American comics: From the black robes to becoming the ultimate Doomsday

This is quite ironic.

He originally only wanted to seek revenge on Homelander.

Homelander's actions would have been hard for him to understand before, but seeing his wife alive and well right in front of him was a completely different story.

And then she had a child with her husband.

Everything about Butcher was turned upside down.

Homelander didn't want to save him; he wanted to pull him out so he could see how ridiculous he was.

The stimulating words spoken by his compatriots, such as "Your wife is very beautiful" and "The son your wife gave me is very handsome," kept echoing in his mind.

It made him feel like his lungs were about to explode with anger.

More than ten days later, Butcher, who was released by Homelanders thanks to Beja, is still not over it.

It is utterly absurd, ridiculous, and creates utter confusion.

In the pub, Butcher stared blankly at Homerman, who was talking and laughing on TV, took a swig of beer, and looked at him with a numb emptiness in his eyes.

He wondered if there were any other ways to kill that guy.

But I can't figure it out.

He now believes that his wife, Becca, must have been forcibly imprisoned by Walter and forced to have children.

After downing several beers, Butcher's phone rang. He opened it, glanced at the number, frowned, and immediately hung up.

However, the guy on the other end of the line seemed tireless, continuing to dial even after he hung up one call after another.

Seven or eight in a row.

Unable to bear it any longer, Butcher pressed the speakerphone button, and Susan's voice came through.

"Butcher, where are you now?"

Hearing the voices inside, Butcher chuckled contemptuously, "Thanks to you, Chief Susan, I'm now hiding in some godforsaken place, drinking beer and having a great time. Thanks for the gift, Chief."

Susan understood that Butcher was angry because he had already handed over Compound V to her, but still hadn't received the Black Robe Squad from the Sanctuary.

His tone immediately became apologetic.

"Sorry, these are all decisions made from above. The sudden appearance of super terrorists has disrupted our plans. The Department of Defense needs superheroes to deal with those super terrorists."

Butcher sneered, "Those terrorists were created by that damn Watt!"

Susan sighed. "It's all speculation right now, but there's no evidence, is there?"

"I wonder if Chief Susan's sudden call to me today was just a casual chat to put me down!"

Susan's voice lowered before she slowly said, "Butcher, Homelander is not invincible..."

Butcher was taken aback by what he heard, then chuckled.

"I don't know how you came to that conclusion, Director Susan, but I brought ten kilograms of explosives with me that day. Do you understand? Homelander wasn't even scratched."

Susan didn't refute, but asked in a low voice, "Do you know the superhero Walter Soldier Boy?"

“What does this have to do with this guy?” Butcher frowned.

He certainly knew Soldier Boy, the guy who was an early superhero introduced by Vought and a household name in that era.

Even now, countless of his CDs and videos are still circulating.

More importantly, the family members who were breastfeeding were killed by this soldier boy.

Susan said, "Russia has a super weapon, rumored to be called BLC Red. It is said to be able to harm powerful superhumans, and even the strongest abilities cannot withstand it."

Butcher's expression froze. "A super weapon?"

"Yes, previous reports stated that the soldier boy died in a nuclear radiation leak in Ohio."

It was actually an operation abroad; the soldier boy died at the hands of the Russians, with those kinds of weapons. I've already confirmed this with Colonel Mallory!

Butcher paused, then a surge of anger welled up inside him. "Fuck! Mallory! She knew all this, but she didn't tell me this!"

Mallory didn't tell him how he was thinking about how to deal with superhumans.

This led to several close calls for them.

Susan understood Butcher's anger. "Perhaps the colonel has other ideas, but now is not the time to be angry. Tell me your location, and I will give you the relevant information. This information contains the possible location of that super weapon."

“To be honest, you’ve given me some useful information this time,” Butcher said after a moment of silence.

After a conversation, Butcher gave Susan an address and then waited.

When Butcher walked out of the tavern in the afternoon, he had a document in his hand.

My fighting spirit, which had just waned, was reignited after I received these documents.

This is a weapon capable of killing Soldier Boy; if found, it would be the bane of those damned superhumans and Homelanders.

Butcher loves this.

Butcher immediately dialed French's number.

He knew the French; he had connections there.

After finding out the Frenchman's current hiding place, Butcher rushed over there.

"Look what good stuff I brought you, brothers!"

Butcher tilted his head back, chuckled, and slammed the folder in his hand onto the table. French and Breastfeeding in the room looked on with curiosity.

Only Hughie, standing nearby, was still indignant about Butcher's earlier abandonment of his teammates.

"Don't tell me you've brought us a new arrest warrant?"

“Exactly the same!” Butcher sneered.

Upon opening the breast milk package, the first thing I saw was the soldier boy on the cover, and I immediately gasped in surprise.

"Soldier boy?"

"Yes, we have a new mission, and it's related to the soldier boy."

"You're not thinking of telling us Soldier Boy isn't dead, and then going to find him to fight Homelander, are you?" Frenchie teased from the side.

Even the breast milk looked puzzled.

"No, no, we're not looking for the soldier boy, we're looking for the weapon that killed him."

"The weapon that killed the soldier boy?"

French and Breast Milk looked at each other in disbelief; they had never heard of any weapon that could kill a soldier boy.

Butcher chuckled. "The soldier boy's death wasn't that simple. I got information from Susan that the soldier boy was killed by the Russians using some kind of superpowered weapon while he was participating in a foreign sport."

"And our new mission is to find this super weapon that killed Soldier Boy, BLC Red! With this, we can easily take down Homelander and Pei Yuan!"

As he spoke, Butcher revealed his signature sly grin, as if victory was assured.

Chapter 58 [They need to be a bit older!]

Maeve's deliberations didn't last long, after she went to Vought Tower, arranged Vought's routine rescue operations, and attended several events with Homelander.

Maeve could no longer take it.

All this pretense and deception now filled her with a deep-seated nausea; every cell in her body was instinctively reacting with utter disgust.

Looking at the smug faces of the people of the motherland.

At this moment, Maeve finally made up her mind.

So, in the Tower of Seven, when no one was paying attention to her, she secretly slipped into the archives where superhero information was stored.

Taking advantage of the moment when no one was looking, he took out a few bills and slipped them into his underwear while Homelander was out, before sneaking out of the Vought Building.

Once the file information is available, things naturally become simpler.

Maeve took the initiative to meet with Pei Yuan and pass on this information to him.

Maeve, who knew these guys inside and out, knew that the things they did behind the scenes were bastards who deserved to be shot a hundred times over.

Even if the Asian kid in front of him could kill him, that would be something to be happy about.

Maeve now.

She spared no effort in trying to break free from the threats and constraints imposed on her by her homelanders.

"Only gunpowder and the Scarlet Duchess?"

Inside the coffee shop, Pei Yuan flipped through the files that Maeve had brought him, looked at them, and asked a question.

Maeve shrugged and said, "There are too many files in the archives. I don't have that much time to search. I'll have to look for opportunities later."

That was Maeve's explanation, but Pei Yuan felt that this wasn't her real reason; she might have wanted to test his abilities.

The other party did not fully trust him.

Pei Yuan didn't seem to care, waving the file in his hand and laughing, "Then we'll wait and see!"

After saying that, Pei Yuan walked out of the coffee shop.

On the morning of the second day, Pei Yuan arrived at the gunpowder residence based on the information in the file and knocked on the door.
