A certain American comic book's secondary profession master

Chapter 111 Christmas Gift
Time flew by and it was Christmas at the end of 2004.

Whether it's Li Wei, who is a transmigrator who was originally from the East, or the original body of this world, neither of them pays much attention to Christmas, nor are they religious.

It seems that my father in this life was the same.

You can hardly see anyone on Christmas Day.

The alliance was only established last year, with few members and not very close relationships.

So when Li Wei first transmigrated last year, he spent Christmas alone.

But this year is different.

The number of members in the league has increased so much, and most of them are still "lone wolves," especially the children, who almost completely treat the league as their home.

As a result, the festive atmosphere immediately became strong.

Melina, along with Jessica and a group of other girls, began decorating the Alliance headquarters for various holidays well in advance.

Even the usually taciturn Frank somehow managed to cut down a huge Christmas tree and lead the children in decorating it.

In such a strong atmosphere, even if Li Wei was not interested in the festival, he couldn't help but blend in.

Even Tony and Pepper, as well as the seriously ill Dr. Mercer, joined Bullseye to share the Christmas dinner with everyone.

After more than half a year of careful treatment, Dr. Mercer has recovered quite well and is in good spirits.

If I'm lucky, I might even have another surgery next year and recover completely.

And at the Christmas dinner.

Yelena was the most active.

Skye, who was standing next to her, asked her if she liked Christmas.

Yelena's statement, "I've never celebrated Christmas," silenced most of the people at the table.

Skye and Colleen, two girls close to her age, immediately felt a thousand sympathies for the little girl.

After all, even Skye, who didn't have a very happy childhood, still enjoyed the warmth of Christmas to some extent.

However, what they didn't know was that this was exactly Yelena's goal.

Although Yelena really liked the atmosphere of the League, her "new home".

However, those who stand out from the Red House are not easily moved by a single festival.

She was just using the opportunity to gain her girlfriends' sympathy.

However, Melina wasn't going to tolerate her.

“Although you didn’t have a good childhood, you can’t just say you’ve never celebrated Christmas, can you? At least during those years in Ohio, I didn’t skimp on Christmas for you guys,” Melina exposed Yelena’s lie without hesitation.

"Really? I forgot, after all, I was only five years old then." Yelena looked innocent.

Clearly, this clever little girl had already thought of her words.

“It seems that she has even forgotten how her sister punished her back then,” Natasha said, squinting her eyes.

"Sister? What sister? Everyone knows I'm an orphan, I don't have a sister at all," Yelena swallowed hard, stubbornly insisting.

Faced with the girl's shamelessness, Natasha glanced at her but ultimately said nothing more.

Today is Christmas, it's not a good day to hit children.

After the holiday, she will let Yelena know just how terrifying her sister really is.

Yelena naturally knew what Natasha's threatening gaze meant.

But she's grown up now and isn't afraid of this washed-up old woman.

Li Wei silently lit a candle in his heart for Yelena's "reckless" attitude.

Before today, her provocative behavior was not a big problem.

Anyway, at worst, I can fight with Natasha, my "older sister".

In situations where it's not a life-or-death struggle, Yelena, who also received Red House training from a young age, is no less skilled than Natasha. Moreover, at almost 16, she is basically fully developed and her physical fitness is no weaker than Natasha's.

But after today... after the dinner, it's the gift exchange that many Christmas people love most.

Not only did the adults prepare gifts for the children, but they also prepared gifts for each other.

Even the children prepared gifts for everyone with Melina's help.

Although it's just some simple handmade chocolate gingerbread and other little trinkets.

However, it was still very popular and well-received.

Li Wei also received many gifts.

Tony gave him a custom-made Audi.

To be precise, Tony gave an Audi to every member of the league except for Mindy, who was still an infant, and Colleen, who was still very young.

Skye and Yelena are almost 16 and old enough to take their driving tests, so Tony drove them along too.

This guy really likes four rings, so in this world, Stark Industries is still a shareholder of Volkswagen Group.

Therefore, this car was a custom-made alliance model that Tony had Audi specially commission.

It has many unique features designed by him added to it.

This car can be described as a customized product jointly developed by the "Alliance" and "Audi".

In other words, the existence of the "alliance" is not currently public.

Otherwise, if Audi had taken the opportunity to launch this co-branded model, it would probably have sold out instantly.

The second gift was from Frank.

It was a T-shirt, a black T-shirt with a skull printed on it.

It is also the symbol of the Punisher in the original timeline.

Hmm, Li Wei said that if he remembered correctly, this T-shirt was a gift from Frank's son.

What does Frank mean by giving this to himself now?
Melina's gift was quite normal: a men's belt.

Natasha gave him a tie.

Jessica gave him a bottle of men's cologne.

Clearly, these women had discussed it beforehand.

Bullseye Dax gifted him a Yankees jersey.

It seems this kid still has a strong passion for baseball.

Unfortunately, ever since he killed his own coach, he has been completely expelled from the baseball leagues of North America.

It remains to be seen whether he will have the opportunity to return to the arena once his identity as a superhero is revealed.

However, it wouldn't be fair to the others if he went back to playing baseball at that time.

This question relates to the gifts Li Wei gave to everyone.

Because besides Tony and Frank, there was also Dr. Mercer, who was recovering from a serious illness, and several children who were not yet adults.

The gifts Li Wei gave were all very consistent.

That is, one bottle of "Titan's Elixir" for each person.

When everyone first saw the bottle of potion, they were puzzled, because although they knew that such a potion existed, they had never seen it before.

However, after seeing the card with instructions and precautions that Li Wei had prepared and placed together with the potion, he realized that this seemingly fantastical potion was the legendary "Super Soldier Potion".

I was immediately shocked.

This gift was something they had never expected before.

Bronsky, in particular, was so excited that his face turned completely red.

He had been thinking about how to prove his loyalty to Li Wei in order to obtain the potion, but it just appeared in front of him so easily.

I'll be staying at the hospital with my husband these next few days, so updates will be a bit irregular. It'll be fine in a couple of days.
