The Comprehensive Evolution of American Comics

It has to be said that many of the alien heroes' abilities were never realized in Ben Tennyson's hands. The most typical examples are Crystal Fist, who was singled out by Diamondhead, and Snare-oh, who Ben himself admitted had so many skills that he didn't know what to do with them.

There's no way around it. After all, there are just too many alien heroes in the Omnitrix. Even the smartest person would find it difficult to master all of them. Other Omnitrix wearers in the multiverse also only pick the ones they like to use. Ben is already one of the few who can play around with every alien hero.

Of course, being able to play around with them doesn't mean he plays them well. As the only designated blockhead in the Ben 10 universe, Ben Tennyson's forte is turning everything into a fighter. Even with fragile spellcasters, Ben likes to go up and deliver a couple of elephant kicks.

This leads to Ben often feeling restricted when using most of the magic-type alien heroes, which is why he doesn't like magic-based characters. Grey Matter is the best spellcaster he plays.

Swampfire, who is jokingly called an all-rounder by fans, is naturally one of Ben's favorite heroes. It's just a pity that Yang Le finds Ben's development of him to be very superficial.

For example, the Pea Shooter is something Yang Le developed based on Swampfire's unreasonable ability to stimulate plant growth. After all, plants stimulated by Swampfire completely lose their original appearance after growing. It's more like evolution or mutation than growth.

Just like now, Yang Le has developed an ability similar to the Flower-Flower Fruit from One Piece based on Swampfire's ability to freely reorganize himself. Although it's not as strong, it's good enough.

Yang Le is now like a submarine, lurking in the ground. The small flowers on the ground are his periscopes. With an unobstructed view, Yang Le advances at full speed and quickly sees a high wall. The wall is surrounded by a circle of electric wire, and there are even sentry towers inside, making it look like a good place to imprison people.

Diving deeper and bypassing the foundation of the wall, Yang Le easily arrives inside the wall. The inside of the wall is more crowded than the empty outside. In addition to the sentry towers, there are also many fully armed people patrolling, and even some armored vehicles.

Approaching the patrolling personnel, Yang Le eavesdrops unscrupulously with the help of his periscopes. Who would notice a wildflower that can be seen everywhere?

"Be alert," Soldier A said. "It's almost time to change shifts. Don't let the captain find you slacking off."

Soldier B responded weakly, "I really don't know what important things there are in this remote mountain forest that require the army to guard."

"Shut up!" Soldier A warned in a low voice. "This is not something we can inquire about. You should know that so-called suicides by shooting in the back are never rumors."

A moment of silence followed. Obviously, his companion also realized the seriousness of the problem. Approaching the shift change, both of them stood at their posts honestly.

Although it was only a few short sentences, Yang Le didn't feel disappointed because these few sentences already contained a lot of information.

First, the security personnel stationed here are not mercenaries who will do anything for money, but military troops. This is very thought-provoking. Being able to mobilize such a large number of troops, the mastermind behind the scenes must have considerable energy, maybe it's an order from the government.

Second, this army, at least the lower-level soldiers, don't know what they are guarding. The common saying is the so-called secret mission, which is what that legendary agent who likes to climb into women's beds likes to do most.

Sounds cool, doesn't it? But the insiders don't think so because no one likes secrets that can be linked to the military. You might not even know how you died. If you're lucky, you'll be killed by the enemy. If you're unlucky...

Combining these two points, the identity of the mastermind behind the scenes becomes even more intriguing.

In Yang Le's eyes, this army is basically synonymous with a suicide squad, a group of pitiful people.

Since that's the case, let's solve it with a slightly gentler method.

Having made up his mind, Yang Le immediately activated his ability and began to send the seeds he modified to the entire base, including those reinforced concrete buildings.

You should know that in nature, ordinary plants can use their own power to break through solid concrete. The seeds that Yang Le has strengthened with his own ability are something these buildings cannot stop.

While Yang Le was activating his ability, Scott contacted him.

"How is it, Harpy?" Scott's worried voice came. He was very afraid of losing contact with a companion again, which might drive him crazy.

"I've successfully sneaked in," Yang Le's voice sounded muffled because he was underground. "I'll find a way to let you in soon. Wait for my good news."

"Roger, be careful," Scott instructed again before hanging up the communication.

Yang Le slowly exhaled. While chatting with Scott, he had already planted enough seeds in this base. Next is the time for him to show his power.

"What's that!" Soldier A noticed that something was drilling out of the soil in the open space not far from him. He subconsciously tightened the gun in his hand and reminded his companion.

Soldier B also noticed the abnormality and quickly aimed his gun at the open space not far away. Soon, a strange plant with fiery red flower buds drilled out of the soil and appeared delicately in front of them.

However, the soldiers were not careless. There are many superhumans in this world, and they have seen a lot of strange abilities online. A flower can't let them relax their vigilance, but it's not enough to make a fuss. What if it's really just a flower?

The newest novel is first published on Liǔ 9 Shū Bā!

So, it is necessary to investigate before drawing a conclusion. The two of them approached the flower slowly, as if they had discussed it in advance. Soldier B, who was behind, stopped after taking a few steps. He also had to watch the post behind him to prevent anyone from sneaking in. The reason for moving a few steps was to take care of Soldier A in front. His current position could take care of both the front and the back.

Soldier A quickly walked to the flower. He reached out with the gun in his hand and poked the flower bud a few times with the barrel. It was soft and tough, like a wildflower that can be seen everywhere, nothing special.

Suddenly! The flower bud burst open, revealing the yellow stamens inside. A burst of tan powder sprayed out from it, directly covering Soldier A's face. Before he could react, with a burst of dizziness, Soldier A fell to the ground. Soldier B behind him was not spared. Although he was far away from the flower in front, there was also an identical flower blooming quietly not far behind him.

Not only around them, but this kind of flower was constantly blooming in the base, and even indoors were not spared. The scene of people falling was also constantly being staged.

The tan powder, with the night breeze, sprinkled on every part of the base. In an instant, everyone in the base fell to the ground.

This is also one of Swampfire's abilities, the sleep spores residing in his body. Yang Le grafted it into the seeds in his body and cultivated this flower that can release sleep spores.
