Chapter 56 The Symbiote 'Water Factor' and 'Extreme Pain'
Chapter 56 The Symbiote 'Water Factor' and 'Extreme Pain'
Riot was taken aback for a moment, then realized what Toby was trying to do.
To be honest, as the king of the symbiote race, it doesn't actually want to devour its own people to improve itself unless absolutely necessary.
But now, even it has to bow its head under someone else's roof.
"I can do it, but you have to understand that a typical host simply cannot accommodate multiple symbiotes parasitizing at the same time. It will indeed make us stronger, but it will also increase the pressure on you..."
Toby said nonchalantly, "Do I look like a typical host to you?"
Most people couldn't handle the number of symbiotes, but Toby, being a spider demon, could manage just a few!
The rioters fell silent upon hearing this.
That seems to be true...
This human host's physique is comparable to the cosmic behemoth it once parasitized!
What's it worrying about for no reason...?
So, without further ado, the rioter cast an apologetic glance at the three symbiotes, then opened its massive maw and bit into one of the isolation tubes.
After taking up residence in Toby's body, the riots had fully recovered and even surpassed their peak. The mere quarantine tube was easily chewed up in its mouth like a wafer.
This also includes symbionts in the isolation tube.
The first symbiote to be consumed by Riot was a yellow symbiote called "Water Factor" (not "Howl"). After being consumed by Riot, in addition to enhancing Toby's base stats, it also gave Toby a brand new ability, just like Riot.
This ability, just like its name "Water Factor," grants Toby the ability to survive and fight freely in water.
This ability may not sound powerful, but it is actually very useful.
Because as long as you are human, no matter how strong you are, even if you are as strong as Thor or Hulk, your combat power in the water will be reduced by at least 50%.
However, the water factor allows you to maintain your combat power in water without any reduction, and if the enemy is unable to move in water, it is equivalent to your strength being directly increased by 50%!
Toby was quite satisfied with this, as water combat was one of his weaknesses, and this improved his skills!
This also made Toby even more eager to see what abilities the other two symbiotes would grant him!
Amidst the terrified screams of the remaining two symbiotes, Riot set its sights on the purple symbiote and mercilessly devoured it once more!
Chew, chew, chew—
Ding—Successfully devoured!
This symbiote is called "Extreme Pain," and in addition to increasing Toby's base stats, it also grants Toby a special ability.
That is... the Speed Force!
Okay, just kidding, it's not true.
But it's pretty much the same. The ability is to release bio-lightning to stimulate the activity of the host's body cells, thereby giving the host the ability to move at supersonic speed!
This thing is much more practical than the abilities of the water factor, and it can provide Toby with extremely high assistance in battle no matter what environment he is in!
After all, a bald great man once said, "Of all martial arts techniques, none are invincible except for speed!"
In the end, all Toby had left was the black venom isolation tube.
Riot let out a burp, glanced at the timid Venom, hesitated for a moment, and shook his head, saying, "Venom won't do, I can't devour it..."
Upon hearing this, Toby's eyes narrowed, and he said calmly, "Give me a reason."
Riot looked at the trembling Venom with a complex expression and slowly explained:
"Because it was the first symbiote born amidst flames and the sound of hammering, it was this bastard who gave our symbiote race the weakness of being afraid of high-frequency sound waves and flames, but it is also because of this guy that the symbiote race exists today..."
"Most importantly, its birth is related to the forbidden existence of the symbiote race. It carries His curse, and I don't want to transfer that curse to us..."
Upon hearing this, Toby seemed to understand something and said thoughtfully, "A curse? You mean Nar?"
riot:!!!
"Shh! You can't say that name! Otherwise, He will notice!"
The rioters didn't even care about the accommodation agreement Toby had just made with them; they quickly covered Toby's mouth with their own necks.
I was terrified that this guy would utter that taboo name again!
Toby frowned, and a spark of electricity appeared at his fingertips. He touched Riot's neck, causing it to bounce away with a "yelp!"
"As the landlord, I can say whatever I want in my own house. If you, as the tenant, dare to boss me around again, I'll kick you out, understand?"
The rioters shrank back, not daring to say anything more.
Indeed, it seems the wicked are destined to be tormented by the wicked...
However, Toby didn't mention Nar any further.
After all, he was far from being an opponent of Naruto's level, and he didn't want to get himself into that kind of trouble.
This is why Venom escaped unscathed and was not consumed by the riots or become part of Toby's power.
In addition, apart from its unique characteristics, Venom's actual abilities are not particularly strong, and it doesn't have any special abilities, so Toby wasn't too disappointed about not being able to consume Venom.
He now possesses the combined power of three symbiotes; one more Venom wouldn't make a difference, and one less Venom wouldn't make a difference either.
While he was merging with Riot and letting Riot devour the other two symbiotes, other people arrived near the spaceship.
Toby's keen hearing had also caught the sound of the vehicle engines in advance. He leaned closer to the spaceship window and saw several black jeeps with the words "Life Foundation" printed on them approaching.
Oh, they're not police officers.
What else is there to say? Just kill them...
Toby's right arm transformed once again into a meter-long blade, which he thrust forward, instantly extending to pierce through the spaceship's cabin wall and into a jeep that had just come to a stop.
Before the people in the jeep could even understand what was happening, Toby inside the spaceship began to slash horizontally with his arm!
Zzzzzzz——————
With a sharp scraping sound, Toby's outstretched arm tore a large gash through the spaceship's bulkhead, while the sharp blades outside also slashed through the fuel tanks of several Life Foundation jeeps, killing everyone inside before they even had a chance to get out of the vehicles!
Rumble—
Toby sheathed his blade and, looking through the slit he had made, saw a sea of fire outside. He nodded in satisfaction.
Choosing Riot was definitely the right decision; this weapon form makes me much stronger in area-of-effect attacks than before.
He used to have to clear out the minions one by one, but now he can clear out a whole bunch at once!
Seeing the red and blue police lights flashing in the distance, Toby didn't plan to stay any longer. He easily pried open the hole that had just been cut in the spaceship and crawled out.
Then, with purple lightning crackling around his legs, he bent his knees, gathered his strength, and leaped away, instantly transforming into a bolt of lightning and disappearing into the sky.
