"Boom!"
Accompanied by a huge explosion, Hawkeye's mind went blank. He had already been vigilant enough; how could this happen? Victor had suddenly turned into a guy wearing a black tight suit, and then the laboratory exploded violently. He only had time to nock an arrow on the bowstring before he was blown away by the shockwave of the explosion. After his head hit the wall, Barton's consciousness sank into darkness. He fell into a coma. Before losing consciousness, he saw a black figure slowly walking toward him, opening a mouth full of huge fangs.
"Bang! Bang!"
Just as Hawkeye was about to be eaten, the sound of gunfire interrupted the Symbiote's feeding. It nimbly dodged most of the bullets, but the Symbiote still took a few shots. Looking at the holes in its body, the Symbiote looked at the person still attacking it and eventually gave up the idea of eating here. It smashed through the sealed door and rushed out. At this moment, Nick, sitting in the surveillance room, let out a deep sigh of relief. The walkie-talkie in his hand was still emitting static. Although Hawkeye's life was saved, Nick was not happy at all, because the Symbiote had escaped, and it had escaped while possessing Victor. This was a Death sentence. He knew the characteristics of the Symbiote. Although the Symbiote could bring powerful strength to the host, it was also influenced by the host. In other words, the stronger the host, the stronger the Symbiote.
"This is truly a big problem."
Realizing that the most troublesome thing was about to happen, Nick's head felt like it was going to explode. He ordered his subordinates to take Hawkeye and the surviving research team for treatment. He urgently mobilized the newly formed team to pursue Victor Von Doom. He felt that he had been completely played by this kid. He hadn't expected that he had spent so much time plotting, even placing bombs in the lab. This guy felt like he was going to be imprisoned, and he had even taken away the most important Symbiote. Nick was almost pissed to Death. Nick had no idea that this time was actually an accident. Although the bomb was placed by him, he had another method; he wouldn't play such a crude game at all. But the furious Nick didn't notice the abnormality.
Victor had originally planned to clone a new Symbiote and control it, not to wear this Symbiote suit from the lab. Especially since he hadn't made the controller yet, the situation today was completely a mistake. Who could have thought that an idiot in the lab didn't tighten the lid of the container? The Symbiote ran out from the gap of the container it was being kept in and possessed Victor. The process of possession accidentally pressed the control button for the bomb, resulting in this scene—an event created by coincidence.
"How dare you fight for control of my body, you parasite."
The incident happened too suddenly; even Victor was caught off guard. The Symbiote had temporarily seized control of his body. After escaping S.H.I.E.L.D., Victor regained his senses and began to fight the Symbiote for control of his body. Blue electric arcs began to flash on his body. The Symbiote was stunned by this sudden attack and shrank directly into Victor's heart, no longer adhering to the surface of Victor's body. Inside Victor's body, the Symbiote wouldn't be attacked. Incidentally, the Symbiote also began to replicate Victor's genes and replicate Victor's power.
"This parasite has completely ruined the plan."
Seeing the Symbiote cower and not dare to come out at all, Victor stopped wasting energy, but his expression was extremely ugly. Anyone would be upset if they had been meticulously playing tricks on a bunch of fools, only to have their fun ruined in an instant. But Victor had long prepared to leave, so he wasn't excessively angry. While heading toward his destination, he cursed at the Symbiote inside his body.
"At this time, I should go and fool the eldest young lady of the stark family!"
Since this incident had forced him to leave early, Victor was not the type to dwell on one thing. The result was already determined, so it was a matter of how to turn this unfavorable situation into a better one. Next, he planned to use his handsome looks and talent to catch the eye of Artoria Stark, and preferably, hook the soul of this rich young lady. That way, his revenge plan could be executed ahead of schedule. Thinking of Artoria's hot figure and goddess-like face, his carnal desires flared up. This situation made Victor frown. He hadn't intended to think in that direction, but it felt as if an invisible force in his consciousness had instantly amplified his dark side.
"What is happening to me?"
This situation left the excessively rational and arrogant Victor very confused. He didn't have much interest in relationships, and chasing Susan was just to make Reed uncomfortable. Why was he like this now? The clever Victor immediately thought of the tenant in his body: the Symbiote. He didn't expect this parasite-like thing to be able to amplify a person's dark side. If it were an ordinary person, they would have probably gone wild with the Symbiote, acting like a lunatic, their mind eroded by the Symbiote to do all sorts of things. But someone like Victor would never allow his actions to be controlled by a parasite.
"Getting rid of this trouble immediately is the most important thing."
Realizing the extraordinary nature of the Symbiote, Victor doubled his pace. He desperately needed a quiet laboratory now. He wanted to go to Artoria to obtain her protection, and he was willing to offer some special things in exchange. In his mind, Artoria was a mystery. He didn't believe what the media said about her being a powerful superhero. On the contrary, he thought Artoria was the same type of person as him; neither of them liked the hypocrisy of those hypocrites. As long as he showed her the Symbiote on him, he believed he could convince her to help him.
"What is going on? So many demons have actually popped out."
After lightly killing a ghoul with his sword, the panting Steve spoke to Wong, who was already exhausted on the side. Ever since that hell gate appeared in the small town, this situation had occurred in many places across the United States. He didn't know how these demons had come to the human world. He and the mages of Kamar-Taj had no time to rest now. Basically, as soon as they solved the problem in one place, another problem arose elsewhere. He didn't even know what to say. Although the ones they encountered weren't powerful high-level demons, the most important thing was that there were simply too many of them. Not only were there many, but they were also distributed very sparsely, as if they were intentionally spread out to make them kill them one by one.
"You ask me, who should I ask?"
Although Steve's status was now very noble, Wong still rolled his eyes at him with dissatisfaction. How would he know about such things! When the Ancient One was still around, such problems had never occurred. But this guy hadn't been the Sorcerer Supreme for long before this happened. Sure enough, he should look for the cause within himself! Although it was uncomfortable to hold back some words, Wong still held them in. After all, this kind of thing also indicated that this Sorcerer Supreme might not be very capable.
"It seems Earth is facing a great catastrophe."
Steve glanced at Wong, who was panting like a dead pig, and began to use the artifact hanging around his neck. He used the Time Stone inside to deduce what had happened in the future. Ten minutes later, he stopped the operation of the Time Stone, covered in sweat, and looked at the sky in disbelief. He truly couldn't imagine what kind of creature this was, or what kind of food could raise such a massive entity. Clearly, he had seen the appearance of the Planet Devourer Galan. Although this wasn't the scene he wanted to see, this news was undoubtedly the biggest problem.
"It seems I have to go find my senior sister."
