Chapter 217: The Homelander Who Lost His Abilities

Bang! !

Kevin grabbed Homelander's body and threw him to the ground.

Before Homelander could react, Kevin grabbed his collar again and threw him to the side, smashing Homelander against the metal wall.

After doing this, Kevin clapped his hands and said as if he had done something insignificant:

"John, don't you know that before you say something harsh, you must at least have the strength to back it up?"

"Kevin!!!!"

Homelander, who was stunned by Kevin's combo, didn't care about other heroes who were looking for Storm. With red eyes, he flew out of the metal wall and crashed into Kevin.

Bang! !

There was another deafening sonic boom, and Homelander's shoulder pressed against Kevin's chest, knocking him away.

The bodies of the two smashed the metal wall, smashed the ceiling of the underground facility, and rushed directly out of the ground and flew into the sky.

While flying into the sky, Homelander freed his hands and tried to attack Kevin.

But Kevin, who should have been controlled by Homelander, twisted his body in mid-air, escaped from Homelander's grasp, and hit Homelander on the back with an elbow.

With a thud, Homelander felt a pain in his back, and his body, flying in the air, fell vertically from above, landing in the rubble of the plain below, smashing a large pit several meters deep.

Kevin did not fall from the air, and water flowed under his feet, forming steps for him to walk down.

While walking down towards Homelander, Kevin was still talking trash to Homelander:

"Your fighting skills are too rubbish, even Maeve can't beat you. Although my fighting skills are not very good, they should be at least a little better than yours."

Kevin raised his hand, leaving a gap between his index finger and thumb.

Homelander got up from the ground, shook off the dust on his body, and stared at Kevin with red eyes.

Kevin continued:

"Now, I am stronger than you in strength, speed, defense, and recovery. Even your fighting ability is weaker than mine. Do you think you can beat me?"

"Asshole!!!"

The motherland was furious, and the red light accumulated in his eyes suddenly shot out a hot red light, flying towards Kevin!

But Kevin did not dodge. He raised his hand elegantly and controlled the water flow to form a prototype shield in front of him.

The shield took shape quickly, and at the same time, it emitted a chilly air, forming a barrier of condensed ice.

This was the first time that Kevin used ice magic transformed from water magic in actual combat. He wanted to try whether the ice magic with defensive magic patterns attached could resist the motherland's thermal vision.

And the result was quite gratifying.

The barrier emitting chilly air did block the motherland's thermal vision. Although it only resisted for a few seconds and there was a tendency to be melted and penetrated, it was enough to prove the defensive power of this move.

Kevin, who had learned a new skill, nodded with satisfaction, and then continued to say to Homelander:

"Is this your strongest attack method?"

"What...? How did you..."

When he saw Kevin condense the frost shield, Homelander's eyes were full of confusion and bewilderment.

He knew that Kevin could control water, but he never knew that he could turn water into ice.

When did the other party master this ability?

Why did he never know?

But before Homelander could figure it out, Kevin had already removed the frost shield in front of him.

Kevin, who had already "walked" from above to the ground, shook his neck and said:

"It's my turn now, right?"

"!?"

Hearing Kevin's words, Homelander, who was staring at him, had no time to answer, and Kevin's figure disappeared from the spot again, and appeared in front of Homelander in an instant!

The two were very close, and with Homelander's super reaction ability, he could see Kevin raising his fist and seeing his fist hitting him.

However... Homelander found that he couldn't dodge.

His speed seemed to be a little slower than Kevin's.

And it was this slight movement that prevented Homelander from dodging Kevin's fist.

Bang! !

This punch landed precisely on Homelander's cheek, and air burst out from where the fist touched his cheek. Homelander's head tilted and he was about to fly out again, but when he was about to fly out, Kevin grabbed his cloak.

The quality of the uniforms made by the Water Group is of course beyond reproach. Even if Kevin grabbed Homelander's cloak with great force, the cloak never broke or damaged.

Instead, he forcibly pulled Homelander back and flew in the other direction where Kevin swung.

Grabbing Homelander's cloak, Kevin pulled Homelander, who was about to fly away, back and smashed him to the ground on the other side.

The ground was once again pitted, but Kevin did not stop. He held Homelander's cloak in his hand, like holding a rein to control a beast, and smashed Homelander on the ground like a weapon!

After several times of this, Kevin let Homelander go, leaving him lying in the pit and doubting his life.

Homelander was stunned by Kevin's random attacks.

He was really stunned!

Since when did Deep Sea become so powerful that he could fight him on equal terms with his physical strength alone?

I still remember that a long time ago, Deep Sea was weaker than him in terms of physical strength.

And the ability to control the shape of water flow and turn water flow into frost.

People in the motherland have never seen these abilities before! And he has never heard of any superhuman ability that can continue to evolve!

Even at this moment, the people of the motherland have a rather absurd idea in their minds.

He thinks Kevin is probably not a metahuman.

He has never seen such a super human! !

"I heard that you want to become a god?"

When the people of the motherland were doubting their life, Kevin squatted next to him, looking at him lying in the pothole for a long time without regaining consciousness, and said with a smile:

"Then do you think you, who are so weak, can become a god? You can't even defeat me."

“…Kevin!!!!”

"Okay, okay, don't shout so loud, I can hear you."

Kevin said, gently raising his fingers, and several streams of water gathered around the motherland, wrapped around his limbs, and condensed into frost, binding the motherland in place.

Then Kevin took out a light green potion from his pocket and pointed it at the arm of the motherland.

"??"

When they saw the light green potion, the people of the motherland, who had always been fearless, finally panicked:

"What are you going to do?! Do you know...do you know that you-!"

"Of course I know what I'm doing, John." Kevin sighed regretfully to his motherland:

"I've given you many opportunities, really, ever since I was president, I've been humbly accommodating you and letting you continue to be the captain of the Seven and let you do what you want to do.

"I thought that by doing this, you and I could coexist in peace and harmony. I would be my president, you would be the captain of your seven-man team, and we would make money together peacefully, but...

"You disappoint me so much, John, that you want to betray me."

"I...I'm not...betraying...it's obviously you who betrayed us...!"

"It doesn't matter anymore, John."

Kevin stopped the motherland from continuing, and under the other party's desperate eyes, injected the injection into the motherland's arm.

The metal needle made of vibranium penetrated the arm of the motherland, and the green and cold liquid was pushed into the body of the motherland by Kevin.

After doing this, Kevin said slowly:

"From today on, just be an ordinary person, so that no one will get hurt."

"No!!!!"

Seeing the liquid being injected into his body, the motherland man got the strength from nowhere and suddenly broke away from Kevin's restraints, soaring straight into the sky.

His ability is still there, but he doesn't want to continue fighting with Kevin.

He just wanted to escape from here quickly and at the same time find a way to get the medicine out of his body.

The people of the motherland do not want to lose their superpowers, let alone lose their superpowers!

His superpowers are everything to him, and once he loses these, there is no point in his existence.

The Homelander flew away and fled, but Kevin did not pursue him.

Because it would be useless to catch up, the serum that can weaken people's abilities has already begun to take effect.

In at least a few minutes, at most ten minutes, the people of the motherland will lose their abilities and become truly ordinary people.

And when the time comes, someone will naturally take over Kevin's job.

…

Just as Kevin guessed, the effect of the medicine began to take effect in the bodies of the motherland within a few minutes.

John, a native of his country, felt his speed slowing down and he was getting closer to the ground.

Finally at a certain moment, John felt that he could no longer fly.

He fell to the ground.

Like gods falling into the mortal world,

"No...no no no...no!! You can't take away my power! No!!"

Walking on the plain, John roared anxiously.

Kevin wasn't here, and he didn't know who he was yelling at. Maybe he was just venting, but it didn't matter anymore.

The power disappears, the vision is no longer as sharp as it was at the beginning, and the hearing is gradually weakening.

John felt that his body was extremely weak, so weak that he could hardly walk.

Finally at a certain moment, he fell to the ground, like a weak patient unable to get up from the ground.

"No!! Damn it! Damn it!!! How could he do this!! Ahhhh!!!"

Feeling that his ability was really gone, John cried and wailed as loudly as a child.

Being disliked by fans and being scolded online did not break John down.

But when his ability disappeared, John really felt what it meant to be hopeless and despair.

It was not until this moment that John understood that everything he had was based on his superhuman identity.

Once he loses these, he is nothing.

Not even as good as a mortal.

"No...I still have a chance, Compound No. 5...I can still find Compound No. 5——!"

After a moment of pain and despair, John climbed up from the ground as if grasping a life-saving straw, and struggled to walk in the direction they came from.

It doesn't matter if the ability disappears, at least John knows a way to restore people's superpowers.

Compound No. 5!

As long as he is injected with compound No. 5 again, he can gain superpowers again and become a citizen of the motherland that everyone respects!

John did not consider how he, an ordinary person who had lost his abilities, could obtain Compound No. 5 within the Walter Group run by Kevin.

He no longer wanted to think about those complicated issues. Now John just wanted to hold on to his last life-saving rope and seek a chance of 'survival'.

Compound No. 5…Compound No. 5…

John's mind was full of Compound No. 5 at the moment.

But when he was struggling to return to the Water Group, a black van came speeding and stopped in front of John.

John stopped and looked up blankly.

A bearded man who looked familiar to him got out of the black van.

The man was wearing a black windbreaker, and when he saw John's appearance, his face was full of smiles, and his expression was as happy as a fisherman who caught a big fish weighing dozens of kilograms.

"Hey, look who this is, isn't this our dearest homelander?"

The bearded man gave a mocking smile to John, who used to be Homelander.

And in the other's mocking smile, Homelander finally remembered the other's identity.

William Butcher.

The murderer who killed Madeline Stillwell, whom he once suspected.
