The Mutant God in American Comics.

He did not place all the pieces on the board, only the two kings and the black knight.

As for the other chess pieces, they all flew to the side under his control.

Finally, the chessboard with only two kings and the black knight on it quietly fell in front of Professor X's tombstone.

"This is a draw. I won't let you win again."

After saying that, Magneto bowed deeply in front of Professor X's tombstone.

After doing this, he put on the mind-isolating helmet again and turned to stand in front of Richard.

"Looking for a place to chat?"

Magneto said to Richard.

"it is good!"

Although he could roughly guess what Magneto wanted to talk to him, Richard did not refuse.

After hearing Richard's answer, Magneto took the lead in using his superpowers to fly up and flew towards the forest next to the manor.

Richard also mastered the superpower of manipulating magnetic fields, but he did not use this superpower. Instead, he used the flying power he had plundered from Filippo Todd, the Minister of Mutant Affairs.

Soon, the two of them came to the forest.

After landing in an open space in the forest, Magneto said to Richard: "Charles and I thought that Jean Grey would be the best candidate to lead the mutant community in the future."

"Now it seems that we were all wrong."

"For what I said at the last press conference, I would like to apologize to you here. I borrowed your name to incite others to resist without even saying hello to you."

After saying that, Magneto looked at Richard solemnly, ready to bow to him and apologize.

Before Magneto could bow and apologize, Richard stopped him and said slowly: "Just don't let it happen again next time."

"Don't worry, there will never be a next time."

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Are you really not going to become the leader of the pack?"

"With your current strength and reputation, as long as you stand up, more than half of the mutants will respond to your call."

Magneto said quickly.

"No matter how many times you ask, my answer will be the same."

"I have no interest in becoming the leader of mutants. I just want to live my own life."

Richard replied.

"Well, since you're not interested, forget it."

"If you have time, come to the Brotherhood's headquarters. Wanda and Pietro both want to meet you."

Magneto continued.

"I'll go there when I have time."

Richard replied.

After hearing his answer, Magneto nodded, used his superpowers to create a magnetic force field, and left without looking back.

Teleportation!

When Magneto left, Richard also used teleportation to return to Les-Les.

After returning to the car, he immediately used his superpower to control the magnetic field, allowing the Rolls-Royce to drive towards the Silver Manor as if it had an unmanned driving function.

Three days after Professor X's funeral.

Richard saw a report in the news about the Department of Mutant Affairs and the US military attacking a mutant school.

Although they had made various preparations, they gained nothing from this attack.

Because before they launched the attack, the X-Men got the news in advance and quietly evacuated all the students.

Not only that, Cyclops and Wolverine also emptied the entire underground base.

For example, the various information and data accumulated by the X-Men over the years, brain wave enhancement machines, various equipment in the laboratory, etc.

Richard had no idea where Cyclops and Wolverine had gone.

He has been focusing on something else lately.

Ghost Rider!

To be precise, Ghost Rider appeared in New York!

……

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 91: Spirit of Vengeance, Thunderbolt's Provocation

Richard did not see Ghost Rider in person.

He just saw a few videos related to Ghost Rider on the Internet.

Although these videos were not long and some of them were blurry, they were enough for him to be sure that the guy in the video was Ghost Rider.

The only thing he is not sure about now is which generation of Ghost Rider appeared in New York.

The Ghost Rider in the video is riding a ghost motorcycle wrapped in hellfire.

But this was not enough for him to confirm the other party's identity.

Because except for the fourth-generation Ghost Rider who drives a Ghost version of a retro muscle car and the prehistoric Ghost Rider who rides a Ghost Mammoth, the first, second, and third generations of Ghost Rider all ride Ghost motorcycles.

If these videos were clearer, Richard could further determine which generation of Ghost Rider this was.

But unfortunately, these videos uploaded to the Internet, like UFO videos, are very blurry. Only the general outline can be seen, and it is impossible to see the details clearly.

Although there is no way to determine which generation of Ghost Rider appeared in New York, and he also doesn't know what the purpose of this Ghost Rider's coming to New York is, Richard is not worried that the other party will cause trouble for him.

A few months ago, he might have been a little worried.

After all, Ghost Rider has been granted immortality by the Spirit of Vengeance, making him almost impossible to kill.

Now, even if he was targeted by the Ghost Rider, he would not have any worries.

Not only that, he was even looking forward to fighting Ghost Rider.

Besides wanting to see if he could kill Ghost Rider, there was another very important reason why he wanted to fight Ghost Rider.

He wants to plunder the power of the Spirit of Vengeance!

Speaking of this, we have to talk about the plunder that has been upgraded to Omega level.

[Plunder: Omega-level superpower, the extraordinary ability to plunder the lives killed by one's own hands! 】

The explanation of the system is brief as always.

On the surface, the upgrade to Omega-level Plunder is no different than before.

But in fact, the changes in plunder are extraordinary.

Before the upgrade, you can only plunder the X-gene superpowers of mutants you have killed yourself.

And now, as long as it is a life killed by him, no matter it is a mutant, an Inhuman, or any other life, he can plunder the other party's extraordinary abilities.

This means that if he kills the Spirit of Vengeance that possesses Ghost Rider, he can plunder the Spirit of Vengeance's extraordinary abilities.

Before traveling through time, Richard had read some Ghost Rider comics and knew that the Spirit of Vengeance was created by God in heaven and possessed the characteristics of immortality. Only the God who created the Spirit of Vengeance could destroy it.

But he does not completely agree with this statement.

In other words, he didn't think that he had absolutely no way of killing the spirit of vengeance.

If this were the DC universe, then he really had no way to kill the spirit of vengeance created by God.

But this is not the DC Universe, but the Marvel Universe.

The God in the Marvel Universe is not nearly as powerful as the God in the DC Universe.

Although the comics do not explain in detail what level of existence God is, based on the existing information, the God of the Marvel Universe is at most a single universe level, and most likely just a father figure like Odin.

In addition to the fact that the God of the Marvel Universe is not as powerful as the God of the DC Universe, there is another reason why Richard feels he can kill the Spirit of Vengeance.

That is, he knew that the current spirits of vengeance were the second batch of spirits of vengeance created by God 6000 years ago, known as "living weapons."

As for the first generation, the original spirits of vengeance, they all died in the battle with the elemental demon lord Zatanos.

To be more precise, the original spirit of vengeance "sealed" the elemental demon lord Zatanos at the cost of his own life.

Let’s talk about the second batch of vengeful spirits known as “living weapons”.

The second batch of vengeful spirits have the ability to devour their own kind and improve themselves, so the surviving vengeful spirits now have devoured a large number of their own kind to improve themselves.

This means that it is not accurate to say that only God can destroy the spirit of vengeance.

If nothing else, the Spirit of Vengeance possesses the ability to kill and devour its own kind.

Although Richard still doesn't know what method can be used to kill the Spirit of Vengeance, one thing is certain, that is, the energy possessed by the Spirit of Vengeance is not infinite.

As long as all the energy of the Spirit of Vengeance is exhausted, if nothing unexpected happens, the Spirit of Vengeance can be killed.

Silver Manor.

The training ground behind the main building.

Richard was carrying out his daily training, working hard to improve his proficiency in Eight Swords Flash and Dimension Slash.

Although Eight Swords Flash and Dimension Slash were only upgraded to level 4 not long ago, it is impossible for them to be upgraded to level 5 in a short period of time.

But as the old saying goes, a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step; a river is formed by the accumulation of small streams.

Even if it is impossible to upgrade to level 5 in a short period of time, as long as you persist in training and continuously improve your skill proficiency, you will be able to upgrade one day.

Richard has plenty of patience for this.

Time passes little by little.

Before we know it, night will fall.

After training tirelessly for an entire afternoon in the training ground, Richard put the authentic sword back into the system space, undoing the deformation of his clothes, and turning the same clothes as Sephiroth's into normal casual wear.

After doing all this, he used teleportation and returned to the bedroom in the main building.

After taking off his clothes with the help of the White Queen, he took the White Queen to the bathroom, where he took a bath while enjoying the White Queen's "massage" service.

After staying in the bathroom for nearly an hour, he carried the limp White Queen back to the bedroom.

After putting the White Queen on the bed, he said to her, "I'm going out to attend a charity dinner later. You don't have to wait for me to come back. Go to bed first."

"Are you going alone, or are you taking Clarice with you?"

the White Queen asked quickly.

"I'll go alone."

Richard replied.

After hearing his answer, the White Queen said nothing more and nodded.

Under the gaze of the White Queen, Richard took out a custom-made suit handmade by a master from the closet and put it on.

With his wealth skyrocketing, he is now living more and more like a degenerate capitalist.

If there is any difference, it is that he did not focus his main energy on making money like other decadent capitalists, but instead focused on improving his strength.

Money is just a number to him.

As long as he still has strong power, money is not a problem at all.

Soon, he got dressed and went to the garage alone.

After taking a look at the twenty or so luxury cars parked in the garage, he came to a 1957 antique car.

Aston Martin DB Mark III!

From a performance perspective, no antique car, no matter how good its condition, is as good as a modern model.

But for Richard, who is already a billionaire, performance and cost-effectiveness are not something he needs to consider.

He paid a high price for this Aston Martin DB Mark III in extremely good condition for the simple reason that he had seen Bruce driving this car in the movie Batman v Superman.

Not only that, Bruce happened to drive this car to the dinner party hosted by Luther.
