The Comprehensive Evolution of American Comics.

Chapter 2 Omnitrix
Let's go back a little in time to the beginning.

"Intelligent lifeform detected, omnitrix activated."

Yang Le stared blankly at the big pit in front of him. Not long ago, a meteor fell from the sky and hit here. The huge impact force even overturned his campsite not far away.

After Yang Le struggled to climb out of the collapsed tent, he saw a forest not far away with sporadic flames.

In order to prevent the forest fire from happening, Yang Le dug out the fire extinguisher he was carrying from the mess and ran towards the fire.

Fortunately, the fire just started and Yang Le stopped the fire before it spread. Yang Le, who was putting out fires along the way, naturally came to the fire point.

Then what appeared in front of Yang Le was the scene in front of him: a basketball-sized sphere that looked very high-tech. Suddenly, a light curtain appeared and swept across him, and then the sound at the beginning was remembered.

"What the hell is this?" Yang Le stared in amazement as the sphere deformed, revealing something that looked like a camera. The camera flashed, and then a figure was projected.

The projected figure was very short, with an inverted triangle head, a pair of huge eyeballs occupying the two corners, and broad hands and feet, looking like a frog.

"Gavin?" Yang Le exclaimed his name in surprise as he looked at the alien in front of him. The alien in front of him was almost exactly the same as the little warrior in the cartoon "Ben 10" that Yang Le watched when he was a child.

It’s just that Little Hero is the name given to him by the protagonist, and his official name should be Gavin Starman.

Yang Le felt that his three views were challenged. He didn't think it was strange that there were aliens in the world, but it was shocking that this alien looked like a character in a cartoon.

However, before Yang Le could reshape his worldview, the projected Gavin alien on the opposite side spoke.

"Hello, my name is Azmis, I'm from Gavin Star, and I'm also the smartest person there."

"Azmis!? Uh, hello...hello." Yang Le's brain short-circuited because he received too much shocking information in a short period of time, and he subconsciously replied.

"By the time someone sees this message, I'll probably be in a very bad state."

"It's more dangerous than safe? Why?" Yang Le asked Azmis.

However, Azmis did not reply to Yang Le, as if he could not hear him, and continued to talk on his own.

"So I recorded this video in advance just in case."

After hearing this, Yang Le understood that no matter how he asked, there would be no result, so he calmed down and continued to listen to Azmis's narration.

"A group of lunatics appeared in my universe. They found the legendary Ashes and Ashes, a terrifying weapon that can destroy an entire universe. We are trying to stop them. Just in case, I sent the backup Omnitrix to other universes to preserve the species in our universe."

When talking about the Omnitrix, Azmis' tone became proud, and he was obviously very satisfied with his invention.

"The Omnitrix is ​​a valuable device that can record the genetic information of living things. It can scan and record the genetic information of living things, and even allows the wearer to transform into the species containing the genetic information. It is a device that can promote peace among all civilizations and races in the universe."

At this point, Azmis changed the subject.

"Of course, it can also become the most terrifying weapon in the hands of someone with ulterior motives. I would never give it to anyone casually like this, but the situation is urgent, so I have no choice but to do this. Of course, I have set restrictions on the Omnitrix..."

Azmis raised his finger and continued.

"The Omnitrix contains genetic information for thousands of species, but I only unlocked five initially."

"Five kinds. The small class initially has 10 kinds, and the class 23 initially has 23 kinds of aliens." It's really frustrating to compare yourself with others. Yang Le felt that he might be the owner of the small broken watch with the least number of aliens at the beginning, but it didn't matter. Cracking the small broken watch by oneself is a must for every wearer.

Of course, Azmis in the video could not sense Yang Le’s resentment and continued speaking.

"Now comes the key point. Listen carefully. If you want to unlock more genetic information, you need to collect joy energy."

"Happy energy?" Yang Le frowned after hearing this. This was different from the little broken watch he knew. The little broken watch in the animations he watched never had the function of absorbing happy energy.

"Joy Energy is a new feature I added to the Omnitrix after being inspired by a circus clown on Earth. Joy Energy is the energy released when a living being is truly happy. However, I expanded it a bit so that any positive energy can be collected by the Omnitrix. In short, it's about doing good things, or in other words, being a hero." (This setting is unimportant, just to complete Azmis's logic, and it will be gone in a few chapters.)
"What a strong American anime style." Yang Le complained speechlessly.

"The time you can transform into other species is only 10 minutes, but the same joyful energy can extend your transformation time."

After a slight pause, Azmis said sternly with a serious expression.

"On the contrary, if you do something bad, the Omnitrix will also receive the negative energy you generate. Not only will the negative energy shorten your transformation time, but if there is too much, the Omnitrix will enter a dormant state and will not wake up until it absorbs a large amount of positive energy."

"I've said everything I wanted to say. The AI ​​will teach you the specific operation methods after you put on the Omnitrix. If you agree, put it on."

As Azmis finished speaking, the image distorted and vanished. With Azmis's disappearance, the sphere began to transform again. It opened, revealing a watch-like device that slowly floated above it. Yang Le slowly slid down the pit and came to the Omnitrix. After a moment's hesitation, he reached out for it.

In fact, there is nothing to hesitate about. I believe no one can refuse Xiaopobiao. As for being a hero, maybe I can do it.

As soon as Yang Le stretched out his left hand to the Omnitrix, the Omnitrix automatically tied itself to his hand and began to twist and deform like plasticine.

Under Yang Le's gaze, the Omnitrix completed its transformation. It looked less like the first form in the animation and more like the second form. It was simple, light, and consisted of black and white.

"Omnitrix binding completed, host please log in your name."

An emotionless electronic sound rang out, and the dial flashed in time with the sound. This must be the AI ​​that Azmis mentioned.

"Yang Le." Yang Le said his name.

"Received. Host information updated. Yang Le, Earthling."

The dial of the little broken watch stopped flashing, indicating that the update was complete.

"Host, please complete your first transformation under the guidance. Please touch the dial."

Yang Le stretched out his right index finger and tapped the dial. As soon as it touched the dial, a black and white projection menu appeared around it. The menu had five grids in total, and each grid had a simple human portrait. Of course, because they were aliens, the portraits had different shapes.

Yang Le took a closer look and realized that if the animation was correct, he would recognize all these aliens.

"Please slide your finger towards the alien you want to transform into."

Yang Le chose carefully and finally chose his favorite alien hero in childhood.

After Yang Le made his selection, the menu disappeared and the watch transformed again, with a button with the Omnitrix logo extending from the dial.

"Please press the sign. Be careful not to slap it too hard."

"Huh~" Yang Le exhaled and then pressed the button.

"Bang!" With a sound, Yang Le was wrapped in a white light. Yang Le felt something entering his body from the Omnitrix and changing him rapidly.

This feeling is very strange, as if I have turned into a piece of clay, my body is filled, stretched, and deformed, but I don’t feel any pain or strangeness.

Soon the white light dissipated, and Yang Le's figure disappeared, replaced by a scarlet body.

Tall, muscular, with four strong arms and skin as red as blood, yes, he is...

"Four-handed Overlord!" Yang Le raised his four hands and shouted.

The shouting startled many birds, and after venting his anger, Yang Le began to adapt to his new body.

Clenching his fists, Yang Le felt that he had endless strength. In order to test his strength, Yang Le stomped his feet hard.

But Yang Le ignored his current size. Unlike his skinny self, the Four-Armed Overlord's huge body almost filled the bottom of the pit. His kick landed directly on the sphere that previously contained the Omnitrix.

"!" With a muffled sound, Yang Le realized that he was not stepping on ordinary mud.

However, before Yang Le could move his feet, a rapid alarm sounded.

"Alert, the Omnitrix storage device is under attack, initiating an emergency time jump."

Yang Le stared quietly at the flashing red light at his feet, gritted his teeth and said, "Oh, please."

"Biu!" A white light flashed, and Yang Le and the sphere disappeared without a trace, leaving only a large burnt pit to prove what had happened here.

After the white light, Yang Le lost consciousness due to the sudden pulling pain.

"Host's life crisis detected, emergency transformation activated..."

These were the last words Yang Le heard before he lost consciousness.
