As that man inadvertently looked up, he was captured by the security camera. Then, based on Ultron's algorithm, it was restored to high-definition 8K and frozen right in front of Peter.
Looking at that face, which remained familiar even after so many years, Peter was momentarily in a daze.
"Dad?"
That's right, the person in the footage was none other than Peter's biological father, Chad Parker!
Peter looked at the recording date in the upper right corner of the footage: 201... The date was today!
In other words, the video was filmed today!
Peter's face was filled with disbelief: "I... My father is still alive? He's still alive..."
Ryan nodded slightly: "That's right. According to Ultron's investigation, Uncle Richard is indeed still alive, but I can only resurrect the dead, not those who are still alive."
Peter took a good while to recover and accept this reality, then asked with a complex expression: "Then my mother..."
"Aunt Mary did indeed pass away unfortunately in that plane crash, but I can resurrect Aunt Mary," Ryan said calmly.
"Cousin, then please resurrect my mom first..." Peter used a formal address for Ryan that he hadn't used in a long time.
Looking at the emotionally conflicted Peter, Ryan did not answer, but silently raised his left hand as the six rings lit up.
Snapping his fingers was just something he wanted to do; it wasn't a necessary procedure to activate the six stones. Therefore, he didn't need to snap his fingers—just a thought was enough to use the six stones.
After all, he and Thanos were different types of Infinity Stones users; he was the master of the Infinity Stones!
As another breeze blew past, a woman much younger than the parents Tony had resurrected appeared in the conference room.
She was Peter's mother, Mary Parker!
"Mom!"
The young Peter wasn't as restrained as Tony. The moment he saw his mother return, he completely broke down in tears, lunged toward his mother, and hugged her tightly.
Mary, who had just regained consciousness and opened her eyes, felt herself being tightly embraced by a man.
She instinctively wanted to push the person away, but upon hearing that cry of "Mom," her body suddenly stiffened.
Compared to Tony's twenty years of changes, Peter's transformation from childhood directly to adulthood was obviously even greater.
But no mother could fail to recognize her own son.
Therefore, after Peter shouted that word 'Mom', although Mary didn't know how she had suddenly come back to life, she knew that this must be her son.
"Peter..."
Hearing Mary call out his name, Peter instantly cried even harder.
The loudness of his crying forced Tony, who had also wanted to cry, to forcefully hold back his tears.
Tony then let go of his mother, looked at the howling Peter, and twitched the corner of his mouth: "I shouldn't have looked as disgraceful as this kid just now..."
Maria reached out and knocked Tony on the forehead: "You are not allowed to talk about a child who lost his mother like that! He finally managed to reunite with his mother!"
"I was just joking..." Tony rubbed his forehead, but his face was full of a happy smile.
"Um... Brother... I..."
At this moment, Harry stood up, looking somewhat bashful as he looked at Ryan.
Ryan smiled slightly: "Harry, since you already call me brother, you don't need to be so formal. If you want to resurrect your parents, I can help you resurrect them together."
Hearing Ryan's straightforward words, Harry's face instead hesitated.
To be honest, Harry was actually very conflicted about resurrecting his parents—no, to be precise, about resurrecting his father.
Harry's mother had been very good to him, but she passed away when he was very young.
As for Harry's father...
The Harry of this Universe followed the setup of the Osborn Family from The Amazing Spider-Man Universe, rather than the deep father-son affection seen in the original trilogy.
On the contrary, Norman Osborn of this Universe was actually very cold toward Harry, showing him almost no care during his formative years and focusing solely on his career.
This also led to the gloomy and reclusive personality of the grown-up Harry in this Universe...
It wasn't until he joined the Parker Family that Harry truly felt the warmth of a normal household, and Harry enjoyed this feeling very much.
And now, if he chose to resurrect his parents, he would inevitably no longer be able to continue living in the Parker Family and presenting himself as the adopted son of the Parker couple, but would have to return to that cold Osborn Family.
This was something Harry was unwilling to do...
But not resurrecting his parents also made him feel somewhat Strange...
Seeing that Harry was quite conflicted, Ryan comforted him:
"There's no need to rush into a choice, Harry. You can think it over carefully before making a decision. Just come find me whenever you've figured it out. For now, let's continue distributing our year-end bonuses... Huh?!"
Before he finished speaking, Ryan suddenly sensed something was wrong. His figure instantly vanished from the head seat and appeared beside Peter and Mary.
Slap—————
The suddenly appearing Ryan grabbed a dark hand that was reaching out toward Mary from behind!
This even shocked Peter, because his Spider-Sense had completely failed to warn him about the approach of this dark hand just now!
Peter quickly protected his mother behind him, watching the dark hand that seemed to have appeared out of thin air with vigilance.
"Playing underhanded tricks in front of me? Get out here!"
Ryan sneered, exerting sudden force with his right hand that was gripping the dark hand, forcibly pulling the figure—whose only hand had been exposed in the air—completely out of thin air and throwing it away!
Swish—————Boom!!!
Under Ryan's immense strength, the dark shadow flew straight out and didn't stop until it slammed into the Vibranium-made wall.
At this moment, all the members of the Spider Family stood up and surrounded that dark shadow in an encircling formation.
Looking at the figure whose body was constantly shrouded in a ball of black mist, everyone's faces turned solemn.
"Hmph, playing ghosts and gods, show yourself!" Strange stepped forward first, casting spells with both hands and pushing a gust of cyan wind toward the dark shadow!
Whoosh—————
Winds of Watoomb: Dispels all illusions and shielding magic!
Under the effect of the Winds of Watoomb, the black mist on You-Know-Who's body was blown away wispy by wispy, finally revealing his true form.
That was an elegant, middle-aged blond White male wearing a tailcoat from the last century.
At least from his appearance, that was the case...
His manners were elegant. He first glanced at Doctor Strange, who had just cast magic to remove the disguise on his body:
"A sorcerer of Kamar-Taj? So the Ancient One of this Universe is dead?"
"The Ancient One of this Universe? So you're someone from another Universe?" Hearing this, Strange keenly detected the anomaly in the dialogue.
Hearing this, the mysterious man quickly waved his hand: "No, no, no. Actually, you can't say I'm from another Universe, because this Universe actually belongs under my jurisdiction as well—at least... the dead souls belong to me, and someone among you just broke my rules~"
"Souls belong to your jurisdiction? Who on earth are you?!" Hearing this, Strange's expression became even more solemn, and he immediately raised the Shield of the Seraphim, which possessed the strongest magical shield!
At this point, a handsome red fellow couldn't help but leap directly onto the conference table, pointing right at the mysterious man's nose and cursing unceremoniously:
"Mephisto, you old asshole, what kind of mystery are you trying to put on in front of your Grandpa Deadpool? Fuck your mother!"
