A certain American comic book's secondary profession master

Chapter 97 The Mission at Kamar-Taj

"As for why you would send a female spy to apply for your assistant position, don't you have any idea? But speaking of which, S.H.I.E.L.D.'s intelligence in this area is a bit outdated!" Levi mocked Tony mercilessly over the phone.

Levi wasn't surprised at all that S.H.I.E.L.D. had sent a beautiful woman to infiltrate Tony's inner circle.

After all, that's exactly what they did in the original timeline.

It's a honey trap, you know.

However, the undercover agent was changed from Natasha, who defected to S.H.I.E.L.D. in that timeline, to Barbara now.

Although Barbara was slightly less attractive than Natasha.

But she has a great figure.

Of course, this figure does not refer to feminine characteristics, but rather to height and leg length.

She's a proper 1.8 meters tall, and her legs are longer than many men's lives.

You should know that Li Wei is only 1.8 meters tall in this life, and only 1.7 meters tall in his previous life.

To be honest, because of the height difference, Li Wei was a little uncomfortable with the new world when he first transmigrated.

As for why S.H.I.E.L.D.'s intelligence is lagging behind... it's because at this time, with Levi's encouragement, Tony had already won over Pepper and "turned over a new leaf."

The honey trap is probably not very effective.

Tsk, why does it seem like S.H.I.E.L.D. is always a step behind in this regard?

Natasha in the original storyline was in this situation, and Barbara is in the same situation now.

"So what do you think? Should I keep her here?" Tony asked Levi for his opinion on the other end of the phone, his mind also flashing through those amazing long legs... Well, thankfully Pepper's aren't bad either—it's just like in the movies, because she's always wearing formal attire, her figure is often overlooked. In fact, Pepper is also close to 1.8 meters tall, about the same height as Tony.

Tony's publicly stated height is 1.85 meters.

But in reality, Li Wei had already secretly compared the heights and found that the other person's height was basically the same—this guy had faked his height!

(Actually, actress Gwyneth Paltrow is 175cm tall, which is taller than Robert Downey Jr., who is only 174cm tall. However, the character is supposed to be 185cm tall, and Downey Jr. always wore height-increasing insoles while filming.)

"You can make your own decisions about this, why ask me?" Li Wei wouldn't care about such things; he wasn't going to let her touch those long legs anyway.

"...Let's not talk about that. By the way, why have you been in Sokovia for so long? Haven't you already sorted out Zemo and the others' identities?" Tony asked, changing the subject.

Unlike the three Black Widows, who were originally undocumented, their status was secured through a rather special means.

The Zemo family has a clean record; it's just that their country is in war.

Therefore, their new identities are obtained through the normal Stark Group overseas talent recruitment process.

Although the process was a little slow, it was impeccable.

But this is clearly not the reason why Levi has not returned to New York.

"..." Li Wei, who was sunbathing on the beach and looking at bikini-clad beauties, fell silent, thinking about how to explain that he had actually left Sokovia and secretly come to the beach for a vacation, and was so happy that he didn't want to leave—well, New York winters are too cold.

"...So you went on vacation by yourself, leaving me to face the siege of the media and politicians alone in New York?" Tony was furious after learning that Levi had gone on vacation alone!

What's wrong with this world?

Am I the boss, or are you the boss?

"Ahem, you can't say that. It's not that I can't help with these things, and besides, there's nothing major going on in the alliance, so I'm just taking a little break," Li Wei said with an awkward laugh.

"Heh, so you're not going to deal with the Whitehall organ issue anymore?" Tony scoffed.

As for Strucker, Tony didn't ask, because the other person was just an ordinary person.

His fate was dealt with simply by killing him; that would be too cruel.

Therefore, after a vote at the pre-war meeting of the alliance, it was decided to keep it closed for the time being.

Once Hydra is completely eradicated in the future, all the heads can be packaged together and sent to their god, the Hive.

Anyway, Li Wei knew that the Black Stone portal to the planet where the Hive was located was in the hands of S.H.I.E.L.D.

See, that's how meticulous their alliance is in doing things!

Even the most wicked Hydra would try to fulfill their lifelong desires.

It's just that Vormir, where Red Skull is located, is too far from Earth; otherwise, Levi would have arranged for these people to meet their former leader.

As for Whitehall, he received special attention because his organ problem was an exception.

"Melina is doing preliminary testing, and I don't understand that either," Li Wei retorted.

Professional tasks should naturally be left to professionals, that makes perfect sense.

"Forget it, it's just the Mediterranean. I go there every year. Do you know Prince Albert of Monaco? He's a good friend of mine... But are you really just on vacation?" Tony showed no envy for Levi's vacation and boasted about his extravagant circle of friends as the world's richest man.

But he soon expressed doubt about Livy's whereabouts.

He and Li Wei had known each other for over a year. Although Li Wei often slacked off, he wasn't the type to go out and play without saying a word.

Just the Mediterranean?

What could possibly be going on over there?

"...Alright, I can't hide it from you anymore. Actually, I'm not in the Mediterranean anymore, but it's not far away. This vacation is just a side trip. I'm actually here to handle some magical matters... Don't forget, as a member of the Alliance, I'm also a member of Kamar-Taj!" Levi replied.

However, he still lied. Kamar-Taj did give him a mission, but the mission location was in Africa.

But his current location is on an island in the North Atlantic, near North Africa and the Mediterranean Sea.

This island has nothing to do with his mission.

However, it has an extremely important impact on the future of the Earth.

This is Fuerteventura Island.

The location where the Eternals first encountered Tiamat and fought their final battle in the movie.

Of course, Li Wei came here simply because it was close to his mission location, so he came to pay his respects.

He doesn't yet have the ability to contact Tiamat, which is located at the Earth's core.

Moreover, this island is indeed a tourist resort paradise.

But now I've seen everything I needed to see.

It's time to leave.

Just as Li Wei was about to leave, he felt a calling.

However, Li Wei only hesitated for a moment before immediately opening a portal and running away, without any intention of responding to the summons.

Ghosts and spirits are never a good thing.

This is the experience Li Wei gained from watching countless horror movies in his past life!
