"Don't worry, as soon as I get out, I'll expose Drake's despicable actions and make sure he rots in prison for life!"
Eddie thumped his chest, guaranteeing it.
Not to mention he already had a grudge against Carlton Drake, Drake's actions alone were enough to warrant his immediate demise.
A life sentence was being merciful to Drake.
"I just don't want to see anyone else die for such a bizarre reason!"
Dora's expression was somber.
Eddie's eyes flickered, he understood Dora's hidden meaning.
Dora could convince herself that the deaths of the previous volunteers were sacrifices for medical advancement.
However, when Carlton Drake turned his attention to aliens and began sacrificing lives for reasons that no one else could understand, people like Dora Skes, who were indecisive by nature, could no longer make money with a clear conscience.
It was doing nothing for society; it was purely a slaughter of lives.
Coincidentally, Eddie appeared before her at this moment, giving her the courage to change the situation.
"Don't worry, I won't let Drake go."
Eddie assured her again.
Dora opened the door to the glass room.
But neither of them expected that at this moment, a security guard would walk in.
Seeing Eddie, who had regained his freedom, the security personnel gripped their firearms tightly and shouted, "Don't move, or I'll shoot! You better behave yourself!"
Eddie just wanted to curse.
Damn it, why now? Why didn't you come earlier or later, but just when I was about to leave? Is it my destiny to die today?
His intense unwillingness made Eddie raise his hands, feigning surrender, while slowly approaching the security personnel.
Click! Seeing this, the security personnel didn't hesitate and pulled the trigger.
Eddie was horrified.
Sensing something was wrong, he dodged in advance.
Whoosh! The bullet grazed past Eddie's ear, and the hot air left a bloody scratch on his cheek.
Crack!
The sound of shattering glass rang out.
Dora and the security personnel turned to look, their faces changing drastically.
The latter even forgot to keep firing, a look of indescribable terror on their faces.
"Run!"
Dora screamed with all her might, staring in horror at Eddie's back.
At this moment, the security personnel abandoned Eddie and took the lead, sprinting away as fast as they could. It looked like they were going to get reinforcements.
"What the hell?"
Eddie was dumbfounded.
He had just recovered from the shock of surviving, and then he realized something.
His body trembled, and a chill ran down his spine.
He slowly turned his head and saw a pool of black, viscous liquid that had reached his heels and was gradually crawling up his back.
He vaguely sensed that this black goo seemed to be sinking into his body, becoming completely a part of him.
"Gulp!"
He suddenly understood, both shocked and terrified.
A Symbiote!
Some things, even if you see them for the first time, you can immediately tell what they are.
New York, Osborn Tower.
Anton saw the old man again.
"Deal done?"
Jonah Jameson opened with a smile: "Osborn Corporation has cooperated with The Daily Bugle many times, but this time, it's probably the largest amount involved. Anton, you haven't disappointed me."
"Old man, is this how you used to make money?"
Anton's expression was strange.
"Seeking benefits for yourself within a reasonable range, anyone with a little bit of brains would do it." Jameson didn't care, "Every penny I earn doesn't go against my conscience, and it's legal income after paying taxes. You don't think I can have a current net worth of billions just by blackmailing with The Daily Bugle, do you?"
Anton admired, "That's not it, but I really underestimated your connections."
"You'll discover more secrets about me later."
Jonah Jameson smiled.
In the Life Foundation incident, Anton had delivered a satisfactory response.
This made him very pleased, and he already had the idea of seriously cultivating Anton.
Ring, ring, ring! Suddenly, Anton's phone rang.
"Boss, Life Foundation just released a statement saying they'll immediately hold a press conference to directly address the two major issues of 'vagrants' and 'illegal experiments'..."
Phil's voice came from the other end, extremely excited: "We won!"
"Wait a moment, let's see what Drake says."
Anton replied, "Even though we're in a winning position, we still need to prevent the enemy from going all out."
"Understood."
Phil nodded.
During this time, Anton and Jameson were ushered into a car by a driver.
The former pulled out his phone and opened the live broadcast interface of The Daily Bugle.
The phone screen showed the entrance of the Life Foundation's experimental base, located near the Golden Gate Bridge.
At this moment, although the gate was tightly closed, the area outside was packed with people.
The crowd included not only the protesters who had been blocking the entrance earlier, but also journalists from various news outlets who were continuously arriving, all wanting to be the first to report on this major event that had sparked widespread public discussion.
"Don't worry, the Life Foundation has admitted defeat."
Jonah Jameson glanced over, looking very confident.
"Why do you say that?"
Anton was curious.
"The San Francisco City Government has given Carlton Drake an ultimatum, demanding he resolve the scandal as quickly as possible." Jameson sneered, "Those high-and-mighty politicians don't want this scandal to keep brewing."
"You know all this?" Anton was surprised.
"That's the secret. Otherwise, why do you think Norman Osborn would let The Daily Bugle make a profit?"
Jameson said, "I told you, Anton, I have a lot of secrets."
"Alright."
Anton had a headache. "I just hope Eddie's okay."
"There are sacrifices in everything."
Jonah Jameson's tone was profound, tinged with coldness. "Anton, you need to learn to accept reality."
Anton asked, "And you? Have you learned?"
Jameson said, "Of course."
Anton asked again, "Then why did you retire?"
"That's life."
Jonah Jameson replied, "You'll understand someday."
While the two were talking, the Life Foundation's press conference in San Francisco was making progress.
The doors slowly opened.
Flanked by several burly bodyguards, a slender man, seemingly in his early thirties, appeared before everyone.
Carlton Drake.
A self-made billionaire.
"Mr. Drake, how will you respond to the criticism from netizens?"
"There are rumors that you have already received a warning from the San Francisco Police Department. Is this true?"
"Will you go to jail?"
"Drake, go to hell!!"
Countless people spoke at once, like hundreds of ducks quacking in unison, which was incredibly annoying.
"Quiet down."
Carlton Drake raised his hand, walked to the podium, and solemnly said into the small microphone, "Everyone, the Life Foundation has always adhered to the philosophy of solving all human diseases. Currently, we have developed many new drugs, solving many terminal illnesses, including pancreatic cancer, and bringing life to patients with terminal illnesses around the world. Although we are now facing many false accusations, I still want to tell everyone that I, Carlton Drake, have a clear conscience…"
