Inside the bar’s dance hall.
The trendy music swept through the air like waves, impacting the men and women wildly dancing within. The blinking neon lights on the ceiling made them look like colorful beasts, fully releasing the pressure and emotions from their day’s work, or seeking primal desires with each other.
Eddie struggled to push through the crowd with his hands, making his way into the cheering and dancing crowd.
Caesar, on the other hand, sat steadily on Eddie’s left shoulder. No matter how he moved, there was no tendency to fall. His small hand held the small piece of iron that seemed to have fallen from the attacker, and his large eyes scanned ahead coldly. “We’re getting close.”
Some animals with different evolutionary paths could use their noses or eyes far superior to humans to find their chosen targets. Moreover, Caesar, with extraordinary senses, could never be escaped by the criminals as long as they remained alive in this world.
Caesar ordered, “Venom, also sense if there are any humans nearby with energy levels exceeding those of ordinary adults.”
“Sure thing, Master!”
Venom was even more sensitive than Eddie, knowing who had the upper hand at the moment. It immediately agreed and skipped Eddie to begin its perception.
“Turncoat,” Eddie cursed under his breath, but he became even more serious, scanning the unfamiliar faces with a vigilant gaze.
Just as the three of them were fully engaged in perception and surveillance, a surprised female voice came from behind them, “Oh, what a coincidence!”
Caesar turned around to see a blonde girl squeezing out of the crowd. Her delicate face was made up, her lips were red and her skin was white. She wore a white strapless dress that only reached her knees, showcasing her youthful and charming figure.
Eddie also turned around, and upon seeing the youthful and charming blonde girl, he couldn’t help but sigh deeply, wearing an expression of ill luck as if he had stepped in dog poop. “Why is it you again.”
Caesar also felt strange. The person in front of him was indeed Annie Weying. It was unclear whether her luck was good or bad, but she always seemed to run into them wherever they went.
The first time, Caesar took action to save her; the next day, they met again at Stark Industries’ office building; now, while tracking down the culprit to Queens, they encountered her once again…
“Why can’t it be someone else.”
Annie snorted with her hands on her hips, before she could even explain, two beautiful women followed her.
“Annie, bumping into someone you know?”
One of the blonde women asked while the other redhead smirked.
They were both around twenty-five years old, with exceptional looks and unique characteristics. They wore stylish dresses that showcased their figures attractively, drawing the attention of many men around them.
Caesar blinked, finding them to be familiar faces, and indeed, old acquaintances.
One was Jane Foster, Thor’s long-distance girlfriend, and the other was her friend Lucy Louise, who had confessed to him six months ago.
With three of them together, could they gather enough players for a game of mahjong tonight?
Annie waved her hand, not even looking at Eddie, and stared directly at Caesar on his shoulder, saying softly, “These are my two college friends, Jane Foster and Lucy Louise. We’re meeting up after work tonight.”
“Nice to meet you.” “Such a cool little guy.”
Jane and Lucy thought Annie was introducing them to Eddie and reached out their hands with smiles, shaking hands lightly with Eddie.
“Just call me Eddie.” Eddie smiled in response.
Annie looked at him displeasedly and warned, “Let me tell you, don’t even think about catching their attention. Jane has a violent maniac for a boyfriend. As for Lucy, she’s had her eye on someone for a long time, and it’s not your turn.”
“What are you talking about, Annie? I don’t have a boyfriend. If there’s a suitable one, I wouldn’t mind falling in love.”
Jane’s face was cold, evidently not pleased with Thor’s disappearance, which had made her unhappy for the past six months.
That picked-up boyfriend of hers might have died in the realm of the gods, right?!
The trendy music swept through the air like waves, impacting the men and women wildly dancing within. The blinking neon lights on the ceiling made them look like colorful beasts, fully releasing the pressure and emotions from their day’s work, or seeking primal desires with each other.
Jane felt both resentful and worried.
Lucy, on the other hand, rarely lowered her head shyly, her charming face tinged with a faint blush, making her look even more criminally enticing.
“Oh, by the way, who’s this child?” After a brief chat, Jane and Lucy quickly noticed Caesar on Eddie’s shoulder, both widening their eyes in astonishment.
Annie smiled knowingly and said, “His identity will definitely surprise you!”
Before she could finish, Eddie suddenly shook all over, as Venom inside him gave an urgent alert: “Target found! Eddie, about five meters to your left, there’s a man wearing a leather jacket and a black hat. He has energy levels exceeding those of normal humans!”
Eddie glanced to the side and indeed saw a tall man wearing a leather jacket and a hat, facing away from them as if he were about to leave through the corridor behind the dance hall.
“Master, stay here, I’ll go after the target!” Eddie quickly said, immediately picking Caesar up from his shoulder and stuffing him into Annie’s arms. Then, he dove into the crowd and pursued the target man.
“What are you going to do?” Annie instinctively held Caesar close, while Jane and Lucy looked at Eddie’s retreating figure with surprise and suspicion.
Caesar grumbled discontentedly, “Why is he in such a hurry? And, he won’t leave me behind as a burden, will he?”
Meanwhile.
The target man in front, Eddie chasing behind, the two staged a continuous chase, moving further away from the dance hall, finally reaching the sparsely populated and desolate back corridor.
“Where do you think you’re going?”
With a quick step forward, Eddie closed the remaining distance, reaching out to put his hand on the target man’s shoulder from behind.
“That’s a question you should be asking me!”
The target man snorted coldly, showing no intention of trying to escape. With a sudden twist, he effortlessly shook off Eddie’s hand, then swiftly reached out his hands, using counterattack techniques to restrain Eddie’s left arm.
Eddie was taken aback and tried to pull his arm back, but the man’s hands possessed inhuman strength, like a pair of iron clamps. Even with Eddie’s trained body, he couldn’t break free.
At this moment, the target man spoke into his collar microphone, calm and steady: “You can move now!”
Oh no, they have reinforcements!
Eddie started to panic a bit. “Venom, hurry up and help!”
“Do you think you need to tell me?!” Venom replied hoarsely. In the next instant, black liquid lines appeared from Eddie’s chest. The target man’s blue eyes slightly contracted, but before he could react with his inhuman reflexes, the monstrous claw formed by the condensed black liquid struck heavily against him.
“Bang!”
Without warning, the target man flew backward, crashing through the wooden back door behind him, along with shattered wood chips, rolling out onto the street ten meters away.
“Go!”
Covered entirely in Venom, Eddie transformed into a black monster born purely for combat. His slender eyes emitted a cold light as he violently charged forward, his massive muscular body breaking through the walls surrounding the back door, accompanied by a wave of dust, heading straight towards the target man still lying on the ground.
“Swoosh!”
A modified mechanical arrow, with a tiny red light blinking, suddenly inserted itself into the fray from a nearby street building, abruptly attempting to intercept Eddie’s strong attack.
Eddie, in Venom’s full coverage state, paid no attention and chose to ignore it. However, when the arrow feathers landed on him, they exploded with powerful force like high-explosive grenades!
