“Master Kyle?” Natasha’s hopeful expression faded instantly when she heard that name. She stared intently at the serious-faced Eddie and snapped, “Are you kidding me right now? Where on Earth are we supposed to find that man right now? Not to mention he’s not even on earth.”
“You think I don’t know that, I am just answering your question.” Eddie shrugged helplessly as he spoke, acknowledging his pointless remark.
Everyone knew that if the Symbol of Peace, Kyle, were here, he could handle and even reverse the dire situation they were facing single-handedly. However, Kyle had left Earth three years ago, venturing into the far reaches of the galaxy. His safe return was uncertain not to mention him helping them in this situation.
Loki had surely learned of Kyle’s departure, which was why he chose this moment to strike with his mind-control staff and alien army.

As Eddie and Natasha conversed, the lower level echoed with a sharp cracking sound. The Giant Venom, exhaling hot steam from its nostrils, ripped apart the iron-like outer walls with its bare hands. Its monstrous head, adorned with jagged fangs and glowing white eyes, emerged, reflecting Eddie and Natasha in its vertical pupils.
Eddie and Natasha froze seeing the Giant Venom, turning into statues. Eddie’s face turned ghostly pale as he glanced at Natasha and he suggested in a hushed voice, “I’ll count ‘three-two-one.’ At ‘one,’ we turn and run.”
“Got it.”
Sweat dripped from Natasha’s forehead, her dark red hair clinging to her beautiful face as tension gripped her body. Eddie barely finished saying “one” without counting three and one when they both turned and sprinted down the corridor as if they had practiced countless times.
The Giant Venom paused momentarily before letting out a furious roar. It picked up a heavy gas cylinder as if it were a toy and hurled it towards the upper corridor.
Without looking back, the expression on Natasha’s face changed as she instinctively pushed Eddie to the ground. A massive steel pipe whooshed overhead, smashing into the corridor ahead and sealing their escape route.
Simultaneously, two black tendrils shot out like bullets toward their backs. Natasha reacted quickly, shoving Eddie and rolling aside, causing the tendrils to miss and embed themselves on the floor.
Seizing the moment, Eddie and Natasha scrambled to their feet, pressing their backs against the blocked corridor entrance, holding their breath as they watched the Giant Venom retract its tendrils.
The Giant Venom’s eyes glowed coldly as it surveyed them with a predatory gaze, drooling venom from its fangs.
“We’re doomed,” Eddie muttered bitterly.
Natasha remained silent before she stepped forward with her hands raised in a placating gesture. She pleaded, “Banner, remember who you are. Don’t let anger and violence consume you. This is your body— only you should control it!”
The Giant Venom glared at Natasha, then broke into a sinister grin. It opened its mouth and spoke in a gravelly voice, “Unfortunately, this body is mine now.”
“That voice…” Eddie trembled, a mix of hope and dread in his voice. “Venom, is that you?”
“Don’t speak to me in such a tone, we’re not friends,” The Giant Venom sneered at Eddie.
Eddie’s smile froze before he clutched his chest and said, “That’s harsh you know. You lived in my body for years.”
“You were a weak host, offering me no power. Now, I feel unstoppable,” The Giant Venom boasted, flexing its dark fist. “With this strength, I can defeat that man…”
Before it could finish, a silver hammer flew at high speed, striking the Giant Venom’s back. Eddie and Natasha dodged just in time as the giant crashed through the blocked corridor into another section of the Helicarrier.
The hammer returned along its original path, revealing a tall, muscular man with blonde hair and a red cape, wielding it with authority. “Are you referring to me?” He challenged.
“Thor!” Natasha and Eddie exclaimed as a feeling of relief flooded their faces. On this Helicarrier, if anyone could stand up to the Giant Venom, it was the god of thunder himself.
“Loki escaped in the chaos. I can’t chase him so I’ll handle this,” Thor declared confidently while looking at Eddie and Natasha.
Before he could finish, the Helicarrier trembled violently as if struck by a series of explosions. A massive shadow streaked across the distance, appearing before Thor in an instant.
Too fast!
Thor’s eyes widened in shock as he faced the dark, muscular chest of the Giant Venom and its enormous hand.
Reacting on instinct, Thor swung his hammer forward, but the Giant Venom’s hand caught it, along with Thor’s fist. Thor’s expression changed as he realized the giant’s overwhelming speed and strength.
“Feel the power of the storm!” Thor roared, his body crackling with lightning. The electricity surged through his hammer and into the Giant Venom, but the giant only grinned, slightly slowed by the shock. It held onto Thor’s hand tightly, lifting him off the ground.
“An ant, claiming to be a god?” The Giant Venom mocked, spinning Thor like a hammer and smashing him into the ground.
The Helicarrier shuddered, and the iron floor dented with Thor’s impact. The Giant Venom repeatedly slammed Thor into the ground, and blood splattered from the god’s battered body until the lightning around him faded completely.
“That’s cruel,” Natasha winced. “He’ll die at this rate.”
Eddie gritted his teeth as he spoke. “We can’t do anything. We wouldn’t survive even a single blow.”
With a final, devastating throw, the Giant Venom flung Thor to the ground, surveying the fallen god with indifference. Thor lay motionless, his once-majestic armor shattered, his body bruised and bleeding.
The battle had been decided in an instant. Thor wasn’t weak; he had been caught off guard, and the Giant Venom’s close-combat prowess was simply unmatched. It was a force that seemed to stand at the pinnacle of the galaxy.
