Puchi!
Karn clearly agreed with Peter's words. Therefore, he didn't waste even a single word of nonsense with this brother. Instead, he straightforwardly plunged the energy harpoon in his hand straight into Jennix's mouth, which was still continuously opening and closing.
As Jennix emitted a muffled cry of agony, and as Karn rotated the harpoon expressionlessly, that head—which looked glamorous but was actually so ugly it made one want to vomit—thoroughly exploded.
Red and white matter splashed all over Karn, yet he didn't show any awareness of it. He merely withdrew the energy harpoon slowly, letting that headless corpse collapse onto the ground.
Having done all this, Karn's entire person slumped onto the floor. Subsequently, he suddenly thought of something. He roughly reached out his hands to tear at the locked buckle behind his hood.
This simple lock-buckle had long been unable to withstand his terrifying strength. But over the past hundreds of years, he had never once thought of tearing it off. It was only because his heart still held onto a hope.
He expected that one day, Father would recall him, tell him that his sins had been atoned for, and then personally unlock this visor that symbolized shame.
But now... he had finally learned the whole truth. His father never intended to call him back to the family and help him open this damn hood. In fact, that guy had never treated him as his child at all!
After realizing this point, the hood that symbolized shame naturally lost any meaning for its existence. Karn began to wildly try to tear this damn hood off as if he had gone mad.
Sila~!
Accompanied by a hair-raising sound of ripping, the hood was tossed into mid-air. A large spray of fresh blood erupted in the air, and the interior of the hood was visibly coated with a whole layer of flesh and blood.
Having worn this hood for as long as hundreds of years, the skin on Karn's face had already completely grown together with it. Therefore, in order to rip off this hood, he simply tore off his own facial skin entirely!
A bloody, featureless face that vaguely revealed parts of the stark white skull was exposed to the air. The intense agony caused his muscles to twitch unconsciously. Yet Karn did not emit even a single scream of pain. On the contrary, he laughed—laughed incomparably heartily.
At this moment, even though both sides were essentially irreconcilable enemies, Ultimate Spider-Man and the others couldn't help but subconsciously sprout a trace of sympathy for the miserable worm before their eyes.
Right at this time, Peter walked forward slowly, squatting down in front of Karn. Peter looked at Karn's black, hollow eye sockets, and after a moment, extended his hand:
"For everything you have experienced, I express my deepest regrets."
As he spoke, a holy white light surfaced on Peter's hand.
"However, regret cannot solve any problems."
As the words were spoken, an overly pale yet reasonably handsome face appeared before everyone, and Karn also caught sight of light again, completely catching him off guard. He looked at Peter—looked at this man who extended a hand toward him and revealed a gentle smile:
"Therefore, I suggest you join us."
"Personally sever your past, and make a thorough end with those so-called 'brothers and sisters' of yours."
The scene was silent for a long time. After a very long time, Karn slowly lifted that hand covered in blood stains, letting Peter pull him up from the ground.
About three minutes later, Peter and the others appeared outside the factory. Peter casually tossed a remote control to Karn. Karn didn't have any hesitation either, decisively pressing down on the button.
Boom!!!
The terrifying explosion caused the entire castle to vibrate violently. Within the flames, the entire clone factory was destroyed. Aside from Peter's Horse Talisman's capability, there was no longer even a fraction of a possibility for it to be repaired!
Looking at the ragingly burning clone factory before his eyes, Miguel O'Hara couldn't resist swallowing a mouthful of saliva:
"We... we really did it?"
Ultimate Spider-Man answered calmly: "No, this is only the beginning."
Speaking up to here, Ultimate Spider-Man subconsciously looked toward Peter at his side. Peter didn't speak, merely pressing down on the watch on his wrist. In the next second, a spatial teleportation portal opened before everyone.
And at the exact split second, the teleportation portal opened, white light surfaced on Peter's body once more. Since the crisis on this side had already been resolved, there was naturally no need for him to continue splitting himself.
Within the white light, Peter led Karn into the teleportation portal. Before leaving, he spoke to Ultimate Spider-Man and the others:
"Leave this side to you guys. Remember to find that whatever Master Weaver."
After saying these words, Peter and Karn's figures thoroughly vanished into the teleportation portal.
On the other side, New York, Hell's Kitchen.
The battle up to now had already lasted for over half an hour. During this process, because Peter's telekinetic shield could be infinitely refilled under the support of the Horse Talisman, the Inheritors were blocked by the shield, unable to absorb the power of the Spider Totems from the Spider-Men to replenish themselves.
Under this shifting balance, the scales of battle finally began to tilt toward the side of the superheroes.
Sou~
Boom!
Accompanied by a sound of breaking through the air, the eldest daughter of the Inheritor family, Verna, was hit squarely in the back by Hawkeye's trick arrow due to a momentary lapse of attention.
The arrowhead hadn't pierced very deeply into her body, and it hadn't even affected Verna's movements initially.
But in the next second, that arrowhead instantly exploded. The terrifying impact ultimately still affected Verna, causing her movement of rushing toward a Spider-Man to be obstructed, her figure also swaying uncontrollably.
"Ah ha~"
Gwen's eyes lit up, instantly seizing the opportunity to fire web lines and swing Verna away.
"Aleksei Grand Charge!"
The Rhino, this iron blockhead, rarely had a moment of cleverness. Although he possessed boundless strength previously, because he was too heavy and clumsy, he hadn't managed to hit these agile Inheritors even once, long since harboring a stomach full of anger.
Now seeing Verna unable to move freely, he decisively seized the opportunity, rushing fiercely toward the opponent like a Malphite who had opened his ultimate. While superheroes still had some reservations about killing, this iron blockhead didn't care about any of that!
Under the amplification of the radiation, his strength was actually even above that of an Inheritor. What was more fatal... as mentioned previously, the Inheritors' weakness was nuclear radiation!
The predecessor of Ultimate Spider-Man—the Peter Parker of that universe—had once utilized the power of radiation at a nuclear power plant to defeat Morlun. And the radiation on Aleksei's body was precisely a mutated symbiote born from absorbing the radiation energy within Aleksei's body.
Distinct from other brothers and sisters, "Radiation" itself could absorb radiation energy, and naturally carried radiation energy when attacking. This inadvertently made him an "Anti-Inheritor Noble Phantasm"!
The moment his accidentally stumbled upon "Aleksei Grand Charge" made contact with Verna's body, it caused Verna to feel a burst of searing pain.
The thick epidermis that was extremely difficult for other superheroes to break through was easily penetrated by Aleksei. The power that was originally barely mobilized within her body was also lost right then and there due to radiation interference.
Carrying Verna's completely defenseless body, Aleksei directly led Verna to crash heavily onto the solid ice wall condensed by Natasha.
Boom!
This single impact caused even the ice wall to be smashed with a web-like crack. Aleksei's half-body was embedded within it, struggling for a good while before barely breaking free from the solid ice.
If he, the attacker, was like this, the result for Verna, the receiver, could naturally be imagined. Verna's originally graceful figure was completely compressed into a two-dimensional paper cutout. The bones and internal organs within her body were all squeezed and exploded, and even her head was smashed across more than half its side.
"I... will still... re..."
She painstakingly attempted to lay down one last harsh word, but before she could finish speaking, she thoroughly lost consciousness.
An Inheritor—for the first time, a casualty had appeared!
