Chapter 1573: A-Zu who shot himself in the foot
Homelander straightened his clothes, trying to smooth out the corners that were slightly wrinkled due to long-term detention, and his signature confident smile quickly appeared on his face, a smile as bright as the sun.
He spoke to the camera in a loud and infectious voice: "Everyone, this trial is just a test for me. I will always be the countryman who protects you. I will take this experience as an opportunity to more firmly safeguard peace and fight against all evil forces."
The flash lights kept flashing, illuminating his face that was pretending to be calm. He talked incessantly about his grand plans for the future, trying to completely erase the previous heinous act of attacking the Black Chapter from the public's memory and reshape himself into the perfect heroic image in the public's mind.
However, as soon as Homelander returned to Vought Company, his long-suppressed anger instantly erupted.
He rushed straight to Edgar's office and pushed the door open with a loud bang.
Edgar was sitting behind his desk, looking at documents calmly, as if he had already anticipated the arrival of his countrymen.
"Why didn't you rescue me right away?"
Homelander's eyes widened, his hands clenched into fists, his body trembling slightly with anger, and he asked loudly.
His voice echoed in the office, full of menace.
Edgar was not in a hurry and still maintained his usual calmness.
He did not answer his motherland's question immediately, but gently turned the computer screen to show the video and information on it to his motherland.
"Everything you want to know is here."
He said calmly. Homelander approached the screen suspiciously, his eyes quickly scanning the words and images.
As he read deeper, his expression gradually became solemn.
It turns out that the Black Chapter Department has an internal court, which is similar in nature to the military's military court. It is specifically responsible for managing super-power crimes, and ordinary courts have no jurisdiction over its cases.
This also explains why he was detained for so long and why Vought Corporation was unable to do anything about it.
Homelander bit his lip, and the anger in his heart subsided a little. He finally realized that this matter was far more complicated than he had imagined.
"The reason you were able to come out this time was also because of the superhuman terrorists. The Super Seven are no match for them. We need you, Homelander."
Edgar saw that Homelander had finished reading the information and spoke slowly.
There was a hint of unquestionableness in his tone, as if Homelander was the only hope to save Vought and the entire situation.
"Don't worry, I will take care of them."
The Homelander straightened his back and spoke confidently.
His previous arrangements suddenly emerged in his mind. He did not expect that these preparations would inadvertently help him get out of trouble. He could not help but secretly admire his own "amazing wisdom" in his heart.
However, he didn't know that a greater crisis was quietly approaching him, and the so-called "wisdom" would only make him suffer the consequences in the end.
"Where's Madeleine?"
Homelander suddenly remembered that he thought Madeline was away from the company temporarily because she was giving birth.
"She was kidnapped by terrorists."
Edgar's voice remained calm, as if he was describing something quite ordinary.
"what?"
Homelander's eyes widened, instantly filled with anger and anxiety, and his eye sockets were slightly red.
Madeline is the most important person to him in this complex world.
Now that he heard that Madeleine was kidnapped by terrorists, he felt as if his heart was stabbed. "She might have made a deal with the terrorists and leaked the information about Compound No. 5. Then they came after her, and then the attack on Sage Center happened. I suspect they got the information about Compound No. 5 from Madeleine."
Edgar continued speaking slowly.
The Homelander regretted it deeply at this moment. He clutched his hair tightly with both hands and a painful expression appeared on his face.
He never imagined that what he had planned would eventually put Madeline in such a dangerous situation and make him take the blame.
"Where are those terrorists?"
He gritted his teeth and asked word by word, with a fierce murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
Vought's intelligence network quickly started to operate and soon locked down the hiding place of the terrorist Diablo.
Of course, this is largely because Diablo does not hide his whereabouts at all.
For Diablo, only by exposing himself openly can he attract the people of his homeland to come to him, which is part of the carefully planned conspiracy.
"This time, you have to get rid of them. We asked you to come out for this purpose. If you don't perform well, we will also be under pressure."
Edgar once again emphasized the seriousness of the matter to Homelander. He stared at Homelander closely, trying to judge his determination from his expression.
"Don't worry, I'm the strongest."
Homelander patted his chest and assured him that at this moment he had only one thought in his mind, which was to rescue Madeline as soon as possible.
His eyes revealed eagerness and determination, as if he had already seen himself catching all the terrorists in one fell swoop and saving the beauty like a hero.
"The Ministry of Defense, the military, and Congress all think that the Black Chapter Department has too much power and want to limit its absolute management and judicial power over people with superpowers. Whether Vought Company can compete with the Black Chapter Department depends on you."
Edgar continued, not missing any opportunity to put pressure on Homelander.
"I?"
When the Chinese heard this, their originally confident expressions instantly became a little overwhelmed.
The powerful figures of Captain America and the Minister of the Black Chapter Department involuntarily emerged in his mind. It seemed that he did not have a complete chance of winning against them.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy in his heart, but soon, he pretended to be calm and tried to cover up his inner fear with self-confidence. After all, in his cognition, he would always be the omnipotent motherland.
Homelander led the team, and Starlight from the Super Seven was very excited to see Homelander because he was her idol.
It’s just that Homelander didn’t recognize Starlight. After all, when he was imprisoned, Starlight hadn’t joined the Super Seven yet.
Originally, Homelander would definitely target Starlight, the troublemaker. After all, Deep Sea was reported by her and sent to prison, and the Invisible Man was arrested by the Black Chapter Department. However, Homelander is now worried about Madeline and is too lazy to say anything to Starlight.
“That group of people is amazing.”
Queen Maeve said to Homelander.
“I’m better.”
Homelander looked at Queen Maeve and said seriously.
He was confident that he was absolutely invincible except for Captain America and the White Emperor.
