The Mutant God in American Comics.

If there is any difference, it is that the US dollars he has are counterfeit currency in a sense.

Because the version number above is not in the official registration sequence of the United States in this universe.

But this is not a big problem.

Not to mention that ordinary people can't tell there's anything wrong with the version number on the US dollar bill, even bank staff can't tell it.

After all, the US dollar version of the Marvel Universe also uses the same rules and design methods.

Unless someone specifically investigates whether the above version number is in the official registration sequence.

Otherwise, no one would be able to discover that he was using "fake money" from another universe.

Although he can freely use the US dollars stored in the system space, he can only use this cash now.

His ID and bank card cannot be used in this world.

However, this is not a problem for him.

Coming to the roadside, he hailed a taxi. Richard opened the back door and got in. He said to the driver, "Let's go to the nearest five-star hotel."

"Okay, sir!"

The middle-aged driver, who was in his forties and had a typical Indian appearance, responded immediately.

In less than ten minutes, the driver took him to his destination.

Turning his head to look at the hotel next door, Richard took out $50 from the system space and handed it to the driver.

Then, he opened the car door, got out and walked straight into the hotel.

Although his ID and bank card could not be used in this world, he completed the check-in procedures without much effort.

With just a simple display of telepathy, the receptionist in uniform with a big golden wave helped him check in with a smile on her face and handed him the room card of the presidential suite with both hands.

In addition to the room card, the blonde receptionist also handed over a small note with a phone number and name on it.

Caitlin!

After taking a look at the name on the note, Richard said nothing and walked towards the elevator with the room card.

……

time flies.

In the blink of an eye, a week has passed.

This past week, Richard went to the Super Seven Tower again and met with Edgar.

To be precise, he met with Edgar, the president of Water Group, Madeline, the vice president, Ashley, the assistant vice president and head of talent and relations, and the head of the public relations department.

Although Edgar introduced him to Vice President Madeline and others, he did not tell Madeline and others that he was threatened, but instead arranged an identity for him as a distant relative.

Richard didn't say anything about the identity arranged by Edgar.

Although Vice President Madeline and others had some doubts about Deep Sea's death and Richard's joining the Super Seven, they still began to promote and package Richard at Edgar's strong request.

The Vought Group is indeed a company that specializes in operating the "superhero business".

Although Richard's origins were unknown and he had never appeared in public before, with the promotion and packaging of the Vought Group, in just a few days, Richard went from an unknown person to a new superhero "Silver Angel".

The code name Silver Angel was decided by Richard himself.

He didn't like any of the code names given to him by the Vought Group, so he used one of the code names given to him by the fanatical fans of the Marvel Universe, "Silver Angel".

Although this code name is not particularly domineering, the public relations and announcement department of the Water Group still used the code name "Silver Angel" as he requested.

In addition to the code name, he also directly rejected the superhero uniform designed for him by the Vought Group's public relations and publicity department.

He did not deny that the uniforms were designed by a group of professionals.

But compared to the uniforms designed by these people, he still prefers Sephiroth's uniform.

In front of Edgar, Madeline and others, he directly activated the magic power in his body and changed his casual clothes into the same black windbreaker with silver shoulder armor as Sephiroth.

After seeing the black windbreaker he transformed into, Edgar, Madeline, Ashley and others all showed surprised expressions.

Although the "superheroes" of this universe also wear uniforms that match their own image and positioning, their uniforms are made of normal materials.

Not only have they seen a uniform like Richard's that was transformed directly by magic, even in the Marvel Universe, not many people have seen it.

While the Water Group was busy using the "Silver Angel" to promote Richard, the Water Group also began promoting Deep Sea's "retirement".

Although Shen Hai did not retire but died, it was not a good decision to directly announce to the public that Shen Hai died inexplicably in the Super Seven-Man Tower.

In order not to affect the stock price of Water Group, the public relations department of Water Group arranged a seemingly reasonable reason for "retirement" for Shenhai.

Deep Sea, the lord of the seven seas, decides to temporarily withdraw from the Super Seven and focus his energy on the increasingly serious ocean pollution.

Although this reason seems a bit ridiculous, it is consistent with Deep Sea’s previous publicity strategy and public image, and is also consistent with the current environmental political correctness in the United States.

Not only ordinary people outside were surprised by Deepsea's sudden decision to quit the Super Seven, but even Homelander, Queen Maeve, the Invisible Man, and Locomotive were also surprised.

However, they soon put the matter behind them after knowing that someone would take over Deep Sea's position.

Deep Ocean is indeed an official member of the Super Seven.

But the relationship between them is not as good as ordinary people imagine.

Not only that, from a certain perspective, they also have a certain competitive relationship.

When the population does not change much, public attention and support are limited.

If one hero's support is higher, the support of other heroes will definitely decrease.

No superhero can have the support of everyone.

Not to mention superheroes, even God can't do it.

In addition to public support, there is also competition among members of the Super Seven within the Vought Group.

The resources of the Water Group are limited, and it is impossible to arrange the same publicity efforts for everyone.

In order to gain more publicity, in addition to the support of the public, the support of the top management of the Water Group is also needed.

In this regard, Homelander has always been the undisputed number one in the Super Seven.

Unlike the other members of the Super Seven, Homelander is a "superhero" specially customized by the Vought Group.

Before Homelander was born, the Water Group had made a series of subsequent arrangements.

For example, how to fictionalize his life, how to make people like him, how to make him a leader among superheroes, etc.

When Richard went to the Super Seven Tower for the first time, he did not see Homelander.

However, when the public relations and announcement department of the Water Group was shooting posters and promotional videos for him, he successfully met Homelander.

Maybe it's because they are afraid of him, or maybe it's for some other reason.

Vice President Madeline specially brought Homelander to the studio.

Ostensibly, Vice President Madeline was here to check on the progress of the PR and publicity departments.

But Richard knew that Madeline brought Homelander here on purpose as a demonstration of some kind.

Madeline is just the vice president of the Water Group.

From the perspective of the company's management hierarchy, she is a subordinate to President Edgar.

Although she didn't know Richard's true origins, she was sure of one thing: Richard was not on her side.

Not only that, Edgar rarely personally intervened in the affairs of the Super Seven, and even used his authority as president to let Richard take over the vacancy left by Shen Hai, which gave her an instinctive sense of crisis.

In terms of position, she is indeed inferior to Edgar and is Edgar's subordinate.

But she is not a woman without ambition.

Replacing Edgar and becoming the new president of Water Group has always been one of her goals.

Although it was a very difficult thing to do, she didn't feel that she had no chance at all.

In other words, as long as her countrymen still love her, she has the opportunity to replace Edgar.

If Richard had not appeared, she would have followed her original plan and gradually expanded her power and influence within the group.

When the time is right, she will replace Edgar as the new president of the Water Group with the support of her homelander.

However, the appearance of Richard made her feel a strong sense of crisis.

She didn't know how strong Richard was, but she knew Edgar very well.

Simply put, if Richard was as unworthy of his reputation as Deep Sea, Edgar would never have allowed Richard to join the Super Seven.

Without sufficient strength, Richard would not be able to play any role even if he joined the Super Seven, let alone replace Homelander as the captain of the Super Seven.

Although Richard's specific strength is unclear, in Madeline's opinion, even if he is a chess piece specially arranged by Edgar, he will never be a match for his countrymen.

So, when the public relations and publicity departments were shooting posters and promotional videos for Richard, she deliberately brought Homelander to the studio, and decided to let Homelander give Richard a little warning.

Chapter 125: First Seeing the Starlight (4K Large Chapter)

Super seven-man tower.

Photo studio on the 35th floor.

The photographer of Vought Group is shooting the latest promotional poster of Richard who is wearing the same black windbreaker as Sephiroth.

Although Richard's external publicity has just begun, promotional materials must be prepared in advance.

In addition to various promotional posters and short films, the marketing and promotion department of the Water Group also developed a series of follow-up promotion plans for him.

These include but are not limited to participating in interviews, guest appearances in superhero movies currently being filmed, shooting personal promotional videos, planning hero events, etc.

From a personal perspective, Richard doesn't really like this kind of marketing promotion that's similar to that of celebrity artists.

But in order to complete this world challenge and become the most well-known superhero in the universe, he needs to participate in these marketing promotion activities even if he doesn't like it very much.

Otherwise, even if he saves people all over the world, he won't be able to become a household name superhero in a short period of time, let alone become the most famous superhero.

After shooting the latest set of promotional posters and magazine cover posters, Madeline and Homelander, vice presidents of the Water Group, who had been in the studio for a while, walked towards him with professional smiles on their faces.

“Are you used to filming?”

Vice President Madeline asked Richard with a smile on her face.

"good."

Richard replied casually.

Although he was answering Madeleine, his eyes were not on Madeleine, who was already a middle-aged woman, but on his fellow countryman.

Whether in appearance or clothing, the people of his motherland were exactly the same as he remembered.

In addition, the motherland also has that carefully trained professional smile on his face, which does not represent his true thoughts at all.

"I heard from Ashley that you were shooting your latest poster here, so I brought Homelander over to meet you."

"Even though you're not teammates yet, it never hurts to get to know each other in advance."

Madeline continued.

As soon as she finished speaking, the voice of the Homelander rang out.

"What is your relationship with Edgar?"

"Why did he arrange for you to join the Super Seven?"

Although there was still a smile on his face, the motherland's tone was not as friendly as his facial expression.

If it were anyone else, they would definitely answer all the questions from their motherland in detail.

But it was clear that Richard was no one else.

He didn't take the threat in Homelander's tone seriously at all, and said casually: "If you are so curious about this question, why don't you ask Edgar directly?"

After hearing Richard's answer, the smile on Homelander's face immediately disappeared. He looked at him with a cold expression, and his eyes flashed a faint red light.

Heat rays, huh?

I have it too!

After seeing Homelander's eyes glowing red, Richard also used his heat ray power and his eyes glowed the same red.
