Hearing that familiar voice, everyone in the Spider-Alliance suddenly turned their gazes toward the three people who had just appeared!
Unlike the calm in Ryan Parker's eyes, the Spider-Men of the Spider-Alliance were filled with fear the moment they saw the three members of Inheritor Family appear!
Because not long ago, over a hundred Spider-Men from their Spider-Alliance had died tragically at the hands of these fellows!
They especially recognized Morlun, the leader of the three; he was the head of Inheritor Family and the Inheritor who had most brutally killed the most Spider-Men back then!
Miguel sprang up from the ground, staring fixedly at Morlun and the other two, questioning them in a heavy tone:
"How on earth did you track us? To think you could so quickly and accurately follow us to this Universe we escaped to at random!"
Facing Miguel's obvious attempt to fish for information, Morlun glanced at him, raised an eyebrow, and admitted generously:
"Indeed, we do have means to track you pathetic Spider-Men, but I'm afraid you've mistaken one thing..."
Miguel's brow furrowed: "What thing?"
Morlun slowly raised his hand, pointing his finger at Ryan Parker beside Miguel, his voice tinged with excitement:
"We aren't here to hunt down you pieces of trash this time. You trash aren't worth three family members mobilizing. Our target this time is him—this delicious and dangerous spider!"
Hearing that Morlun's target wasn't them but Ryan Parker, Miguel didn't breathe a sigh of relief; instead, his heart grew even heavier.
Although Ryan Parker had just given them a beating and easily defeated their Spider-Alliance squad, Miguel didn't resent Ryan Parker for it; on the contrary, he valued Ryan Parker even more in his heart!
Otherwise, he wouldn't have just thought about handing over the position of Spider-Alliance leader to him!
In Miguel's view, a Spider-Man with such great power and intellect should absolutely not fall here today!
Therefore, Miguel resolutely took a step forward, faintly shielding Ryan Parker, and said solemnly: "Take them and leave quickly. Go gather all the Spider-Men you can. I'll hold them off for you temporarily!"
It had to be said that although Spider-Man 2099 was somewhat arrogant, he truly had the sense of responsibility of a leader!
His first instinct when encountering difficulty wasn't to flee, but to choose to face it bravely!
However...
Flee?
What kind of interstellar joke was that!
In Ryan Parker's dictionary, the word 'flee' had never existed!
Ryan Parker reached out and shoved Miguel's face aside, saying coldly: "Give it a rest. Get lost and watch closely. See how Spider Abilities are actually used!"
As he spoke, ignoring Miguel's hand trying to pull him back, he walked toward the three Inheritors step by step at an unhurried pace, just as he had walked toward the other Spider-Men of the Spider-Alliance before.
Seeing this, Morlun and the other two didn't take the approaching Ryan Parker seriously. Especially Morlun and Raina, who had returned to their peak; their lips curled into disdainful smiles.
Other Spider-Men couldn't run away fast enough when they saw them, yet this guy actually dared to walk toward them proactively. He was simply courting death!
The people of the Spider-Alliance were also greatly shocked to see Ryan Parker walking toward the three Inheritors, thinking that this guy surely didn't intend to slap these three Inheritors across the face like he had just slapped them!
Miguel shouted a warning from behind Ryan Parker: "Don't engage them in close combat! If they grab your body for too long, they can drain your soul!"
To this, Ryan Parker gave a disdainful smile: "Grab me?"
Whoosh—
Everyone felt Ryan Parker's figure blur for a moment, and in the next instant, he actually vanished from the spot like a phantom!
That was actually an afterimage!
Then where was Ryan Parker?
Slap!
A crisp sound of a slap rang out!
Everyone followed the sound and saw that Morlun was already kneeling on the ground, clutching his face!
And standing in front of him was exactly the Ryan Parker who had just vanished from his original spot!
Furthermore, Ryan Parker's hands were gripping the faces of the other two Inheritors, one in each hand, lifting them into the air!
Ryan Parker turned his head slightly to glance at Miguel, who still had his mouth open from the warning, and said calmly: "Get it straight. I'm the hunter now. They're just my prey!"
While everyone was shocked, a doubt also rose in their hearts, which was...
When the hell did you get over there?!
Miguel's pupils shook: "Teleportation?"
Even with his eyesight as a Spider-Man, he hadn't captured Ryan Parker's movement trajectory. He could only assume that Ryan Parker being able to teleport was the only possibility!
"No..."
However, a voice denied Miguel's guess.
The two Gwens, who had stood together at some point, spoke up. One of them said with a tone of absolute trust: "My Ryan doesn't know any teleportation. He's just simply fast..."
The other Gwen heard this and immediately hesitated to speak...
Ryan Parker... is he really that fast?
The members of the Spider-Alliance, hearing Gwen say Ryan Parker wasn't teleporting, didn't feel relieved; instead, they felt even more shocked.
Fast to the point that even they, as Spider-Men, couldn't capture it?
This was even harder to accept than teleportation!
And it wasn't just the Spider-Men of the Spider-Alliance who couldn't accept it. Morlun, who had been slapped to the ground, also had trembling pupils, unable to accept this outcome!
If you said you could get the first move before I recovered my strength, that would be fine, but...
I've devoured so many Spider-Men, and my strength has almost recovered to my former peak! Why was I still slapped to the ground like a dog by you?!
"Dammit! How is this possible? Impossible, absolutely impossible! I don't believe it!!!"
Morlun gave a roar and lunged fiercely at Ryan Parker, who was looking down at him with contemptuous eyes. He opened his large Vampire-fanged mouth to bite into Ryan Parker's neck!
To this, Ryan Parker expressed...
Eat this, bang bang bang!
Ryan Parker first delivered a front kick, hitting the lunging Morlun square in the chest, letting Morlun experience what it felt like to be kicked by a coalition of gods!
spider spirit + Hulk + Thor + God of War + Thanos + N Spider-Men's power = Big Bang!
With this one kick, the speed at which Morlun flew backward even caused sparks to ignite on his body, as he penetrated the entire New York like a meteor!
It wasn't over yet. After kicking Morlun away, Ryan Parker looked at Karn and Raina, who were struggling frantically in his hands and gripping his hands tightly in an attempt to absorb his soul. He smiled slightly:
"What's wrong, you two little children? Have you discovered that you can't suck out my soul, right?"
With Ryan Parker's large hands gripping their entire faces, the two couldn't speak at all, but the rising emotions of terror on them already told Ryan Parker he had guessed correctly!
That's exactly what they were thinking!
As for why Inheritor Family, who could absorb the souls of Animal Totem users, couldn't suck out Ryan Parker's soul?
That was very simple...
In Ryan Parker's eyes, a bright yellow light flashed in his left eye, and a mysterious green light flashed in his right eye...
The Mind Stone denied external access to his soul, and the Time Stone firmly locked his soul within his body...
Holding three Infinity Stones, you few little bats think you can take my soul? Are you even worthy?
Ryan Parker gave the two a most ferocious smile: "Little bats, you'd better know how to fly next, because you're about to take off!"
After saying that, the Ryan-style windmill began to spin rapidly. The hurricane generated by him spinning the heads of the two Inheritors even forced the other Spider-Men on the rooftop to use their respective spider-adhesion abilities to grip the floor so they wouldn't be blown away!
Finally, after two crisp 'crack' sounds of necks breaking in his hands, Ryan Parker threw the two Inheritors fiercely in the direction Morlun had just flown!
