Setting up the meeting with Thundermind was quite easy. A simple telepathic message saying 'K2 '
Mei used her Lantern's Energy Twin to appear above the Himalayan peak, as the Chinese hero appeared a second later, bristling with power and magic.
"Lady Wu, you must return to Beijing with me." Thundermind spoke with a sad voice, then stopped and scanned the energy twin with wide eyes. "You have become a Lantern?"
"If you truly want my power for the Communist Party, I know another Ms Wu that I can give my old power to. I will even give you the list of all the party officials and PLA officers that used me over the years. They will be quite happy to use your Ms Wu for this, as she's ever prettier than I was. Agreed?" Mei asked with a cold voice, and holding a notebook in hand.
The heroes eyes narrowed into a point, showing anger. "Is that a threat?"
"Of course not. You will take Ms Wu to Beijing yourself, and offer her as a heroic sacrifice. It's a necessary power for the Chinese people, the Mother of Champions. She will endure, maybe even grow to like it. It's what the August General told me, after all." Mei answered with a casual tone, then opened her notebook towards the flying Buddha.
"Forget you ever heard of Ms Wu, and I will forget I met you today. Those week-long soldiers are not worth my time." Thundermind growled while averting his eyes from the death list.
"Oh, and what about the other 'heroes' ? That robot listens to any order, unlike you. As for the two Tienanmen legends, they would send their own mothers for this task. What will they do if they find out?" Mei asked in an easy voice, then closed her notebook with a snap, then stored it into her own pocket dimension.
"You have a plan." Thundermind realized with a calm voice. He really was a Buddha, with all the relevant powers too.
"I want to turn the robot into a true hero. Make him fight criminals and corruption, not work for them. The other two...they will burn in Hell. Sorry, they already do. You can keep the archer and the physician, and even your Ms Wu. As long as my heroic robot is fine." Mei added with a shrug, then dispersed the Energy Twin to stare at the dead Chinese 'heroes' at my feet.
Same place as Major Force died, on the Mercury's hot side towards the Sun. Not many people could live here, where titanium flowed like water due to the heat.
"They won't come back, right?" Mei asked me in a cold voice.
"Of course not, my dear. If I can kill a cosmic entity, I can deal with a pair of murderous humans with small powers." I answered with a grin.
"Good. Now the Shaolin Robot." Mei demanded in a lighter voice.
I teleported us to the Lazarus Island, where Ra's Al Ghul was painting the Chinese robot with Lazarus resin.
While the Shaolin_Robot was an ancient automaton imbued with an old engineer's insights and priorities, the Chinese government had upgraded it with Durlan tech, including a computer core, advanced weapons, and extreme durability. It just did not have self-repair until now, thus it required constant maintenance by the engineers at the Great Wall base.
"I am alive now?" the robot asked with a surprised voice.
Mei touched it with her Lantern Ring, and smiled. "If you can think and feel, and even heal yourself, then you must be alive. I used to be your team-mate in the Great Ten."
"I recall everything Lady Wu Mei-Xin, you had a sad fate as the Mother of Champions. I'm glad you escaped." the robot offered with a compassionate voice.

"I spoke with Thundermind just now. You can be a true hero for China, and go after any criminals or corrupt officials. Maybe even child traffickers and sugar peddlers. They already forbid such poisonous food in America these days, at least for children." Mei said in a friendly voice.
"I will strive to become the best living robot in the world, Mei. And thank you again for this gift." the robot answered with a bow.
"You need a name. Maybe Ark. Ark Han. Do you like it?" Mei asked with a tear in her eye.
"I love it. It is MY name after all. And now, Justice awaits!" the living robot proclaimed just as Ra's teleported him right in the middle of a child trafficker ring in Hong Kong.
The new sentient robot hero took a single look around, and began dismembering the criminals with a dozen flying energy swords. They had a harsher kind of Justice in Ancient China.
Mei hugged Ra's with a sob. "Please visit Venus soon, Ra's. I'll make it worth your time." she promised with a hot voice, then vanished.
Ra's looked at me, then back at the resin pool. "We do have hundreds of robots we captured from the Extermists, plus the androids. They won't be as fancy like the Shaolin guy, but they don't need to be, to dismantle our enemies. Humans are fragile..."
I just shrugged. "I have work on Venus." I explained casually and teleported away.
Talking to myself was too weird.
Ra's looked up, where the invisible Ghost Fox was sitting on the ceiling. "Satisfied, little fox?"
"I like the name. Ark Han. A.H. Mei has good taste." the sneaky fox woman whispered and floated in Ra's arms. "I guess I have to fuck your brains out now." she added with a wry foxy grin.
"You always do. But take a shower first. You're reeking of blood and death." Ra's grumbled and summoned a warm shower to wash the strange woman.
"Miaaw?" the jade lion statue cried and ran away from the water, like a real feline.
"Oh, the big bad Assassin Master is scared of some blood?" Ghost Fox asked in a teasing voice, while shedding her green suit and showcasing her bouncy assets.
"No. But I can't taste you properly if you're covered in a dozen men's blood. Damn murderous fox..." Ra's muttered as he took turns eating her wet breasts.
The fox woman floated upside down, and gulped Ra's dick whole, while offering her wet pussy in exchange. Ra's grinned and dove right in. Save one, and keep another as his fucktoy. Maybe he could visit that dimension of hers and recruit more Ghost Women? Or at least fuck their brains out...
He came hard just thinking about it, but didn't stop. His Ghost needed 6 more rounds of Apple Juice today, to grow as fast as she could. While six Ypocs read more files and data from the Oa database, the seventh magic clone took care of managing client expectations, sorting out kill contracts, and deciding when to kill the target, the buyer or both. Most of times it was both. The world was full of bad people, and their money would be useful too.
As for Mei, while she was a decent lay, the kids drove him nuts. If the Lantern body could take it, that was great. He got tired after raising 200 kids, someone else could take turns after.
"Zara, come suck my balls" he demanded from the new villain recruit.
As always, the villain girl lit her mouth on fire as she gulped his balls, helping him train the durability of his last weakness. Soon enough, he will be able to bathe inside the Sun, but not yet. The pain was still bothering him a little, and Zara served him fine. Especially when her pussy caught fire, with his dick inside.
The other bodies didn't know what they were missing. This girl is on fire!
