Like a God

Like a God

At that moment, the scene fell silent, and shock appeared in everyone's eyes.

Eddie was not much calmer. After gaining Venom, even though he had not thought much about it, deep down he had still believed himself to be special—until he met the person before him...

Unlike Venom's abilities, whether it was the blue beam of light or the method of reflecting bullets, each seemed incredibly powerful. The other party had done nothing more than raise a hand, yet he had resolved everything.

It was as if an overwhelming aura rose from him, making them suffocate. It seemed that any resistance they put up would be futile...

Tris and the others panted heavily, cold sweat beading on their foreheads as they felt the same pressure.

Life Foundation.

Drake and the others stared fixedly at the screen, their emotions churning.

A creature more perfect than a human bonded with a symbiote? That astonishing presence and power made him seem like a god! Venom inside Eddie took a long while to recover from his disbelief.

Such a powerful host? With power that could so easily settle everything, how did he look anything like a human?

His other half had actually bonded with someone like that? At that moment, no matter how unwilling he was, Venom could not help but feel jealous.

While they were still in shock, the sonic equipment had been destroyed, and the Venom in Su Yao's right hand returned to normal.

Black liquid slowly wriggled as it emerged from Su Yao's right hand.

"I told you that you'd regret this!"

A somewhat savage smile appeared on Venom's tiny face.

He laughed. "When I bonded with him, I didn't give him power. On the contrary, he gave power to me. You can't possibly understand that feeling—the feeling that has me utterly obsessed!"

As he spoke, he turned toward Tris and the others and cackled. "Vermin, kneel! You can't win!"

"You can't even imagine how powerful my host is!"

Although Venom himself had been frightened by the blue beam and the reflected bullets earlier, shocked by the strength of his host, it did not stop him from throwing his weight around now.

Life Foundation.

Drake hesitated for a moment before ordering through the communicator, "Open fire!"

Hearing this, Tris and the other guards suppressed their fear, gritted their teeth, and raised their guns.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Silver bullets spun through the air, whistling toward their target.

Then, an even more suffocating sight appeared.

This time, the Man in Black did not even raise his hand. He merely stood quietly where he was.

The bullets fired at him actually changed direction and reflected back at them!

Reflection Shield Experience +1

Reflection Shield Experience +1...

"Ahhh..."

For a time, screams rang out without end.

The more bullets they fired, the more miserable they became. Some were even struck in the heart by the reflected bullets, twitching as they collapsed to the ground.

Even those with lighter injuries were not doing much better. Bloodstains covered their bodies, and they showed symptoms of blood loss.

At that moment, the Man in Black made them feel even more suffocated, and despair appeared in everyone's eyes.

Bullets being ineffective was one thing, but he had not even moved and had dealt with every bullet fired at him? Never before had they felt as suffocated as they did now. They also felt that he was undefeatable.

Not only them—even Venom, emerging from Eddie's body, had his mouth hanging open and his eyes widened round with shock at the sight.

Venom on Su Yao's hand forced down his shock and mockingly said, "Cackle, cackle! My abandoned other half, see that? This is the power of my great host!"

"You..." Venom on Eddie's body was infuriated, but he also felt envy and jealousy.

At that moment, police sirens sounded in the distance. It seemed someone had called the police.

Hearing the sirens, the mysterious Man in Black shifted slightly and walked away.

Seeing him leave, Eddie Brock could not hold back any longer. He shouted, "Who exactly are you?"

The Man in Black turned to look at him. Beneath the shadows cast by his hood, a pair of brilliant Golden Eyes entered his sight.

In a daze, Eddie felt as if he had seen the eyes of a god.

By the time he came back to his senses, the mysterious Man in Black had already gone far away. Only a savage laugh from the Venom on him drifted over from afar.

"We'll meet again!"

"Look forward to it..."

The mysterious Man in Black's figure gradually disappeared into the distance.

Just then, a sound from nearby caught Eddie's attention. Before he could react, a layer of pitch-black Venom Suit covered his body.

A bullet sank into the Venom Suit.

"Humans!"

Venom let out a frustrated roar, then charged at Tris and the others with a roar amid their panicked stares.

Splat! Splat!

A series of skull-crunching sounds rang out.

Once everything had quieted down, only corpses littered the ground.

Life Foundation.

Drake and the others watching the battle were now both panicked and furious.

Drake slammed his right fist against the table, his face filled with unwillingness.

Although Eddie had killed most of his people, the figure dressed in black and shrouded in mystery involuntarily surfaced in his mind.

Having moved away from the battlefield, Eddie was now talking with Venom.

"Who was he?" Eddie muttered in confusion.

He searched through his memories and vaguely felt that the person was familiar, yet he could not remember why.

"Hmph, Eddie, why think so much? My other half said you'd meet again. You'll find out then."

Venom said mockingly.

Looking at Venom's savage appearance, Eddie asked, "What exactly are you?"

"My name is Venom." Venom circled around Eddie and said in a hoarse voice, "Your body belongs to me."

"You just bit off someone's head?"

"I needed to restore my strength..."

"Listen carefully, Eddie. You didn't find us—we found you. You're like my mount." Venom declared his ownership.

As Eddie walked, he said, "Like a parasite?"

"Your attitude toward me is very different from how my other half treats that guy in black. I saw how attentive he was, like a sheepdog..."

Eddie was somewhat annoyed and spoke bluntly.

Venom: "..."

Suddenly, he noticed something.

"Parasite? Eddie!"

Venom roared.

As they bickered, Eddie and Venom continued their conversation.

"Where are you taking me?"

"We're going to find Drake's rocket. You know that man."

"How do you know I know him?"

"I know everything, Eddie."

"Really?"

"I know everything about you. I'm in your head."

"Will you eat people again when you're hungry?"

"Very likely."

"Oh my God!"

"We came to Earth for food. Cooperate obediently, and you'll stay alive. Those are my terms..."

Eddie's feelings were complicated.

Just then, a phone rang on him.

Eddie took out his phone and saw that it was a colleague calling.

The moment he answered, a woman's questioning voice came from the other end.

"Eddie, we've been waiting for you downstairs at the Life Foundation for ages. Where are you?!"

Eddie said awkwardly, "Let me explain..."

Meanwhile, the Man in Black in Eddie's eyes was walking through a secluded alley.
