The Mutant God in American Comics
Chapter 128 Archon of Death (4K chapter)
Although they didn't know what Richard was planning, the network department staff 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 to Richard and asked respectfully.
"No, this is my decision."
Richard said calmly.
"In that case, I will consult Vice President Madeline's opinion first."
After that, the middle-aged manager was ready to call Madeline.
However, before he took out his phone, Richard's voice rang again.
"If you call, I can guarantee that today will be your last day at the Water Group."
Although he knew why the middle-aged manager wanted to consult Madeline's opinion, Richard did not be polite to the middle-aged manager.
After hearing his words, the middle-aged manager's expression immediately became ugly.
"I say again, I don't want to see any videos and comments deleted."
"I have killed 300 people tonight, and I don't mind killing a few more."
Richard looked around with a cold tone.
He was serious!
After confirming this, the middle-aged supervisor immediately replied: "No problem, we will go home after work."
As soon as he finished speaking, the network department employees who were busy controlling comments and deleting videos stood up one by one 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 of the network department, Richard came to the computer room, cast a heat ray, melted the optical cable of the network department, and completely cut off the network connection of the network department.
After doing this, he cast a telepathic transmission back to the luxury suite on the 96th floor of the Super Seven Tower.
The fact that he went to the network department to drive away all the employees soon reached the ears of President Edgar and Vice President Madeline.
Unlike the employees of the network department, after knowing this, Edgar and Madeline only wondered for a few seconds and guessed why Richard did this.
All along, the propaganda strategy of the Water Group has been to package superheroes as kind-hearted, law-abiding superhumans.
And now, Richard obviously wants to adopt another propaganda strategy.
Although it was not clear why he adopted this extreme propaganda strategy of killing to stop evil.
But after thinking about it, Edgar and Madeline did not intend to intervene.
Or, they hoped that Richard would mess things up and then kick him out of the Super Seven.
At this time, they did not know that Homelander, the captain of the Super Seven, had just been severely punished by him, and they did not know that Homelander chose to give in under his death threat.
Without the intervention of the Internet Department of the Water Group, 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 the Water Group during the day.
While the outside world was frantically discussing and denouncing him, Richard, the initiator, lay calmly in the bathtub in the bathroom, enjoying the comfortable feeling brought by the bath.
After taking a comfortable hot bath, he got up and left the bathtub, exerted the high temperature ability of the big flame, and evaporated the water droplets on his body.
Then, he returned to the bedroom wrapped in a bath towel.
…
The next day.
9:00 a.m.
Richard came to the exclusive restaurant of the Super Seven to enjoy today's breakfast.
Because it is a restaurant exclusively for the Super Seven, there are not many people in the restaurant.
To be precise, Richard is the only one who is still eating breakfast.
As for Homelander and Queen Maeve, they either have already eaten or have no habit of eating breakfast.
If it is any other time, there may be people who have not gotten up.
But not today.
Because today is the day of the regular meeting of the Super Seven.
If Richard remembers correctly, the meeting time is 10 o'clock.
In other words, he is late.
Although it is time for the regular meeting, he does not plan to go there immediately.
Compared with the boring routine meeting, eating breakfast is more valuable to him.
The chef of the restaurant was hired by the Water Group at a high price, but the food in the restaurant does not suit Richard's taste.
The chef of the restaurant prepares typical American breakfasts.
For Homelander and Queen Maeve, these American breakfasts may taste good.
But for Richard, he still prefers Chinese breakfast.
We must hire some Chinese chefs!
This thought flashed through Richard's mind immediately.
He had just finished breakfast when Ashley, Madeline's assistant and head of talent and relations, trotted to the restaurant.
"Mr. Wesley, the meeting of the Super Seven has already started. Do you want to go over now?"
Ashley said tactfully.
"I'll talk to you after breakfast."
Richard replied without even raising his head.
Although American breakfast was not very 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 passed little by little.
More than ten minutes later.
After drinking the coffee in front of him leisurely, Richard used teleportation and left the restaurant.
In just an instant, he went from the restaurant on the 97th floor to the conference room on the 99th floor.
As soon as he arrived at the conference room, he saw the Motherland, Queen Maeve and others.
Except for him, the other members of the Super Seven are here.
Even the transparent man is now wearing a uniform and sitting in his seat in his normal form.
After seeing that he had just come over, Queen Maeve, Locomotive, and Transparent Man immediately had displeased expressions on their faces.
Black's expression should be similar to theirs now.
However, because of the black mask, it was impossible to see his expression.
Just when Queen Maeve and others thought that the motherland would give Richard a good warning and ask him to attend meetings on time in the future, the motherland said calmly: "We just discussed the revenue and revenue of the previous month. The problem of piracy.”
What?
Queen Maeve and others looked at the people of the motherland with surprised expressions.
They thought that the people of the motherland would be very angry at Richard's lateness.
As a result, not only did the motherland people not reprimand or warn Richard not to be late in the future, but he also calmly told him what he had just discussed.
Are they still from the motherland?
When did he become so easy to talk to?
No matter it was Queen Maeve, Locomotive or Transparent Man, none of them knew at this time that the people of the motherland were severely punished by Richard last night.
They would never have imagined that a native of the country who has always had a bad temper and character would actually be so nice to talk to in private.
After hearing the words of the motherland, Richard did not come to his seat and sit down, but came to the front of the motherland unhurriedly.
"I prefer this position, sitting there."
Richard pointed to the empty seat that belonged to him and said.
Is he crazy?
If the performance of the motherland just now was enough to surprise Queen Maeve and others, then what Richard said was completely beyond their expectations.
Not only Queen Maeve and others, but also Starlight, who just joined the Super Seven, now realizes something is wrong.
Although his name is not written on the seat of the motherland, you can know without writing it that the seat is the captain's seat.
However, now, Richard, who just joined the Super Seven team yesterday, asked the people of his motherland to give up their seats in front of everyone.
Unlike the unexpected expressions on Queen Maeve's and others' faces, after hearing Richard's words, the faces of the motherland first flashed with angry expressions.
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 the motherland listen to Richard so much?
Although Queen Maeve and others were curious about this question, neither Richard nor the people of the motherland had any idea of explaining it.
After the people from the motherland left, Richard sat down on the main seat with a calm expression, picked up the document in front of him and took a brief look at it.
Then, he said to Queen Maeve and the others: "Let's continue the meeting."
Although they didn't know what happened to make the domineering and self-centered people of the motherland so obedient, Queen Maeve and the others did not ask further questions and continued to discuss revenue and combating piracy.
Time passes little by little.
More than half an hour later.
After Queen Maeve and the others had discussed all the contents of the meeting, Richard said calmly: "I have a new plan regarding the Super Seven's revenue."
“From now on, all Super Seven revenue is rolled together.”
"I want 40% of the revenue, and the six of you will share the remaining 60% equally."
Whether it was the old members such as Motherland and Queen Maeve, or the new member Starlight who joined the Super Seven, they all immediately frowned after hearing his words.
All along, Super Seven's revenue has been calculated on its own account.
Unless it is a commercial event that we participate in together, such as a movie or advertisement that we all shoot together.
However, now, Richard asked that everyone's revenue be summarized together.
More importantly, he alone accounts for 40% of Super Seven's total revenue.
Even Starlight, who had just joined, found this distribution model inappropriate.
As for Queen Maeve and Locomotive, let alone them.
"This distribution is unfair."
"Why do you want to take 40% of it just by yourself?"
The locomotive said with excitement.
Although the only one speaking now was Locomotive, it was obvious that Queen Maeve and Transparent had the same idea.
Under their gaze, Richard said calmly: "The six of you combined are no match for me."
"The people of the motherland didn't believe it last night, so I beat them up."
"To be precise, he only lasted less than half a minute in front of me and then passed out."
"Don't get me wrong, I'm not targeting anyone, I'm saying that all six of you are hot chicks."
"I'll give you two choices now."
"The first is to agree to the distribution method I proposed. The second is to kill you now and recruit obedient new members to join."
"You have ten seconds to think about it."
After saying that, Richard ignored Locomotive and Queen Maeve. He took out this world's mobile phone from the system space and searched for his reputation on the Internet.
As he expected, his name has now occupied the hot search headlines of major websites.
Not only that, unlike in the Marvel Universe, almost all comments and messages accuse him of killing innocent people in the name of heroic activities and being a psychopathic serial killer.
In addition to the condemnation of ordinary people, official agencies in the United States have also launched various condemnations against him.
The most eye-catching one is the congresswoman, or "headshot girl" Victoria Newman.
Although he was condemned by public opinion, Richard didn't take it to heart at all.
This situation of being pointed at by all men is not the first time he has experienced it.
He has experienced it in the Marvel Universe.
Although public opinion is also a force, the power of public opinion cannot cause any physical harm.
As long as the mind is strong enough or the will is firm enough, even if it is condemned by people all over the world, it will not lose a hair.
Soon, ten seconds passed.
Whether it was Queen Maeve and Starlight, or the locomotive, the invisible man, and the black color, they were all silent and did not give any response.
At this moment, the voice of the motherland sounded.
"I agree with Richard's distribution plan."
Homelander said with suppressed anger.
Uh...
Originally, Queen Maeve and others who were planning to oppose Richard with silence soon made a decision after seeing Homelander's statement.
"I agree too."
"Agree."
"Me too!"
...
Soon, Queen Maeve and Starlight and others all 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 he took this situation into consideration.
Although it wouldn't take much effort to kill Queen Maeve and the others.
But it's still quite troublesome to form a brand new super seven-man team.
As long as they are obedient, it's not impossible to keep them.
After all, having them by his side can better prove his strength.
"Very good, since everyone agrees to the new distribution plan, let's implement it according to the new plan."
"Let's discuss the second thing now."
"I just looked online, and almost the entire network is condemning me for killing innocent people last night."
"Not only that, they also gave me a lot of new nicknames."
"For example, Silver Devil, Silver Demon, Silver Death, Silver-haired Butcher, Silver-haired Killer, Hell Executioner, Son of Satan, Killing Angel, Death Archon, Scarlet Hand, Life Reaper, Hell Messenger, Death Knight..."
"Although they are not very positive nicknames, they are also quite thoughtful."
"I am a little tired of the hero code name Silver Angel now. Which of the above nicknames do you think is more suitable for my new nickname?"
Richard said calmly.
He sincerely asked the opinions of the people of his homeland.
However, it turns out that it is better to decide by yourself than to consult their opinions, because each of them gives different suggestions.
"Forget it, I'll decide by myself, you can go out."
Richard said to them.
After hearing his words, Homelander was the first to stand up and leave the conference room without looking back.
Queen Maeve and the others followed closely, leaving the conference room one after another.
Soon, Richard was the only one left in the conference room.
When they all left, Richard thought about it with his phone.
Finally, he decided to pick one randomly.
After simply sorting the new nicknames given by netizens, he opened a website for picking random numbers and got a random number.
The 9th one?
After taking a look at the nickname number 9, Richard called Ashley.
Soon, the call was connected.
"Notify the marketing and promotion department that I want to change a new hero code name."
"Death Archon!"
"My future hero code name is Death Archon!"
Richard said to Ashley on the other end of the phone.
Death Archon?
After hearing his words, Ashley quickly replied: "Okay, I'll contact the head of the marketing department right away."
Although the code name of Death Archon is not very suitable for a hero code name, Ashley knew that Richard was just informing her of his decision, not asking for her opinion.
Richard didn't say anything else to Ashley and hung up the phone directly.
Afterwards, he used teleportation to return to the luxury suite on the 96th floor.
He didn't intend to pay attention to the condemnation from the outside world.
Or rather, he didn't intend to pay attention to it yet.
9 o'clock in the evening.
He used teleportation again to come to the Bronx and started tonight's heroic activities.
I don't know if it's because the gangsters in this universe are more afraid of death, maybe they were shocked by his killing last night.
Unlike last night, he stayed in the Bronx for almost an hour before he killed more than 30 criminals.
After discovering that the criminal activities in the Bronx were not active tonight, he used teleportation to come to Queens.
