#256 - Zhao Zheng, surrender! There are only Azu outside
As the world's most famous superhero company,
Vought International's headquarters are built to be very grand and luxurious.
It stands in the most prosperous area of the city, not only occupying a large area but also being very tall, with an avant-garde facade design, definitely the most iconic building in the area.
It's very easy to find.
At this moment, a young Chinese man arrived outside the Vought International building.
It was Zhao Zheng, who had just finished eating.
He came alone.
These people were dressed in strange costumes and were lining up neatly.
And at the end of the line was the "Audition Registration Office"!
So, these people were all "superheroes" here to participate in the audition.
"Name?" The interviewer's voice came.
The fat man who had just stepped forward immediately said: "Everyone calls me Bob."
The interviewer asked again: "What superpowers do you have?"
Bob: "I can petrify my skin."
"Can you perform it?"
"Of course!"
The fat man raised his right fist and activated his ability, and his fist quickly turned into a stone-like appearance.
…
Zhao Zheng just glanced at it and walked in another direction.
And his appearance had already attracted the attention of many people in the lobby, after all, he had an extraordinary temperament and did not look like an ordinary person.
Almost immediately after Zhao Zheng turned around, several young people in the queue began to whisper.
"That person just now… is that Big Shot Zhao?"
"That's him, no doubt."
"I didn't expect that he would also come to the Spirit Realm? With his strength, he shouldn't be lacking the rewards from the Spirit Realm, right?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Now even a fool knows that the end of the world is coming soon, all superhumans want to improve their strength to deal with the crises that may arise next. We were originally planning to retire, but this time we came out of retirement to venture into the Spirit Realm for this reason… Since we can think this way, why can't he think this way?"
"That's true."
"The key is, why did he come to Vought International? Could it be that he is also here to compete for the position that was vacated by The Seven?"
"Damn, if Big Shot Zhao really wants that position, what's left for us?"
"What do we do now?"
"Let's not pin our hopes here, let's go quickly and team up to become a folk superhero team!"
…
These few people should be the same group of Blue Star superhumans.
They came here for the spot vacated by The Seven, but after seeing Zhao Zheng, they were frightened and changed their minds.
Because they knew that no matter how much they competed, they could not compete with Zhao Zheng…
Zhao Zheng's hearing is now very abnormal.
He heard these few people's whispers clearly.
It seems that the situation on Blue Star is indeed not very good, as Song Haitang said.
Even superhumans who had "retired" were forced to come to the Spirit Realm to seek to improve their strength.
While thinking, Zhao Zheng walked forward and soon arrived at the company's front desk.
The lady in charge of reception at the front desk immediately showed her most brilliant smile when she saw such an extraordinary and handsome young man approaching.
"Hello sir, is there anything I can help you with?"
Zhao Zheng smiled faintly and said directly: "Let Homelander come out to see me."
Although the main person in charge of this newcomer audition is "Ashley Barrett", the company's Senior Vice President, the person in charge of The Seven's public image, who sounds like a powerful figure…
However, Zhao Zheng knew that Ashley was just Homelander's dog.
Perhaps Ashley can still maintain her strong stance in front of the other superheroes of The Seven, but in front of Homelander, she can only completely obey and dare not say a "no".
In Vought International, Homelander is like the Supreme Emperor, with a respected status.
Even if The Seven wants to recruit new members, Homelander has to nod his head in agreement.
Zhao Zheng doesn't have that much time to play power games with the executives of Vought International.
He still wants to go to outer space to bask in the sun!
Therefore, Zhao Zheng came directly to find Homelander.
…
At this moment, there were many people in the lobby who were paying attention to Zhao Zheng, who had an extraordinary temperament.
Hearing Zhao Zheng's words, many people were shocked!
Because.
Zhao Zheng's words were really a bit… rude.
No!
He actually dared to ask Homelander to come out to see him? This is simply courting death!
The front desk receptionist was dumbfounded.
If it weren't for Zhao Zheng's aura being so powerful, she would have even wanted to call the security guards to drive him away.
"Sir… do you have an appointment?"
"Appointment?"
Zhao Zheng smiled and suddenly said: "Forget it, I'll just call him myself!"
As soon as the words fell.
He raised his head and looked at the ceiling.
"Super Vision" activated!
Zhao Zheng's pupils shrank slightly, and his gaze, like an X-ray, instantly penetrated the layers of floors and saw through the entire company building.
Since "Super Vision" reached its maximum level, Zhao Zheng awakened such an ability.
Now his vision is no longer limited to "focusing" but can also "see through"!
This "see through" is not what everyone imagines, being able to completely ignore the obstruction of objects and see behind the wall.
But like an X-ray during security checks, it can see through the things in the package. However, what is seen is an alternative image transmitted by the rays, which is not particularly clear.
This is already very powerful.
Under Zhao Zheng's "see through" ability, he quickly saw that in the company building above his head, there were many transparent human figures, constantly busy.
Among the many transparent human figures, there were several human figures that appeared red!
One of the human figures was even dark red!
Zhao Zheng was already confident in his abilities.
Of course, he knew.
A transparent figure represents a normal, ordinary person.
If, under his "X-ray" vision, the figure appeared red, that indicated a "superhuman"!
The deeper the color, the stronger their power.
Therefore, Zhao Zheng was certain that the deep red figure above him was Homelander!
In the next moment.
His eyes slowly began to turn red…
…
At this moment, many people around were curious about how this arrogant fellow would summon Homelander.
Homelander was the most powerful superhero in the world!
To ordinary people, Homelander was like a god, a true big shot.
If the President said those words, perhaps people would believe it.
As for this young man…
Perhaps he had an extraordinary demeanor, but he probably didn't have the status to summon Homelander at will.
Many people thought that Zhao Zheng was just trying to impress the beautiful receptionist by bragging.
Everyone was ready to watch the joke.
Just then.
Suddenly, two scarlet beams of light shot out from Zhao Zheng's eyes, directly towards the ceiling.
In an instant, the ceiling of the company lobby was pierced through!
Those two scarlet beams of light pierced through the floors of the company building, layer by layer…
…
Meanwhile.
On the 68th floor of the company, in The Seven's luxurious conference room.
Homelander, Black Noir, The Deep, Queen Maeve, A-Train, and others were in a meeting.
To be precise, Homelander was lecturing, and the others were listening obsequiously, even if Homelander's words were very harsh, calling them trash, the others dared not to be angry or speak out…
Just then.
Homelander's gaze fixed on A-Train, and he coldly asked:
"Why hasn't your mess been cleaned up yet?"
He was referring to the incident where A-Train ran over the protagonist's girlfriend.
Facing Homelander's gaze, A-Train appeared very frightened and quickly said: "It's that foolish kid who refuses to sign the compensation plan provided by the company…"
"I don't want to hear any of this!" Homelander said coldly: "If this matter affects The Seven's reputation, you should understand the consequences."
"Yes, sir." A-Train lowered his head and promised: "I will take care of this matter as soon as possible."
"Two days! You only have two days…"
Just as Homelander issued his ultimatum, his expression suddenly changed.
He was a low-end version of Superman, with extremely sharp hearing, and at this moment, he heard some movement coming from below.
In the next moment.
With a "crack" sound.
Two scarlet lasers pierced through the floor beneath his feet at an angle, directly hitting Homelander's knees.
"Ah!!"
Homelander cried out in pain and quickly jumped away.
Almost the instant he dodged, the scarlet lasers stopped and disappeared.
Only two small holes were left in the floor, proving that everything that had just happened was not an illusion.
The sudden change.
Left everyone in the conference room stunned.
Homelander even had an expression of disbelief!
Because, at his knees, his specially made leather pants had been pierced, and the skin on his knees was grazed, with blood seeping out!
He, the great Homelander, the world's number one superhero, was actually injured?
Queen Maeve, who was closest to Homelander, was shocked to see Homelander's injured knees.
So, this god-like guy could also bleed?
"Damn it!!"
After being surprised, Homelander let out an angry roar.
Because his embarrassing appearance had just been seen by several of his colleagues.
This undoubtedly caused great damage to his perfect image!
Homelander immediately returned to his seat, his eyes looking at the two small holes in the floor.
His eyesight was also very good.
Through the small holes, he could see a pair of bright eyes at the end, looking at him with a smile that was not quite a smile.
"I'm going to kill you!"
Homelander was filled with anger and directly smashed through the conference room window, jumping down from the 68th floor.
He could fly!
Seeing Homelander go to settle the score with the culprit, the other members of The Seven all had shocked expressions on their faces.
If you looked closely, you could see different expressions.
For example, in Queen Maeve's eyes, besides shock, there was also curiosity.
Curiosity about the owner of the heat vision.
Being able to injure Homelander was definitely an extraordinary figure.
As for A-Train, schadenfreude was almost written all over his face!
He was very afraid of Homelander and hated Homelander from the bottom of his heart.
"I'm going to help!"
After saying this, A-Train rushed out of the conference room like a hurricane.
His superpower was speed.
As for whether he was really helping or just watching the fun, only he himself knew…
Seeing this, the others also used their own abilities and quickly left the conference room.
…
First floor lobby.
Zhao Zheng retracted his gaze, a hint of a smile on his face.
The heat vision just now only left two small holes in the ceiling, which was the result of his deliberate control.
If he released it at full power, he could shoot two big holes in the sky!!
Even so.
His actions just now alarmed everyone in the lobby.
At this moment, countless shocked eyes were staring at Zhao Zheng, almost everyone's face filled with disbelief.
They couldn't imagine that in this world, there would be someone who dared to cause trouble at Vought International headquarters?
Wasn't that like an old man eating arsenic – tired of living?
And those few superhumans who hadn't had time to leave were in awe while shocked!
As expected of Big Boss Zhao, who punched out an abyss!
So fierce!!
