As the Particle Collider's repair progress accelerated, the Spider-Men also agreed to the trade.
"Guys, I'll remember the experience of fighting alongside you for the rest of my life," Shadow Spider-Man said, his voice deep and magnetic.
"Me too, brother," Qiuku Spider-Man replied, his tone full of reluctance.
"It's not like we'll never see each other again, why be so sad? We're all employees of the same company now, maybe we can even visit each other," Spider-Ham said optimistically.
"Miles, you worked hard this time," Blond Spider-Man patted Miles' shoulder.
"I didn't do anything, instead, I broke your key, otherwise so many things wouldn't have happened, and your home wouldn't be gone," Miles lowered his head guiltily.
"Wait, what do you mean my home is gone?!" Blond Spider-Man's eyes widened.
"Damian, this is for you, a game from my World," Penny handed Damian a USB drive.
"These are for you, remember to water them regularly, they can guard the house," Damian gave Penny five seeds.
"Thank you, I'll take good care of them," Penny took the seeds and put them in her backpack.
The Particle Collider restarted, this time the particle impact was much gentler than before.
"Goodbye, friends."
"See you again if there's a chance."
"I'm leaving first."
"Damian, goodbye."
As the four Spider-Men disappeared, the Particle Collider shut down again.
However, this time Richard took the entire Particle Collider to Hell and sent Tony and the others back as well.
"Octopus Lady, you stay here; someone will come to take over Kingpin's assets in a while.
Peter, you can change to a new identity with the company's people then, you can continue to be Spider-Man or a scientist.
Miles, you go to school normally, and I'll arrange your tasks after you graduate."
"Yes, thank you, Boss," Peter and Miles nodded, this was exactly what they had hoped for.
Octopus Lady couldn't wait for them to leave, but did she forget something?
After explaining everything, Richard also returned to the main World with Venom, Gwen, and Damian.
Having been here once, Hell had already established a passage with this World, which could serve as a transit station for the timeline to maintain consistency on both sides.
As soon as they came out of the portal, the little ones rushed over and pinned Damian to the ground.
"Damian, are you alright!"
"You're finally back!"
"Wuwuwu…"
Damian looked as if her life was over, she squeezed out a few words with difficulty from her throat: "I'm suffocating."
However, the little ones were in a state of excitement and didn't hear her cry at all.
It was Venom who watched for a while, then stepped forward and pulled the little ones up.
Venom put his hands on his hips, feigning anger, and said, "You guys, if Damian gets crushed, who will replace her then?"
Only then did the little ones stand aside sheepishly, their faces still beaming with joy.
Pamela took Gwen's hand and asked worriedly, "Gwen, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, Sister Pamela," Gwen shook her head, her eyes occasionally glancing at Richard, her cheeks slightly flushed.
"It seems like you've had a long story, can you tell me about it?"
"...Mm," Gwen softly hummed, her thoughts seemingly returning to those thrilling moments.
"Richard, I protected them well," Black Phoenix, seeing the little ones' actions, also learned and jumped onto Richard, clinging to him like an octopus.
"Then you've really worked hard, fortunately you were here, so I could leave with peace of mind," Richard stroked Black Phoenix's hair.
"Is there a reward then?"
"What do you want?"
"Today I want to try Jean's memory... Wuwuwu!" Black Phoenix was covered by Jean before she could finish her sentence, and pulled off Richard.
"Richard, I protected them well."
Black Phoenix, seeing the little ones' actions, also learned and jumped onto Richard, clinging to him tightly like an octopus.
"Then you've really worked hard, fortunately you were here, so I could leave with peace of mind," Richard stroked Black Phoenix's hair, his tone gentle.
"It's not hard, is there a reward?" Black Phoenix blinked, full of anticipation.
"What do you want?"
"Today I want to try Jean's memory... Wuwuwu!" Black Phoenix was covered by Jean's mouth before she could finish her sentence, and pulled off Richard.
"She didn't do anything, so no reward is needed," Jean's face showed a trace of panic.
"???" Richard looked at them in confusion.
"No, I want to try," Black Phoenix struggled and shouted.
"I haven't even tried it, what are you trying," Jean said angrily, directly dragging Black Phoenix away.
???
At this moment, Hela walked over, stomped hard on Richard's foot, and snorted coldly.
"Liar!" Richard was stunned, the matter of tricking her into a contract was exposed, but it didn't matter, once the contract was signed, regretting it was useless.
"So what? The contract is made." "I want to re-sign the contract, help me return to Asgard, the previous contract is not affected, you have that strength," Hela stared at Richard with burning eyes.
"I refuse. It's too troublesome," Richard crossed his arms and refused without hesitation.
It's good that it's not about the contract... to talk.
"You..." Hela was furious, her face instantly turned gloomy.
"Hela, what do you want to do after regaining your power?"
"Of course, to take revenge on Odin, conquer the Nine Realms, and then gather strength to rule the entire Universe."
"And then what? What do you want to do after conquering the Universe?"
"After conquering the Universe, of course I want to..." Hela was a bit speechless, her goal had always been to rule the World, but she really hadn't thought about what to do after ruling.
She frowned, deep in thought, and for a moment she didn't know how to answer.
"You've never had your own goal, conquering the Universe was also given to you by Odin, think carefully, what do you truly want?" Richard looked at her, his gaze deep.
Venom pulled Pamela and Gwen to watch the show.
It had been a long time since he had seen him tricking people.
"I've got it, I want to take revenge on Odin, that's my current goal," Hela raised her chin, her eyes firm.
"This can indeed be a short-term goal, but there's still one problem, even if you regain your power, you can't beat Odin."
"Then you..."
"You wouldn't want me to take revenge for you, would you? Is that still revenge? And does the proud Goddess of Death also have a day to ask others for help?" Richard's words made Hela hold back her words.
She said stubbornly, "Of course not, I'm just telling you to prepare to lift the seal in advance."
"Don't worry, there are still ten years, during this time you should think carefully about how to spend the next ten years.
Are you going to live every day in revenge, with Odin on your mind?
Or experience another kind of life, and find your own goal?" Richard stroked Hela's hair.
Hela didn't notice his movements and fell into deep thought.
Another kind of life? But it seems I only know how to fight. Hela frowned, her eyes revealing confusion and bewilderment.
She was used to fighting on the battlefield, used to conquering with power, and she had never thought about other ways of life, nor did she know how to think about them.
