Chapter 89 The Secret of the Deep Sea

After many twists and turns, they arrived at the deepest room. Oswald very obediently chose to leave, allowing Levi and Starlight to explore the unknown area ahead by themselves.

Xingguang sniffed her nose and smelled the unique salty smell of sea water. She couldn't help but wonder, could it be that the Deep Sea rescued some marine animals near New York Harbor and then transported them here?
But this should be a good thing, why did Levi smile so strangely along the way?
Then when Levi smiled and pushed open the door, showing her the deep-sea figure inside, who was holding a marine creature with eight tentacles in his hands, constantly swinging his waist back and forth doing some special exercises, and even humming comfortably with his eyes closed, she finally came to her senses.

Levi must have known what Shen Hai was doing a long time ago, so he laughed so strangely. He is so mean!
Although he was thinking about it, seeing that Shen Hai seemed not to have heard of his and Levi's arrival at all, Xingguang quickly took out his mobile phone and took a picture of the naked Shen Hai and the little octopus, just like Levi did.

Listening to a series of shutter sounds, Deep Sea, who had already wandered away, was instantly awakened.

When he saw two people taking pictures with their phones, he became even more confused: "No, wait, Angel, Starlight, don't take pictures, things are not what you think!"

He waved one hand around and tried to remove the small octopus from between his legs with the other.

It's just that the octopus has special mouthparts, and he is in a special state, so he happens to be locked. Unless he "demolishes" it violently, he can't get it out for a while.

But if he used brute force, he would undoubtedly crush the fragile little octopus directly, which made him so anxious that he was sweating all over his forehead.

When he realized how much trouble this matter would bring him once it was exposed, he began to sweat all over, as if he had been washed by water in the blink of an eye.

Levi smiled and said, "Not what we thought? Then what will happen?"

"Deep Sea, are you trying to say that this little octopus has a fever, so you need to do a nucleic acid test on it?"

As he spoke, Levi did not put away his phone, but continued to take pictures of the things around him.

It’s true, Deep Sea must have spent a lot of money here. It’s like a small oceanarium. In addition to octopuses, there are also dolphins, manta rays, lobsters, crabs, etc.

There are quite a lot of tricks, but not all of them are for "use" or "playing" in the deep sea.

Oh, there are a few of them with a faint smell of blood on their bodies, as if they were injured somewhere. It seems that the deep sea is really rescuing them.

"Ah, yes, yes, that's it!"

Since his poor brain could not find any excuse in a short period of time, Shenhai could only subconsciously nod along with Levi's words.

But Xingguang could see it very clearly, Levi was just teasing the deep sea!

She quickly saved the photos and videos to the cloud disk. "Deep Sea, if these things are uploaded to the Internet, I don't think Mr. Edgar will just drive you to New York Harbor this time, right?"

"I, I, this"

After hesitating for a long time, Shenhai still didn't know what to say. Because the incident happened suddenly, his mind felt blank.

Levi was about to make a few jokes, but at this moment, he suddenly heard two footsteps, one was a little hurried, and the other was almost silent.

He immediately understood that Oswald and the guy behind him must have discovered the abnormality here!

He immediately waved his hand: "Deep Sea, put on your pants first, we will talk about this later."

Levi is actually a little interested in Deep Sea's superpowers.

Not only because it is indeed very practical in certain situations, but also because so far, he has not seen a second similar one!
Codename: Deep Sea

Type: Agile
Special Ability 1: Super Speed ​​(Swimming): Drastically increases swimming speed, can be fully replicated, and is expected to require continuous contact for 1 minute.

Special Ability 2: Extraordinary Amphibian: Possessing both human lungs and aquatic gills, he can breathe on land and underwater at the same time, endure temperatures as low as -150°C, and see in the dark.

The price is that the gills will be forced to be located in the kidneys. Once attacked, they will feel extraordinary pain and general fatigue, which will lead to a sharp drop in combat effectiveness.

Partial replication is possible, with an estimated 125 minutes of continuous exposure required.

Special Ability 3: Deep Sea Stealth: When in water, it can automatically adjust the pressure balance inside and outside the body and can dive up to 1 meters below the sea level.

Partial replication is possible, requiring the subject to already possess extraordinary amphibian or other similar abilities, and estimated continuous contact time of 13 minutes.

Special Ability 4: Aquatic Telepathy: Ability to communicate and converse with aquatic creatures through the mind, and force them to obey orders, launch attacks on targets or conduct search missions, etc.

Partial replication is possible, requiring the subject to already possess paranormal amphibians or telepathy, or other similar abilities, and expected continuous exposure to last 3 minutes.

Unfortunately, similar to Kate’s fantasy space, perhaps Levi’s talent in the relevant area is not strong enough, he can only partially copy it, and he needs to first possess the abilities of an extraordinary amphibious creature.

But to be honest, Levi would never allow himself such an obvious weakness.

However, the two abilities that require a shorter period of time can be copied when an opportunity arises.

Then, Levi wanted to try to conquer this stupid fish in the deep sea.

Due to my appearance, Shen Hai became increasingly marginalized among the Seven. Apart from occasionally going to places like the oceanarium and trying to steal some marine animals and release them, he had no chance to do anything bad, so it was relatively easy to control him.

If you can add some money, the success rate will definitely increase significantly.

Among the seven, Deep Sea is the poorest.

It's not just that his share is the lowest, but also that he doesn't know how to manage his own money at all. It's Walter who is in charge.

But he was rather greedy for money and wanted Walter to help him make money, so Walter helped him trade stocks, and occasionally made a few profits, but most of the time he lost money or lost everything. It was completely understandable, right?
Levi seriously suspected that this was some kind of strategy of Water. As long as Deep Sea remained very poor, he had to work for Water.

Therefore, among the seven people, Shenhai's status is the lowest, and he has no confidence to bargain with Water.

Shenhai hurriedly ran to the back to deal with the little octopus, while Levi and Xingguang walked to the door. There was a bit of a strange smell inside. They didn't expect that Shenhai had only come in a few minutes earlier than them and had already successfully launched.

Just when Xingguang was wondering why Levi let Shenhai go so easily, she saw Oswald coming over again. And this time he was following behind someone humbly. When Xingguang saw the other person's iconic orange skin and big bald head, she suddenly realized.

It turns out that he is Oswald's backer. No wonder he can get so many things and even make Chaoying give him face.

Because he was once one of Water's Seven, and the dead Invisible Man was his descendant!
When they were still some distance away, the green bald man without beard or eyebrows took the initiative to greet them: "Hello, angel, starlight, I am honored to have you here!"

Levi smiled slightly: "Hello, Jupiter Jack, I didn't expect that you didn't leave New York after retirement."

But he ignored the hand that Jupiter Jack extended.

Because he was holding the starlight in his left hand and a mobile phone in his right hand.

Of course, the fundamental reason is that he doesn't want to have any physical contact with the other party.

Jupiter Jack's hobbies are very special. He doesn't like men or women, but he likes women who have transformed into men, and he is the passive one.

As for his superpowers, there are three in total.

First, he can fly at low altitudes to a limited extent, and second, he has a certain mental protection ability.

Finally, by chanting a special spell "Karabo", he can create a special red force field that covers the surface of his body, making him invulnerable to swords and guns.

But even if he used this thing, he could at most resist the attacks of ordinary sniper rifles. It was a skill with a short duration and a long CD.

And every time he used it, he would feel great pain.

What's more crucial is that if anyone blocks his mouth with anything before he utters the word "La" in "Karabo", his trick will fail on the spot and he will have to endure even greater pain as the price.

This is very similar to the spell backlash suffered by mages in games because their spellcasting is interrupted.

Therefore, after seeing this information through the system, Levi had no interest in copying it at all.

In the era when the Seven were first formed, Jupiter Jack might have been considered a relatively powerful superhero, but now, he seems a bit mediocre.

Unless Jupiter Jack is always flying in the sky, Kimiko should be able to kill him relatively easily.

At the same time, Levi also knew that Jupiter Jack did not retire voluntarily.

He played too hard and caused a death, and happened to be surrounded by a large number of reporters who took pictures.

Levi is not sure for the time being whether there were some superheroes who wanted to replace him, such as the Invisible Man, who set a trap for him.

But the direct consequence was that Walter had to pay a huge price to barely cover up the matter.

Up to now, basically only a few people like Maeve know the details.

When playing with Maeve before, during the halftime break, Maeve told Levi about this incident as a joke.

Afterwards, due to various considerations, Jupiter Jack finally "voluntarily" retired.

I didn't expect that after retirement, he would deliberately set up such a place. It seems that he really learned a lesson from what happened back then.

In this case, is it possible that all the superheroes who have played here will have their negative information recorded by him?
Besides, Levi was a little disgusted with Jupiter Jack's face. He looked very much like the idiot in his previous life who claimed that he had no interest in money but tried every means to make money.

Although Levi did not reach out, Jupiter Jack felt somewhat embarrassed and even angry.

But he didn't show any sign of abnormality on the surface, instead he still kept smiling.

He is very self-aware that his glory was only in the past. He has no ability to fight against the two hot new stars of the Seven, and there is no need to do so. He just wants to make money now!

Therefore, Jupiter Jack quickly started talking to Levi very enthusiastically and familiarly. From his conversation, it was obvious that he had a certain level of cultural accomplishment and knowledge, which was completely different from the ordinary third-tier superheroes who only knew how to act recklessly.

Oswald, who was standing next to him, was holding a small box with the lid opened in his rather servile hands. Inside the box were dozens of special medicines.

Even though Xingguang didn't know much about this, she knew that the value of these things was definitely more than 3 yuan.

Noticing her curiosity, Jupiter Jack smiled and said, "This is a small gift from me. I hope you can accept it. I also hope you can keep what happened here a secret."

As he said this, he looked behind Levi and Xingguang.

There, Shen Hai, dressed neatly again, walked out with his head lowered.

There was a little resentment and anger in his eyes when he looked at Levi and Xingguang, but more of it was uneasiness and anxiety.

He didn't know what fate would be waiting for him next. Would he have to spend money? But he really didn't have much money.
"Keep it secret?"

"Even if Xingguang and I are willing to keep it a secret, are you willing to keep it a secret for Shenhai?"

Before he finished speaking, Levi stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers.

The next moment, crackling sounds were heard from many corners around and in the room behind him where Shen Hai had just been working.

Jupiter Jack and Oswald's expressions changed at the same time, and Xingguang also suddenly realized.

Before she mastered her superpowers, she had heard similar sounds countless times at home. It was the sound of small electrical appliances being destroyed!
"You actually installed so many cameras here. Didn't you see everything that Shen Hai just did, as well as everything else that happened before?"
