Peter: You'll Understand When You're My Age

For Pietro, letting go of past hatred is not so easy.

The missiles were indeed not launched by Stark, but there is no doubt that they came from the Stark Industries.

The Galactic Plumbers also fought alongside the Avengers in the Battle of New York.

Therefore, Pietro was curious to know what the Galactic Plumbers would do if he and Wanda were determined to take revenge on Stark.

Help them, or stop them?

If it's the latter, then even if Ben offered such generous terms, he would never agree.

In response, Ben stated:

"The Galactic Plumbers is not a civic center, Mr. Pietro."

We do not help mediate members' personal relationships, and generally do not interfere in members' personal lives.

In other words, that's a feud between you and Tony Stark, and he won't get involved.

Don't expect me to help, but I won't stop you either.

That's enough!

Pietro nodded immediately.

As long as you don't stop them, it's fine.

He immediately jumped up from the sofa, slapping his bottom and saying:

When do we leave?

"Now."

A few hours later, Ben returned to the Old America, greeted by Quinjet sent by Norman.

Then he took Pietro and Wanda to Primus.

"The Galactic Plumbers Headquarters Space Station is still under construction, and New York City is also being rebuilt. You can stay in Primus for now."

The Primus Building has hundreds of floors and became the tallest building in New York City after the Avengers Tower collapsed during the war.

Previously, Ben had allocated floors specifically for Connors and other scientists to use as laboratories, but even if each person had several floors, they still didn't take up much space.

Most of the building's space is not being utilized.

Ben felt he really should hire some people for the company; otherwise, it wouldn't be right to keep using Osborn Enterprise ' employees to do the work.

When the Spider-Man costume and image copyright infringement issue arose, it was Osborn's legal department that was contacted.

"If you're looking to hire a lawyer, you can let my cousin give it a try," Blu Banner said, walking over. "Her name is Jennifer; she just graduated not long ago and studied law."

It seems the argument between Banner and Otto is over, but it's unclear who convinced whom.

"Find a time for her to come for an interview."

Ben nodded. He knew that Banner's cousin would become She-Hulk in the future, so it wouldn't be a problem to have her Primus ahead of time.

Banner nodded.

Then he looked at Wanda and Pietro, and asked in confusion, "Who are they?"

"The new members of the Galactic Plumbers, this is Wanda Maximoff, and this is Pietro Maximoff," Ben introduced them briefly. Wanda seemed very reserved, while Pietro was much more outgoing.

He extended his hand to Banner and said, "You can call me Quicksilver; it's a hero nickname I came up with myself."

Blu Banner.

Banner shook his hand briefly, then prepared to leave.

Actually, he wasn't very good at dealing with lively kids like Quicksilver.

"Otto and I plan to study the Mind Stone, so I'll go upstairs first."

Clearly, Otto was the ultimate winner of that debate.

Ben was not surprised by this.

With such a wondrous object as the Mind Stone before them, no scientist could resist studying it.

The mystery of gemstones corresponds to the truth.

"Be careful, Doctor Banner," Ben reminded them, then led Wanda and Quicksilver to a floor where they could stay temporarily.

"You can stay here for now. I'll buy you some clothes when I have time, or you can go on your own."

Ben took out two pre-arranged salary cards for them, intending to let them move around freely for the time being.

"I'll test your abilities again tomorrow, and then I'll introduce you to the other members when I have time."

They returned from Sokovia shortly after nightfall, and after a few more hours of flight time, plus the time difference, it was already morning in New York.

Pietro was in alright spirits after not sleeping all night, but Wanda looked quite tired, Ben decided to let them rest for a day.

"No problem!"

Pietro clearly had no intention of taking a proper rest. After taking the bank card from Ben, he immediately asked where the video game stores were in New York.

Wanda, wanting to adjust to the time difference, also planned to go out with him.

Seeing this, Ben said:

"You'll definitely become good friends with Harry and Peter."

--

"You'll definitely become good friends with Harry and Benny."

"The Benny will be home tonight, and I can introduce you to him then..."

On the streets of New York, Peter swung his Black Silk Silk through the city while talking to the Venom inside his body.

He hasn't taken the Venom suit off since the last time he wore Venom.

Venom's mouth was a bit broken, he was always swearing, and he was always thinking about eating people's heads, but he did make Peter start to feel confident.

In short, the two of them are still in their honeymoon phase. The feeling of increased power that Venom brought to Peter during the Chitauri War is intoxicating for Peter; he enjoys this feeling of being full of power.

In particular, when Venom replicated his genes, it also fed back the power of the replication onto Peter.

Therefore, many of Venom's shortcomings were insignificant to him.

Moreover, the Venom is slowly influencing Peter.

However, Peter's personality is too soft, and he is somewhat too righteous, so Venom's effect on him is slow, and there are no signs of it yet.

Who cares?

Venom listened to him and answered absentmindedly.

To be honest, he didn't care what Peter said at all. The streets were full of people, and even their hearts, livers, spleens, kidneys, lungs, and intestines full of feces smelled good in the Venom.

The air is filled with sweet and delicious smells!

Having been starving for days, Venom couldn't think of anything and didn't hear Peter mention anything about turning into an alien.

He doesn't care at all!

In Venom's view, this planet is full of delicious food, so who cares where we go?

As long as you don't run into that weirdo who captured him and then turned into something else entirely, you'll be fine.

At the time, Ben's ability to change size at will terrified Venom quite a bit. Most importantly, that guy was untrustworthy and knew how to deal with him.

When can I eat them?

"Never." Peter raised his hand and flew higher into the sky.

I protest!

Venom shouts!

"I want to eat brains! I want to crush those people's skulls with my teeth like I'm eating potato chips, then pour boiling water into their brains to scald them! Mmm—so delicious!"

As he said this, Venom seemed to have already taken a bite, and couldn't help but stick out his tongue, then used his tongue, which was longer than a snake's, to wash Peter's face.

You're so mean!

Peter immediately felt disgusted. In his current view, Venom was great in every way, except that it was just too disgusting.

His behavior and his menu were both disgusting.

"We cannot eat people, nor can we open a person's skull and scald their brains with boiling water!"

Peter lectured Venom while looking dejected and saying in a very helpless tone, "Venom, we're Super Hero, we can't do bad things."

"Okay..." Venom said softly, as if he finally understood Peter's good intentions.

Peter nodded immediately with relief. "Good that you understand."

Then he heard Venom ask, "Then go eat scum's head."

"Ah... no!"

"They're old people anyway, they're almost dead."

"No way! And if you even dare to think about eating Uncle Ben and Aunt May's brains, I'll kill you!" Peter warned.

Venom immediately shouted in dissatisfaction.

"This won't work! That won't work! What exactly do you want from me?"

"Don't eat people."

Peter said calmly.

Then he shot Silk at a corner of the Empire State Building, and his whole body swung out.

"Alright, I'm going home now. Be quiet."

"No!!!"

Venom's voice trailed off into the sky.

You are abusing me!

"If you won't let me eat, I'm going to report you to the Alien Protection Association!"

"Shut up!"

Thirty minutes later, Peter burst through the front door, carrying a mountain of cheap chocolate.

Inside the house, Uncle Ben and Aunt May were busy preparing dinner. When they saw their nephew return, they both stopped what they were doing and looked at him in surprise.

"Peter?" Aunt May asked, holding a spatula.

"What's wrong?" Peter asked, his mouth full of unopened chocolate as he chewed.

You look so strange!

Uncle Ben and Aunt May said at the same time.

"You're even stranger than you were last semester."

They were referring to the time last semester, right after Peter was bitten by a spider and began to gain Superpowers.

At that time, Peter ate more in a day than a cow.

"Um... I'm just a little hungry, you know, it's puberty..." Peter scratched his head and explained awkwardly.

Uncle Ben was still puzzled:

"How come I didn't know that puberty could have these symptoms?"

"That's normal, Uncle Ben. You'll understand when you get to my age."

Uncle Ben:???

Peter, blurting out something inappropriate, decided to change the subject. "Okay, I meant to say, what about Benny and Harry?"

"They haven't come back yet."

"Okay, I'll go upstairs and wait."

After saying that, Peter ran upstairs as if Peter were fleeing.

Once inside the room, Venom poked its head out, eating chocolate as it asked, "Who are Benny and Harry?"

My cousin and my best friend.

"Wait, you haven't told me you have a cousin!" Venom exclaimed in surprise.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Peter slapped Venom across the face. "I've been talking to you about him the whole way home."

"Oh my god! I had no idea you had a cousin! Does he look like you? I bet he's absolutely delicious!"

"I'm warning you, you better not mess with him, or you'll be in big trouble!"
