Duval never considered himself one of the "good guys."
Simply because he couldn't be a superhero.
It wasn't that he lacked a basic sense of right and wrong, but because his special power—the Xenomorph—once exposed for its ability to seize a lifeform's power through parasitic chest-bursting and achieve transcendence, he would never be accepted by certain groups in this world.
Once exposed, even the most righteous superhero would be wary of him, filled with vigilance.
So, from the very beginning, Duval's half-hearted participation in this operation was aimed at the Abomination.
Blade, or rather, S.H.I.E.L.D., who was currently evaluating him, would believe that Duval had seized the olive branch they offered, essentially using this operation to express his goodwill and closeness to them in a disguised manner.
According to normal development, the rather righteous Duval was willing to risk himself for the mission issued by S.H.I.E.L.D. S.H.I.E.L.D. would assess and judge him, and perhaps one day, Duval would join the various special teams formed by S.H.I.E.L.D. as a superhero—not necessarily the Avengers, because S.H.I.E.L.D. had many special forces under its name, and the Avengers, which was being planned, was just one of them.
The normal process should be like this. Duval indeed fit the special "aesthetic" of some people: he had superior special "power," intelligence, and a clean background, simply perfect.
Unfortunately, all of this was false, based on the premise that they didn't know the Xenomorph's method of growth was so shocking, and its growth potential was impossible to estimate.
"It doesn't matter that I can't become a superhero. I don't need to bother trying to cozy up to some guys. I'll just take another path... I can't make everyone respect my character, but I can make everyone fear my power."
Duval's mind was very clear. As long as he had enough powerful force, there would be no problem.
The Abomination was the key at the moment. As long as he could get the Abomination and use his body to cultivate the first Warrior Xenomorph, the comprehensive power in Duval's hands would usher in its first take-off.
Of course, if it really succeeded, the result would be enough to shock the world, and then Duval and the Xenomorph would be officially exposed to many dangerous guys, but Duval didn't bother with such trivial things. He would wait until he got the Abomination.
As long as the speed of strength growth exceeds the speed of the crisis, all forms of adventure are worthwhile. The key is that the characteristic of the Xenomorph is that as long as the right host is found, the speed of strength transformation will be incredibly exaggerated.
Whoosh! Duval took out an egg.
The four petals opened, and a Facehugger quietly crawled out.
The Abomination didn't see this, but Mister Blue, who was hiding in the corner, praying for God's blessing so that he wouldn't be killed by flying rubble, and obsessively staring at the Xenomorph, saw it.
What was that? Judging from the size, it seemed to be an ostrich egg, but the eggshell was soft, and a strange creature crawled out of the egg, moving nimbly, and its target seemed to be...
The Abomination.
Mister Blue was startled and couldn't believe his eyes. How dare this little thing, still a newborn, try to attack the Abomination?
No matter what method it uses, it will definitely not succeed. The Abomination is my most proud work. Even if it is besieged to death by those creatures that can release strong acid, it will not lose to this little thing, Mister Blue thought.
From the battle situation, although the Abomination was extremely embarrassed, and his strong body was broken and tattered, he was not defeated. As time went by, the powerful power from the Hulk's bloodline was rapidly healing his injuries, and because of his anger, it slowly increased his strength.
Although the growth momentum stopped quickly, perhaps because the potential of the serum had been exhausted, even so, he could easily punch with a force of hundreds of tons. If the Xenomorph was touched, it would either die or be injured.
As the battle continued, Xenomorphs were constantly killed, and not even a complete corpse was left. But even in death, the Xenomorphs would try their best to die on the Abomination, letting their blood spill all over the Abomination's body, which caused the Abomination to suffer even more terrible trauma.
This degree of loss gradually made the Abomination unable to bear it.
"Very good little bugs, but it's not enough! With this kind of power, you dare to fight me?!"
The Abomination grinned hideously. In a short while, he had killed five Xenomorphs, and they were the strongest five. Most of the remaining ones were one size smaller.
Even though one of his arms and shoulders had been corroded to only bones, he had managed to hold on.
Victory belongs to the strong, to the great Abomination, the Abomination thought. He would kill these bugs, then find Duval, crush him cruelly, then find a place to rest, and finally kill the Hulk to prove that he was the strongest, and that his pursuit of power was not wrong! Just then, when the Abomination felt a trace of fatigue and was delighted by the prospect of victory.
The Facehugger seized the opportunity, lay on the back of a Courier, and when the Abomination grabbed it, it fully demonstrated its extraordinary agility, quickly crawling along the Abomination's finger bones, and successfully jumped onto the Abomination's face.
"What is this?"
The Abomination exerted force with both hands, first tearing the Courier Xenomorph in half. This was too easy for him, dealing with Xenomorphs born from parasitizing ordinary mammals, one at a time.
But his arrogance still made him fall for it. Who would have thought that the real killer move would be such a small thing?
Even with the Abomination's strength, he experienced a moment of dizziness after being covered in the Facehugger, but this dizziness was quickly dispelled by anger. He pinched the unresponsive Facehugger with two fingers, slammed it hard against the wall, and smashed it into meat paste.
Sizzle!
The Facehugger's remains burst open, also corroding the wall.
"Such a small thing also has this kind of blood in its body? The scientist who made this thing is really crazy, but the power obtained by this method cannot be compared with mine at all."
Only extreme power is the future. This was the conclusion the Abomination reached after observing the Hulk and personally obtaining part of the Hulk's power.
It seemed that he had to work harder to kill all these disgusting creatures, and then kill that young man who was of unknown origin but insisted on opposing him.
But when the Abomination went to hunt the other Xenomorphs with a ferocious look, he was surprised to see that these Xenomorphs quickly retreated and gathered together, and the young man didn't know when he had appeared in a more distant position.
"Blonsky, we'll meet again soon, in another form."
Duval's face bloomed with a smile. After confirming the successful parasitism, the stone in his heart completely fell to the ground. No matter how crazy the Abomination roared, he found this big guy very cute.
The more mighty and majestic he was, the more gratified Duval felt, like a kind old father.
The Abomination's eyes were bloodshot. He had paid a huge price, and before he could even savor the taste, he had suffered a major injury. Immediately, he grabbed a piece of reinforced concrete and slammed it towards Duval.
Duval stood still, his expression gentle. The five remaining Xenomorphs acted simultaneously, standing in front of Duval, extending their claws and lifting them upwards in unison, with a bang, blowing the reinforced concrete away.
Dust flew, revealing Duval's face.
Extremely elegant, showing composure.
The Abomination roared and strode over, only to see Duval leap up and easily appear dozens of meters away. This obvious physical fitness, not of an ordinary person, surprised the Abomination.
After Duval successfully escaped, this series of actions was incomprehensible to the Abomination.
"Next time we meet, I will kill this bastard!!" The Abomination seized the time to repair his wounds, punching the wall in frustration, shaking a piece of the ceiling down, which hit him on the head.
"But we don't know who he is," Mister Blue said.
The Abomination kicked him, and the poor Mister Blue was almost kicked to pieces, but whether it was fortunate or unfortunate, Mister Blue bumped into a bottle of Hulk serum that he hadn't used up and had carefully sealed.
