The Comprehensive Evolution of American Comics

"Whoosh!"

With the crystal powder blown away, the unobstructed view wasn't limited to Thor; the audience outside could also see. Thus, everyone present witnessed this shocking scene.

Yang Le lifted Mjolnir!

This was enough to astonish all Asgardians, because Mjolnir couldn't be lifted by just anyone. This divine hammer had the ability to choose its wielder.

This was also why Thor confidently threw it out during battle. In his thousands of years of combat, no enemy had ever been able to lift Mjolnir. Anyone who tried to use it against him would suffer the consequences.

In battle, Thor's most trusted partner was Mjolnir; similarly, it was also his biggest blind spot.

Precisely because of this, when faced with Yang Le wielding Mjolnir, Thor's brain, which had stored thousands of years of combat experience, momentarily crashed. The next second, he made intimate contact with his possession in a different way.

"Bang!"

Since possessing Mjolnir, this was the first time Thor had made contact with it using his head, and it was also the first time he had felt the hammer's power.

Thor flew backward faster than he had come, crashing into the ground with a thud. He felt dizzy, and had a slight urge to vomit.

Supporting himself with his hand, Thor relied on his powerful physique to recover, but in battles of this level, even a single breath could become a weakness, let alone now.

Yang Le certainly wouldn't miss this opportunity. Before Thor could stand up, Yang Le had already arrived with Mjolnir, standing in front of Thor, pulling back his arms and swinging the hammer to give Thor another heavy blow.

Faced with this moment that could end the battle, the audience held their breath, not daring to make a sound. Some even forgot to breathe.

Thor's eyes widened as he reached out his right hand towards Mjolnir. This was the most effective resistance he could offer now, because he couldn't get up from the ground. Evading Yang Le's attack was impossible in this situation.

And defense was simply taking a beating. If he didn't retaliate even once, he would enter a vicious cycle. One wrong step could lead to many more, and Thor couldn't afford that.

Currently, the only option was to fight for control of Mjolnir. Thor was gambling that Yang Le hadn't truly gained the hammer's approval, because he didn't feel his power being diminished, and there were no special effects on Yang Le representing recognition.

"Buzz!"

Sure enough, Thor was right. Mjolnir, held in Yang Le's hand, began to tremble, as if trying to break free from Yang Le's control. This wasn't the behavior it should have shown after being acknowledged.

He didn't know what method Yang Le used to bypass the King of Gods' enchantment, but it was clear that, as he had guessed, Yang Le hadn't been recognized by Mjolnir. He was merely 'holding' the hammer.

"Tsk!"

Yang Le clicked his tongue in displeasure. He originally thought he could end the battle smoothly, but he didn't expect Thor, when forced into a desperate situation, to have such quick wit.

Now, Mjolnir was vibrating more and more violently in his hand. Holding it was no different than holding a burden, so Yang Le decisively chose to let go.

The released Mjolnir flew forward at a rapid speed, finally landing firmly in Thor's hand. As soon as the hammer returned to its owner, a thunderbolt descended from the sky.

"Boom!"

The thick lightning not only engulfed Thor, but also Yang Le, who was standing nearby. If he hadn't run fast, he would definitely have been caught in it.

Before the thunder could dissipate, Thor, once again holding Mjolnir, had transformed into a bolt of lightning and rushed in front of Yang Le. His speed was now several times faster than before.

"Crack! Bang!"

Two consecutive sounds rang out. First, a sound like shattering glass, followed by a sound like a striking bell.

At this moment, Mjolnir was hammering down on a transparent container filled with white energy. Surprisingly, despite appearing fragile like glass, Mjolnir couldn't leave even a scratch on it.

Faced with Thor's thunderous strike, Yang Le, in a hurry, could only transform his arms once again. This time, his hands became metal arms with two huge energy tanks, precisely Atomix's hands.

These were the strongest hands Yang Le could think of in a short time. In this crisis, he could only hope that the powerful body of a Prypiatosian-A could block this attack, giving him a chance for a counterattack.

Not trusting enough, Yang Le even erected a white nuclear energy shield in front of himself. The sound like shattering glass from before came from this.

Atomix didn't disappoint him. This metal-like body possessed toughness no less than Mjolnir. Even more commendable was that Prypiatosian-A's pain sensation was much weaker than other alien heroes.

Perhaps Atomix wasn't the alien hero with the highest defense, but in this emergency, Yang Le indeed thought of him first. After all, he was a veteran powerhouse in the Omnitrix, leaving a deeper impression on Yang Le than other aliens.

Taking a deep breath, the nuclear energy in Yang Le's atomic iron fists bubbled like boiling water, and a continuous stream of power surged from his body.

With the added power of Atomix, combined with the strength of the Asgardian, Yang Le exerted force with both hands, and even Thor was sent flying.

After spinning a few times in the air, Thor stabilized himself. Taking advantage of the advantageous position in the air, Thor once again raised Mjolnir high. The sky once again became covered with dark clouds, and a continuous stream of lightning fell from the sky, each one accurately pouring into Mjolnir.

Judging from the look of it, Thor wanted to determine the outcome with the next move. Yang Le also felt that the battle had been going on for too long, so he agreed with Thor's idea.

"Bang!"

Yang Le slammed his fists together in front of his chest, and the energy in his iron fists surged once again, looking as if it was about to pour out of the tanks.

The nuclear iron fists became brighter and brighter, even to the point of being dazzling. This represented that Yang Le had completed charging, and at this time, Thor had also completed his charge.

The next second, the two simultaneously left their positions. The hammer shining with lightning and the iron fist filled with nuclear energy were about to collide, when a faster and stronger light accurately landed between the two.

However, at this time, both of their attacks were unstoppable. No matter what landed in the middle, it would have to withstand the strongest attacks from Thor and Yang Le.
