Vought Tower.
Inside the staircase auditorium on the 50th floor.
It is divided into two floors. There is a large podium at the front of the first floor for awards or exhibitions, and a large screen to present exciting content to the audience. The second floor has multiple auditorium platforms that can accommodate hundreds of people.
This auditorium is spacious and can accommodate 5,000 people.
At this time, the lights in the auditorium were dim, with only a spotlight on the podium and a short video being played on the big screen.
The content of the short film is similar to the self-introductions of most companies. It starts with a beautiful and pleasant rural scenery, and then the parents take 'Children and happily run on the grassland.
The screen changes.
Play the busy traffic scenes of big cities, and then combine the POSE photos of two hundred Super Hero to form the outline of the United States.
and the declaration "We make heroes super."
Playback ends.
The lights on the podium became brighter.
Madelyn, wearing a women's shirt and a black hip-hugging skirt with wavy blonde hair, walked out behind the scenes and waved hello to the applauding audience and shareholders with a smile on her face.
I have to mention that Madelyn, who is already fifty years old, has maintained a fairly good figure. Although her face has some wrinkles, it is not difficult to see that she was once a top beauty.
When Homelander was a teenager, he began to be raised and cared for by Madelyn. Children who are ignorant in adolescence will naturally regard Madelyn as a sexual//love object.
And Walter's senior executives discovered this "characteristic" of Homelander, so they were able to use Madelyn to indirectly control Homelander.
I saw Madelyn walking slowly to the center of the podium, holding the microphone in his right hand and smiling at everyone, "Ladies and gentlemen.
Various data show that now is still the best time to join the Super Hero industry. Our net income has increased by 12%, and our latest Super Alliance movie has a box office of 2 billion!"
"Wow~!"
After the words fell, another round of warm applause erupted in the auditorium.
Half of the people in the audience were Watt shareholders, and the other half were invited celebrities, politicians and wealthy businessmen.
In a capitalist country, money is the most important thing. No matter what "super villain" makes the society panic, or the impeachment of Super Hero, this will not affect the revenue capability of an international company.
These invited celebrities, politicians and wealthy businessmen will naturally have the intention to invest in shares after seeing Walter's revenue generation capabilities.
After the applause.
Madelyn waved his left hand to the audience and introduced to everyone with a smile, "I have a surprise for everyone!
Let us please the Deep! Black Noir! Queen Maeve!!"
"Whoa!!!!"
Following Madelyn's words, the Deep, Black Noir and Maeve stood up and left the audience one after another, and the audience stood up and applauded even more excitedly.
Amid everyone's support and cheers, the three members of the Seven stepped onto the podium and stood behind Madelyn with smiles on their faces.
Immediately afterwards.
The Deep was the first to give a speech about his personal feelings, while Black Noir, who took the microphone, remained silent, but still received fierce applause.
Finally, it was Maeve who took the microphone.
She said that Lamplighter was her good friend. After becoming famous, she chose to retire. She put her left hand behind the scenes and loudly said to everyone:
"Now, I want to introduce a special member to you. She will soon replace Lamplighter as my teammate. I can't wait to cooperate with her.
Please give Starlight some applause and invite her to come to the stage!"
After speaking, Starlight, who looked nervous and excited, walked out of the background and walked onto the podium, waving and interacting with the audience.
Starlight hugged Maeve, Black Noir and the Deep one by one, showing a harmonious scene of the Seven in front of the camera and the audience.
In fact, this scene appeared in the first episode of the first season of the American TV series <The Boys>.
However, due to the appearance of William, some butterfly effects occurred in this universe. Originally, only the Deep introduced Starlight, but now there are more Maeve and Black Noir.
The reason is also very simple.
Due to the recent rampage of hackers played by Serena, the Seven's various activities have dropped sharply. Black Noir and Maeve have free schedules, so they were naturally called to the shareholders' meeting by Madelyn.
While attracting celebrities, wealthy people and politicians to invest in stocks, it can also restore some of Walt's image.
Madelyn originally wanted to notify Homelander, but for some reason, neither she nor Walter's technical department could get in touch with Homelander.
Regarding this, Madelyn didn't have too much entanglement. He could only think that Homelander was doing something to release his animal desires again.
Little did they know that Homelander was following 'her' request to go to the far north of Canada to deal with a 'fugitive congressman'.
Homelander's performance in the American TV series is indeed much better than that in the comics. At least he is not a fool with a negative IQ.
But Homelander is still a giant baby with naive ideas, so in order to please Madelyn, he went to Canada without any doubts.
Just when the atmosphere of the shareholders' meeting reaches its peak...
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The doors and door frames throughout the auditorium were suddenly pushed open and broken by brute force, and black figures also flashed out of the ventilation duct openings on the top of the auditorium.
"Click!"
Then, the originally dimly lit auditorium suddenly became brighter, and all the lights were artificially turned on.
!
This sudden movement caused everyone including Maeve, the Deep and Starlight to close their eyes and need to adapt to the sudden change of environment.
On the other hand, Black Noir, who had always been wearing sunglasses, was not affected by this huge change, but after seeing Tiger Form, who was much larger than the Siberian tiger, Black Noir immediately made a preparation posture.
The Black Noir in the play should be the "ninja" with the most fighting skills and combat experience among all the Superman types, and he also serves Walter and Edgar (Chicken Uncle) loyally.
"Ah!! It's those super villains!"
"Run! Run!!"
After everyone's vision returned to normal and they saw the tracker who had rushed to the front desk, the audience was so frightened that they screamed and crawled and rolled to escape from the auditorium.
"Hiss!!"
However, the Tiger Forms, who had already blocked the entrance and exit, opened their mouths of fangs dripping with mucus and issued a low growl unique to Xenos as a warning.
It seems that if you want to leave the auditorium safely and worry-free, you can only solve these Tiger Form Xenos.
They are just ordinary humans, and there is no way they can defeat these beasts with scarlet exoskeletons, but...
"Queen Maeve! Save us!"
"Black Noir!! Beat these monsters back to their ovaries!"
The Seven, who represents the pinnacle of Super Hero, has three veterans and a newcomer present. There must be a way to save these innocent people!
Even Walter's shareholders are full of unlimited hopes for the four "Super Hero" on the podium.
