Chapter 82 - Chapter 82: The Good Times Are Over

Shawn witnessed just how terrifying Christopher's 'Primal Sense' talent was for the first time.

The Superman bloodline possesses psychic Superpower.

But for someone as young as Christopher, the mastery of the ability was so mature, and its application so complex, that it far exceeded Shawn's expectations.

"Is my child really such a genius?"

A genius among Supermen.

Not until this moment did Shawn truly realize this.

Suggestion, hypnosis, and a slight modification of memory.

Little Chris's first time fully showing off his skills against a Superhuman had outstanding results.

When Genevieve the shapeshifter walked into the wooden cabin, the Kent family, who were watching the show from low altitude, were practically right in front of her.

But under the influence of little Chris's 'Primal Sense' talent, she turned a blind eye to them, and even spent a long time feeling up Mae, who was also hypnotized, before constantly changing her expression in front of thin air.

An illusion that the kidnapping target was already dead was thus planted in the shapeshifter's mind.

Simple and silent.

At this moment, Shawn looked at the little one playing leisurely with building blocks on the floor and thought: "I must educate this kid well in the future. If he goes down the wrong path and turns evil with his abilities, it would simply be a disaster for this world."

Every ordinary person is a life, and the same goes for Superhumans.

Their Earth cannot be ruined at will.

The shapeshifter was left to the House of Superman for interrogation; the Kent family had already learned the ins and outs of the matter beforehand.

Now it was a rare moment of leisure, and Mira was accompanying Alexander and Benjamin as they looked at picture books.

As their intelligence continued to develop, the two little ones were reading with great interest and were now able to enjoy such activities.

"Mark and the others performed quite well."

Mira commented: "From the moment they sensed something was wrong to rooting out the shapeshifter, they only spent about three days in total. Most importantly, through teamwork, they successfully rescued Mae from the wooden cabin in the wilderness."

"The rookie heroes of the 'House of Superman' can barely graduate, but it's not without problems."

Shawn said: "Gecko and Supersonic have just adapted to their new abilities, the average power level of Mark's team is too low, and the dozen or so newcomers we scouted have serious issues with their mental health."

"Abilities can be improved slowly, but personal character is the most important thing."

Mira laughed: "Mark is a sharp kid, kind and humble. I know that's the reason you mentioned him. As for Beast Girl Natalie and the others, I will pay more attention to their mental health issues."

Mira's special ability, 'Mind Purification', can be said to be born for this purpose.

If you had to say who in this world has the most mental health problems, it would most likely be this group of Superhumans.

Being selected by the two of them and brought back from Stormfront's organization, this group was already among the most orderly, worthy of Mira using her special ability to heal their minds and turn them into normal people in the true sense.

For this, Mira didn't mind making a few more trips as Supergirl.

Even now, they have changed their allegiance and become absolute supporters of Supergirl; no one can refuse treatment from a master of the mind.

It's just that their ages are generally on the older side, so their room for growth might be limited.

Shawn nodded: "Give them some time to grow. Let's keep observing Mark."

Mira, however, looked up: "Things can't just end like this."

Shawn: "Are you referring to Vought International?"

"Yes."

At this moment, Mira was not laughing or joking; her azure eyes shimmered with deep contemplation.

She whispered to Shawn: "Whether it was the previous surveillance, Black Noir, Homelander, or this secret plot, Vought International's actions have crossed our bottom line. They should pay the price for this."

If Superman and Supergirl were not powerful enough, or were slightly negligent and failed to discover these plans targeting them, what would the result be?

Once they succeeded, Vought International would not be merciful to them!

Mira had absolute confidence in herself and Shawn, but she didn't want to be constantly watched by a malicious gaze hiding in the shadows.

She spent her days accompanying her husband, raising their children, doing small experiments beneficial to the world in her spare time, and going out to help the weak.

Her schedule was already tight enough.

In short, once the magnanimous Supergirl holds a grudge against them, their good days are over.

"Of course it won't just end like this. Since the other party refuses to change despite repeated lessons, we should get serious."

Shawn supported his wife's viewpoint.

His tone was indifferent: "The strategies formulated by Vought International's senior management have an impact on our lives, but it doesn't matter much for whether the company itself can operate normally. We just don't want Vought International to collapse so quickly and cause chaos."

The battle to dismantle the Freedom League made them lose their composure, and some people at Vought International vaguely sensed that if they didn't research Superman, the opportunity might never return.

Their intuition was accurate, but it came a little too late.

From the beginning, when Shawn chose to return to his hometown to soak up the sun and farm, he never intended to give Vought International a chance to understand him.

Judging from the plot Shawn had seen before regarding today's The Boys X Universe, the Deaths of most characters were not innocent.

Homelander committed countless evils, killed without blinking, and had his skull pried open with a crowbar.

Butcher's obsession with exterminating Superhumans was too deep, and he was ended by a gunshot from his companion Hughie, who still retained his conscience.

The two leaders of the opposing sides both met the end their lives deserved.

But in Shawn's eyes, the story of The Boys world did not end with the Deaths of those two.

The end of the story.

The person who most deserved to die faded out of people's sight, both publicly and privately, and remained alive.

He is the current CEO of Vought International, the old fox behind the scenes—Stan Edgar.

In 2013, Homelander's evil had not yet fully erupted, and Butcher was just an ordinary member under Mallory supervising Superhumans, with a slightly more outstanding style of doing things at most.

They had not yet become the people Shawn remembered.

And Stan Edgar had been in power at Vought International for a very, very long time.

"Researching the Superman bloodline is quite a smart decision."

A smile curled on the corner of Shawn's mouth: "I noticed that they have secretly changed the transport channels for compound v recently. They must have discovered some clues, but they still underestimate what absolute power means."

...

San Antonio, Texas, at a gas station.

A rugged man, wearing a white cowboy hat and a form-fitting tactical-style leather jacket, was refueling his beat-up pickup truck.

He had a huge silver Lone Star emblem on his right chest, which looked exceptionally eye-catching.

When paying, the gas station attendant greeted him politely: "Mr. Norman, haven't seen you in a long time."

"Been busy saving the world lately."

Norman took the receipt and said with a less-than-pleasant mood: "When I die of exhaustion one day, I hope you can come to my tombstone and leave a carnation."

The gas station attendant didn't take it seriously and laughed: "Hahaha, you are still as humorous as ever."

"Hehe~"

Norman didn't say much more, pulled open the car door with a hint of fatigue, and drove his beat-up pickup onto a remote country road.

He had lived in the current town for over a decade.

Compared to being called Mr. Norman, he actually preferred others to call him by another name—Lone Star.
