#642 - Race against time

Yang Le would definitely have bought the exquisite headdress if he had seen it in a souvenir shop at the airport, but now it was sitting on his enemy's head, and the opponent was clearly gaining some kind of power after putting it on.

Yang Le wasn't stupid; he wouldn't just stand by and watch his enemy unleash some newly acquired unknown ability. Now, the last resort was to take her out before she could use that ability.

The moment he made up his mind, a bulge appeared in the center of Yang Le's massive chest. At the same time as the bulge appeared, his body, as tall as a building, began to collapse, like a deflating bouncy castle.

The bulge in the center of his chest kept extending outwards, gradually turning into a normal-sized human figure. It turned out that Yang Le had deliberately returned to his normal size to avoid being hit by the opponent.

The smaller the target, the harder it is to hit; that's common sense. Moreover, in this form, Yang Le's speed was indeed faster. With so many advantages, there was no reason for Yang Le not to change back.

As his body transformed to a normal size, Yang Le's speed also gradually increased. Once the burden behind him completely disappeared, Yang Le's speed broke the sound barrier.

"Bang!"

That was the sound of breaking the sound barrier. In the blink of an eye, Yang Le had already rushed in front of Black Mamba. The latter didn't have time to react at all; Yang Le's speed was too fast. In her perspective, everything around her was still.

Just as Yang Le's hand was about to touch the headdress on Black Mamba's head, the snake-shaped headdress, which should have been an inanimate object, suddenly raised its head. The thing had actually come to life.

A dead object suddenly gaining life could even serve as the main plot of a horror novel, but that couldn't scare Yang Le. If he got angry, he would kick even Mephisto a couple of times.

However, magical items mostly have unreasonable abilities. Although the Martian's body wasn't afraid of toxins and germs, he couldn't do anything about curses, which are invisible and intangible.

It was a mismatch of expertise. Martian Hunter was indeed one of Yang Le's most versatile alien heroes. Transforming into him could solve 99% of the problems, but unfortunately, magic was in that 1% that he wasn't good at solving.

That is to say, Yang Le now had two choices: one, continue the previous action, like a reckless man, ignoring the obviously dangerous headdress. If nothing was triggered, then everyone would be happy. But if some curse was triggered, he might fall into an unfavorable situation.

Two, stop touching the headdress and retreat to a safe distance before transforming into another alien hero who could deal with the situation at hand. The disadvantage was that he would waste the hard-earned advantage, and the opponent might release that unknown ability.

It sounds like neither option is very good, right? But sometimes you have to give up something. However, Yang Le didn't think so. As the wearer of the Omnitrix, he had the ability to choose to have everything in most cases.

"Crackle!"

In the extreme speed that ordinary people couldn't see, Yang Le, who had transformed into Martian Hunter, burst out a ball of purple electricity from his outstretched right hand. These currents spread from Yang Le's fingers, taking away an inch of Yang Le's flesh for every inch they spread.

The flesh taken away by the electricity turned into fly ash. Gradually, Yang Le's forearm completely disappeared before his elbow. Strangely, the cross-section of Yang Le's severed arm wasn't muscle tissue, but a purple hole that constantly released electricity outwards.

"Crackling!"

Another burst of electricity sounded, and suddenly a flat beast foot with sharp claws stretched out from the hole, looking like the front leg of some kind of turtle, but structurally it looked somewhat similar to a human hand.

That was the hand of Celestialsapiens, the dimensional demon clone that Yang Le had left behind as a precaution, specifically for wiping his ass. Obviously, it was more appropriate to let the dimensional demon clone from the magic side handle this magical item.

Generally speaking, dimensional demons cannot directly interfere with or observe a universe. Of course, it's still simpler compared to fallen old gods like Set, and OBA, the other side of the creator.

Dimensional demons can choose their messengers. With the help of the messengers, dimensional demons can have a greater interference in a universe, unlike Set, who can only rely on magical artifacts, or OBA, who is simply locked out.

And because Yang Le and Celestialsapiens are actually the same person, Celestialsapiens can do more things with Yang Le as the anchor point than those messengers.

For example, opening a teleportation hole from Yang Le's body and sticking his hand out, just like he's doing now.

In fact, because Yang Le is on good terms with Eternity, as long as he tells Eternity, Celestialsapiens can descend into any universe. However, dimensional demons are complete in their own dimensions, so Celestialsapiens generally doesn't leave his dimension at will.

By the way, although Celestialsapiens opened up a dimension of his own, he wasn't considered an orthodox dimensional demon at first. It wasn't until Eternity recognized his orthodoxy that he officially took office.

Now Celestialsapiens's domain has also become a very suitable dimension for magic, which indirectly led to a large increase in Celestialsapiens's strength.

Because of this, Celestialsapiens himself also had the idea of competing with Set. He wanted to see if the first fallen old god had the same resounding strength as his name.

"Ding!"

The moment Celestialsapiens's claws touched Black Mamba's headdress, an inconspicuous black spot appeared on the snake's head of the headdress. The next second, this black spot began to expand rapidly. By the time Yang Le came back to his senses, the black spot had turned into a black hole as tall as a person.

The black hole was like a pre-prepared trap, waiting for Yang Le to take the initiative to jump in. Just as Yang Le was about to stop, the black hole rushed over like a ferocious beast waiting to devour someone, and swallowed Yang Le in one gulp.

"Boom!"

By the time Black Mamba came back to her senses, there was no Martian in front of her. Only the storm formed by the compressed air was hitting her body.

Black Mamba, unable to resist, was blown away by the storm, and her body flew backwards uncontrollably, about to hit a collapsed concrete slab.

"Ding!"

A golden sphere of light covered her, forcibly stopping Black Mamba from flying backwards in the air. The girl looked up and found that her leader, King Cobra, had used the Seven-Headed Serpent Staff to help her.

"Thank you, leader," Black Mamba said after landing. King Cobra waved his hand, indicating that she didn't need to mind. He looked around and said with a smile.

"It seems that the great god Set has helped us clear the obstacles."
