Chapter 194 Solus
"Then should we increase manpower? After all, he sounds very important," Spider-Man 2099 asked.
"Of course," Yang Le nodded.
"However, I don't recommend doing so, because I have already asked Franklin Richards to guard them. Sending more manpower is just a waste of manpower."
The reason why Yang Le didn't bring the Fantastic Twins with him was to have them guard the Base Camp and protect important people. After all, if any of the three special Spiders are missing, the Ritual cannot be held.
"Gathering Divine Power?" Doctor Octopus asked.
Yang Le didn't speak, just nodded.
"That's great. Having Franklin there is indeed reassuring." The other Spider-Men also breathed a sigh of relief. Since there is a Big Shot in charge, they don't need to worry.
After all, if even Franklin Richards can't stop them, there's no use in them going.
"Don't be happy too soon," Doctor Octopus interrupted everyone's conversation. "Our Top Priority now is to find the remaining two special Guys before the Inheritors, and it's best not to hand over even one to them."
"Doctor Octopus is right," Spider-UK nodded in agreement.
"We need to send people to Earth-616 Universe to bring Kaine and Silk over for Protection."
"I'll go!" "Count me in." "Me too."
The Spiders scrambled to sign up. They are not cowards, and they would definitely rush to take on any Mission.
Penny looked at 616 Peter beside her and asked, "Aren't you from Earth-616 Universe? Don't you know those two people?"
"The Spider who found me said I'm from Earth-616B Universe." 616 Peter scratched his head. "This one letter difference makes a big difference."
"We don't need too many people," Doctor Octopus signaled the Spiders not to get excited.
"Too many Spider-Men might attract their attention. That Universe doesn't have a Cosmic Spider-Man in charge."
"It seems you already have a suitable candidate," Spider-UK asked.
Doctor Octopus didn't answer, but looked at Yang Le, the meaning was self-evident.
"It seems you and I have the same Idea," Yang Le said. Yes, he also felt that he was the best candidate. Without the Spider Totem, he definitely wouldn't attract the attention of the Inheritors.
As for why Yang Le didn't directly attack the Inheritors' Lair, it's because of the Inheritors' special nature. The Inheritors themselves also possess Totem Power. Their Totem is called Vampire Totem, which can absorb all Strength. In the original story, even a Cosmic Spider-Man was completely drained by Patriarch Solus and turned into a Dried Corpse.
This made Yang Le have to be careful. You know, that's Universe Power, which is considered top-tier in Marvel. So, for caution's sake, Yang Le decided to Collect all three special Spiders first, and then consider making a big move.
Although Doctor Octopus didn't know as much information as Yang Le, the conclusion he reached was similar to Yang Le's. He also felt it was better to be safe. Moreover, Mechanical Spider had said that Yang Le was powerful and had once defeated two Inheritors single-handedly. If he encountered any danger, he could basically solve it. Undoubtedly, he was the best candidate now.
But even the strongest person can have times when they are stretched thin. Doctor Octopus never puts all his Business on one person, so he decided to assign a few more people to Yang Le.
"It just so happens that you people from Universe 65B can go together. You have the least Spider content and are also quite strong," Doctor Octopus said.
"Great minds think alike." Yang Le smiled and extended his Right Hand, wanting to shake hands with Doctor Octopus. Doctor Octopus frowned, but finally shook it. It can only be said that Peter's Memory and Anna had changed him many, if it were in the past, shaking hands would definitely have been impossible.
"Time is of the essence, let's set off quickly." Yang Le looked at Spider-UK, who immediately handed over a Spider Bracelet. That was their Travel Device.
Under Spider-UK's guidance, Yang Le manipulated the Wristband, and soon a Portal opened.
Yang Le waved to signal everyone to follow, and then took the lead to walk into the white Portal.

"Splash!"
Accompanied by the sound of water, Daemos fell out of the Cultivation Pod and landed on the Ground with a thud.
He subconsciously touched his Forehead. He hadn't died in a long time. He had even forgotten the Feeling of Death. Relying on centuries of devouring, he thought that even if he knew the Spider Totem had disappeared, he would never experience that Feeling again.
"You woke up slowly this time, my brother."
A familiar Sound, it was the voice of Daemos's only Family member he wouldn't find annoying. Although he couldn't say he liked it very much, it was at least better than other Family members.
"How long have I been asleep, Jennix?" Daemos asked, standing up and taking the Clothes from the other person's Hand.
"One minute longer than last time." Jennix stood respectfully beside Daemos.
Unlike other Family members, he was weak in Strength and not suitable for going out hunting. He generally managed the Home's logistics and Technology, so he could only rely on Prey brought back by others to satisfy his hunger. Facing the eldest son Daemos, he was naturally respectful.
"Is that so." Daemos put on his Clothes and walked out of the Cultivation Room.
"Is Father Home? I have some Business I want to discuss with him."
"Father is of course at Home. He is waiting for dinner in the Restaurant." Jennix followed behind Daemos.
"Is that so, it seems he might be disappointed this time," Daemos said.
"Yes, Bora and Brix haven't brought back Prey either." Jennix sighed. It seemed they would go hungry today. Even if Morlun brought back Prey, Father wouldn't generously share it with them.
"I have a Problem, brother." Jennix observed Daemos's expression.
"Speak, Jennix," Daemos said expressionlessly.
"My Locator shows that you died in the same Universe. Who exactly was it that could take care of the three of you in one go?" Jennix asked cautiously.
"That's exactly what I'm going to tell Father next." Daemos didn't answer directly, and instead quickened his Footsteps after speaking.
Seeing this, Jennix didn't ask further and continued to follow respectfully behind Daemos.
Passing through the Corridor, climbing the Stairs, the two brothers finally arrived at their Destination, in front of a thick wooden Door engraved with patterns and exquisitely crafted.
Behind this Door was the only place where the Inheritors Family would gather, their Dining Room.
Daemos pushed open the Gate, and what came into view was a long wooden Dining Table, on which were placed three huge Golden Discs, with exquisite patterns carved around the edges of the discs.
At the end of the Dining Table sat a person, with a strong Body and an old and majestic face. It was their Father, Patriarch Solus of the Inheritors Family.
The dim Light from the candles hid their Father's expression in the darkness, but without looking, the two brothers also knew that their Father's Mood was not very good.
