"I don't know."

Adrian Toomes shook his head without thinking, but then he saw the expression of the black man opposite him clearly darken, so he quickly added:

"I'm not lying, I really don't know who his true identity is, I haven't even seen his face... That guy has never shown his true appearance in front of us."

This time, Nick Fury still didn't question him, creating the impression that he already knew the answer and was just deliberately testing the truth of what Adrian Toomes was saying.

After a moment of contemplation, he continued to ask in a flat tone, "Where do those Symbiote Warriors usually hide?"

"I don't know."

Adrian Toomes shook his head again, "The order I received that night was to attract the police's attention, and then find a place to hide and wait for a summons... So I don't know where he hid those Symbiote Warriors."

A hint of disappointment flashed in Nick Fury's eyes, but he patiently continued to ask, "Then the Knull you mentioned? Who is he? And what is his purpose?"

"He..."

This time, Adrian Toomes's answer was finally no longer 'I don't know', but this question seemed to have flipped his fear switch.

This 'tough guy' who dared to confront several Avengers alone just a few hours ago, now slowly brought his head closer to the table, forcefully pulling at his hair with his handcuffed hands, and recalled with a pained expression:

"Knull is the God of Symbiotes, the Dark King... All Symbiotes were created by his own hands..."

"He is currently imprisoned on a Symbiote Planet called Klyntar, and as long as the last Gene Code can be found, he can be released from Klyntar's imprisonment."

"And the Void Knight who caused the 'Ravencroft Prison Incident' is the Agent he personally chose..."

"Almost all Symbiotes on Earth must follow his arrangements, because all of this is the will of Knull!!"

If you're going to talk about that, then I'm wide awake.

Nick Fury's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and he couldn't help but interrupt, "Wait a minute, do you know the interstellar coordinates of Klyntar?"

Adrian Toomes shook his head without lifting it, "Only the Void Knight knows where Klyntar is, because once that missing Gene Code is found, he needs to personally deliver it there."

This answer couldn't help but disappoint Nick Fury, because he urgently wanted to know if the Symbiote Planet Klyntar the other party mentioned was the asteroid that Eddie Brock and others had previously traveled to.

If so, then he would truly strike it rich, and also take the opportunity to confirm the true identity of the Void Knight.

After all, not many people went to that asteroid that day... And the one he suspected the most was naturally Eddie Brock!

After thinking for a moment, Nick Fury continued to ask, "What did you mean just now when you said Knull is imprisoned on Klyntar?"

"It means exactly what it says."

Adrian Toomes slowly raised his head, revealing a pair of bloodshot eyes. This scene immediately startled Nick Fury opposite him, and he almost pulled out his gun to empty the magazine, as Adrian Toomes certainly didn't look like this just now.

"Klyntar is actually a small Symbiote Planet formed by tens of millions of Opposing Symbiotes, and its main purpose is to imprison Knull..."

"Hmm?" Nick Fury frowned deeply and immediately questioned, "Didn't you just say that Knull is the God of Symbiotes who created all Symbiotes? Then why would there still be Symbiotes opposing him? Betraying him?"

"Adrian Toomes, I'm warning you, you'd better answer my questions truthfully, don't play games with me here, otherwise the consequences will be beyond your imagination!!"

Facing Nick Fury's questions and threats, Adrian Toomes shook his head with a hint of helplessness, "I don't know the specific reason, all this information is just what I got from the Loyalist Symbiote that possessed me."

"As for whether it's true or not... I'm afraid you'll have to judge that yourself!"

"Hmph!"

Nick Fury's face darkened, clearly displeased with this answer, but then he seemed to think of something, suddenly widened his single eye, and asked urgently:

"Wait a minute, you just said that on that Planet called Klyntar... there are millions of Symbiotes?"

"That's right." Adrian Toomes looked at Nick Fury with a strange look in his eyes, "I know what you're thinking, but I advise you not to set your sights on Klyntar, because once Knull is released, the first to suffer will be Earth!"

"He will devour Earth, and the entire Universe, with endless darkness..."

However, Nick Fury didn't appreciate his kind reminder.

What the hell do you know? I'm not only setting my sights on Klyntar, but I also want that so-called God of Symbiotes, Knull, as well!

If I could capture Knull and bring him back to S.H.I.E.L.D. to control him, wouldn't I be able to 'continuously' mass-produce infinite Symbiotes from him, like a juicer?

If this idea could really succeed, wouldn't S.H.I.E.L.D. just take off immediately?

From now on, no matter how many 'Symbiote soldiers' Nick Fury wants, it will no longer be a problem!

And by then, even if his mortal enemy Karl Merks possesses the Titan Security Team that strikes fear into countries around the World and major organizations, they absolutely wouldn't be able to withstand the powerful army of massive 'Symbiote soldiers' under his command!

Thinking of this, Nick Fury suddenly felt a surge of excitement.

He even felt like a 'great revenge' was about to be exacted!

You know, ever since Karl appeared, he hasn't felt this exhilarated in a long time!

And the reason Nick Fury dared to make such a bold assumption was naturally entirely due to the biggest trump card in his hand—Captain Marvel, Carol Danvers.

In his opinion... no, to be precise, based on Nick Fury's current understanding, looking across the entire Universe, there's no trouble that Captain Marvel can't solve.

Of course, except for Karl Merks, whom he's somewhat unsure about!

"What I want to do is none of your concern as a prisoner; you just need to answer my questions truthfully."

Nick Fury continued to ask with a cold face, "Where is that missing Gene Code?"

Adrian Toomes shook his head upon hearing this, "I don't know, I'm afraid only the Void Knight knows who exactly has the Gene Code... It's just that it's likely related to the previous owners of those Symbiotes."

Somehow, when Nick Fury heard the other party's answer, the figure of Karl Merks suddenly appeared in his mind.

Could that so-called Gene Code be on this bastard?

If that's really the case, then things might get a bit tricky!

The situation Nick Fury least wanted to see right now was Karl getting involved in this matter.

Because any incident this guy is involved in, without exception, always ends with him and S.H.I.E.L.D. suffering losses and bad luck!

Because of this, Nick Fury was almost getting PTSD from Karl.

So he immediately decided that he must find the Void Knight as soon as possible before Karl gets involved, and force out the interstellar coordinates of the Symbiote Planet Klyntar.

After secretly making up his mind, Nick Fury looked with a cold gaze at Adrian Toomes opposite him, whose expression had slightly improved, "Can you recall any other useful information related to the Void Knight?"

"No more. If there were, I would have gone to settle the score with that guy days ago." Adrian Toomes shook his head helplessly.

"Alright, let's stop here for today. If you remember any more useful information later, I will send someone to see you..."

With that, Nick Fury stood up and walked directly out of the interrogation room.

Seeing this, Adrian Toomes quickly shouted loudly, "Hey, wait a minute, you haven't told me how my daughter is doing now!!"

"I said, you are not qualified to ask me questions." Nick Fury left behind a cold remark without looking back, then pushed the door open and left.

"Bastard, you faithless son of a bitch!!"

A string of curses immediately echoed in the interrogation room, but quickly fell silent again as the door closed.

After returning to his office, Nick Fury instructed his deputy, Maria Hill, "Have Agent Romanoff come to my office immediately."

"Yes."

A few minutes later, Black Widow came to Nick Fury's office, and the latter asked directly, "Has Eddie Brock had any suspicious behavior recently?"

Black Widow looked at Nick Fury with some surprise, 'No, Officer, it seems your paranoia has worsened again!'

Then she shrugged and said, "No, that guy's behavior has been completely normal recently, no different from before."

"Could it really not be him?"

Nick Fury frowned deeply, his hands clasped on the table, and said somewhat angrily, "Damn it, if Cletus Kasady hadn't died, maybe I could have gotten more useful information from him... At least I could have asked about the hiding place of those Symbiote Warriors!"

"But now, it's all been ruined by that damn Spider-Woman."

The more Nick Fury spoke, the angrier he became, and a raging fire burned in his single eye. He wished he could skin and dismember the Spider-Woman who had ruined his important matters.

He had clearly forgotten how timid and hesitant he was when Homelander appeared!

After thinking for a moment, Nick Fury instructed, "Tell the Captain to stake out the streets, find a way to catch a Symbiote Warrior and bring him back for interrogation. We must find out the hiding place of these guys as soon as possible."

"But..." Black Widow looked like she wanted to say more but hesitated, and said with some difficulty, "We don't know their exact whereabouts at all right now?"

"I don't care."

Nick Fury glared and said irritably, "If you can't find them on the streets, look in the sewers. In short, I'm sure they are hiding somewhere in New York."

Black Widow: "...Yes, Officer."

...

Two days later.

Three figures moved quickly through the silent, empty streets, using the cover of the dark night.

"Peter, Gwen, that guy came this way."

In mid-air, Harry Osborn, wearing a set of green armor and a multi-functional face mask that just covered his eyes, was currently standing on a flying device with vertical thrust—the Demon Glider. Through the operating system interface built into the goggles, he was tracking a red dot-shaped signal source, constantly correcting the trio's route.

And that red dot signal source was precisely from the Symbiote Warrior who was captured by Peter Parker earlier.

After several consecutive days of urgent work, Peter Parker and Harry Osborn finally completed a miniature signal emitter that would not be detected by Symbiotes at the fastest speed.

After successfully installing the signal emitter, they deliberately 'released' that Symbiote Warrior onto an empty street.

To prevent the hungry Symbiote Warrior from taking the opportunity to eat people, Gwen and Lizard Peter first took turns stopping him from committing several attacks, scaring him into fleeing in panic and not daring to attack again, before they officially began tracking.

In order not to be detected by the Symbiote Warrior, who possessed keen sensory abilities, during the tracking process, the three of them did not follow too closely, but maintained a safe distance of about one to two kilometers.

"Harry, where did you get that armor you're wearing?"

Lizard Peter looked at his friend in mid-air and asked curiously, "From the appearance, how does it look a bit like it was copied from Iron Man's Mark armor?"

"Peter, who are you looking down on?"

Hearing this, Harry Osborn in mid-air immediately lowered the height of the Demon Glider, opened his face mask, and looked at his friend with an annoyed expression, sternly rebuking:

"Although you are my best friend, I still have to warn you, if you say such things again in the future, don't blame me for finding a lawyer to sue you..."

"This set of Green Goblin Armor was advanced weapon equipment personally led and developed by my Father when he was alive. If calculated from the project initiation time, it was a full 6 years earlier than Tony Stark's Mark System armor!!"

When speaking of his Father, a trace of sadness subconsciously flashed in Harry Osborn's eyes, "If my Father hadn't passed away early due to his worsening illness midway, I'm afraid the Green Goblin Armor would have been famous throughout the World long ago."

Seeing his friend fall into sadness, Lizard Peter quickly apologized, "I'm really sorry, Harry, I think your Green Goblin Armor is very cool... If you need it, I can also help you improve its performance after completing this mission."
