The conference room at the headquarters of the Wotech Group.

Upon seeing the photos of the tough guy mingling with the Boys, many members of the Seven changed their expressions.

Amidst the pervasive atmosphere of fear, Queen Maeve felt a surge of joy.

She feigned a moved expression, looked at Homelander, and said solemnly, "That's... the soldier boy?"

Homelander stared intently at the photo, at the hexagonal shield faintly visible on the tough guy's left hand.

"Yes, it's definitely him."

The man from the motherland pursed his lips slightly, forcefully maintaining a serious expression on his handsome face to preserve his authority and confidence.

The locomotive driver asked with surprise and doubt, "Didn't he die many years ago?"

"Is that the soldier boy who was once a sensation across America?"

Starlight was equally astonished, asking, "The former leader and hero of the Vought Group, and the captain of the 'Blood for Blood' team, the predecessor of the Super Seven?"

However, that was more than 30 years ago!

Ashley nodded. "According to the analysis of the Vought Group's intelligence department, it is indeed him."

"Since the Blood for Blood team was attacked by Soviet troops in Nicaragua in 1984 and the soldier boy was arrested, the Vought Group's intelligence department has completely lost contact with him."

"I never expected to see them in New York State now, alongside the Boys."

She found it incredible too.

Los looked at the group of heroes.

They would probably be even more surprised if they knew that the previous new member, Stormfront, was from the same era as Soldier Boy and had a past relationship with him.

This old boy, frozen in Russia to this day, is indeed the best candidate to balance the interests of his homeland.

The strictest father in the country.

Yes, just the literal meaning.

If Homelander is the strongest in modern times, then Super Soldier was the strongest on land in the last century.

Aside from not being able to fly, not having super speed, and not having laser vision, it has nothing else to offer.

Soldier Boy's superhuman strength and physique are second only to Homelander, and he possesses a special ability that can counter all superhumans—

By charging up, a chest cannon comparable to a small nuclear explosion can be fired. Superhumans hit by the chest cannon beam particles will temporarily or even permanently lose their superpowers!

Facing the former heroic leader.

When Homelander saw the soldier boy in the photo, he instinctively felt threatened—a king must not meet another king!

Ashley looked at the person in the main seat and spoke up, reminding him, "Sir, what about the future goals you mentioned earlier?"

"This will be put on hold for now."

Homelander looked dazed and glanced at the group of members below. "Now, someone has to verify the identity of the soldier boy in the picture."

The starlight quietly surveyed the surroundings.

This mission is far too dangerous; if he were to actually face the soldier boy, he could very well lose his life.

Even the usually diligent locomotive driver kept his head down and dared not speak.

Just when Homelander wanted to force roll call.

A calm voice broke the silence in the conference room: "I'll go."

Everyone stared in astonishment at Los, who had spoken.

Los continued, "My ability is to enhance items, which might be able to hold him off for a while. As the vice-captain, I have to take the lead."

"Okay, okay, it has to be you."

Homelander looked at Los with admiration, even a hint of respect.

Even I'm scared.

Doesn't this younger generation feel afraid at all?

Homelander stared at Los and said in a deep voice, "Just confirming their identity is enough; a direct confrontation isn't necessary. You... don't die so easily!"

The other heroes, including Ashley, were stunned.

Homelander seems to be giving instructions, but he also relaxes the conditions for the mission, and the last sentence doesn't sound like something he would say at all.

Los took it all in stride.

If everyone on the field is merely a tool to the Homelanders.

He plays the role of the most useful all-around tool.

At this moment, Queen Maeve suddenly spoke up: "I'll go too. Xuanse and I are already on the same team, we can't let him take the risk alone."

After thinking for a moment, the man from the motherland agreed, "Okay, be careful."

The meeting is now adjourned.

Los and Queen Maeve had a brief discussion and planned to begin taking action in the next day or two.

That evening.

Los returned to his apartment, removed his battle suit, washed up, and changed into casual clothes.

He was preparing to fly into the night sky, chasing the sun that had already sunk below the horizon, as usual.

Inside the house, AI Monday issued a notification via audio link to the television:

"Sir, the breast milk has sent a message."

Los immediately instructed that the message be shown on a television screen on Monday.

Breast Milk: "Iron Man, the Butcher just held an emergency meeting. After some internal discussion, we believe this is the most critical moment for the Boys!"

"You must show up in person and meet with us privately, otherwise we cannot fully trust you."

After reading the message, Los narrowed his eyes and replied, "Is this the Black Robe's message, or the Butcher's?"

Soon, the mother's milk replied: "It was the butcher's idea, but it was also unanimously agreed upon by the members of the black robes."

Los paused for a moment.

Previously, the black robe was of little value; it was merely a troublemaker.

Currently, the man in black is temporarily working with the soldier boy, and they have clearly reached a cooperation agreement.

Perhaps by using his temporary identity as a member of the Black Robe group, he could first make in-person contact with the soldier boy to confirm his strength.

In any case, only members of the Super Seven have seen the true appearance of the second-generation Xuanse. Now that there is the artificial intelligence Monday, there is no fear of easily exposing multiple identities.

Los thought of this and replied to Breastfeeding: "How about tonight?"

The breast milk supplier quickly replied: "No problem, I'll send you my location, see you tonight!"

In the dead of night, a crescent moon hung in the dark blue night sky, its halo hazy.

New York State.

Far from the glitz and glamour of the city, the Hudson Valley region.

In a secluded manor, isolated from the world.

The members of The Boys—Butcher, French, Breast Milk, and Hughie—were all patiently waiting in the living room.

Suddenly, the sound of car horns came from outside the manor.

The mother almost jumped off the sofa, excitedly exclaiming, "It's Iron Man! He's here as promised!"

French and Hughie exchanged a glance, both harboring intense curiosity about the top hacker who had been secretly helping them.

After all, even the temporary compound No. 5 can be manufactured.

"Don't let your guard down, prepare your weapons, and inject temporary compound five!"

The butcher in the lead remained vigilant, quickly got up, turned off the living room lights, and leaned against the first-floor window to peer out.

boom!

With the roar of the engine, two beams of light pierced the night.

A blue SUV sped out of the forest road and stopped outside the manor gate, its engine off.

Upon realizing that there was indeed only one person in the car, the members in black robes came out from the door to greet them.

When they saw the person getting out of the driver's seat, they were all stunned.

The Iron Man, who possesses top-notch hacking skills and has repeatedly provided perfect support to the Boys from the internet, is actually a young and handsome man?

Tap tap.

A burly, tough man, hearing the commotion outside, also came out of the manor gate, casually shoving Hughie, who was blocking his way, aside and glaring at Los with an indignant expression.

Los remained calm and looked at him as well, the two staring at each other.
