The Comprehensive Evolution of American Comics.

Chapter 333

"I don't know what you are talking about?" The mutant in white still looked at Yang Le warily. This was normal. It was impossible for anyone to believe a suspicious person who suddenly appeared.

"I know you're wary of those powerful figures who might be monitoring this place." Yang Le saw the white-clad mutant's worry. "But don't worry, I've already eliminated the monitoring equipment in this area. I also know that the key to your original plan was Superboy on the -52nd floor."

The white mutant fell silent. After thinking for a while, he said, "Tell me what you think. I can make a decision after listening to you."

"I need to scan the DNA of the strongest individuals across all genetic variants." Yang Le raised his right hand and clenched it. "And I also need the DNA of all the superhumans Cadmus has in stock."

"I suppose that in order to create you and your kind, the Cadmus Institute couldn't have only had Superman's DNA, right?"

"Your appetite is bigger than I thought," said the white mutant.

"You guessed right. We did use a lot of superhuman DNA in our research, but the Cadmus Institute doesn't have that much DNA stored. You know the saying, 'A cunning rabbit has three burrows,' right? Those bigwigs don't put all their eggs in one cage."

"Whose DNA does Cadmus have?" Yang Le was not disappointed after hearing this. Although he wanted to catch them all in one fell swoop, it was normally unlikely. After all, Cadmus was just one of the baits thrown by Lu Guangtou.

That's right, one of the masterminds behind the Cadmus Institute is Lex Luthor. This bald guy doesn't think about growing hair, but continues to be a fan of Superman. He collects various biological remains of the other party and combines them with his own DNA to create Superboy. There is a bit of perversion in it.

Of course, the mastermind behind this is not just the bald guy, there are also other powerful enemies of superheroes involved, these people have formed a villain group called the Illuminati (laughs)
This organization, which also claims to be composed of the smartest people in the world, actually lives up to its self-promotion. At least they really have a plan in mind, which is much better than the Illuminati next door.

"Superman and Black Lightning," the white-clad mutant spat out the two titles. "Superman's DNA was used to develop Superboy, and Black Lightning's DNA was used to develop those electric creatures."

Yang Le nodded. Although there were only two DNA reserves, and one of them was the useless Black Lightning's DNA, the other Superman's DNA could make up for all the deficiencies.

"Take me to where Superman's DNA is stored." Yang Le said.

"Why would I do that?" The white-clad mutant tilted his head. "You haven't told me what you can bring to me yet?"

Yang Le grinned and activated the scanning function of the Omnitrix. The Omnitrix located on the chest of the Ice Ghost shot out a light curtain that scanned the white-clothed mutant from top to bottom.

The mutant in white was suddenly startled, thinking that he was under attack. He used his telekinesis to pull himself back to create distance, while controlling the debris on the ground to smash towards Yang Le. Various building materials submerged Yang Le. The mutant in white even used his telekinesis to press the various building materials into a sphere as tall as a person.

"Boom!"

The sphere lost its telekinetic control and fell to the ground, even creating a small hole. The white-clothed mutant slowly exhaled, thinking he had dealt with his opponent, but saw Yang Le coming out of the sphere.

Yang Le patted the wings draped over his body, brushed off the non-existent dust and said, "Why are you so nervous? I just want to show you my abilities, like this." As soon as Yang Le finished speaking, a burst of white light was emitted. When the white light dissipated, the white-clothed mutant's pupils suddenly shrank after seeing the scene in front of him.

A genetic mutant who looked similar to him stood in front of him. The difference between them was that Yang Le's body was obviously stronger than the mutant in white, especially the two horns on his head, which were as enchanting and beautiful as red agate.

"Now I understand why you're scanning all the variants." The white-clad mutant was silent for a moment before finally uttering these words. "But you don't have to bother scanning for other variants. I'm already the most powerful and comprehensive mutant."

"I can feel it." Yang Le raised his right hand in front of him and exerted a little force. His normal palm instantly transformed into a claw. "Razor claws, psychic power..."

"Super strength, armored skin, regenerative abilities," the white-clad mutant interrupted, continuing. "I have everything the other mutants have, and even more than they don't."

"It seems you're not as obedient as you appear," Yang Le said with a smile. "You didn't possess these abilities from the beginning, did you?"

"That's right." The white-clad mutant gave a wry smile. "I originally planned to rely on myself, which is why I changed my DNA. But then I realized my abilities were much weaker than the original, so I placed my hopes on Superboy."

"Your choice is correct." Yang Le pushed the sphere behind him with his hand to test his strength. He found that he could push the sphere, but it would take some effort to lift it.

"My maximum lift is 50 tons." The white-clad mutant saw Yang Le's movements and understood what he was doing. "But if I add telepathy, I can lift 70 tons. But that's still not as good as Superboy."

"I don't understand. You clearly possess far greater power than us, so why do you still need to scan our DNA?" the white-clad mutant asked in confusion.

"That's because of my plan." Yang Le turned to look at the white-clad mutant. "Let me be frank. I'm the leader of those naughty kids who broke in here. Our mission was to uncover Cadmus's secret, but that kid took matters into his own hands and tried to make a big move."

"After a short time together, I found that these children always want to go against the adults, so I need an identity that can blend in with the children. That's why I need your genetic variant DNA, and of course, Superman's DNA."

That’s right, Yang Le’s plan was to fabricate another identity and blend in with the children. As for why he didn’t directly become a new alien but chose these mutants, there are three reasons.

First, these mutants have a clear source. By becoming one of them, Yang Le won't have to tell countless lies about his identity. This way, he can not only hide it from the children, but also deceive the Justice League.

Second, blending in with the children might make it easier for him to collect genes. As long as he used his child identity properly, he could accomplish many things that he couldn't do as an adult.

Third, it can be abandoned at any time. The combat effectiveness of this temporary identity is not very high. If there is a risk of exposure, it can be used to die without any evidence. Yang Le might feel sad if other aliens in the small broken list were offline because of this. This weak and featureless genetic mutant is indeed the best cannon fodder.
