Chapter 3 Secret Base
Yang Le stood on the rooftop beside the Alley, watching Tom leave.
"Well then, it's time for me to go home too." Watching the siren sounds coming from afar, and after confirming Tom was alright, Yang Le decided to end his patrol for tonight.
Transforming into Swampfire, Yang Le controlled his form, condensing his body into slender Vine, and like a python, he climbed down the wall from the rooftop.
Under the cover of darkness, Yang Le quietly climbed to a manhole cover, slightly lifted the cover to create a gap, and Yang Le slipped inside.
Once underground, Yang Le resumed his human form and began searching for the way back home.
"It's not the Ninja Turtles living in the Sewer of New York, it's me, Yang Le!" Daily self-entertainment had basically become Yang Le's habit. Being suddenly brought to this unfamiliar place by the Device that stored the Omnitrix, if he didn't find some amusement for himself, he felt he might become depressed.
"Living in the Sewer, now I've really become a Rat."
The Sewer was not complex, but because there were not many landmarks, it was easy to get lost. Yang Le also didn't dare to make marks, just in case someone found his Secret Base.
But Yang Le had been living here for a month, and plus his activity range was not large, he had explored the Sewers of the nearby blocks pretty thoroughly, so finding his way home was still very simple.
Soon Yang Le arrived in front of a Valve, Yang Le stepped forward and turned the Valve.
Three turns to the left, three turns to the right, and then pressed down hard. Accompanied by a "click" sound, the Valve opened, revealing a Camera.
Yang Le changed his form, aiming the Omnitrix Symbol on his chest at the Camera to scan.
After the scan was completed, accompanied by a "beep" sound, the wall beside the Valve slowly opened, revealing a Passage. After Yang Le walked in, the wall slowly closed again, everything returned to its original state, as if nothing had happened.
The Passage was not long, and the Metal Door at the end could be seen at a glance. Arriving at the door, it similarly accepted the scan from the Camera on the door, and then waited for the final door to open.
After the door opened with a "click" sound, Yang Le finally returned to his warm Little Home.
As Yang Le entered the Room, the Sensor Light turned on with a "snap", and the strong light illuminated the entire Room.
The Room was square, only about 100 square meters. The entire Room had no partitions to separate the Room. Yang Le simply roughly divided the Room into a Work Area and a Living Area.
The Living Area was very simple, a table with a Gas Stove on it, Utensils for one person, and a Sink in the corner, as well as a Hammock, and a Portable Toilet, which had been converted into a fixed type.
The Work Area was much richer than the Living Area, with several Screens, a Computer Case, and various other devices, and even a row of Soil Pots in which Plants were cultivated.
After returning home, Yang Le's Transformation time also ran out. A flash of White Light passed, and Yang Le transformed back into an ordinary Human.
Returning to his original form, Yang Le went to the Soil Pots in the Work Area at the first moment. What was cultivated there was his speculation. If the experiment was successful, his strength in Swampfire form would greatly increase.
Swampfire's Race, Mansaluo Immortal Grass, had the ability to control Plant growth, and could even modify Plants to a certain extent. So Yang Le wondered if he could cultivate new plants to make them more versatile.
"My little darlings, have you grown up well?" Yang Le tiptoed towards the Soil Pots, as if afraid of waking the parents of sleeping children. However, Yang Le was now just an ordinary Human and had no way to communicate with Plants.
The Plants in the Soil Pots were cultivated from ordinary Peas, but now they were completely unrecognizable. The stems were as thick as wrists, the leaves were thick, and the fist-sized pods were not oval-shaped, enclosing several Peas, but round, enclosing only one.
That's right, what Yang Le wanted to cultivate was the Pea Shooter. With the help of Swampfire's Ability, even without sunlight, Yang Le could make Plants grow. With this, Yang Le had already cultivated 8 generations of Pea Shooters.
In the 5th generation, the Pea Shooters could already launch Peas, but the power was very weak, and the range of the Peas was only about half a meter.
In the 7th generation, Yang Le reduced the size of the Peas and increased the strength of the pods, thereby increasing the range and power of the Peas, but the ammunition was still only one shot, and it was gone after shooting.
The 8th generation was similar to the 7th generation, and now it was already the 9th generation.
"It seems that without sunlight, even with Swampfire's Ability, Plants are still underdeveloped." After recording the growth of the Plants in his notebook, Yang Le came to the Screens.
These Screens and Computer Case were the Computer that Yang Le assembled himself. In addition to some basic functions, Yang Le also used it to connect to the Surveillance on the streets and also monitored the Police's Communication.
Of course, Yang Le himself did not have this ability. This was thanks to another Alien in the Little Broken Watch.
Yang Le turned on the Computer, and 5 Screens lit up at the same time, displaying different information. 3 were responsible for Surveillance, one was responsible for the Police, and the remaining one was for Yang Le's daily use.
"It's been a month since I came here. From the third day, after I discovered that this place had the Daily Bugle, I've been looking forward to Spider-Man's appearance. But a month has passed, and not to mention Spider-Man, I haven't even encountered a supervillain."
Yang Le used the Computer to watch the News. It had been a month since he was transported here. When Yang Le discovered the Daily Bugle and saw JJJ's face on the TV Program, which was 7.8 points similar to the one in the Movie, Yang Le felt that he had arrived in the Marvel Universe.
Afterwards, looking up some celebrities made it even more certain. For example, Captain America.
This iconic figure could even be found in history.
It's just that Yang Le couldn't be sure which Universe he was in now. After all, when in doubt in American comics, it's a Parallel Universe. The Parallel Universes of Marvel can be said to be as numerous as hairs, and the gaps between Universes are also very large. Only by determining the Universe could he set goals.
Yang Le had been paying attention to Stark Industries, but Stark hadn't had an accident yet, so there was no way to determine if it was the Movie Universe.
Although Yang Le had been collecting Information, he had never dared to reach out too far. After all, there were quite a few Special Organizations in the Marvel Universe. He was afraid that he would be discovered by someone if he was not careful.
If he provoked an organization like Hydra and they discovered that he had the Ability to transform, he was afraid that he would be immediately caught and taken back for Photon Skin Rejuvenation and Slice and Dice Research.
Just thinking about it gave Yang Le Goosebumps.
"Ribbit! Hydra wants to beat me to my knees and take me back to make Star Fury Power, right?"
Every time Yang Le played some Memes, he would feel lonely. Memes without anyone to comment on were better left unplayed.
"I wonder when Rat will be able to make friends..." Yang Le slumped weakly in his chair, only able to watch TV Program for comfort.
