects such as ability and morality to replace the Invisible Man and continue to serve the American people.

As a second-tier superhero that is in great demand recently, it is completely understandable that Levi has shown considerable interest in this.

The first thing he did was to visit the superheroes near New York one by one. After all, among superheroes, circles are very important.

But in fact, Levi had two purposes.

One is to take advantage of the other party's abilities for free. Although the superheroes with some strength are basically sent out, the superheroes who can stay under the eyes of the Seven are almost all third-tier among the third-tier ones.

But the strength of 0.1 tons per person is still considerable when accumulated over time.

This was not the first time he had done this. Previously, he had been based in New Jersey and had been meeting with superheroes from surrounding states such as Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Delaware.

Thanks to his fame, status, and generosity, he has successfully made many friends who love to drink and eat together.

And this is just the beginning. In addition to Washington, D.C., the United States has 50 states and more than a dozen islands of different sizes, all of which are populated by varying numbers of superheroes. He still has a lot to do.

As for the other purpose, it is to let them act as spies.

Levi knew this a long time ago. When Kimiko disappeared for a long time, she was never found, let alone captured.

However, due to the existence of Compound No. 5, Walter is being pressured step by step by the CIA, FDA, and even Congress. The situation is very bad. Homelander will definitely release more beings similar to Kimiko.

Homelander wants them to stir up chaos in America so that it will be easier for these superheroes to come out and save the situation, and at the same time save Walter's unfavorable situation.

Especially after Naqib was accidentally discovered by the Navy SEALs, the Homelanders will definitely speed up their actions.

Even if it were me, I would do the same.

If nothing unexpected happens, Kimiko's younger brother will also come to New York soon.

By then, with these third-tier superheroes acting as spies, he will be able to detect the other party as quickly as possible.

Similarly, he made similar requests to the Blue Eagles and others in New Jersey.

After learning about this, the misled Xingguang actively expressed that she would formally introduce him to the Seven. Levi knew that she really wanted to help him, and she also wanted to take the opportunity to mend their relationship.

But this was Xingguang's kindness after all, so he did not refuse.

He even generously rewarded the other party several times, filling him up like a cream puff.

Although they are not boyfriend and girlfriend now, there are still some things they can do.

Due to Starlight's long-standing good image and the increasingly popular CP between her and Levi, the Seven naturally would not refuse to give her face, which allowed Levi to discover the superpowers of all of them.

Well, Xuanse is an exception. This guy found an excuse to avoid it.

As for the locomotive engine who was seriously injured in bed, Levi showed great enthusiasm. He visited him every day, and today was no exception.

After all, if he wants to gain the other person's superpowers, he can't stop.

It is indeed a bit troublesome, but it is safe and risk-free. Today, Levi decided to try something new!

After entering the hospital, as expected, Levi was surrounded by a large group of fans again.

His visits to the locomotive for several days in a row had already been spread all over the Internet by many people with a curious mind.

Considering that his total number of followers on multiple social media platforms has exceeded eight million, it is very normal that there are people waiting here every day.

Especially when Walter learned about this, he secretly bought some fake fans, and there were even more people here.

Levi's attitude towards these guys who can help him make money is still very friendly.

However, he didn't have the time to sign autographs or take photos for each of them, so he just randomly picked ten lucky people and told them to get out of here and not waste the hospital's resources.

Of course, he didn't actually say it that rudely; he used a more elegant and acceptable way of speaking.

As a Chaoying who had studied performance technology at Godolphin University, this was nothing.

You know what, these brainless fans just bought into this and became even more fanatical about Levi, thinking that he was the one with the highest quality even among the superheroes.

They all clamored for Levi to join the Group of Seven, and they were willing to raise funds to help Levi with publicity.

Just like running for president requires a lot of publicity, running for the 7th must also require publicity, at least that's what they think.

This made Levi quite puzzled, and he felt that they were all crazy.

It's normal to be a fan, but you poor guys who only earn a few hundred dollars a week are raising money to help me, a rich man worth tens of millions? Are you kidding me?

Shaking his head to clear these messy thoughts from his mind, Levi adjusted his facial expression and pushed the door open: "Hi, locomotive, are you feeling better today?"

The locomotive greeted him with a smile: "Levi, you are here. I feel great today. I think in about ten days, I will be able to stand up again!"

In fact, at the beginning, the locomotive was just being polite for the sake of Starlight.

The next day, he began to feel surprised and suspicious, wondering if the other party wanted to get something from here, or even try to do something dirty.

After all, there is only one vacant position among the seven people now, and the opponent may not be able to be successfully selected, but if I am eliminated, the opponent's success rate of standing out will instantly increase by 100%!

But when Levi came to visit him every day for several days in a row, Locomotive's thoughts gradually changed.

Maybe it’s just like Levi said, he really envies his own superpowers and is also his own super die-hard fan!

"Haha, not bad. Has Nathan been here today?"

Even Levi had to admit that compared to the locomotive, his brother Nathan was a rare good man, which was even more rare considering that he was black.

"Well, he has been here. He has to take care of the children. You know, those little ones are a headache."

Speaking of this, the locomotive couldn't help but feel a little dazed. Nathan's current life had actually appeared in his fantasy.

He thought about marrying the devil's claw woman, having children, and growing old together, but reality did not allow him to do so.

Now that the Demon Claw Woman has exposed the secret of Compound No. 5, even though she has been sent abroad by him and his countrymen have no time to deal with this matter for the time being, as long as the Asian woman is not found, neither he nor she will be truly safe.

Even if one day Homelander suddenly remembered this incident and ordered him to kill the Demon Claw Girl himself, he would not be surprised at all. Homelander was such a cruel person.

Levi put the things down casually, and then said a little mysteriously: "Today I have a special gadget that may help you get out of the hospital early."

As he spoke, Levi gathered a little bit of very warm light between his fingers, which gradually spread to his entire body.

With the help of the angle he specially chose, his appearance now was exactly like the priest in the game, with wings of light spread out.

After a period of experimentation, he finally developed a new use for it.

Although it is still far from achieving the effect of healing surgery, combined with the physical enhancement of superheroes, it can greatly increase the speed of cell regeneration and proliferation.

Especially since the locomotive itself has the superpower of enhancing metabolism, it will be particularly obvious in him.

But he was not so kind as to let the other party be discharged early. He would control the efficiency very carefully, allowing the other party to feel the obvious effect at the beginning, and he would pretend to be idle for the rest of the time.

What he really wanted was to copy the locomotive's superpowers through this contact!
The locomotive also noticed the pose that Levi deliberately made. He, who also played games in his spare time, immediately opened his mouth in amazement.

"Oh my God, man, can you really become an angel who can heal and save people?"

"Haha, how about it, do you want to try it?"

"Ha, why not? Whether you succeed or not, Levi, you will always be my best friend, and I will fully support you in becoming one of the Seven!"
