The Mutant God in American Comics

After standing on the stage and reading the script written by the public relations department, the locomotive raised his right hand towards the entrance and said passionately:

"Although the lamplighter and the deep sea have withdrawn from the Super Seven, the glory of the Super Seven will not end here."

"Now, I solemnly introduce to you the new members of the Super Seven, Richard, the 'Silver Angel', and Annie, 'Starlight'!"

As the locomotive spoke, the circular spotlight moved from him to the entrance of the stage.

Under the gaze of the crowd, Richard, wearing a black windbreaker, and Starlight, wearing a white and gold uniform, walked out of the entrance one after another, came to the front of the locomotive, and waved to the shareholders and reporters below the stage.

Richard didn't like this kind of show, but in order to complete this world challenge, he could only follow the marketing plan formulated by the Water Group.

Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to complete this world challenge before the end of the challenge time limit.

After waving to the audience, Richard and Starlight picked up the microphone in their hands and greeted the audience according to the words on the teleprompter.

Whether it was the speech of the locomotive or the two of them, the public relations department of the Water Group had prepared it early in the morning.

All they had to do was to speak out the contents of the teleprompter.

After finishing the speech prepared by the public relations department, there was nothing for the two of them to do.

Under the leadership of the locomotive, they came to the 99th floor of the top floor of the Super Seven Tower.

As the facade and signboard of the Water Group, the members of the Super Seven Team all live in the Super Seven Tower.

The 99th floor of the Super Seven Tower and the following floors are their living areas and workplaces.

As for the management of the Water Group, such as President Edgar and Vice President Madeline, their offices are on the 82nd floor of the Super Seven Tower.

Soon, the three of them came to the conference room on the 99th floor.

Because the Deep Sea had been killed by Richard in advance, the person who introduced the Super Seven Team to them became the locomotive.

Although they are the next teammates, Locomotive is not particularly interested in Richard and Starlight.

Or, if it weren't for Vice President Madeline's arrangement, he would not be interested in being Richard and Starlight's guide.

After bringing them to the conference room, the locomotive said to them: "This is where we usually hold meetings and discuss important matters. We have two World View 4 satellites in orbit around the earth, which can clearly read the license plate number of the fleeing vehicle at an altitude of more than 600 kilometers."

"The crime data collected and analyzed by the intelligence department will also be shared on these screens."

"But these data are useless. Whether to go out to stop them requires joint analysis by the crime analysis department, public relations department, and marketing promotion department."

"The most important thing is that the joint action of the Super Seven Team requires the nod of the motherland."

At this point, the locomotive paused and pointed to the two seats farthest from the main seat and said: "These two seats were originally Deep Sea and Lighter, and now they belong to you. You decide where to sit."

"If there is anything you don't understand, don't ask me, go find Ashley."

After that, without waiting for Richard and Starlight to answer, the locomotive turned and walked towards the door of the conference room.

Then, it disappeared from their sight.

When the locomotive left, Richard came to the huge French window of the conference room, looked at the Empire State Building a few streets away, and briefly looked at the night view of Manhattan.

"Well... nice to meet you, you can just call me Annie."

Starlight came to Richard's side, stretched out his right hand, and said politely.

"Well, you can also call me Richard or Wesley."

Richard shook hands with Starlight and replied.

"Are you from New York?"

Starlight continued to ask.

"No."

Richard shook his head.

"Then which city did you work in before?"

Starlight continued to ask.

Although she had never heard of Richard's name before, when she took the elevator to the 99th floor, she used her mobile phone to search for Richard's information.

Then, she did not find any hero activities related to Richard.

There is indeed a lot of information about Richard on the Internet now.

But this information is all publicity and news produced by the public relations and marketing departments of the Water Group, and there is nothing particularly valuable.

The only useful information in it is the introduction of some of Richard's superpowers.

"I haven't done any hero activities in any city."

"To be precise, I've only been in New York for half a month."

Richard turned his head to look at Starlight, and looked at Starlight casually.

In terms of appearance and figure, Starlight's appearance and figure are not particularly bad.

But it's not so good that it can overwhelm the whole country.

To put it in a more figurative way, her appearance and figure meet the average level of Hollywood female stars.

Although she is not a beauty that can overwhelm the whole country, among the female heroes in this universe, Starlight's appearance and figure are already first-class.

Other female heroes, including Queen Maeve, are not as charming as Starlight.

After discovering that Richard's eyes were looking back and forth on her body without any concealment, Starlight frowned slightly.

Her first impression of Richard was not very bad.

But she still didn't like Richard's current look.

She is 23 years old this year and has tasted the forbidden fruit. She knows very well what Richard's eyes mean now.

Although she doesn't particularly like Richard's current look, she still keeps a kind smile on her face and doesn't express her dissatisfaction in her heart.

Just when she was about to continue to say something, the closed door of the conference room was opened, and Homelander and Queen Maeve walked in one after another.

After seeing Homelander and Queen Maeve, Xingguang first showed an expression of surprise.

Then, she looked at Homelander and Queen Maeve with excitement.

Like other young people in the United States, Homelander and Queen Maeve are also idols she admires.

She has participated in various superhero auditions since she was a child. On the one hand, it was her mother's request, and on the other hand, she was brainwashed by the overwhelming propaganda of the Vought Group and regarded Homelander and Queen Maeve as idols.

Although she didn't reach the level of a fanatical fan, she inevitably became excited after seeing Homelander and Queen Maeve.

Unlike Starlight, who was full of excitement, Richard's expression did not change after seeing Homelander and Queen Maeve. He was as calm as ever.

After coming in front of the two of them, Homelander showed the professional smile that he had practiced since childhood and now became instinctive, and said to them: "Welcome to the Super Seven."

"It's my honor!"

Starlight replied immediately.

Richard did not speak, but just nodded.

After seeing Richard just nod in response, Homelander, who didn't like him at first, disliked him even more.

However, Homelander did not show his dissatisfaction in his heart, and continued: "Starlight, you haven't seen your room yet, Maeve, take Starlight to visit, I have something to talk to Silver Angel."

Although Homelander's tone was very calm and there was a smile on his face, Queen Maeve, who knew very well who he was, immediately had a bad premonition.

After thinking for a few seconds, Queen Maeve said: "Okay, Starlight, follow me."

After that, she turned and walked towards the door of the conference room.

After seeing Queen Maeve leave, Starlight immediately followed.

When only himself and Richard were left in the conference room, the smile on Homelander's face immediately disappeared, and he said to Richard with a serious face: "Boy, I don't know why Edgar insisted on arranging you to join the Super Seven."

"But don't blame me for not reminding you, if you damage the reputation of the Super Seven, even if you are Edgar's man, I will drive you away."

Drive me away?

Hearing Homelander's threat, Richard shook his head with disdain.

Although Homelander has strength far beyond ordinary people, equivalent to a weakened version of Superman, Edgar's evaluation of him is very accurate, that is, Homelander is just a giant baby with powerful strength.

Even though Homelander is now in his forties, he is still an out-and-out giant baby.

"Since you've said that, I won't beat around the bush with you."

"First, you don't have the strength to drive me away. To be precise, you can't even hurt me."

"Second, if you keep a low profile in front of me, you can continue to be the captain of the Super Seven for a while."

"Otherwise, you will become the third person to quit the Super Seven after the Lighter and the Deep Sea."

Richard looked at Homelander calmly and said slowly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Homelander's voice rang out.

"Arrogant!"

Homelander's eyes flashed red, and he looked like he would emit heat rays at any time.

"It's not me who is arrogant, it's you who is ignorant!"

"Since you don't believe it, I'll let you experience it."

As soon as the voice fell, Richard came behind Homelander like a ghost and grabbed his shoulder.

Telepathy!

Without any hesitation, he immediately performed telepathy and took Homelander out of the Super Seven Tower and came to the sky above the forest where he demonstrated his superpowers in front of Edgar last time.

After performing teleportation, he exerted a little force on his right hand and threw the Homelander out.

In just a blink of an eye, the Homelander was thrown hundreds of meters away by him.

He did not continue to attack the Homelander, but let the Homelander regain his balance.

When the Homelander floated in the air, staring at him angrily, he continued:

"As long as you can hold on for one minute, I will immediately quit the Super Seven."

One minute?

After hearing Richard's words, the anger on the Homelander's face became more obvious.

"I'll give you this sentence back. If you can hold on for one minute, I will also..."

Before the Homelander finished speaking, Richard performed teleportation again and came to the Homelander in an instant.

Heat ray!

Two red high-temperature heat rays shot out from his eyes like lasers and instantly hit the Homelander's chest.

Although he has many superpowers, Richard does not intend to use too many superpowers to bully the Homelander now.

Compared with ordinary people, the Homelander's reaction speed is indeed very fast.

But unfortunately, the person attacking him now is Richard.

The moment Richard's heat ray hit his chest, Homelander's expression became somewhat ugly.

Although he had not been injured by Richard's heat ray yet, he had already determined one thing, that is, Richard's heat ray was hotter than his.

The heat ray with an astonishing temperature instantly melted his uniform on his chest.

At the same time, he felt a high temperature that he had never felt before.

How could this be possible?

An expression of disbelief appeared on Homelander's face.

Although heat rays were not his exclusive superpower, they were not common.

More importantly, at this time, he experienced the severe pain of being burned by high-temperature heat rays.

Although he didn't know why Richard had heat rays with a higher temperature than his own, Homelander quickly calmed down.

He immediately used his flying ability to try to avoid Richard's heat ray attack.

However, he had just flown less than one meter when Richard's heat ray hit him again.

This time, the heat ray fired by Richard hit his back, completely burning his American flag cloak and the uniform on his back.

In just a few seconds, his uniform became tattered and the whole person looked extremely embarrassed.

Homelander, who had never experienced such a thing, immediately ignited an irrepressible anger in his heart.

Kill him!

He must be killed!

As soon as this thought came to Homelander's mind, Richard came in front of him and hit his chest with his right fist like a cannonball.

Bang!

The dull sound of the blow sounded like a war drum!

Homelander didn't have time to do anything before being knocked hundreds of meters away by Richard.

The severe pain in his chest made Homelander's already strong killing intent even stronger.

However, he didn't have the opportunity to vent his strong killing intent now.

Because as he flew backwards, Richard flew across the sky like lightning and came to him again.

Richard didn't give Homelander a chance to stabilize his body and regain his balance. He clasped his fists and hit Homelander's chest hard.

Bang!

Homelander, who was originally flying backwards, fell rapidly towards the forest that had long been in ruins like a meteorite, and hit heavily in the huge deep pit he had created before.

After knocking Homelander into the deep pit, Richard did not give Homelander a chance to get up. He flew in front of Homelander like lightning and stepped on Homelander's chest with his right foot.

"It's only been less than ten seconds now, you still need to work hard!"

After saying that, Richard raised his right foot and stomped hard, stepping Homelander into the mud.

Puff!

Homelander, whose chest was hit three times in a row, spurted out a mouthful of blood uncontrollably.

At the moment when Homelander spurted out blood, Richard mobilized his magic power to block the blood spurted out by Homelander.

Then, he grabbed Homelander's neck with his right hand and lifted him up.

"There are still fifty seconds, I hope you can hold on."

After saying that, Richard let go of Homelander's neck, and his fists kept swinging out like bullets fired by a Gatling gun, hitting Homelander crazily.

In order to prevent Homelander from being knocked out by himself, Richard used his super power of material manipulation to fix Homelander in the air like a sandbag.

Mudamudamudamudamudamudamuda…

Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang…

The dull beating sound like a war drum continued to sound, playing an alternative percussion music in the empty pit.

Although Richard did not exert his full strength, Homelander still could not hold out for long in front of him.

Less than half a minute later, Homelander passed out in his violent beating.
