Under the gaze of the three, including Punk Spider-Man, who were almost dropping their jaws, Deimos, who seemed like a powerful monster in their eyes, was now spinning rapidly like a top.
That massive body was knocked high into the air, then spun and crashed to the ground, instantly collapsing a still-intact building in the distance.
Silence...
The scene suddenly fell into an eerie silence.
The electric guitar in Punk Spider-Man's hand slipped and fell to the ground unconsciously.
Otto Parker's pupils shook violently, deep wariness and complexity surfacing in his eyes.
As for Number One Good Neighbor, he was now the textbook definition of "dumbfounded."
Only Gwen, looking at Peter standing there with a nonchalant expression, as calm as if he had just swatted a small bug, couldn't help but let the corners of her mouth curl up.
It really has been... a long time since I've seen a scene like this~
"Boom!"
In the silence, someone pushed aside the ruins in the distance.
Deimos stood up unsteadily from the pile of rubble, half of his cheek swollen high with a bright red handprint clearly visible.
But he didn't feel fear or pain because of it; instead... he became increasingly excited!
"To actually make me feel pain, it's true! You are the 'Other' we've been looking for!"
With that, he charged at Peter again.
This time, he didn't even manage to get close to Peter.
Peter raised his leg and kicked out a Tempest Kick, sending him flying back even faster than he had come.
"Again!"
His chest dripping with blood, Deimos still showed no fear, continuing to charge recklessly.
And Peter, perhaps truly bored, didn't think of just crushing him to death right away.
Instead, he toyed with the guy over and over.
On one hand, he was truly unfamiliar with the existence of the Inheritor Family and wanted to gather more information.
On the other hand, he also wanted to see if an elder would jump out right after he finished beating the younger one, allowing him to solve the problem once and for all.
Being slapped away, kicked away, having his chest collapsed by a punch, his knee shattered by a kick...
Even though the speed at which he flew backward was faster than Meituan Delivery, Deimos remained tireless.
Just like a Soulslike player whose "masochistic" soul had been deeply stimulated by Hidetaka Miyazaki.
Flying back time and again, yet running back every time, delusional enough to think he could speedrun Peter, the big boss, in one life.
Finally, after being knocked away by Peter for the umpteenth time, Deimos, who could only crawl forward, stopped.
He panted heavily, his body covered in scars, but his eyes were frighteningly bright.
He lost.
He lost completely, with no power to fight back.
But there was no sign of defeat on his face; instead, he looked excited.
Lying on the ground, looking at Peter's face, he crowed triumphantly:
"I've remembered your scent... 'Other'!"
"I can't beat you, but it doesn't matter! My mission is complete!"
Deimos's voice was full of frantic joy and vicious curses.
Then, Deimos's form suddenly changed.
His scarred body began to swell visibly, like an inflated balloon, instantly tearing his clothes apart.
An aura of destruction emanated from him.
Clearly... he had detonated the power of the spider totems he had absorbed!
He wanted to use his sacrifice to cause some trouble for Peter!
"Not good! Retreat!" Otto Parker's expression changed drastically as he shouted urgently.
Gwen's expression also changed. Without a second thought, she covered herself in the symbiote suit, then shot out webs, pulling Number One Good Neighbor and Punk Spider-Man, who didn't have time to escape, to her side.
"There's no need for such trouble."
While the others were in a panic, Peter's voice drifted over casually.
He casually tapped the little broken watch, and a blinding golden light suddenly erupted from him.
Then, with a flick of his wrist, a high wall made entirely of ice blocked the path in front of everyone.
Boom!
An earth-shattering energy storm erupted instantly with Deimos's body as the core.
Behind him, Otto Parker and the others felt the terrifying intensity of the energy and couldn't help but tremble with worry.
And Peter just stood in front of everyone, maintaining the ice wall's output with an easy expression.
Who knows how much time passed.
The terrifying energy storm gradually subsided.
The scene was a mess; nearly half of the abandoned city had been turned to dust in this self-destruction.
But the ice barrier in front of Peter only showed a few fine cracks.
Gwen and the others protected within the barrier were completely unharmed.
As Peter casually removed the ice barrier, Otto Parker and the others, though survivors, had extremely grim expressions.
The opponent was simply too powerful.
They felt they couldn't help at all.
What frustrated them even more was that with Deimos's self-destruction, even the idea of studying his body to gain more information had vanished like a dream.
"It's tough. If every one of them chooses to self-destruct when they die, how long will it take us to figure out their weaknesses and background?"
Otto Parker clutched his head, his face full of irritation.
the other two didn't speak, but they had similar reactions.
While everyone was feeling gloomy, Peter's voice rang out once more:
"Who says information can't be obtained from a self-destruction?"
As he spoke, Peter crouched down and picked up a piece of Deimos's flesh from the ruins.
He pointed his finger at the piece of flesh, and in the next second, a soft white light appeared in his palm.
horse talisman, activate!
As the horse talisman took effect, before long, Deimos's body appeared perfectly intact before everyone.
After flashing a smile at the stunned Otto Parker and the others, Peter turned the dial of the little broken watch again, instantly switching to Symbiote mode.
Black Symbiote slime enveloped Deimos's remains.
Following that, a massive amount of information flooded into Peter's mind like a tide.
Those were Deimos's memories—his entire life from birth to death, his knowledge of the family, information on all members of the Inheritor Family, and the plan he had formed in his mind to deal with Peter—all were acquired by Peter!
Father, Solus.
Eldest brother, Morlun.
And other siblings...
And their headquarters—Universe 001.
In that World completely dominated by them, there was a massive Cloning Factory.
This factory had only one purpose: mass-producing their clones.
Once a family member died, a clone would be released immediately, achieving rebirth in another sense through a Blood-red Crystal that stored memories.
"No wonder he self-destructed so decisively; it turns out they can respawn at the fountain!"
After sighing like this, Peter casually flicked his finger, and a golden flame landed on the body, burning it completely clean.
"Let's go," Peter looked back at the stunned Otto Parker and the others:
"It's story time. Let me give you all a good rundown on the Inheritor family."
