Chereads / OMNITRIX (DC) / Chapter 2 - CHAPTER 2

Chapter 2 - CHAPTER 2

With a crisp sound, the strap of the Omnitrix automatically opened and flew quickly towards Yuri's left wrist

Before Yuri could react, the watch automatically wore itself on his wristand couldn't be taken off.

"Isn't this the DC Universe? How could this thing exist?"

Everything that just happened was too bizarre, and Yuri still hasn't recovered from it.

He carefully pushed open the car door and walked down, looking towards the direction where the omnitrix fell, then looked around but found no suspicious signs.

Yuri fell into deep thought.

It has been two minutes since the omnitrix fell and shattered the glass, but Flash hasn't appeared here yet, which means that no one in Central City has seen the omnitrix. Otherwise, the news of "unidentified flying objects falling from the sky" would definitely attract Flash's attention.

With Flash's speed, he wouldn't even need a second to run from Central City to here.

Yuri returned to the car and looked down at the omnitrix on his left hand. He tried to press the activation button under the dial with his right hand.

A green light lit up from the center of the dial, and the mechanism below the dial popped out slightly, with a circular holographic touchscreen surrounding it.

The holographic touchscreen displayed black grids, and only ten of them were lit up, showing different avatars. In the lower right corner of the screen was the number "10".

Clicking on one of the avatars immediately produced a holographic projection in the center of the dial, showing a red-skinned giant with four hands and four eyes.

"Four Arms!" Yuri blurted out. He was too familiar with this look.

Clicking on the other nine avatars, all familiar faces appeared.

"Heatblast, XLR8, Diamondhead..."

"It's real!"

Yuri pinched his face hard to make sure he wasn't dreaming. He really have the omnitrix right now!

With this, his chances of surviving in this crisis-filled DC Universe have increased significantly.

The Omntrix can scan the DNA of different species and store it in its database, allowing the user to transform into that species and possess all of its abilities.

In addition, the Omnitrix, once worn, will bind to the user's DNA to prevent it from being taken by others. It also has a built-in universal translator that can decipher almost all species' languages.

It can also repair damaged DNA and optimize intact DNA, so that the database stores the best individuals of that species.

To give a simple analogy, when Yuri scans a Kryptonian, for example, the Omnitrix optimizes the Kryptonian genes. If the best individual among the Kryptonians is Superman, then when Yuri transforms into a Kryptonian, his Kryptonian physique is actually modeled after Superman, not the scanned ordinary Kryptonian.

The Omnitrix can not only record the DNA of new creatures, but its database actually already contains DNA data for millions of aliens. However, specific conditions are required to unlock the corresponding DNA.

In the Ben 10 universe, there are two generations of Omnitrixes.

The Omnitrix that Yuri obtained looks more like the first generation, but its functions are more like the second generation, so let's call it the third generation Omnitrix.

Although Yuri would love to try transforming, he has more important things to do now.

Because there is less than half an hour left for the milk delivery!

He's going to be late!

Yuri stepped on the gas pedal and drove his old car towards the city center.

Twenty-nine minutes later, he stopped in front of a chain supermarket.

Standing at the entrance was an obese woman in her fifties, Ms. Shelby, the warehouse manager of the supermarket.

In Yuri's previous life, he had delivered goods here several times, and each time he came to pick up the goods, it was Ms. Shelby.

"You're late, delivery guy. If you're thirty seconds late, it means you won't get even a penny of your pay."

After looking at the time, Ms. Shelby said with an expression that seemed like everyone owed her five million.

"But I'm not late, Ms. Shelby, so where's my pay?"

Yuri reached out his hand to her.

Upon hearing this, Ms. Shelby expressionlessly took out a ten-dollar bill and handed it to Yuri, then shouted towards the warehouse, "Terry! Jim! Come out and unload the goods, you two lazy bastards!"

Two twenty-year-old punk-looking guys in work clothes emerged from the warehouse, one with a nose ring and the other with three pairs of ear studs.

"Look at you guys, I can't believe I have nephews like you!"

"Look at your appearance. I can't believe I have nephews like you!" Mrs. Shelby's words fell on deaf ears as Terry, with the nose ring, went into the carriage and unloaded boxes of milk while Mrs. Shufen counted the goods.

Jim came to the side of the door and greeted Yuri, "Hey! Yuri, did you get robbed on the road with the hole in your windshield?"

"No, just a minor accident," Yuri replied casually. He didn't have a good impression of these two brothers.

Terry and Jim were well-known small hooligans on this street. Although they had not done anything too terrible, they were fond of gambling, womanizing, and smoking, often getting into trouble and being arrested several times.

Without their aunt Mrs. Shelby, who was the warehouse manager, these two brothers would never have found a job, although they had no intention of working seriously.

"Don't be so cold, buddy. I have something to tell you," Jim said quietly to Yuri after stealing a glance at his aunt and making sure she wasn't paying attention to them.

"I know you've been short of money all the time, and seeing you driving such a broken car, it's highly likely. The hole in your windshield is not small and can break anytime. Buying a new windshield isn't cheap..."

"Look at your skinny little body. How long has it been since you've had a full meal?"

The more Yuri listened, the more he felt that something was wrong. What was this guy trying to do?

"What do you want to say, Jim?" Yuri asked with a raised eyebrow. From the look of it, these two guys were planning to commit a crime and wanted to bring him into it.

Jim's eyes rolled around, this time not only stealing a glance at his aunt, but also looking around.

"Terry and I are planning on doing something big. We could make millions of dollars if we succeed! But we need help..."

Yuri raised an eyebrow. Judging from the situation, these two were planning to do something illegal, and they wanted him to join in.

They were even boasting about making millions in one shot. He didn't know much about Terry and Jim, but Yuri was certain that with their intelligence, they were either planning to kidnap or rob a bank.

Yuri couldn't help but applaud their boldness.

Do they even know where the hell they are right now? It's the territory of the Flash! For gods sake!

They are thinking of causing trouble in this area, do they think they're a gang of supervillains?

Do these insignificant small-timers really want to compete for the title of Flash's villain?
