“These robbers are really unlucky.”
As he spoke, Levi’s eyes fell on Wanda beside him.
“They didn’t expect to run into an Avenger in Westview.”
“I didn’t expect Westview to be this peaceful either.
Let’s go take a look.”
Wanda noticed the situation, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke.
“Well, teach them a lesson.”
Levi nodded.
He knew that Wanda had made this decision, but it was actually a difficult and complicated one for her.
Before this, the Sokovia incident probably still lingered in Wanda’s heart.
At the time, countless people had condemned Scarlet Witch, believing that the Sokovia incident in Avengers: Age of Ultron had largely been caused by Wanda.
In reality, without Wanda, even greater destruction would have occurred.
Just as people condemned the destruction caused by the Avengers during the war, they forgot that without the Avengers, the Battle of New York would have reduced America to ruins.
…
Soon, the two walked around the corner and into the alley.
In the dark, damp alley, several unsavory young men were pulling at the bags of a mother and daughter.
The mother and daughter were huddled in the corner, desperately clutching their bags.
Judging from their disheveled clothes, it was obvious that this group hadn’t come just for their belongings.
Witnessing this scene, anger flashed through Wanda’s eyes, and her fists clenched tightly.
“Hey, look.
Two more.”
One of them noticed the two people at the entrance of the alley and grinned lecherously.
“John, tonight’s really been a bumper haul.
This trip to Westview wasn’t a waste after all.”
“I want to make up for all five years I lost.”
The big, burly Will twisted his neck when he saw them, like a black bear staring at a new prey.
“Brothers, let’s get moving.
Don’t make Westview’s crime rate look any worse.”
Levi wasn’t nervous in the face of the gangsters.
Instead, he keenly picked up on their conversation and realized they weren’t locals.
Not all the locals would dare to be this arrogant.
These guys simply didn’t take the local thugs seriously.
“Boy, you don’t seem to understand the situation you’re in.”
A smile spread across Will’s rugged face as he whistled.
Boom!
The next second.
At the entrance of the alley, a figure stepped out from behind Levi and Wanda, holding a baseball bat and blocking their way.
Apparently, he had been hiding nearby as a lookout.
“Well, things are a little different now.”
Levi glanced behind him, lightly patted Wanda on the shoulder, and said in a low voice, “Wanda, it’s your turn.”
“…”
Even the normally cold-tempered Wanda was speechless and couldn’t help giving him a look.
This guy was so weak, yet he dared to act this arrogantly.
Wasn’t he afraid of being targeted for revenge later?
At this moment, Will’s narrowed eyes greedily traveled over Wanda’s curvy figure, and he sneered, “Boy, you really shouldn’t have brought your girlfriend here.” The source of this chapter is g.com.
“Sorry, what did you say?”
Feeling his gaze, Wanda’s expression immediately darkened, and a faint reddish glow began to flicker around her fingertips.
“A few unlucky bastards are about to die.”
Levi took a step back, ready to sit back and enjoy the magic show.
“Bitch, I said…”
Will didn’t notice anything wrong at all and continued running his mouth.
But the next second!
Hum!!!
Bright red light suddenly erupted from Wanda’s hands, growing increasingly intense and illuminating the entire dark alley in an instant, reflecting off the terrified faces of the gangsters.
“Fuck, she’s a mutant?!”
Feeling the red glow illuminating his face, Will and the others staggered backward in horror.
The mother and daughter, who had been huddled in the corner, saw hope in their eyes and hurriedly helped each other to their feet.
“Help us!”
“Shut up!”
Will pulled out a gun and prepared to take the mother and daughter hostage.
He knew that ordinary people would never be able to resist a mutant, let alone the woman in front of him, who looked extremely powerful!
“You bastards deserve to die!”
Wanda’s pupils glowed red as she opened her arms, her chest heaving violently with rage.
It seemed that some people truly shouldn’t be saved, and some people remained stubborn even after returning from the Blip, disgracing those who had died during the war…
The words had barely left her mouth.
Boom!!!
With the release of the anger in her heart, a mass of raging red light surged toward the few people in front of her like a tide.
Wherever it passed, the entire alley seemed to tremble.
The red light swept across them, violently knocking several people to the ground.
It quickly spread through their bodies like flames.
“Ah!!!”
“Get out of my head!”
Will fell to the ground, the veins on his forehead bulging as he clutched his head and screamed in agony.
However, the magic contained Wanda’s anger and pain.
Once it eroded the mind, no one could resist it.
It could even make people die within their own nightmares!
The mother and daughter hiding in the corner hurriedly moved away, afraid of being hurt by the gangsters’ frantic struggles.
“Wanda, you’re really strong…”
Behind her.
Levi was also a top-level magician, so he could clearly sense the strength of the Chaos Magic.
No wonder Wanda, after studying the Darkhold, had been able to transcend reality and travel through the multiverse in just a few months.
“Go to hell!”
Just as he was thinking about it, the man who had been acting as the lookout at the entrance of the alley came back to his senses.
He immediately pulled the gun from his waist and aimed it at Wanda.
Just as he was about to pull the trigger, the fist in front of him had already landed.
Boom!
“What happened?”
Wanda heard the commotion, turned her head, and saw the last gangster unconscious on the ground.
“He tried to sneak up on you, but I knocked him out with one punch.”
Levi explained with a smile.
“I learned some kung fu back in China.”
“Does everyone in China know kung fu?” Read this novel at g.com for the best experience.
Wanda was puzzled.
“No.”
Levi didn’t know how to explain it.
The stereotype was difficult to explain away in a single sentence.
Then he walked toward the few people still lying on the ground and groaning in pain.
He opened their cuffs and discovered that they all had gang-related markings on their bodies.
He secretly memorized those markings.
He turned to Wanda.
“Wanda, leave them to the police.”
His purpose was to pull Wanda out of her predicament, and it would be better if she didn’t kill anyone.
With Wanda’s temperament, if she killed someone, she might be affected even more by Chaos Magic, potentially leading to an irreversible situation.
“Mm.”
Wanda nodded.
She had only knocked the few men unconscious and withdrew her magic.
The mother and daughter who had been hiding in the corner hurriedly ran out, and the woman said gratefully, “Thank you, ma’am.
If you hadn’t come along just now, the consequences would have been disastrous.”
“It was nothing.”
Wanda was genuinely grateful and couldn’t help smiling warmly.
“Thank you, big sister.”
The silent little girl behind the woman also poked her head out and thanked Wanda in a childish voice.
“You’re welcome.
Hurry home with your mom.
It isn’t safe outside at night.”
Wanda couldn’t help reaching out and gently pinching the little girl’s cheek.
She clearly adored the child, her eyes filled with affection as she looked at her rosy face.
“See you later.”
After saying that, the woman didn’t dare stay any longer.
She took her daughter and hurried away.
Wanda watched the mother and daughter disappear at the end of the alley, one adult and one child, and it took her a long time to finally look away.
“Wanda, see?
Sometimes, your abilities can bring something good to people, too…”
Levi came over and spoke softly.
He could sense that Wanda’s emotional fluctuations had become much less intense.
Although she hadn’t fully recovered, at least she had calmed down somewhat.
“Mm.”
Wanda remembered the mother and daughter thanking her just moments ago.
A trace of warmth flashed through her eyes as she slowly said, “Actually, very few people ever thanked me, except the Avengers and Vision.
Especially after the Sokovia Accords…”
Then she stopped talking and changed the subject.
“Let’s go back first.
The police will deal with them.”
“Mm.”
Seeing that she didn’t want to continue, Levi didn’t press her.
He knew that if he wanted Wanda to undergo a psychological change, he couldn’t rush her.
He needed to take the long view and proceed slowly.
