Homelander: New Legacy

[24] : Unlocking Bio-Force Field

After explaining the situation to the passengers in the cabin, Roger received both good news and bad news.

The good news was that there was indeed someone among the passengers who knew how to fly a plane.

The bad news was that this person was a student who only had theoretical knowledge and had never actually flown a plane before.

Regardless, Roger had no choice but to work with what he had. After all, they only needed someone who could control the plane's stopping and landing; Roger would handle everything else.

Bringing this novice pilot to the cockpit, Roger found that Maeve had already established contact with the control tower. Seeing Roger bring someone in, she asked:

"Are we letting him fly the plane now?"

"We have no other choice! Have him try to slow down the plane, and I'll attempt to lift it from below!"

Roger shouted to Maeve.

Homelander's strength was immense, and lifting a plane wasn't a problem. The only concern was that, unlike Superman, Homelander didn't have a bio-field. When lifting the plane, under its enormous weight, Roger could easily pierce through the middle of the aircraft.

However, for now, this was their only option. If it didn't work... well, they'd have done their best and left the rest to fate.

Having agreed on their roles with Maeve, she took out the oxygen mask from the cockpit for the civilian, then moved the two corpses sitting in the pilot seats and sat in the co-pilot's seat herself.

Seeing this, Roger took a deep breath, turned, and walked out of the cabin. He addressed the worried crowd outside:

"Everyone, please stay calm. I promise I'll do everything in my power to save you all. You'll be fine, so no matter what happens next, I hope you can remain calm!"

Roger's reassurance was effective. People believed Homelander would save them because that was the image he portrayed on screen.

They viewed Homelander as a god-like figure, an angel sent by God to save them. So when Roger reassured them, the passengers in the cabin were no longer nervous. Some even cheered for Roger.

"Homelander! You can do it!!!"

"You're the best! You'll definitely succeed! Go for it!!"

These people were blindly optimistic, seemingly believing that Homelander would certainly save them.

The passengers' trust weighed heavily on Roger's heart, but he didn't let this show on his face. Instead, he continued smiling as he opened the cabin door and flew out again.

However, the moment he closed the door, the smile vanished from Roger's face. He moved beneath the plane, flying close to it, his expression grim as he tried to place his hands on the bottom of the fuselage.

At first, there was no reaction, but when Roger applied a little force, trying to lift the entire plane, the metal of the fuselage immediately dented inward!

Seeing this, Roger didn't apply more force and quickly stopped his action.

"Shit!"

Cursing anxiously, Roger already felt the plane starting to tilt forward, gradually descending. It seemed that the novice in the cockpit and Maeve had taken control of the plane.

It looked like Roger might not need to try to hold up the plane after all.

But just as Roger was thinking this, he noticed the plane's forward tilt becoming steeper and steeper. At this rate, it wouldn't be long before the plane crashed into the sea.
