Undercover Agent

"Blood God!"

When Eddie saw Wang Bert, he froze for a moment, then excitedly scrambled to his feet and stood before him. The big shot was here. Today was the day he would finally be free of Venom.

Eddie had wanted to get rid of Venom for a long time, but he had never dared tell anyone about it. Venom could kill him at any time. Captain America and Iron Man were powerful, but they probably would not be able to stop Venom in time.

Now things were different. The Blood God was here. With the Blood God’s abilities, Venom was nothing. Wasn’t it hiding inside his body and trembling in fear right now? "Blood God? You’re the Blood God!"

Wei Ying cried out in shock. Who did most people on Earth want to meet most? Of course, Earth’s guardian, the Star Destroyer Level Expert, the Blood God! Unfortunately, the Blood God was elusive, and very few people had ever seen him.

Wei Ying had never expected Mr. Wang to be the Blood God. She deeply regretted not making the first move during their last date. Being able to sleep with the Blood God once would give her bragging material for the rest of her life.

Wang Bert smiled. "That’s right, I’m the Blood God. Don’t tell anyone. This is top-secret."

"Don’t worry, I absolutely won’t tell anyone."

Wei Ying nodded repeatedly in excitement. No wonder no newspapers or magazines dared report on Mr. Wang. He was the Blood God, standing above all living beings.

Seeing Wei Ying, Eddie asked incredulously, "Annie, why are you here?"

Wei Ying turned and asked, "I was about to ask you the same thing. Why are you here?"

Wang Bert smiled. "Venom, change shape and let her see you."

"Change shape?"

Eddie froze. Then Venom emerged of its own accord. Wei Ying was so startled that she even dropped her handbag onto the floor.

Venom looked savage, but its expression was extraordinarily ingratiating. It lowered its head and respectfully said to Wang Bert, "Blood God."

"Very good. You can go back now."

Wang Bert said. Venom obediently retreated, incredibly well-behaved. The reason was simple: the other party could kill it hundreds or thousands of times with a single finger.

Wei Ying clutched her chest and asked in shock, "Eddie, what is going on with you? Wait, was that thing in the model just now him?"

"Eddie is a hero who saved the world."

Wang Bert smiled. "What he fused with is a primitive Symbiote, different from those previous test subjects."

"I only did what every Earthling should do."

Hearing the Blood God praise him, Eddie beamed. Ignoring Wei Ying, he secretly winked at Wang Bert.

Wang Bert curiously asked, "Do you have an eye twitch?"

Eddie was speechless. Wang Bert smiled and said, "Don’t worry, I know what you mean. You want to get rid of Venom, right? Venom, you are not allowed to kill Eddie."

Venom’s head emerged from Eddie’s neck as it furiously shouted, "Eddie, you tricked me!"

"I didn’t trick you. This is your own problem. You eat people."

Wang Bert’s presence filled Eddie with courage. He shouted, "Think about it yourself. What kind of Super Hero eats people?"

"Eddie!"

Venom was so furious it wanted to swallow Eddie whole, but with Wang Bert here, it did not dare. It said aggrievedly, "Symbiotes are supposed to eat people. What’s wrong with that?"

"You think eating people is justified?"

Eddie snorted and begged Wang Bert, "Blood God, please peel this thing out of my body. I don’t want to stay with it for another second."

Wang Bert asked with an amused smile, "Are you sure?"

"Of course I’m sure. You have no idea. When it eats people, I can feel it too. That sensation…"

Eddie looked like he was about to vomit. Not only him—Wei Ying also looked disgusted. She said, "Eddie, don’t describe it anymore. It’s disgusting."

Wang Bert raised his hand, and a stack of reports appeared out of thin air. He said, "This is your medical report. You’ve lost one-third of your liver, half your lungs, and your stomach is completely gone…"

"What? That’s impossible!"

Eddie hurriedly snatched the report and grew more shocked the further he read. He shouted, "How could this happen? How could this happen?"

Wang Bert said, "Simply put, Eddie, you’ve already taken Venom’s shape."

"Hahaha, Eddie, you want to get rid of me? Dream on. I’ve completely transformed you. The moment I leave your body, you’ll die."

Venom laughed smugly. "Eddie, I told you not to trick me, or you would definitely regret it. We’ll take our time playing, you loser."

"No, how could this happen?"

The report slipped weakly from Eddie’s hand. He grabbed his head, his face full of anguish.

Wei Ying could not bear to watch and pleaded with Wang Bert, "Mr. Wang, can you help Eddie?"

"You’ve taken Venom’s shape, and Venom has taken yours."

Wang Bert said, "Venom will not kill you, because the two of you have completely fused into one. As far as I know, Symbiotes only transform hosts they truly recognize."

Eddie gritted his teeth and shouted, "Truly recognize? So am I supposed to thank it?"

"No need to thank me. I must have been blind to think you were the most suitable host for me."

Venom said bitterly, "Don’t worry, I won’t kill you. We’ll be entangled for the rest of our lives. We’ll take our time playing."

"Wow, why does this sound like a pair of bitter lovers?"

Wang Bert smiled and said, "Eddie, Venom has already become a part of you. The sooner you accept it, the easier your life will be."

Eddie shouted, "How am I supposed to accept it? Being ugly would be one thing, but it eats people."

Venom sneered. "I like eating people. So what? Not only will I eat people in the future, I’ll gorge myself on them."

Wei Ying felt a little afraid and a little speechless. This really was like a married couple arguing.

"It eats people for nutrition. I can provide it with something more nutritious."

Wang Bert drew a Magic Array and branded it onto Venom’s head. "Venom, I’ve placed a Magic Array on you. If you dare eat people again, I’ll destroy you immediately."

"I won’t. I absolutely won’t dare eat people again. Actually, I can eat animals too, but they have to be alive. Dead food is useless to me."

Venom said with complete submission. Eddie cursed, "Eating live animals is just as disgusting."

Venom sneered. "Don’t worry. From now on, we’ll be disgusting together."

"Enough of that."

Wang Bert smiled. "Venom, Eddie, I want you two to help me with something."

Venom said obsequiously, "Blood God, just give the order."

Eddie frowned and asked, "Help with something? Blood God, aren’t you planning to recruit us into the Avengers?"

"I will recruit you into the Avengers, but I won’t make it public."

Wang Bert shook his head. "I want you to become an undercover Super Hero."

Eddie was stunned. "An undercover Super Hero?"

"That’s right, an undercover Super Hero."

Wang Bert nodded. "Stay in San Francisco. As long as you don’t eat people, you can do whatever you want. Every month, I’ll pay you according to Super Hero rates, and there will be bonuses during holidays and festivals.

"You only need to do one thing: wait for Knull, the God of Symbiotes, to contact you."

"The God of Symbiotes?"

Eddie and Venom both cried out. Venom said, "Blood God, how could I possibly dare deal with the God of Symbiotes? Besides, the God of Symbiotes may already know I betrayed him."

"With me here, what are you afraid of? Besides, he doesn’t know about your betrayal. I checked Riot’s remnant soul. It never reported it."

Wang Bert snorted. "The God of Symbiotes will harm Earth. I need an undercover agent. Eddie, are you willing?"

Eddie looked at Wang Bert and asked, "What happens if I say no?"

"Nothing. I’m one of the good guys. I won’t force you."

Wang Bert smiled. "If you won’t do it, Annie will."

"Me? An undercover agent?"

Wei Ying pointed at herself in astonishment. "Mr. Wang, I never said I wanted to be an undercover agent, and I can’t be one."

"Anne Weying, you have never been a rule-following woman."

Wang Bert lightly traced Wei Ying’s cheek with his finger and smiled. "Do you really not want to? Battle, passion, power, life and death!"

"This…"

Wei Ying’s breathing grew a little rapid. She truly was not a rule-following woman, otherwise she would not have become a Female Prosecutor.

"No, Annie can’t take that risk."

Eddie glared at Wang Bert angrily. This guy was threatening him, yet he had the nerve to call himself one of the good guys.

Also, he had traced Annie’s face with his finger. Wait, did this guy have something going on with Annie?

Hearing that, Wei Ying angrily said to Eddie, "Why can’t I? Do you think I’m inferior to you? Eddie, after all this time, you’re still as arrogant as ever."

Eddie wanted to reveal the truth, but remembering Wang Bert’s identity, he gritted his teeth and said, "Blood God, I’m willing to be your undercover agent. But I want to know, when will Knull contact me?"

"I don’t know either."

Wang Bert shook his head, then added, "Venom is the only Symbiote on Earth left with self-awareness. If Knull intends to harm Earth, he will definitely contact Venom."

Although Wang Bert had set up a Magic Array to seal Knull, he still felt that something was off about Knull. That was why he was placing a chess piece in advance. Only by preparing could he avoid trouble.

Eddie asked with an ugly expression, "So this could be a lifelong mission?"

"Wouldn’t that be even better? Getting paid for nothing without having to work. How many people dream of that?"

Wang Bert smiled. "When I pay, I’m not stingy. You’ll earn at least a million a year."

"Over a million? And I don’t even have to work?"

Eddie could not help swallowing. Venom hurriedly said, "Rest assured, Blood God. We will definitely be good undercover agents."

Over a million a year—surely that did not make him a loser anymore? Wei Ying finally came back to her senses and cautiously asked, "Mr. Wang, I shouldn’t be qualified to hear these secrets, should I?"

"You are qualified. I will recruit you into the Avengers and make you a new Super Hero."

Wang Bert said, "Your superpower will be the Unconscious Symbiote that S.W.O.R.D. has just developed."

"A Super Hero?"

Wei Ying’s eyes lit up at first, then she hesitated. "Mr. Wang, I really want to be a Super Hero, but isn’t that Symbiote too ugly?"

Venom glared at Wei Ying, while Eddie nodded repeatedly. It was not merely too ugly—it was hideous. Maybe the reason the Blood God would not let him join the Avengers was because of that.

The Avengers needed to care about their image too.

"If you think it’s ugly, just change it. You can even design its appearance yourself."

Wang Bert said, "Wei Ying, from now on, you’ll be Eddie’s contact. Eddie, if anything comes up, go to her."

"Annie is my contact?"

Eddie’s eyes lit up. Wouldn’t that give him a chance to get back together with her? "I’ve given you the opportunity. Whether you can seize it depends on your own ability, but keep a low profile."

Wang Bert’s voice rang inside Eddie’s mind. "Knull’s matter should not drag on for too long. Once I deal with him, I’ll restore your Super Hero status."

"Okay."

Eddie nodded repeatedly, the resentment in his heart fading by more than half. Although the Blood God was using him, he was showing plenty of sincerity.

In comparison, Wei Ying was somewhat disgusted. "I have to be responsible for this guy? Mr. Wang, this guy is troublesome, arrogant, and annoying."

"After so many lessons, I believe he will change."

Wang Bert said no more and called Coulson over to handle the aftermath.

Then Wang Bert Teleported back to his manor. After thinking for a moment, he used the Reality Stone to contact Loki, whom he had not contacted in a long time. "Queen Loki, you seem to be doing pretty well lately."

"Not bad. At the very least, the Frost Kingdom now looks like a country."

Loki replied coldly, "Unlike before, when it was just a primitive tribe."

Wang Bert asked, "Do you still want to become the ruler of Asgard?"

"Why wouldn’t I? I was born to be the Queen of Asgard."

Loki snorted. "Besides, that idiot cannot hold up Asgard at all. He has watched me develop the Frost Kingdom without sending a single soldier."

Speaking of this, Loki was utterly speechless. She had long prepared for Asgard to attack, yet she had not seen even one Asgardian soldier.

"Queen?"

Wang Bert’s eyes flashed. It seemed Loki had completely become a woman. Unfortunately, Odin did not agree with his plan. Otherwise, she and Thor would have been a match made in heaven.

"You sound rather pleased."

Wang Bert smiled. "You and Thor can settle your own affairs. Help me pass a message to Thanos."

Loki asked, "What message?"

Wang Bert said, "Two Iron Men, two Dr. Banners, two Steves, and one extremely fat Thor suddenly appeared on Earth."

"Two Iron Men, two… wait, an extremely fat Thor? What does he look like? Do you have a photo?"

Loki asked gossipyly. Wang Bert sent over a photo, and Loki burst into laughter. Thor had actually become an unbelievably greasy fat slob?

Loki curiously asked, "Where did they come from?"

"They came from Future Time-Space."

Wang Bert gave a brief explanation, then said, "By the way, you were strangled to death right at the beginning."

"Thanos actually did it?"

Loki was greatly shocked—shocked that Thanos had truly succeeded, and also shocked that Future Tony and the others had returned to the past. She asked, "Blood God, what do you want to do by informing Thanos?"

"I want to lure him to Future Time-Space, then take him out."

Wang Bert said frankly. In Future Time-Space, Thanos was dead. In other words, the Thanos of that time-space had no connection to the Goddess of Death. Therefore, if he lured Thanos there, he might be able to truly kill him.

At the same time, this was also a test—a test of whether the Goddess of Death stood behind Thanos.

Wang Bert had not been strong enough before, so he had played it safe. But now, he could be a little bolder.

Neither Wang Bert nor Thanos was passive. As long as they had an opportunity, they would definitely take the other out. Their conflict was irreconcilable.

"I don’t doubt your strength, but why not deal with him directly in this world?"

Loki asked in confusion, "With my help, finding him won’t be difficult."

"Thanos is not as simple as you think."

Wang Bert shook his head. "Just do as I say. If Thanos has any plans, remember to tell me. If we’re lucky, we may be able to settle this completely. Then you can end your life as an undercover agent and marry Thor."
