Chapter 67 "Parents" Arrive, Harry Becomes Dependent on Venom...
Upon hearing this, Peter strode over to Harry, grabbed him by the neck, and lifted him off the ground. The bloodshot in his eyes had lessened somewhat, but he still questioned him sharply:
"Then give them back to me and tell me where they are!"
"Huh?" Harry was completely dumbfounded. He had just said it casually, how did he know where Peter's Uncle Ben and Aunt May were?
There was nobody at the Parker's house when he arrived!
Seeing that Harry couldn't say anything, Peter was convinced that the other man was lying to him and that Uncle Ben and Aunt May must have been killed. So he raised his fist and was about to smash the other man's head to avenge Uncle Ben and Aunt May!
Harry saw Peter's fist looming larger before his eyes. It was too late to open his mouth and reveal his identity; he could only shout in his mind, "Wardfa! Venom, take off your suit!"
Venom reacted quickly, immediately retracting the symbiote suit from Harry's body, revealing Harry's...swollen face.
But Peter, determined to deliver the fatal blow, had no intention of backing down, so even after seeing Harry's face, it was too late for him to stop.
What's more, Peter and Harry hadn't seen each other for eight years. Although Peter felt that the other person looked familiar, he didn't recognize him as his childhood friend at first glance!
But in the end, Peter's fist stopped less than a millimeter from Harry's nose.
Harry could feel the tip of his nose being scraped by Peter's punch!
Peter stopped punching not because he finally recognized Harry and stopped, but because he stopped using his full strength.
Instead, Peter and Harry's shared "father" arrived.
Toby's large hand gripped Peter's arm, stopping Peter's furious punch mid-air.
Toby held Peter's hand in one hand and Harry's shoulder in the other, lifting the two men, who were a head shorter than him, off the ground and placing them on either side of him, separating them with his body.
"Have you two had enough of this?"
Only when Toby appeared did the bloodshot in Peter's eyes completely disappear, and his mind calmed down.
Harry breathed a sigh of relief, finally feeling safe again, but he kept his head down, not daring to look at Toby, like a child who had done something wrong.
After all, he had just lied to Peter, saying he had eaten Toby's parents...
Looking back now, I realize that my words not only angered Peter, but also offended my newly sworn brother...
Seeing Toby's calm demeanor, Peter knew that Ben and May were definitely alright, otherwise his cousin would have already torn the whole of New York apart!
So Peter looked at Harry, who was looking down and spitting out two teeth that Peter had just knocked out with his punch, and found him increasingly familiar, gradually overlapping with a figure from his childhood memories.
"You are... Harry?"
Under Peter's suspicious gaze, Harry, who had been looking down, raised his head, grinned, revealing his prominent buck teeth, and waved to Peter, "Hey, hello Peter..."
Seeing that both of them had calmed down, especially Peter, Toby released them, allowing them to return to the ground.
Upon seeing that it was indeed Harry, Peter was filled with a mixture of surprise, joy, and anger as he rushed over and hugged Harry, exclaiming, "You bastard, why are you joking like that? I almost killed you!"
Harry patted Peter on the back, who was still shaken, and chuckled, "You can't entirely blame me for this. My brother said you like to hold back when you beat people up, so he asked me to give you a surprise so you'd go all out and have a match with me."
Upon hearing this, Peter, after separating, looked Harry up and down, and asked in confusion, "A match? Why do we have to have a match? By the way, what were you wearing just now? I have a really strange feeling about it, kind of evil!"
Before Harry could answer, Venom's head suddenly popped out from Harry's shoulder: "You're the one who's wrong, you're the evil one, your whole family is evil!"
"And besides, I'm not a thing, I'm Venom!!"
Peter was startled by the sudden appearance of the venom and instinctively jumped away, crouching on the ceiling like a spider!
"Heavy Crab! Harry, what's with that huge parasite on you?"
venom:???
"Fuck you! You called me a parasite! Harry, don't stop me, I'm going to bite that pajama baby's head off!!"
"Never mind, never mind! Peter didn't do it on purpose, never mind, Venom..." Faced with the baring fangs of Venom, Harry could only hold Venom tightly around the neck to prevent it from stretching its neck and biting Peter!
If he really bites Peter, he'll have to take Peter to get a rabies vaccine!
But Harry's small arms and legs were no match for Venom. He was dragged along by Venom's big head, forcing Peter to constantly dodge Venom's gaping maw as it bit him from the ceiling!
「ε=(´ο`*)))Alas...」
Watching the scene unfold like a hellish mess of unruly kindergarten children, Toby felt like a helpless and powerless kindergarten teacher...
Oh, no, he was just helpless, but he had plenty of strength!
so......
Snap—
Toby slapped Venom's big black head right off Harry, sending it flying and shattering its teeth!
Harry felt a sudden weakness as the venom left his body. He didn't care about anything else and hurriedly chased after the flying venom, dusted it off the ground, picked it up, and stuffed it back into his body.
After the venom was reintegrated into his body, Harry sat down on the ground and let out a long, comfortable sigh.
Peter, who was watching from the ceiling, frowned and landed next to Toby, quietly asking:
"Toby, what's wrong with Harry? Why did he pick up the parasites and put them back into his body after you 'dewormed' him?"
Toby glanced at Peter and thought to himself, "It's because Venom hasn't attached itself to you. Otherwise, even if you've experienced the immense power Venom brings, you might not be willing to give it up."
But Toby certainly wouldn't say that; instead, he said calmly:
"Harry has a genetic disease inherited from the Osborn family. The symbiote can help him suppress the disease, but the symbiote must stay in his body. Once the symbiote leaves his body, Harry will experience the pain of being plagued by the disease again."
The symbiote's healing ability is not without limits. For example, physical injuries can be completely repaired by a single possession by the symbiote.
However, when it comes to genetic damage or terminal illnesses like cancer cells, the symbiote cannot completely cure you.
When it parasitizes your body, you can return to being a normal person, or even possess superhuman strength.
But once it leaves, your terminal illness will return, perhaps even more severe than before...
This is something Toby didn't tell Peter, nor did he tell Harry; they didn't need to know. Because as long as they kept listening to him, this kind of thing would never happen...
