The Comprehensive Evolution of American Comics.

Chapter 40: Controlling the Omnitrix and the Disappearance of Peter
"Inhale~Exhale~." Yang Le, transformed into a spirit, took a deep breath to calm his inner excitement. "Okay, let's try it once."

Today is an extraordinary day. It has been a month since Gwen and I investigated the Hand. Now it is October 10th, the day of Midtown High School's homecoming party, and Gwen and her friends will perform at the party tonight.

That’s right, the other Midtown band they were competing against was no match for them at all. Once you’ve seen the Mary Janes perform, choosing them is a given.

But that's not all. If it were just that, it wouldn't make Yang Le so excited that he needed to take a deep breath to calm down. Although Gwen happily picked him up and spun him around several times, this didn't make Yang Le happy at all.

Do you think Yang Le is being ungrateful because of the soft fragrance? Haha, to tell you the truth, Yang Le felt like he was participating in an astronaut vertigo training. He almost vomited out all three meals a day.

So the main reason why Yang Le was so excited was that Azmis’ decoding was finally completed today!
Yang Le took out the result from the decoder with trembling hands. It was a storage device that looked like an ordinary USB flash drive, which contained the decoded Azmis gene.

"I didn't expect it to be successful." The sprite's shrill voice revealed a hint of madness, and he looked like a mad scientist in a children's cartoon.

Yang Le rolled up the storage device with his tail and quickly ran to the cracking machine that had been prepared long ago. He adjusted the data on the operating table and then turned back into a human.

Yang Le untied the Omnitrix bound to his hand, pulled out a data cable from the cracking machine, connected it to the Omnitrix, then put the Omnitrix down and returned to the operating table.

Yang Le slowly picked up the preservation device and said solemnly: "God bless, it must succeed."

After saying that, he inserted the storage device into the interface on the cracking machine and then pressed the start button heavily.

"Beep, beep!" Along with the sound, the cracking machine started working, and green photons poured into the Omnitrix along the data line.

As the cracking device was running, the Omnitrix began to transform. Yang Le, who was watching from the side, was sweating profusely, fearing that Azmis would be prepared and the Omnitrix would enter self-destruct mode, which would mean that all his efforts would fail.

However, it is obvious that although Azmis is extremely smart, it is impossible for him to be all-encompassing and take everything into consideration. If Azmis really had a plan that left nothing out, then Tian Xiaoban would not have triggered so many bugs.

Finally, in Yang Le's surprised eyes, the Omnitrix revealed its movement and the dial lit up with green light.

"User detected, Azmis, the highest authority holder."

The voice function of the Omnitrix sounded. It had been a long time since Yang Le heard this sound after he became familiar with the operation of the Omnitrix. At this time, this cold mechanical sound sounded like heavenly music to Yang Le.

"Change the highest authority holder to Yang Le."

Yang Le played the synthesized voice of Azmis that he had prepared in advance. Although the Omnitrix only recognized genes, Yang Le still prepared the synthesized voice just in case, for fear of failure.

"Yang Le has been detected as the current wearer of the Omnitrix. Are you sure you want to change the highest level of authority?"

"Yes, I'm sure."

"Received. Changing the highest authority now. Please wait."

"YES! YES!" Yang Le jumped up excitedly. He decided to make today a anniversary. Today will become a day more important than his birthday.

Just as Yang Le was dancing with joy, a burst of passionate drum beats suddenly sounded. It was his cell phone ringtone, Gwen's drum beat. He recorded it and made it his own cell phone ringtone. To be honest, cell phone ringtones can sometimes scare people, but Gwen was very happy when he knew it, so he kept using it.

"Gwen?" Yang Le took out his phone, glanced at the incoming call notification, and then answered the call. "What's wrong, Gwen?"

"Happy, have you seen Peter? Is he with you?" Gwen's voice was a little anxious, but also revealed a hint of anticipation. "Peter? He's not with me. I'm in the 'bathtub' now."

Bathtub is the code name of the base, which was thought up by Yang Le. He felt that a superhero's base should have a name, just like DC's Watchtower. He came up with this name while taking a bath. Yang Le thought it was very stylish and concealed, but Gwen had complained about this name more than once.

Yang Le asked, "What happened to Peter?"

"Peter's missing," Gwen said anxiously. "Aunt May said Peter left home early this morning, but it's already afternoon now. Aunt May and Uncle Ben are here, but Peter still hasn't shown up, and the phone call isn't working."

"Have you told Uncle George?" Yang Le glanced at the Omnitrix which was still changing permissions.

"I told you, my dad has already asked the patrol officers in charge of this area, and none of them have seen Peter. Now my dad has asked his colleagues to help look for him."

"Don't worry Gwen, Peter will be fine," Yang Le comforted Gwen. "How are Aunt May and Uncle Ben?"

"Aunt May isn't feeling well." Gwen's tone softened, but still filled with worry. "Uncle Ben has been trying to comfort her, but everyone can tell he's putting on a brave face."

"You know what, Happy? I was actually thinking of going out to find Peter myself."

"No, Gwen, you can't go." Yang Le hurriedly stopped Gwen. "Now that Peter has disappeared, if you disappear again, it will only cause more trouble."

"I know Harpy, that's why I called you." Gwen looked at Aunt May who was sitting weakly in the chair. "I know you will find Peter, right?"

"I will, Gwen, but..." Yang Le was just about to tell Gwen that the Omnitrix couldn't be used yet when he heard the cold electronic sound again.

"Omnitrix authority change completed. The current highest authority holder is Earthling Yang Le."

"But what? Happy, why are you silent?"

"It's nothing, Gwen. I just wanted to say something, but how are you going to repay me?" Yang Le felt that today must be his lucky day. Everything was just right. "How about the VIP seats at the Mary Janes concert?"

"Of course, I will reserve the best seat for you." Gwen was infected by Yang Le's confidence and smiled again.

"Then I'll have to look forward to it, my number one drummer."

After saying that, Yang Le hung up the phone and put on the Omnitrix again.

"Welcome, Yang Le, the owner of the highest authority. All permissions are now open to you."

"I'm glad to hear you say that, little one." Yang Le kissed the Omnitrix. "But that'll have to wait until later. I have to go save my friends now. Do you have any powerful alien heroes you're looking for?"

"Search for keywords and filter out the following aliens for you."

"I really love you, baby!"
