Chapter 182. The Explanation of Venom
On the beach, the moment Venom made its sound, Eddie gasped and instinctively threw a punch.
With a soft "smack".
Venom was instantly knocked down and sent flying, leaving only a black thread connecting it to Eddie's hand.
Eddie flailed his arms in terror: "What the hell is this thing? I can't shake it off!"
Ji Yuan crossed his arms behind his head, watching the scene with great interest. "Eddie, don't get so agitated. Why don't you talk things out calmly? Maybe what you saw in your dream was real?"
"What?" Eddie immediately stopped swinging his arms and looked at Venom, who was grinning with his big teeth on the other side.
After thinking for a moment, he pulled it over. Indeed, upon closer inspection, he suddenly felt that the dark monster seemed somewhat familiar.
"Who are you?" Eddie asked, looking at the venom that was connected to his arm.
"Oh, Eddie, you're really making me sad. My heart is breaking. We used to be best friends. You're such a heartless man."
Venom flicked its scarlet tongue, its tone pitiful, much like a young wife who had been abandoned, but its expression clearly showed schadenfreude.
"Who exactly are you?" Eddie was baffled. The dark monster in front of him seemed more and more familiar and more and more endearing the more he looked at it. It was simply bizarre.
"I've told you before, I'm an old friend of yours, but there are some things you can't know right now, you can't handle it," Venom said with a grin.
"—" Eddie was speechless. "Then tell me what your name is. I can't exactly call you Muddy."
"Venom, my name is Venom." Venom's voice became somewhat melancholy. He had said this many times before, but this time, it was the most hopeful time.
"Venom, that name suits you. Your mouth is venomous, and it's a puddle of liquid." Eddie didn't care what Venom might be hiding in his mouth. Since Ji Yuan hadn't explained, he didn't need to find out. He just trusted Ji Yuan.
"Heh, this feels so familiar. Nostalgia, all I feel is nostalgia." Venom didn't care about Eddie's sarcasm; instead, he squinted his eyes comfortably.
After a brief period of calm.
Venom started yelling.
"Eddie, grill me some skewers, some beer, and bring me some fruit."
"No, buddy, who do you think you are? Don't think that just because I like you, you can order me around." Eddie glanced at Venom, completely unmoved.
"That's not up to you, hehe." Venom chuckled menacingly.
The next moment, Eddie's face turned extremely terrified, and his body involuntarily stood up, then began to carry out Venom's commands.
Getting fruit, pouring beer, grilling meat—everything went smoothly, more so than Eddie himself had ever done anything so effortlessly.
Venom ate the grilled meat and beer that Eddie offered him with a grin, taking a bite of meat and a sip of beer, looking quite relaxed.
Eddie, on the other hand, was completely bewildered. "Venom, what have you done? Why am I being controlled by you?"
He tried to draw upon the light energy within his body, but discovered that there was an even more powerful force guiding his movements.
"Awesome!" Venom downed the last sip of beer with gusto. "Eddie, this is the power of bonds and friendship. Just enjoy it."
"Wh-what?" Eddie wanted to ask something more, but under the influence of a strange force, he instantly collapsed onto the beach chair and fell into a deep sleep.
Venom glanced gently at Eddie, then turned to Ji Yuan: "Mr. Ultraman, you can ask whatever you want now."
Ji Yuan nodded, snapped his fingers, and the human and symbiotic entity vanished instantly, while the real world seemed to freeze in time.
In the pure white space, Venom scanned his surroundings incredulously. He could perfectly manipulate various cosmic energies and use many cosmic rules, so he could naturally see many different things.
In this white world, there are no rules or definitions of the material universe. It is a world that belongs entirely to the creator, which is almost a power of creation.
Venom looked at Ji Yuan, his tone surprised: "It's incredible that an existence like you could be born in the multiverse. Indeed, the multiverse has infinite possibilities, and this is not just empty talk."
Ji Yuan neither agreed nor disagreed with Venom's statement. He was not born from this universe but came from another world. However, the multiverse has infinite possibilities, otherwise the Light of Hope would not have appeared.
"It seems you've been through a lot."
Venom sighed wistfully, "Yes, from the weakest of the symbiotes to the worm that slaughtered the entire eternal universe, my story can be called a legend."
"An eternal universe? What is that?" Ji Yuan asked.
"This universe is a sick universe. In one cycle, this universe was entirely created by the Eternal Race, which used the souls of all living beings in the universe as its source of growth and almost devoured the entire universe. Later, I wiped out the Eternal Universe and those damned Eternal Race."
Venom responded indifferently, as if this was nothing special.
"I sensed the power of primordial darkness within you. It seems you have seized the power of that symbiotic god. Is this why you can retain your memories and power in reincarnation?" Ji Yuan asked again.
He had some understanding and speculation about the property of retaining memories. Like Kahn, those who could retain memories were essentially connected to the structure of the multiverse.
The primordial dark power of that symbiotic god even transcends the multiverse in essence.
"That's right." Venom gave an affirmative answer. "The reason I was able to retain my memories in so many cycles is because I stole Nar's Root Power and entrusted the past to darkness. This allowed me to accumulate power in the cycle, but unfortunately, I failed every time."
"Just as I expected, it either originates from a multi-faceted basic structure or is some root force that cannot be completely eradicated," Ji Yuan thought to himself.
He then asked, "I want to know who exactly is so keen on restarting the multiverse, and what exactly they want to do? Is it really worth it for such a being to do something like this?"
Venom's expression was somewhat unpleasant. "To be honest, I don't know who it is either."
But according to information gathered by many beings like myself, and speculation, they infinitely restart the multiverse in order to find some kind of power, while drawing on a strange power that life is born from destruction.
I don't know exactly why, but they seem to enjoy it immensely. Whenever the universe reaches a certain point, they repeat this cycle.
I tried to resist, but that power was so overwhelming that I didn't know how to fight back.
