Even in the world of Black Robe, Yellowstone National Park was one of the Federation's important natural heritage sites.
Yellowstone National Park was located in the central and western part of the Federation, covering an area of 8,000 square kilometers. It was known for its wildlife and natural scenery.
In addition, Yellowstone Park was also famous for its many geothermal activities.
There were spectacular geysers, waterfalls, and other fountains here.
When the helicopter from Seven Tower passed over Yellowstone National Park, the reporters could still see various wild animals such as wolves, bison, and deer moving about in the park.
The vast forests, lakes, and rivers gave Yellowstone National Park its unique geological and natural scenery.
This was a holy land for camping. Every year, regardless of the season, enthusiasts would come here to camp.
At this moment, the helicopter had already passed through the safe zone and was heading toward the virgin forest.
The reporters finally began asking questions.
"Where is Homelander taking us?"
"Ms. Ashley, can't you give us a little information?"
Ashley felt a burst of irritation inside.
She also had no idea where exactly Homelander was taking everyone.
She had already been puzzled when Homelander told her to prepare helicopters yesterday.
Today, he had directly brought the reporters toward Yellowstone National Park, which made her even more confused. Surely he wasn't planning to take everyone to Yellowstone Park for a camping trip?
She could only force a smile and pretend to be mysterious as she said, "I guarantee that Homelander will give everyone a big surprise."
"Everyone, please wait and see."
Only then did the reporters stop asking.
Ashley sighed inwardly. This job was really too difficult.
She looked outside the window.
Right in front of the helicopter, Homelander was flying through the air. From time to time, he looked back, afraid that he was flying too fast and the helicopter wouldn't be able to keep up.
After leaving New York, Homelander had brought the reporters straight to Yellowstone Park.
Today, the President and Soldier Boy were meeting at the Federation's military base in Yellowstone Park.
Homelander had brought these reporters here precisely to have them capture evidence on the spot of the President cooperating with a superhuman criminal.
Originally, with his speed, he should have arrived at the military base long ago.
Unfortunately, today he also had to act as a "guide," so naturally he couldn't fly too fast.
Homelander couldn't help yawning.
This should be the slowest he had flown since crossing over. He was almost getting sleepy.
Fortunately, after passing through the forest, the Federation's military base in Yellowstone Park appeared in Homelander's view.

[Inside the Military Base]
Under the guidance of the base commander, the President arrived at a room.
This room was located deep inside the base and, in theory, could withstand a missile attack, so the President meeting Soldier Boy here was basically completely safe.
Furthermore, to prevent another incident like the Secretary of Defense incident, there were no electronic devices at the scene.
Today's meeting would not appear in any official records either. Even if it was exposed afterward, Rick Archibald would not admit that this meeting had taken place.
Soon, the commander opened the door.
Rick Archibald walked inside and saw Mallory sitting on the sofa, looking through some documents.
Near a wall with a World War II map hanging on it, a man was standing there, staring at the map in a daze.
A shield leaned against the wall at his feet.
"In the winter of 1943, when the Allies attacked the Italian Peninsula, they fell into a desperate situation among the mountains."
While Soldier Boy was staring at the map, a man's voice came from behind him.
He turned around and saw a middle-aged man walking in with a smile.
"The German Field Marshal carefully constructed a 'Gustav Line,' giving the Allies no end of trouble."
"Under such desperate circumstances, the Allied command decided to use their advantage in sea and air power to conduct an amphibious landing at Anzio, north of the 'Gustav Line.'"
Soldier Boy followed his words, "This operation completely caught the German army off guard. The Allies achieved great success in the beach landing and quickly established a foothold."
"But later, the Allies built fortifications on the beach, wasting two days, while Germany disregarded casualties and launched wave after wave of attacks against the Allied forces on the beachhead. In the end, the Allies failed because the disparity in troop numbers was too great."
After he finished speaking, the middle-aged man nodded, "That's right. Now we are going to face a new war."
Mallory stood up and began making introductions.
"Mr. President, this is 'Soldier Boy,' the superhero who was once active on the battlefield and the leader of the 'Payback' team."
"And this is President Rick Archibald."
The President extended his hand, "It's nice to meet you. You may not know this, but I'm a loyal fan of yours. I still have a set of your toys at home. They're limited edition."
Soldier Boy shook the President's hand, "That's my honor."
The President did not let go just like that. He said, "Just as I said earlier, we are now going to face a new war."
Soldier Boy glanced at Mallory, then said, "Homelander?"
"That's right. Him."
Rick Archibald looked deeply at Soldier Boy and said, "Although we have done our best to convey to the outside world the message that 'Homelander is under the Federation's control,' unfortunately, he has long since escaped our control."
"He is a time bomb, and a nuclear bomb at that."
"He could destroy the Federation at any time."
"So when I heard that you were still alive, honestly, for a moment, I sincerely thanked God."
"This must be His will."
"You are the key to resolving the danger."
Looking at the President tightly holding his hand, Soldier Boy said, "Then what do you need me to do?"
"Kill him?"
Rick Archibald nodded, "Kill him."
"Only when he is dead will the Federation be safe."
Soldier Boy narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the President, "Then what do I get?"
"Fame, status, money."
"You will replace Homelander and become the protector of the Federation."
Rick Archibald said solemnly, "I believe you won't be like Homelander."
"Because you are a soldier."
"You will loyally carry out the orders given to you by your superiors, but Homelander won't."
Soldier Boy neither agreed nor disagreed.
The President was about to say something when he suddenly saw a point of light appear at the base of the wall in front of the room.
A golden point of light.
The point of light moved rapidly, crossing the wall of the room.
Then the ceiling was suddenly lifted away like a lid, and the sound of helicopter rotors immediately came from the sky.
At the same time, the sound of camera shutters clicking could be heard.
The President raised his head. The flash dazzled his eyes, and he suddenly realized something. He quickly let go of Soldier Boy's hand.
At this moment, he heard a familiar voice.
"Ladies and gentlemen."
"This is the purpose of today's press conference."
"It is also the reason I asked you to come to Yellowstone Park."
"This is the big news I have given you."
"Our country's President secretly met with a superhuman criminal and conspired to harm me!"
It was Homelander's voice.
In an instant, a huge storm rose in Rick Archibald's heart.
'Why is Homelander here?'
