The reason why Eddie wanted to descend directly from the outer wall to the ground was not only because there might be too many monsters in the building, but also because he discovered that the ward he was in when he landed here was located on the side of the inpatient department of the hospital.
, downstairs here is a small forest that few people come to. There are no zombies in sight and it is very quiet. It is the best place to land.
Eddie, who was tying the rope, couldn't help but think of the zombie who had his head bitten off by the venom and still stood up staggeringly from the ground.
At that time, the zombie's body could still follow its instinct and rush toward him. If Venom hadn't thrown it out, the sharp claws would have hit him.
Eddie felt more and more that he had made the right choice. It was definitely a bad idea to fight a monster that could move even after its body was separated. No matter how much symbiote factor the venom contained, it was not enough.
More importantly, he knew that the venom was not immune to injury, and the dense skin formed by changing the arrangement of factors was not completely invincible, but the reason why it seemed that it would not be injured by human weapons was just because the symbiote factors were sufficient, and just
It will be filled if it is destroyed, so it looks like there is no damage.
In order to protect the host under the mask, the venom must sacrifice part of the symbiote factor to counteract the opponent's attack.
When there is sufficient food, symbiont factors will be produced naturally, but if there is no food supplement for a long time, the consumed symbionts will not be replenished.
Venom has received a large amount of energy several times before, and most of the energy has been converted into symbiote factors. If Gray Mist is not a member of the symbiote, then Venom is by far the most powerful symbiote.
But Eddie also knows another thing. The amines obtained by the symbionts from the human body are the normal food of their species, and the energy is more like a powerful nutrient. They can taste and taste the amines.
Get happiness.
Just like human beings may one day be able to meet their nutritional needs for survival through various chemical agents, but I am afraid that unless the situation is urgent, no one will voluntarily do so, because food is a kind of enjoyment for human beings, and fat loss
Human beings can still live in this period, but there are only a few who are not crazy.
Eddie is worried that the consumption of power will make Venom's appetite stronger, and it is very painful for the symbiote to be hungry but unable to eat a large amount of amines. Eddie has not yet figured out what happened to the portal explosion. What if they want to
If you stay here for a long time, the venom will have to face this kind of pain for a long time.
So Eddie thinks it's better to keep the venom in a semi-dormant state. After leaving the hospital, he will try to find a supermarket that still has stock to see if he can stock up on some chocolate.
While thinking about the next step, Eddie tightly tied the fire safety belt to the pole fixed to the wall of the hospital bed cover. After tying it, he tied the fire safety belt between the head and tail for slow descent.
The straps all hang on one arm.
He supported himself with his other hand, climbed up the window and took a look down. The grove was quiet as usual, and the nearest zombie within sight was two streets away. This was a rare opportunity.
But when he lowered his head, Eddie broke into a cold sweat again. This was the eighth floor, and he was afraid of heights.
Even if he has already understood the power of the venom, he will still choose to refuse when the venom asks him to jump from a tall building. Human beings are a species that is weak in body and weak in spirit. There are some psychological obstacles that cannot be overcome.
Eddie swallowed and took a few deep breaths. He thought, no, that's not the reason. Of course, he refused because Venom would allow him to refuse. Venom would take him to the elevator after he refused. They even used to walk slowly.
He walked down the fifteenth floor from the walking stairwell. Venom muttered all the way, but still accompanied him down the stairs.
If Venom is really a ferocious parasite, like the riot that possessed the president of the Life Foundation before, he must be jumping at will and not caring whether Eddie is scared to death.
Eddie recalled that he gave lectures to the agents who wanted to cooperate with the symbiotes at SHIELD, training them to initially accept the symbiotes and fight with them.
At that time, he keenly discovered that the vast majority of newborn symbionts did not have the ability to empathize. They only had the instinct to devour. When faced with this situation, experienced cosmic agents like Lan Ling could only
It will strengthen the host's defense, adjust the structure of the host's brain area, reduce their fear, and then "321" jumps down.
In fact, they have no responsibility at all to understand the weakness of human beings, especially there is no need to understand fear. Since fear will both make the host uncomfortable and delay the efficiency of work, then just eliminate it.
But Venom has never done this. Eddie is afraid of jumping down, so Venom will accompany him up the stairs or take the elevator. Eddie is afraid of gunshots, so Venom tries to avoid the fire area as much as possible. Even Eddie is afraid of cockroaches. Venom
They always led him out of the room as quickly as possible instead of reaching out and patting him in the simplest way.
Venom often mocked Eddie for being a coward, but he was the culprit why Eddie was still a coward after half his life.
Thinking of this, Eddie took a deep breath, tightened his seat belt tightly, leaned out of the window, and really stepped on the outside of the building with one foot.
The sound of swallowing was extremely loud, and Eddie moved tremblingly downward. It took him a long time to go down only one meter.
He closed his eyes tightly, frowning and not daring to look down, but his reason told him that this speed was not good, and there was no place where zombies would never come.
Eddie took a few deep breaths, adjusted his breathing, and began to increase his pace as he descended. Under a full moon, the small black images were the water droplets that fell when the ice cone melted, slowly falling downwards.
.
"Do you want to know what your heart rate is right now?"
Venom's voice came too suddenly. Eddie's hands clenched tightly. He gritted his teeth and yelled: "Don't make any sudden noise! Do you want to scare me to death?"
"You're almost scared to death." Venom rarely said this in a mocking tone. Instead, he said a little hesitantly: "Tachycardia, muscle twitching, accelerated breathing, and some neurological disorders. Don't you
Let me take you to jump from a tall building, and you will almost scare yourself to death in the process of jumping."
"It's going very well so far." Eddie tried hard to control his tone of voice and said, "I'm descending faster and faster. I'll be able to touch the ground in another seven or eight minutes at most."
After saying that, he ignored Venom, grabbed the seat belt in his hand as steadily as possible, and retreated step by step.
The situation is indeed getting better. On the one hand, human beings may indeed be able to unleash their infinite potential in critical situations. On the other hand, it is going backwards after all. As long as you don't look down and keep your head down while walking, the fear will be greatly reduced.
Eddie once again plucked up the courage to look under the gap between his feet. He was now in the middle of the fifth to sixth floors. The whole process went much faster than he expected. Maybe he would be able to return to the ground in another five minutes.
Up.
When he thought of this, Eddie breathed a sigh of relief, and the dizziness caused by his fear of heights also dissipated a little.
But as he continued to hold on to the seat belt and descend, he found that his hands were a little itchy. Eddie looked up and saw something black on the back of his hands.
He raised a hand, and the black things dropped to the original position of the hand. The hand he picked up grabbed the lower place, and the original hand picked it up again, and Eddie dropped again.
Two steps.
But at this time, dark things appeared on the backs of both hands. Eddie thought it might be the shadow cast by the moonlight, but he didn't know what kind of shadow it was, so between changing hands, he used his free time to
The hand that came out touched it.
That's human hair.
Eddie looked up in disbelief and saw a female ghost with hollow eyes and bleeding profusely lying on the safety rope looking at him, with the ends of her black hair hanging down on the back of his hand.
"ah!!!!!!!"
Eddie couldn't control his screams at all.
There are several famous Japanese ghost movies that have been popular in Europe and the United States, and are also the childhood shadow of many Americans. Unfortunately, these people also happen to include Eddie, who was once frightened by coconut milk and had nightmares for a week.
What was even more frightening was that the female ghost held his seat belt head-down and climbed down step by step, getting closer and closer to Eddie.
Eddie switched his hands like crazy and slid down as fast as possible. In the panic, he didn't have time to walk a few meters before mustering up the courage to look at his feet like before, and he couldn't accurately judge where he was going.
direction of force.
The final outcome was that Eddie went further and further away, and when he reached the window on the fifth floor, he stepped on the air and fell directly.
Fortunately, Eddie had estimated the approximate height of the eighth floor before starting, and tied the fire safety belt to his chest, back, waist and crotch at an equal distance but four or five feet shorter to prevent a sudden fall.
This safety suit made of fire safety belts played a great role. Although the impact of the fall was still not small, fortunately the fire safety belts also had a certain degree of toughness. Eddie was almost at the height of about the fifth floor.
Went bungee jumping once.
Although this is a huge psychological impact for patients with acrophobia, fortunately it does not hurt their bodies.
At the moment when he was suspended by the seat belt, Eddie had no time to fear and was filled with only joy.
Fortunately, when he worked in a newspaper office before, he saw workers cleaning glass curtain walls and vaguely remembered the structure of their safety clothing.
If he had only tied the seat belt around his waist like in the TV series, his internal organs might have been ruptured by the impact of the fall.
After touching himself, there was nothing serious about his whole body. However, Eddie found that his estimation of the distance between floors was not very accurate. The position where he was tied was a little closer. He was now hanging under the window on the second floor, far from the ground.
There is still a certain distance.
Eddie estimated that he could continue to slide down as long as he loosened part of his safety suit, so he began to untie the safety belt wrapped around his body, but at this moment, he heard the sound of ropes rustling on the ground.
Eddie looked down and saw two zombies staggering towards this side.
Eddie recalled his scream just now. It seemed that it was similar to the setting in zombie movies. Zombies would be attracted by the sound, but the difference was that the zombies in this universe moved much faster, rushing from two streets away.
It only took less than a minute to get here.
Seeing them approaching at high speed, Eddie was either advancing or retreating. Climb up. The female ghost upstairs stared at him eagerly. Jump down. Eddie was not sure he could outrun the zombies.
Eddie was heartbroken, stretched out his hands, grabbed the edge of the second-floor window, used all his strength to push himself up, put his knees on the edge of the second-floor window, and then lay down on the surface of the window.
Eddie took out his key from his pants pocket, held it in his hand and smashed it against the corner of the window. At this moment, he was not in the mood to care about whether it would attract zombies in the building, because these two unlucky people at his feet
The thing is ready to take off.
With a "crash", the glass was smashed, and Eddie rushed into the room where the window was without hesitation.
Fortunately, the two taller zombies outside didn't seem to be very good at using their arms. Although they jumped high, they couldn't grab the window sill, so they didn't chase Eddie in.
Just when Eddie breathed a sigh of relief, he saw a spider crawling out of the preparation room at the other end of the ward.
It basically looks like an ordinary spider. The only problem is that this thing is as tall as half a person.
