The Savior of American Comics? I'm the Subspace Evil God!

Chapter 282 Chapter 480 Chapter 481 The Strategy of the Homelanders (Part )

“Ah… Boom!!!”

The [Soldier Boy] let out a painful scream, and a burst of extremely powerful energy suddenly erupted from his chest, directly hitting the building in front of him...

……

at the same time.

【Water Group】.

"No, Homelander, you don't really want those two damn street heroes to join our [Super Seven], do you? Don't you understand the consequences of doing so?"

Inside the office, [Queen Maeve] looked at Homelander in disbelief and couldn't help but ask loudly:

"I think you know better than anyone that their superpowers don't come from [Compound No. 5]...

This means that the methods Vought Corporation used to control its superheroes are useless to these two."

"If they are undercover agents sent by some organization or media, then after seeing the true operation mode of the [Super Seven], it will deal a fatal blow to the entire [Vote Group]!!"

Although what Queen Maeve said was right, such harsh words still frightened the new CEO Ashley Barrett and made her tremble all over.

It's worth mentioning that after Homelander used Stan Edgar's adopted daughter, Victoria Newman, the "Headbang Girl" who is a member of Congress and the director of the Bureau of Metahuman Affairs, to oust him from office, he had his former henchman take over his position and take the position of CEO.

After all, A-Zu is not stupid enough to push himself to the forefront, but everyone in the [Water Group] from top to bottom knows that the person who really has the power to give orders... is still Homelander.

And Ashley Barrett was just a puppet pushed to the front of the stage to pretend.

However, what Ashley Barrett didn't know was that ever since Queen Maeve witnessed Homelander's use of mysterious powers to defeat the seven vampire demons during the Seven Cities Vampire Crisis, she had longed to obtain the same power and voluntarily submitted to Homelander... To be more precise, she became a follower of Homelander's Cult of Slaanesh—"I Am the Only One in Heaven and Earth"!
So even though her words were very harsh, the fellow sitting in the boss chair opposite her didn't care at all, and there was not even a sign of anger on his face.

What's more, he knew very well that what Queen Maeve had just said was the truth.

But knowing is one thing, and doing it is another!
Although Spider-Woman initially rejected Homelander's invitation, he was not angry about it. Instead, he admired her straightforwardness and the courage to reject him.

Because whether within the [Vought Group] or in the [Super Seven], except for [Queen Maeve] who occasionally dared to express different opinions to Homelander, no one else even had the courage to resist his orders.

At first, the Chinese man enjoyed the feeling of being the only one in charge, but gradually he became bored and annoyed.

After all, what he really needs is a group of subordinates with independent ideas, not a group of useless lickspittles who obey his orders...

Especially when he was almost banished to the "cold palace" by former CEO Stan Edgar some time ago, if the "Wise Man" had not appeared in time to help him find a way out of the predicament, he would probably have been put on ice by the "Water Group" now.

It was from that time that the talents of the motherland truly realized that they must find a few members of the "Super Seven Team" who dared to "contradict" themselves at critical moments, and who had the ability to think independently and help them make the right decisions.

And the extremely popular "Spider-Woman" just happened to meet his expectations.

As for what the other party said on the phone, about the lizard man who must join with her... well, Homelander would just treat it as a condition attached to inviting Spider-Woman to join.

Thinking of this, the countryman waved his hand at the slightly agitated Queen Maeve and said with a firm look:

"Don't get so excited. You can rest assured about this. I'm always very good at judging people... Spider-Woman would never do that!"

Bullshit!
[Queen Maeve] rolled her eyes immediately, but didn't say anything else.

Ever since she learned from her homelander that the mysterious power capable of killing "demons" came from a god called Slaanesh, her focus has gradually shifted from the Super Seven and the Vought Group to how to make herself stronger!

Because only by becoming stronger can she have the chance to defeat the bastard Homelander and get the life she wants.

Now that her countryman refused to listen and insisted on introducing those two unstable street heroes, she simply ignored him.

Just let him do whatever he wants, sooner or later he will suffer the consequences!

By then, [Queen Maeve] will definitely be the first to jump out and add insult to injury!
"By the way, Ashley, please contact Spider-Woman later to confirm the time for her to officially join the Super Seven, and then arrange an event for me and her to appear in front of the public..."

After a moment's thought, Homelander added, "Also, gather intelligence diligently. It would be best if, after Spider-Woman joins us, we could find a supernatural event like the Subspace Corporation's fight against the demonic invasion in front of the Empire State Building a few weeks ago, or a sensational event like the one that saved the president a week ago. Then, the two of us could team up to solve it... I guarantee we'd be able to detonate the entire network!"

After enjoying the huge bonus of traffic and widespread attention brought by "Seven Cities Vampire Crisis", the people of our country have long lost interest in general violent incidents and criminal matters.

If you're going to do something big, do it, or don't do it at all!

A week ago, because the homelander went to another state to attend an important live award ceremony, he missed the grand battle in front of the Empire State Building.

This made him feel upset and regretful for a while, but even if he was in [New York] at that time, the [Department of Defense] and General Ross would probably never approve his request for action.

"Okay sir, I'll do it right away..."

Ashley Barrett silently wrote down everything Homelander had told her to do in her notebook. Just as she was about to leave the office to issue an order, her cell phone suddenly rang.

"Hey, it's me...what did you say?!"

Ashley Barrett's voice suddenly rose several degrees, which immediately attracted some dissatisfied glances from her fellow countrymen.

"What happened? Why are you so flustered? Don't forget that you are the CEO now... I'm warning you, you'd better not do anything stupid that will make me regret giving this order, otherwise you know what the consequences will be!!" "I... I understand, sir."

Recalling the former colleague who had been shot in the head in front of her, Ashley Barrett subconsciously trembled, then suppressed the fear in her heart and reported:
"But I think you must take a look at this emergency now..."

As she spoke, she had already picked up the remote control, turned on the TV, and tuned to the column program of the Daily Bugle.

Before Homelander could ask, John Jameson's rough voice came from the TV.

"Dear viewers, just now, a massive explosion occurred unexpectedly in Upper Manhattan. So far, people familiar with the matter have confirmed that at least 19 people died on the spot, and a building was reduced to ruins. Rescue and excavation operations are still ongoing..."

"Also, according to the New York Police Department and the Bureau of Superhuman Affairs, the explosion was caused by an unknown superhuman thug, but the authorities have not released any further information about this superhuman thug..."

While John Jameson was giving the commentary, a surveillance video that was never very high definition was played on TV.

The screen showed a burly but sloppy middle-aged man who looked like a homeless person. He first bent down with a look of pain on his face for some unknown reason, but the next second an extremely violent energy shock was released from his chest. The screen was suddenly covered by a white light, and then it stopped abruptly.

But I don’t know if the authorities don’t want to reveal too much information to the public right now, so although this surveillance footage captured the other person’s figure and the course of the incident, the frontal image of the male superpower user did not appear in the footage.

After a brief pause, John Jameson began to officially reveal the information.

"However, according to another insider who wishes to remain anonymous, the superhuman thug who caused the explosion is most likely Soldier Boy, the former captain of the Blood Debt Superpower Squad, who was previously announced by the Vought Corporation to be permanently buried beneath the reactor due to the collapse of the nuclear facility during the 1984 Ohio nuclear leak incident..."

Next, John Jameson gave a detailed introduction to the past of "Soldier Boy", but Homelander had already fallen into a daze caused by some complex emotions and did not hear what he said next.

It wasn't until Queen Maeve repeated the same words loudly in his ears over and over again that he regained consciousness.

"Fu*k? Homelander, did you hear what I was saying?"

"Excuse me, what?"

Homelander belatedly asked, and Queen Maeve stared at him with a strange expression, repeating what she had just said without getting tired of it.

"I say... we need to deal with this emergency immediately. After all, Soldier Boy was once the most famous superpowered person under the Vought Corporation. Although we don't know how he came back to life, if we don't resolve this huge hidden danger in time, I'm afraid the Vought Corporation's stock price will plummet tomorrow morning!"

However, Homelander seemed to have ignored him and was stunned for several seconds before responding, "Oh, yes, of course, we will definitely take care of it, so..."

Homelander took a deep breath, then, as if regaining his spirit, said to Ashley Barrett with a firm expression:

"Book all the Sunday shows immediately and tell people they don't need to worry about this... uh, I mean they have nothing to worry about, yes, absolutely, everything is under control."

What else can Ashley Barrett say?
Of course, he flattered me as always, "Sir, this is a very smart idea. It's a great idea."

Good for your mother!
Queen Maeve could no longer bear to watch this idiotic interaction between the master and the servant. She immediately stood up from the sofa and said speechlessly:

"My countryman, are you listening to me carefully? We have no time to waste now. We must hurry and get rid of this troublesome guy!!"

Who would have thought that this time, the Homelander seemed to be enraged by her attitude. He grabbed her chin and approached her fiercely, warning:

"Watch your fucking tone. Don't think you can act so presumptuous in front of me just because you joined my sect... You have no idea what that guy means!"

"I apologize."

Queen Maeve suddenly came to her senses, forced a fake smile on her face, and explained earnestly:

"I just... I mean... don't you think that finding him and taking care of this problem would be the perfect time for you and Spider-Woman to team up for the first time?"

"Ok?"

The Homelander was stunned at first, then his expression gradually relaxed, and he said hesitantly: "You mean..."

"Yes."

Before Homelander could finish, Queen Maeve interrupted, "After the Daily Bugle revealed Soldier Boy's identity, it won't be long before it causes widespread concern and panic. You and Spider-Woman... no, we can find Soldier Boy before he's targeted by the Bureau of Parahuman Affairs or some other organization... Kill him, and you'll once again be hailed as the savior of New York!"

There is no doubt that Queen Maeve's words hit the soft spot of the people of her country.

The reason why I was stunned just now was, on the one hand, because I unexpectedly met the "father of my genes" whom I had never met before, and I felt an inexplicable sense of belonging in my heart.

He accidentally discovered this news when he was looking through the top-secret information of the Vought Group about himself after he ousted Stan Edgar.

This had a great impact on the people of our country.

After all, since he was a child, he always thought that he was a "lonely man" with both parents dead.

Didn't expect that he was deliberately created by [Water Group] using [Soldier Boy's] genetic material?

If this happened in the past, after the people of Homeland learned the news, they would definitely launch an inhumane massacre within the [Water Group]!

Because he couldn't stand such deception and the truth about his "birth"!!
However, for the people of his motherland who now have higher aspirations, this news only made them surprised...
