Chapter 640
Although everyone is on the same side now, they all have an extraordinary relationship with Su Quan after all.
It's fine when other people are around or when discussing serious matters, but it can be a little awkward when chatting alone.
Looking at the composed and natural Madelyn, Queen Maeve could only say that experience counts.
"I originally had two options: one was a termite that could shrink, and the other was Blindspot with Super Hearing."
"Their abilities and identities can make the Seven's audience more diverse, allowing you to attract more fans and support."
"But now..."
Madelyn sighed and asked, "Do you think Su Quan will restore Homelander's abilities?"
Queen Maeve said, "Yes, but not now."
"I think so too."
Madelyn nodded and said, "If Homelander cannot regain his superpowers in the short term, then the newly joined members of the Seven cannot be too weak, and their abilities must overlap with Homelander's."
"This way we will have a valid reason to keep Homelander out of the public eye for the time being."
In this case, termites and Blindspot are not suitable, as they each have their own unique abilities but cannot replace Homelander.
After much thought, Madelyn decided to go back and talk to the Queen of Thunder.
The Queen of Thunder can fly and unleash lightning, although it is not as powerful as Homelander's Heat Vision, but her female identity makes it easier to gain support and recognition.
Moreover, with Queen of Thunder and Queen Maeve, plus Starlight, it's easy to design a compelling and marketable love triangle story with these three female superheroes.
More importantly, the Queen of Thunder won't steal Homelander's thunder. In fact, once Homelander's superpowers are restored, she can even orchestrate a melodramatic love-hate relationship between the two.
Just like Queen Maeve and Homelander back then...
As for the Great Miracle and Jupiter Jack, their abilities may meet the requirements, but in other aspects they are far inferior to the Queen of Thunder.
Let's talk about pairing up characters. Queen Maeve and Starlight might not agree, and even if they did, there's still Su Quan...
Each new member of the Seven is a feast of profits, and from the company's perspective, it is natural to hope to maximize profits.
If the requirements are met, naturally, whoever is more likely to make money for the company, and whoever can make more money for the company, will be selected.
"Call out--"
The sound of something cutting through the air rang out.
Su Quan walked over to Madelyn and Queen Maeve with a smile.
"Can you restore Homelander's superpowers right away?" Madelyn asked.
Su Quan patted her on the shoulder, stood behind her and said with a light laugh, "I know about your concerns and worries. This is indeed a crisis."
"But..."
"A crisis brings not only danger, but also opportunity."
Madelyn frowned and asked, "What opportunity?"
Su Quan smiled and said, "Whether it's Edgar or any other Superman, their primary target is me!"
"If I lose, it's all over, but what if I win..."
Su Quan looked down at Madelyn, who seemed to be deep in thought, and explained calmly, "The ability to eliminate superpowers is very important to Edgar. He won't act rashly until he fails, or until he has absolute certainty, let alone attack you."
"Most likely, he will compromise, try to please me, and do everything he can to cooperate with me. At the very least, he will try to keep me in check to prevent me from eliminating other people's superpowers."
Madelyn hummed in agreement and said, "But he will never let you go given the chance."
"So what?"
Su Quan shrugged indifferently. "Kill me? Bury me? Kill me? None of that will work! Any conspiracy, trickery, or cunning schemes are just a joke in the face of absolute power."
"Madelyn, why do you only appease Homelander and not everyone else?"
"Because the Homelander are very powerful, even the most powerful."
"Besides coaxing him and using gentle persuasion, you have no other choice!"
"Queen Maeve, why do you have to submit to him even though you hate him?"
"Because no matter what you do, you can't find a way to kill him or defeat him."
"There's nothing we can do but endure, we have no other choice but to endure!"
Madelyn and Queen Maeve looked rather grim, but they had to admit that this was the truth.
"Besides eliminating superpowers, the strength I've shown so far is just the tip of the iceberg. Even if I don't eliminate Homelander's abilities, a hundred, a thousand, or even ten thousand Homelander together couldn't defeat me!"
"Let me tell you a secret!"
Su Quan deliberately lowered his voice, and after Madelyn and Queen Maeve's curiosity was piqued, he chuckled and said, "I can be resurrected, truly resurrected!"
"It can not only revive itself, but also revive others."
Madelyn and Queen Maeve were immediately shocked.
Can you revive yourself and then revive others?
Are you God?
Madelyn looked up, about to speak, but Su Quan pressed her head down and twisted it with a snap.
Madelyn's eyes widened instantly.
Queen Maeve's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.
"You... you killed her?" Queen Maeve murmured.
Su Quan smiled without saying a word and quietly resurrected Madelyn using the Phoenix Force.
"Call..."
Madelyn opened her eyes and instinctively tried to stand up, but Su Quan pressed her down.
"Huff... huff... huff..."
Madelyn trembled slightly in fear, gasping for breath. After a long while, she blinked hard, her mind returning to normal, and stared incredulously at Queen Maeve was equally incredulous before her.
"I... I died... and then I came back to life?"
Queen Maeve nodded subconsciously, then looked at Su Quan.
Madelyn also looked at Su Quan.
Their expressions changed from shock to excitement.
Su Quan really can revive other people!
What does this mean?
This means that even if they die, Su Quan can resurrect them.
This means that as long as they stand firmly on Su Quan's side, they are essentially given an extra life, or even more lives!
Wealth, power, popularity, status.
What can compare to life?
"You're right! A crisis is both a danger and an opportunity!"
"As long as you remain invincible, Edgar will have no choice but to compromise. Once he compromises, we can take over!"
Madelyn's voice was filled with barely suppressed excitement!
"Bang bang bang!"
The sudden knocking calmed the excited Madelyn down, and she responded calmly.
"Come in."
The door was pushed open from the outside, and a short-haired woman wearing a dark purple bodysuit and a cape walked in with a smile.
"Ms. Madelyn, I am Storm, and from now on I am a new member of the Seven."
Madelyn frowned slightly and asked with a fake smile, "Who informed you that you've joined the Seven?"
Storm's lips curled into a slight smile, "President Edgar."
He emphasized the word "President" slightly, as if he was deliberately stressing something!
Ms. Madelyn.
President Edgar.
You can tell from the way she's addressed that this Storm is Edgar's woman, and... she's up to no good.
Madelyn is the vice president and the company's executive, but a vice president is a vice president. If the president, Edgar, forces her to take her place, can she refuse?
The fact that the other party unilaterally added Storm to the Seven without even a word was clearly a deliberate attempt to put me in a bad position.
Storm replaced the Translucent death was kept secret, and his body was secretly disposed of by Madelyn's men.
Clearly, Edgar was using Storm's joining the Seven to remind himself that he was the true president of Vought International!
If you don't tell me about the Translucent, I won't tell you about Storm joining the Seven.
But I'm asking you about the Translucent.
