Under the lights of the night, an unkempt man walked silently on the street. He was disheveled and unshaven, with his hands in his pockets. He always lowered his head when walking, and had a bitter look on his face.
He looked quite out of place with the glamorous pedestrians around him, and seemed to be in the process of evolving into a homeless man.
Eddie Brock doesn't think of himself as a homeless person.
He thought he might be a stray dog.
No wonder Eddie thinks so, after all, he has just reached the lowest point in his life.
Because he tried to report on the scandal of the Life Foundation not long ago, he lost his job and his girlfriend, turning from a decent reporter into a penniless and down-and-out Luther.
He now has to endure the cramped living space and noisy neighbors every day, faces overdue credit card bills every day, and sometimes even has to worry about food.
Eddie Brock, who has reached the bottom of his life, feels that he is definitely the most miserable person in the world. Even a homeless man can live a more comfortable life than himself.
At least one tramp he knew lived a more comfortable life than he did, a "female tramp" to be precise, Maria.
Although Maria sleeps on the street, she always seems to be in a happy mood, which makes Eddie envious.
But today Maria disappeared for unknown reasons. Her bed and many trivial items were still on the street, but there was no trace of her.
Eddie looked at the messy pavements on the street and seemed a little surprised, but in the end he didn't think much about it. He thought that maybe Maria had something urgent to do and left for a while.
He passed by Maria's random shop and came to a small supermarket. After chatting with the shop owner for a few words, he began to choose the food rations for the next few days.
"Mr. Bullock." A hesitant female voice said.
Eddie looked up and saw a thin, delicate woman wearing glasses appearing in front of him: "Who are you?"
The woman looked around, then nervously and carefully pulled him to the corner, lowering her voice and saying: "I am Dora Scholes, a scientist from the Life Foundation. I came to see you..."
When he heard that the other party was from the Life Foundation, Eddie's face suddenly tightened, and he turned around to leave.
"Wait, Mr. Bullock, listen to me!" Dora quickly grabbed him and said, "The rumors about the Life Foundation's human experiments are true. Drake is indeed doing illegal human experiments, and there are people
Die for this!"
"The Foundation found some poor people who were unable to resist, made them sign an agreement that they had no idea what it meant, and then used them as guinea pigs to combine with the symbiote!"
"...What is a symbiote?"
Dora hesitated for a moment, then explained: "The symbiote is a special alien creature that must be combined with the host to survive normally. But after combining, the host and the symbiote can show some amazing physical strength, far beyond that of ordinary people."
, of course, there are more terrible side effects.”
Eddie was silent for half a second, and couldn't help but ask: "Why are you telling me this, and why should I believe you?"
Dora gasped slightly: "Drake is killing people, I can't sit back and ignore it... But I don't have the ability, nor the courage enough, and I have children, so I think I can only ask you."
"Please, please? What can I do? I have lost everything. If you came to me three months later, I would have been sleeping there!" Eddie pointed to Maria's floor on the street, feeling a little emotional.
Dora motioned for him to be quieter, and then said: "I will find a suitable time to sneak you to the foundation's laboratory, where you will take pictures and then leave... You are an excellent reporter, and you know what to do next.
How to do it."
When Eddie heard this, he couldn't help but be silent for a long time.
"Please, Mr. Bullock," Dora said earnestly.
…
A few days later.
Another night, Eddie Brock quietly sneaked into the laboratory of the Life Foundation under the leadership of Dora, taking the camera he never discarded no matter how poor he was.
"This is it, hurry up and take pictures, I'll go outside and watch." Dora warned, then hurriedly left the laboratory and went outside to keep an eye on Eddie.
Eddie didn't dare to neglect and quickly took pictures everywhere in the laboratory with his camera.
Just like Dora said, Drake, the boss of the Life Foundation, is indeed conducting cruel and inhumane human experiments, and several corpses with tragic death conditions are the best evidence.
As long as this evidence can be exposed, Drake will definitely suffer a major blow and may even be imprisoned.
Thinking that he would be able to take revenge on the Life Foundation soon, Eddie couldn't help but feel a little happy in his heart, and he took photos faster and faster, one after another.
"Eddie!" However, at this moment, a shout that was almost completely isolated by the glass came from behind.
Eddie was startled, turned around and saw that his old friend Maria was locked in a small glass compartment.
"Maria!" Eddie couldn't believe it and ran over quickly, "What's wrong with you?"
"Help me, Eddie, get me out!" Maria slapped the glass wall like crazy and shouted hoarsely, her messy hair shaking.
Eddie didn't expect that his friend would be here. In a panic, he hurriedly pressed the device on the door.
As a result, this move not only failed to open the door, but triggered the laboratory alarm.
"Alert! Intrusion alert!"
Dangerous sounds sounded everywhere and multiple red lights flashed.
"Fuck!" Eddie collapsed and wanted to rescue Maria again.
So he quickly reached out and grabbed a fire extinguisher and smashed it against the glass with all his strength.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Under his fierce smashing, cracks appeared in the glass. What he didn't expect was that Maria actually took advantage of this and broke through the glass barrier in one fell swoop, coming over like a hungry wolf!
"What are you going to do!" Eddie was shocked, but Maria's power became extremely strong for some reason, and he couldn't resist, so she threw him to the ground.
Then a scene that horrified Eddie happened.
As Maria screamed in pain, many golden viscous objects surged out of her body, and then quickly integrated into Eddie's body like a sponge in water.
As soon as the golden goo left her body, Maria fell to the ground and stopped moving.
"Don't move!" At this moment, two teams of men in black with guns rushed into the laboratory from various entrances, and were about to surround Eddie and subdue him.
Eddie, however, seemed to be possessed by a god. He moved without any hesitation and broke through the blockade of the man in black.
Then he shot out like a cheetah sprinting with all his strength, smashed through the glass window in a blink of an eye, and fell directly from the roof of the building!
Looking at the falling height of dozens of floors, Eddie cried instantly.
What the hell am I doing?
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a deep voice suddenly sounded: "Coward, your name is Eddie too?"
"Who are you?" Eddie, who was in free fall, was startled and could not find the source of the sound, which made him wonder if he had reached heaven.
But...why is the angel's tone and voice so rough?
The rough voice didn't answer him.
The next moment, Eddie's arms were suddenly wrapped in a golden sticky object with a texture like asphalt. They became powerful and golden, and then were inserted directly into the wall of the building without his control!
