Parker Mutates and the Symbiote Ship Crashes

Hum... hum... hum!

Just then, the phone beside the recliner vibrated, and if nothing unexpected, it was Parker calling.

An unknown number? At this hour, that means Parker, right?

A faint smile touched the corner of Chen Xi's mouth. He mutated so fast?

Sure enough, the moment the call connected, Parker's cry for help came through from the other end.

"Mr. Chen, I'm sorry, I don't know if I'm rudely disturbing you, but my fever is burning me up and I don't know who else to call. Could you find someone to send me to the hospital? I don't want my uncle and the others to worry."

"No, no, no, Parker, if you trust me, then you must tough it out. You aren't running a fever; you're mutating."

"A mutant spider bit you in the web of your thumb, causing your mutant genes to be activated. Congratulations, you are going to become a mutant with superpowers."

Chen Xi talked sheer nonsense off the top of his head, directly cutting off all of Parker's retreating routes. Mutants would never be accepted by the authorities.

In the future, no matter how much S.H.I.E.L.D. or whatever other crap tried to win him over, they would never make Parker feel at ease; he would automatically become part of the monster faction.

"Ah? Really? I'll really get superpowers?"

Parker on the other end of the call instantly stopped having a headache or a sore back, and was instantly resurrected right on the spot...

Hearing his excited tone, Chen Xi also understood that he was truly more excited at this moment than if he had tasted his goddess's seafood.

For a chuunibyou teenager, superpowers were an obstacle that could never be bypassed; this was an eternal dream.

Parker, who desperately craved mutant abilities to flip his life around as a loser, had been bullied by his classmates to an unimaginable degree. He often fantasized in his dreams about suddenly possessing superpowers one day to make a successful comeback, and then kicking ass to become a superhero like Captain America Steve.

So Chen Xi naturally had to fulfill his wish. How lonely it would be if this world had no Spider-Man! He really liked this original Spider-Man; he was a saint!

Even if he turned evil, it was nothing more than awkward street dancing, buying a handsome suit, and combing his hair into a grown-up style!

He told Parker affirmatively, "Don't worry, after a sleep you'll find the world becomes different."

Although Parker was a bit of a chuunibyou, he still chose to believe what his idol said. He was practically obsessed with superpowers!

You are truly sinister.

The system suddenly expressed disdain, thinking this guy was full of sheer nonsense.

Ever since it had known him, every step this guy took seemed to carry lies and motives!

After hanging up the phone, Chen Xi shrugged, not caring at all about the system's disdainful words. Every man for himself and the devil take the hindmost! Growing up amidst cold looks and sneers, he had long since stopped being human!

"Why do you think mutants are so unwelcome in the mainstream world?"

Not answering the question, Chen Xi turned the tables and asked the system instead. However, the system did not understand the Marvel Universe; it was merely an intelligent program.

"I don't understand. Without investigation, one has no right to speak."

"The trouble is not with scarcity, but with inequality."

Chen Xi shook his head helplessly. This was the darkness of human nature.

You and your neighbor Xiaoming grew up together as good buddies, and both of you figured you would just get through life like this.

Yet you suddenly discover one day that Xiaoming is making a sudden comeback.

A mediocre person who used to be just like you can suddenly fly, possesses infinite strength, spews clouds and breathes mist, and even lives forever!

Jealousy devoured your friendship. You began to resent why he could pull off a loser's comeback while you remained mediocre.

Thus you also craved obtaining superpowers, but how could such a one-in-ten-thousand thing easily fall upon your head?

And so your dark human nature became irredeemable. Fired by the madness that if you couldn't have it, you would destroy it, you spread word everywhere about the dangers of mutants.

Therefore, losers just like you united together. After all, such losers made up the absolute majority, and mutants ultimately became street rats that everyone beat...

Was there really a difference in essence between Spider-Man and mutants?

None!

No matter what, they were both anomalies. Anyone with supernatural powers was entirely an anomaly, even if they were praised by people for a short time...

However many people loved Spider-Man becoming a good neighbor to New York, just that many people wished they could get rid of him quickly.

Chen Xi didn't want him to lean toward the Avengers, so it was better to just let him follow his own nature. He was Spider-Man!!

The system's data analysis was quite formidable, but it did not understand human nature. Sometimes, data deduction could not accurately capture the complexity of human nature.

Wanting humanity to maintain permanent rationality could only be an extravagant hope.

Ever since his destruction, Ross had stayed in the hospital for a long time, but no matter how many specialists there were, there was no way to repair his shattered eggs.

Naturally, he could not accept such an outcome, and even began to gradually go perverted, smashing things and cursing people at the drop of a hat. This also doubled his twisted and dark psychological state.

The most painful thing for a man was nothing more than this. He was sensitive enough to feel that everyone, including doctors, nurses, and soldiers, was laughing at him.

Even if someone merely turned their back to speak softly, he believed they were mocking and discussing him behind his back...

"Dammit! Dammit! Masked man! I will definitely make you pay the most tragic price!"

Ross roared like a madman, knocking over everything placed on the table, throwing the entire ward into chaos.

Such venting was completely meaningless, only making him even more irritable.

Suddenly!

After venting, he gradually calmed down, gnashed his teeth, lowered his eyelids, and made a decision. He was going to risk it all...

The weather outside gradually darkened, and Wanda also drove back in her little BMW Mini. Even though she had not become the Scarlet Witch, she still liked red clothing.

Looking at the peach-blossom-faced Wanda, Chen Xi still felt quite content inside. She had truly suffered too much in the past; perhaps a plain life now was the best destination.

It could be said from beginning to end that all the Scarlet Witch wanted was a cozy home. It was they who forced her step-by-step into the darkness.

"Let's go, let's go out to eat."

A gentle smile bloomed at the corner of Chen Xi's mouth as he spoke.

"Alright. I remember a hotpot restaurant just opened in Chinatown with a booming business. It must be delicious."

Wanda's eyes lit up, and she immediately chose the location. Over the years following Chen Xi, she had long been assimilated by him.

"Then let's go."

Chen Xi said, affectionately flicking her little nose.

Three days later, Chen Xi boarded Lockdown's spaceship and flew directly to hover above the airspace of Malaysia. With their technology, people wouldn't be able to detect them even in another hundred years.

At this moment, the spaceship carrying the Symbiote had just entered the atmosphere when an accident happened!
