Thena shook her head. "I don't know how powerful this dragon is. After all, I don't know if the information is true or not."
"Also, this so-called Dragon Ball Competition is only the second one."
"If the information in the Dragon Ball is true, I plan to have the dragon cure my Mahd Wy'ry completely."
After hearing Thena's words, Gilgamesh nodded. If the dragon could really fulfill any wish, then curing Thena's condition would be the best wish. As for other wishes, the Eternals had no need for them.
If they'd had different priorities back then, the Eternals wouldn't have disbanded. They wouldn't have chosen to step down from their position and abandon the city of Babylon they'd built.
"It would be great if this dragon could really do it," Gilgamesh said. "I'm afraid this is just another conspiracy by some magician or wizard."
Thena sighed. "If it's fake, no matter if it's a magician or a wizard playing tricks on me, I'll make them pay with their lives."
Gilgamesh agreed with Thena's words, then asked, "Do you need to gather the other Eternals and have them help you collect the other Dragon Balls?"
Thena shook her head and refused. "It's not like any Deviants have appeared. There's no need to summon the other Eternals."
"With my combat abilities, if I participate in this so-called Dragon Ball competition, I will definitely win as the champion."
Seeing Thena's confident words, Gilgamesh smiled. If there was no Mahd Wy'ry, Thena would never suddenly attack surrounding lives again. They could live in a city instead of in this desert wasteland.
On the other side, Smith Doyle watched Thena and Gilgamesh through his connection to the Dragon Ball. Although there was no sound, he could roughly understand the content of their conversation through lip reading.
"Eternal Thena, Ten Rings Master Xu Wenwu, Asgardian Thor, Karl Mordo of Kamar-Taj, and Iron Man Tony Stark. This year's Dragon Ball battle is really getting more and more interesting."
"I just don't know who the winner will be this time. It really makes me look forward to it."
After identifying five Dragon Ball holders in a row, Smith shifted his focus to explore the location of the next Dragon Ball.
Soon the perspective of the sixth Dragon Ball appeared before him.
"It's actually in the water, but I don't know if it's in a river, a lake, or the ocean?"
Seeing that the sixth Dragon Ball was submerged, Smith stopped paying attention to it and changed his perspective to look at the location of the seventh Dragon Ball.
The next second, Eddie Brock appeared in Smith's sight. Looking at Venom Eddie, Smith smiled.
Compared to the other five powerful holders, Eddie Brock's strength was relatively weak. With his current abilities, he would probably have a hard time in this battle for the Dragon Balls.
At that moment, Eddie was communicating with Venom in his Brooklyn apartment.
"Venom, did you get that information just now?"
Venom asked doubtfully, "What information?"
Then Venom quickly learned about the Dragon Ball from Eddie's brain. The symbiote stretched out his head and floated in front of Eddie, his face full of disbelief.
"Eddie, your planet actually has treasures like Dragon Balls?"
Eddie said, "That's the first time I know about this too."
"A dragon that can grant any wish is truly incredible." Venom thought for a moment, then asked, "Eddie, do you have any wishes?"
Eddie rested his chin on his hand and thought. "I just got married to Anne not long ago, and the officiant was our big boss, Smith Doyle. My life is currently going well and my work is going well. Also, our group acquired a fairly large news media company, and I'm currently the head of that company. Secretly, I'm also a superhero in New York City."
"I'm at the peak of both my career and my life right now, so I don't really have any special wishes."
"But if I can get more money, I'm still willing to pursue it!"
Hearing Eddie's wish without any grand ideals, Venom sighed. This unambitious Eddie was really the same as himself.
After Eddie finished speaking, he asked Venom, "Venom, do you have a wish you'd like to fulfill?"
Venom thought for a moment, then asked, "Can I have a few more heads?"
Eddie sighed when he heard about Venom's pursuit. His symbiote partner also had no grand ambitions at all.
"Except for bad guys' heads, you're not allowed to eat anyone else's."
Venom said indifferently, "Then I don't have any wishes either. But you should practice more. You're really a little weak."
"Besides, we only have one Dragon Ball. Isn't discussing wishes a bit premature?"
Eddie laughed after hearing this. "Hahaha, but we are extraordinary beings, so our hope of winning the championship is still pretty good."
"And about training—Venom, you're not planning on asking me to climb Korin Tower, are you?"
Venom said, "Do you think the other contestants will be ordinary people?"
"Also, why can't you climb Korin Tower? Can't you get up there with my help?"
Eddie grimaced. Korin Tower wasn't easy to climb, and the training intensity was very high. Especially after he'd seen John Wick being knocked down from the top of the tower, Eddie no longer had such a strong desire to reach the summit.
Another thing was that Eddie felt after combining with Venom, his strength as a superhuman was already quite powerful. There was no special crisis in the world right now. His current strength was enough to deal with the situations he faced. Even when it came to fighting crime and gangs, he honestly felt he was somewhat overqualified.
"I feel like the boss has the most extraordinary people in the world. Do you think the other contestants are all my colleagues from the Fraternity?"
Venom thought for a moment and said, "It's not impossible. Maybe the competition is organized by your boss."
After hearing this, Eddie thought about it and realized this wasn't impossible. His boss's strength was truly terrifying, especially since he also had an official identity. "Then let's go to the boss tomorrow and ask about the Dragon Ball issue. See if he can give us a good solution."
After hearing Eddie's choice, Venom suddenly asked, "What if your boss wants to take the Dragon Ball for himself?"
Eddie shrugged and said, "Then I'll give it to the boss. He's been so good to me, so it doesn't matter if I give him a Dragon Ball."
After hearing Eddie's answer, Venom examined his host. Sometimes he couldn't help but think that his host was actually quite smart.
