Ben: Welcome Home

Ultimately, the family meeting ended with Uncle Ben and Aunt May joining the Plumbers.

However, in reality, it was mainly Uncle Ben who joined.

The Parker Family somewhat patriarchal; Uncle Ben doesn't want to see his children take risks, and of course, he won't let his wife take any either.

Harry felt he had finally escaped that atmosphere.

Next came the tense and exciting part: the injection of serum.

On the sofa, Uncle Ben rolled up his sleeves, revealing his arms, which had a high body fat percentage and were somewhat flabby, and asked with concern:

"Are we really not going to the lab? It feels a bit too casual here, and I remember Captain America had a special device when he got his injection."

"Don't worry, you've eaten poop."

Ben picked up a vial of serum, then walked over to Uncle Ben and injected the serum into Uncle Ben's left shoulder.

Instantly, the serum in the test tube began to be injected into his body.

He then injected the serum into Aunt May and Harry as well. The three of them immediately collapsed onto the sofa, showing no signs of pain, but their bodies began to metabolize rapidly, eliminating the genetic defects that had been present in their bodies.

Do you think Uncle Ben will become like Captain America?

Peter asked.

Ben shook his head. "How could that be? Uncle Ben is getting old; it's impossible for him to grow from a small boy to as tall as Steve all at once."

He estimated that Uncle Ben would be able to regain his height from when he was young.

Because they weren't using any instruments, Ben and Peter could clearly and directly see the changes that had occurred in Uncle Ben, Aunt May, and Harry.

The two middle-aged and elderly contestants' full heads of silver hair began to turn brown, and the wrinkles on their faces gradually disappeared. Their loose skin was filled with collagen, making them look decades younger.

Aunt May even became Sister May.

"I bet Uncle Ben is in for a treat tonight."

Ben crossed his arms and said this with an air of seriousness.

"A fierce battle seems inevitable, so I've decided not to stay home tonight."

"Where are you going?"

Peter asked.

"Of course, we'll go to Felicia's house."

What about me?

Peter asked.

"Can't Spider-Man sleep in the sewers?" Ben said.

Peter:???

After a long while, the three people who had been injected with the serum slowly regained consciousness.

Immediately afterwards, they exclaimed in surprise to each other, especially Uncle Ben and Aunt May, who seemed to have been reborn and regained their youth.

Of course, it's not actually that exaggerated.

They now look to be around thirty years old, and Uncle Ben's height, which had shrunk somewhat due to overwork, has now returned to normal.

"I've grown taller," he said happily after measuring himself. "SevenSeven, a few centimeters taller than when I was younger."

Just then, Sister May —no, Aunt May— excitedly swayed over, pinched his ear, and asked:

Am I still an old lady now?

No woman doesn't want to be young and beautiful.

Uncle Ben surrendered immediately.

As for Harry, he hadn't changed much, except that he looked a little stronger than before.

However, he could feel that the power within his body was much greater than before.

"In reality, the Super Soldier Serum can only bring the injector's physical abilities to about the human limit. To become a qualified Plumbers, further training is still required."

Uncle Ben immediately said, "I can't wait!"

So Ben had them cleanse themselves of the impurities that had been expelled from their bodies, and then took them to Primus.

There are still only a few people in the company.

Banner and Otto have formed a partnership and are studying the Mind Stone, while Connors is taking his pet lizard for a walk.

According to him, this brings psychological pleasure to the mutated organism, which is beneficial to the progress of the experiment.

As a result, Ben dragged them to the underground training ground.

"Get ready to record their physical fitness data. Also, haven't Wanda and Quicksilver returned yet?"

Who is that?

Connors asked as he turned on his computer and started operating the various machines in the training field.

"I forgot you haven't met them yet," Ben said, covering his face. "They're new recruits to the Galactic Plumbers, and if they're trained well, they might become the main force against Thanos."

Ben still can't forget the Witch in Avengers: Endgame who almost tore Thanos apart.

Not to mention the Witch in Doctor Strange 2: Wanda who Illuminati the Illuminati and arbitrarily altered reality.

Originating from the Chaos Power of the Chthon, it is one of the most powerful forces comparable to the Phoenix.

now.

Wanda and Quicksilver, now dressed in new clothes, are in Manhattan.

Both of them used the Ben gave them to buy new clothes, but Pietro didn't go to the arcade. Instead, they went to Manhattan and stared at the Avengers Tower, which was now a ruin, from morning until evening.

Excavators rebuilding the building passed back and forth in front of them, carrying away the building's ruins.

The shattered scene looked just like Sokovia nine years ago.

They were only ten years old at that time.

"Do you remember?" Pietro said. "The four of us were having dinner when the bomb exploded two floors below us, blowing a big hole in the floor, and then my mom and dad fell down."

Wanda nodded, her voice hollow.

"I was completely stunned. Then another missile smashed through the windows of my house. It didn't explode; it just stood there on the rubble, like a tombstone..."

She didn't sound sad at all, just lonely and empty.

It was like a hole blasted into the floor; once it fell in, it was never seen again.

"Then you found me, grabbed me, and hid me under the bed. We were trapped there for two days before we were rescued."

"If that's a tombstone, then it should have Stark's name on it."

Pietro said hatefully.

He never dreamed that children from that era would come looking for revenge!

certainly.

For him, now is not the time.

Pietro knew perfectly well that his current strength was still very weak, and besides, Manhattan was now destroyed, and Tony Stark didn't live there at all.

Even if he wanted revenge, there was nothing he could do.

They didn't emerge from the post-war ruins of Sokovia until the sun had set.

The weather in New York was starting to get cooler at the end of November.

Wanda tugged at the collar of her new clothes, shrank back slightly, and said:

"It's time to go back, Pietro."

"Of course, we can't keep our boss waiting." Pietro tossed the bank card in his hand into the air and then caught it.

Half an hour later.

Wanda and Pietro returned to Primus, but Primus was so poor that they didn't even have anyone to greet them. So Eunice led them to the underground training grounds as well.

In the basement, Ben was helping Uncle Ben, Aunt May, and Harry test data.

"What is Uncle Ben's maximum strength?"

"The highest recorded weight is 2.34 tons, and the sprint speed can reach 80 kilometers per hour. Reaction time and thinking ability have also been significantly improved."

Connors said as he performed the calculations.

After testing, it became clear that the same Super Soldier Serum had different effects on different people.

Harry's stats were relatively even, but he had the Green Goblin Armor and didn't rely on the serum.

As for Uncle Ben and Aunt May, they each have their own focus.

In terms of physical abilities, Uncle Ben has a greater advantage in both strength and speed, but Aunt May is stronger in reaction and thinking.

Uncle Ben joked that if she went to a senior university now, she would definitely get a scholarship.

He stood out like a crane among chickens among a group of elderly people whose minds were no longer quite clear.

Aunt May immediately sent him to the Olympics. Since they were both on drugs, Uncle Ben was definitely much better than those purple-skinned people.

"That way they won't have to divide swimming into thirty-five events."

"Connors will take you to have your muscle density tested later, along with other tests," Ben said.

At this moment, Pietro saw them stop, so he and Wanda walked over together.

"You're back. How was the arcade?"

"The games in New York should be a bit better than those in Sokovia, right?"

"But in my opinion, games are most enjoyable to play with friends."

Ben turned his head and said with a smile.

Pietro twirled the bank card between his fingers, looking at Ben strangely.

He didn't expect that Ben actually thought he had spent the whole day playing games.

"You didn't send anyone to monitor us?"

Upon hearing this, Ben frowned and asked, "Why would I do that?"

"Why?" Pietro asked in surprise, "You gave us a million dollars!"

"One million each," Wanda added.

"Yes, two million! That much money! Aren't you afraid I'll run off with the money you gave us?"

To be honest, Pietro was puzzled. He had only known Ben for less than a day and couldn't understand why the other man trusted him so much.

You should know that he had been in that small gang in Sokovia for several years, and it was not uncommon for gang members to fight each other over a few thousand dollars.

"I'm not afraid," Ben shrugged.

It's only two million US dollars, what's there to be afraid of?

"You really trust us that much?" Pietro had clearly misunderstood.

Ben said, "I don't trust you, and I don't care about those two million."

"You're free to leave United States with those two million. I won't pursue it; it's not worth it. I give two million to everyone who betrays me, so I don't need to elaborate on how much those who follow me will receive, right?"

"You understand applause!"

Ben spouting pyramid scheme rhetoric.

However, in reality, several million US dollars is not much in today's eyes.

Not long ago, the Old America government, Stark Industries, and Wakanda had already deposited money into his account for the reconstruction of New York, and the number of zero -Ben on it was already countless.

Who would care about a mere two million?

Having heard these quotes from Pietro, he was instantly stunned.

The key point is that, upon reflection, he realized that it actually made sense.

The siblings then fell silent.

"In addition..."

Ben drew out his words, glancing at the transformed Pietro and Wanda, then said softly:

Welcome home.

There have been some things going on at home these past couple of days, so I'll only be updating twice today, and maybe only once tomorrow.

Also, I've noticed why I always make so many typos. Sogou Input Method is faulty. Even when I type the correct pinyin, it insists on showing me a different one. For example, if I type "sheng," it shows me characters with "shen"; if I type "j," it always recommends "ai"; if I type "recommend," it shows me "leg cancer," and it even puts it at the top, which is incredibly stupid.
