Under the bright sunlight, a shadow approached slowly, walking towards themotion.
Hearing the sudden footsteps, everyone, including Eddie, turned to look.
The neer wore a ck hooded cloak, obscuring most of his face, and exuded an air of mystery.
"Friend, this ce is dangerous. Stay back," Thomas warned in a low voice.
But his warning was ignored, and the figure continued to approach.
Instantly, Thomas and the others became alert, their guns subtly aimed at the figure, ready to fire if he came any closer.
While they were on high alert, Venom, sensing something, showed a surprised expression.
"This guy... He''s not captured?"
Venom''s voice reached Eddie, who instinctively asked, "You know him?"
Eddie''s question drew everyone''s attention.
Embarrassed by the stares, Eddie awkwardly said, "I didn''t mean... um, you know what I mean!"
At this moment, Venom spoke again, rifying for Eddie.
"I can sense the other half of my body that I abandoned, it''s inside this person!"
Then, Venom quickly exined the situation to Eddie.
Understanding the exnation, Venom, controlling Eddie''s body, spoke to the approaching figure under the watchful eyes of Drake and Thomas. "What are you doing here? To mock me?"
"Let me see what kind of host you''ve chosen..."
Venom then scrutinized the mysterious figure, but finding nothing special, dismissed it, saying, "He looks ordinary to me."
While Drake and the others were puzzled by the conversation, the mysterious figure stopped in a less affected area by the sonic waves.
Suddenly, ck liquid emerged from the figure''s right arm, forming a small Venom head.
"My foolish other half, you''ll regret abandoning me to distract the enemies!"
"And he''s not ordinary!"
Syd''s Venom spoke in a hoarse voice.
Venom, controlling Eddie, paused and then smiled smugly. "Really? I can''t see anything special about him."
"But my host is the perfect host. There''s no better body than this!"
Influenced by his words, Venom''s voice, filled with pride, showed his satisfaction with Eddie as his host, genuinely believing no one could be more perfect.
He thought the other half was just boasting; how could it have found a bodyparable to Eddie''s in such a short time?
While they conversed, Drake and the others, analyzing the information, were both shocked and delighted.
At the Life Foundation.
Drake hurried to themunicator, his excitement evident as he instructed Thomas.
"Thomas, quickly, capture this symbiote host as well!"
A satisfied smile spread across his face.
Unexpectedly capturing another symbiote host?
As for capturing him, Drake had no doubts.
Before they had the sonic weapons, he might have hesitated, but now he had no concerns. He even thought the approaching symbiote host was foolish.
Did he think having a symbiote made him invincible?
This person was about to learn a hard lesson!
Drake''s smile grew wider, envisioning himself as the perfect lifeform after experimenting on the two captured subjects!
Under the watchful eyes of the Life Foundation, Thomas and his men moved.
Buzz~
In the next second, men carrying sonic devices rushed over.
Eddie grimaced in pain, and Syd was also enveloped by the special sonic waves.
The Venom on his hand showed a pained expression and instinctively retracted into Syd''s right hand.
Seeing this Venom also affected by the sonic waves, Thomas and the observing Drake sighed in relief.
"Raise your hands. We need you toe with us!"
Thomas aimed his ck gun at Syd.
As he felt victory was within grasp, something unexpected happened!
The mysterious figure, who they thought had no power to resist, suddenly had a blue light emanate from his hand!

In the next moment, a blue high-energy beam appeared, swiftly piercing through the approaching guard with the sonic device.
The sonic device in the guard''s hand was obliterated, along with a hole through his chest.
"Ah..."
A scream echoed, and the guard fell to the ground.
What is this?!
Everyone present was shocked.
Eddie''s mouth hung open.
Venom inside Eddie was stunned.
Venom inside Syd was also taken aback.
The smiles on the faces of Drake and the others at the Life Foundation disappeared.
Thomas and the guards widened their eyes in horror, doubting what they had just witnessed.
Hand firing aser?
Sensing the danger, Thomas instinctively pulled the trigger of his ck gun.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Bang! The silver bullet spun rapidly, heading towards its target.
The sudden gunshot startled everyone.
When they saw the bullet''s target, they were even more shocked.
The bullet was stopped by two fingers!

[Divine Finger Experience +1]
The sound of shattering ss echoed as the space around them cracked like a mirror.
In slow motion, the silver bullet twisted under the immense impact, and space fragments cut
deep grooves into it.
In an instant, the bullet reversed direction with a swoosh, flying back.
"Ah, my hand!"
Thomas screamed.
The deformed silver bullet shattered his gun, pierced his hand, and lodged into his elbow.
Clutching his bleeding hand, Thomas was horrified.
The others had simr expressions, all filled with fear.
Staring at the hooded figure standing not far away, they felt a suffocating pressure.
In just a few moments, the blue beam and the casual deflection of the bullet had put immense
pressure on them!
It felt like they were ants, and he was a god standing high above them!
"Who are you?"
Thomas, enduring the pain, asked, "This isn''t the symbiote''s power. You..."
This question wasn''t just his but everyone''s.
Eddie, possessed by Venom, was strong enough, butpared to this guy, he was nothing!
They even suspected this person could easily defeat Eddie!
