A certain American comic book's secondary profession master

Chapter 276 Don't Be a Riddler

But when Captain Marvel appeared outside the Alliance headquarters with Nick Fury, saying she was taking him to the Kree Empire...

Li Wei was a thousand times unwilling.

After all, this black-haired egg has already caused so much trouble on Earth. If Captain Marvel were to actually unify the Kree Empire, given his nature, wouldn't he turn the world upside down?

"Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on him!" Carroll assured him, seemingly sensing what Levi was thinking.

...Your words are really not convincing.

Li Wei was speechless.

“Victor Lee, this is actually our second meeting!” Nick Fury spoke up when Lee remained silent.

Li Wei raised an eyebrow, neither confirming nor denying.

When S.H.I.E.L.D. and the League clashed, Levi always remained behind the scenes.

Their first official meeting was indeed when S.H.I.E.L.D. was disbanded.

So this is indeed our second meeting.

“If I’m not mistaken, the Tesseract should be in your hands, right?” Nick Fury added.

His words immediately drew a questioning look from Carroll.

After all, Li Weike hadn't told her about this.

That belonged to her teacher, Marwell.

“Seriously speaking, the Tesseract doesn’t actually belong to Mar-Vell. Howard Stark only entrusted it to her for research back then. In fact, it belongs to Asgard.” Levi said, but he did not deny that the Space Stone was in his possession.

Upon hearing this, Carol thought it made sense. From this perspective, she didn't really have much of a position to decide who owned the Cosmic Cube.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have entrusted the Tesseract to Nick Fury for safekeeping back then.

Moreover, compared to Nick Fury, she felt more at ease knowing that the Tesseract was in Levi's hands.

Especially since she knew that Levi still possessed the Power Stone.

As for the Time Stone, Levi had never used it in front of Carol, so she was unaware of it.

“Don’t worry, I don’t mean to argue with you about its ownership. I’m just confirming my guess. After all, its existence is an extremely uncertain threat, and it’s not necessarily a bad thing that it has fallen into the hands of your alliance,” Nick Fury said.

"What do you want to say?" Li Wei asked.

“What I want to tell you is that although we have great differences on the issue of humanity’s future, I will always be a human being, and no matter where I am, I will never use alien power to harm the interests of Earth,” Nick Fury assured Levi.

“You already threatened Earth’s interests by using the Skrulls to infiltrate various countries back then.” Li Wei didn’t believe Nick Fury’s nonsense and immediately scoffed.

“No, if there is any, it only harms the interests of the ruling class of each country!” Nick Fury clearly did not agree with Levi’s words. He had always believed that he was capable of controlling the Skrulls, especially since he had married a Skrull woman.

“Alright, Victor, tell me, what do you want for him to leave Earth with me?” Carol stopped Nick Fury from continuing and asked Levi with a serious expression.

She knew that to get Levi's permission to take Nick Fury away, she would have to make some conditions.

As for forcibly taking her away, Captain Marvel never even considered it.

After all, there are still a large number of Skrulls under Levi's control.

Furthermore, she didn't want to ruin her relationship with Levi because of Nick Fury.

Upon hearing Carroll's words, Levi understood that the other party was truly determined to take Nick Fury away.

He sighed and thought it best to let him go. Letting this guy wreak havoc on the Kree and other alien civilizations wouldn't be bad.

However, just as he was about to give in, he suddenly remembered something.

“There’s something… never mind, it’s not the right time yet!” After a slight hesitation, Li Wei still didn’t speak.

What he actually wanted to talk about was the Eternals.

Just now, he was thinking about whether he should take advantage of Carol's presence to eliminate the Eternals once and for all.

But after thinking about it carefully, I decided to give up.

Dealing with the Eternals isn't actually that difficult, because they aren't a monolithic entity.

The real problem lies with the Eternals, the Celestials.

Li Wei has yet to figure out how to deal with the Celestials, especially Tiamat, the "Mother of Earth."

Therefore, I can only put this idea aside for the time being.

Fortunately, Tiamat is still at least ten years away from being born.

Moreover, the Alliance's efforts to relocate Earth's population could very well delay this process.

Therefore, there's no need to rush into thinking about this issue.

"Can't you stop saying half of what you mean?" Levi suppressed his original idea, but Carol wouldn't have it; she hated riddle-makers the most.

"It's nothing, just take him away!" Li Wei shook his head, not wanting to say anything more; saying anything would only cause more trouble.

If this were mentioned, Captain Marvel might just show up at their door, and that would be a huge problem.

Li Wei is still unsure how effective the Infinity Stones will be against the Celestials, so facing the Eternals too early would be pointless.

“Victor, if you’re so unwilling to talk about it, I’m even more suspicious that there’s something fishy going on!” Carol said to Levi with suspicion.

"...It's really nothing, I was just thinking about our ambiguous relationship with Asgard. But my relationship with Asgard is pretty good now, so it doesn't really matter whether you show up or not." Levi didn't want to talk about the Celestials, so he casually brought up Asgard to take the blame.

"Are you sure you don't need my help?" Carol asked again to confirm.

“Really, it’s not necessary. If it is, I can let you know anytime, right?” Li Wei said.

He's not Nick Fury, who can only carry around a modified, broken pager all day and is too afraid to press the buttons.

If anything truly serious were to happen, Li Wei would absolutely make a single phone call to the Kree Empire.

It's not like we can't communicate.

“That’s true!” Carol nodded in agreement. “Thank you then. Please let me know if anything comes up!”

“Of course! I certainly won’t hesitate to ask if you need it… By the way, Tony has already made the mind protection helmet, so you can officially contact Katia now!” Levi said.

"Really?" Carol was pleasantly surprised upon hearing this.

"So it was you! You were the one who took Sif away back then? Right?" It was at this moment that Nick Fury, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly realized that Sif's disappearance was very strange. He even thought that she had returned to Asgard. Now that he thought about it, she must have been taken away by the Alliance.

He should have thought of it earlier.

However, Li Wei completely ignored him and went to find Tony to get the mind protection helmet, taking Carol with him.
