"It's over, Morlun."

The once arrogant Inheritors, Morlun, has now been forced to revert from his Goop form back to his original form, his body riddled with holes by the powerful energy beams of the Ultimate Super Giant.

However, this attack also depleted the Ultimatrix's energy, forcing Ben to deactivate his transformation.

The Ultimatrix, resembling a wristband, was now flashing red, and white smoke was rising from the internal structure of the machine due to the high temperature, emanating a burnt smell.

"It's overloaded," Super-Kill popped his head out. "This kind of imitation can't compare to the real Little Broken Watch, no matter what."

It's even far from the original Ultimatrix.

"Of course it can't compare to Azmuth's inventions."

Ben wasn't surprised. Although the original Ultimatrix was somewhat different from the Little Broken Watch, it was actually an invention of Azmuth, a genuine backup, only lacking the gene repair and protection functions.

Furthermore, almost all the watches that appear in The Ben 10 are related to Azmuth— Albedo's watch was stolen from Azmuth, and the Nemetrix was only barely created by Dr. Psychobos after the Goop copied the data of the Little Broken Watch.

The Ben is holding now is a fake he made himself, so it's far inferior.

"I don't know if it can be restored. What if it can't? Don't forget, we still have another problem?"

"Super-Kill" refers to Solus.

The strongest Inheritor Family single-handedly killed the Captain Cosmos.

"What are you afraid of? There's still one more."

Ben walked up to Morlun. The tenacious fellow was still alive; his shattered chest was still rising and falling slightly, but his body was no longer able to move.

Its limbs were blown to pieces, making it impossible for it to activate its Nemetrix to fight back.

"This is almost a one-to-one Goop. In terms of completion, it's much more advanced than the Ultimatrix. I just wonder how many predatory enemies it contains."

To be honest, there probably won't be many.

The genes listed in the Nemetrix were likely collected by Coughba. Given that guy's strength, he could probably only collect the natural enemies of some regular heroes.

Keep in mind that the Little Broken Watch contains over a million genes. How could Khyber possibly find all of their natural enemies with his power alone?

Not to mention that some of his natural enemies have long surpassed his strength.

"Are they targeting Nemtri?"

Morlun's eyes gleamed with malice. Although he was now unable to move, if he were given the opportunity to get close to Ben, he could immediately absorb Ben's life energy using the power of the Leech Totem.

Then, everything will be reversed again!

Victory will be mine!

Morlun was like a pitcher plant waiting for its prey to take the bait, leaving the lure exposed and waiting for Ben to approach.

However, Ben is neither Takuya Yamashiro nor Captain Cosmos.

He had long been wary of this move by his Inheritors.

The Symbiote Super-Kill Suit instantly covered his entire body, and the Nightmare Suit reappeared, making him look like a demon.

At that moment, Morlun's anxious heart finally died.

The existence of the Symbiote can isolate the power of the Leech Totem to a certain extent. This was something Morlun discovered when he was hunting Peter, and Ben also learned this from the Symbiote's Hive memories.

Now, Morlun had completely lost hope.

He could only watch helplessly as Ben took the Nemetrix from his chest.

He couldn't even roar or curse, because his vocal cords had already been destroyed in the previous energy impact.

"I'd like to ask you who gave you Nemetri, but it seems you can't answer that." Ben glanced at Morlun, and couldn't help but feel a pang of pity for the man's current wolf-like appearance. Of course, he had no intention of sympathizing with Morlun.

Every single member of the Inheritor Family deserved to die.

Upon hearing this...

Morlun, on the contrary, breathed a sigh of relief.

He wasn't afraid of death, since he could always be resurrected even if he died; however, if the information about the Inheritor Family was leaked...

That is the path to certain death.

If Ben were to find their happy old home, without a doubt, the Cloning Machine would be lost, and they would likely lose control of the imprisoned Master Weaver. The Inheritor Family might even face annihilation.

However, Ben quickly extinguished the flame of hope in Morlun's heart.

A large black hand covered Morlun's face directly. The Symbiote began to wriggle, and tentacles, like charging cable connectors, burrowed into the skin of his brain.

The sudden, sharp pain caused Morlun's pupils to contract, and he let out a mournful cry.

"It's a bit disgusting, but it's unavoidable in order to access your memories."

Who would say they're disgusting?

Super-Kill protested, the Symbiote had already invaded Morlun's mind.

For most Symbiote, forcibly reading the memories of a host or others is an absolute red line, contrary to the noble virtues of Cosmic Knight. But for Super-Kill Killer, born from Venom, this is a trivial matter.

Ben's moral compass is already quite flexible, let alone Venom's.

That guy has absolutely no morals.

Morlun felt as if a hole had been punched in his brain, and a monster called Super-Kill had crawled in, rampaging through his mind and violently smashing all his memories.

He wanted to resist, but this was his weakest moment. His already unclear mind was instantly crushed by the Super-Kill, and then his eyes rolled back, turning him into a dazed look.

"Looks like he's gone mad."

Super-Kill silently retracted its tentacles, its tone devoid of any sympathy.

In that brief moment, he witnessed countless Spider-Man being tragically killed or eaten by Morlun. Many of them were even fully conscious as they watched Moron devour them, their flesh being slowly eroded away.

The Inheritors wasn't even trying to maintain the freshest taste; he was simply there to enjoy Spider-Man's pained and terrified expression.

"It's Maltruant."

"I can't believe that guy showed up too. Let me think... what other villains haven't appeared yet? Dagon?"

Ben ignored Super-Kill's words.

While the Dagon is powerful, it's far less dangerous than Maltruant, a thoroughly ambitious man who nearly destroyed all worlds. Now that he's entered the Marvel Universe, which is far more dangerous than The Ben 10, he might become an even bigger problem.

"Unfortunately, Morlun also knew very little. Maltruant was too cautious and revealed nothing."

Furthermore, Ben checked the Nemetrix and discovered that Maltruant seemed to have removed all natural enemies that could threaten him.

Clearly, that guy didn't intend for his Inheritors to become a threat to him.

Ben didn't care much about the genetic data of predators, but he had to admit that he could replicate the genes of these predators and raise them in the Null Void Realm, letting those criminals experience the feeling of being hunted.

Natural enemies are themselves a part of nature.

"And we now know the Inheritors's stronghold,"

"Finally, we can wipe these guys out in one fell swoop."

Ben glanced down at the Ultimatrix: "The watch still needs charging, and it's highly unlikely it can transform into Alien X. Modifying the Nemetrix will also take some time."

Ultimatrix would most likely be unable to withstand Alien X's energy, a fact Ben aware of.

He also wanted to use Alien X's power to break the curse on the Spider-Man and resurrect the Spider-Man who died in the war.

This necessitates the use of a modified Nemetrix.

In addition, Solus, who possesses Cosmos Power, is also a problem.

However, at this moment, Super-Kill surprisingly showed some backbone. "Don't worry about Solus, I have a way to deal with him."

"Um?"

"Wasn't I searching the Symbiote ' memories? Guess what I found?" Super-Kill narrowed his eyes and revealed a lewd smile. He was an impatient person and didn't wait for Ben to guess before revealing the answer himself.

"Captain Cosmos's Cosmic Spirit is actually a kind of alternative Symbiote!"

You mean?

Ben immediately understood what he meant.

"That's right!" Super-Kill exclaimed excitedly, his mouthful of sharp teeth protruding like a little black monster from the animated film "Star Cat." "I... I'm Symbiote too! And theoretically, the most superior Symbiote! So, I can turn around and devour that Enigma Force!"

"It's time for the Inheritors to know what it's like to be born with a system of restraint!"

"Are you sure you can do it?" Ben asked rhetorically.

It wasn't that he didn't trust Super-Kill, but he was worried that this guy would be influenced by Venom's unreliable personality and become prone to boasting.

The Super-Kill moment indicated that he had been insulted again.

"Big brother, I am you!" he said, patting his chest angrily. "Even if I'm affected by the Venom, I'm still you! Don't be so unreliable, okay?!"

"Even if we take a step back and assume the worst, I can use the Enigma Force to replenish the Ultimatrix's energy."

Upon hearing this, Ben nodded.

As for Morlun...

Ben did not kill him immediately.

Killing him now would be too easy on him. Even if he dies, he'll return to the Cloning Machine, be fully resurrected, and reveal the secret that the Inheritors's lair has been exposed. Killing him now isn't worthwhile.

Ben pulled out the Null Void Projector and sent Morlun into that prison of despair.

Besides Morlun, Ben also temporarily sent the forty-meter-long Battle Soul Divine Sword to the Null Void Realm.

"Now, it's time to deal with the Inheritors!"

Spider-Verse 000.

Under the watchful eye of the imprisoned Weaver Master, several lives began to be born in the Cloning Machine, and then, as if injected with growth hormones, they grew rapidly, slipping out in the shape of adults.

"Oh shit!"

"Damn Morlun!"

The first thing Daemos said after landing was to berate his brother.

"He doesn't even care about us! We'll kill him sooner or later!"

"Give up, Daemos. You were never a match for Morlun, and now you have even less of a chance," Bora, her face pale. Being killed twice in such a short time was a torment to her spirit.

Fortunately, this time death was very swift; she didn't even feel how scorching the flames were before her body was burned to ashes.

"Such a terrible attack, it wasn't just us who died; those vermin certainly couldn't withstand it," Ryan said dignifiedly, having donned a black tuxedo. "The Bride is probably dead too. The prophecy we've strived to break for generations is now down to its final step."

Upon hearing this, everyone except Daemos showed barely suppressed excitement on their faces.

"Are only descendants left?"

"Father also wiped out that guy from Universe 13, we have nothing left to stand in our way." Jennix clenched his fists, almost jumping up.

However, Daemos chuckled and said, "That's not necessarily true."

He glanced at Bora and Brix, but before he could continue, the siblings seemed to realize what Daemos meant. Their excitement vanished, replaced by fear.

If it's that person...

It was indeed a great danger to his elder brother.

but,

The two composed themselves. "I believe Morlun can definitely win."

"I also hope he wins, otherwise we'll be in big trouble," Daemos said jokingly, arms crossed.

"I believe it too." Jennix pulled out a pair of protective glasses and put them on his forehead. He was a scientist from the Inheritor Family. "I checked that device for Morlun. All the genes inside came from ferocious predators, just like our family. Besides, you saw it yourself. Even if Morlun lost, the Cloning Machine wouldn't stop working."

These words immediately relieved Bora and Brix.

Daemos pursed his lips in displeasure and said, "I hope so."

Ryan, on the other hand, remained calm and gave everyone a much-needed boost of confidence.

"No matter what, we still have our father."

"I believe he will definitely be able to return with his last descendants."

As they were talking, the spatial tunnel suddenly opened, and a dark figure walked in.

"It's time to go home."

Solus held a still-crying baby in his hand, looking around at the chaotic ruins with a satisfied expression, as if he had just had sex.

After killing Cosmic Spider-Man, he didn't immediately return to his own universe, but instead began searching for his "descendants."

In fact, he had already learned the true identities of the Spider-Men, the Bride, and the Descendants through the Weaver Master, but he wasn't in a hurry to eliminate the Spider-Man; he was simply enjoying it all.

However, Maltruant's appearance brought him some pressure.

Now is not the time to play around with bedbugs.

It's time to end it all and turn our attention to the true Multiverse.

"Morlun went to deal with the allied Spider-Man, and the Bride was among them. I believe he's already succeeded. The ceremony is just one step away; soon, all the Spider-Man will be destroyed."

Although he was a little reluctant, he licked his lips regretfully, as if reminiscing about a dish he could never taste again.

Solus snapped his fingers.

A time tunnel appeared before his eyes.
