Chapter 1530 The Origin of Captain America

"Besides, there are so many people with super powers. Who can guarantee that there is not one person who can use his extraordinary abilities to perfectly disguise himself as you?"

Madeline said to Homelander.

"You mean, that embarrassing moment last night that I considered to be a disgrace was actually caused by some cunning guy who used his super powers to impersonate me?"

There was a hint of disbelief in Homelander's voice, but more of it was a desire for relief.

How could he, who is revered by the world as the most powerful superhero, tolerate the stain of his defeat tarnishing his glorious image?
Madeline smiled gently, and that smile was both a comfort to her fellow countrymen and a reflection of her confidence in her own plan.

"That's right, dear. This is not only a protection of your reputation, but also a maintenance of your unshakable position in the hearts of the people. You are the indestructible superhero who always stands on the top of justice, not the 'fake' defeated by Captain America in a dark alley."

Her tone was firm and persuasive, and every word was like a carefully crafted gem, perfectly embedded in the shaky self-esteem of the people of her motherland.

Madeline set the tone for the incident, and Homelander breathed a sigh of relief when he heard her say that.

Hearing this, the people of our country's frown gradually relaxed, as if a warm current flowed into their hearts, dispelling the previous haze.

"But what if Captain America insists on not giving up and comes to question us?"

There was still a hint of worry in his tone. That sudden confrontation lingered in his mind like a nightmare. Captain America's power made him taste the bitterness of failure for the first time.

A hint of coldness flashed across Madeline's eyes, but was immediately replaced by a warm smile.

"They don't have any substantial evidence to prove that the impostor is you. On the contrary, we have irrefutable evidence that you were spending time with enthusiastic fans last night and enjoying your glorious moment. Vought Company is not so easy to be manipulated."

Her tone revealed her confidence in the huge power behind her.

After all, in this world woven by money and power, laws are often just the rules of the game in the hands of the strong.

Homelander's tense body visibly relaxed when he heard that, and he nodded, his eyes flashing with a rekindled fighting spirit.

"I know, Madeline. With you around, I have nothing to fear."

His words were full of trust in Madeleine and his belief that the future was still bright.

At this moment, he seemed to have returned to the omnipotent superhero admired by everyone. Last night's humiliation was just a false alarm.

This is good. He relaxed immediately. He is still the strongest super-powered person and he is not defeated by Captain America.

However, after the people from her homeland left, Madeline's face suddenly turned ugly.

She was going to see Mr. Edgar to "cover up" the big mess that her countrymen had made.

No matter what, prison breaks and attacks on official departments and institutions are too bad and have too great an impact. They may even affect the plans of Vought Company's superheroes to enter the military system!
However, she didn't know that her countrymen still couldn't relax.

He plans to investigate Captain America!
Homelander finds all the information on Captain America hidden deep within Vought Corporation, especially the hero's possible weaknesses.

This obsession, like an undercurrent, surges deep in his seemingly calm heart. The birth of all superhumans in this world originated from the invisible hands of Vought Company and the mysterious Compound No. 5.

Captain America, this symbol in the public eye, Homelander firmly believes that the Vought Corporation must be behind him.

Compound Five, the miraculous source that gave Homelander his extraordinary powers, must also be the key to shaping Captain America's powerful body.

In the perception of the Chinese people, as long as the products are created by Water Company, no matter how secretive, they will definitely leave traces in some corner, recording their birth and growth.

Captain America's strength has long surpassed ordinary people's imagination. How could the top executives of Vought know nothing about such an existence?
Although the public database is empty, it does not mean that Water’s top management knows nothing about it. They must have more and deeper secrets.

Madeline and Edgar, the two people at the helm of Vought Company, it's not that Homelander doesn't want to get answers directly from them, but the risk is too great and it is very likely to expose his own intentions.

However, there is one person, Homelander secretly thinks, who may be the key to unlocking this mystery, Dr. Jonah Wogelbaum, the scientist who witnessed his transformation from an ordinary child to a superhuman being in the experimental base during his childhood.

The name Vogelbaum is almost synonymous with "authority" within the Water Corporation.

His wisdom and expertise allowed Homelander's project to proceed smoothly and made Vought Corporation the leader in the field of superhuman research.

If Captain America was truly the work of the Vought Corporation, then Dr. Wogelbaum, as the company's top scientist, could not possibly be unaware of it.

With this thought in mind, Homelander launched his action.

His figure turned into a flash of lightning, cutting through the sky at a speed of more than Mach 1.5 and rushing away into the distance.

The wind whistled in his ears, as if it was nature's hymn to his strength, but he left it far behind.

For Chinese people, such speed is just a piece of cake, as natural as breathing.

Finally, after a while of flying, the people from the motherland arrived at their destination, a quiet suburb of the city, where Dr. Wogerbaum's retirement home, a villa full of idyllic atmosphere, was hidden.

The villa is surrounded by green trees and the fragrance of flowers, which forms a sharp contrast with the bustling city in the distance, as if they are two completely different worlds.

Dr. Wagbaum was standing on the lawn, concentrating on playing with his carefully bred crossbreed.

Hearing the sound of breaking air in the sky, Vogelbaum raised his head, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then turned into a warm smile.

"It seems that retirement life really suits you."

Homelander slowly landed in front of Wogelbaum and spoke first, breaking the silence.

There was a subtle warmth in his voice, which was his special feeling towards Wogerbaum. After all, Wogerbaum could be said to be the enlightener of his superhuman career.

Dr. Vogelbaum smiled and replied, "Actually, compared to the leisurely days now, I still miss the time in the laboratory more. There, I explored the unknown, had my love for science, and witnessed every moment of miracles."
