Chapter 688: A Weapon with Myriad Transformations
In the Arena, Yang Le and Thor's arms intertwined back and forth, both of their fists accurately slamming into each other's faces. Following the clamor of the audience came the gale generated by the collision.
"Whoosh!"
First, there was the gale generated by the weapon collision, and then the gale generated by the fist collision. However, due to the speed being too fast, the two gales erupted almost simultaneously.
Immediately after, the two figures in the center of the Arena flew out backward at almost the same time, and a second later, they crashed into the wall on the left and right sides of the Arena respectively, followed by a tremor that shook the mountain.
This Arena, built specifically to facilitate superhuman battles, actually experienced such a large tremor. This was the first time many Asgardians had ever seen such a thing.
However, no one felt afraid. After a brief silence, thunderous cheers rang out once again. This is the Asgardian way. They would not be afraid of such a small matter, and they never begrudge their cheers for the powerful being.
"Go, Thor!"
"Another champion, don't hold back!"
"This is the battle that Asgardians pursue throughout their lives! This is the true battle!"
Ignoring the already frenzied audience, the two people on the field were not the kind to fall after taking a single attack. The two weapons flying into the sky were the best proof of this.
Mjolnir, enveloped in lightning, fell from the air like a meteorite, smashing a huge hole in the smoke and dust that filled the sky. As a thunderclap landed, the smoke and dust filling the sky was dispersed, and Thor's figure stood within it, hammer in hand.
"Boom!"
The drum sound came, and the smoke and dust enveloping Yang Le was dispersed by the gale, revealing his figure drawing a bow and arrow.
The atmosphere was distorted, and the hurricane sweeping across the Arena was grasped in Yang Le's hand, becoming the best bow. The scattered sand soil became a constant supply of ammunition.
Releasing the hand pulling the string, several arrows composed of sand flew towards the well-prepared Thor like arrows released from a bow. The latter knew just by listening that these arrows were definitely not just for show.
Gripping the strap of the hammer handle, Thor swung Mjolnir in his hand with great force. When the danger approached to a certain distance, he smashed down at the arrows.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!"
The rotating hammer became Thor's shield, shattering all the arrows shot by Yang Le. But Thor knew in his heart that these were just feint attacks, and the real killer move was yet to come.
Sure enough, by the time Thor had dealt with the arrows, Yang Le, holding a short spear in his hand, had already descended from the sky. The sharp spear tip magnified in Thor's eyes, and it looked like he had already broken into Thor's safety distance.
In a flash of electric light, Thor's free left hand suddenly grabbed towards the thrusting short spear. Blue and white lightning crackled and bloomed in his hand. Before the short spear could pierce him, Thor stopped Yang Le's killer move.
The situation changed in an instant. With his left hand restraining Yang Le, Thor swung Mjolnir held in his right hand. The target was Yang Le's temple. If this blow landed solidly, even if Yang Le didn't die, he would get an infant-like sleep.
Obviously, neither outcome was acceptable to Yang Le, so he chose to create a third answer himself.
Yang Le was holding the spear shaft with both hands. As his left hand, positioned behind, pulled back sharply, the originally solid short spear was actually pulled apart from the middle, broken as easily as tearing dough.
Not having time to think too much, Yang Le raised the short rod in his left hand to block the inevitable path of Thor's hammer. With a muffled clang, Yang Le narrowly blocked Thor's counterattack.
The sudden separation of the weapon was indeed beyond Thor's expectations, but it was not enough to make him, who possessed thousands of years of battle experience, react much. It was just that the weapon was a bit strange.
"Ha!"
With an angry shout, thunder power surged from Thor's body. Feeling the numbness in his arm, Yang Le had to withdraw and retreat. Although Thor didn't want to let Yang Le leave, the spear tip he held in his hand suddenly became as slippery as a loach, impossible to hold onto.
By the time Yang Le landed again and stood firm, Thor could clearly see that the weapon in his hand had completely changed its form. The original short spear had become a short rod in one hand and golden liquid in the other.
"It seems your weapon's forms might be more numerous than I thought," Thor said, moving his body as he spoke, easing the scratch he had received in the close combat just now. Although it wasn't serious, sometimes even a minor injury could become the key to deciding victory or defeat.
Thor, who had been entangled with Loki for thousands of years, had already engraved caution in his heart.
Yang Le didn't speak. With his movement, the short rod in his left hand also turned into a mass of liquid. Then, with a sudden flick, the two masses of liquid in his left and right hand transformed into short swords.
"You're right, versatility is indeed the characteristic of As-You-Wish."
As-You-Wish, as the name suggests, the weapon's highlight is its obedience. It can change its appearance according to the master's needs, because Yang Le, who uses it, is a person with many transformations.
Different Ben 10 aliens are accustomed to using different weapons. You can't possibly have **Grey Matter** carry a short spear that's about 1.8 meters long to poke people, you know, that short spear would be as tall as four or five **Grey Matters**.
So, when Yang Le first forged the weapon, he set a goal: to make this weapon usable by all Ben 10 aliens. After all, the original purpose of a weapon is to enhance the user. If it can't enhance and instead becomes a burden, that would be too ridiculous.
In this way, the function of being able to change form at will naturally became the first choice. Therefore, Yang Le naturally incorporated the nanocrystalline robot technology that constitutes **Upgrade** into it, except that he upgraded the shell of the nanite robots.
With N Metal from DC and Uru Metal native to Marvel, the combination of the two became the raw materials that now constitute As-You-Wish, a special alloy that Yang Le had not yet had time to name.
Relying on **Grey Matter's** wisdom and Valeria's help, Yang Le made this alloy perfectly inherit the characteristics of both metals, both the enhancement for the holder and strong magic adaptability.
As a result, combining magic and technology, Yang Le's greatest masterpiece that he could currently produce was born.
"Fair warning, Thor," Yang Le said, twirling the short swords in both hands in a flourish. "The functions of As-You-Wish are far more than just these. Don't be frightened when we fight later."
"Words are useless, my friend," Lightning flared up on Thor's body once more. "Having many kinds of weapons is useless. It's far better to hone one to perfection. No matter how many changes you have, I will break them all with one hammer!"
