Chapter 720: Mary Jane recovers, leaves the Spider-Man world

~7 min read 1,245 words

"Whoa—"

The winding, cracked ground made everyone retreat one after another. After bursts of tremors, dust filled the air. Everyone looked at the center in shock and let out screams of disbelief.

Su Quan stood high above, stepping on Mary Jane, who was sunken into the ground, and said indifferently: "It seems you still haven't recovered your memories."

"Beg me, and I'll tell you the truth!"

"You, you wish!"

Mary Jane's face was filled with pain and anger, her cold eyes seeming as if they wanted to kill, her voice incomparably firm.

Su Quan chuckled, lifted his foot, and controlled Mary Jane to slowly rise, floating in front of him with her limbs spread out.

He then raised his wrist and turned it gently.

"Hum!"

An invisible force landed on Mary Jane. Mary Jane was immediately struck as if by electricity, her whole body twitching, letting out a shrill scream.

The scene was somewhat unbearable to watch. The second-generation Green Goblin and Sandman, who were not familiar with Su Quan, looked on with unbearable expressions, their wariness and fear of Su Quan rising rapidly in their hearts.

This guy, his heart is truly cruel!

The cruel torture lasted for five or six minutes before finally stopping. Mary Jane hung her head, her body twitching slightly and unconsciously. Although she was not sweating, she looked as if she had just been fished out of water, very disheveled.

"No, impossible, this is impossible!!! I, I am actually an Earthling? I, I am—Mary Jane?!" Mary Jane muttered to herself, unable to believe it.

Su Quan used psychic power to break through the memory barrier left in her mind by Galactus, restoring her sealed memories.

Her brain consciousness was impacted, and the sealed memories were restored; this was also the reason why she had been in such painful agony just now!

"Mary Jane?"

"Are you Mary Jane?!"

Spider-Man pushed away the people in front of him in astonishment, rushed to Mary Jane in two or three steps, and took off his mask.

"It's me, Peter, Peter Parker—you, are you really Mary Jane? Why did you become like this?"

Mary Jane, having recovered her memories, naturally recognized her neighbor: "Peter, are Uncle Ben and Aunt May okay? I, is my home okay?"

"It's really you!"

Spider-Man was somewhat ecstatic, then turned his head and scolded: "Su Quan, hurry up and let her..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was thrown out through the air by Su Quan as if he were trash.

"Bang!"

Spider-Man smashed into a nearby street lamp; the lamp was bent by him, and he also fell to the ground with a thud.

Immediately afterward, an invisible gravity enveloped him, pinning him firmly to the ground, completely unable to move.

Su Quan ignored Spider-Man, who was already floating so high he couldn't find north, and said to Mary Jane decisively: "I'll help you return to your original state, and you'll follow me from now on."

Mary Jane looked up at Su Quan. Although she didn't speak, silence spoke louder than words; she agreed.

Becoming the Silver Surfer could certainly grant her powerful strength, but she was originally just an ordinary high school girl working in a fast-food restaurant, dreaming of becoming a Hollywood star.

On one side is her original appearance, on the other is the power to destroy the world—how to choose?

Of course, choose the appearance.

After all, being strong or not is temporary, but being pretty is for a lifetime. She didn't want to be a 'metal person' for the rest of her life.

Su Quan smiled brightly: "Beg me!"

Mary Jane was stunned, then whispered: "Beg you."

"Louder."

"Beg you! Beg you to help me!!!"

Su Quan chuckled, let Mary Jane float closer, and reached out to press against her heart, absorbing the cosmic energy in her body.

Under normal circumstances, even if all the cosmic energy in Mary Jane's body were absorbed, she couldn't return to her original state. After all, Galactus's transformation of his heralds was not as simple as just granting cosmic energy.

This kind of transformation was similar to biological conversion; it was a change in biological form and had no direct relationship with the cosmic energy in her body.

For example, if cosmic energy were compared to water, then if all the water in a human body were drained, the person would die, but the biological form would not change.

Therefore, absorbing cosmic energy is one thing, and returning to the original state is another; these are two operations!

"Thump!"

When Su Quan finished absorbing the cosmic energy and let her go, she had returned to her original appearance.

At the same time, she also lost the identity and abilities of the Silver Surfer, becoming an ordinary high school girl once again.

"Mary Jane!"

Seeing Mary Jane return to her original state, Spider-Man, who was pinned to the ground, had his face turn swollen and red, yet he remained incredibly excited.

To Spider-Man, Mary Jane was his neighbor goddess, but to Mary Jane, Spider-Man was merely an inconspicuous neighbor and classmate; there was no much interaction to begin with, let alone feelings.

To put it bluntly, this was Spider-Man's one-sided infatuation.

Spider-Man thought that because he had abilities and was no longer the loser who was bullied and harassed, he had the confidence to express his feelings.

Coupled with the influence of the symbiote Venom, his mentality was very inflated, and he naturally assumed that he was very charming and attractive, and that the person he liked must also like him!

No, that she should belong to him!

However, Mary Jane, whom Spider-Man regarded as his possession, merely glanced at him and then stood by Su Quan's side, ignoring him.

This coldness and indifference made Spider-Man instantly furious. He threatened Mary Jane on one side and Su Quan on the other, cursing extremely shamelessly and arrogantly.

"Scream."

"Make him shut up!"

Su Quan snorted coldly. Scream walked over without a word and unleashed a sonic blast at Spider-Man.

The sharp, piercing sonic waves made Spider-Man instantly scream and twitch in pain. The black suit covering his body rolled like boiling water, finally turning into a mass of black fluid and jumping off Spider-Man's body.

"Whoosh—"

Su Quan reached out his hand and directly sucked the symbiote Venom, which had turned into fluid, over to devour it.

Without the influence of the symbiote Venom, the dazed Spider-Man, gasping for breath, felt regret for his actions during this period.

"Let's go."

The farce ended. Su Quan called out, and he directly disappeared into thin air with his people, returning to their residence.

"Cindy, take Mary Jane home, leave some money for her mother, and when you return, we will leave this world." Su Quan instructed.

"Okay."

Silk nodded and left the residence with the somewhat reserved Mary Jane.

Su Quan made a trip and brought over the punk girl Lucy and Betty Brant.

By the time they returned, Silk had already brought back Mary Jane, whose eyes were red, and the others had also packed their luggage, ready to depart at any time.

As for Professor Curt Connors and Otto Octavius, who hadn't become the Lizard and Doctor Octopus, they wouldn't be taken along this time to avoid the trouble of going back and forth, which would affect the progress of their experiments.

When he returned with the mutants to the main Marvel world, he would pick them up then.
