"Your father has a high status in the Nova Corps."
"He is a super awesome figure who shocked the galaxy."
"Do you know Thanos? Oh, I don't know the purple-skinned monster. It doesn't matter if you don't know, as long as you know that this guy is very powerful. He is probably the most powerful supervillain in the universe. He was defeated by your father. "
"Your father's status and influence in the Nova Corps is like Captain Rogers' status and influence in the United States Army."
Sam listened to Li Jie talking about his father's past and felt a little unreal. Although his childhood bedtime stories were all told by his father. And most of them were stories about how heroic he was back then.
But what he said inevitably felt a little like bragging to Sam. Especially when Sam slowly grew up and began to not believe those stories. It wasn't until his father disappeared and he inherited his father's helmet that he slowly began to believe what his father said.
But this still didn't change some of his old views of his father. After all, when Sam clearly understood his father, he was more often than not just a school worker who often got drunk in school.
He was responsible for repairing the school's toilets and broken light bulbs. With a meager salary of two thousand dollars a month, he looked like a very failed middle-aged man.
How could Sam associate this decadent middle-aged man with the big hero that Li Jie talked about?
So it was not surprising that Sam raised some questions. Just like now. After listening to Li Jie's story, he couldn't help but ask, "Is what you said true?"
"Of course it's true!" Li Jie confirmed: "I'm telling the truth. In fact, I heard this news from your father's comrades. (Star-Lord and others are also considered comrades, although they have not really fought side by side. But they all belong to the same legion, don't they?) "
"They have come to Earth." Li Jie's words seemed to make Sam misunderstand something.
Because Sam immediately asked, "Are they here for my father? Or did my father ask them to come to me? "
"Eh? Not exactly. "Li Jie replied after thinking about it. Because Star-Lord's main purpose here is to tell the earth about the upcoming Zetari crisis. Then, he would return to his hometown to visit his family.
As for finding Richard? Alright, this was just an accident that was discovered in passing. However, when he looked at Sam, his eyes were full of expectation and sparkling with Xingxing. Li Jie felt that this was not the time to tell the truth. Otherwise, the heroic image of a father that Sam had just established would be shattered.
Therefore, Li Jie could only say, "In fact, not many people in the Nova Corps knew about your father's retreat to Earth. Although the Nova Corps has erected a monument to your father and has tried to find him. But I haven't heard of his whereabouts. "
"This can be considered an accident. But after hearing about your news, they were still very excited (Li Jie: Probably). Therefore, there might be a fourth option in front of you right now, "Li Jie said seriously.
"You have inherited the power of your father, Nova. This is his legacy. And now he has left you another legacy. Would you like to join the Nova Corps, accept their training, and become a member of the Nova Corps? "In fact, Li Jie still wants Sam to join.
Sam was a teenager born and raised on Earth. If he joins the Nova Corps, then in a way, the earth would have a spokesperson in the Nova Corps.
It is still unreliable to rely on Star-Lord alone, because when he heard Star-Lord and his teammates talking to each other these days, Li Jie learned a fact. That is, the good things that the Guardian of the Galaxy has done are as big as the trouble they have caused.
So this is the main reason why Star-Lord has been a temporary worker for so many years and has not been able to get a formal establishment.
It is not enough to rely on a temporary worker in the Nova Corps. It is still best to have talents who can break into the interior and even the top. Sam still has some talent, as long as he is not obsessed with the beauty of the two girls every day.
With some talent, coupled with his willingness to work hard and the shadow left by Richard in the Nova Corps, Sam's future path will not be very difficult.
Of course, Li Jie doesn't have the final say in this matter. Whether he wants to join the Nova Corps or not is Sam's personal consideration. No one can make a choice for him. Li Jie just told him about it. How to choose in the end is his business.
And Sam's first consideration for this matter is: "Is there a salary for joining the Nova Corps?"
Huh? Very good, very realistic child. Li Jie nodded. "Yes." Even temporary workers like the Guardian of the Galaxy have a basic salary and there are additional bonuses for completing tasks. As a formal worker, the Nova members naturally have a salary.
"From the basic logistics soldier (No Nova), Nova soldier (Triangular Star), Decurion (Quadrangular Star), Centurion (Octagonal Star), they have various salary standards. Basically, those who join should have money. "
Hearing Li Jie say this, Sam muttered in a low voice, "Where did that damn drunkard (Richard) spend all the money he earned all these years?!"
Li Jie heard Sam's whisper and couldn't help but say, "Maybe it's because the universal currency used by the Nova Corps can't be circulated on Earth. Maybe your father left you a large deposit in a bank in the Galaxy? "
Sam was excited. "Like the gold coins that James Potter left for Harry Potter in Gringotts?"
"Well, probably." Li Jie is not very sure.
"But in that case, how do I exchange this money for dollars?" Sam is troubled about the money he hasn't gotten yet.
"Uh. If you need it, I will find a way to help you exchange it. "Li Jie offered to help this child who desperately wants to support his family.
Anyway, the universal currency of the Galaxy should be able to buy a lot of things. Although it can't be circulated on Earth, it should be usable in other civilizations in the Galaxy. The Illuminati should not lose money by exchanging it.
"Okay! If that's the case, I think I should join the Nova Corps! "Sam is not only doing it for the money, but also to see the place where his father was glorious.
However, Li Jie's next words made his mood plummet. "This matter still needs your mother's approval. Without her approval, you can't leave Earth. And I won't agree to the Guardians of the Galaxy under the Nova Corps taking you away. "
"Of course, if your mother agrees, then I will support you to go to the Nova Corps. And I will provide you with all kinds of help and convenience. "Li Jie's words pulled Sam's mood back up again.
Sam asked curiously, "What kind of help?"
Li Jie gestured with his fingers and said, "It's all kinds of small gifts that can help you build a good relationship with your classmates in the Nova Reserve School. For example, delicious food, fun (games, movies, TV, etc.), all kinds of things that can make people think you're cool and interesting. (Like Lego bricks). "
"Don't refuse my kindness, because you're not going to represent yourself, but Earth. So we will provide you with all kinds of help. I also hope that you can spread these things to more of your classmates, "Li Jie said with a smile. His tone was kind like an elder caring for the younger generation.
