Chapter 22 - 22

Fifteenth floor, no elevator.

He really knows how to pick a spot!

If the elevator isn't working, we'll have to use the emergency stairs.

Russell went to the emergency stairs next to the elevator, pushed open the fire door, and took a look.

On the surface, there was nothing wrong with the emergency stairs.

Except that they hadn't been cleaned in a long time.

But in a corner of the emergency stairs, Russell saw a small gadget.

A small gadget that clearly shouldn't be in this place.

He's cautious enough!

He's indeed the man who made the hotel pay an extra four gold coins for the rush fee.

The small gadget installed in the corner of the stairs was none other than a miniature surveillance camera, and a wireless one at that.

Although the performance of this miniature surveillance camera wasn't as good as a regular camera, the advantage was that it was miniature enough to be easily overlooked.

After discovering miniature cameras installed in the stairs of the emergency exit, Russell was basically certain that the Punisher was currently in the safe house.

This kind of wirelessly connected miniature surveillance camera doesn't have a long battery life and is only installed when needed.

If the Punisher wasn't in the safe house right now, he wouldn't have needed to install it.

Closing the fire door, he went to check the other emergency exits.

Without any suspense, all the emergency exits had these miniature cameras installed.

Since all the emergency exits had cameras, the next step was simple.

Russell took a deep breath and directly entered his Venom form.

The next second, looking like a black monster, he didn't hesitate and rushed directly into the emergency exit.

It's just the fifteenth floor, right?

Not a big deal!

Russell's extraordinary physique was further enhanced by the symbiote, and he rushed up the stairs like a shadow.

Running up fifteen floors might take some time for an ordinary person.

But for Russell, it was no problem at all.

As soon as he, looking like a black monster, rushed out of the emergency exit, a grenade and a flashbang landed in front of him.

Boom! Boom!

The grenade and flashbang exploded one after another.

The flashbang exploded a little earlier than the grenade, and the dazzling strong light and loud noise made Russell pause in his tracks.

The dazzling strong light didn't cause any damage to Russell in his Venom form.

But the loud noise brought him some minor trouble.

One of the symbiote's weaknesses happens to be sound waves.

Although the flashbang's noise frequency wasn't between the 4,000 to 6,000 Hertz that the symbiote finds most unbearable, it still caused some stress response in the symbiote on him.

To be precise, a part of the symbiote on his body had a stress response.

Dozens of black tentacles uncontrollably surged out, as if they were trying to detach from his body.

However, this stress response only lasted for less than a second before completely disappearing.

But by this time, the shockwave and flames produced by the grenade explosion had also arrived.

Compared to the flashbang, the effect of the grenade explosion was even smaller.

The shockwave, which would be fatal to an ordinary person, felt like a gentle breeze to the current Russell.

Although flames are also a weakness of the symbiote.

The flames produced by the grenade explosion lasted too short a time, so short that they didn't even leave a scar.

Although the Punisher didn't know the symbiote's weaknesses, it must be said that he was lucky.

The flashbang and grenade coincidentally touched upon the symbiote's two weaknesses.

If he had a few more tries, he should be able to discover these two weaknesses.

But unfortunately, his good luck ended here.

The second after the flashbang and grenade exploded, Russell, looking like a black monster, arrived in front of the Punisher, and his demon-like claws swiped towards him.

The Punisher was indeed the man whom the Motherfucker Hero evaluated as a "Level 10 Agent."

At this critical moment, he held the rifle in his hand across his chest, using it as a shield.

Bang!

Russell's right claw slashed across the rifle in the Punisher's hand, and the immense force directly shattered the rifle.

Fragments scattered everywhere.

The immense force was transmitted through the rifle to the Punisher, sending him flying backward.

Before he even landed, the Punisher drew his pistol and fired frantically at Russell.

Bang bang bang bang bang...

The bullets undoubtedly hit Russell.

Then, they bounced off.

Witnessing this scene, the Punisher showed an extremely solemn expression.

After realizing that bullets couldn't injure Russell, the Punisher decisively stopped firing.

After landing, he didn't hesitate, rolled, threw away his pistol, and took out two more grenades.

Pulling the pins, he threw the grenades one after another towards Russell.

With Russell's current speed, dodging the grenades thrown by the Punisher was no problem at all.

But he didn't do that.

The moment the Punisher threw the grenades, he controlled the black tentacles to take out the pistol on his body.

It was inconvenient for him to use firearms in his Venom form, but this didn't mean he couldn't shoot.

At this time, the black tentacles were just like his hands.

Although from the appearance, these black tentacles didn't look like human hands at all, that wasn't important.

Bang! Bang!

The moment the Punisher threw the grenades at him, Russell controlled the black tentacles to fire.

Curved bullet technique!

The bullets arced through the air, accurately hitting the grenades in mid-air.

Boom! Boom!

The hit grenades exploded without any suspense!

Actually, even without the curved bullet technique, Russell could have hit these two grenades in mid-air.

But straight bullets would be too unoriginal.

Amidst the explosions, Russell controlled two more black tentacles, taking out another pistol and a rifle.

A symbiote that only uses melee combat and cold weapons cannot be considered an excellent symbiote.

The biggest difference between humans and animals is that humans use tools.

The Venom Russell currently possesses is not the Venom in the true sense, and he hasn't considered developing it in the normal way of Venom.

If it can transform into various forms, why limit oneself?

Isn't it good to be a mobile firepower platform carrying weapons like Gatling guns and shoulder-fired rocket launchers?

A normal human can only use two guns simultaneously at most.

As for a symbiote, as long as the control keeps up, using two hundred guns simultaneously is not a problem.

Times have changed, and thinking must also keep up with the times.

Seeing Russell, who looked like a monster, perform the Brotherhood's signature curved bullet technique, the Punisher's already grim expression became even more grim.

He had just fought the Cross yesterday, and he would never mistake the unreasonable shooting technique of the curved bullet.

Russell knowing the curved bullet technique was already surprising enough for him.

Seeing Russell control black tentacles to take out a pistol and a rifle from his body again, he knew that today was not just ordinary trouble.
