The Comprehensive Evolution of American Comics.

Chapter 1206

After about a minute or two, Yang Le ordered the fish to disperse, revealing the black beetle's mutilated limbs.

Yang Le knew from the surrounding Steel-Eating Fish that, despite the Black Beetle's tattered appearance, it was still clinging to life.

His mutilated body was encased in scarab armor to prevent him from being killed by the water pressure, but having already lost too much blood, he only had a few minutes left before he died.

Yang Le guessed that the black beetle was just waiting for him to lower his guard and check on him, so that it could launch a last-ditch counterattack.

Even so, Yang Le had a reason to get close to the black beetle before it died, since he still needed to obtain information from it.

However, torture is useless against creatures like the Black Beetle that are loyal to their race; it's better to find another way than to waste time.

Thinking of this, Yang Le ordered the Steel-Eating Fish around him to start killing each other. Although these things were brought about by his ultimate evolution, they could not simply disappear after multiplying so many.

In order not to cause any impact on the surrounding ecosystem, Yang Le had no choice but to order them to kill each other. After all, the Steel-Eating Fish's diet includes not only living things, but also things like ores.

I've also experimented with it myself, and as long as it's not the ultimate steel-toothed fish, it's impossible to control them. The steel-eating fish that lose control will be very obedient at first, but once they get too hungry, they will start to devour everything around them.

Even alien heroes with mind control abilities cannot control them well, because, as mentioned earlier, the Steel Eaters are basically brainless and cannot understand complex commands.

Ultimate Steel Fang controls Steelfish by secreting its own pheromones, similar to ichthyogens.

This is actually a rather complicated task, but for the Ultimate Steel Jaws, it's as instinctive as eating and drinking, which is why he can use it so skillfully.

Yang Le once tried to replicate this pheromone using Puba, and he could do it, but it was definitely not as simple as the Ultimate Steel Fang.

It was because of this that Yang Le gave up the idea of ​​raising steel-eating fish. The disasters caused by these things if they went wrong were far greater than the things that would be done if he kept them.

After confirming that none of the Steel-Eating Fish had survived, Yang Le transformed into an alien hero resembling a jellyfish.

With its light blue body and lightning-shaped markings on its skin, it is none other than the psychic Avatar, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Andromeda. As for why it is called the Four Heavenly Kings even though it is a group of five, it is because five of the Four Heavenly Kings are always present.

Psychic beings possess the ability to manipulate electricity, including bioelectricity, which allows them to read other people's thoughts by reading bioelectricity.

Yang Le swam to the black beetle like a real jellyfish. The beetle reacted as if it were under stress, and at an extremely fast speed, a cannon barrel condensed on its chest. Without even looking at who it was, it fired.

However, this was useless against the psychic, because he also possessed the ability to become invisible. The blazing energy beam passed straight through Yang Le's body and then shattered an underwater mountain.

Looking at the black beetle now, it was already exhaling more than it was inhaling, and it would probably die from blood loss soon. Yang Le didn't waste any time and plunged into the beetle's head.

"Zizi!"

A faint electric current emanated from the black beetle, then spread through the seawater in all directions until it disappeared.

This was Yang Le, now a psychic, using bioelectricity to read the black beetle's thoughts. Because the beetle was about to die, his methods were inevitably a bit rough, causing a weak current to surge from its body surface. Yang Le rushed as fast as he could and finally found some useful information before the black beetle died.

After the black beetle died completely, Yang Le left its body. However, due to the brutal mind reading, the body under the black beetle's armor had been burned.

However, compared to his broken limbs, these are nothing.

After escaping, Yang Le used the same method to remove the scarabs from the three black beetles. Except for the green beetle, the scarabs were easily removed from the other two due to their deaths.

Five or six minutes later, the green beetle was dismantled by the shapeshifter. Fortunately, the blue beetle was unable to contact Reach due to a malfunction and was unable to transmit information.

This also meant that the scarabs of Reach were unaware of the existence of the shapeshifters, catching this cosmic country bumpkin off guard. If the information had been transmitted and the Reachers had learned of the shapeshifters' existence, the operation would not have been so simple.

Although the shapeshifters can be considered the bane of machines, the scarabs are also the pinnacle of the Reach's technological achievements. If it weren't for the underlying code, the scarabs could probably form their own race.

This is also what makes Azmith unique. Despite being the inventor of shapeshifters, he doesn't believe he should control them. Instead, he grants them human rights, making them members of the vast universe and truly life in the real sense.

After collecting the three scarabs of different colors, Yang Le put the corpses of the black and red scarabs together, used Water Overlord to create a bubble to isolate the surrounding seawater, noted the coordinates, and then left the deep sea with the unconscious green scarab.

After emerging from the water, Yang Le was able to contact Batman.

"Batman, this is Yang Le. I've found a secret fleet of the Reach Zerg."

"This is Batman. Yang Le, don't make any rash moves. There are still a few members of the Justice League who haven't been released from control yet. It's not advisable to start a war with the Reach insectoids."

“You’re too late to say that.” Yang Le looked at the Martian he was carrying. “I’ve already wiped them all out, including the three scarab warriors among them.”

There was a noticeable pause on Batman's end, and he spoke again after a few seconds.

"Not a single survivor was left?"

"There is one survivor, but he is not a Zergling from the Reach. He is a Martian controlled by the Scarabs and is a Green Martian. He is currently in a coma."

Batman pondered. A controlled Martian probably wouldn't know anything particularly useful, but he didn't intend to blame Yang Le.

After all, anything can happen on the spot. Instead of blaming the other party afterward, it's better to find a way to solve the problem.

"Don't worry, it's alright. I've already extracted useful information from the Reach Zerg commander, and it's absolutely true and reliable."

Upon hearing the part about how real and reliable it was, Batman understood that Yang Le's method was definitely not interrogation, but rather some kind of mind-reading ability; otherwise, he wouldn't have been so certain.

Unlike others, Batman is not averse to mind reading, especially of aliens.
