Marvel: I'm a Symbiote



[Whatever…] Alex said in her head as he retreated into her body after devouring the leader abomination, leaving only the four appendages that were reminiscent of Doc Ock's mechanical arms extending out of her back.

He also got some rudimentary control over blood after devouring that abomination, but it wasn't enough to quantify. At least not yet.

Although the leader was killed, the abominations surrounding Laura didn't seem to care as they kept attacking her. Intent on killing and eating her.

Laura was also far from done as the leader was no more than a tiny interlude for her. Her body was still filled with a massive amount of lightning that she desperately wanted to rain down upon all the abominations.

And that's exactly what she did. As she swung her claw and cut through an abomination, a dense ball of lightning was generated in front of her claws. After being satisfied with its size, she released it a bit further from her body into a group of abominations that were approaching her. Just as the ball hit one of the abominations, it exploded and took down tens of abominations.

This was followed by both Laura's claws and Alex's appendages. They kept on slicing through the abominations while also releasing grenades of lightning that would kill many abominations wherever they hit.

The next two hours went by in a flash and neither Laura nor Alex was done. But neither were the abominations. They just kept coming. Even though both of them were killing the abominations at an unholy rate, a million abominations were far from a joke.

'When will those guys be making a move…' Although Alex was enjoying slaughtering the abominations, his attention was on the four leader class abominations that were still observing Laura. He'd known about their presence ever since the fight against the first leader and was aware that they would be making their move sooner or later.

This is why he was saving Laura's main ability for those four. They would be able to take care of at most two of them at once. If all four joined the fray, it would be problematic. Especially with their ability to interfere with Laura's healing factor.

Another hour passed by and the horde wasn't thinning up at all, if anything, more and more abominations kept coming at Laura. But the good thing was that Laura was getting some very good combat practice. Her kills were getting more and more refined and efficient. She started getting more results with lesser movements and also leveraging her speed in a better manner. Even the coordination between her and Alex was seamless by now.

With these refined actions, the speed of taking down the abominations kept increasing. Since the leaders still hadn't attacked, they were probably waiting for Laura to tire herself out before they made a move.

That's why, by now, Alex had Laura feign some tiredness. She was in peak condition and would be that way for days as long as Alex kept her rejuvenated. He was going to bait the leaders to approach them soon.

By the time Laura killed almost two hundred thousand abominations, she seemed to have given the leaders an opportunity. The four of them descended upon her and surrounded her from four directions.

"So you finally showed yourself…" Laura's masked face was dripping with copious amounts of blood while the ponytail that was extending out of the back of her mask was dyed red from its original brunette.

There was no response and the four of them instantly tensed and simultaneously looked up at the sky where the dark clouds had been gathered.

At that moment, a huge bolt of lightning descended on Laura, just like when she'd just come out of the bunker. It had already been five hours and the cooldown had been reset.

The four leaders just calmly watched Laura powering up as they also got ready to attack her at a moment's notice.

Just as the lightning dimmed down, Laura's glowing figure was seen lunging at one of the leaders. She was going to take them down one by one. She pointed both her claws at the leader and launched two lightning grenades at the leader while approaching it. Just as the lightning exploded at the leader, Laura also entered the explosion and sliced the leader. Sadly, her attack failed and her claws were blocked by an axe that the attacked leader was holding.

Its body was charred and smoking but that's the most that the lightning could do to it. Its body was back to new within a second.

At the same time, the other three leaders reached Laura and attacked her with different cold weapons that were formed of blood. Along with the axe, there was the spear, the mace, and the daggers. All four of them used vastly different cold weapons to attack Laura.

Just as she pulled away from the axe leader, the spear leader stabbed her stomach which she dodged with the help of the tentacles extending out of her back.

Just as she dodged the spear, she had to block the mace with her claws as it was about to hit her head. The appendages extending from her back were supporting her in any way that they could, but Alex's symbiote body wasn't very effective against those blood weapons. They were a match for Laura's Vibranium-Adamantium alloy claws. It was natural that Alex wasn't able to take care of them without some other means.

At this point, Laura was getting overwhelmed by the four leaders while doing her best to dodge the attacks. Their ability to hamper her healing factor was causing Laura's efficiency in fighting them to go down since she was actively making an effort to defend. In other cases, she would just go for a suicidal attack and heal up later. But this wasn't possible right now.

Soon, Laura's disadvantages started showing. The weapons started piercing through Alex's protective armor for Laura and left minor injuries on her body that were taking time to heal.

"Fuck!" She screamed as she swung her claw at the leader who'd just left a nasty gash on her leg. Her frustration was increasing with time as the abominations' coordinated assault was proving a bit much for her to handle.

'Do I have to use it…' She inwardly thought.

'Yep…' She could feel Alex's thoughts and knew that this was the only option.

This wasn't done through the telepathy that Alex usually uses to communicate. This was an instinctive communication that had become an implicit process for Laura and Alex through the fight.

They were able to communicate with each other implicitly without having to put their thoughts into words. They could just understand each other's intentions.

'Do it!' She braced herself. She knew that this was going to leave her weakened for some time, but this was a risk that she was willing to take. Her apprehension came due to her past experience with berserk abilities.

Just as Laura's intent was understood by Alex, she felt like her blood was boiling and was rushing through her veins at an unholy speed.

‹Blood Berserker›:: When the symbiote forms a Level 4 bond with its host, it can supercharge the blood that's flowing through the veins of the host and increase the physical stats of the host. But there is a period of weakness after the merger process where the stats are halved from the base stage. Augmentation— 2x at Lvl 4, 3x at Lvl 5. Cooldown: 24 Hrs at Lvl 4, 18 Hrs at Lvl 5.

Laura released a war cry as she felt an unprecedented heat go through her body. And this was different from the heat that was generated during the time Alex infused her blood with EP and made her horny. This heat was solely making her angry. Angry to the point that her blood was boiling and she just wanted to release all of that anger.

Just as that boiling blood rushed to her muscles, her organs, her brain, that part of her body got overclocked. Within a second, her stats increased by another three times. This was a multiplier that was applied on top of the 7 times multiplier of the ‹Host Enhancement› ability. Her current stats were 21 times her base physical stats.

Laura, feeling like a volcano that was about to burst, lunged at one of the leader abominations with an unholy speed and cut it into tens of pieces before anyone could react. Though by the time the other abominations reacted and moved toward her, Alex had already devoured their comrade's unresisting form.

The abominations weren't going to get taken by surprise again and they were now even more alert. But the raw increase in her power was enough to easily overwhelm the abominations. In each clash against their weapons, Laura pushed them back and left some damage. She'd turned the tables with this one berserk ability.

Another minute later, the spear-wielding leader followed the footsteps of their mace-wielding comrade and was devoured by Alex. Leaving only the dagger and the axe-wielding leaders. Pushing her advantage, Laura made quick work of the other two leaders too. Alex promptly devoured them and he finally had enough samples of the ability to quantify the powers.

But he wasn't planning on caring about it for now. Right now, his focus was on Laura who'd changed her targets from the leaders to the normal abominations.
