Extraordinary North America: Where are the magical partners?
Chapter 183 "Oi! We have a common enemy!"
Chapter 183 "Oi! We have a common enemy!"
late at night.
The base of Water Company was shrouded in a tense and depressing atmosphere. Deep roars echoed in the base, causing panic among the people.
"Find him out!"
"Find this guy named Rango right now! Now!!!"
"Damn you bastards! How dare you attack the Super Seven while I'm away!"
"."
All around, the staff who were originally busy cleaning up the scene, after hearing the roar of the man wearing a star-spangled cloak and claiming to be the embodiment of justice, all fell silent, lowered their heads and accelerated their work, trying to escape from this gunpowder-filled place as soon as possible.
"He didn't do this just because of your absence."
A cold voice suddenly came from the window, interrupting the noise in the room.
It turned out that Queen Maeve, who was thrown out of the window by Rango but miraculously survived, was now staring at the night outside the window. She said in a heavy tone: "I can deeply feel the emotions in his eyes when he defeated the six of us one by one."
She turned around and faced the pretentious man, her tone revealing unquestionable seriousness: "Disappointed, he is very disappointed. Disappointed that we failed to let him display his true strength!"
"What do you mean?" the man draped in the American flag asked with a frown.
"Do you understand?" Queen Maeve said sharply, "He is coming for you, a native of his country! Starlight is just an excuse, his real target is you!"
Hearing this, Homelander frowned, anger spread rapidly on his face, and finally turned into a sneer: "Arrogant guy, I will find him, and then in front of all the media, I will personally take off his head that dared to challenge my authority!"
Seeing this, Queen Maeve sneered, her mockery evident in her words: "Don't be too confident. I have fought with him before. His defense, strength and speed are not inferior to yours, and he also has the ability to fly. I even suspect that he was secretly cultivated by a certain force with the intention of replacing you."
“Shut the f*ck up!!!”
After hearing this, Homelander's face turned cold and he said in a deep voice: "No one can replace me!"
"hehe."
Seeing that the other party was really angry, Queen Maeve smiled sarcastically, said no more, turned around and prepared to leave.
As a member of the Super Seven, although she and Homelander were once boyfriend and girlfriend, she had long been dissatisfied with this giant baby-like Homelander. She longed to see someone who could truly defeat him, or even replace him.
"What about long-range attacks?"
Behind him, Homelander continued to ask, "Does he also have Cyclops?!"
However, Queen Maeve ignored him and walked straight towards the exit without looking back. After seeing this, the homelander, who was already full of anger, became even angrier. He raised his foot to block Maeve, but at this moment, other people's voices interrupted and answered his doubts.
Madeline held a tablet computer in her hand, her expression serious. "According to the data we have collected so far, we have not found any signs of Rango using any long-range attack capabilities."
"So that means there is nothing?" Homelander pulled up a disdainful smile. For him, the two abilities he was most proud of were flying and laser eyes.
His super defense Queen Maeve also has it, and super speed Locomotive also has it.
What distinguishes him from ordinary super-powered people like them is flying and Cyclops. Therefore, after knowing that the other party can also fly, he is eager to know whether that guy has long-range attack capabilities.
However, before he could be happy for long, Madeline continued, "Just because he didn't see it doesn't mean he can't do it! Think about it, Homelander. He defeated the other six members of the Super Seven with just his fists and feet. He didn't even have the chance to use long-range attacks. And he could see through the invisible man's disguise at a glance, which means his perception ability is not inferior to yours. As for super vision and super hearing, they haven't been observed yet."
As she spoke, she tapped on the tablet, and the surveillance video of Rango's fierce battle with the Seven Team popped up on the screen, and shocking scenes were presented to the people of Homeland.
"This kind of suppressive power is no weaker than yours! What you need to pay special attention to is the flying kitten and the teddy bear beside him. These two life forms seem to be very special at the moment. Do you know what this means?"
Homelander stared at the almost naked figure of Rango on the screen, who defeated Maeve and the others one by one with amazing speed and strength. His brows were furrowed. "Does this mean he has other superpowers?"
Madeline nodded heavily, her tone full of worry. "Don't contact him for the time being. We will send a specialist to keep an eye on him. The company's current strategy towards him is to make friends with him. Don't offend this Rango easily."
"What did you say?!"
Upon hearing this, Homelander was furious, and there was even a faint flash of fiery red light in his eyes. He could not accept such an arrangement.
Seeing this, Madeline quickly comforted him softly, "Calm down, countryman. If you really fight against Rango, with your fighting style, the scene will definitely be very big, and all the citizens and media will see it. If you win, it's okay, but what if..."
"You think I'm going to lose?!"
Homelander's voice was low and dangerous. Over the past few decades, he had experienced countless doubts and malice, but no one had ever questioned his strength. Now the president of the company actually thought that he would lose to that naked guy!
Looking at the countryman in front of her whose eyes were as red as magma, Madeline's heart tightened and she said hurriedly: "This is not only my order, but also Mr. Edgar's order. If you have any objections, you can go to the 82nd floor and talk to him in person!"
As soon as these words came out, the people of Homeland, who were on the verge of exploding, fell silent instantly.
The image of a well-mannered old black man wearing glasses emerged in his mind. The red in his eyes slowly faded away, and finally he turned and left without saying a word, his back revealing an indescribable complex emotion.
Madeline secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this. She looked at her countryman's back, and her eyes couldn't help but turn to the man on the computer screen who was equally powerful and terrifying.
Compared to the increasingly uncontrollable Homelander, both she and Mr. Edgar would rather introduce a super-powered person who is as powerful as Homelander to join Vought Corporation, and Rango is the best choice.
"President"
The HR director, Ashley, who had been following behind her, reported in a heavy tone, "The casualties have been counted."
"Although Xuanse was rescued in time by Queen Maeve when he fell and survived, he was seriously injured and had multiple fractures. He will not be able to perform tasks in the short term; the lamplighter unfortunately suffered a fatal penetrating wound and serious damage to his internal organs. He has been confirmed dead on the spot; the invisible man was only slightly injured because of his special physique and because he was not the main target of attack; the locomotive had a comminuted fracture of the ankle. If the recovery effect is not ideal, he may never be able to return to his peak speed; Shenhai... He not only suffered a serious mental blow, but also suffered unspeakable physical damage. His * function may be permanently damaged." Madeline heard the words and closed her eyes tiredly, with mixed feelings in her heart.
Except for Queen Maeve who had super defense and the invisible man who was not targeted, the Super Seven lost four core members overnight.
This is not just the loss of a hero, but also the destruction of the company's years of investment and expectations, and the economic losses are incalculable.
"The lamplighter's case should be treated as retirement, and we should announce to the public that he has chosen to live a secluded life." She said decisively.
"As for the others, find someone of similar build to replace Xuan Se who is recovering from his injuries. No one knows what he looks like under the mask anyway."
"As for Locomotive, let's first see how well he recovers. There will be a speed contest between him and a superpower named Shockwave soon. If he loses, then it will be a natural progression for us to recruit Shockwave into the Seven."
"And that damn deep sea!"
When this name was mentioned, Madeline's emotions got a little out of control. It was because of this guy that such a big mess was caused, and she also lost 10 million US dollars because of it.
The most infuriating thing was that Teddy Bear just deleted the video in front of her and didn’t even bother to tell her if they had a backup.
The deep sea is a time bomb right now
But considering that this guy was the first old man to join the Seven, Madeline took a few deep breaths and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry about him. It doesn't matter if Shi Geng can't get up. As long as his superpower to communicate with marine life is still there, it's fine!"
Ashley wrote it down hastily, then asked hesitantly, "Should we keep Xingguang under surveillance? She and Rango have a special relationship. We..."
"No!"
Madeline interrupted sternly and said in a serious tone: "Treat her with a normal attitude and give her some benefits. She is the only bond between us and Rango at the moment, so we must maintain it well."
"understood."
After Ashley left, Madeline stood alone at the window, gazing at the city in the night, repeatedly chewing the name "Rango" in her heart.
The strength displayed by the other party tonight was shocking, but what puzzled her most was that almost all the super-powered babies cultivated by the company using drugs were on record.
Where the hell did this guy named Rango come from? !
Night shrouds the street corner
At this time, Rango, who was being talked about by countless senior executives of Water Company, was wantonly releasing himself, peeing next to the lamppost as if no one was around, and humming a song that did not exist in this world from time to time.
Teddy was standing aside, equally casual, holding the bottle in one hand and untying his belt with the other, drinking and sprinkling.
Since coming to this world, both he and Rango seemed to have found a kind of pleasure of release and no longer cared about the so-called image quality issues.
As for Yumi, the little guy turned his head away from the two of them with a look of disgust, his face full of displeasure, as if he was very dissatisfied with his master's transformation.
After shaking a few times, Rango patted Teddy's head affectionately and rubbed his fingers on his fur.
Then, he took out a cigarette box from his pocket, and when he found it was empty, he looked up and shouted towards a shadow in the distance: "Oi! Got any cigarettes, man? You've been following me for so long, why don't you at least show some appreciation?"
After a moment of silence, a burly man wearing a worn leather jacket and with an unshaven beard slowly walked out of the shadows. There was a hint of wariness in his eyes, but he still took out a cigarette box from his pocket and handed it over.
"Fuck. I let you watch a good show in the park, and you treat me to a Camel?" Rango smiled speechlessly, took out a cigarette and lit it.
In the smoke, he looked at the man in front of him and asked directly, "Borrow money?"
"Huh?!"
Butcher was stunned. Why did the guy opposite him think that he was following him to borrow money?
"It's easy if it's not a loan." Rango asked casually, "Hurry up and tell me what you want from me."
"I"
Thinking of the scene he just saw through the telescope, Butcher narrowed his eyes slightly, gritted his teeth and said directly: "I saw the conflict between you and the Super Seven, and you killed the lamplighter and broke the leg of the sports car leader!"
"Oh, you said this."
Rango exhaled a puff of smoke and shrugged, "They saw that I was from another place and wanted to bully me. I was forced to fight back."
"."
Butcher was silent for a long time. He said bluntly, "I monitor the area near the Vought Building almost every day and have seen many superheroes, but you are the only one I have seen who can compete with Homelander. You killed a member of the Seven. Although Vought Corporation won't say it, they will definitely not let you go in the future. And for some reasons, I also have a deep hatred for these so-called superheroes. In other words,..."
At this point, he paused and looked directly into Rango's eyes: "We have a common enemy."
"Yeah."
Rango nodded, biting the cigarette butt for a long time without saying anything.
Butcher's heart was instantly in his throat. According to his personality, it was impossible for him to show up in front of Rango so early. But the problem was that the other party had discovered him, and he didn't want to miss a superpower who was strong enough to compete with Homelander.
After a long time, just when Butcher was about to give up hope, the man opposite him finally spoke: "Is there any fun place where we can sit down and chat?"
