However, the scene of a head falling to the ground did not occur.
Strands of fluid-like substance, like living tentacles, actually reconnected Anti-Venom's head, which had flown into the air.
Seeing this, Serena understood completely, "It seems that, as Boss said, ordinary physical attacks cannot effectively kill this kind of alien symbiote."
"Fool, such attacks cannot kill me."
Anti-Venom grinned, baring his fangs, and嚣张叫嚷道: "Although you are not human, and your smell is a bit strange, your brain should be barely edible..."
"Who are you saying smells strange?"
This sentence undoubtedly touched Serena's sensitive nerves, and her expression suddenly changed as she retorted with a murderous aura, "I smell perfectly good, okay!"
Whether human or vampire, as long as they are female, they are destined to be particularly concerned about evaluations related to "beauty."
So...
Before Anti-Venom could finish speaking, a special eight-pointed star-shaped "rune" had already appeared on Serena's forehead.
The corner located in the [Southeast] direction, symbolizing Slaanesh, was already flashing with a mysterious purple light.
Buzz...!!!
Serena suddenly opened her mouth and emitted a psionic scream that threatened to rupture eardrums.
The high-energy sound waves containing [Slaanesh Psionic Energy] actually formed visible ripples in the air, directly enveloping Anti-Venom, who had no time to react.
"Aaaah..."
Anti-Venom immediately let out a series of miserable wails, and the symbiote on his body, like boiling sludge, splashed downwards in large chunks.
Soon, Eddie Brock's approximate outline was revealed from within, "No, damn woman, stop it... Anti-Venom can't take it anymore."
But Serena coldly ignored him, and only when the Anti-Venom symbiote had completely detached from Eddie Brock's body did she suddenly kick him away.
Tear—
Serena took out a [white phosphorus grenade] she had prepared in advance and threw it directly into the heavily injured Anti-Venom symbiote, which was imprisoned in place by [Slaanesh Psionic Energy] and squirmed on the ground like a lump of sludge.
"What are you doing... No, No, No!!!"
Seeing this from afar, Eddie Brock ignored the intense pain coming from his body and scrambled towards the Anti-Venom symbiote.
He seemed to want to use his own flesh and blood to stop the flames from consuming Anti-Venom.
Bang—
But during his crawl, he was knocked to the ground again by John Jameson's haymaker, who had been waiting for this moment.
"Hehehe, I've wanted to beat you up for a long time, you bad thing... Now, just stay on the ground and watch!"
"Aaaah..."
The Anti-Venom symbiote let out a series of miserable screams as the white phosphorus grenade burned.
But under the imprisonment of [Slaanesh Psionic Energy], it was unable to escape and could only be burned alive by the flames of up to a thousand degrees, eventually turning into ashes.
"No, don't kill it... My Anti-Venom, don't die, don't leave me alone..."
Seeing this, Eddie Brock was utterly devastated, banging his head on the ground with a face full of despair, not even noticing the blood flowing from his head.
Having fallen to the bottom in love, career, and life, he had long regarded Anti-Venom as his only bargaining chip for a comeback.
But now, even this last glimmer of hope had been extinguished.
In the days to come, he was destined to live out the rest of his life like a walking corpse.
"Hmph, this is the end for being foul-mouthed!"
Serena said coldly, then drew out the cross sword from her back again and walked towards Eddie Brock.
She wanted to personally chop off the head of this bastard who dared to slander her Boss.
"Miss Serena, it's better to spare his life for now..." However, John Jameson suddenly stopped her at this time:
"Instead of directly killing this waste, it's better to let him publicly accept the severe punishment of the law, and then use this as a warning to those with ulterior motives. If anyone dares to slander Boss in the future, this will be their final fate!"
It must be said.
John Jameson is definitely an expert in publicity and guiding public opinion.
So the things he considers are often very different from the others under Karl.
"Alright then."
Serena glanced at Eddie Brock, who was lying on the ground crying like a useless sissy, with a look of disgust, and said lightly:
"But he can be spared the death penalty, but not the living one... Daring to slander Boss must accept the punishment he deserves."
As soon as she finished speaking, a cold light flashed, and Eddie Brock's two palms were chopped off at the wrists.
"Ah, my hands..."
Eddie Brock let out a painful wail, and then, under the double blow of physical pain and mental shock, his eyes rolled back and he fainted on the spot.
Serena shook the blood off her sword and snorted, "Hmph, let's see if you dare to be hand-mouthed in the future."
Hiss~~
John Jameson felt a chill when he saw this and subconsciously缩到身后.
...
And the scene that happened in this abandoned warehouse was all seen by Karl in [Sokovia], through the shared perspective of the [Mind Link] on Serena's body.
However, even when he saw Serena using the [white phosphorus grenade] to destroy the [Anti-Venom Symbiote], he did not step in to stop it.
Although the [Symbiote Suit] is a very valuable strategic resource for the current [亚空间集团].
But compared to the safety of his core members, Karl obviously cares more about the latter.
He doesn't want his subordinates to feel timid and afraid of certain special resources in the process of performing tasks in the future, thus causing unnecessary sacrifices.
Because in Karl's eyes, talent is the most precious resource!!
And he also completely accepted John Jameson's approach of wanting to send Eddie Brock to court for trial.
On the one hand, even if Anti-Venom was not destroyed, Eddie Brock would not be able to pose any threat to Karl.
On the contrary, it would be as easy for Karl to deal with him as crushing an ant.
Furthermore, as John Jameson said, the follow-up reports through the [号角日报] can not only play an effective warning role and avoid large-scale copycat phenomena in the future.
At the same time, it can also take the opportunity to harvest more [Reputation Points].
It is only beneficial to Karl, and there are no disadvantages.
So... why not do it?
Karl is essentially different from those bosses who always like to be suspicious and arbitrary in dealing with subordinates and delegating power appropriately.
What功高震主?
In his opinion, they are all pretexts used to eliminate dissidents or cover up their incompetence.
As a qualified boss with taste, pursuit, and pattern.
Karl is more willing to see his subordinates think independently and help him solve those trivial and complicated problems.
To this end, he often takes the initiative to leave the opportunity to shine to his subordinates.
Rather than having to do everything himself, it is better to delegate power to his subordinates appropriately, let them enjoy the process of solving problems, and gain faith and growth in it.
After all... these people are all working for him!
Moreover, if everything has to be done by him, the boss, what is the use of him painstakingly recruiting these subordinates?
What is the point of him being the boss?
Where will there be time to open silver parties in the future?
…………
...
The next day.
A news item broadcast by the [号角日报] quickly caused quite a stir in the [New York] news circle.
"According to reporters from this station, Eddie Brock, a well-known journalist who was previously wanted by the police for illegally invading the core laboratory of the [生命基金会], was successfully arrested by a mysterious person last night and transferred to the police station..."
"In addition, according to a source within the police who did not want to be named, there is ample evidence to prove that Eddie Brock is the 'white monster' that previously ate the heads of nearly a hundred innocent people, including Police Chief George Stacy."
The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ said ⊥ is ⊥ at ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥⊥ book ⊥⊥ bar ⊥⊥ first ⊥ hair!
"And he will face nine counts of simultaneous charges, including illegal invasion, intentional homicide, kidnapping, and intentional defamation of other people's reputation... If convicted, he will be sentenced to life imprisonment and spend the rest of his life in prison!!"
Then, at the end of the news, a video that was obviously post-processed, with some voice changes and image processing, was played.
This video is not long, but it completely shows how Eddie Brock, transformed into Anti-Venom,劫走an old man whose face was mosaicked from the underground parking lot, and then took him to an abandoned warehouse and tied him up.
Among them, you can not only clearly see the complete process of Eddie Brock transforming into Anti-Venom and returning to human form.
You can also hear some of the dialogue between him and the abductee.
Among them, he admitted that he had slandered Karl and [Sokovia] on the Internet...
For a time, there was an uproar on the Internet.
While the majority of netizens were criticizing Eddie Brock, they also recalled Karl's previous deeds.
And this unexpected "翻红" brought extremely rich [Reputation Points] to Karl.
After all, the influence of the [号角日报] today is very different from what it was before!
…………
...
[Queens].
"Santa baby, slip a sable under the tree, for me I've been an awful good girl..."
Gwen, with a pink apron covered in Winnie the Poohs tied around her waist, holding a rag and mop, was actively cleaning up the messy room, accompanied by the melodious melody playing on her phone.
After experiencing the "Ultimate Battle" in [Hell's Kitchen], the anger she had accumulated in her heart was greatly released, and her mood improved a lot.
After all, her father often said... only by living well can you best mourn the deceased!
"Hoo—"
After a while, Gwen looked at the room, which had at least restored 70% of its original appearance, and the messy clothes at her feet, which were packed into整理箱 and piled up to her waist, and couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief.
"It turns out that cleaning up the house is much more troublesome than being a street hero. I really don't know how Dad managed to work while taking care of my food, clothing, and living, while maintaining everything in the house in an orderly manner..."
Recalling the bits and pieces that had happened with her father in life, the girl's eyes turned red again inadvertently.
Suck—
Hoo—
Suck—
...
After a few deep breaths, Gwen readjusted her emotions, then first threw the stack of clothes into the washing machine, and then picked up the rag and mop to prepare to take advantage of the victory and clean up the kitchen and dining room together!
But just at this time.
The music playing on the phone suddenly stopped, and then a rapid ringtone rang.
"Hey, Peter, how is your injury?"
Answering the phone, Gwen greeted as usual.
But Peter Parker on the other end of the phone did not rush to reply, but after a brief silence, he said cautiously:
"Gwen, the murderer who ate... I mean, killed Uncle George, seems to have been arrested last night!!"
Clatter—
The mop in Gwen's hand fell to the ground with a light sound that made Peter Parker on the other end of the phone particularly nervous.
Along with it fell two lines of unstoppable hot tears.
"Thank you, Peter..."
Gwen tried her best to control her voice so as not to reveal trembling and哽咽.
Even though she knew that the other party could not see her movements, Peter Parker still waved his hands with an embarrassed expression:
"That... Gwen, don't get me wrong, I just saw it in the news from [号角日报]. If you turn on the TV now, you should still be able to see the complete replay..."
Gwen then quickly rushed to the TV, picked up the remote control to turn it on, and switched to the [号角日报]'s pay channel, where the relevant news was being replayed.
When she saw the scene of Eddie Brock transforming into Anti-Venom.
Gwen saw again the scene of her seeing her father's headless body in the morgue.
Her fists were clenched tightly, almost bursting the phone in her hand.
A suffocating murderous aura instantly filled the entire room.
However, soon Gwen's face returned to the tenderness and sadness that a girl of her age should have.
That's right.
Or when she is on the battlefield, she is the [Demon Princess] who dares to face any strong enemy and makes the enemy tremble.
But at home, she is still the helpless girl who just lost her father...
After a full silence, Peter Parker on the other end of the phone asked cautiously:
"Gwen, do you want me to take you on my bike... ah no, I mean take a taxi and accompany you to the cemetery to visit Uncle George?"
"I think he will be very happy to hear this news, right?"
While Peter Parker was speaking, he quickly reached into his pocket.
He managed to dig out four crumpled ten-dollar bills and silently calculated the distance in his head.
If they didn't tip, the money should barely be enough for the two of them to get to the cemetery by car (Eh? Did he feel like he'd forgotten something?).
