While Samuel was envisioning all his subordinates as Super Soldiers, the straining Billy had already rushed forward, using all his strength, raising his hand to punch, and heavily smashing over.
"Bang!"
"Be careful! Hurry and dodge—uh—" Starlight awkwardly withdrew her reminder.
Samuel looked at the fist pressing against his chest and slowly raised his head to look at Billy's suddenly changed expression.
"Does it hurt?"
Does it hurt?
My bones are broken, okay?!
Billy didn't care about the shock and reacted quickly by throwing an uppercut at Samuel's face with his other hand.
Don't hit someone in the face. I'm not Homelander who gave you a hat and made you a father. Attacking my face, are you polite?
He raised his leg and extended his foot. Just as Billy's fist was about to graze his face, he directly kicked him away.
A hair's breadth is an unreachable shore forever!
Watching Billy being kicked into the air and about to disappear from sight—
The wind suddenly rose!
Starlight was just about to press down her messy flying hair when she saw Billy being lifted up by Samuel, who was gripping his neck!
She almost thought she was seeing things!
How is this possible?!
Billy was clearly about to fly out of the alley, so how did he end up being grabbed by Samuel like a little chick in the blink of an eye?
Starlight was stunned, Hughie was also stunned, and even Billy himself was stunned!
"You, you're also a Speedster?!" Hughie shouted in a daze, immediately thinking of A-Train, the representative of Speedsters.
It was the same when A-Train hit and killed his girlfriend, so fast that people didn't even realize what happened.
"No, that's not right, you also used Hot Ray similar to Homelander to kill people in the nightclub. Why do you have so many abilities? Why can you turn him into a Super Soldier? You—who exactly are you?!"
Hughie questioned loudly in disbelief, and then—Samuel's single look made him calm down!
He lowered his head and backed away, retreating so decisively and skillfully that it was heartbreaking.
Samuel didn't dwell on Hughie, nor did he plan to dwell on Billy. It wasn't because he had a good temper, but because he was in a good mood!
Billy fought with Starlight, and the combat reward dropped the Super Soldier Serum like nesting dolls; fighting with himself, it actually dropped the Super Soldier Serum again!
Was his drop rate high, or was I too lucky?
"Why!"
Billy grabbed Samuel's wrists with both hands, his face flushed, his expression pained, and he hoarsely roared intermittently, "Why did you turn me into a Superhuman? Are you an enemy—or a friend!"
"An enemy or a friend?"
"That kind of question is up to you!"
Samuel let go of Billy, sneered, and walked towards Starlight. He put his arm around her waist and shot into the sky with a boom, disappearing into the vast night.
Billy silently picked up the documents on the ground. He had thought the other party would kill him or hand him over to Vought Company, but he never expected the other party would actually turn him into a Superhuman!
"Are you alright?" Hughie looked at the somewhat dejected Billy and softly asked, "Do you, do you know who they are?"
"I will know!"
Billy shook his head. The woman was one thing, but that Asian man—
Not only did he possess multiple powerful abilities like Hot Ray, Super Speed, Flight, and super defense and strength, but he could also turn others into Superhumans!
Who exactly was this powerful and mysterious guy, and where did he come from?
He seemed to understand me very well, knowing that I had evidence of Superhumans and Vought Company's crimes. So, what was his purpose in turning me into a Superhuman?!
With a myriad of thoughts, Billy limped out of the alley with Hughie and went to a nearby bar.
He needed to show Hughie the contents of the documents to strengthen his resolve to fight Vought Company, and he also needed to calmly consider the various situations he might face after becoming a Superhuman!
Samuel chose to turn Billy into a Superhuman just to verify the success rate of the Super Soldier Serum. After all, failure would result in death, and he wasn't familiar with Billy. It was better for Billy to die than for his own people to die in the future, right?
Success, Billy became a Super Soldier, a Superhuman.
Failure, at worst, he would go back and kill Homelander to avenge him.
Samuel was also preparing to verify whether the Super Soldier Serum was also 100% successful on Superhumans and whether their abilities could be compatible!
If Compound V and the Super Soldier Serum were not in conflict, then the strength of the army he wanted to form could be further enhanced!
On the street, Starlight mustered up the courage to speak, "You, where are you going now? Can I, can I go home?"
"Your feet are your own, where you go is your freedom." Samuel's answer was very indifferent.
Starlight couldn't help but ask, "Didn't you say before that I made your heart flutter? Just, just letting me go like this, won't you feel regret? Or are you not interested in me at all, and the heart fluttering thing was all fake?"
Starlight's reaction was very strange.
Samuel looked at her with a half-smile until her eyes awkwardly darted away, then he leisurely said, "Things that can be easily lost are not worth regretting."
What did that mean?
Because I didn't want to join The Seven and gave up on the deal, I became something that could be easily lost? Something not worth regretting, and something he didn't care about anymore?
Do you know how much resolve it took for me to come find you?
Do you know how precious and important the things you call easily lost are to me?!
You bastard!
Starlight wasn't a doll without a temper. She didn't dare to lose her temper at Samuel, but that didn't mean she wouldn't get angry.
"I'm going home!" Starlight stopped with a stiff tone.
Samuel waved his hand casually, "Goodbye."
Starlight widened her eyes, watching Samuel, who hadn't stopped at all, walk straight away. She angrily cursed, "Never see you again, you bas—"
The distant Samuel suddenly turned back and glanced at Starlight. Starlight instantly stopped cursing and pretended to hail a cab, looking left and right.
Only when she felt Samuel's gaze disappear did she secretly glance over. Samuel was already gone without a trace.
Anger and grievance, as well as a hint of unwillingness that she herself might not have noticed, made her stomp her foot fiercely.
The ground instantly cracked and caved in.
