Chapter 128 Walter's Transformation The death of Homelander and the series of scandals that followed had a huge impact on Walter. Especially since the mess left by Stormfront has not been completely cleaned up yet, the two things are almost connected at the same time, which makes the impact even greater. As a result, Water's stock price fell, plunging by more than 15%, which is unprecedented since Water was founded. However, Water's stock price involves many stakeholders. In addition, people like Tek Knight and many consortiums have formed a community of interests with Levi in a certain sense. After consulting him and receiving a positive response, they all began to express their support in their own ways. In addition, multiple government departments came out to endorse Water, and more than one powerful figure cheered for Water, claiming that Homelander's evil deeds only represented himself and not all of Water. Hundreds of superheroes across the United States work diligently every day to protect the safety of the American people. They should not be implicated by their own people. Walter has been developing in America for so long, and all kinds of relationships have already become intertwined. No one wants Walter to fall so easily. And they all knew that as long as Walter had so many superheroes under his control, he would not fall because of this matter, so there was no need for them to be the bad guy.
More importantly, Levi, a rapidly rising angel with extraordinary superpowers, is on Walter's side! Walter also said very sincerely that it was because of their poor supervision and being deceived by their fellow countrymen that he caused so much damage and casualties, and they were willing to take responsibility. First of all, all of Homelander’s savings over the years will be used to compensate the victims, and Walter will also give an additional portion. Walter will then set up a charitable foundation specifically for similar events. Naturally, all the major financial groups also got involved. They were very willing to spend a little money to buy fame and the favor of Walter and Levi. Many of Vought's superheroes were not to be outdone and donated generously. For them, this is a rare event. And at this special moment, it doesn’t matter if you donate a small amount, but if you are stingy, then just wait to be on the hot search. There were even many superheroes who took the initiative to stand up and passionately denounced the many bad deeds of the Chinese people in the past. They claimed that they had actually discovered that something was wrong with their people a long time ago, but they were forced to keep silent because of the threats from the other side. The first to be hit was the Lamplighter, who had once been one of the Seven with the Homelander. Many superheroes also said with tears in their eyes that they had suffered all kinds of heinous bullying from their homeland. The other side was proficient in all kinds of special and perverted playing methods, and it was obvious at a glance that they were quite experienced. Who wouldn't want to become famous by stepping on the heads of his countrymen? Anyway, he's already dead, so there's no need to worry about retaliation! And there are not only women among them, but also men, androgynous characters, and even a few superheroes who can transform into animals. After this series of events, the motherland was completely disgraced and would be infamous for eternity after his death. Although many people within Water were quite sad about this, believing that they were witnessing the end of an era. But they will definitely not help to clarify the matter. Instead, they will add fuel to the fire and completely confirm the accusations. Because the worse the Homelanders are, the more innocent Walter appears! On the other hand, Walter was also quite active in promoting the brilliant performances of Levi and Maeve, especially Levi. This time even the Vatican openly stood up to support him.
Many religious sects in America also responded positively, and many of them changed their object of worship to Levi. Watt directly promoted Levi to the leader of the Seven and publicized his many glorious deeds. Edgar and Walter's strategy is straightforward, which is to create Levi, the new god on earth, in order to offset the negative impression brought by Homelander as quickly as possible. But Levi is really too young. He has only been a superhero for a few hundred days, and he hasn't done anything glorious like saving crashed planes or ships. He hasn't been in the news much, so it's really too difficult to brag that he is better than his fellow countrymen. But there are still many talented people in Watt, and soon someone found a way to find another way. Since Levi is an angel, then the ones he normally fights must be demons! So they made up a lot of stories about angels slaying demons, but no one could verify them anyway. And because it was related to demons, magic, and myths, it didn't matter if the story was a little exaggerated. When Levi saw these stories, even though he felt that he was not thin-skinned, he was still a little embarrassed. According to the above statement, he started saving America since he was a child. If it weren't for him, the earth would probably have been destroyed several times. It is precisely because he has so many experiences in saving the world that he has been able to hone such powerful strength. But he has always been very low-key and has not made these things public. He just wants to protect the whole world silently. He didn't have many special achievements before, because ordinary people couldn't see them at all! It wasn't until he dealt with Homelander and Soldier Boy that he was forced to use some previously unrevealed powers, and Walter discovered this part of the truth. How should I put it? It's quite outrageous, but Americans just love it. They were willing to support Kennedy, who claimed that his brain was eaten by bugs, because he talked about a lot of conspiracy theories about aliens. The information that Watt has released now is many times more exciting than what Kennedy said! Therefore, once the news was spread, it was enthusiastically welcomed by a large number of people, and for a time it almost overwhelmed the negative impact brought by the people from the motherland. The number of Levi's fans on the entire network skyrocketed to tens of millions in a very short period of time, and is still increasing every moment. His support rate among the people also rose rapidly, and he soon became the most popular superhero in America. In contrast, Maeve, who also made great contributions, did not seem to benefit much from it. Firstly, she was a participant and witness of the plane crash. Although she was not an accomplice, she was forced to conceal the truth. Secondly, Walter did not try hard to whitewash her. This was mainly her own idea. She wanted to know the true attitude of the American people towards her. Fortunately, based on her many good performances in the past and the brutality of her countrymen, most people have great sympathy for her and believe that the blame does not lie with her. She can basically be considered to have atonement for her sins. Her support rate dropped slightly by a few percentage points, but it didn't matter. Instead, she gained a lot of loyal fans who were all moved by the love between Maeve and Irina. At the same time, the story of how Levi persuaded Maeve to turn from evil to good began to circulate on the Internet. For Maeve herself, this is already a very good result. Seeing this, Watt naturally mobilized more manpower and increased the number of staff, striving to complete the information in many aspects in the shortest time possible.
And also launched a series of movies, TV series, animations and peripheral toys related to Levi. As long as this information is spread widely enough and enough people agree with it, the story will become a fact! Walter had done similar things many times in the past, but this was the first time he had done it in such a mysterious way and on such a large scale. But when Edgar revealed a little bit of the information about the other world that Levi knew, all the members of the board of directors unanimously agreed that since Levi wanted to become a god, then let him become a god! Walter's development in America has almost reached its limit, so Madeline had tried every means to get superheroes to join the army. But now Levi has a passage to a new world and is willing to share it with them, so what are they hesitating about? Even if it requires them to pay a certain price, it is still too easy to make the choice, okay? After laying some groundwork, Walter formally held a press conference, claiming that taking into account the various negligence and carelessness that are inevitable when ordinary people supervise the superheroes, Walter decided to divide the overall affairs into two. The part related to medicine is still under the charge of Edgar, and it has been reorganized and renamed Water Pharmaceuticals, which is specifically responsible for the additional products obtained by Water in the process of developing and improving Compound No. 5. By the way, I continued to work part-time as a superhero in secret. The other part of the Super Hero affairs was reorganized and renamed Water Super Hero Group, and the first president was naturally the popular Levi. Although related projects, personnel, interpersonal relationships, etc. cannot be completely cut off so quickly, everyone in Watt fully supports this matter, and completion is only a matter of time. At the same time, all relevant information, processes, equipment, etc. of all versions of Compound No. 5 were also fully disclosed to Levi. As soon as the news was made public, Water's stock began to soar. Not only did it quickly recover the previous losses, but it also continued to climb higher. For a moment, all stakeholders inside and outside Water were thriving, and no one cared much about the death of their fellow countrymen. (End of this chapter)
