Watching Venom cling to him like chewing gum and beg, Su Yao felt somewhat helpless.

If this guy had shown any aggression, he would have dealt with him immediately. But with Venom acting like such a desperate suck-up, he found it harder to handle.

For the moment, he shifted his attention and looked toward Jack and Albert.

"Don't, don't kill us!"

Seeing him look over, Jack hurriedly begged for mercy.

Su Yao glanced at the two terrified men and paid no heed to their pleas.

Since they had already intended to kill him and claim the bounty on his head, they had no one to blame but themselves for dying. They had brought it upon themselves.

The next moment, before the horrified eyes of Jack and Albert and Venom's astonished gaze, Black Wave appeared in Su Yao's hand.

Black Particle Experience +1 Black Particle Experience +1

Two Black Particles shot out like bullets toward Jack and Albert.

Already on guard, the two noticed something was wrong and immediately jumped aside, narrowly dodging the two Black Particles.

Black Particle Experience +1...

No matter how well they dodged, they could not evade the next four consecutive Black Particles. Their chests were pierced one after another.

Blood flowed. Before dying, Albert said unwillingly, "You'll be joining us in hell soon enough!"

"Even if you kill us, this won't be over. Your bounty will keep rising, and stronger people will come after you!"

"I just hope you don't run into one of the top-ranked assassins, or else..."

Albert stopped breathing with a bitter smile. As for Jack, after shouting a vicious curse, he soon followed in Albert's footsteps.

Seeing the two men dead, Venom hurriedly said, "Human, you don't need to care about what they said. As long as you merge with me, everything can be resolved!"

"We can tear apart anyone standing in our way!"

At last, his little black face filled with pleading as he said, "Please, human, merge with me. We'll definitely be the strongest!"

Listening to Venom chatter away beside him, Su Yao's head began to ache.

Destroying him did not seem right, but if he threw him away, he would probably keep clinging to him...

After thinking for a moment, he decided to discuss it with the Venom before him.

"A complete symbiosis with you is impossible..." Su Yao said slowly.

Venom's little black face filled with disappointment. Just as he was about to continue begging, Su Yao said something that delighted him.

"However, I can let you bond with my right arm, if you agree and can manage it..."

Su Yao looked calmly at Venom.

He had thought this through. Venom was not entirely without benefits, and the advantages of bonding with him were obvious.

If it was only one arm, he could accept it. But bonding with his entire body and forming a complete symbiosis was something Su Yao rejected outright.

With a complete symbiosis, if Venom wreaked havoc inside his body, it would truly be difficult to deal with.

Moreover, complete symbiosis meant that this thing would occupy his brain as well. Without Mind Power, Venom might learn his memories, which was absolutely unacceptable to Su Yao.

But if it only bonded with one arm, even if something happened, it would not be too serious! Even if Venom had thoughts of causing trouble, it would trigger the Light Energy in his body and immediately draw his attention.

If Venom wanted to cause trouble, he would first have to get past the Light Energy! "I'm warning you, if you go beyond my right arm..."

Before he could finish the warning, Venom excitedly shouted, "Human, I agree!"

As he spoke, his pitch-black liquid body moved, immediately jumping onto Su Yao's right arm before rapidly seeping inside.

Su Yao did not feel much. He only sensed something entering his arm and felt that something had taken up residence within his right arm.

He had a feeling that as long as he wanted to, he could drive Venom out at any time.

Other than that, he felt nothing else, nor did he feel any discomfort.

Symbiotes really are unusual... Su Yao murmured inwardly.

While Su Yao was feeling things out, Venom, who had entered his body, was also carefully sensing everything.

Previously, they had only bonded for one or two seconds, so he had not felt things clearly. Now that they had almost completely merged, he finally fully sensed the difference.

"Human, you're special—powerful. I've never encountered anyone like you!"

At that moment, Venom's heart was filled with shock.

If other humans were weak and frail to the extreme, then Su Yao was extraordinary, unique! Warm sunlight energy, mysterious unknown cells...

Everything gave him strength unlike anything he had ever experienced before. He felt stronger than he had ever been! He felt power coursing through his entire body, while his depleted energy was being replenished at a rapid pace! In his fascination, he instinctively used a symbiote's power, trying to copy the power of this mysterious host.

Then something unexpected happened! To his shock, he found that the copying had failed! The Mysterious Factor in Cells of this host exceeded what he could copy or understand...

"Damn it, I've never seen anything like this!" Venom said in astonishment.

Why was that? Beyond that, he discovered something else that he found unbelievable.

These mysterious cells were actually eroding him! Strands of mysterious power emerged, slowly eroding and transforming him! Venom began to doubt his life.

Venom had always been the one to erode others, yet one day he was being eroded by someone else?! Was he the symbiote, or was this human the symbiote? Venom's emotions shifted, but in the end, he could not bear to leave this human's body.

This host was simply too perfect. He had never encountered a better or more flawless host! Of course, beyond that, he unexpectedly discovered that although he could not clone the Mysterious Factor in Cells, he had gained some other things.

He did not know whether he had cloned them or whether they came from the erosion of those cells with the mysterious factor, but it seemed that he could absorb sunlight now?

A pitch-black liquid tentacle extended from the surface of Su Yao's arm.

As sunlight shone upon the tentacle, Venom could feel warmth spread through his entire body. Even his expended stamina seemed to be recovering? Venom was overjoyed.

In his delight, the tentacle shifted, quickly turning into a little black head.

"This is incredible!"

Venom cried out in delight.

Then he excitedly said, "You're special, unique, completely different from those ordinary humans. It's like you're not even the same kind of creature!"

"I've never seen anyone so... so..."

He began to stammer incoherently.

Su Yao gave him a somewhat surprised look. After asking a few questions, he roughly understood the situation.

Absorbing sunlight was nothing much. It was probably because of the Energy Absorption ability.

"Mysterious Factor in Cells?"

Su Yao immediately thought of Sunshine Pervades.
