"Riot has shared a lot of knowledge about the symbiote species with that human. That human used that knowledge to conduct numerous experiments on me. He even extracted the symbiotic factor from my body to create countless offspring capable of infecting humans."
"They left me very weak. The human wanted me to inhabit an ordinary person for another round of experiments. I didn't want to do this, but I had no other choice. If I found a host, even an ordinary human, I might find a chance to escape."
"When I found out that you have been parasitized by Venom, I was devastated. That's even worse than an ordinary human. But I didn't expect... "
Phantom asked Peter with some confusion, "How come you are so powerful? By my understanding of ordinary humans, it's impossible for you to have such great strength."
"I don't know either." Peter shrugged, "We have to stop those two now. Let me think..."
Peter used a spider silk to stick to a nearby building, swung over the heads of the two fighting monsters, and finally stuck on the glass curtain wall of a building across the street. He said, "Thank goodness it's late at night. There aren't many people here. Otherwise evacuating the crowd would be a trouble."
"Hey, wait. Why are they running?"
Peter saw Riot, who was being chased by Venom, finally couldn't stand it anymore and jumped over an entire street with a blast jump, began to flee in another direction.
"We have to catch up with them!" Phantom said anxiously, "Riot is a war maniac and Venom is a lunatic. If they start fighting, all of New York will be destroyed!"
Peter chased them in the direction they were fleeing, and asked Phantom, "You seem to know a lot about humans?"
"I told you, before you, I inhabited several ordinary humans. The first person I inhabited was a nurse, and I worked in a hospital with her for over a month..."
"I have to admit." The hoarse female voice sounded nostalgic. Peter even heard a touch of tenderness in it, "Humans are the most fragile intelligent race I've ever seen, but at the same time, they are also the strongest."
"...Alright, Peter." Phantom's tone began to grow more somber, "I'm not a power-type symbiote like them, but I have other special abilities that other symbiotes' don't. Hand over the control of your body to me, and I'll help you catch up with them."
Just as Peter was about to agree, he felt himself suddenly zooming backwards so fast that his surroundings blur in his field of view. Looking in a shop window, he saw that he had become a semi-transparent shadow and was flying at an incredible speed. In a single breath, he had flown far ahead of the two monsters.
"I'm the weakest in strength, but also the fastest among cosmic special agents." Phantom's voice echoed in Peter's mind, "I can move through the universe without the help of any external objects, even faster than some spaceships."
"I can also teleport, become invisible, clone myself. That's why I'm called Phantom."
"Cool--"
Right after Peter finished commenting, he saw the two monsters turn a corner and run towards Greenwich Village. Phantom was about to take Peter to fly again, but Peter shouted, "Wait! I have to make a call first..."
"Mr. Strange..."
Meanwhile, Strange in the Holy Sanctuary raises his arm to block the scattering debris from the collapsing building. He yelled at the mages, "Get the civilians out first!!"
"Hold on! I'm just about to sign a contract!" a suited man yelled from his desk.
A nearby mage pulled him out of the way of falling rubble from the ceiling and picked up his abandoned phone, shouting into it, "I'm sorry! Things are a bit chaotic here, can we talk later?!"
A phone suddenly flew up on Strange's right. The staff who was holding the phone tried to grab it while saying, "Wait!! Mr. Mephisto, let's talk about this, it's force majeure, please calm down..."
There was a burst of intense noise from the other end of the phone. It sounded like cursing in devil's language. Suddenly, a cluster of hellfire exploded around the small phone, and the voice of Mephisto came through, "Strange! What the hell are you doing?! Didn't I tell you, I have a negotiation with Satannish today! My assistant needs to be online all day! I've already paid the deposit..."
Strange grabbed the phone with his magical ribbon and said to Mephisto, "I'm sorry, Mr. Mephisto, someone attacked the Holy Sanctuary..."
"As you know, the people working here are ordinary people. In order to ensure their safety, we must temporarily suspend business and evacuate them first."
"You damned humans! My negotiation is at a critical point! We were already discussing the land price near the Central Magma Pool!! This could affect my income for the next 100,000 years, and you're telling me you're not doing it anymore?!"
While Strange helped the other mages open the teleport portal to evacuate the ordinary people, he tried to explain, "But this is indeed force majeure, there are two monsters the size of hills attacking here..."
As he said this, Riot threw a punch and a building next to the Holy Sanctuary collapsed. This caused the Sanctuary's building to shake violently. Strange staggered a bit and said, "Half the buildings here have collapsed, and until they're repaired, we probably won't be able to..."
Mephisto interrupted him, "Wait! You said two monsters?... Hold on!"
The flames around the phone disappeared, and before Strange could react to what the Hell's Master meant, the crimson band in his hand suddenly shook off, escaping from Strange's control, and then a financial advisor behind Strange let out a wail.
"My computer!!! I spent two hours on that report!!!"
"Oh, yes, I'm really sorry... Mr. Setorak, we've had a bit of a situation here, my computer just got ruined, so I'm afraid the data you need might be delayed for another two days..."
Strange watched as the crimson band in front of him slowly curved and then with a "Pop" turned into a question mark.
Strange took a deep breath, he took out his phone and called Wong, "Wong, there's been a bit of a situation at The Sanctum, you'll have to run to Asgard and broadcast a cosmic message through their Rainbow Bridge, announcing that The Sanctum has suffered an act of God and will be temporarily closed for three days..."
Then, Venom leapt high into the air, pounced forward, and slammed Riot onto the roof of The Sanctum. After a deafening sound, what was left of the ceiling also collapsed. Strange sighed, "the destructive power of these two monsters is too strong, make it a week... no, half a month."
The red ribbon in front of Strange straightened again, and with a "Pop" turned into an exclamation mark.
By this time, Spider-Man had jumped between the two symbiotes, taking advantage of their brief separation from grappling, Peter stretched out his arm, blocked the two monsters who wanted to fight again and shouted: "Stop!! Don't fight anymore!!!"
Riot completely ignored the Spider-Man in the middle, he opened his mouth wide and said to Venom: "Venom! You crazy creature! What does the dispute between me and the Cosmic Special Agents have to do with you? Why are you incessantly pursuing me?!"
Venom looked at Riot, the sound slowly shifting from low to high: "Because I am Venom... I am vengeance!!!!!!"
Spider-Man first looked to the left then to the right, Phantom in his head said, "It seems that they're both crazy, we..."
In an instant, Spider-Man's spider-sense tingled, he rolled forward to dodge, above his head, a black and grey beast roared collide together, like the clash of cold water and hot oil, countless symbiotic factors splashed around, the shockwave completely destroyed the surrounding buildings.
Strange, holding the crimson band, jumped down from the second floor, the remaining mages followed behind him, the light of the defensive magic flickered chaotically.
Even though Strange was an apprentice mage, the mages behind him were the stalwarts of Kamar-Taj. As soon as the two monsters collided, the mages brandished their bands and drove them apart.
On the other side, Spider-Man used his web to grab Riot's leg, Phantom in his head shouted: "Riot is the most powerful of the original symbionts, he cannot be directly confronted!"
Before she could finish speaking, Spider-Man squatted slightly, grabbing the web and pulling back, the massive grey beast fell to the ground with a noise, Spider-Man retreated a few steps and then pulled again, dragging Riot several meters away.
The grey beast turned around, was about to power up and flip over, Spider-Man took a deep breath, wrapped the web around his wrist a few times, swung his arm and threw, Riot flew out like a meteor hammer.
At this time, it was deep into the night, this place was also the commercial district of Greenwich Village, there was nobody, there was no worry about injuring the spectators, Spider-Man operating at full capacity swung Riot up into the air, and like a cowboy throwing a lasso, threw him out.
Phantom immediately said: "Starting from today, I will be a strength-based symbiote, let's go, beat them up!"
Purple Spider-Man's figure became elusive, in a blink, appeared again behind Riot, delivering a punch to the back of his head, Riot, who had just gotten up from the ground, flew out again.
When a hero of immense strength gains extreme speed, he becomes virtually invincible, moreover, what Phantom provided Spider-Man was not only speed, she could also become invisible, teleport, and even more importantly, fly infinitely.
Originally, they were all ground forces, with you throwing a punch and me reciprocating, even if you were blown away, you could take the opportunity to adjust your combat posture when the opponent approached.
But the situation now was, Spider-Man punched Riot and sent him flying, then in an instant was back again with another punch, then another blink, another punch, no cooldown periods, uppercuts following uppercuts, if he's hit up into the air, in-flight they could continue the barrage infinitely, Riot became a punching bag.
Spider-Man was having a great time beating Riot, the Spider-Sense and Phantom's voice at the same time: "Look out!!!"
Riot roared, a powerful energy burst out from his body, Phantom took Peter and teleported, landing on the rooftop of a nearby building.
Without any external forces, Riot who could not fly should have fallen down to the ground, but a layer of black curtains caught him, immediately after, layers upon layers of darkness spread out from his back, along with the airflow it permeated into a pitch-black hole.
The voice of Phantom became serious: "Before he set off, Nal gave him the power of chaos that originated from the birth of the Seventh Universe, that is Nal's most powerful force, the root of his immortality…"
"We need to retreat, this kind of power is not something that can be coped with brute force, we should first..."
Just then, Spider-Man keenly felt a subtle tremor in the ground, followed by the roaring sound of a motorcycle from the distant horizon, at the ignition of the endless flames, a rough growl echoed:
"You…are guilty!"
