Chapter 16 - Chapter 16 Christmas Party 2

[ Name ]: Shawn Kent

[ Gender ]: Male

[ Lifespan ]: 3600

[ Lineage ]: Superman (Bronze)

[ Talents ]: Steel Body (Bronze), Stellar Energy (Passive), Bio-field (Passive)

[ Abilities ]: Click to view...

[ Evaluation ]: A growing Superman, hmm, an alien.

Among them, the levels of the six-piece Steel Body set are:

[ Steel Body (Bronze): Super Strength (Bronze) LV4, Super Agility (Bronze) LV4, Super Physique (Bronze) LV4, Super Senses (Bronze) LV4, Super Brain (Bronze) LV4, Super Healing (Bronze) LV4 ]

His abilities column has also been upgraded to:

[ Abilities: Flight (Bronze) LV4, Heat Vision (Bronze) LV3, Freeze Breath (Bronze) LV3 ]

Over this period, continuous training and going out to fight have significantly contributed to Shawn's ability improvement.

The six-piece Steel Body set has all reached LV4. Among them, the enhanced 'Super Physique' and 'Super Strength' are slightly higher, but still far from breaking through.

The improvement in Flight is the most obvious. Previously, it was at the same LV2 level as Heat Vision and Freeze Breath, but after long-term training, it has now taken the lead to catch up with the main group, reaching LV4.

Based on Shawn's personal combat experience during this time, LV4 abilities are already quite high in The Boys universe, enough for him to roam freely.

As for how it compares to Homelander...

As he was thinking.

[ Please note, the host's personal reputation has reached the basic standard. Based on the current universe time, the 'Christmas Party' special mission is now activated!! ]

[ Christmas Party (Current time 3 days): You have punished evil and promoted good in the name of Superman, accumulating reputation for the Superman family, but this is not enough to make the world truly remember. Please complete 10 justice events with at least state-level impact within the next 3 days, and let Superman's reputation resound globally!! ]

[ Current progress: 0/10, Reward (Unfinished): All Superman talent abilities +1. ]

Yo~

After Mira became pregnant, the system, which had been quiet for a long time, finally had a big movement again.

Christmas Party?

All Superman talent abilities +1?!

He loves it!

Shawn stretched his neck, shook his shoulders, and said to Mira, "Darling, in order to maintain world peace, I won't be home for dinner tonight..."

"What?"

In Mira's astonished gaze, he put on his Superman suit and flew into the sky, "Don't worry, I will bring back gifts!"

...

The New York Times reported, "Superman has been appearing crazily recently, and his behavior has once again fallen into controversy!"

"Early yesterday morning, Superman appeared at the Texas border and used Heat Vision to kill a middle-aged Mexican male. According to the local police, the male was confirmed to be the head of a human trafficking ring, but Superman's reckless behavior is still suspected of excessive killing and unauthorized law enforcement, and it also caused the police to lose leads on several important cases."

Superman's range of activity has suddenly expanded, and his methods remain as decisive and cold as ever.

This caught some criminals who thought they had figured out his behavior off guard.

"Damn Superman, what the hell is he going crazy for!"

For a time, some cheered, some cursed, and others hid in fear.

The eyes of the whole world were once again focused on Superman.

...

Red River Home is an orphanage with a long history.

It is said to have been founded in 1965 and is a shelter dedicated to adopting abandoned children with Superpowers, full of humanistic care.

This is the public narrative.

Shawn, after all, has different memories. He has carefully investigated Vought International's industrial layout and is very certain that Red River Home has intricate connections with a subsidiary of Vought International.

It is actually a secret institution set up by Vought International to handle its own "waste products."

Of course, in order not to let problem children cause social unrest and implicate Vought International's reputation, it is also responsible for the training and education of the children, while incidentally re-screening which of the missed items can be reused.

Victoria Neuman, the head-popper who left a deep impression on Shawn, came from Red River Home. She blew up her parents' heads when she was an infant, but later, because she was naturally intelligent and her Superpower was outstanding enough, she was spotted by Vought International CEO Stan Edgar, adopted, and secretly trained as a political pawn.

Shawn descended from the sky, took off his Superman suit, and entered as an ordinary charitable donor. The process was unexpectedly smooth.

Since similar donors appeared from time to time, the director's vigilance was not high, or rather, she actually did not know the secret of compound v, so she had no suspicions about this handsome young man, Shawn.

Shawn came here because of a smuggling case from the Mexican border to Texas.

The leader was also a super-human who had walked out of Red River Home, and he had quite a few helpers. Shawn started investigating, followed the trail, and found this institution.

He was still missing a bit of information to uproot the organization.

In order for the [Christmas Party Special Mission] to be completed successfully.

Shawn did not intend to let any accomplice go.

But since he was already here, Shawn discovered that there was more he could do.

Being in The Boys universe, Shawn was very interested in Vought International's compound v, and he was also interested in these super-humans who successfully possessed abilities after being injected with compound v.

Before, there were no conditions, but now it's different.

Hmm, grabbing one or two test subjects directly and locking them up for secret research was not his style.

That's what villains would do.

How could Superman do such a thing?

He could completely and openly select suitable candidates and let them work for him in a straightforward manner.

Most super-humans are not emotionally stable. In a sense, aren't these children who grew up injected with the serum a kind of patient?

Abandoned super-humans generally have psychological or physiological problems. Being discriminated against after growing up is almost a high-probability event, and it is difficult for them to achieve success in the secular sense in society. Those who are worse off can only struggle on the subsistence line.

Based on this, Shawn believed that the recruitment conditions he offered were very attractive.

Unexpectedly, it was flatly rejected by the director of Red River Home.

In the office.

The director, who was flipping through documents on the computer, said in a meaningful tone, "Sir, I heard that you are preparing to recruit workers recently, selecting two children over 16 years old to go back to your hometown to help with farming?"

"Yes."

Shawn adjusted his black-rimmed glasses and smiled sincerely, "I have thousands of acres of farmland and pastures in my hometown, but I've been suffering from a lack of help, so they have been in a desolate state. Next year, I plan to vigorously develop the land and put it to use, so I urgently need two capable assistants to help."

Director: "Since it's about farming and land reclamation, why not ask for people from the agricultural association? I think going through their channels would be more suitable for you."

"No, I can't get other skin colors from them."

"???"

"Sorry, just kidding."

Shawn straightened his collar, unhurriedly, "The conditions are a bit tough. The talent I need must have excellent physical fitness, preferably super-humans, so I came here. Of course, don't worry about their future; the recruitment conditions I offer are very sincere, and the remuneration is definitely generous."

"Siberia?"

"Hehe..."

Shawn felt a bit speechless and said helplessly, "It's not that severe, it's in the hot south-central Texas."

He thought it was common knowledge that the physical fitness of super-humans is stronger than that of ordinary people.

He didn't expect that he was the one who was wrong.

"At first, hearing what you said, I thought the so-called land reclamation had to be done under extreme environmental conditions to complete some harsh test. This was really too scary. Fortunately, I overthought it."

"I have no intention of blocking the children's departure, but look at these little ones..."

The director took a deep breath, pointed his finger at the group of children outside the window who were seriously playing games, and shook his head at Shawn earnestly, "Which of them makes you think their physical fitness is stronger than ordinary people?"

In fact, there are far fewer super-humans with physical enhancement than Shawn thought.

Moreover, these are the remaining inferior products.

The reality is:

Super-humans with powerful physical talents are not necessarily normal.

Those who are emotionally stable are either picked early by Vought International or are well taken care of by their parents, while those who are emotionally unstable are highly dangerous and are mostly sent to mental hospitals for strict supervision, and those who are unlucky directly become experimental consumables.
