Chapter 364, Spine Hunter - Massacre
New York City was still quiet at night. In the subway station on the edge of the city, a man who had just gotten off work was hanging his head and dozing off on his seat.
"Ding dong!"
As the elevator prompt sounded, the man opened his eyes instinctively, and stood up slowly and tiredly while holding on to the handrail next to him.
This is basically the process every day, and a man can find it with his eyes closed.
"Huh~ I can finally go back and take a nap, damn bald fat pig, I will resign in a while!" The man walked off the subway while cursing his stupid boss.
He felt like he was going to die suddenly when he worked overtime every day. It was not easy to earn this little money.
Although he has worked hard for several years, he is still living in the suburbs on the edge of New York City. Although the environment and transportation here are much worse than in the city, the rent is cheap and he can save more money. When he has enough money, he will go If you want to run some small business, it's better to be your own boss than to work for those fat pig bosses.
After walking out of the subway station, the man dragged his tired body for more than 20 minutes before he reached the dilapidated house he rented and walked up to the second floor holding on to the railing.
"Finally I can sleep for a while." The man took out the key and opened the door, followed his feeling and walked to the bed and lay down on it.
But just when he lay down on the bed and closed his eyes to rest, he suddenly felt like something was crawling under him.
When he opened his eyes and adjusted to the darkness of the room, he saw a strange blood-red figure standing at the head of his bed.
In an instant, the hair on the man's body stood on end, and all his sleepiness suddenly disappeared.
"Who are you?! Ugh!!!"
Just as the man was screaming, the blood-red figure suddenly stretched out a tentacle and stuffed it into his mouth, blocking all his sounds.
"Shh! Keep your voice down, and don't disturb your neighbors. They have to go to work tomorrow." Slaughter opened his ferocious mouth and said to the man who was about to urinate in fear.
"Bang!"
With a muffled sound, the man was forced to face up on the bed with his tentacles. Such a turn of events frightened the man, but the tentacles in his mouth made him unable to make any sound, so he could only cry weakly. Woohoo.
After firmly holding the man in place, Slaughter slowly stepped forward, stretched out his right hand and turned it into a dark red sharp knife, pressed against the man's back and cut open his skin and flesh.
The severe pain made the man's eyes widen and veins popped out. As the sharp knife went deeper and deeper, the more intense pain made him faint.
"What a fragile human being!"
The comatose man was awakened by the severe pain again. If it weren't for the carnage tentacles blocking his mouth, he would have broken his teeth.
At this time, the man could no longer feel his body. As the blood soaked the sheets, he could only feel that his body was getting colder and colder, and even his consciousness was becoming more and more erratic.
He didn't understand why he suddenly encountered such a monster and why he suffered such pain.
In this way, he gradually died in his sleep, full of confusion and questions. As the man died, the tentacles controlling his body were retracted and returned to Carnage's body.
At this time, Slaughter was holding the spine and putting it into his chest.
After he put the spine into his chest, the strange symbol on his forehead began to flash, and the color became deeper and darker.
In a daze, Shou also saw the situation of his next target emerging before his eyes. This was a relatively fat woman. She was currently sleeping soundly at home, completely unaware that she had been targeted by a terrifying monster. .
Seeing the appearance of this new target, Massacre also jumped out of the window with a big mouth, and then followed the guidance in the dark and rushed in the direction of the new target.
Carnage is now preparing for Gnar's resurgence and arrival.
Now Gnar has not yet escaped from the trap. His consciousness is trapped in the symbiote dragon frozen in the ice, and his body is imprisoned in the Quintal planet by numerous symbiotes.
Quintal is too far away, and he has no way to free his body from the imprisonment of many symbionts. The only feasible way for him at present is to reshape a new body on earth.
This is also the reason why he called for Carnage and made it his slave. He needed Carnage to help him collect a special thing that could help him shape a new body on earth.
This special thing is the source of information left by the symbiote when it possesses the host. It can also be called a special code.
Whenever a symbiote parasitizes in a human body, it leaves this code in the other person's body.
Now Slaughter's task is to collect these codes. When a certain amount is gathered, Gnar can use these codes to condense a new body for himself.
In this way, his weak consciousness can be transferred from the dragon in the ice to a new body, and he can realize recovery and descent.
Because Venom has been on Earth for a relatively long time and was also the first symbiote to come to Earth, most of the codes that Carnage has collected now come from the humans he has stayed at.
Most of these humans were temporarily used by Venom as a transit point. The only ones that Venom really stayed for a long time and were relatively special were the neurotic mercenary, Spider-Man, and now Chen Lin'an.
Slaughter has possessed many humans in the process from its birth to the present. It knows all of this and does not need any special guidance from Gnar.
Every time when hunting for humans where the venom has stayed, if it encounters a person it has possessed before, it will not hesitate to pull out the spine of the other person.
There are only a few cases that have been exposed in the news now, but in fact the massacre has harvested the spines of more than a dozen human beings.
Most of the cases that were exposed were because the victims were in a more conspicuous position at the time, and the massacre was not taken into account at the beginning, so they were solved directly.
Unexpectedly, the news has been spreading, attracting a lot of attention. Slaughter is also a bit worried about this. It does not want to attract too much attention, lest some special circumstances arise and disrupt its plan to hunt for codes.
Therefore, it is much more careful now than before. Just like today, he waited until the man returned home from the subway station before starting to attack, instead of choosing to do it directly at the subway station.
