Chapter 68: The Venom-Transformed Super Soldier: A Late Night Encounter

In the dead of night, the UA military base was silent, but subtle movements could be heard coming from an officer's single room. Under the dim yellow light, Kyle was wearing the Venom-transformed battle suit and doing warm-up exercises in his room. He was using the ironwood single bed as a barbell to adapt to his increased strength by lifting weights.

As he performed rhythmic exercises that bulged his abdominal muscles and intensely warmed up his hands and feet, the battle suit gradually fit to the surface of Kyle's body like a layer of black leather skin, clearly outlining the perfect muscles of his body.

"Venom, are you very happy?" Kyle asked with a smile, not only feeling Venom's joy through their connection, but also feeling energized and in a good mood himself. After fusing with Venom, their strength and emotions were intertwined and mutually influenced, resulting in a sense of sublimation.

Today was also Venom's first day of existence, as well as its first symbiotic fusion with a Super Soldier physique card holder, so it was understandably excited. However, news of Red Skull's whereabouts was expected to come in tomorrow, and the mission was imminent, so Kyle couldn't waste time.

He exhaled a hot breath, put the single bed back on the ground, and comforted the Venom battle suit. "Okay, I'll take you out for a walk tomorrow. If you keep this up, you won't be able to sleep tonight."

Just as he was about to take off the Venom battle suit, there was a knock on the door. "It's so late, who could be looking for me?" Kyle was surprised and patted the Venom battle suit comfortingly before walking over to open the door.

When Kyle saw the young man in pajamas outside the door, he couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Steve, what are you doing here so late at night?"

"I want to ask you the same thing!" Steve yawned sleepily, his blond hair a mess. It was obvious that he had just been woken up from his sleep. "It's so late at night, and you haven't slept yet. What are you doing in your room…?"

Kyle remembered that Steve's single room was directly downstairs from his room on the second floor. He shrugged and said, "There was a cockroach in the room just now, so I got up and killed it."

"Are you sure it was a cockroach…" Steve had a strange look on his face as he glanced at Kyle's combat suit and said speechlessly, "If I didn't know better, I would have thought you just came back from the front battlefield."

Kyle shrugged helplessly and said, "You know, I don't have any other clothes to wear. Sometimes I just sleep in my combat uniform. It's also convenient to be on standby at any time."

"Okay. Go to bed early. We may take action tomorrow." After Steve finished speaking, he rubbed his sleepy eyes and returned to his room downstairs.

After closing the door, Kyle breathed a sigh of relief. That had been close. If Steve had entered the room and seen the original suit on the hanger, Kyle wouldn't have known how to explain it.

"It's time of course..." Venom said.

Again? This time, Kyle was more alert. He quickly extracted the combat suit from the hanger and turned it into a card before walking over to open the door. "Steve, what are you doing here instead of sleeping -"

But when he saw the person outside the door, his words stopped abruptly. "Carter? What are you doing here in the middle of the night?" Kyle asked, his mouth twitching.

That's right. The one who knocked on the door was Carter, wearing simple long-sleeved pajamas. Her neck revealed some white skin, and her short blonde hair was casually and lazily draped over her shoulders. She had a different kind of charm compared to her usual coldness during the day.

'Do you even sleep at night??!' Kyle silently complained to himself. Seeing that Carter didn't speak, he directly asked, "Do you want to come in and sit?"

"In your dreams," Carter rolled her eyes at him and turned to lean on the wooden railing of the corridor on the second floor. Her back seemed to blend into the night. "I have something to say to you."

"Don't worry," Kyle said, thinking of something. He walked out of the corridor and leaned on Carter's side, facing the starry night sky. He whispered, "Tomorrow will be the same. No matter how many times, I'll bring Steve back."

Carter was silent for a moment. She glanced at Kyle with her beautiful eyes and said coldly, "Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to come back?"

"Won't be able to come back?" Kyle was slightly stunned. He shook his head and said, "I really haven't thought about it.

'Although I don't want to set a flag in advance, I still have some confidence in my own strength. This isn't arrogance, but based on my understanding of the Marvel world and my estimation of my own total strength and equipment. I have the Super Soldier ability and physique, dozens of fighting skills, a Sodium Carbon Steel Sword, a Vibrating Gold Arm Guard, and the newly-drawn Venom Suit from tonight. And I haven't even mentioned the life-saving Blue Eagle and Senzu Bean.'

"If Red Skull is positioned as a villain at the current stage, I really don't put him in my eyes," Kyle said. "I'll see if he can block my head-on attacks."

Carter continued, "It's good for people to have confidence, but there's always a chance. Kyle, you always rush to the front so unscrupulously. Aren't you afraid that one day you'll fall?"

"Are you concerned about me? Are you afraid that I'll die on the battlefield?" Kyle blinked in surprise. This woman seemed a bit abnormal tonight.

"Of course!" Carter nodded and admitted, "To be exact, you are one of the candidates for me to record and perfect the Super Soldier data. If you don't come back, it will be a big loss for our army."

"I only have research value? I am now a Major and an American hero. Show me some respect," Kyle retorted.

At the same time, he seemed to be aware that something was wrong with the Venom combat suit on his body and glanced back subconsciously. He didn't know when it had happened, but a liquid black line had separated from the back of the Venom combat suit and was slowly extending towards Carter's body like a tentacle.

Carter put her hands on the wooden railing and supported her chin with one palm, completely unaware of Venom's probing intention on her back.

'Don't make trouble, Venom!' Kyle's scalp tingled as he looked at it. He knew that Venom didn't have any malicious intentions. It was just a human being who had met a female for the first time and was very curious about the body structure of a woman.

"What's wrong with you? Why is your face so ugly?" Carter glanced at Kyle in surprise.

"It's nothing. Don't worry, I'll come back safely tomorrow," Kyle said, and in the corner of his eyes, Venom's liquid tentacle had approached Carter's back and was about to curiously try to cover it.

'Stop it right now!' Kyle shouted in his mind, and his right hand quickly stretched out towards Venom's extended tentacle. His two fingers accurately pinched the front end of the black line and merged it back into the Transmogrification Glove.

But then, his palm continued to move forward and gently patted Carter's raised buttocks. 'Pa!' A crisp slap sounded in the night, and the atmosphere between the two suddenly solidified.

Carter's beautiful face showed a shocked expression at first, but it quickly turned into a winter indifference, and her beautiful eyes glared fiercely at Kyle.

"That, this is a misunderstanding. There are mosquitoes," Kyle awkwardly retracted his hand and said, even he didn't believe what he said. How could there be mosquitoes in the ice and snow of winter?

"It feels good, right?" Carter snorted coldly, turned around and left the corridor downstairs. She said coldly, "American hero? Major rank? I see it now, you're nothing more than a lecherous rogue!"

"Forget it, let's sleep," Kyle said as he watched her walk away.
