------------------------------------------------
Peter didn't know about any of this. His mind was entirely focused on the fact that his childhood friend also had a hereditary disease, and his expression was complicated:
"I didn't expect Harry to also carry the curse of the osborn family..."
Immediately, Peter thought of something, his spirits lifting, and he asked Ryan:
"By the way, Ryan, can Dr. Connors' lizard regeneration serum, or the Super Spider my father left behind, cure Harry?"
Ryan glanced at Peter and shook his head slightly:
"If it could, I wouldn't have given the Symbiote I just got to Harry. The improved, side-effect-free version of the regeneration serum Dr. Connors has now is a weakened version; it can only heal basic physical damage and is completely powerless against a genetic disease like Harry's..."
"As for the Super Spider, have you forgotten? Your father put a genetic lock on the Super Spider back then and didn't leave behind the original rearing formula. Except for those with our parker family genes, anyone else bitten by a Super Spider would only die from genetic collapse."
Hearing this, Peter also recalled that point.
In the briefcase his father left behind, there was only the formula for the lizard regeneration serum, not the formula for the Super Spider.
Watching the dejected Peter, Ryan's lips curled into a smile as he comforted and encouraged him:
"But don't be too discouraged. The compatibility between Venom and Harry is very high. As long as Harry doesn't let Venom go hungry, Venom will only make Harry better, not worse. Besides..."
"You are Uncle Richard's son, and your talent has never been weaker than your father's. Since Uncle Richard could lock the super gene, with your intelligence, why can't you unlock the Super Spider?"
The words struck Peter like a lightning bolt. He clapped his hands—yes!
Since his father could add their parker family genes into the Super Spider, why couldn't he reverse the process and remove the parker family genes from the Super Spider!
Thinking of this, Peter's worry about Harry's condition vanished quite a bit, and he guaranteed that he would go all out to crack the Super Spider's genetic lock next.
Watching Peter's determined look 'for the sake of love,' Ryan also revealed a mysterious smile.
Cracking the Super Spider was an idea he'd had when he first got it, but because he had too much on his plate and wasn't willing to soak himself in research projects for long periods, he had set it aside.
Now that his genius cousin Peter was willing to take over the work for him, it was naturally for the best.
However, Ryan also gave Peter a few instructions, telling him that even if he successfully cracked the Super Spider later, he must tell him first, must never use it on his own initiative, and certainly must not breathe a word of it to the outside world.
Peter naturally understood this. He only wanted to crack the Super Spider to save Harry; he had no intention of mass-producing Super Spiders for profit, so he agreed immediately.
And although Ryan told Peter to notify him first after cracking it, he likewise had no intention of using the Super Spider for profit.
After all, for special figures like Spider-Man who concerned his own existence, it was better to keep their numbers in the single digits in this Universe for now.
Even if Peter successfully cracked the Super Spider, he would at most give it to Harry, Ben, May, and Gwen to use, to see if he could gain more spider power empowerment from them after they became Spider-Men.
As for anyone else in this Universe, especially ordinary people, forget it.
Next was time for Harry and Peter to catch up.
The two childhood friends hadn't seen each other in eight years, so they naturally had endless things to talk about.
However, both tacitly avoided mentioning the matter of their parents.
Harry felt guilty about the death of Peter's parents and didn't dare to speak.
Peter also felt a bit guilty about the death of Harry's father and similarly didn't know how to bring it up.
Because he was one of the few who knew that Norman had likely died at Ryan's hands, but Ryan had killed Norman for his sake, which made Peter even more afraid to speak.
He couldn't let Harry hate Ryan because of his own business...
so the two tacitly kept this matter buried deep in their hearts.
It wasn't until evening—after Ryan had sent Gwen back in the morning, Peter had taken Mary Jane for a spin, and Ben and May had also gone out for a drive—that they finally returned.
The parker family, including Harry and the now-free Dr. Connors, enjoyed a harmonious dinner together before Harry took his leave.
Ryan used the excuse of seeing Harry off to leave with him.
However, neither Harry nor Ryan spoke of the true purpose of their departure.
Ben and May shouldn't know, and it wasn't suitable for Peter to know.
After all, tonight was destined to be a bloodbath... Night.
Oscorp Tower.
Whoosh—
Whoosh—
One black and one silver-gray figure landed atop the Oscorp Tower, both clinging to the building's outer glass.
Harry glanced at the hundreds of meters of empty space beneath his feet and swallowed hard: "Oh my God, I never realized Oscorp Tower was this high, this terrifying!"
Ryan looked at Harry, whose body was shaking slightly, and smiled: "You used to look from the inside, so of course you didn't think so. This time you're on the outside without any safety measures; it's normal to be afraid."
"Take a deep breath. You'll get used to it."
Looking at the calm and composed Ryan beside him, Harry took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down: "Whew, I'm ready. Brother, let's begin!"
Ryan nodded: "Do you want to go by my plan, or do you want to decide the order of the plan yourself?"
Harry said without hesitation: "I'll listen to you, brother!"
Ryan nodded with satisfaction: "Good, then we'll go by my original plan. First, I'll take you to see the true state of Osborn Enterprises, then we'll find those board members one by one to settle accounts, and finally, I'll help you take back Osborn Enterprises."
Harry nodded heavily: "Yeah!"
At this hour, most of Osborn Enterprises' employees had finished work, let alone those wealthy lords on the Board of Directors.
So Ryan and Harry slipped into Oscorp Tower through a window on the roof without alerting anyone.
Moreover, Ryan, who had been here once before, already had the locations of every surveillance camera in Oscorp Tower memorized, so they weren't even caught on camera along the way.
Harry didn't ask why Ryan was so familiar with his family's building; he already had an answer in his heart.
Because he had already seen the Super Spider in the Underground Room of Ryan's house, plus the fact that the Super Spider cultivation room in Oscorp Tower had caught fire a while ago, killing all the Super Spiders.
Harry had already guessed that Ryan was the one who did it.
However, Harry didn't blame Ryan for it, because the Super Spider was originally a super-organism cultivated by the parker family, and Peter's father had died because of it.
