The situation in the room was very strange. When Venom appeared, the first thing he said was, "Ugh..."
Spider-Man was shocked. He said angrily and aggrievedly, "You...even if we haven't had a pleasant cooperation, you can't do this, right? I thought we were friends!"
"I'm not..." Venom said with his mouth wide open. He pointed to Thor beside him and yelled, "Stay away from , damn it!"
Thor was also very angry. He said, "How dare you talk to like that! I am the son of the God of Gods, the prince of Asgard, and you are just a damn illegal immigrant!"
"I am not an illegal immigrant, you damn humans!"
"What does it have to do with humans?!" Spider-Man shouted at Venom, "Clearly, it's because you're rude!"
In short, the three sides started arguing loudly, and in the end, Matt, who had co with Spider-Man, stopped their quarrel with his cane.
He hit each of them lightly, and they stopped. Finally, the four of them sat in different directions around the coffee table. Venom sat closest to the door, followed by Thor on the left, Spider-Man on the right, and facing them was Matt.
"Let's talk about what's going on here." Matt brought the topic back to the point. "Previously, we followed the Bullseye lead and found out that Kingpin was apparently doing business related to the eternal life factor."
"We found out that Kingpin seed to have sold a batch of eternal life factor dicine to The Hand, but their business seed to have so problems, and the two sides fell out."
Peter continued his words, "The person in charge of the deal with The Hand was Bullseye. From him, we got information about a The Hand base. I've been monitoring their ninjas near that base for the past few days."
"The ninjas' daily task is to patrol New York. In the past, their patrol routes were fixed, but today, two ninjas went in the wrong direction. I followed them all the way here and found out that they wanted to kill you guys. What's going on?"
Matt's tone was still calm as he said, "The Hand is a very efficient organization. Although they kill people like crazy, their targets are clear and they won't kill anyone unimportant."
"How would I know why?" Thor also said with so doubts, "Are they coming after ? But I'm not an Earthling, I have nothing to do with anyone here, and I have no grudges with The Hand."
At this mont, all three of them focused their gaze on Venom. The huge body of Venom sat on the small sofa, looking a bit ridiculous.
His style was completely different from the other three. Although the other three were not ordinary people, they were at least humanoid. Among them was a black monster several ters high, which looked very strange.
Matt whispered to Spider-Man, "Is this the alien creature that you ntioned that was parasitic on you before?"
He looked at Venom up and down and said, "Are you sure that all the behaviors he does while parasitic in your body, such as urging you to do your howork, interfering with you and Gwen's love life, and preventing you from going out to play?"
Matt even began to doubt it himself. The style of this monster in front of him didn't seem like that of a family tutor.
"There are many more bad things I haven't told you!" Venom seed to be retaliating against Spider-Man for his disgust towards him. He added fuel to the fire and said to Matt, "When I play basketball with others, he wants to deliberately hit soone. When I'm at the convenience store checking out, he wants to run away without paying. He even stole and ate all of Gwen's cheese balls and all of Aunt May's chocolate cookies, without leaving any for anyone else!"
"I didn't eat them all! Didn't I leave a few pieces? And didn't those cookies end up in your stomach too? How can you bla ..." Venom opened his mouth with sharp teeth and yelled at Spider-Man.
"Stop arguing! Can we talk about the real issue?" Matt covered his forehead and said. Then he summarized, "I also think they are unlikely to co after Thor. Thor has only been here for a few days and has no relationship with The Hand. They shouldn't send ninjas to kill him."
"Then it's only..." Peter looked at Venom and said, "It must be you who caused trouble again."
"How would I know!" Venom had an attitude of refusing to admit it. Under Matt and Spider-Man's questioning, Venom reluctantly revealed what had happened before.
After leaving Spider-Man's body, Venom just wanted to find an ordinary person to parasitize and rest for a while to soothe his injured soul.
Originally, Eddie, the host, was okay. He was a very normal person, without tornadoes that happened ten tis a day, nor black tides that covered the sky. He didn't need to teach children to do howork. Venom's life was very peaceful.
But symbiotes could affect the emotions of their hosts. Venom's previous hosts, except for Spider-Man, who had a better temper, were not easy to deal with.
So when Eddie saw the Materials of the Life Foundation, his anger multiplied, and he successfully angered the boss of the Life Foundation, Drake, and lost his job. He was left penniless and had nothing to eat. Venom also had to endure hunger with him.
Originally, Venom planned to find a new host, but then Eddie moved in and Venom developed allergies, causing him to suffer from constant vomiting and diarrhea until Thor discovered him.
Speaking of which, Peter looked at Venom in confusion and said, "Allergies??? Aliens can have allergies!?"
Venom covered his throat and said, "I suspect that I am allergic to people with low IQs... *vomits*"
Spider-Man and Thor exchanged glances. Venom vomited again and said, "I've gotten worse since he moved in here because there are really a lot of people without brains here..."
"Especially after he moved in next door!!!" Venom opened his mouth wide and shouted at Thor, "You don't have a brain at all!!! You're a deadly allergen, stay away from !!!"
"Who do you think doesn't have a brain?!"
Seeing that they were about to argue again, Matt had to calm them down and said, "Well, since you're not feeling well, you should go back first. I want to ask your host sothing."
After a stalemate with Thor, the black sli retracted back into Eddie's body. He sat up from the sofa, holding his head and looking at the other three who were staring at him intently. He shook his head and said, "...What's going on? Who are you two?"
"I rember two black figures trying to kill , they looked like ninjas from an animation..."
"Well, they really are ninjas."
Then, Matt explained the current situation to Eddie.
Eddie slapped his forehead and said, "...Is that so?"
"...If they really have a reason to co and kill , it's probably because I offended Drake, the boss of the Life Foundation."
"If you're sure you haven't offended anyone else recently, then that's probably it."
"You offended the boss of the Life Foundation, but the assassin who ca to kill you is from The Hand, which ans they may have a cooperative relationship."
Matt sat on his seat and pondered for a while, then analyzed, "If there's anything that can link the Life Foundation and The Hand, it's probably the Eternal Life dicine."
"We found out that The Hand and Kingpin had a falling out recently, possibly because of the Eternal Life dicine. Kingpin sold a batch of Eternal Life dicine to The Hand, but this deal caused their falling out. Could there be a reason from the Life Foundation?"
Matt knocked on the floor with his cane and said, "It seems we have a new target for investigation. We need to find out what the relationship is between Kingpin, The Hand, and the Life Foundation."
Eddie coughed fiercely twice and said, "I have a plan."
The other three looked at him, and Eddie raised his head and gritted his teeth, saying, "Do you think I will just swallow my anger? They made lose my job and even sent people to kill ..."
His face was very gloomy, but his statent was very clear. He said, "I saw in the materials that the Life Foundation used holess people for human experints, and they are currently recruiting volunteers for Eternal Life dicine experints."
Eddie gasped for breath, seeming to be exhausted to the extre, but his tone was very fluent. He said, "We can go and volunteer, then infiltrate the Life Foundation's base and find out what they're really doing."
Eddie's calm tone was incredible, with a unique hoarseness and low pitch. He continued, "Except for and Drake, the three of you should all et the requirents for volunteers. Thor can disguise himself as a holess person, this kid looks very young and ets the requirents for disadvantaged groups, and you..."
Eddie looked at Matt and said, "You're blind, and you're also part of a disadvantaged group. The Life Foundation has experinted on blind people before."
"Whichever one of you can successfully infiltrate, we can work together. As for the two organizations you want to deal with, we can also find useful information from the Life Foundation."
"And there's a backup plan. Drake has been making quite a splash lately, he has accepted interviews from many dia outlets. I can get his whereabouts from my journalist friend. If all else fails, we can kidnap him."
"Also, the researcher from the Life Foundation who contacted my ex-girlfriend ntioned in the ssage about the legal disputes the Foundation had faced before, which could be another lead..."
"Furthermore, the Eternal Life Factor dicine cos from vampires. I t so police officers who participated in the invasion by vampires during my reporting. We can..."
He interrupted himself several tis and presented seven or eight plans almost without any omissions. He used all the clues available and after he finished, the whole room was silent for a minute.
Matt looked at Eddie and said, "Were you really a journalist?"
"Of course, I..." Eddie said, but he also paused for a mont. He didn't know why he suddenly ca up with so many plans. "These plans just ca to my mind, and I don't know why..."
"It seems that you are very talented," Matt sighed.
"I think the first plan is the most feasible," Peter evaluated. "The three of us can apply as volunteers, and we will definitely get selected. We can just make ourselves look very miserable."
"I think the first and second plans can be carried out simultaneously," Matt was more cautious. "It is important to infiltrate the Life Foundation to find the materials and clues, but it is also important to keep an eye on Drake. If he directly contacts The Hand, we can figure out what they are up to."
"You three can apply as volunteers, and I will keep an eye on Drake," Eddie said.
"Are you sure you can do it?" Peter asked Eddie. "Soone told before that surveillance and counter-surveillance are not easy. If you have not received professional training, you might be discovered while tracking."
Matt also said, "And you are still being chased by The Hand. If you investigate Drake, won't you be walking into a trap?"
Eddie hesitated for a mont. He didn't know where his confidence ca from when he said those words. Then, he heard a voice in his head, "Tell them you can do it."
Eddie jumped up from the sofa in shock. He looked around suspiciously and said, "What voice? Who are you?!"
"I am Venom. Don't ask any more questions. Your brain cannot understand the rest. Just tell them you can do it," the voice said.
Eddie was stunned in place. He was wondering if he was really going crazy, but he still said involuntarily, "Believe , I can do it."
Then the other three saw his facial muscles twitch a bit, as if he had changed in an instant, becoming dark and cold, which was sowhat frightening. He spoke in a low voice, "Because I am Eddie Brock."
