Chapter 703

"Whoosh—"

A sound of breaking air rang out, and Cletus Kasady and Francis Barrison appeared out of thin air in an abandoned church bell tower.

Before they could react to what was happening, they heard two "whoosh" sounds, and two equally bewildered men appeared opposite them.

These two men were the targets of their revenge: Eddie Brock and Patrick Mulligan.

"Too fast, really too fast..."

Whether it was saving someone or taking revenge, the speed was too fast. There was no foreshadowing or transition; it was an instant scene change. This feeling was as if they couldn't wait to finish everything in one day.

Or rather, it felt like they didn't have a tomorrow.

"Cletus Kasady? You, shouldn't you be dead already?"

Eddie Brock looked at Cletus Kasady in disbelief, and Patrick Mulligan beside him didn't even think about it and drew his gun directly.

"Dead?"

"The one who is going to die is you!"

Cletus Kasady shouted and rushed directly toward Eddie Brock.

At the same time, Carnage, who sensed Venom in his body, also simply crawled out.

"Whoa!"

Eddie Brock and Venom were shocked to see the transformed Cletus Kasady, and then, without time to think, they transformed and fought with Cletus Kasady.

"Now it's our turn."

Francis Barrison stared hatefully at Patrick Mulligan, who was stunned by Carnage and Venom, and opened her mouth to unleash a violent, ear-piercing sonic wave.

"Ahhhhhhh—"

The ear-piercing sonic wave made Patrick Mulligan hurriedly cover his ears. Although painful, he didn't seem to be in any major trouble.

But Carnage and Venom, who were caught in the crossfire, were not so lucky. The two symbiotes in the middle of a fierce fight were directly shaken by the sonic wave, screaming repeatedly, covering their ears in pain, and staggering.

Venom reacted quickly and dived back into Eddie Brock's body with a "whoosh."

Carnage's resistance seemed to be stronger than Venom's. Although it was also in pain, it could still hold on.

"Shut up!"

"Otherwise I'll kill you!"

Carnage shouted fiercely at Francis Barrison, who had transformed into Shriek.

Shriek stopped subconsciously, as if she didn't expect him to scold her.

This "he" refers to Cletus Kasady, not Carnage.

In Shriek's perception, Carnage was an ability or power belonging to Cletus Kasady.

Carnage was Cletus Kasady, and Cletus Kasady was Carnage.

"Hey, be polite. She is my beloved." Cletus Kasady revealed half of his face and shouted at Carnage with dissatisfaction.

Carnage ignored him completely. If Shriek dared to hold it back again, it wouldn't care if she was Cletus Kasady's beloved—it would kill her just the same!

Don't forget, it is Carnage.

If it hesitated and worried about everything while killing someone, would it still be Carnage?

Women only affect its speed of killing!

In an instant, Carnage and Venom were fighting each other again.

In the movie, in order to force Venom to appear, Carnage specifically had Shriek capture Anne Weying. Although Anne Weying had already broken up with Eddie Brock at this time, there was no way around it—who else could he care about but Anne Weying?

Because of Anne Weying, Venom was somewhat hindered in the fight. Not only was it distracted, but it also missed several good opportunities to save her and suffered several injuries it shouldn't have.

Now that there was no intervention from Anne Weying, Venom... was still getting beaten!

There was no way around it; if you can't beat them, you can't beat them. Who set the rule that the symbiote family gets stronger with each generation? Venom's offspring are stronger than the last, all capable of surpassing their predecessors!

At first, Venom could still hold its own, but soon it was beaten like a dog by Carnage using stronger attack methods, greater strength, and faster speed!

This is not an intentional insult; it is simply the truth. Carnage has multiple tentacles similar to a spider, and the weapons it can change into are comparable to Riot.

More importantly, Carnage is stronger than Venom in both reaction speed and control speed.

When Carnage hits Venom, Venom can only take it.

When Venom hits Carnage, before it can land a blow, Carnage has already calculated Venom's attack point and split that part of its body away.

One can cause real damage, while the other often misses—the result is self-evident.

Just saying Venom was beaten like a dog, and not saying it was beaten like a dead dog, is already quite subtle!

"Bang!"

Venom was thrown out by Carnage, slammed heavily against the wall, and then slid down.

"I'm going to kill you, father!"

Carnage walked toward Venom while speaking. Venom struggled to get up, but had no strength at all. After trying a few times, it finally gave up staggeringly.

"Don't dream."

Venom retorted stubbornly, then its eyes lit up, and it suddenly raised its hand, releasing biological fluid toward the top of its head.

"Bang!"

An impact sound rang out.

Carnage looked up and saw a huge bronze bell falling from the sky. Caught off guard, Carnage was directly trapped inside the bronze bell.

"Boom!"

The fall from a high altitude made the bronze bell emit a deep sound. Carnage inside the bell immediately let out a shrill scream, and then struggled and hit the bell, trying to leave.

As a result, the more it hit, the louder the bell rang; the louder the bell rang, the more painful it was for Carnage!

"This is tactics, you idiot!" Venom, the tactical master, scolded triumphantly.

On the messy ground, a tiny drop of blood seemed to come alive, crawling from beside the bronze bell toward Shriek and Patrick Mulligan, who were not far away, with the man on the bottom and the woman on top.

Don't misunderstand; it was Shriek pinning Patrick Mulligan to the ground and whipping him crazily.

"No!"

Hearing the loud sound of the bronze bell, Shriek stopped her swinging fists and, without thinking, unleashed a sonic wave directly at the bronze bell, trying to knock it away to save Cletus Kasady.

But she forgot one thing: using a sonic wave to hit a bronze bell? Is this trying to save someone, or trying to kill someone...

"Bang!"

The huge bronze bell flew out at an angle and rolled far away.

Rolling out with it was Cletus Kasady, who was already on the verge of death.

"Darling, are you okay?" Shriek hurriedly hugged Cletus Kasady.

Cletus Kasady smiled and grinned, reaching out to stroke her cheek, but unfortunately, his hand fell powerlessly as soon as it was raised.

"No!!!"

Shriek, holding Cletus Kasady, let out a sorrowful howl to the sky. The ear-piercing high-frequency sonic wave made the surrounding walls and ground tremble constantly.

Venom dived back into Eddie Brock's body, while Eddie Brock lay on the ground, holding his ears with both hands, curled up tightly into a ball.

"Snap!"

The crisp sound of a finger snap seemed to make all the sounds in the world disappear. Su Quan stood in front of Shriek, holding a mass of red fluid.

"I, I killed him, I killed the person I love most." Looking up at Su Quan, Shriek murmured sorrowfully.

"It killed him!"

Su Quan said calmly, holding up the red fluid in his palm.

This red fluid was none other than Carnage!
