Chapter 314: Deadly Guardian
It's 1 a.m. in downtown New York.
Most of the buildings are lights out, only 24-hour shops are still a little popular, the streets glow with neon lights and a few taxis marked as empty as they weave through the main road.
A young man with jeans under his body and a hooded trench coat on his top, with his hands in his trouser pockets, bent slightly, and his face buried in the shadow of his hat with his head down, like a homeless man wandering by the deserted street.
Eddie. His current situation is not much different from Thor, the god of thunder in Mexico.
As a high-achieving student who has just graduated from the University of California, he has only been reporting on New York News for two days, and he fantasized about getting a promotion and a salary increase, marrying Bai Fumei to the peak of his life, but he ...... overnight
Not only did the temporarily rented room blow up for himself, but he also became a murder suspect and was arrested by the New York police, and the most important thing is that the body still relies on a symbiote life that doesn't matter whether you live or die.
"Hey, it's really bad luck today!" Eddie scolded in a chagrined whisper.
His mind suddenly buzzed, and then, like a voice in his heart, let out a hoarse retort: "Hey, how do you speak?" Be my host, and this is the day you will be reborn. ”
"Huh." Eddie laughed far-fetched.
Toxin said dissatisfiedly, "Cheer up." Isn't there a lot of examples of ordinary people in New York becoming supermen, such as Captain America, a symbol of peace, or something like that......"
"What do you think...... With your and my transformation shapes, are you more like a decent hero or a villain monster? Eddie couldn't complain.
"That being said. But what you're going to do next is to save New York and world peace! ”
Toxin coughed lightly and explained earnestly: "In the battle just now, I devoured part of the body of the alien symbiote and obtained its memory fragments. They came to Earth this time to investigate this place in advance and develop it into an alien colony, and if one of them returned to the original planet, they would bring thousands of symbiotes to attack Earth. ”
"Wasn't that monster dead just now?" Eddie asked, surprised.
Toxin simply said, "Yes." But there were four of them, and now one is dead, and three are left. ”
"If you want to deal with that powerful monster, you might as well let me kill myself." Eddie wailed in pain, stopped in the aisle and scratched his hair irritably, startled a stray vicious dog on the side of the road to glare at him, disgusting saliva flowing from his mouth and teeth, and the beast's eyes flashed green and cold at night.
"Get out! Don't mess with me! ”
Eddie glared back angrily and violently, and the face hidden under the hood was slightly distorted into a black monster face under the dim neon light of the demonic yeature -
The long, narrow, protruding white eyes surged with ferocity and murderous intent, a bloody mouth large enough to bite off a human head, and a mouthful of vicious fangs with many sharp and miscellaneous inside.
"Woo woo...... "The vicious dog clipped its tail for a second, and fled in terror with unstable limbs, and soon ran away at the intersection.
"Ugh."
Eddie's face returned to its original appearance, sighed helplessly, and continued to walk aimlessly.
Toxin rare comfort said: "Don't worry. They have very significant weaknesses, namely fire and ultrasound, and as long as we make good use of this, it is not impossible to hunt down the three-headed symbiote. ”
As a reporter, Eddie keenly caught the loopholes in his thinking, and the fox asked: "Wait." Aren't you of their own kind? Why do you want to help the planet in reverse? That's too fake, isn't it? ”
Toxin fell silent.
After a while, Toxin said coldly, "Tell me the truth." It has nothing to do with me what happens to the earth, I just want to find the meaning of my existence. Although we are of the same race as those symbiotes, we are born on different planets. ”
"So you're not in the same group? Are you looking for your parents now? Eddie said, feeling a little strange even to himself.
An alien version of a little tadpole looking for its mother?
The question was like touching the sore spot of a toxin, and it was tired of saying, "I don't know, don't ask me, if you ask me again, I'll bite off your head!" ”
Eddie shrugged and said, "You can't bite it." Besides, I'm your host now, we share the same life, and you won't survive if I die. ”
Toxin was speechless.
It didn't expect that not only was it adaptable, but Eddie's human adaptability should not be underestimated.
"You ......"
Eddie was about to say something, when a black tentacle suddenly stretched out from behind him, bouncing and stretching into the alley next to him, pulling his entire body to quickly hide in it.
"What's wrong?"
Eddie was surprised, and after a few seconds, he saw a police car slowly driving down the highway without a bell, as if patrolling and searching for something.
"Police car...... I'm still wanted by the police all over the city? Eddie was terrified and panicked and asked Toxin, "What are we going to do?" Before we could find the symbiote and kill us, the New York police killed us first. ”
"What are you afraid of, I'm here." Toxin snorted disdainfully, this host's physical fitness is okay, but his mentality is too unstable, and he still needs to be trained well.
"Are you still going to kill people?"
Eddie didn't know how many times, sighed again, turned around and was about to walk out of the alley, but as the black shadow flickered in front of him, three men in black inexplicably appeared at the mouth of the alley.
"Be careful, they're not ordinary people." The voice of toxin rang in Eddie's head.
Eddie took a step back, warily at the three people blocking him.
They were two men and one woman, the man was burly and tall, and the woman was slender, both wearing a full set of black combat leather suits and wearing a demon mask with a sinister smile.
Their equipment was also very strange, some carried a human-tall Barrett sniper rifle, some had a cold weapon sword tied to their waists, and some had metal twin guns with huge barrels tied to their legs.
"Team F, found the target, next to the alley at 654 Hatta Street." As the leader of the three, a man said sharply to the high-tech communication watch.
One of the female men in black looked at Eddie and said in a coquettish voice: "Let me introduce myself first, we are the cardins of the Carl family, and I am Red Eleven." ”
"Red Ten." "Red Nine."
The other two disciples spoke separately.
"Little brother, I advise you not to do useless struggles and resist." Red Eleven continued.
Eddie didn't answer, as if he was saying to himself, "What should I do?" ”
"What else can I do? Dry! ”
As if in response to Toxin's violent answer, Eddie roared slightly, and the rapidly changing expansion of his body emerged as a dark stratum corneum, armed explosive muscles and terrifying shells enveloping the original human body.
"Up!"
Faced with this situation, the three cardins glanced at each other, and without saying much, they opened the joint siege, and the reaction actions made were quick and efficient.
A fierce battle unfolds in the dead of night on the streets of downtown New York.
