American Comics: Starting from the Invincible Young Hero

Chapter 34 Let me go over, I know Infinity.

Hearing about this personnel change.

The locomotive gasped, and the deep sea couldn't believe it.

Maeve's eyebrows raised slightly, and Xingguang looked towards the conference room in shock.

Homelander stood in the shadows, his face terribly gloomy. He clenched his fists, as if on the verge of exploding, trying his best to suppress his anger.

Everyone quickly and carefully averted their gaze, not daring to look any longer, for fear that one glance would cause them to explode, provoking the volcanic wrath of their homeland and making them the unfortunate punching bags.

They looked at another figure, a young man who was unrealistically young.

Could it be that just now in the conference room, Homelander was directly removed from his position as captain because he contradicted Edgar's decision and had opinions about Infinity?
Maeve and the others were filled with surprise and endless speculation.

[Conquest Points +13]

[Conquest Points +78]...

"Everyone, next up are my teammates."

Russell folded his arms, walked out of the meeting room, said goodbye to everyone and left.

Xingguang, Shenhai and others hurriedly nodded and greeted him, fearing that they would be a second late.

After watching the two people who had put pressure on him leave, Homelander slightly unclenched his fists. He recalled the scene in the conference room just now - Edgar's voice was as cold as ice:
"Who do you think you are? A baby concocted in a laboratory. Compound No. 5 created you. The secret recipe is more important than you, the company is more important than you, and you—" The indifferent tone stated a fact before continuing, "You are not irreplaceable!"

Edgar ordered him to "learn to clean up his own mess like a grown-up" - to personally deal with the mess caused by the leak of Compound No. 5, and he might even have to wipe out the evidence himself, including those "partners" who knew too much.

As for those superhumans that have already been born, they must all be brought back!
The most humiliating thing was that he was temporarily stripped of his captain title within the company, and had to pretend that everything was normal to the outside world.

Homelander's teeth were chattering, but in the end, he said nothing.

He was still afraid of the unfathomable Walter.

……

At noon, on the eve of the press conference in front of the Water Building.

The Super Seven had just introduced Starlight and had added a new member a few days earlier. The media rushed in like sharks smelling blood, hoping to capture first-hand news about the new member, Infinity.

"Another new member. Is the Super Seven going to become the Super Eight?"

"I heard that the Invisible Man seems to have been killed, but the news hasn't been announced yet. This Infinite Man should be filling the gap left by the Transparent Man."

"But the intensity of Walter's promotion doesn't seem like that of a newcomer filling in the gap, does it?"

The firecracker girl squeezed into the front row of the media area and listened to the conversation between the two reporters. She was holding a knife and a promotional poster was displayed on the screen of her mobile phone. It was the poster that Walter issued to warm up and announce the new members.

She had never seen that cold and majestic battle suit before, but she was very familiar with that face.

The firecracker girl bit her lips lightly, her brows twisted together in a knot, not daring to believe it.

"Infinity Man is out!"

At this moment, reporters in the front row of the media area crowded to take pictures first. The crowd was surging like a lake, and flash lights were flashing wildly one after another, almost blinding people's eyes.

As a passerby, the firecracker girl was quickly pushed to the back, but she still saw the figure of the young man coming out of the Water Building.

He was wearing a brand new uniform, shining brightly under the spotlight, and waved and smiled casually at the camera.

"Everyone, welcome the new member of the Super Seven." Vought Vice President Madeline, who only appears on important occasions, raised her voice and announced with the microphone, "Infinite Man!"

That young and handsome face instantly evoked the memories of the Firecracker Girl.

It’s really...it’s really him.

Seeing that the real person of Wuxianren was her student boyfriend, she opened her eyes wide, unable to believe it, and even suspected that this was an illusion caused by her dream of revenge on Xingguang.

“Is that Madeline, Vought’s vice president?
I've photographed her at several charity galas before, and she was a powerful, dignified, and confident woman. But now, why is she announcing the show like a host, with a smile on her face? She seems... a bit like she's trying to curry favor with that Infinite Man?"

"That's impossible! What CEO would try to curry favor with his employees?" "I think maybe Starlight joined the Super Seven through an audition, but this Infinity guy was parachuted in, right? I can't find any information about him online."

"Hiss, now that you put it that way..."

Several reporters nearby were taking photos and speculating about the mysterious background of this infinite man.

A light of joy appeared in the eyes of the firecracker girl standing by.

if it is real……

The infinite person on the stage waved his hands twice and left, as if he just showed up for a moment, leaving the media confused.

In the past, the Water superhero would sob excitedly on the stage and express his gratitude to Water in words. He wanted to stay in front of the flash lights and get the maximum exposure through his debut.

Why does this superhero seem to not care about exposure at all?

"Make way, sorry, make way..."

Seeing that Russell was about to leave, the Firecracker Girl quickly squeezed through the crowd and chased after Russell who was about to return to the building.

"Infinite people, infinite people!~"

She tried to rush forward, bypassing the media, but was immediately stopped by the security guards at the building entrance.

"Madam, please stop."

"Let me through. I know Infinity."

"Then what do you think the name of Infinite Man is?" Three or four security guards held each other's arms with expressionless faces and formed a human wall, blocking her like the security guards who stop crazy female fans at a star's concert.

"He...his name is...uh..."

Seeing Russell approaching the building, the firecracker girl became anxious and instinctively opened her mouth, but her brain suddenly froze.

To be honest, she really didn't know the name of the man she had spent a night with.

“Can’t tell?

Madam, please step back and cooperate with us."

Several security guards were no strangers to this. Some even pretended to be friends, some even claimed to be the superhero's secret girlfriend or even his wife.

"Infinite people, infinite people!" The firecracker girl shouted even louder.

"Firecracker girl?" A voice coming from the side caught Russell's attention. Russell, who was about to enter the building, stopped when he saw the firecracker girl being stopped by the security personnel, and raised his eyebrows in slight surprise.

"Let her come over."

Really know?
The security personnel looked at each other and stepped aside.

"I've already told you, I know Infinite Man." The Firecracker Girl snorted proudly and threw down a sentence.

……

“I almost didn’t recognize it.

It's only been a few days, how come you've lost so much weight?"

In the top-floor apartment of the Water Building, Russell handed a glass of water to the Firecracker Girl who sat down and kept looking at the luxurious decoration. He was surprised not only to see the Firecracker Girl suddenly, but also to see her changes.

The firecracker girl sitting on the sofa at this time had dyed her hair again. It was no longer the copper orange color similar to the bullet shell, but a brighter orange. Combined with her snow-white skin, she instantly seemed several years younger.

In addition, she has lost a lot of weight. She is not wearing the blue and red battle suit, but a beige women's windbreaker. She is slim and slender, like a completely different person.

If he hadn't counted the days, Russell would have thought that several months had passed in the Black Robe World.
