I'm doing bidirectional science popularization in American comics

That is, one's genes are not perfect and have irreconcilable defects.

This slows down the healing process, or rather... it accelerates the path to death.

"This is impossible!" the Homelander clone shouted frantically. "Maybe...maybe you just didn't control your strength and angle properly, or you didn't see it clearly!"

Depp shook his head, pointed to his head, and said, "I'm sorry, but I'm very confident in both my head and my hands. To be honest, according to my calculations, you won't live more than a month."

Nonsense, Depp can now easily use the super brain mode, and even continuously use Jarvis's super computing power.

This is also the main reason why he could notice that the Homelander clone's wounds were healing more slowly.

Upon hearing this, the Homelander clone immediately lowered its head and began groping around on the ground.

Soon, he touched the scales of the Weyren that Depp had just thrown away.

He pinched the scales and slashed them hard across his wrist again and again. Before the first scratch had even healed, seven or eight more wounds appeared on his wrist.

This guy is almost going crazy.

The Homelander clone said unwillingly, "No, there must be something wrong! Try swiping a few more times, you're definitely wrong!"

"Is it really okay to deceive yourself like this?" Depp pressed the guy's hand down and said, "If you've lived for a year or even longer, you should be able to clearly recall how different you are now compared to when you were at your strongest."

Upon hearing this, the Homelander clone froze in place, ceasing its frantic self-inflicted wounds.

He closed his eyes and recalled himself from a few years ago. Gradually, streaks of dark red blood tears flowed from his scorched eye sockets.

Yes, three years ago I would never have been scratched by such broken scales.

But now...

"Damn it! Why didn't we notice this?"

Listening to the Homelander clone's remorseful words, Depp said, "Perhaps you've been indulging in killing and pleasure for too long, or perhaps the superpowered beings in that world were just too useless, which gave you the illusion that you were invincible."

Depp now knows why these clones have so many defects.

Even most people did not inherit all of Homelander's superpowers.

Perhaps when these guys were created, their genetic sequences were still complete, allowing them to use all of Homelander's superpowers.

However, as time went on, the defects in their genes began to be exposed, and they gradually became weaker and even lost some of their superpowers.

It has to be said, these are truly a group of insane yet pathetic beasts.

Seeing the Homelander clone, whose mind was almost completely broken, Depp asked, "I'm telling you, are you really willing to be deceived and played like this by Nickelodeon?"

Upon hearing this, the Homelander clone looked up at Depp.

Somehow, Depp saw crackling flames in his dark eye sockets.

"Yes, I want revenge on them. My brothers and I will take revenge on them together..."

Before Depp could even utter the word "K," he clearly noticed that the fire of revenge that had just ignited in the guy's eyes had instantly died out.

What's happening here?

Just as Depp was wondering what was going on, the Homelander clone completely collapsed.

"Damn it! I can't feel any desire for revenge or destruction towards Nickelodeon. I don't know why, I just can't do it!"

After shouting, the man turned his hand into a knife and plunged it into his own heart.

The Homelander clone no longer wanted to live, even though he had only one month left to live.

The moment he realized he couldn't feel any resentment towards Nickelodeon, the company that had mocked him, he was no longer willing to live a life of ignominy.

This time, he unleashed a power he had never possessed before, catching even Depp off guard.

The Homelander clone, having channeled all its energy into a single strike, plunged its hand into its chest, piercing its own heart, and quickly lost all vitality, collapsing limply.

Furthermore, the muscles in his body began to dissolve rapidly due to the side effects of this attack.

Seeing this, Depp was momentarily at a loss for words.

Are you kidding me, bro?!

I'd only managed to turn half of them to the enemy, and you just took your own life?

Besides, even if you don't want to be a traitor, you can come back with me and let Bruce investigate you properly!

Why are you so pessimistic?

unlucky!

However, Depp had already guessed why this guy wouldn't become a traitor.

It is estimated that Nickelodeon used some genetic technology when creating these Homelander clones, rendering them incapable of rebelling against Nickelodeon.

Just as Kryptonians must protect Krypton forever, even if Krypton is about to explode, they cannot abandon Krypton and leave.

But now, Depp knows the biggest weakness of these guys.

That means they are getting weaker every single second!

Although 24 hours may not seem like much, if the war of the Boys' world invasion continues even after the mission ends, then at least it won't get harder and harder.

As for the Homelander clone research material that Bruce wants, he can just grab one on the way back.

After burning the Homelander clone's body to ashes with heat rays, Depp stepped out of the villa and breathed in the fresh morning air.

He then sped off towards Gotham with incredible speed.

Outside Gotham City, the effects of the nuclear explosion are waning.

The Homelander clones, having recovered their senses, looked with lingering fear at the city hidden beneath them in the protective shield.

Can anyone tell us where that nuclear bomb came from?!

"Did any of you see where that nuclear bomb came from?" Homelander clone 7788 asked.

His voice was so loud that it could be heard thousands of meters away.

If an ordinary person were next to him, their brains would definitely be shattered by that shout.

Number 7788 is the commander among these Homelanders, and relatively speaking, his abilities are the most perfectly replicated.

Soon, a Homelander clone, missing an arm, arrived, clutching a reddish-black lump of flesh.

Number 7788 quickly discovered that what the guy was carrying seemed to be the same as his own—a Homelander clone.

However, this guy's appearance is too tragic!

His entire body was burned to a crisp, and dark red blood was still flowing out from the gaps in his carbonized muscles.

His eyes had also been melted by the high temperature, like two jelly balls of red, white and black mixed together, wandering back and forth in their sockets.

His nose was burned to a crisp and turned to ashes at the slightest touch.

As for the mouth, the upper and lower lips were already stuck together.

Only when he was dragged in front of number 7788 did he forcefully tear open his lips, which were already stuck together, and utter a single word in a hoarse, grating voice.

"flower!"

"What?" Homelander clone 7788 asked in confusion.

"A flower! It was a flower, and the explosion was caused by that flower."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Homelander clone, which had been burned beyond recognition, completely lost consciousness and was as dead as could be.

Number 7788 threw him to the ground like a rag doll, then shouted, "It's a flower! Everyone, remember to be careful of a flower, the nuclear explosion just now was caused by a flower!"

Although it was absurd, No. 7788 immediately spread the news.

Soon, the news spread like wildfire, and the entire story of the flower's nuclear explosion was shared among the people of the motherland.

Meanwhile, Depp is back.

On the outskirts of Gotham City, he leaped swiftly from the ground, his target the arrogant Homelander clone in mid-air.

"I can't stand the way you're showing off. Today, Bruce will give you a good lesson!"

Of course, although Depp said that, what he actually saw in the Mirror of Description was that this guy's abilities were the most complete, possessing all of Homelander's abilities without any flaws.

Depp leaped up, grabbed the Homelander clone, and delivered a powerful blow, completely stunning the opponent.

Depp, who was then in mid-air, was immediately attacked by other Homelander clones.

Fortunately, the density of Chinese clones is now much lower than before.

Depp used his ability to control the wind to accelerate his landing.

At the same time, they faced a dense barrage of heat rays behind them.

Depp held the knocked-out Homelander clone in one hand and drew a circle above his head with the other.

The portal appeared immediately, and the heat rays shooting from above immediately entered the portal and then emerged from behind the Homelander clones.

With this strike, Depp took down another Homelander clone.

Homelander clone-1.

Immediately afterwards, Depp made another gesture with the slingshot, and a portal suddenly appeared beneath his feet.

With the help of the wind, Depp immediately slipped into the portal and landed on the outermost edge of the protective shield.

Currently, Depp can open a maximum of two portals at a time.

Even more ambiguous than Doctor Strange!

Oh, right.

As of now, Strange seems to be in the car accident before.

Doctor Strange and the like do not exist yet.

Depp stepped into the portal, and Bruce immediately appeared before him.

"Why didn't you just use that teleportation technique to come in?"

Bruce pointed to the portal that hadn't disappeared yet.

There, just as a Homelander clone popped its head into the portal, Depp immediately shut it down.

Plop, gurgle.

The Homelander clone's head rolled a few times on the ground before rolling into the portal.
