[3rd POV]
As it turns out, they couldn't really help very much. Not when the plan itself was literally spanning the entire universe. The most that they could do was give her their support and that was about it. It was simply too complicated for them to handle.
Thankfully Gwen had her thousands of clones doing most of the work, while she herself was focused on doing some other things. Like, finding other Kings in Black and defeating them, consuming their power and spreading her reach.
Like what she was doing right now, All Black pierced through the heart of a version of Peter Parker that became the King in Black. A pretty badass version too, Gwen had to admit. With a suit that was really damn cool.
Staring down at the form of Peter Parker, Gwen sighed. She had just killed the mad King in Black, absorbing his power for herself as he was decimated in battle by her, for she was well beyond him in every form. Her shadows consumed him as she stretched, feeling the power within her grow, and her control over the symbiote hive mind expanded massively, now extending to this universe as well.
She also felt her senses grow and begin to spread throughout time and space, now allowing her to effortlessly see the symbiotes of the past and future, connecting to them. Her mind was no longer shackled by something as fickle as time, and could literally travel to the past and future effortlessly.
She was becoming more and more omnipresent.
"So much death and destruction for nothing" Gwen said, disappointed in the actions of this Peter. She knew that this version of him would have become something far far more dangerous had he continued, something called the "Eventual" a higher being that was similar to the "Eventuality" that was the literal embodiment of every Eddie Brock that stayed as Venom.
Just like there was the King in Crimson that was the embodiment of every Carnage. The Eventuality and King in Crimson being by far the strongest of them, and the ones that Gwen knew were immensely dangerous, even to her.
They were higher beings that stood at the apex of the Symbiote Hivemind, with the Eventuality existing within the "Un-Beyond" which is the heart of the Hivemind of the symbiotes, and the opposite of the home of the Beyonders.
She could already travel there if she wished to, but she wanted to become stronger before then. To consume thousands of evil version of the King in Black and become the Queen in Black throughout the entire multiverse, not just a limited range.
"...But at least fools like him give me a chance at obtaining more power" Gwen said with a hum, as she took a step and shattered the barriers between reality, entering another one that she sensed had a King in Black, and a less than kind one.
This version of Eddie had taken to...consuming others, and not in the way she did, but in a far far more cannibalistic manner. And he was particularly fond of doing it with babies.
So yeah, not exactly the nicest King in Black. Which is why she was more than willing to rip the guy to shreds and consume him in order to strengthen herself even further. It got easier and easier with every single one she consumed, as her dominance over the hive mind grew, and so too did her incredible Nigh-Omnipotent power.
If Doom was to become the "Ivory Emperor" with the power of every Beyonder, she would become the "Onyx Empress" who would have the power of every King in Black, Queen in Black, and everyone similar, even the King in Crimson or whatever else.
It would give her more power, still not enough, but more.
Finding the King in Black from this universe hadn't been difficult at all, the mad king was ripping through the universe without a care, and her senses were strong enough that she was able to find him in an instant. And in the next instant, she appeared in front of him, her blade slashing him in half like he was made of butter.
She was simply too fast for the King in Black to even react anymore. Moving faster than an instant, so fast that she can outrun death itself, faster than what was possible by the laws of the multiverse.
The King in Black had been absorbed into her the moment later, his power becoming her power. She didn't care much for him, so she just began to move on, and by the end of a long 10 hour trip across the multiverse, she had absorbed a total of 50 more Kings in Black, her power rising dramatically thanks to this.
The connection that she had to the Symbiote Hive Mind had grown massively, as had the stretch of her senses to an entirely new degree. She was becoming borderline Omniscient and Omnipresent, as she was effectively every symbiote in those universes, all of them being sort of extensions of herself.
And that gave her a LOT of new knowledge, from the past, present, and even the future.
It was a...lot to know about. A lot to get used to as well. Having the minds of untold numbers of symbiotes all connecting to her, so many symbiotes that it made even the lives she has lived look tiny in comparison.
But she was still glad about it either way. The knowledge she had gained was incredible and would only continue to grow with every King in Black she wipes out and consumes, and eventually that will rise to the level of the Eventuality, making her the one true power of the Symbiote Hive Mind and the Un-Beyond.
Hopefully before she has to kill God Emperor Doom, who will be an absolute pain in the ass to kill if she doesn't consume more of these Kings in Black. She still had to sacrifice her eyes and perhaps even more to the World Tree, which will give her an incredible boost in power.
From there she could kill Those who Sit in the Shadows, and obtain the power of that group, which were supposedly Beyonders. Likely not as strong as the true ones that she knew, but they were still far stronger than any normal cosmic being.
"Why do so many of these Kings in Black like to eat people so much? It's seriously throwing me off" Gwen said, as she consumed the last King in Black for the day, the fiftieth after she consumed the first cannibal one.
"I mean, I know symbiotes have the tendency to eat people, but my God there are way too many cannibals!" Gwen said, seriously disturbed with how many Kings in Black REALLY liked human meat.
It was discomforting.
"At least I'm done for the day I guess" Gwen grumbled, hoping she wouldn't have to keep killing cannibalistic Kings in Black.
She had a feeling she would be.
She hoped not though.
"I'll have to start focusing on the Kings in Crimson next, they have different power and are much more evil too" Gwen said to herself as she took steps, with each step she shattered the walls between universes and stepped into a new one.
It was simply that effortless for her to travel through the multiverse.
With one final step, Gwen reappeared back in Malzif, a smile on her face as she knew that she could go relax at home. So, with that in mind, she teleported off, one thought on her mind as she did so.
