Evening, sunset, afterglow,
Sprinkled on the street guarded by tall buildings on both sides.
The asphalt road in the street is full of traffic coming and going, or is blocked by vehicles.
The sidewalks on both sides of the street were densely packed with migrant workers after get off work and students after school, with hurried looks and fast steps.
This is the most everyday street scene in New York.
Suddenly, a black figure emerged from the corridor and fell to the ground, causing panic among passers-by.
The black figure seemed to be wrapped in a tights, covered with some white vertical stripes.
The eyes are two triangular eyes of a fly. The upper limbs of the body are thick and thick, while the waist and lower limbs are much thinner. The overall shape is a thin inverted triangle.
At the same time, the arms are as thick and long as ape green, with sharp claws extending from the five fingers, and there are barbs on the forearms, shoulders, and head.
The black figure quickly climbed up, without looking at the others, leaped high into the air, jumped to the floor, clasped the wall with its thick claws like a werewolf, then kicked off its legs and jumped to the other wall again.
He moved quickly on the street in this way, and his movements were even a little hasty and awkward, as if he was running away.
And from behind, another figure followed closely behind, with huge black wings fanning behind it, like an angel, causing the pedestrians on the ground to exclaim again.
Of course, although people were surprised by the sudden appearance of two superhumans or inhuman monsters, and they avoided emergency situations very skillfully, they did not panic too much.
After all, this is daily life in New York.
And the figure flying in mid-air with black wings is naturally Peter wearing a massacre vest.
He looked at the symbiote jumping and escaping between buildings from a distance, and his figure gradually became smaller.
Not long after capturing Green Whip, he quickly captured traces of another symbiote.
Even the identity of this symbiote is somewhat special.
…
Swallowing ran away hastily, and when he looked back, he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Carnage didn't catch up immediately.
"Why are you so afraid of him?" The owner of this body, the current host who swallowed it, spoke.
"I'm not afraid of him," Devour retorted.
"No, you're scared. I know it all too well. I've been there before."
"..."
"I don't!"
"You obviously..."
"If you keep talking, I'll eat you!"
"……Alright alright."
Seeing that the host had softened, Swallow was silent for a moment and then said:
"Rather than being afraid, I feel threatened on a life-level. I feel that if I don't run, I will die, and so will you."
"Didn't you say before that although you can't beat the opponent, they can't do anything to you in a short time?" The host asked again.
Swallowing was a little irritated by the opponent's direct hit and the question of not saving face. Who knows what went wrong with him and chose such a weak guy as his host?
"Hell, how do I know? He didn't have those wings before. It's like he has changed."
He seemed to be safe for the time being, and finally found a deserted alleyway to land.
Then, the black fluid squirmed, shrank, and quickly returned to the host's body, revealing the host's appearance.
It’s actually Peter and Gwen’s former high school classmate, Gordon!
Unlike Jessica, who got the Ice Blue Parasitism naturally by coincidence,
The reason why Gordon was able to get the option of swallowing started a long time ago.
In high school, Gordon was tortured by bullies in his class because of his thin body and cowardly character.
He even refused help from Gwen and Peter.
But in the subsequent incident of the lizard man attacking the campus, he rarely broke through himself and stepped forward to attract the lizard man's attention and help Gwen.
Although only a few people involved knew about this incident, it undoubtedly changed Gordon's mentality slightly and changed the rest of his life...well, his life still didn't change much.
He is still the skinny nerd Gordon, timid, weak, and unable to resist.
How can it be so easy to expect that one choice and breakthrough will completely change your life?
But to say that there has been no change at all is not entirely true.
The easiest way to change the world is to change yourself first. At least in this step, he did it a little bit.
In the past, he would only be incompetent and resentful of the world.
Why is it so unfair, why is he so weak.
But now he gradually accepts it all, becomes calm, and gradually discovers more colors in the world.
He has the best role model, Peter Parker!
The other person was once the same as him, but then he took the lead in changing and moving ahead. Gordon felt that Peter was his goal.
Unfortunately, he heard that Peter disappeared during the subsequent alien invasion, which made him sad for a long time.
Then, after graduating from high school, he was admitted to a pretty good university.
Like many people, he had a crush on a girl for the first time, but he didn't dare to talk about it.
He is still the humble Gordon.
In the future, he should be like most ordinary people, graduate, work, start a family and start a business, and then grow old.
Until just now, he saw a guy surrounded by a corner and threatening him on the roadside.
The guy was as thin as he was, making Gordon seem to see his past self.
Somehow, maybe he was overestimating his capabilities, or even hesitant, but he still stood up and stopped the violence.
Then, the target of violence becomes him.
His rich past experience told him that at this time he could only give in, otherwise he would only be beaten worse.
Just when he was about to accept his fate and be beaten, a voice suddenly sounded in his ears,
"Do you want to gain power?"
This sound was naturally the swallow that had just traveled through time.
Compared with Ice Blue, Swallow's output and control capabilities are somewhat inferior, but in frontal combat, he can also defeat Ice Blue.
Unlike Binglan, he has his own preferences when choosing a host. In fact, most mature symbionts have certain requirements for their hosts.
This is just like going on a blind date or falling in love. Your significant other must always match your xp and you must get along with them.
One of the most important xp points when choosing a host is the courage and kindness of the other party.
At least under the circumstances at that time, Gordon was the most suitable candidate. It can be said that it was a perfect match.
But to his surprise, Gordon rejected him without even thinking about it.
"No."
Then, of course, Gordon was beaten up and robbed of cash.
The reason for Gordon's refusal is also very simple.
This kind of voice comes out of nowhere. What if it is an online fraud?
You know, this is not the time when superhumans just emerged. Aliens have invaded again, and the people have more or less popularized relevant knowledge.
At least, according to the plot in the movie, this kind of thing is usually not a good thing. It may even be that some demon is targeting him.
This couldn't help but make Gordon's heart skip a beat and send chills down his spine.
If it were him in the past, he might have responded to this kind of unexplained temptation out of resentment.
But having seen a lizard man, he was wary enough. Who could tell for sure about such an unknown thing? He didn't want to end up like that.
And Gordon, who has gradually accepted his own ordinaryness, is calm and sensible enough to refuse this temptation.
It made me laugh when I learned that Gordon had the idea of swallowing the symbiote. He is a positive energy symbiote that guards order. Do you think he is a chaotic madman like Venom? ?
Gordon even wanted to find a priest to exorcise the devil, which really made Devour a little unbearable.
But at the same time, Swallowing began to appreciate Gordon more and more.
There is no other way, who told him to just do this?
As the saying goes, a good girl is afraid of being harassed by a man.
There is also a saying that when a woman pursues a man, there is a veil between them.
After swallowing his earnest words and reassuring himself that he was a good symbiote, Gordon finally wavered.
And at this time, Peter wearing a massacre vest also came to the two of them,
In a critical situation, Gordon can only merge with Devour, and Devour guarantees that they will be able to deal with each other after merging.
And then...and then nothing more.
Swallowing was beaten and slaughtered by two Dabitou, and he was immediately stunned.
He didn't know when the gap between Massacre and him was so big. After regaining consciousness, he turned around and ran away.
The scene just now occurred.
After taking it into the body, he did not waste any time in swallowing it and asked directly:
"Where are the superheroes in your world? We need their help and we must contact them."
Speaking of superheroes, Gordon immediately thought of Spider-Woman. This was the first superhero he came into contact with, but she has disappeared for more than half a year.
This made Gordon hesitate for a while.
Just then,
"Gordon?"
"who?"
Gordon looked up towards the source of the sound.
He saw Spider Woman climbing on the wall, looking at him in surprise.
