Harry kept looking at Peter, as if he was hesitant to speak.

Lucas knew that Peter was not in the mood to pay attention to Harry's condition, so he took the initiative to wink at Harry, signaling him to come over.

While everyone was still resting, Lucas took Harry to a place a little further away where he could see everyone again.

Harry immediately asked impatiently: "What do those words of Peter mean? And what father said..."

"We can't know the details of those things in the past, but it is very likely that Norman murdered Peter's parents." Lucas briefly and clearly talked about the events of the previous generation, "As for why he did this, it should be In order to get the research from Peter’s parents, Norman wanted to sell that technology to the military, but Peter’s parents refused and resigned, and that’s what happened.”

"I don't know about this at all." Harry smiled bitterly, "That means Peter has been making friends with the son of his enemy, right..."

"Don't be too mentally burdened." Lucas said softly, "Peter knows this, and he doesn't want you to be under a lot of pressure, so don't worry about it."

"How could I...not care..."

"It's okay, Harry."

At some point, Peter came to the side of the two of them. He looked at Harry calmly, "You are you, Norman is Norman, I can tell the difference very clearly."

"Peter..." Harry pursed his lips, not knowing what to say.

Lucas patted Harry on the shoulder, "You just made your point very clear, we all understand it."

Harry smiled reluctantly and fell into deep silence again. Lucas and Peter looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly.

Compared with Kuoda's Peter, Harry has a delicate heart and is also more likely to fall into internal friction. In simple terms, he is prone to overthinking, but this matter is indeed not easy to solve. It is considered to be everyone's own personality. They had all said what they needed to say, and Harry could only figure out the rest.

After everyone's injuries were healed, they continued to explore the palace.

"How strange..." Lucas muttered.

"what happened?"

"Norman has discovered our invasion, but has done nothing to stop it. Why?" Lucas frowned and said in confusion.

Except for the narrow encounter with Norman at the beginning, the rest of the journey was smooth sailing. Except for the patrol robot they encountered, there were no more shadows to stop them.

"...It's confidence." Harry said, "Father, he has absolute confidence to control everything."

"Ha, if that's the case, then you're really confident." Mindy grinned with a warm smile, "Just right, I like to deal with such confident people."

"I see, I was underestimated." The curve of the corner of Lucas's mouth also straightened.

"Then repent severely." Peter said with fighting spirit.

Norman's palace is completely cold and mechanical. The silver-white steel makes up this huge building. The screen on the wall circulates boring chemical equations. There is a rotating DNA model in the corner. Except for the factory we saw at the beginning, everything here seemed extremely empty and unpopular.

After what happened to Norman just now, neither the chatty Peter nor the talkative Harry had any interest in speaking. As for Lucas, he was happy with such a quiet atmosphere.

"What's going on? You are all so silent." Mindy couldn't stand the suffocating feeling at first.

Lucas: "...There's nothing to say."

Harry: "Yeah."

Gwen could understand the current atmosphere, "Everyone is holding a fire, and it's normal to have no interest in chatting."

Peter nodded, "Mindy, are you bored? I can chat with you."

Mindy looked at Peter, who was theoretically the most angry person, suspiciously, "Let's forget it."

When Lucas pushed open a door, his vision suddenly opened up.

"Wow--" Someone exclaimed.

But no one said that the man was making such a fuss, because the scene in front of him was indeed a stunning scene, with large and small buildings looming among the clouds, and the golden sunlight turned into colorful rays of light scattered among the misty clouds through the Tyndall effect. It seems extremely dreamy.

"Norman's palace is so beautiful..." Mindy said complicatedly.

Gwen sighed and said regretfully: "Yeah, it's a pity that we are here to destroy this place."

"There is a strong smell of secret treasure coming from the front. It should be in the deepest building." Hope said.

"It's quite far...and it's hard to tell which one is the shortest path," Lucas said.

"The question is how are we going to get there?" Peter looked at the thick clouds worriedly.

Although the white clouds look very textured, anyone with some common sense knows that the essence of the cloud is just a ball of water mist, and stepping on it is undoubtedly suicide.

Peter tentatively shot a thread of spider silk towards the nearest building, and then everyone watched silently as the spider thread drew a perfect parabola and fell down.

"Can not be done……"

"There must be a way to get over it." Peter looked at Hope, "Hope, transform."

"Really, you guys really can't live without me." The pride in Hope's tone could hardly be suppressed.

"Because Hope is an important member of us." Lucas smoothed the hair skillfully.

"Humph, it's up to me." Hope turned into an airplane skillfully.

But just when everyone got on the plane and planned to arrive directly at the building where the secret treasure was located, the familiar siren sounded again, and the aircraft with red light surrounded them again.

"Alert, alert, an unknown flying object has been spotted taking off in the restricted area."

"Please land immediately, please land immediately, we will fire, the countdown begins, 10, 9, 8..."

"Hey, hey, Harry is here too, you machines should try to identify him!"

The aircraft was completely unmoved, "5, 4, 3..."

"We know it's here, we'll land right away!"

Hope returned to the ground and the craft immediately dispersed.

"Letting Hope take us this way doesn't look like it's going to work." Peter sighed dejectedly.

"Then what should we do? Do we really want to stop here?" Gwen was also very unwilling.

"It's too frustrating!" Mindy puffed up her cheeks.

Lucas looked at Harry, who had been thinking deeply, "Harry, do you have any ideas?"

"No." Harry came back to his senses, "I just thought of a possibility..."

He lifted his feet.

"Harry?!"

Harry stepped steadily above the clouds.

"do not?"

"Is that really the case..." Harry looked at the clouds under his feet with complicated eyes.

"It turns out you can step on it!" Mindy opened her eyes wide and jumped into the clouds in surprise.

Gwen followed closely and said novelly: "It's a little soft, it feels so strange..."

Peter couldn't help but raise his forehead when he saw this, "Really, no matter how many times, I feel that the rules in the palace are too liberal."

"I've already said it's a fantasy world, but you still need to have more imagination." Hope said.

"Obviously you didn't expect it at the beginning!"

"So, how did Harry know?"

Seeing everyone's curious eyes on him, Harry sighed, "This... is my father's palace after all. When I was a child, I once said that I wanted to be a pilot, want to touch the sky, and want to step on the ground. On the clouds..."

As he spoke, Harry's expression became more complicated, "I didn't expect that he would always remember it."

He lowered his eyes, "I can't even figure it out. What kind of person is my father..."

"Human beings are very complicated." Lucas looked at the confused Harry and said, "Norman has a father's love for you, but this does not mean that what he did is right. Harry, the world is not It’s all black and white, and there are many different standards for human judgment.”

Norman's wanton use and sale of the company's patents has indeed brought many economic benefits to the Osborne Group, but what about the researchers themselves? This is not a kind of oppression. Peter's parents were silenced by Norman just because they didn't want to betray their research. For this reason, the Phantom Thieves already had reasons to repent of Norman.

"Yes, from a worldly perspective, my father is indeed an out-and-out villain." Harry said in a daze.

At a certain moment, a green light flashed in Harry's eyes.

[I am you, you are me.

Here you gain a new bond.

As the saying goes, the wings of salvation free from bondage.

I, the moon mask, was born and bathed in the wind of blessing, and added more help to the invitation to salvation...]

moon?

Lucas was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect to get the news at this time, but... Moon's meaning was not very good.

"Continue along this road." Lucas glanced at Harry and said.

There is no real sense of stepping on clouds, and it is also full of traps.

"what!!!"

Gwen stepped in the air, and if Peter hadn't caught her, she would have fallen thousands of feet.

"What's going on?" Peter hugged Gwen, who was in shock.

"It seems like there are some places where you can't walk," Lucas said.

"Ah?" Mindy looked around, everything was white, "How can I tell the difference?"

Afraid of missing the mark, everyone stayed where they were in embarrassment.

"Let me try," Lucas said.

He once gained an ability called Hawkeye. As long as he concentrated...

Lucas's eyes became increasingly blue, as blue as if they were not human, but he had already seen through the reality beneath the clouds.

"I saw it," he said.

"Eh?"

"Just follow me."

Although I don’t know why Lucas can see through the reality of this cloud floor, the Phantom Thieves naturally trust their leader and follow Lucas honestly, step by step.

Lucas had chosen the road closest to the secret treasure as much as possible, but he still looked at the clouds and sighed, turned back to his companions and said: "There is no way to go directly there. It seems that we need to choose another way." ,for example……"

He took a few steps back and looked at the top of the building where they were, "How about jumping from the rooftop to where the secret treasure is?"

"Hmm... I think it's feasible." Peter gave a thumbs up, "This distance is no problem at all."

This is Spider-Man's confidence.

"Let me go up first and check the situation." Peter said confidently.

He can stand firmly on the wall without relying on any tools, and it's natural to go to the rooftop...

"Warning warning, unknown object found..."

"Oh - damn!" Peter landed helplessly and shrugged at everyone.

"Norman is indeed well prepared." Lucas once again focused on the building itself. "It seems we have only one way to go."

"This feeling of being vaguely controlled is really uncomfortable." Mindy muttered, "I feel like we've been leading the way in Norman."

"I also feel that Norman seems to have another purpose." Lucas said.

"Any other purpose?"

Lucas looked at Peter, "Don't you think he was deliberately irritating Peter by telling those past events?"

"Huh?" Peter pointed at himself in confusion, "Deliberately irritating me? Isn't what Norman said true?"

Lucas shook his head, "No, I mean, even if he really did what he said, why would he take the initiative to say it first, and then disappear after saying it? It seems like he is deliberately leading us to chase him.”

After Lucas said this, Peter also came to his senses.

"Yeah, when Norman gave the ultimatum before, he was clearly rejected by Harry. In the end, he brought up the betrayal, and then brought up my parents. Now that I think about it, it was really too deliberate." Peter frowned. , "But why? Why did Norman do this?"

Lucas said helplessly: "I'm not the omnipotent God. How do I know this? But since we also want to get Norman's secret treasure, we will have to confront Norman sooner or later. Let's take advantage of it now."

"Forehead……"

Seeing that several people still looked like cosmic cats, Lucas couldn't help but raise his forehead, "Should I not say this..."

"No, I'm just wondering how a smart person like you grows his brain." Mindy couldn't help but look at Lucas's head, "I haven't thought about these things at all."

"...In fact, it is also a very useful ability to intuitively realize that something is wrong."

"Ah? Are you praising me for being awesome?" Mindy's eyes lit up.

Lucas nodded naturally, "That's right."

"I think father may need something very important from Peter." Harry suddenly said, "Just like Lucas said, if not, then he has gone through too much trouble."

"What's on me?" Peter was even more confused. "Is there anything about me that Norman can miss?"

As for his parents' research, Peter had even less. The Parkers left too early and left nothing for young Peter.

"Don't delve into this yet, all the answers will be revealed one by one in the next journey." Lucas said, "No matter what Norman wants to do, all we can do is take away his secret treasure and let him change his ways! "
