That blow was powerful and heavy, swift as the wind.
To Homelander as he was now, Thor's attack was...
Slow.
Far too slow.
With Super Speed mode activated, his dynamic vision had entered "bullet time."
Thor's imposing charge looked like slow-motion playback in his eyes.
He could see every detail of Thor's movements, even the tremors of the muscles in his arms.
"Heh, no wonder speedsters always think they're gods."
Homelander chuckled softly.
When the hammer was still one centimeter away from his head.
Whoosh!
He vanished—not by teleporting, but by sliding sideways at the utmost speed.
Thor's hammer struck empty air, and the immense momentum made him stagger forward a step.
"What?!"
Before Thor could react, a cold voice rang out beside his ear.
"I'm over here, blondie."
Bang—!!!
Homelander appeared on Thor's right side and drove a plain, no-frills right hook solidly into Thor's left cheek.
In that instant, Thor did not even have time to scream. Under the massive impact, his facial muscles rippled and warped visibly, and his whole body flew sideways like a cannonball fired from its barrel.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
He smashed through the warehouse's load-bearing pillars, crashed through thick brick walls, and finally rolled across the mud-soaked ground like a skipping stone for more than a dozen turns, plowing a trench through the hard concrete.
"Thor!!" Jane Foster screamed in terror.
"Cough, cough..."
Thor crawled out of the rubble and spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva. He shook his dizzy head, fury practically tangible in his eyes.
"What tremendous strength..."
Homelander floated in midair, lightly blew nonexistent dust from his fist, and flashed Thor a mocking smile from afar.
"A god's face really is thick. Nice feel to it."
"Mortal! You will pay for your arrogance!!"
Thor roared, Mjolnir spinning
