I'm doing bidirectional science popularization in American comics

As the piercing metallic tremor rang out, some chilling changes began to occur in Depp.

From Depp's pores, countless pale blue viscous substances gushed out, fell to the ground, and then wriggled and merged back together.

Depp did not stop working despite seeing this; the ear-piercing sound of steel pipes clashing echoed continuously in the quiet night of Smallville.

Fortunately, Depp's yard is big enough, and Depp also created a vacuum layer for soundproofing.

So no one else heard the sound, nor did it attract anyone else's attention.

The pool of pale blue viscous substance churned and rolled on the ground as if boiling, emitting piercing screams from time to time.

It was as if... he was suffering extremely painful torment.

Depp looked at the pale blue substance and was almost certain what it was.

Symbiote... a blue symbiote that Depp had never seen before.

As for his specific name...

Depp, in his astral projection state, cannot equip the Mirror of Introduction, which is why he didn't see the blue symbiote's name earlier.

Wearing the Mirror of Introduction, the information about the blue symbiote immediately appeared before my eyes.

Siren Symbiote

Main ability: Parasitizes and enhances the abilities of the host, especially in water, the siren has the ability to make the host dominate the ocean.

Favorability rating: Destined to live or die together.

So this thing is called a siren; no wonder it's light blue.

and many more!

Depp stared at the "favorability rating" column, somewhat bewildered.

They're inseparable from the very beginning?

Stop messing around, right now the only one who can reach this level of favorability is Selena.

What's going on with your symbiote?

Is she really that unreserved?

Depp immediately stopped hitting the iron bar, and the siren symbiote also stopped churning and quietly huddled together in a small ball.

Just like a slime!

Depp stared at the other person and said directly, "Hey, do you even have your own consciousness?"

Looking at the little slime in front of him, Depp suddenly felt a sense of anticipation.

Because, in theory, symbiotic organisms do not have self-awareness.

They only develop self-awareness when they parasitize other organisms.

If the host is righteous, then the symbiote will also become righteous.

If the host is evil, the symbiote will amplify that evil as much as its power, many times over.

Even the famous Venom initially lacked self-awareness.

But Depp still had some expectations, because this slime called the Siren Symbiote could actually develop such a subjective feeling of liking him.

Then it is very likely that this guy is an extremely rare species with self-awareness!

About five seconds after asking that question, Depp started hearing a buzzing sound in his head.

It's like some kind of electric current that's completely incomprehensible.

emmmm

"Could you speak more clearly, or speak more slowly, so that I can hear you clearly?"

Depp spoke carefully, afraid of frightening the child.

Ten seconds later, a series of intermittent sounds echoed in Depp's mind.

"Hello... I am... I am... a siren symbiote. It's an honor to meet you, sir."

The siren symbiote's voice was faint and weak, but anyone could tell it was a woman's voice.

However, Depp frowned slightly: "Why is it a loli voice?"

Upon hearing Depp's words, the Siren Symbiote was visibly taken aback for a moment, then changed its voice to a mature, older woman's tone and said, "Hello, I am the Siren Symbiote. It's nice to meet you."

Depp smiled slightly upon hearing this: "That's good, that sounds really big!"

Siren Symbiote:........

I never expected you to be this kind of host!

Since that's the case, I won't pretend to be an innocent little white flower anymore!

The siren symbiote immediately spoke in the same mature female voice as before: "Sir, you are so handsome, please merge with me!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she pounced on Depp.

However, Depp wasn't about to let this thing take advantage of him so easily, so he used Asgardian spatial magic to imprison it in mid-air.

"Lady Siren, please have some self-respect!"

Depp walked over and carefully observed the siren symbiote in front of him.

Unlike Venom's dark appearance, it has absolutely no resemblance to the blood-stained look.

The siren symbiote in front of me was a translucent sky blue, with countless shimmering points of light within it, like a starry sky.

I have to say, this thing is actually quite nice-looking.

It looks a bit like a pale blue artificial starry sky.

The siren symbiote, imprisoned in mid-air by Depp, struggled desperately, but to no avail: "Sir, I just want to stay in your body a little longer."

Depp waved his hand: "That's a different price."

"Another price?" The siren symbiote pondered for a moment and said, "I think I can kill the richest guy in this country and give you all his money."

Upon hearing this, Depp looked towards Wayne Tower in Gotham City, a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

“That’s not what I meant,” Depp asked. “My name is Depp, and I think you should introduce yourself as well.”

Upon hearing this, the siren symbiote immediately organized its thoughts and said:

"Oh right, I haven't introduced myself to such a handsome gentleman yet, how rude of me!"

"My name is Siren Symbiote. If you know what a symbiote is, you'll know what I am. If you don't... let me give you a brief introduction."

"Symbiotes can parasitize humans or other organisms, and after fusion, they will give the host super strength, speed and other abilities."

"As for me... I will grant my host the additional ability to dominate the ocean."

"On land, I will probably increase the host's strength by about ten times, but in the ocean, I will multiply that number by another ten, which will definitely make you... unable to stop!"

That voice... it's really sexy!

Depp nodded upon hearing this. This was basically consistent with the information given in the Mirror of Introduction. The mature symbiote was not lying.

However, some aspects of the Siren Symbiote were still omitted, with negative information not being provided.

Depp said, "Perhaps after parasitizing, you will amplify the host's emotions, making the host irritable, irritable, and bloodthirsty."

Upon hearing this, the Siren Symbiote immediately shook its head, though Depp had no idea how it did it.

“No, no, no, sir, I’m completely different from those stinky men like Venom!” The Siren symbiote patiently explained, “My power lies in water, and water represents magnetic gentleness and life. Also, I’m blue, and blue represents melancholy, tranquility, rationality, peace, and hope, but it can’t represent anger and killing, which are things that black and red guys like to do.”

Depp listened to this with some skepticism, but couldn't verify it.

Unless... you try being completely parasitized by the siren symbiote yourself.

Although he didn't believe the Siren symbiote could completely take over his consciousness, Depp was unwilling to take the risk.

Seeing Depp remain silent, the Siren symbiote urged again, "Are you really not willing to give it a try?"

Depp didn't answer the siren symbiote's question, but instead asked, "Why are you so insistent on merging with me?"

“Isn’t the reason obvious?” the siren symbiote said. “Of course it’s because you’re handsome! I’ve been on Earth for so many years and this is the first time I’ve seen such a handsome man. Of course I have to give it a try! When you meet someone you like, you have to take the initiative. That’s my way as a symbiote!”

"Have you ever merged with anyone else?" Depp asked.

This time, the Siren symbiote took ten seconds to answer Depp's question, seemingly only then calculating how many people it had merged with.

"There are probably around 120, but all my previous hosts were women, the very beautiful kind."

The Siren Symbiote spoke proudly.

"Really? Not a single man?" Depp was somewhat skeptical.

"Of course, you are the first man I want to merge with. Before this, I have never been attracted to any other man!"

The Siren Symbiote declared confidently.

"Please, let me merge with you!" the siren symbiote pleaded, sitting on the ground and laying eggs. "I'll do anything to merge with you, even be a symbiote puppy!"

Good guy!

I was absolutely stunned!

Depp was speechless. This symbiote thing you're doing is really weird!

But I like it!

Of course, Depp wouldn't rashly allow the Siren symbiote to merge with him; a certain period of observation would be necessary.

“I think it’s not impossible,” Depp said. “However, before we merge, I think we need some time to get to know each other so that we can both feel comfortable letting the other into our bodies.”

"What you're saying is really embarrassing!" the siren symbiote said excitedly. "What kind of understanding and contact do you need? I'm willing to do anything!"

Depp took out a transparent glass bottle from the system space, opened the lid and said, "For example... let's get into this bottle first."

The siren symbiote hesitated for a moment, struggled a few times, but did not enter the bottle.

"So it really won't work?"

Depp said.
