Eddie is in the news, so when he heard the name Hannibal, he was scared to death. This man is undoubtedly a murderer. As for cannibalism... Eddie knows this, it is completely nonsense.
Talk about it, because Eddie also investigated in private and found that there were no human bite marks on the corpses at the scene, but the bite marks of wild beasts were very obvious. Although he didn’t quite understand why Hannibal did this, Eddie was still inclined to
Hannibal himself had no cannibalism.
Of course, Eddie never thought of writing an article to clarify anything for Hannibal. After all, the people like it. In fact, the rumor of Hannibal cannibalizing people is simply made up by the media based on market demand. The media itself caters to public opinion.
sound.
The people like to hear about it, so they will naturally report it.
Of course, whether or not he can eat people is of no comfort to Eddie's current situation. After all, even if Hannibal cannibals, by the time Hannibal actually eats him, he will have already burped, so there is no need to care at all. If it is really serious,
Yes, he is now facing a super murderer.
Of course Eddie was panicked.
Venom was confused and asked through Eddie's mouth: "What do you do?"
Eddie played all superhero scenes, but the problem is that Hannibal has never been a superhero, but has been classified as a super criminal.
"Do some necessary clean-up work. In the past, most of it was targeted at scum, but the world has been a little uneasy recently, and many monsters and monsters have escaped. I have no choice but to change my interest and clean up the human threats like you."
Hearing what Hannibal said, Eddie also thought about it. Indeed, Hannibal's appearance frequency in the past year or two has been very infrequent. Many people thought that Hannibal was hiding. But with this guy's high-profile acting style,
He doesn't look like the kind of person who can tolerate loneliness.
"What's that for?" Venom asked Eddie.
Eddie suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. The most powerful reporter is Lenovo. Based on Hannibal's words, he felt that the truth of the matter may be that Hannibal is an atypical superhero or even an anti-hero. Although he is cruel
, but he will not target good people and ordinary people, he will only target bad guys and those threats to human beings...
If this is really the case... Eddie feels that things are not too bad. At least there is no need to worry about being killed inexplicably.
"You...have been secretly fighting evil to protect mankind?"
Anti-heroes are a concept corresponding to "heroes" and have a completely different style from mainstream superheroes. Such people "false" traditional values, marking the promotion of individualistic ideas and the traditional moral value system
decline and people’s doubts about their ideals and beliefs.
The characteristics of superheroes can be summarized as handsome appearance, powerful abilities, and correct behavior. For example, Batman, this gangster's acting style is very popular with the mainstream, especially those on the left. Although he fights evil, he sticks to the bottom line and criminals
In the end, he will be handed over to the police and punished by law. At the same time, he will never kill anyone. This will please the leftist saints even more, of course, forget about those on the extreme left. These people spare no effort when criticizing Batman for ignoring the human rights of criminals.
But generally speaking, in terms of mainstream values, people still very much recognize Batman. This is why Batman is so popular.
Anti-heroes have ugly appearance, clumsy actions, intellectual retardation, passive personality, pitiable circumstances, deviant behavior and other bad characteristics that are usually not considered heroes. They are shortcomings or failures in some basic aspects. Even
is not acceptable.
Take Hannibal for example. This guy is too cruel. But if what he did is applied to an anti-hero, it would make sense. This boss has never killed ordinary people. During the Chicago Massacre, this guy
A big boss killed an entire Mexican gang, and the young ladies who were invited by the gang to join in the fun were very politely invited into a room by Hannibal. This guy even chatted and ate with the young ladies in a very gentlemanly manner.
No offense at all, but later in the tabloids, these ladies gave Hannibal very high praise.
The same was true for several subsequent dispatches.
Thinking about it this way, he is no different from the Punisher who was a big hit in New York last year.
Eddie himself is not very resistant to anti-heroes, although there are indeed many people who don't like such anti-heroes who are too decisive. But Eddie has a wild heart and likes this kind of super who doesn't take the usual path.
Hero. Of course Batman is his eternal god and that will not change.
Well, Eddie is a Batman controller.
This is why Eddie wants Batman to help fight against the symbiote, so that he can not only protect the world, but also get close to his idol! A win-win situation!
"In terms of results, that's true. But in terms of motivation, it's not."
"Eh?!!" Eddie felt something was wrong.
"I'm just hunting. Protecting humans is incidental. I'm not interested in ordinary people. Of course, there are still basic bottom lines for being a human being. So protecting the world... well, it can't be said that there is none. But subjectively, my
The motives are not that simple."
"Hunting?" Eddie swallowed and asked carefully.
It must not be what he thinks!
"Yes, hunting!" Hannibal showed a bright smile, but there seemed to be deep malice hidden in the smile. Then countless eyes opened in the shadows behind him, looking at Eddie and Venom with salivation.
!"The kind that eats its prey!"
Gulu!
Eddie swallowed the saliva directly into his stomach.
Ruined!
"You...you...you want to kill us and eat us?!!!"
Venom also realized at this time, it was a predator! What's more terrible is that those eyes gave Venom a very bad feeling... He would really be eaten!!!
Venom is definitely the best among symbionts in this kind of consciousness!
To put it bluntly, he is cowardly!
"No, no, no." Kai shook his head. "I don't have that hobby. That was all made up by you reporters and media."
Eddie just breathed a sigh of relief.
But the next second.
"But my pet does."
Then the Hound of Tindalos poked its head out of the shadows and directed its vicious and corrosive saliva at Eddie and Venom!!!
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!"
It has to be said that since the last time the hounds of Tindalos evolved after eating the power of Hell Lord Mephitus, they have become more ferocious and terrifying, the kind that would make ordinary people lose their SAN value when they see them.
So Eddie was scared shitless.
"One of you is an alien and the other is a rapist. So... I'm honored that you are on the menu of these two babies. So accept the reality!"
Perhaps because of his desire to survive, Eddie shouted: "Wait a minute! I have something to say! I have something to say! I didn't betray the earth! I was saving the earth! I instigated Venom, and he was willing to become a spy and cooperate with us to stop the Communist Party.
Biological invasion! I have contributed to the earth! I want to see Batman!!!"
Venom actually had some objections to Eddie's words, but the problem was that he didn't dare to say it. Saving his life was the most important thing at the moment.
Damn it, the earth is too dangerous!
Who was going to come over in the first place?
It killed people!
Hannibal was unmoved: "Do you know what Batman's first reaction would be if he saw you?"
"What?"
"Send you to Kay Wayne. You know, the police chief is looking for you everywhere now."
"Find me?"
"Yes, this police chief, who has always abided by the law, is now thinking about how to shoot you."
"Why..." Eddie was speechless for a moment.
Although he deliberately avoided it, what happened happened. He couldn't really pretend that it hadn't happened.
"I……"
"Haha, forget it, I'm not teasing you anymore. I heard all your previous conversations. However, you don't have to worry too much about the invasion of symbiotes. Except for one of the previous symbiotes, all the others are not in New York.
He was caught by Director Kai. Now there is probably only ashes left."
Hannibal said with a smile.
The problem was that Eddie wasn't happy. He felt like he was going to die.
That disaster... would cause him to die directly from society.
After Hannibal finished speaking, he turned around and prepared to leave.
Hannibal came here with the intention of getting rid of Venom. But after hearing the conversation between Eddie and Venom, Kai changed his mind.
Although in Kai's mind, Eddie was indeed responsible, and he even really wanted to shoot this guy at first. But after he calmed down, he no longer had the murderous intention before. To be honest, Eddie was really responsible in this matter.
innocent.
In this case, Kai's interest in him plummeted.
Seeing Hannibal about to leave, Eddie suddenly stopped him: "Hannibal...Professor...you just left like this?"
"if not?"
Hannibal turned to look at Eddie.
"I..." Eddie didn't know what he was going to say. He only knew that he had no way out. He wanted to ask for help, but he didn't know how to ask. After all, Hannibal was not like a person who liked to help others.
"I...I...caused such a big disaster...I" Eddie thought of his situation, and finally bowed ninety degrees: "Please, help me! I don't know...where to go back
……How to do……"
Hannibal looked at Eddie and suddenly felt that this kid was quite pitiful.
So in a moment of weakness, Hannibal decided to call this little guy down.
"You have three ways."
Eddie looked at Hannibal in surprise. He didn't expect asking for help!
"The first one is to surrender. From what I know about Kai, he won't kill you, probably. Of course, in the best case scenario, you will be sent to the military. Originally, the military planned to arrest you. Kai happens to be a soldier
You are from a good background and have a good relationship with the military. As for what the consequences will be if you fall into the hands of the military... I don't know."
"What?! I absolutely don't want it!" Eddie's first reaction was to refuse. Not to mention the various Frankenstein plots flashing through his mind. He didn't want to become experimental material and then be sliced into pieces. In addition, he put the person chasing him
Those people regard him as a member of the military, and he has become like this. Those people have an unshirkable responsibility.
He would never agree to it even if he died.
Hannibal shrugged: "The other one is S.H.I.E.L.D."
"SHIELD?" Eddie didn't know what it was.
So Hannibal explained S.H.I.E.L.D. to him.
After Eddie heard this, he was immediately moved. To be fair, a super organization that secretly maintains world peace sounds very high-profile at first glance, and it is in line with his aesthetics. But Hannibal's next sentence broke his heart.
His longing.
"Oh, by the way, the people who chased you and shot you before, causing disaster, were the people from SHIELD! In addition, SHIELD's style is much more ruthless than that of the military, and your end will definitely be much worse than if you defected to the military.
." Although Kai didn't lie, it wasn't necessarily true. Anyway, in Kai's impression, SHIELD's image was indeed terrible.
"What?!" Eddie exploded when he heard this: "Those bastards are from SHIELD?!! Falk! Falk! Falk! I'm going to kill those guys!"
"Well, it seems you are not happy." Hannibal smiled, but was not angry because Eddie was so angry. Instead, he continued: "The last way, do you still want to listen?"
Eddie gritted his teeth and nodded with red eyes. This was a look of despair.
"That is, like me, always hiding in the darkness, with no friends, no family, no love, no career. You will always watch in the darkness but never be able to walk into the light. You will become a shadow, silent and silent.
No one pays attention to you, and no one recognizes you. You protect others, but no one knows your name. You protect others, but no one can understand you. You will be misunderstood and hostile. People regard you as a monster.
A murderer, a lunatic, until one day you die in a dark place that no one knows, as if you never existed, and no one remembers you. Are you willing to take such a path?"
Eddie opened his mouth.
Abandon everything about himself...Hidden forever. His life has just reached its peak. He wants to abandon his high salary and rapidly rising career, abandon his girlfriend, abandon his family...Oh, he is not married anymore.
That's okay. There are still friends, he can never see them, he can only remain unknown, like Hannibal, hunting those malicious people or monsters in the dark.
If this was a novel, a movie, or a game, Eddie would think it was cool, but... this is reality. Is he really willing? Can he really endure it?
"I……"
At this moment, Eddie suddenly... felt a little sorry for Hannibal.
Because in his opinion, isn't this the kind of person Hannibal is?
Can I really do it myself?
Little did he know, it was all nonsense!
Hannibal's real body is currently in the director's office, drinking coffee and smoking a cigar, and talking nonsense on the phone with a bunch of senior executives in New York.
"I..." But thinking about his own experience, the official was not full of malice towards him, and the same was true for superheroes. There was also the mysterious culprit SHIELD... watching covetously from the side. He seemed to have no other choice.
"I...will!" At least in this way, you can atone for your sins.
Kai looked at Eddie in surprise. He really didn't expect that Eddie would choose this way. He was purely trying to scare the kid. Of course, he really had no choice at the moment. He thought he would at least choose one side and surrender.
After all, he didn't look like a courageous person just now.
"Haha, remember your choice, if you violate it, you will be my prey."
