American comics: Playing Spider-Man at the beginning, wandering around and losing contact

Chapter 125 Venom and Eddie

After Eddie finished speaking, he seemed to realize that his voice was a little loud, and he quickly raised his head and looked around. After making sure that no one was paying attention to him, he lowered his head and buried his figure in the crowd. With a hood on, almost no one could recognize his face.

"Hey...why don't you just let me eat those things? What a waste of time..." Venom kept complaining in Eddie's mind.

Eddie slapped his head until it buzzed, and seemed too lazy to pay attention to the venom.

Right after he merged with the monster, he was quickly found by the Life Foundation. Fortunately, Venom and himself were highly fused, so he was able to save his life and escape today.

This time when he escaped, he also took away several symbiote xenobiotic reagents from the laboratory as evidence. This is Eddie's professional habit as a reporter. Now, he only needs to publish the evidence in his hand to expose all the conspiracy!

"Don't bother me yet..." Eddie warned the venom in his brain fiercely, "Let me find a way out first."

He escaped from the laboratory and sneaked all the way here along the sewer pipe. Now he had no map and no electronic equipment, so he could not contact the outside world and could not even buy a piece of bread. In the laboratory, he could only receive the most basic nutrient solution every day to maintain his vital signs. Now, he was already dry-mouthed after running for dozens of minutes.

"Forget it, let's find a place and get something to eat before we go out."

cuckoo-

Eddie made a noise from his stomach for a while, which bothered him greatly. Venom depended on him for its existence. If he starved to death, Venom, as a symbiote, would not be able to exert its power.

"Eat? Hehehe, good idea. But, Eddie, are you sure you can afford to buy food now?" Venom did not forget to mock Eddie at this time.

Indeed, Eddie had no money in his pocket, not even coins. Even the plain clothes he was wearing were stolen from the laboratory.

"...There will always be a way." Eddie touched his head and said this to comfort himself.

After a while, the hungry Eddie walked along the street filled with the smell of decay and came to a dimly lit bakery. Looking at the cream bread inside through the glass window, Eddie swallowed his saliva.

"Eddie...look, it's chocolate, I like chocolate..." Venom seemed a little impatient.

"Shut up." Eddie scolded the disobedient guy.

At this time, the waitress from the bakery came up with a smile. When she briefly glanced at Eddie's clothes that were stained with sewage, she frowned and her smile gradually disappeared.

"I'm sorry, it's not time to collect the garbage today. Can you beggars please have a little professional ethics?"

The waiter's voice sounded behind Eddie, causing him to quickly stand up from his prone position and touch his pocket awkwardly.

"Um, sorry, miss, I'm really hungry, can you..."

"No, no, leave quickly..."

Listening to the woman's harsh tone, Eddie gradually clenched his fists.

Then gradually loosen your fist.

"All right……"

Eddie turned and left. The waitress took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the window where Eddie was lying, with a look of disgust on her face.

Suddenly, a black shadow flashed past.

Roar!
A black humanoid monster with fangs stood at the door of the bakery, roaring, its bright red tongue spitting out a stream of sticky saliva, and its pale eyes reflected the figure standing there in a daze.

"what!"

The waitress screamed and then fainted.

"Eddie, I told you a long time ago that you should not be soft-hearted when doing things."

The black thread gradually retreated from Eddie's body, and Venom spoke teasingly in Eddie's ear. Eddie looked at his own reflection in the glass and sighed helplessly.

"Well... you are still the best."

Seeing the dazzling array of food in front of him, Eddie no longer had the heart to argue with Venom. Now, he just wanted to eat his fill and then leave this damn place with all his might.

When Eddie walked out of the store with a bag full of chocolates and a piece of bread in his mouth, he looked around. The streets under Neon Town looked very magical. Among the crowded and shoving crowds, depressed vagrants could be seen everywhere. And Eddie looked like those vagrants at the moment.

"Hey, monster, you said you still have half of your body. If you can get the other half back, can you become very powerful?"

Eddie walked down the street with a bag of food in his arms, asking Venom in his head.

Although it may not sound good, the fact is that he can leave the laboratory and fill his stomach because of the venom.

"Of course. Are you doubting my ability? Foolish human." Venom said with a smile.

"So what do you think, now that you're separated, is that half of the body stronger, or are you stronger?" Eddie asked.

"Need I say that? The strength of the symbiote depends on the host's physique and the degree of compatibility with the host. Given the degree of compatibility between us, unless that guy is a superhuman..."

"..."

Eddie wandered around in this maze-like street for a while, but it seemed he couldn't find the so-called exit.

Suddenly, a metal pipe fell from above his head.

boom!
It fell directly in front of Eddie, scaring him badly.

Look up, there is nothing above you.

"That's weird... Could it be that a maintenance worker is doing some repairs?"

Eddie murmured. He had not yet fully recovered his strength. Venom mostly relied on the host's own abilities. Once he ran out of strength, he would be completely finished.

"Eddie, be careful..."

At this time, Venom's tone suddenly became serious and he spoke in a rare serious tone.

Eddie was stunned for a moment, looking at the fallen steel pipe on the ground.

Nothing special.

But soon, his eyes widened.

The steel pipe suddenly floated high up, suspended in the air, and turned, pointing at Eddie's body like a metal spear.

This is……

Before Eddie could react, his chest was wrapped in black silk thread.

Venom realized something was wrong and immediately changed his posture, taking control of Eddie's body.

And at the moment when the venom covered his whole body, the steel pipe in front of him suddenly stabbed out!
Venom tightly grasped the flying steel pipe. However, this seemingly ordinary thing seemed to have a terrible power! It actually pushed Venom's body backwards.

"Venom... Hehe, this little alien creature is nothing more than that."

"It seems that the so-called other half of the host body that the Life Foundation has always emphasized is not that strong."
