Venom might not harbor any malice toward Earth, but he could still unintentionally produce more Symbiotes. And there was no guarantee those offspring would be harmless.
For safety's sake, it would be best to get rid of him.
The Venom frog seed to sense Gwen's hostility and croaked anxiously.
"Big brother, big sister, I'm on your side! I'm basically an Earthling! I can love Earth and humanity too!"
"Please give a chance. Let live, okay?"
Peter hesitated, wanting to speak, but after seeing Gwen's sharp gaze, he quickly shut his mouth.
Although she was beautiful, she was fierce…
Luke thought for a mont, then looked at Peter and asked, "Peter, I'm going to put Venom under your care for now. Is that okay?"
"?"
Peter instinctively looked at Venom. He was about to shake his head and refuse, but when he saw Venom's hopeful frog eyes, he sohow nodded instead. "N-No problem. Leave it to !"
"Very good, young man. I have high hopes for you."
Luke patted Peter on the shoulder, his tone full of approval.
Although Venom showed up as a yellow marker, his nature was still evil. To be safe, it was better to let the overly compassionate Peter temper him a little.
If Venom beca slightly kinder and Peter a bit tougher, that would be ideal.
Peter scratched his head awkwardly, then suddenly realized sothing.
Wait a second, Luke and I are clearly the sa age!
He's just a little taller, a little more handso, a little stronger, a little more built… Stop, stop!
"Peter, Venom, get along well. Oh, and Peter, stop trying to throw dust in people's eyes. Be a man and punch them."
Luke's reminder left Peter completely confused.
"Alright, job done. Ti to head ho and find your mothers!"
Luke had Bumblebee transform back into vehicle mode.
While the others were distracted by Bumblebee's transformation, Luke quietly dispatched a large group of Shadow Legion mbers, instructing them to spread out and continue gathering information about the Symbiotes.
Although Venom appeared as a yellow marker, he wasn't a green one.
At best, only seventy percent of what he said could be trusted.
It was better to prepare for both possibilities.
"Boss, I think I should look cooler."
Bumblebee hinted repeatedly. "Don't you think I'm not manly enough right now?"
"You're a male Autobot, not a man."
Bumblebee retorted, "How can you assu my identity like that? I'm a man too. I'm an Earthling! I'm a top G!"
"Ayo!" Luke's eyes turned sharp. "What exactly have you been learning while sitting in the garage all day?"
Bumblebee's heart skipped a beat. He laughed awkwardly and quickly changed the subject. "Ehm.. Boss, I just want to go back to how I looked earlier. That way I'll be cooler and more handso, which better reflects your excellent taste, Boss."
Luke said nothing, placing his hand on the steering wheel. Flas spread across the car, transforming it once again into the Hellfire-enhanced Bumblebee.
The domineering, ferocious appearance made the Venom frog croak repeatedly. It quickly jumped into Peter Parker's arms. "Protect , and I'll protect you later!"
Peter quickly wrapped Venom in his hands and clothing.
After Gwen got into the car,
Luke snapped his fingers and used arcane teleportation to return to New York.
Once Peter got out of the car and left,
Luke turned to Gwen in the passenger seat and asked, "What are you planning to do next? Go back to the Spider-Alliance?"
Gwen hesitated. She had co here to stop the Symbiote crisis.
Although that crisis had been resolved, there were still many other problems.
"Why not stay? This world might need you more."
Luke extended an invitation. Since he had finally found soone worth cultivating, it was naturally best to keep her here.
It definitely wasn't because he found Gwen beautiful. Absolutely not.
Gwen only hesitated for a mont before nodding. She extended her hand with a smile. "Alright. Then here's to a… pleasant cooperation."
Luke shook her hand. It was soft.
At that mont, he said aningfully, "Actually… your world might still have a chance to be saved."
Gwen's eyes lit up at first, then dimd again. She forced a smile and said, "It's fine. We can talk about it later if there's a chance."
Luke didn't explain further.
This matter involved an existence that couldn't be bypassed—Eternity.
Only by defeating Eternity, the embodint of ti itself, would there be a chance to reverse ti and save Gwen's world.
That wasn't sothing that could be achieved anyti soon, but in the future, it wasn't impossible.
Gwen awkwardly changed the subject. "Alright, let's not dwell on that. Um… do you have a spare room? If you don't mind…"
"Of course, no problem."
Luke nodded. "My place is big. You can stay as long as you like."
...
At the sa ti,
At Vanguard Science headquarters,
Killian's face darkened as he watched the news report about the destruction of the Life Foundation's Malaysian branch by what was described as divine judgnt.
"Have you figured it out? What exactly caused this?"
Marco had died too quickly, only managing to send back a brief report before all contact was lost.
Killian didn't care about Marco's death, nor did he care about the fate of his potential partner, Drake.
What he cared about was whether Marco had exposed the Extremis Soldier project before dying.
If those self-righteous fools found out what he was doing, it would severely disrupt his plans.
A bald man with a ferocious expression lowered his head and spoke in a low voice.
"The flas at the scene left no clues, but witnesses reported seeing a demonic chariot engulfed in fire nearby."
Killian's lips twitched. "That's it? Any news from our financial backers?"
"They said this incident may be related to Mr. Rowling."
"That Luke Rowling…?"
Killian's expression darkened slightly as he sneered. "A god, is he? If he dares to interfere with my plans, I'll kill him—even if he is a god!"
anwhile, elsewhere,
in Malaysia,
Mark, the God of Death, forrly of the Umbrella Corporation and now recruited by S.H.I.E.L.D., arrived at the ruins of the Life Foundation with a large team of Hydra agents.
An assistant agent wearing glasses said, "Looks like we were unlucky. We arrived too late."
Mark glanced around, then shook his head. "Unlucky for , maybe. But for you, this might actually be a good thing."
The assistant agent looked confused, until he rembered Mark's past mission records.
Cold sweat instantly broke out across his forehead.
Maybe… it really was a good thing.
