American Comics: Starting from the Invincible Young Hero

Chapter 48 Gods Destroy the World to Correct Mistakes (4k7)

"It seems you are indeed anxious."

At the cockpit door, Russell's expressionless face confronted the exasperated fellow countryman. Their eyes seemed to contain boiling lava, emitting a dangerous crimson light. The collision of the two gazes seemed to produce sparks.

"Laser eyes?" Maeve didn't expect that Russell's eyes would also light up with lasers, the same ability as Homelander.

"No one can challenge me!"

Homelander's eyebrows twitched, his expression became even colder, concealing his fleeting surprise, and he spoke angrily in a low voice.

"Who do you think you are?"

You have some inexplicable bio-force field ability that saved a plane that I disdained to save, and you have the same laser eye ability as me, and you dare to offend me, the most powerful superhuman in the world! "

He took a step forward, ready to take action.

"What is he doing? Homelander seems to be terrorizing Infinity!"

"I just saw it. When Homelander killed a terrorist, the heat vision damaged the plane, causing us to fall all the way!"

"My countryman looked as if he was angry out of shame."

"Instead of reflecting on yourself, you're taking your anger out on the Infinite who came to save you! Impossible!"

They couldn't hear the two people's conversation clearly, but they could see Homelander's eyes glowing red as he was about to attack Russell. The passengers in the cabin who were about to get off the plane suddenly became a commotion. They would never allow the hero who had just saved them to be blamed and reprimanded for this.

"What are you going to do, Homelander?"

"Hey, stop it!"

Some people even threw empty milk cartons at the Chinese.

Snapped!
After being hit in the chest, Homelander instinctively shot a fierce look in the direction where the milk carton came from. His eyes were glowing red and fierce, which frightened the man instantly and made his legs weak.

Seeing the fierce look of the Homelander, which was completely different from what they saw on TV, the others were also frightened and stepped back.

"He's not going to attack us too, is he?"

"I...I'm not..."

The furious Homelander reacted, hurriedly extinguished his Cyclops, raised his hands and explained to the passengers with a stiff smile.

"Haha, don't get me wrong, I was just joking with Infinity."

The people of my country are extremely psychologically distorted, moody, cold-blooded and ruthless, but at the same time they can never do without the love and attention of others.

He didn't dare to act in public and show his brutal and cruel side, for fear of losing all his fans.

Snapped!
Homelander reached out to put his arm around Russell's shoulder to prove that they were actually very friendly. Other superhumans might buy it, but Russell ruthlessly pushed his hand away.

"Next time, if you don't dare to take action, don't be like a cowardly dog ​​and show your teeth too early."

He left with a sneer.

This scene confirmed that things were not as the people in our motherland said.

The two were not getting along, and of course the passengers at the cabin door stood by Infinity, who had just saved them, and didn't think it was Infinity's fault. They looked at Homelander with strange eyes and whispered to each other as they walked off the plane.

"It seems that the people of Homeland are not as perfect as they appear in the news."

"Is he jealous of Infinity and stealing his thunder?"

"Infinite people, infinite people!"

The passengers followed Russell out of the cabin, and the entire stadium was filled with thunderous cheers again. Looking at the people who rushed onto the baseball field and holding Russell high, and listening to the discussions, the motherland gritted his teeth. For the first time in his life, he was so angry that he trembled all over, but he dared not vent his anger.

The people of our motherland, who have always been the most popular, have become a foil and even become dim.

There were also young people who wanted to take photos with their fellow countrymen, but were stopped by passengers on the plane, who told them what they had seen with taboo expressions.

The young man immediately cast a suspicious look.

……

"When Infinity landed the out-of-control Boeing 737 steadily in the middle of the baseball field, the whole world seemed to hold its breath at that moment."

—A superhero named Infinity Man prevented the "Second World Trade Center Tragedy."

In the live video footage captured by the news report, a huge passenger plane was swooping down from the sky with black smoke billowing out, but the camera quickly turned to a figure in a white cloak that soared into the sky against the light without hesitation.

Around the world, hosts with different faces and in different languages ​​reported the same exciting news. The world was watching as the Boeing 737 hijacked by terrorists was safely rescued, saving over a hundred lives. One host's voice was even trembling with excitement:
"Rising superhero Infinity just prevented a disaster potentially even worse than the Twin Towers attack!"

Major media outlets frantically rolled out headlines:

The New York Times: "Man of Steel—The Infinite Man Single-Handedly Saves Hundreds!"

The Washington Post: "This time, heroes stepped up — infinite people stopped the tragedy before it happened."

Social media exploded instantly, with #HeroInfinityMan becoming a global trending search, and countless people uploaded blurry pictures they had taken - the moment when Infinity Man lifted the plane, his silhouette flying into the sunset, and the scene of rescued passengers kneeling on the ground and crying.

On the big screen in New York's Times Square, the scene of countless people carrying the hero to the ground was played in a loop. The crowd stopped and looked up, some raised their mobile phones, and some waved their arms and shouted the names of the heroes.

Everything about Infinite Man has become a hot topic around the world.

In Washington, a White House spokesman held an emergency press conference, announcing that the president would prepare to award Infinite Man the "Medal of Freedom" - the highest civilian honor that has never been awarded to a "superhuman" in history.

On the streets of New York, people spontaneously gathered under the Water Building, holding up signs that read "Infinite People, You Are Heroes."

Vendors hawked T-shirts and hats emblazoned with the Infinity logo, and children scribbled black-clad heroes on paper with crayons.

The passengers on the plane became guests of honor on major talk shows, and they talked about that miraculous moment over and over again.

One mother recalled tearfully: "I held my daughter and thought everything was over... Then he came. He was like a ray of light, pulling us out of hell."

The white-haired old woman trembled and said, "This is God's will, Infinite Man... He is different, he is a messenger sent by God."

The young couple's voice choked with sobs: "We should have died on that plane... but he gave us a second life."

There were also baseball stadium spectators who were interviewed. A little boy wearing a baseball cap said that he wanted to be a firefighter when he grew up and be a hero who saves lives like Infinite Man.

At the same time, Homelander's disastrous performance in the hijacking and his poor character have been widely controversial.

There was a TV show where the guests had a heated discussion about this, each holding their own views.

Some people think that Homelander and Maeve dealt with the robbers no matter what, but others think that a large number of superheroes can easily deal with those two or three robbers.

If it were any other superhero, maybe things wouldn't be so bad.

If it weren't for the thermal vision from the motherland, the plane would not have crashed. In fact, there was actually an idle pilot on the plane who was enjoying the group's employee benefits and was flying to Paris for vacation for free.

People were arguing endlessly online, and some videos of Chinese people saving lives in the past were also dug up. They killed people at will, and they always acted without regard for the innocent people around them. Some criminals' crimes did not deserve the death penalty at all.

The once perfect countryman turned into a controversial hero with mixed reviews and discussions in just a few days.

For some reason, the number of "huge fan groups" on the Internet that used to speak out for their motherland and drown out all other voices has shrunk a lot this time.

The saintly image that Watt had created for his countrymen in the past has now faced the most intense counterattack and purge, and it is showing signs of intensifying.

"Sir, Storm is back."

In the penthouse, Edgar came in to report, and Russell, in a good mood, shifted his attention away from the rapidly jumping numbers.

"She is in the company right now and just came to me and said she wants to join the Super Seven."

"Oh?" Russell was a little surprised.

At this point in time?

"How's the Homelander?"

"After returning to the building, he lost his temper and smashed a lot of things. After seeing the online public opinion, he came to me and asked why Walter's public relations team hadn't made any efforts. Was it your instructions?"

Edgar said.

"I insisted that it was all his fault and that too many people saw him destroy the plane.

He just leaked Compound No. 5 not long ago. The company trained him and doesn’t owe him anything. He has no right to ask the company to do anything for him…” Homelander then returned to the room, sometimes depressed, sometimes angry, pacing around the room with a gloomy face.

Like a lion in a circus who is abused and anxious and wants to jump out of the cage immediately, but is hesitant, afraid that he will be beaten if he tries to break free.

"Sir, Homelander has become increasingly unstable over the past two days and seems to be on the verge of losing control."

Edgar felt the need to remind.

Russell simply nodded; Homelander's reaction wasn't beyond his expectations.

At this time, Storm appeared, probably with the idea of ​​"taking advantage of the situation" and wanted to take the opportunity to get close to Homelander and once again promote her theory of Aryan superhumans ruling the world.

dong dong!

"Find a place and bring Storm to see me later." Russell knocked on the table, and there was a coldness in his words.

Storm is considered the strongest superhuman below Homelander and Soldier Boy. He is not sure whether his mind control ability can always control her.

Like Kate Dunlap brainwashed Jin Tong many times, but in the end Jin Tong still remembered everything.

Moreover, Russell did not intend to spend too much effort to control this crazy woman who wanted to form an army of superhumans to massacre all mankind. It would be better to just let her disappear from the world.

He's just a clown who wants to speculate, and it can be solved with a flip of the hand. Russell is more concerned about another issue.

"How's the formation of the temporary metahuman team going?"

"Sir, we've screened death row inmates from about a dozen prisons across the United States these past few days and given them a few minutes of medication. Most of them have average abilities, but there are two who might be able to be used."

Edgar said.

He really wanted to accomplish this as soon as possible for the supreme master in his heart, but reality cannot be changed by personal will.

Two people are still far from a whole team.

Considering the need to settle the contract between the state, federal government and prisons, and Walter's need to allocate personnel to ensure that he is still able to control the other party, etc., screening more than a dozen prisons in a few days is already very fast.

"Two? Do they have the ability to fly?"

"One has it, and the other can barely fly, but not very fast."

Russell tapped the table with his five fingers, his eyes moved slightly, and after thinking for a while he decided to wait and see.

"Find a place and have the two prisoners ready. You take Storm to meet them. I want to see their strength."

"Yes, sir."

It doesn't matter that there are only two people for now, he still has a few "special backup players" to use.

If the abilities of these two men were even marginally satisfactory, Russell would be prepared to try his hand at the Homelanders.

Living with an arrogant, moody giant baby, it is difficult not to become enemies with him and be disgusted by him unless you flatter him.

Even though he had only met his countrymen twice, Russell couldn't help but feel deeply disgusted with them.

He would not allow anyone in his own company who was powerful enough to intimidate him to continue to exist.

……

"We love you, Infinite Man. You are a hero to the younger generation!"

"The Homelander is an executioner. Many people who have not committed a death penalty have died at his hands, losing their chance at a second life."

"It's been rumored online that our countrymen are actually arrogant and indifferent to life. In the process of dealing with criminals, they have accidentally killed many innocent people..."

"Recently, the White House announced that it would award the Transhuman Infinite the Medal of Freedom, an unprecedented honor for his contributions. This is an honor that even people in the homeland have never received."

Inside the Water Building, in the luxurious apartment where Homelander lived, Homelander was naked, slumped on the sofa, sprawled out, watching TV.

The room was dimly lit, with only news clips playing continuously on the screen.

The voices praising the Infinite Man and questioning and condemning him continued to ring out.

The expression on the motherland's face changed several times as the light on the TV screen flickered, as if he was schizophrenic.

Sometimes he feels wronged like a child who has been treated unfairly, sometimes he feels angry like a lion whose territory has been invaded, sometimes he feels sad and surrounded by loneliness, and sometimes he looks ferocious like a murderer who wants to go on a killing spree.

Anyone who sees this horrific scene will definitely feel a chill down their spine.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open.

"The most powerful superhuman in the world would not leave his house for two or three days in a row. It's hard to imagine what could hold him back."

A woman in combat uniform and with a sharp hairstyle casually pushed the door open, as if she was entering her own backyard, with her hands behind her back, as if no one was around. She first glanced around the room where most of the furniture was smashed.

Seeing her countrymen naked like babies, she showed no shyness at all, just like a mature woman seeing the body of a child.

"I heard that some people like to wear nothing when they're stressed, like a baby returning to the womb, which can relieve anxiety."

"Who are you!" When someone broke into the room and commented on him for no apparent reason, the Homelander's eyes instantly lit up red.

"Don't be nervous, Homelander, I'm here to help you!"

Storm smiled.

"Help me? I don't need any help." Homelander gave a final warning, filled with murderous intent, each word clearly expressed. "No matter who you are, you have three seconds to get out of here, or you'll be carried out like a pile of charcoal."

"Of course, of course. Homelander is the most powerful superhero in the world. No difficulty can stop you."

The Storm Girl smiled sweetly with a maternal tenderness and a bit of woman's charm. She lay down and caressed her countryman's chest like comforting a grumpy child.

“But even God makes mistakes and goes astray without knowing it.”

Her voice was so soft, like a mother singing a lullaby to comfort her child, that it was not offensive.

When the woman came closer, the native man realized that the woman in front of him looked like a woman who had given birth to a child, with a unique charm of maturity. She was the kind of woman he liked to be obsessed with the most. Even Madeline did not have the charm of this woman in her every move.

Compared to her, Madeline looked as young and immature as a young girl who had just experienced sex.

But at that moment he was in a gloomy and manic mood. Although he did not shoot the laser immediately, he did not show a good expression either.

"That's ridiculous! God never makes mistakes!"

The tone of the Homelander is not like that of a believer arguing for God, but rather like that of an arrogant person who claims to be a god, an existence of the same level as God, and this existence cannot be questioned.

The Storm Girl smiled gently, with even more joy in her eyes, and gently guided and comforted him.

"No, my countryman, even God makes mistakes."

Although Stormy refuted him, Homelander's expression unconsciously improved slightly after hearing the statement that even God makes mistakes.

“When has God ever made a mistake and gone astray without knowing it?”

But he still questioned it.

This is completely contrary to people's impression of a wise, great, omniscient and omnipotent God.

"Not only does God make mistakes, but he makes mistakes so great that he regrets them."

A dangerous madness flashed in Storm Girl's eyes, like a devil that drives people crazy, and her voice was full of temptation in Homelander's ears.

“But fortunately, he realized his mistake and immediately corrected it, using a great flood to cleanse the world that he disliked.

He only left behind the righteous people whom he chose and who believed in him devoutly, allowing mankind to reproduce and thrive again, correcting his mistakes and finally shaping the world into what he wanted.

"You're saying that God made a mistake in creating humans, and that he destroyed the world to correct that mistake. There seems to be nothing wrong with what you said. This is indeed written in the Bible."

Homelander frowned, as if he had grasped something.

He had never made a 'mistake' as great as creating humans, nor did he have that ability.

But as he seemed to be gradually losing all the love, he always felt that God's way of correcting his mistakes seemed to bring him some inspiration.
