The Comprehensive Evolution of American Comics.

Chapter 526 Conversation
Before the smoke and dust had dispersed, Frank had already seen a white light source flowing continuously in the smoke. Then a metal hand stretched out and swung to the right, and the smoke immediately dissipated.

In front of Frank, an unknown creature with most of its body covered with metal, with only the top of its head, chest and wrists being transparent parts, and white energy flowing inside, stood in front of him so openly. It was Yang Le who had turned into the Proto-King Kong.

Speaking of it, Atomic Power is obviously one of the three officially certified alien heroes, but his appearance rate in Yang Le's place is indeed not very high. The reason is that his weakness is too fatal.

Don't get me wrong, Yang Le is not talking about the endurance problem, but the problem of confidence collapse after the energy is exhausted. Before the energy is used up, the Proto-Kings are a very confident race, but once the energy is scarce they will immediately suffer from the number one disease on the Internet - Jade Syndrome.

In this state, Atomic Power is no different from a lamb to be slaughtered. Basically, he doesn't fight back when being beaten or retaliated when being scolded. This led to the fact that before the energy problem was solved, in the American comic universe where there were gods everywhere, Yang Le always used Atomic Power to play low-end games.

There's no way. There are very few glass cannon-like gods in American comics. They are all top-notch high-defense and high-blood cows, and can be easily killed. But Frank in front of him is different. It is written in the setting that the Lantern needs to be charged.

Yang Le had finally caught the opportunity. He had finally found a character who was quite powerful but consumed more energy than himself. Now he had to strike hard at the lower position.

"Get out of here!" Frank roared. If it weren't for the energy shortage, Frank, who had turned into a red lantern demon, would even want to skip the communication step. However, in order to avoid any trouble when killing Ross, he could only pick up his limited patience.

"Hey! Frank." Who would have thought that Yang Le ignored Frank and just talked to himself.

"Your days of constantly harassing Hong Wen are over. Give me the Lantern Ring!"

Although he didn't understand how this metal monster in front of him knew his name, but after hearing the word "lantern ring", Frank understood that the man in front of him was most likely the original owner of the lantern ring, or at least a related person.

Frank opened his mouth wide, revealing his white shark fangs, and said, "Come and get it yourself if you can!"

Although the words were different, the meaning was the same. It was a pleasant surprise, but it was a pity that it was of no use.

"I saved you before, and this is how you treat your savior?" Yang Le tapped the Omnitrix logo on his belt.

Frank recognized the symbol and asked suspiciously, "Are you the guy with the four arms and limbs from before? But why did you change your appearance?"

"This is my ability." Yang Le spread his hands and demonstrated his transformation in front of Frank. He turned into the Ultimate Four-Handed Overlord, and then turned back into the Power Kong. Only then did Frank believe what Yang Le said.

As for why Yang Le didn't directly become the Ultimate Four-Handed Overlord, it was mainly because he was afraid that Frank would attack him indiscriminately. The Red Lantern Demon's inextinguishable flame was still difficult for the Four-Handed Overlord to deal with.

"Although you saved me before, unfortunately I still can't return the ring to you." Frank's attitude changed, but because of the influence of the red ring, he still spoke indignantly, but Yang Le knew that he was very friendly now.

"I can guess." Yang Le nodded. "The power of the Lantern Rings comes from the emotional spectrum, and the Red Lantern Ring's power comes from anger within that spectrum. This makes it one of the most powerful Lantern Rings, and its combat capabilities are top-notch. Being chosen by it proves you've experienced something truly terrifying."

"My family, the families of the forty-two experimental subjects, they are all dead!" Frank said gritting his teeth.

"Those high-ranking figures are afraid of being exposed, so they're trying to eliminate the family members who know a little bit before dealing with the experimental subjects. I can't let those worse than pigs and dogs go! I'll make them pay with blood!" "That's a very good reason." Yang Le touched his chin. "I don't think I have any reason to stop you, but I want to tell you the disadvantages of the Red Lantern Ring first. I hope you'll make a judgment after listening."

"I'd like to hear more about it." Frank controlled his temper and pretended to listen attentively.

"Although the power of the Lantern Ring, especially the Red Lantern Ring, is strong, it requires energy to drive it. Your anger is not enough to replenish this energy. Once the energy is exhausted, you will die."

Yang Le put the cold reality in front of Frank, but the latter did not waver at all.

"After killing my enemies, I can reunite with my family." Frank grinned. "I like this fairy-tale happy ending!"

"You're not suitable for telling bedtime stories to children." Yang Le rolled his eyes. "Tell me, who is your enemy?"

"General Ross," Frank said coldly. "I found his lackey and forced him to reveal his identity before I killed him."

It really was that old dog. Yang Le didn't realize it at all. In Frank's surprised eyes, Yang Le turned back into a human being.

"If it's that old dog, I think I can help a little." Yang Le said as he took out a mobile phone and started operating it. After about a minute, he threw the phone back to Frank.

"Ross's location is marked on it. You can go directly to him, saving you some time and energy."

This phone was exactly the one that his DC Universe self had sent him before. Yang Le uploaded all the data inside to the cloud storage he built with the Shapeshifter, and then deleted all the data before giving it to Frank.

"Thank you." Frank's angry face showed other emotions for the first time. "I don't know how a dead man like me can thank you."

"Just try to stay alive and bring the ring back to me." Yang Le waved his hand to show that he didn't care. Frank didn't say anything else. After confirming Ross's location, he turned the car around and started riding towards New York.

Looking at Frank walking further and further away, Yang Le sighed. He didn't know if it was because of the destined day he had talked about with Yongheng before, but Frank still couldn't escape the fate of his family being broken up in this universe.

For this reason, Yang Le felt both sympathy and guilt towards Frank. He sympathized with his experience and felt guilty that all this happened because he was unable to stop the energy explosion.

But soon Yang Le felt relieved. There was no need for him to take all the blame on himself. It was all done by that old dog Ross. He did not take back the red lantern ring, which allowed Frank to have the power of revenge. He was even more kind-hearted than the master.

Although he said he would not accept the ring, Yang Le would not actually leave Frank alone and let him damage the ring. It was just that Yang Le now had a better idea.
