After handing the Symbiote to Stark, Gluttony's tentacles slowly withdrew from the Symbiote.
The freed Symbiote quickly merged into Stark's body.
Due to the fear Gluttony had instilled in it, the Symbiote remained exceptionally docile.
It didn't do anything bad; instead, after entering Stark's body, it quickly began repairing him.
Not long after, Stark saw a tiny metal fragment being expelled from his body.
"Looks pretty good. Soon I'll be able to say goodbye to that damn chlorophyll juice."
As time passed, the metal fragments that even Dr.s couldn't deal with were expelled one by one from Stark's body by the Symbiote.
Even the Arc Reactor in Stark's chest was about to be pushed out by the Symbiote.
"Oh! No, no, no, don't touch that for now."
Watching the Arc Reactor slowly being pushed out, Stark quickly ordered the Symbiote to stop its actions.
Under Stark's command, the Symbiote stopped repairing Stark and remained motionless on his body.
Stark looked down at the Arc Reactor in his chest. If he removed this thing, he could become a truly healthy person.
Thinking about regaining his health, Stark smiled.
He found a screwdriver from the workbench. He was going to remove this thing from his body.
Facing the mirror, Stark opened the metal slot where the Arc Reactor was installed. Inside was an electromagnet.
This used to be what sustained his life, but now that the metal fragments in his chest had been expelled, this electromagnet had lost its value.
He reached his hand in, and the electromagnet, along with a large amount of electrolyte, was pulled out of the metal slot by Stark.
"Ugh, I didn't think this thing would be so disgusting. I distinctly remember specifically designing this area."
Looking at the electromagnet covered in mucus in his hand, Stark threw it onto the workbench with a look of disgust.
Although he was complaining, a faint smile still appeared on Stark's face.
After unscrewing the last few screws, the metal slot was easily removed by Stark.
However, as soon as the metal slot was removed, a gush of fresh blood poured from Stark's chest.
His face suddenly turned pale, and he said with difficulty, "Don't just stand there, hurry and repair it."
Upon receiving Stark's command, the Symbiote once again enveloped Stark's body, and in an instant, the bloody hole in his chest was repaired.
"Stark, how do you feel?"
Andy asked curiously, looking at Stark who was standing still.
"Haha, I feel great! I've never felt this good before."
Without the threat to his life, Stark was extremely excited, and even his voice became high-pitched.
He kept doing physical activities, like he did the first time he built the Mark 2.
After playing around in the lab for a while, Stark dismissed the Symbiote and returned to his original appearance.
"This guy gets along well with me. Maybe I can keep it."
The Symbiote's abilities were quite good, and it could be considered a supplement to his survival capabilities.
As he was speaking, Norman walked into the lab.
"How you deal with the Symbiote is your business, but here are its test results."
He had conducted in-depth tests on the Symbiote on Stark's body, and the results surprised him.
The Symbiote on Stark was newly born, which meant Derek was carrying a Symbiote embryo.
Looking at the monitoring data Norman handed him, Stark exclaimed in surprise, "This guy was born a few hours ago? How is that possible!"
At the Life Foundation, they had all witnessed the battle between Derek and Dr. Dora.
Derek, relying on the Symbiote's transformed claws, had forced Dr. Dora to retreat repeatedly.
How could such formidable combat ability be wielded by a newborn infant?
Hearing Stark's exclamation, Andy snatched the test data from his hand.
The data indeed showed what Stark had said. Andy was surprised and also confused.
Why had Gluttony not reacted at all when they were near Derek?
"I can understand that it was just born, but why didn't Gluttony sense any Symbiote on Derek?"
This left Norman a bit baffled, and he wasn't very clear about Andy's question either.
Because even a Symbiote embryo should not be significantly different from a normal Symbiote; it shouldn't be undetectable by Gluttony.
After thinking for a long time, Norman couldn't provide an answer.
Seeing that Norman, who knew the most about Symbiotes, didn't know the reason, Andy gave up on pressing the matter. They would research this later when they had time.
After all, Gluttony was only unable to sense the embryo; this problem wasn't particularly serious.
"Speaking of which, who is that Dr. Dora?
And doesn't the Life Foundation have another Symbiote? Should we capture it as well?"
They already knew about the existence of six Symbiotes, and they had already captured two.
Now they were unsure about two Symbiotes, and the remaining two were the ones at the Life Foundation.
Norman tapped a few times on the tablet in his hand, bringing up Dr. Dora's information.
"The only person I found connected to the Life Foundation was Dr. Dora.
She was a senior researcher at the Life Foundation, but she was fired by the Life Foundation today."
Dr. Dora was the most likely candidate, especially since an incident occurred at the Life Foundation last night.
Personnel changes happened today, with a senior researcher being inexplicably fired. This clearly indicated a huge problem.
Moreover, after Dr. Dora rushed out of the lab, her objective was very clear: she wanted to kill Derek.
Aside from her being used as an experimental subject by Derek, he couldn't think of anything that would cause such immense hatred in a female warrior bonded with a Symbiote.
Looking at Dr. Dora's identity information on the tablet, Stark whistled, saying somewhat flippantly,
"Ha, she's not bad-looking."
Andy and Norman were already used to Stark's behavior.
They could only shake their heads helplessly, no longer paying attention to this guy.
Night was deep.
In an apartment building, Eddie was sitting on his bed, looking troubled.
Ever since he came back, he felt that something was wrong with him.
He had even undergone a check-up, but the sound of the MRI machine gave him a splitting headache.
And he kept hearing a strange voice from time to time; all of this made him feel terrible.
Suddenly, music blared from the apartment across the hall. The intense melody made his head ache.
Unable to bear it any longer, Eddie ran out and pounded on the opposite door.
"Is something wrong?"
The door was opened by a very rock-and-roll-style man, who asked with a frown.
"Could you please turn your music down? I'm sick and it's really bothering me."
Eddie leaned on the doorframe, glaring at the rock man.
"Hmph! What's it to you?"
The man replied disdainfully. What did Eddie's illness have to do with him?
But in the next moment, he changed his mind because he saw Eddie's face suddenly change, and it looked like a few fangs appeared in his mouth.
Although the appearance was fleeting, like an illusion, it still left an indelible impression on his mind.
"Uh, okay, that's actually a good suggestion."
Seeing the man's change in attitude, Eddie nodded in thanks.
Returning to his room, Eddie took out roasted chicken pieces from the oven. Just as he was about to eat, he heard a voice.
"Be careful outside the door."
Eddie looked at the door in confusion, and then his door was knocked.
Although puzzled, since someone was knocking, he couldn't ignore it.
He got up and opened the door, but the moment he opened it, he was pushed back.
A group of people burst into his home, aiming tasers at him.
"Hey! Hey! Hey! What's going on? Who are you?"
Facing the people who broke into his room, Eddie asked them.
The leader of the group was a bald man, who looked at Eddie and asked, "Where is the Symbiote?"
The owner of the Life Foundation was dead. They had lost their employer, and no one would pay them their salaries on Derek's behalf.
Now, the only valuable thing left in the Life Foundation was the Symbiote that had been under research.
The bald man had obtained the yellow Symbiote in the lab. Their next step was to hunt down the Symbiote that Eddie had taken.
"What Symbiote? What are you talking about?"
Eddie looked confused by the bald man's question. He didn't know what a Symbiote was.
"He's talking about me."
The voice that had been lingering in Eddie's ear rang out again, and his hand uncontrollably pointed at himself.
Seeing Eddie's confused expression, the bald man snorted coldly.
"Hmph, take him down and bring him."
At the bald man's command, two subordinates' tasers fired electric darts, hitting Eddie.
But Eddie didn't fall to the ground as expected. Instead, a black arm extended, throwing one of the subordinates out the window.
"Uh, I'm sorry, I really wanted to cooperate with you guys."
Eddie looked at the bald man with a bitter expression. What just happened was truly not intentional on his part.
However, his apology did not earn the bald man's understanding. The people in the house surrounded him and attacked him together.
Under the siege of everyone, Eddie was like a master of martial arts.
He fought these people back in different ways, but this was not Eddie's own will.
Because he couldn't control his body at all; he was now like a machine, being manipulated by an unknown entity.
Their fight was discovered by people surrounding the building downstairs, who, armed with firearms, broke into the apartment building where Eddie lived.
Inside the room, Eddie had knocked everyone down, even the bald man was kicked unconscious by him.
Seeing the situation of these people, Eddie knew that if he delayed any longer, the Police would be called, so he prepared to escape.
But just as he ran to the stairs, he was spotted by those rushing up.
Suddenly, gunshots erupted, and countless bullets flew towards Eddie.
Two tentacles emerged from Eddie's body, pulling him sharply, and Eddie successfully dodged the bullet attack.
However, as he dodged, he was also thrown out of the window.
Amidst Eddie's scream, his arm turned black and rapidly extended.
He grabbed onto a family's balcony. With this buffer, Eddie successfully landed safely.
After he landed, Eddie hid in a nearby alley.
His situation just now was absolutely not normal. Now he could confirm that his so-called auditory hallucinations were actually what the thing inside his body was saying.
"You're the parasite inside my body, aren't you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Eddie's body was sucked onto the wall and hung there.
"I am Venom, not a parasite."
Venom's voice sounded somewhat agitated; he seemed to dislike the term 'parasite'.
Eddie, hanging on the wall with no leverage, waved his hand indifferently.
"Whatever, but can you leave my body?"
"Not 'whatever.' I am Venom, and I like your body very much."
As if expressing displeasure at Eddie's behavior, Venom extended two tentacles and pulled Eddie to another wall.
With a dull thud, Eddie was pressed tightly against the wall, unable to move.
"Alright, you win. Can you put me down?"
Now Eddie had no choice with Venom, as this guy could control his body at any time.
After Eddie apologized, Venom let him down from the wall.
Back on the ground, Eddie rotated his shoulders. Being hung on the wall didn't feel very good.
