I'm doing bidirectional science popularization in American comics

After saying that, the man flew away without looking back.

The following day, Water Company began to intensify its efforts to overcome the challenge.

When it comes to public relations and shifting blame, no one is more adept than Walter Reed.

Whether it was the time they shifted the blame to Madeline or the more recent time they shifted the blame to Storm, Vought International not only avoided losses but also gained profits.

They bribed almost all the media outlets and forced Twitter to remove the post that accused Homelander of wrongdoing.

Under their packaging, Depp became an irredeemable villain, while Homelander's destructive behavior was a last resort to protect the safety of the entire city.

While conducting public relations, Vought International was also actively searching for Depp and the superhuman who could blow up mountains.

A superhuman with the power to rival Homelander is exactly what Vought International desperately needs.

Edgar Fried Chicken sat in his office, flipping through a list of all the superhumans created from the creation of Compound I to the present Compound V.

He examined them all, whether they were dead or alive, whether they were under control or had escaped from the experimental base.

However, Edgar couldn't find any trace of the guy who had withstood Homelander's heat rays and mountain-bursting attack for thirty minutes, which left him somewhat bewildered.

"It's impossible that such a powerful superhuman is not recorded in our files! We even have records of the superhuman offspring born to such a superhuman."

Edgar frowned and said, "Could it be... that there really are naturally gifted superhumans in this world who don't involve Compound V?"

What a joke!

Edgar smiled and shook his head, but the idea took root in his mind.

In an apartment building, a burly man with a full beard and a burly black man were sitting in front of a computer.

The burly black man said, "There's nothing we can do. Their PR skills are just too strong! The post I made can't be found anywhere online anymore. Butcher, it seems this approach won't work."

Butcher, with his bushy beard, didn't seem as dejected as breastfeeding.

That's right, this burly black man's name is Mother's Milk, or MM for short.

Butcher said to MM, "This guy might be our real bargaining chip to take down Homelander and Vought. Didn't you notice? This guy who withstood Homelander's heat rays for thirty minutes isn't a Vought employee at all!"

"In any case, this is going to be a good show."

Upon hearing this, MM said, "That is indeed good news, but I have to go. My wife and children are waiting for me at home. If they find out that I'm hanging out with you again, I'll be kicked out of the house."

Meanwhile, Depp, lying in the hotel, was thinking about something else.

The task issued by the system, "Stop, Azu!", has not disappeared.

In other words, I can still complete this task.

Depp estimates that once he perfectly completes this mission, he will gain Homelander's random ability at least once more.

If he could, Depp would prefer super speed!

Chapter 134 Undercover Agent and Plea for Help [4400 words, please subscribe!]

Nighttime, in a secluded laboratory, the beautiful researcher Lily takes a test tube containing liquid from the freezer, her eyes glazed over.

This was when the people of the motherland were on the roof that day.

After the institute's staff found it, they immediately sent it to the research base for safekeeping.

Researcher Lily is a loyal fan of Homelander and often argues with people online for Azu.

She opened the test tube and put in one drop.

After that, she even put the weeds into the pot on the chair.

Only after doing all this did she officially begin her research.

At noon, Depp was enjoying a meal at a well-known local restaurant.

Although the system's rewards are very tempting, Depp still hopes to make time to enjoy life as much as possible.

This was his second day in the world of The Boys, and everything was just beginning.

Depp finished the last piece of meat on his plate, then gulped down his drink, and saw a man with a full beard, wearing a black coat and a black mask, walking towards him.

Depp silently put on the Mirror of Introduction and looked at the guy.

Billy Butcher, the Butcher

Key ability: Leadership skills.

Affection level: Hostile.

It seems this guy still harbors prejudice against all superpowered individuals, showing hostility from the moment they meet.

"Hey, your glasses are really nice."

Butcher, acting as if they were old friends, picked up a small piece of bread left on Depp's plate and started chewing it.

Depp looked up and said, "You're right, Butcher. Would you like me to order you another one? Their stew and bread are really good."

Butcher was shocked to hear this. He hadn't expected Depp to reveal his identity so quickly, especially since he had been wearing a mask today!

"Could this guy be... a Homelander spy?" Butcher was shocked, but didn't show it on his face. "Could it be that their big battle last night was just a show?"

Seeing that Butcher's favorability rating towards him had changed from "hostile" to "hostile," Depp immediately knew that the guy was definitely overthinking things.

"Don't be nervous, Butcher. I'm not with that giant baby Homelander, otherwise he wouldn't have caused so much damage yesterday."

Butcher's eyes were like a hawk's as he said, "So, how did you know my name?"

Depp casually found the previous wanted poster online, pointed to Butcher's photo on it, and said, "Seriously, you should shave."

Butcher: "..."

I'm speechless!

Through the earphones, Butcher heard MM's laughter: "Hahaha, this guy is pretty funny. I think he's right, you should shave."

Butcher then threw the headphones into the trash can and said, "It seems you know us very well. You seem to have been waiting for me to contact you."

Depp ordered two more stewed meat set meals from the waiter and said, "That's right, I not only know a lot about The Boys, but also about Vought International and Homelander and their dirty dealings."

Depp handed Butcher a stew meal and said, “I think you have no reason to refuse my help. I think we can form a friendly alliance now and then go to your base.”

Butcher smiled and said, "Why would I ally with you now? I don't even know if you're Walter's mole or if you pose any threat to us."

"Because you need my help, and I can knead you into a ball whenever I want."

Inside Butcher's safe house, Depp looked at the dirty and dilapidated place with disdain.

"Seriously, couldn't you find a cleaner place to use as a safe house?"

Depp bluntly complained that when he watched the TV series, he felt that the places where these people lived were always filthy, almost like dog kennels.

“That’s irrelevant. Now you can tell me what kind of help you can offer us,” Butcher said impatiently.

Depp looked around but didn't see the rest of the Boys.

Knowing that Depp was coming, Butcher had these people hide for the time being, since they were still unsure which side Depp was on.

Depp said, "Do you know Mr. Edgar?"

“Edgar?” Butcher recalled, “the real manager of the Water Corporation?”

"That's right, guess why Homelander has never dared to disobey him?"

Butcher looked thoughtful upon hearing this and said, "Because... he has a trump card that Homelanders fear?"

“Exactly!” Depp said. “Maybe he has superpowers that can rival Homelander, but more likely, he has all of Homelander’s dirty secrets!”

"For example, using Compound V on terrorists, or killing civilians on more than one plane, etc. The most important thing is that Vought International is different from you. They can make all this dirt go viral online within half an hour!"

"If the Vought Corporation wanted to, they could ruin Homelander's reputation in half an hour, turning him from a national idol into a despised and utterly worthless dog."

Upon hearing Depp's words, Butcher fell silent.

Butcher thought for a moment and said, "You mean, you can get your hands on this dirt? But we can't spread this dirt all over the internet like Vought. Vought's PR team is no pushover; yesterday's video was already taken down from all over the internet."

After saying that, Butcher angrily added, "To hell with free America, it's all a complete sham of freedom!"

"Calm down, buddy. This country of Dior has always been like this, saying one thing in public and another in private. Aren't you used to it yet?"

Depp said, "Yesterday's video was taken down simply because you didn't have enough dirt on us. As long as you can release enough dirt across the internet, even if Vought International does a good job of public relations, many smart citizens will still see through the hypocrisy of Homelander!"

“We don’t need everyone to boycott Homelander. Just dropping his approval rating by five percent will be enough to drive him crazy.”

Depp is right. For a countryman who is always concerned about his reputation and approval rating, even a drop of 1% in his approval rating is enough to drive him crazy, not even 5%.

This hateful yet pitiful guy actually needs everyone's support to give him a sense of security, but he never shows any gratitude for it.

Butcher asked, “Okay, assuming your plan works, how do we get this dirt from Edgar? MM’s technology alone is simply not enough to hack into Vought’s database.”

MM was protesting through her headphones, completely unaware that Butcher had already thrown them away.

Depp took out his phone, casually searched online for the Vought International bounty, showed it to Butcher, and said:

“The guys from Vought International have been looking for me. I think they want me to join The Seven to fill the current vacancy.”

Seeing this, Butcher smiled, a smile he hadn't shown in a long time, and said, "So, you want to become an undercover agent and join the Seven, then seize the opportunity to steal these damaging documents from Edgar's computer?"

“That’s right,” Depp said. “But now, I think the guys hiding around here can come out first.”

After Depp finished speaking, at Butcher's signal, the members of the black-robed squad who had been hiding around came out one by one.

French and Kimiko watched Depp warily, Kimiko herself tense, ready to go into battle at any moment.

Hughie remained vigilant, keeping a close eye on Depp in case he made any sudden attack.

MM, however, didn't care. Since they were already so close, if this guy could scare Homelander away, killing a few weaklings on her side would be a piece of cake for him.

He has seemed perfectly safe all this time, and he appears to be entirely on our side, so there shouldn't be any problems.

MM said, "I have to say, your plan is excellent. As long as you can steal those incriminating documents, I can make them go viral across the internet in five minutes!"

"Of course, it's hard to say how long they can stay online."

Starlight walked up to Depp, and looking at this handsome man whose abilities were even more dazzling than her own, she was momentarily dazed.

"What exactly are your abilities? Super strong defense and control of lightning?" Starlight stared wide-eyed and said, "That seems a lot like Storm's."

Depp touched Starlight's hair and looked at the pure blonde girl.
