Dora's instructions had no effect.
Eddie quickly entered and started filming the situation with his phone.
Soon, Eddie saw several independent laboratories. In three of them, one symbiote had died, but the remaining two symbiotes and their hosts were still alive.
Eddie took photos of the situations in the three laboratories. When he reached the A1 symbiote laboratory to take photos, he inadvertently alarmed the people inside the lab.
Seeing Eddie about to leave, someone inside A1 began vigorously banging on the lab's window, attracting Eddie's attention. He turned back.
"Eddie, it's me, Maria."
The test subject in the A1 lab was none other than a homeless friend Eddie knew.
"Let me out, it's me."
"Let me out, please."
Eddie was stunned for a moment and looked at the completely sealed laboratory. He said:
"I don't know how to let you out. I don't know how to operate this."
Eddie randomly pressed buttons on the control panel outside the sealed lab, but instead of opening the lab, he triggered an alarm due to lack of authorization, and the test subject inside A1 lab came under attack.
Seeing Maria's painful expression, Eddie didn't care about the consequences. He grabbed a fire extinguisher from the ground and smashed it against the glass door of the lab.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
After continuous pounding, Eddie finally shattered the glass door of the A1 lab. However, Maria inside immediately lunged at him, knocking Eddie to the ground.
"Oh my god, let go."
"Maria, no."
Eddie found himself pinned down by Maria, her hands tightly around his neck. In the next moment, the symbiote Venom from the A1 lab entered Eddie Brock's body.
As Maria died on the spot with the departure of the symbiote, the alarm in the experimental area started broadcasting: "Security breach detected in Zone 3 of the laboratory."
Repeat this alarm as a silver security alert!
All security personnel, please rush to Zone 3 of the laboratory immediately.
Seeing Maria motionless, Eddie called out several times to confirm that she was dead. Realizing he had caused trouble and couldn't stay in the lab any longer, Eddie immediately ran out.
...
In the forest outside the Life Foundation building, Hinata watched Eddie's every move in the lab with her Byakugan.
When Venom entered Eddie's body, Hinata exclaimed, "Heavens!"
Beside her, Kiba, curious, asked, "What's wrong, Hinata?"
Hinata's gaze, through the obstacles, focused on Eddie, observing for a while to confirm she wasn't mistaken, then said, "There's a creature that has entered the target Eddie Brock's body."
"And with the help of that creature, his strength has actually increased."
As Eddie fled, he encountered Life Foundation security personnel. In no time, he effortlessly subdued two strong men, displaying a strength that didn't belong to Eddie himself.
Kiba exclaimed, "Is his strength greatly enhanced?"
Hinata pondered for a moment, then said, "His strength seems quite high compared to before."
"He's running in our direction."
At this moment, Kurenai spoke up, "Stay concealed!"
"Yes!"
The three of them hid among the treetops, invisible to ordinary observers.
Eddie ran out of the laboratory building, looking at the wire fence in front of him. He jumped up and prepared to climb over it, intending to escape.
However, his greatly enhanced strength caused him to tear apart the iron wire mesh and fall into the forest below.
Two security guards who chased after him immediately pulled out their guns and started shooting at Eddie.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
However, the bullets had no effect as all the bullets missed their mark.
"Call for backup, the target has entered the forest!"
"Call for backup, the target has entered the forest!"
Immediately, security personnel drove jeeps and chased Eddie into the forest. The two armed security guards also followed suit, shooting at Eddie as soon as they saw him.
Watching Eddie running wildly in the forest, Hinata, standing on the treetop, asked, "Sensei, do we need to go down and support the target?"
At that moment, Eddie, in his sprint, directly broke a large tree blocking his path.
Watching the scene unfold before them, Kurenai showed a curious expression and then said, "Not for now. Continue observing the target."
Eddie, in the forest, watched as the security personnel chasing him gradually dispersed due to losing sight of him. He was also amazed by his own changes.
What Eddie didn't know was that within a radius of 500 meters around him, there were four people standing on the treetops, watching his every move. Among them, a young girl with Byakugan observed the changes in his body clearly.
...
Having eluded his pursuers, Eddie immediately returned to his apartment and called Dr. Dora, but she didn't answer. He left a message:
"Dora, it's Eddie."
"I just got home. Are you okay?"
"You didn't contact me, so I'm checking on you."
"But the stuff in the lab is indeed intense, just like you said."
As Eddie wrote the message, he rummaged through his fridge for food and drinks.
"Now listen, I know a big shot, and I'm planning to contact him."
"And I took some photos on the scene. As long as I inform him of the situation, we can definitely bring Drake down. But I need you to come with me."
"Give me a call back, don't forget."
Feeling thirsty and hungry, Eddie drank a sip of beer, only to spit it out and switched to drinking cold water while rummaging through his fridge for food.
…
On the other hand-
At this time, Yuhi Kureani reported the progress of the mission to Charles.
"Lord Charles, there's new progress in the target Eddie Brock that you instructed the Eighth Team to track."
"According to Hinata's observation, an unknown creature has entered the target's body, causing a significant increase in his strength, speed, and agility."
"The target has now returned home."
"The first phase of observation has been completed. Shall we proceed to the second phase of the mission?"
It was already the next day, and Charles had just finished taking a shower. As he dried his wet hair with a towel, he was on the phone, saying:
"Continue to observe the target's changes. Wait for my instructions."
"Yes, Lord Charles!"
Charles hung up the phone, a slight smile curling on his lips. "It seems that Venom has made an appearance."
"Eddie, I wonder if you'll contact me voluntarily after learning about all this you've seen."
