Begin from the original form of torture and become immortal

Chapter 1543 Convincing the Homelanders

"Not only did you attack the Black Chapter, you also attacked the White Emperor. What exactly do you want to do?"

Edgar questioned.

In fact, it was one of the main reasons he abandoned his native country.

The people of our motherland have begun to become disobedient, act arbitrarily and out of control.

It just so happens that Edgar has a trump card in his hand, the son of his motherland!

As long as we train him well, he may become a second citizen of our motherland.

"But if you are willing to follow my advice and turn yourself in and confess your guilt, the company will find an opportunity to clear your name in the future and let you stand in the sun again. But if you refuse, the company will have to give up on you, because in this world, there has already appeared someone who can rival you or even surpass you."

Edgar's words were like a sharp knife, piercing the hearts of the people of his motherland with precision.

He mentioned the fact that made everyone uneasy - Homelander was no longer the only strong one.

With the rise of Supernova Corporation and the powerful power they hold, Homelander's position has become precarious.

"Who do you think you are? Do you think the company can't do without you?"

Edgar's words were filled with irony and helplessness. "You are wrong, my countryman. In this world full of uncertainties, no one is indispensable. What the company needs is a person with superpowers who can bring benefits to the company and protect the company from risks, not a time bomb that only creates trouble and threatens the company's safety."

Edgar's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting the hearts of the people of his country hard.

He felt unprecedented loneliness and helplessness.

He understood that every word Edgar said was true, but he couldn't accept this reality.

He, a native of his homeland, was once the guardian of this city and a hero in the eyes of countless people. But now he is being abandoned by his own company and forgotten by the times.

"You will regret it!"

There was a hint of despair and madness in Homelander's voice, "I'll let you know that losing me is the biggest mistake Vought Company has made!"

However, Edgar just gave him a cold look, then turned and left the meeting room.

He knew that this dialogue with his fellow countrymen had come to an end.

Next, he will face an even more difficult choice - how to protect Compound No. 5 while calming the anger of his homeland and maintaining the stability and future of the company.

Edgar found Madeline.

"Now is the time to demonstrate your influence, Madeline. To communicate with him, to comfort him in your own way, to guide him to give for you, for all of us."

Edgar said.

Madeline felt mixed emotions when she heard this.

The hero of Homelander, who possesses extraordinary power but is lonely inside, is an object of use to her. However, in this world woven by interests, personal feelings often seem insignificant.

Once the weather vane of the company's top management changes, even she will be just a leaf drifting with the tide.

"I see, Edgar."

Madeline understood her role and what her choice meant. Although she was very reluctant, she decided to follow the order, because in this stage full of calculations and sacrifices, only by staying calm and rational can one survive.

On the other side, Homelander was in a mess. His room, which should have been his safe haven, was now like a battlefield, with the floor in disarray, and every broken item silently telling of his inner struggle and despair.

He, the superhero in the eyes of the world, is now like a lost child, helplessly venting his inner pressure and fear.

"John..."

Madeline's voice sounded outside the door, gentle and slightly hesitant, as if she was tentatively stepping into this chaotic territory.

The motherland's body suddenly stiffened, and all movements stopped instantly, like a naughty child who was caught on the spot, his heart filled with anxiety and uneasiness.

He turned around slowly, and his usually resolute face was now filled with fatigue and fragility, with complex emotions flashing in his eyes.

"Madeleine..."

He said hoarsely.

Madeline gently pushed open the door and walked into the room. Her eyes swept across the mess on the floor, but she did not show any surprise or disgust, only deep sympathy and understanding.

She walked slowly towards her countryman, each step seemed so firm and gentle.

"I've heard your story, John. What do you think now?"

Madeline's voice was gentle, and in this way she tried to open the closed hearts of her people.

Homelander lowered his head, clenched his hands into fists, and his voice trembled a little: "I... I don't know. I feel unprecedented confusion and fear. I don't want to go to jail. To me, that is more terrible than death. Moreover, if the Black Chapter Department does not compromise, I will really be locked up by them for life and lose my freedom forever..."

At this point, his eyes couldn't help but become moist. It was a feeling of loneliness that came from being abandoned by the world, and a deep fear of the unknown future.

In front of Madeline, he let down all his defenses and showed his truest and most vulnerable side.

Although Homelander possesses powers beyond those of ordinary people, his heart is like that of a child who will never grow up. He longs to be understood, cared for, and even for the long-lost maternal love.

And she is the one who can give him these, and because of this, she can "control" and "guide" this powerful hero to a certain extent.

She slowly stepped forward and gently embraced her motherland in her arms.

At that moment, Homelander's body trembled slightly, as if confirming the authenticity of all this.

He felt Madeline's warmth and comfort, which was his long-lost support and his only solace in this cold world.

"It's okay, John." Madeline's voice sounded softly in his ears, "We will face this together. You are not alone, you still have me, and we. We will find a solution to get you out of this predicament and regain your freedom and glory."

Homelander finally couldn't hold back his tears in Madeline's arms.

Tears were the release of his inner emotions and also his hope for the future. He hugged Madeleine tightly, as if he wanted to put all his anxiety and fear into this warm embrace.

"Thank you, Madeline. I really don't know what I would be like without you. I will listen to you."

The motherland cried and shouted.

"Of course, John. Moreover, we have a plan and a strategy. We will use all our resources to get the best result for you."

Madeline breathed a sigh of relief, having successfully convinced Homelander.
