Chapter 130 Starlight with Refreshed Perspectives (4K Large Chapter)

Madeleine's "accidental" death was an out-and-out good thing for Edgar.

The day after Madeleine's death, he convened the board of directors and recommended a new candidate for vice president.

Daenerys Ayala!

Richard was not impressed at all by the vice president recommended by Edgar.

He originally thought that Edgar would be like the Chinese in the TV series, making Ashley, who was Madeline's assistant, a puppet vice president who could only follow orders.

But it turned out that Edgar did not do this.

Although he had no impression of Daenerys Ayala at all, Richard didn't take it to heart at all.

Whoever takes over as vice president will have no impact on his plans.

Not to mention Daenerys, who has never appeared in the TV series, even if Edgar appoints Storm, the wife of the founder of Walter Group, as his vice president, it will not be able to influence him.

Compared with Daenerys becoming the vice president, Richard is more concerned about another thing now.

That is, the black-robed picket team in this universe is established just like in the TV series.

"Butcher" Butcher found Huey, whose girlfriend was killed by a locomotive, and successfully persuaded Huey to join the black-robed pickets against the Vought Group and the Super Seven.

Not only that, Frankie and Breastmilk were also persuaded by Butcher to join the black robe pickets.

The only difference from the TV series is that Butcher did not ask Huey to install bugs in the Super Seven conference room.

It's not that he doesn't want to, it's that he doesn't have such a chance.

Upon discovering that Butcher had approached Huey, Richard asked Locomotive to hold a press conference and issue an apology in public.

Although the locomotive was not willing to do this, he finally obeyed Richard's instructions.

Richard didn't do anything to the locomotive, but told him bluntly that if he didn't obey, he would be kicked out of the Super Seven team because he already had a heart disease, and he told people outside that he was not executing the plan at that time. Task.

In order to keep his position in the Super Seven, Locomotive could only obey Richard's arrangements.

In addition to asking Locomotive to issue an apology in public, Richard also warned Transparent Man to stop wandering around the Super Seven Tower like a perverted peeping tom.

Although the Transparent Man did not sneak into the luxurious suite where he lived, he habitually stayed in the women's bathroom and watched Starlight or other female employees of the Walter Group go to the bathroom.

But Richard didn't like his obscene behavior very much.

He can understand that men are lustful.

But he couldn't stand it like the Transparent Man was peeping everywhere like a perverted peeping tom.

If it weren't for the fact that Transparent Man did have some exploitable value, he would have kicked Transparent Man out of the Super Seven without a word.

Super Sevens meeting room.

A large crew is busy setting up sets and cameras.

Three days ago, the Vought Group officially announced Daenerys as the vice president of the group, taking over from Madeleine to handle all matters related to the Super Seven.

Although Richard doesn't mind Daenerys being the vice president and handling all affairs of the Super Seven on the surface.

But at noon on Daenerys' first day in office, he found Daenerys and had a friendly conversation with her.

He didn't talk much with Daenerys, just briefly about taking control of the Super Seven and the selection of the new captain.

After the motherland killed Madeleine, Richard did not continue to arrange other things for the motherland, but only told him that he planned to officially take over as the captain of the Super Seven.

Regarding his decision, the people of the motherland did not say anything.

In other words, even if he was extremely unhappy, there was nothing he could do.

With far less strength than Richard and a mentality like a giant baby, he could do nothing but secretly get angry and vent in private.

Although he didn't know if the people of the motherland used other ways to vent their dissatisfaction, Richard was sure of one thing, that is, the people of the motherland who had lost their mentality would now go out alone from time to time to stage the famous scene of the crescent moon clashing in the sky.

After the staff in the conference room set up the scene and the camera, Richard, who was wearing a black trench coat, and the motherland people began to shoot a promotional video for the handover of the new and old captains of the Super Seven according to the lines designed by the public relations department.

Richard originally did not intend to shoot such a promotional video that had no practical significance, but after listening to the explanation from the head of the public relations department, he finally agreed to shoot the promotional video.

It’s not for anything else, just because shooting promotional videos can better increase your visibility.

For more than two decades, the title of captain of the Super Seven has been firmly bound to the people of the motherland.

In other words, the title of captain of the Super Sevens is an important part of the fame of the natives.

Shooting a promotional video for the handover of the new and old captains can transfer the attention and fame originally gathered on the people of the motherland to him.

In front of the huge floor-to-ceiling windows of the conference room, the motherland people looked at the Empire State Building, which was only a few hundred meters away from the Vought Group. They used their superb acting skills and said with emotion: "In the past twenty years, I have been serving as the superintendent. The captain of the Seven has witnessed one superhero after another joining or leaving the Super Seven."

"Every time I say goodbye to them, I think about when a new person will emerge to take over the captaincy from me."

"After waiting for so many years, I finally got it."

At this point, a "real" smile of relief appeared on the face of the motherland. He turned to look at Richard and continued, "Times are different, and I am getting older."

"This is a new era for you young people, and I belong to the previous era. It is time to hand over the position of captain to a younger newcomer."

"Richard, I believe you can do better than me, and I also believe that the Super Seven will create a more brilliant future under your leadership."

"The Super Seven will be handed over to you!"

After saying that, the motherland patted Richard's shoulder seriously, with an expression that everything will be entrusted to you in the future.

Although he was unwilling in his heart, he had to say that the motherland, who had been trained as the face of the group since he was a child, did have very superb acting skills.

Even if he didn't have any superpowers, he could make a name for himself in Hollywood with his acting skills and appearance alone.

"No, motherland, you can't just leave us like this. I have just joined the Super Seven for a short time. I don't have as much experience as you. The Super Seven still needs you."

Like the motherland, Richard also began to show off his acting skills.

Although he was not trained by professionals like Homelander, his acting skills were not much inferior to Homelander.

After hearing his words, Homelander smiled and said, "I'm not old enough to retire directly."

"Don't worry, as long as I can still fight crime and protect the lives and property of citizens, I will stay in the Super Seven and contribute my strength."

"Of course, all this requires your consent, Captain."

"I can't think of any reason for me to refuse!"

After that, Richard and Homelander stretched out their right hands at the same time, shook hands, and hugged briefly.

"Very good! Perfect! One pass!"

After a few seconds, the voice of the promotional video director sounded, and he applauded first.

After the director demonstrated, the other staff in the conference room also applauded happily.

Unlike them, at the moment the sound rang, Richard and Homelander separated at the fastest speed, as if the other party had some deadly virus.

"Don't forget to post the promotional video on your social account."

Richard said to Homelander.

"I won't forget."

Homelander replied quickly.

After hearing the answer from Homelander, Richard said nothing more, and directly used teleportation to leave the conference room and return to the luxury suite on the 96th floor.

A few hours later, the Vought Group released a promotional video of the handover between the new and old captains of the Super Seven, and purchased hot searches on various social media and news websites.

At the same time, various water armies that had been arranged early in the morning began to leave comments online to guide the direction of public opinion.

Without any surprise, Richard and Homelander soon became the headlines of major social media and search engines.

Richard ignored the release of the promotional video online, but browsed the information of Soldier Boy in the study.

As he knew, Soldier Boy was the first superhero in the United States and the captain of the former superhero team Blood Debt Blood Payback.

In the mission in Nicaragua, the professionalism of "Blood Debt Blood Payback", which was almost zero, was defeated by the Soviet army that suddenly appeared, and Soldier Boy was also captured by the Soviet army and his whereabouts were unknown.

Of course, it was another matter in the propaganda of the outside world.

The Vought Group, which was not particularly mature at the time, arranged a heroic ending for the Soldier Boy, allowing the Soldier Boy to exit the public's sight as a hero who died in battle.

Richard is now looking at the internal information of the Vought Group and the US military.

The internal information of the Vought Group was given by Edgar.

As for the internal information of the military, it was provided by "Headshot Girl" Victoria Newman.

Although they did not hide anything, as he guessed, neither the Vought Group nor the US military knew where the Soldier Boy was held by the Soviet army.

After reading the information in his hand, Richard summoned a golden flame to burn the documents in his hand.

From the outside world's point of view, the Soldier Boy died a long time ago.

But he knew that the Soldier Boy was not only alive, but also used as a guinea pig for the Soviet Union's experiment and was locked up in a secret laboratory.

Although the Soldier Boy's strength was not stronger than that of the motherland and could not pose any threat to him, he still felt that he needed to pay attention to the intelligence of the Soldier Boy.

In other words, he was thinking about whether to regard the Soldier Boy as a "super villain" to improve his reputation.

In terms of style and character, Soldier Boy is not a super villain, but just a scumbag with super powers.

But this does not mean that he cannot become a so-called super villain.

With simple packaging and publicity, Soldier Boy, who was originally the first superhero in the United States, can be turned into a super villain who does all kinds of evil.

After a brief thought, Richard decided not to attack Soldier Boy for the time being.

Now he does need to improve his reputation, but he does not think he needs to go to Russia in person to rescue Soldier Boy.

If Butcher and Huey can rescue Soldier Boy, it will not be too late to package Soldier Boy as a super villain.

As for now, there is no need to waste too many decisions on Soldier Boy.

After making the decision, Richard temporarily put the soldier boy behind his mind, left his suite, and came to the door of the Starlight Suite.

Although he could also use teleportation directly, he did not intend to do so.

After arriving at the door of the Starlight Suite, he pressed the doorbell.

Ding Dong!

The doorbell rang immediately.

In a few seconds, Starlight, wearing a sexy new uniform, appeared in front of him.

Although Starlight's appearance and figure have not changed much, as the saying goes, people rely on clothes and Buddha relies on gold.

After changing into a new uniform that looks like a one-piece swimsuit and making her long golden hair into big waves, Starlight's image immediately changed from youthful and energetic to sexy and charming.

"Are you ready?"

Richard asked Starlight, who showed off her strong cleavage and round legs.

"Ready!"

Starlight replied immediately.

Although she didn't like the new uniform at all, she didn't dare to disobey Richard's orders directly.

After getting along for this period of time, she found that although Richard was not as righteous as she imagined, he was not as bad as a scumbag.

Speaking of this, we have to mention the nightclub that is open to superhumans.

In order to let Starlight know the true face of superheroes, a few days after joining the Super Seven, Richard took her to a superhuman nightclub to let her see the true face of superheroes in private.

That night, it was not only Starlight who was enlightened, but he himself was also enlightened.

Although he has many superpowers, he usually only uses them for business.

The superhumans in this world have developed their superpowers in completely different ways.

After seeing the true face of the superheroes packaged by the Vought Group, Starlight's worldview was directly refreshed.

Not only that, she even had the idea of ​​quitting the Super Seven directly and becoming an ordinary person from then on.

However, Richard quickly persuaded her to give up this idea.

The superheroes packaged by the Vought Group are indeed unworthy of the title of heroes, but this does not mean that all superhumans are scum.

Whether it is ordinary people or superhumans, there will be good people and bad people.

Richard told her directly that he would not stay in the Super Seven for long.

After he left the Super Seven, he hoped that Starlight could take over from her as the new captain of the Super Seven, so that the Super Seven could be transformed from a superhero team that was not worthy of its name into a real superhero team.

Although he didn't know why Richard said that, Starlight, who had little life experience, was quickly convinced by him.

Not only that, that night, after Starlight returned to the Super Seven Tower, she took the initiative to come to Richard's suite and had a fierce debate with Richard on the origin of life.

After hearing Starlight's answer, Richard went straight forward and hugged her slender waist, performing telepathy.

In just a moment, they came from the Super Seven Tower to Brooklyn.

Transmitted to the gate of a warehouse in Brooklyn, Richard said to Starlight: "There is a group of robbers who just robbed a jewelry store in the warehouse. Fight crime in your way."

Starlight nodded, came directly to the gate of the warehouse, and performed her own superpowers.
