Chapter 216 Still on the Opposite Side
The real God.
Storm's inflammatory words made Homelander narrow his eyes slightly.
He began to think about the truth of Storm's words and the consequences of helping Storm.
Logically, Homelander should not agree to Storm.
All he wants is the love of the people and the fans. If Storm kills most of the humans, even if he becomes a god, so what?
Homelander's fans are already dead, what's the point of him doing this?
Homelander hesitated, Storm saw his hesitation, and immediately stepped forward and said:
"I know you want to pursue everyone's love for you, just like you said, everyone, from teenagers to seniors in their teens, they all love you, and you are worried about losing them.
"But don't worry, after becoming the new god, you will be liked by more people. Although you will experience a little bit of short-term pain, the people who worship and admire you will be people from the whole world, not just limited to a certain country.
"Besides, I will love you too. You may not know what your identity is."
"What?"
Homelander was stunned by what Storm said.
His identity?
What identity?
Storm spoke slowly, as if telling a story:
"Do you know Soldier Boy? Yes, he was the hottest hero in the 1970s and 1980s. He once participated in the experiment of Vogelbaum, the chief scientist of Vought who cultivated you. They... took his sperm and cultivated a child, a boy."
"..."
Homelander's eyes widened when he heard this.
This was something he had never known.
He had always thought that he was born in a laboratory, without a father or a mother, with only a cold experimental room and those experimenters who did not see any love from them.
Homelander had never thought that he would have a father and a mother. Every time he participated in the Vought Group, those documentaries recalling the past, and read the scripts, he would feel nauseous when talking about his parents who did not exist at all.
Parents are a luxurious and non-existent word for him.
However, Storm now told him that he was not born out of thin air, he at least had a father.
That's right, Homelander is not a clone, he is a human being born through normal reproduction.
Regardless of whether it is surrogacy or IVF, the genes in Homelander have a source.
And what Storm is talking about now is this source.
"Walter wants to create a more powerful superhuman in this way. I don't know who the egg provider is. It may be Scarlet Lady, other superhuman women, or even me, but I know that the sperm provider is Soldier Boy.
"He is your father, and I used to be his girlfriend."
Storm said patiently.
She knew this because she had heard Edgar mention it, but Storm didn't know who Homelander's mother was.
But for Homelander who longs for parental love, it doesn't matter if you don't know who your mother is, knowing who your father is is enough.
"..."
"You know my age, right, and Soldier Boy too, we will not grow old, and you will not grow old either, so as long as there is enough time, after establishing the superhuman kingdom, you will get more...more love!
"This country, the whole world, everyone, all superhumans will love you! After all, who wouldn't love their king?"
Storm caught Homelander's mind, induced him with words, and reached out to Homelander:
"...Come on, you help me, I will help you, become a god, become the leader of the whole world!"
Looking at Storm's outstretched hand, Homelander was silent. He stared at Storm for a long time, and suddenly asked:
"What about Kevin?"
"He betrayed us!!"
When mentioning Kevin, Storm's mood was a little unstable again.
In Storm's view, Kevin not only betrayed superhumans, but also betrayed her!
This is a traitor, no matter how powerful and potential he has, he is a shameful traitor!
After Storm's roar, he forced himself to calm down again when facing Homelander, and said to Homelander:
"You can deal with him, at least here, you can definitely deal with him, and I don't need you to do much else, you just need to help me stop him.
"The facilities here have been abandoned for a long time, and it takes time to restart. "
Storm looked at the facilities behind her.
She had been working on these things since the early morning, but after all, these things had been abandoned for a long time, and they were old, so many parts had aged and needed to be replaced.
Although Storm was prepared, she was alone after all, and repairing these things had already involved all her energy, and she had no time to deal with other people.
So she chose to win over the Homelanders and let them help stop Kevin.
As long as she delays for a while, Storm can handle things here, and she can realize the first step of her dream and trigger a war between superhumans and humans!
When all humans are infected with the virus and die one after another, she wants to see what Kevin will choose.
Is it to watch everyone die, or to let everyone become superhumans to avoid this virus that only targets ordinary humans.
No matter which side Kevin chooses, it is Storm's victory!
After Storm finished speaking, he was quiet for a while, waiting for the motherland's response.
Seeing that the motherland was still thinking and didn't respond, Feng Feng urged slightly:
"Decide as soon as possible. They will be here soon. We don't have much time."
"…Can you really build a superhuman kingdom?"
"Of course! I have already achieved results and can turn ordinary people into superhuman beings! With your help, we can build a superhuman army and conquer the entire world!
"And think about it, this is your only chance to surpass Kevin. You shouldn't be willing to have him on top of you for the rest of your life, right? You are the best, and you are the one who should be at the top. not him!"
The storm's rousing words continued, and the people of the motherland, who had been vaguely persuaded by her, now made a complete decision.
He turned around and walked towards where he came from, and at the same time said to the storm:
"I hope what you said is true. I will help you stop Kevin, but I'm not sure how long it will take to stop them. What you want to do must be done as soon as possible."
"Don't worry, I won't keep you waiting too long."
Seeing that the people of the motherland finally agreed to form an alliance with him, Feng Feng breathed a sigh of relief and replied with a smile.
…
Kevin and a group of people walked along the old passage.
This facility seems to have been abandoned for a long time and has just been opened. There are dust and rusty debris everywhere. Even the lights above have a sense of age, which makes Kevin feel like he has traveled back to the 1940s and 1950s. Feel.
With the manpower and material resources at that time, it was obviously not possible for ordinary people to build such a huge underground facility here.
Maybe this is another one of the Walter Group's methods, and it's a method that even Edgar doesn't know about.
Kevin didn't know why Storm opened this place, but he could understand that it was definitely not a good thing.
However, Shockwave and the Motherlanders have used their super speed to reach deeper places. I guess the battle is over now.
Unless... something unexpected happens.
Just as Kevin thought this, in the passage ahead with the lights flickering on and off, a figure slowly walked out from inside.
Is a native of the motherland.
"Oh, that's true."
Kevin had already guessed the reason when he saw the people from his motherland appearing and there were no storms or shock waves around him.
The situation he least expected to see happened in front of him after all. The people of the motherland were persuaded by the storm and turned against their 'companions'.
"Annie, take Maeve and the others there."
Kevin, who sensed that his motherland had betrayed him, whispered to Annie.
But with the super hearing of the people of the motherland, no matter how low Kevin's voice is, he can hear it clearly.
After hearing Kevin's arrangements for Annie, the people of the motherland spoke out to stop them:
"I advise you not to do this."
"Annie, don't listen to him, just walk over."
Kevin ignored the 'warning' of the motherland and let Annie pass, while he himself came face to face with the motherland:
"John, have you been convinced by the storm? Decided to go to the opposite side of me?"
"You are the one walking on the opposite side of us!"
The voice of the motherland was a little louder. He pointed at Kevin and said:
"It's you! You're constantly weakening the status of superhumans and heroes! It's you who are trying to make superhumans disappear, trying to make us become ordinary people!
"I also want to ask you, why? Why do you do something worse than a beast? Target your own compatriots?"
"I'm just doing what I think I should do, John, it's your ideas that are too paranoid."
Kevin deadpanned.
He has never considered himself a superhuman, and just because he is a superhuman, it does not mean that he must be tied to a superhuman.
"No, it's not my paranoia, it's you... you did it wrong! Kevin! You've done it wrong from the beginning!"
"Whether I did something wrong or not has nothing to do with you...Annie, don't be stunned."
Kevin looked at Annie again.
Annie looked at Kevin, then at the people from the motherland not far away, and asked:
"Can you...be alone?"
"Who do you think I am?"
Kevin asked with a smile.
Having fought Thanos, Ultron, and Egg, even in the Marvel world, Kevin's combat prowess is at the top of the list.
In the world of black robes, he is even more invincible.
Not to mention people from the motherland, even if the people from the motherland come with his father, the soldier boy, they can't be Kevin's opponent.
Seeing that Kevin was confident, Annie no longer worried, winked at Maeve and Black, and was about to take them there.
But the people of the motherland stood in the middle of the aisle like sculptures, stopping everyone:
"I told you, you'd better not do this!"
boom! ! !
As soon as the man from the motherland finished speaking, a sonic boom sounded in the small space, and then the figure of the man from the motherland disappeared into the narrow space together with Kevin.
Instead, at the corner at the end of the passage, a large black hole appeared.
Looking at the place where Kevin used to be next to her, Annie breathed out softly and said to Maeve and Black:
"let's go."
"Is he really okay in the deep sea?"
Maeve didn't know Kevin's true combat power, and her impression of Kevin and her motherland's strength was still stuck in the original version, so she couldn't help but express concern.
Anne, who was deeply aware of Kevin's strength, comforted Maeve and said:
"Don't worry, as long as he is here, the people of the motherland will not bother us. I trust him."
As she spoke, Anne's eyes lit up with stars as she looked into the depths of the passage ahead:
"Now, it's time for us to work."
If Kevin goes to deal with the Homelanders, then Storm will naturally become their opponent.
