The Mutant God in American Comics.

Chapter 128 Death Archon (4K large chapter)

Although they didn't know what Richard was planning, the employees in the network department knew he was not joking after seeing the serious expression on his face.

"Um...Mr. Wesley, is this Vice President Madeline's decision?"

A middle-aged manager in a light blue shirt came up to Richard and asked respectfully.

"No, it's my decision."

Richard said calmly.

"In that case, let me first seek the opinion of Vice President Madeline."

After saying that, the middle-aged supervisor prepared to call Madeline.

However, before he could take out his phone, Richard's voice rang out again.

"If you call, I can guarantee that today will be your last day at the Vought Group."

Although Richard knew why the middle-aged supervisor wanted to seek Madeline's opinion, he did not speak politely to him.

After hearing his words, the middle-aged manager's expression immediately turned ugly.

"I repeat, I don't want to see any videos or comments deleted."

"I've killed 300 people tonight, I wouldn't mind killing a few more."

Richard looked around with a cold tone.

He is serious!
After confirming this, the middle-aged supervisor immediately replied: "No problem, we will go home after get off work."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Internet employees who were busy controlling comments and deleting videos stood up one after another and trotted out of the office area.

Soon, Richard was the only one left in the huge office area.

After driving away all the employees in the Network Department, Richard came to the computer room and used heat rays to melt the optical cables of the Network Department, completely cutting off the network connection of the Network Department.

After doing all this, he used teleportation to return to the luxury suite on the 96th floor of the Super Seven Tower.

The news that he had gone to the network department and driven away all the employees soon reached the ears of President Edgar and Vice President Madeline.

Unlike the employees in the network department, after learning about this, Edgar and Madeline were only confused for a few seconds and then guessed why Richard did this.

Vought Group’s publicity strategy has always been to package superheroes as kind-hearted, law-abiding superhumans.

And now, Richard obviously wants to adopt another publicity strategy.

Although it is not clear why he adopted this extreme propaganda strategy of killing to stop evil.

But after some thought, neither Edgar nor Madeline decided to intervene.

In other words, they hoped that Richard would mess things up so that they could kick him out of the Super Seven.

At this time, they didn't know that Homelander, the captain of the Super Seven, had just been severely taught a lesson by him, and they didn't know that Homelander had chosen to surrender under his death threat.

Without the intervention of the Water Group's Internet department, the video of Richard killing criminals with brutal means spread wildly on the Internet.

Without any suspense, his name immediately occupied the headlines of major websites and news media, and received much more attention than the shareholders' meeting held by Water Group during the day.

While the outside world was crazily discussing and denouncing him, Richard, the instigator, was lying calmly in the bathtub in the bathroom, enjoying the comfortable feeling brought by the bath.

After taking a comfortable hot bath, he stood up from the tub and used the high temperature power of the big flame to evaporate the water droplets on his body.

Then, he returned to the bedroom wrapped in a bath towel.

……

the next day.

9 o'clock in the morning.

Richard came to the exclusive restaurant of the Super Seven Team to enjoy today's breakfast.

Because it is a restaurant exclusively for the Super Seven Team, there are not many people in the restaurant.

To be precise, Richard was the only one who was still having breakfast.

As for Homelander and Queen Maeve, they either had already eaten or had no habit of eating breakfast.

If it were any other time, maybe some people wouldn't have gotten up yet.

But not today.

Because today is the day of the Super Seven’s regular meeting.

If Richard remembered correctly, the meeting time was 10 o'clock sharp.

In other words, he was late.

Although it was time for the regular meeting, he didn't plan to go there right away.

Eating breakfast is more valuable to him than a boring routine meeting.

The restaurant's chef was hired by the Water Group at a high price, but the restaurant's food was not really to Richard's taste.

The restaurant chef prepares a typical American breakfast.

For the likes of Homelander and Queen Maeve, these American breakfasts might taste pretty good.

But for Richard, he still prefers Chinese breakfast.

We must hire a few Chinese chefs!
This thought immediately flashed through Richard's mind.

He had just finished breakfast when Ashley, Madeline's assistant and head of talent and relations, trotted into the restaurant.

"Mr. Wesley, the meeting of the Super Seven has already started. Do you want to go over and join it now?"

Ashley said politely.

"Wait until I finish breakfast."

Richard replied without even looking up.

Although American breakfast was not very much to his taste, the breakfast in the restaurant was not bad.

After hearing his answer, Ashley wanted to say something.

But thinking of the videos she saw last night, she decisively chose to shut up.

Time passes little by little.

More than ten minutes later.

After leisurely drinking the coffee in front of him, Richard used teleportation to leave the restaurant.

In just a moment, he went from the restaurant on the 97th floor to the conference room on the 99th floor.

As soon as he arrived at the meeting room, he saw Homelander, Queen Maeve and others.

Except for him, all other members of the Super Seven are present.

Even the invisible man is now wearing a uniform and sitting in his seat in normal form.

When they saw that he had just come over, Queen Maeve, the Engine, and the Invisible Man immediately showed displeased expressions on their faces.

Xuanse's expression should be similar to theirs now.

However, because he was wearing a black mask, I couldn't see his expression.

Just when Queen Maeve and the others thought that Homelander would give Richard a good warning and ask him to attend meetings on time in the future, Homelander said calmly, "We just mainly discussed the revenue and piracy issues of the previous month."

what?
Queen Maeve and the others looked at Homelander in surprise.

They thought Homelander would be angry about Richard's lateness.

As a result, Homelander not only did not scold or warn Richard not to be late in the future, but also calmly told him what had just been discussed.

Is this still a native of our country?
When did he become so easy to talk to?
Whether it was Queen Maeve, the Engine or the Invisible Man, none of them knew at this moment that Homelander had been severely punished by Richard last night.

They would never have thought that their fellow countrymen, who had always had a bad temper and personality, could be so easy to talk to in private.

After hearing what his homelander said, Richard did not sit down at his seat, but walked slowly to his homelander.

"I prefer this position. You sit there."

Richard said, pointing to the empty seat that belonged to him.

Is he crazy?

If Homelander's performance just now was enough to surprise Queen Maeve and the others, then Richard's words were completely beyond their expectations.

Not only Queen Maeve and the others, but even Starlight, who had just joined the Super Seven, now realized that something was wrong.

Although his name was not written on the seat of the Homelander, it was known without any writing that that was the captain's seat.

However, now, Richard, who had just joined the Super Seven yesterday, asked Homelander to give up his seat in front of everyone.

Unlike the surprised expressions on Queen Maeve and the others' faces, after hearing Richard's words, an angry expression flashed across Homelander's face.

Then, under the gaze of everyone, he stood up and walked towards Richard's seat without saying a word.

After seeing this scene, Queen Maeve and others showed expressions of disbelief and surprise.

What happened?

Why do the people of Homeland listen to Richard so much?
Although Queen Maeve and the others were very curious about this question, neither Richard nor Homelander had any intention of explaining it.

After Homelander left, Richard sat down in the main seat with a calm expression, picked up the document in front of him and took a quick look at it.

Then, he said to Queen Maeve and the others, "Let's continue the meeting."

Although they didn't know what had happened to make the arrogant and self-centered people of their homeland so obedient, Queen Maeve and the others didn't ask any more questions and continued to discuss revenue and combating piracy. Time passed by little by little.

More than half an hour later.

After Queen Maeve and the others finished discussing all the contents of the meeting, Richard said slowly, "Regarding the revenue of the Super Seven Team, I have a new plan."

“From now on, all revenue from the Super Sevens will be pooled together.”

"I want 40% of the revenue, and the six of you can split the remaining 60% equally."

Whether it was old members like Homelander and Queen Maeve, or new member of the Super Seven, Starlight, they all frowned immediately after hearing his words.

All along, the revenue of the Super Seven teams has been calculated separately.

Unless it is a commercial activity that we participate in together, such as a movie or commercial that we shoot together.

However, now, Richard asked to aggregate everyone's revenue together.

More importantly, he alone demands 40% of the Super Seven’s total revenue.

Even Starlight, who had just joined, felt that this distribution model was not appropriate.

As for Queen Maeve and the Engine, there's no need to mention them.

“This distribution is unfair.”

"Why should you take 40% by yourself?"

The locomotive said excitedly.

Although the only person speaking now is the locomotive, it is obvious that Queen Maeve and the Invisible Man have the same idea.

Under their gaze, Richard said slowly, "Even if the six of you were combined, you are no match for me."

"My countryman didn't believe it last night, so I beat him up."

"To be precise, he only lasted less than half a minute in front of me before he passed out."

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not targeting anyone. I'm saying that all six of you are losers."

"I'll give you two choices now."

"The first is to agree to the distribution method I proposed, and the second is that I will kill you now and then recruit obedient new members to join."

"You have ten seconds to think about it."

After saying that, Richard ignored the engine and Queen Maeve and the others, took out the mobile phone of this world from the system space, and searched for his own fame on the Internet.

As he expected, his name has now occupied the hot search headlines of major websites.

Not only that, unlike when he was in the Marvel Universe, almost all the comments and messages accused him of killing innocent people in the name of heroic activities and being a psychopathic serial killer.

In addition to the condemnation from ordinary people, official agencies of the United States have also launched various condemnations against him.

The most eye-catching among them is the congresswoman, or "Afro Girl" Victoria Newman.

Although he was condemned by public opinion, Richard didn't take it to heart at all.

This was not the first time he had experienced a situation where everyone was pointing fingers at him.

He has experienced this in the Marvel Universe.

Although public opinion is a force, it cannot cause any physical harm.

As long as your mind is strong enough or your will is firm enough, you will not lose a single hair even if you are condemned by the whole world.

Soon, ten seconds passed.

Be it Queen Maeve and Starlight, or the Engine, the Invisible Man, and Black, they all remained silent and did not give any response.

At this moment, the voice of the motherland rang out.

"I agree with Richard's distribution plan."

Homelander said, suppressing his anger.

amount……

Queen Maeve and others who had originally planned to oppose Richard with silence quickly made a decision after seeing Homelander's statement.

"I agree."

"agree."

"me too!"

……

Soon, Queen Maeve, Starlight and others agreed to Richard's new plan.

Looking at Queen Maeve and others who chose to agree under the influence of Homelander, Richard nodded with satisfaction.

He didn't kill Homelander last night because of this situation.

Although it wouldn't take much effort to kill Queen Maeve and the others.

But it is still quite troublesome to form a new super seven-man team.

As long as they are obedient, it's okay to keep them.

After all, having them by his side to serve as a foil can further prove his strength.

"Very good, since everyone agrees with the new distribution plan, let's implement it."

"Now let's discuss the second matter."

"I just checked online and almost the entire internet is condemning me for killing innocent people last night."

"Not only that, they gave me a lot of new nicknames."

"For example, Silver Devil, Silver Demon, Silver Grim Reaper, Silver-haired Butcher, Silver-haired Killer, Hell's Executioner, Son of Satan, Killing Angel, Death Archon, Scarlet Hand, Life Reaper, Hell's Messenger, Death Knight..."

“Although they are not very positive nicknames, they are also quite thoughtful.”

"I'm a little tired of the hero codename Silver Angel. Which of these nicknames do you think is more suitable for my new nickname?"

Richard said calmly.

He sincerely asked his fellow countrymen for their opinions.

However, it turns out that asking for their opinions is worse than deciding on your own, because each of them gives different suggestions.

"Forget it, I'll make the decision myself. You can go out now."

Richard said to them.

After hearing his words, Homelander was the first to stand up and leave the meeting room without looking back.

Queen Maeve and the others followed closely and left the meeting room one after another.

Soon, Richard was the only one left in the meeting room.

When they all left, Richard held his phone and thought for a moment.

Finally, decided to pick one at random.

After simply sorting the new nicknames given by netizens, he opened a website for selecting random numbers and got a random number.

The 9th one?

After taking a look at No. 9's nickname, Richard called Ashley.

Soon, the call was connected.

"Notify the marketing department that I want to change my hero code name."

"Death Archon!"

"My hero code name from now on is Archon of Death!"

Richard said to Ashley on the other end of the phone.

Archon of Death?
After hearing his words, Ashley quickly replied: "Okay, I'll contact the head of the marketing and promotion department right away."

Although the code name Archon of Death was not very suitable for a hero code name, Ashley knew that Richard was only informing her of his decision and was not asking for her opinion.

Richard didn't say anything else to Ashley and hung up the phone.

Afterwards, he used teleportation to return to the luxury suite on the 96th floor.

He does not intend to pay attention to the outside criticism.

Or rather, I'm not going to pay attention to it now.

9 pm.

He once again used teleportation to arrive in the Bronx and began the night's heroic activities.

I don’t know if it’s because the punks in this universe are more afraid of death, or maybe they were shocked by his killing spree last night.

Unlike last night, he spent almost an hour in the Bronx and took out more than 30 criminals.

After discovering that crime in the Bronx was not active tonight, he teleported to Queens.
