Marvel: I'm a Symbiote

85 Bunker Under Attack



[+0.05 EP]

'Nice…' Alex thought as he terminated the body that had just devoured the ‹Buff Class› abomination. After Alex exploded the abomination, its head was still alive and it released a loud roar. This caused the area to get swarmed by hundreds of abominations within seconds and Alex had to terminate his clone since he wasn't too interested in a drawn-out fight.

Once he comes out here with Laura they both would be able to easily take care of most of these abominations without even breaking a sweat.

'At least I know how much more EP these buff ones can give me…' Alex thought. These abominations could give him 5 times more EP. Alex wanted to see how much the regenerative class abominations could give him.

Alex decided to have some more fun with the abominations for the rest of his time. Laura was going to be out like a light until the next day so Alex sent out another body from the bunker to farm a little.

During that time of 24 hours, Alex killed a large number of grunts and buff abominations, but he wasn't able to kill any of the regenerative ones that he'd run into. He'd tried, but even after using his strongest attack— where he would gather the atmospheric lightning to launch a condensed bolt of lightning— he wasn't able to kill the regenerative abomination.

But he had confirmed something after that. Those regenerative class abominations were going to be extremely difficult to kill. Even if he and Laura could wreck those guys, killing them was going to be a whole different thing.

'Unless…' He had an idea but it would require some testing.

That 24-hour period was for both farming and scouting. As he looked around for abominations to kill, he also looked for their nests. And he'd realized that there were at least 30 nests in the 1000 miles around his bunker alone. And all of those nests were covered by similar blood domes that camouflaged their presence. The only way that Alex could detect them was through the use of his Mana Sense.

Though, he had an indistinct feeling that the first nest that he'd run into was distinctly different from the others. It just felt a bit eerie to him.

All the nests had similar architecture with different kinds of abominations roaming around while a central 'mother' would spawn more abominations. There was also some underground entrance for some unknown purpose that Alex was curious about but couldn't see into. He wasn't able to probe into the underground area since although his Mana Sense's range through the dome was high enough, the interference of the blood dome ended up reducing the range significantly.

He'd even scouted different types of leader classes and quantified the ‹Leader Class I› abomination.

‹Leader Class I›:: Peak Superhuman strength that's approaching Low Cosmic. Can control 100-1000 abominations with basic instructions. A semi-conscious mind with the ability to understand the situation and react accordingly. Can only be commanded by a ‹Leader Class II› or higher. Its appearance is similar to the ‹Grunt Class› but with a more compact muscular build that's closer to a human.

The only anomaly to all this style was the first nest. It had no underground area. And Alex had been feeling that something was wrong in Earth-Z ever since he'd gotten the ‹True Sixth Sense›, that's why he'd hurried through two levels of bonds with Laura. Though he felt that even this might only barely be enough.

The positive thing though was his gains through that time, he'd made quite a bit of EP.

«EP: 30»

It took him 24 hours to collect 15 units of EP. And he was going to get a whole lot more when he goes out with Laura.

By the time the next morning rolled around, Laura finally fluttered her eyes open.

'This feels nice…' She felt extremely comfortable and fulfilled after her sleeping for so long.

She got up and sat at the side of the bed, stretching her arms as the blanket that was covering her slid off to reveal her in all her naked glory.

"Alex…" She called out.

"Morning, Laura." He entered the room and stood there while leaning to the side and admiring her figure.

"Like what you see?" She asked as she brought her arms under her chest and wiggled her breasts.

"So much." His eyes were glued to her chest.

"My eyes are up here." She was enjoying his attention.

Laura felt really close to Alex today as if she was able to understand him to some inextricable level. And she could directly feel the adoration that he had for her. She was essential to him, and she was happy to realize that.

"I don't think so." He smiled, not taking his eyes off her chest.

"Do you just want to see, or do you want to play too?" She offered while jiggling her breasts.

"Well if you insist…" Alex smiled and walked to her.

After some light morning fun, Alex decided to explain all the benefits that would come with after new blood bond and skeletal bond.

After this, Laura genuinely did not need any air or nutrition to live. Alex could directly infuse the necessary nutrients and oxygen into her bloodstream to keep her functioning as long as necessary. There were many more benefits that came with Alex bonding with Laura's blood and skeleton but that had to be explored.

He also told her about the ‹Blood Berserker› ability that was possible after he bonded with her blood and skeleton.

"So, it's going to make me extremely mad and increase my strength?" Laura asked apprehensively.

"What is it?" Alex asked. He knew why, but he wanted the details.

"Well, I've told you about how I was basically created as a clone of Wolverine and brainwashed as a weapon from the day of my birth, right?" Laura confirmed.

"Yes," Alex agreed.

"What happened was that those people also brainwashed a trigger into me. It's a scent. Whenever I smell that scent— I think Trigger-42 it was called— I go crazy and kill everything around that scent. Especially the scent bearer. Or at least that's what used to happen until Jean helped me out with everything and stopped that trigger from affecting me." Laura told Alex while snuggled into his arms.

"I see…" Alex was quiet.

"That's why I don't really like this Blood whatever ability that you are talking about." She said.

"I understand. But this isn't like that. The so-called berserker ability is just overloading your physical attributes. You'll still be in full control of your actions." He patiently explained to her.

"You sure?" She asked.

"Yes. Trust me, you'll be fine. If you're really apprehensive, then we can go out and try out the ability on some abominations. Your current strength is enough to completely destroy any abomination that you come across…" He told her while thinking inwardly, 'Unless it's the Hulk or some being with cosmic strength…' He didn't tell her that since he didn't want to put a damper on her excitement.

"Fine. Let's give it a go. If I do end up losing control, it's not like I can hurt anyone here…" Laura's tone was slightly melancholic.

"We'll go look for them once we're safe…" He told Laura.

Just as they were enjoying their time together and discussing their future there was a loud banging sound coming from outside the bunker.

"Huh?!" Alex was completely caught unaware as he instantly extended his Mana Sense outward to see what was going on outside the bunker.

And that was when he saw a sight that chilled him down to his non-existent bones. Their entire bunker was wrapped in a blood dome. The same blood dome that usually hides the abomination nests.

The dome didn't just cover the overground entrance of the bunker, but the entire area around the bunker. Their bunker was practically wrapped in a sphere of blood that prevented Alex's natural senses from seeing through it. But that was only the start.

This was a planned ambush. Through the use of his Mana Sense, he could see a stretch of countless abominations surrounding the entirety of the bunker. They were even approaching the bunker from the underground by digging tunnels through the ground.

He and Laura were truly surrounded from all sides. And Alex could feel the presence of more than just the grunt and animal class abominations. There were 5 ‹Leader Class I› abominations mixed into this huge crowd of hundreds of thousands of abominations. And more were still gathering.

'I knew that something might be wrong, but this…' Alex was a little shocked but soon calmed down completely.

"Laura we might be in trouble…" He told her and there was another banging sound.

"The Bastion?" Laura asked apprehensively. She's always thought of the abominations as no more than mindless monsters like zombies, so she didn't expect that they would be able to track them both and attack them in the bunker.

"Not that bad. It's abominations. There are almost a million abominations surrounding us and at the front are 5 ‹Leader Class I› abominations that are going to be an extreme pain to kill.

"Fuck…" Laura just realized how fucked they were. But instead of panicking, she'd gotten extremely calm and her mind had started working to understand what they could do.

"It's fine. Think of this as a testing opportunity. We have more than enough firepower to get out of this encirclement." Alex had a bloodthirsty smile on his face. He was going to get a shitload of EP today.

"We can just—" Just as Alex was about to continue, there was another banging sound which was followed by a thumping sound. The abominations had broken through.
