First of all, a tentacle monster was one of the most common abilities among symbiotes.
It was similar to how humans were good at running, throwing, and jumping. They didn't have all of them, but they definitely didn't lack them.
But what abilities the tentacles had were like the difference between a marathon or a sprint, or between throwing a dart or a javelin.
Secondly, Symbiotic Demons had relatively high resistance to fire, ice, lightning, and vibration. There were also Symbiotic Demons that could launch all kinds of special attacks. This was a relatively rare talent.
Luke knew very well why Gold Nugget liked to talk about its clone ability; it was the only talent it had that set it apart from other symbiotes.
In other words, apart from that, this dog head had mediocre abilities.
Even if "good kids" could be considered an advantage for Luke, it wasn't of much use to symbiotes.
It was just like how being an animal protector couldn't be considered an ability; it was just a tendency.
But that was also why Luke regarded it as a reliable partner.
If it were Gold Nugget, he would've locked them up as experiment subjects at the first instant.
After all, he liked bad guys the most, and the symbiote bad guys were the same.
He couldn't let Gold Nugget taste the "experiment course," but he could experiment to his heart's content on these symbiote bad guys.
His research on symbiotes would definitely take a big step forward. Wouldn't that be great?
…
The next morning, Eddie woke up happily in the bathtub. He subconsciously touched his forehead, which still felt a little hot. "Am I sick?"
He suddenly remembered what he had discovered when he snuck into the Life Foundation's research building last night. With a shudder, he searched his body and found his phone.
Looking at the photos taken on the phone, he quickly dialed the number of his ex-girlfriend, Annie Wayne.
Why ex-girlfriend? Because he had heard Annie mention the Life Foundation in passing, and out of curiosity, he had peeked at the confidential files she had brought home.
Annie was a lawyer, and her firm had just accepted a contract from the Life Foundation to defend it.
Itching to get his hands dirty, Eddie used the confidential files in his column and was ready to publish them.
Unfortunately, the boss of the media company he worked for chose to stand on the side of money.
Eddie's boss used this information, as well as the condition of not publishing the article, to obtain a considerable amount of financing from the Life Foundation.
As a cheap shareholder of the media company, the Life Foundation immediately fired a certain columnist who had stabbed the new boss in the back.
Not only that, but because the Life Foundation's lawsuit was still confidential, not many people in the outside world knew about it.
After a casual investigation, they suspected that Eddie's source of information was his girlfriend, Annie, and got the firm to fire her.
Eddie's heart of justice had cleanly destroyed two jobs and successfully turned his girlfriend into his ex-girlfriend. His efficiency was top-notch.
However, this guy had long been a fan of superheroes like Batman. He was very unhappy with this result and chose to continue being stubborn.
After asking his former boss for an explanation, he was kicked out, so he simply posted the article on his own account.
Unfortunately, the Life Foundation involved a lot of stakeholders. They directly used means to suppress the popularity of the article, and it did not attract too much attention.
In the US, it was really difficult to compete with the capitalists.
In real life and movies that were "altered according to actual events," there were indeed cases where people won lawsuits and received large amounts of compensation.
But most of the time, many people would be lucky if they could get a settlement fee out of court.
It was precisely because of their rarity that the successful remake of movies could be widely reported.
For example, a certain group in the United States forcibly occupied a farmer's land and water source, and the farmer fought a lawsuit against it for decades before finally winning.
It made sense; there were definitely very few people who could persist in a lawsuit for decades.
This kind of person had to be particularly stubborn. Otherwise, after decades of lawsuits, their lives would be almost wasted, and money wouldn't be able to buy back wasted time and youth.
The current Eddie was this kind of person who was a little stubborn.
Although he had caused his girlfriend, Annie, to lose her job, he still wanted to prove that he wasn't wrong.
If Annie knew what the Life Foundation had done, she would definitely support what he had done.
Soon, Annie's call got through. Eddie didn't care about anything else and decided on a meeting place.
He knew that Annie would definitely come to see him.
Putting aside their relationship, Annie would definitely be curious about the Life Foundation, which had caused her to lose her job.
Not far away, two people and one dog, who had been secretly observing, were already prepared and unhurriedly followed.
The SUV they were driving had been left nearby by their clones last night, and they were also using alternate identities. Even Gold Nugget had changed into a special dog vest, and its long fur was now short as it turned into a Labrador.
Soon, Eddie and his ex-girlfriend, Annie, met at a specialty barbecue restaurant in the park.
As a symbiote, he wasn't as lucky as Haley. Not only did he feel hot all over, he also had to worry about exposing the Life Foundation. It was as if his heart and body were on fire.
As soon as he sat down, he got straight to the point. "I broke into the Life Foundation. They were secretly capturing homeless people for experiments, not tricking them into doing voluntary experiments."
Annie was surprised. "What? You broke into their research building? Eddie, have you lost your mind? "
She was a lawyer.
Eddie wouldn't have it easy even if he brought down the Life Foundation with the evidence he had obtained through illegal intrusion.
If he was charged with trespassing and destruction of property, he would have to go to jail for a few years.
Messing with capitalists in America wasn't the same as messing with ordinary people. The capitalist's legal team could guarantee that.
Eddie didn't care.
Ever since he accepted Dr. Dora's suggestion last night and snuck into the research building, he had been in huge trouble.
He had no idea how he was going to live in the future.
But his admiration for Batman, as well as his restless body, supported him to at least do this.
If he overturned the Life Foundation, the other party might fall, and he might be able to escape.
If things got out of hand, he might even be able to attract the Bat Squad.
But if the Life Foundation found out that he was the intruder last night, it was unknown how many days Eddie would be able to live.
He didn't answer Annie. Instead, he gave her a general overview of the Life Foundation.
Looking at his expression, Annie put her hand on his forehead suspiciously to confirm that he wasn't normal. "Eddie, you have a fever. You need to go to the hospital first."
How could Eddie be talking nonsense if he didn't have a fever?
From a normal point of view, it was too risky for the Life Foundation to do this. No matter how dangerous the drugs were, they could be tested in underdeveloped areas. No one would care.
Eddie shook his head. "I can't go. They might find me. "
At that point, he suddenly looked at a passing waiter. He subconsciously grabbed the fried pork chop from the tray in the waiter's hand and took a bite.
Annie and the waiter were dumbfounded.
Eddie chewed twice and spat it out. He threw the pork chop back on the plate and shouted at the waiter in disgust, "This is dead. It's not fresh."
Then, his expression changed. "It's so hot. It's so hot. Don't you feel hot?"
As he spoke, he couldn't help but take off his coat.
Without waiting for Annie and the waiter to reply, his gaze drifted to the park pond ten meters away, and he strode over.
Splash!
Eddie jumped to the edge of the pond, which was about half a meter deep, and immersed most of his body in the cool water.
