The immediate crisis was temporarily lifted, but the massacre monsters were still trying to break through the laboratory's defenses outside, leaving sharp white marks on the iron door with their claws and teeth.
Listening to the banging sound coming from outside the door, the heartbeats of Parker employees hiding in the laboratory involuntarily accelerated, and every impact shocked their spirits.
No one knows how long the defense system can last, not to mention that there is not enough food in the laboratory, but there is a lot of pure water.
Obviously hiding here is not a long-term solution.
After careful consideration, Connors said: "Since those monsters parasitized by the symbiote are coming towards me, maybe I should lure them away."
Dr. Otto looked at him in surprise. This didn't sound like something the Connors he knew would do, but Connors' eyes were extremely firm.
"Why?"
"For Parker Industries."
Otto couldn't understand the strange answer. He was very confused as to what Professor Connors was thinking.
Although he is also an employee of Parker Industries, Otto has no intention of putting himself in danger for Parker Industries. It is not worth it to him.
It's just a technology company, so it won't cost him his life.
Professor Connors seemed to see through what Otto was thinking, and then added: "Actually, it's not just for Parker Industries, there is a promise."
He reached into his pocket and found a piece of candy that Peter Parker had given him on Halloween and that he had always kept on him.
"I promised Peter that I would never let others down again. Parker Industries means much more to me than a company, but an opportunity to regain recognition." Connors looked directly at Otto seriously and said. : "I've been here since the beginning of Parker Industries, and this is my first job as a human."
"I can't bear to have this place damaged, especially the interns I usually teach. Although they are muddle-headed, their minds are a little confused, and they are not experienced in dealing with people, I still feel the joy of teaching and educating people in them."
"If they become the same monster I once was, a lot of people will be disappointed in me, including Peter."
Professor Connors actually couldn't explain his feelings, but on Halloween night, he did think about many things, and this candy became inexplicably important.
The atmosphere gradually became silent, and Otto, perhaps sensing Connors' determination, cursed: "Damn Connors, you must be the employee of the week."
After hesitating for a long time, Otto made up his mind and said, "I will go out with you. You are not Professor Lizard now, but at least I still have mechanical tentacles to protect you."
"Someone needs to be guarding this place, and the task of protecting Parker Industries will be left to you. It's enough to lend me all the weird weapons you made."
Even though Dr. Otto tried his best, Connors flatly refused. After all, someone should be guarding this place.
In desperation, Dr. Otto had no choice but to agree to Connors' request. At this time, he was no longer stingy with his inventions, and gave Connors everything that might be useful.
If the mechanical tentacles were not already closely connected to Otto's neurons, he would be willing to lend him this most precious invention.
Gradually, the heavily armed Professor Connors was ready to step out of the laboratory door and fight his way out.
He stood resolutely in front of the door alone.
Otto patted Connors on the shoulder: "I'll let you shine this time, but next time I will definitely let Peter Parker know that Otto is the most valuable employee of Parker Industries."
"Sure, wish me luck."
"Good luck."
...
In the safe house, the dim space was dyed with a dim blue light, and Eddie Brock was also fully armed.
For ease of movement, he took off his old style sweatshirt and put on a simple leather jacket.
Some incendiary bombs and ammunition for various types of equipment were hung on his shoulders, while he held the recovered weapons and firearms in his hands.
Peter doesn't need these. He is not used to using guns, and using guns is not in line with Spider-Man's style.
However, he had to control not to let the ink swallow up too many doppelgangers of Carnage, and to avoid actually collecting enough backup samples to passively awaken the evil god Gnar.
Before they could rest for too long, the massacre monsters came to their door.
Peter's spider-sense was buzzing, and he calmly reminded Eddie, "They're coming."
Then there was a loud bang, and the door of the safe house was knocked open. The defense level here was not even as good as Parker Industries' laboratory. After all, Eddie Brock didn't have that much money.
If Peter was temporarily depressed, then Eddie's life was not smooth.
This also resulted in him sometimes having to wander around and living in poverty.
"Let's go into the underground warehouse. There is a secret passage there." Eddie shouted loudly.
The two of them moved forward under the pressure of the massacre. The roars and teeth grinding of the massacred doppelganger army echoed outside the warehouse, but all Eddie Brock could hear was the dead silence in his mind.
Eddie no longer has Venom's symbiote suit, reminding him that the only ones he can use are his own wits and weapons.
Outnumbered and defenseless, even Eddie couldn't deal with so many enemies when he was with Venom, and now all he could do was drop an incendiary bomb and let the flames spread inside his warehouse.
The usually vast underground warehouse now seemed crowded and cramped because of so many killing monsters, and their appearance made Eddie extremely disgusted.
It's not so much that he hates killing monsters, but that he hates all symbiotes because of the venom.
But now, when he couldn't knock anyone away even with a punch, he began to pray that he could survive.
Damn... I should have listened to Venom's advice... No matter what happens now, if I lose, everything will be over.
While Eddie was still thinking a lot, Peter Parker was already killing people crazy. Every time the ink swallowed up a part of the massacre doppelganger, it would convey a satisfied emotion to Peter.
But one or two is okay, now this number will really overwhelm the ink.
"Maybe I shouldn't eat too much chocolate," the ink voice said in Peter's head.
"You just know, I told you that you eat too much. Every time I go to the supermarket, I empty their shelves." Peter complained.
Even in warehouses, combustion is unsustainable because there is not much air left.
Even symbionts need to breathe air, which causes the carbon dioxide concentration in this space to increase while the oxygen content decreases.
Peter Parker doesn't notice this because his suit has its own independent rebreathing system.
But Eddie was suffocating, which reminded him of the feeling of being enveloped in venom.
