Chapter 2 - Chapter 2: Pursued by Vilgax!

Xiao Chen's breath quickened as he gazed at the Omnitrix, his right hand reaching out towards it.

Whoosh!!

The Omnitrix sprang open, leaping high off the ground like a sentient being, and landed squarely on Xiao Chen's wrist.

A cool, peculiar sensation spread from his wrist as the Omnitrix wrapped around it, sticking as if glued!

"Is it really stuck on?"

Xiao Chen couldn't help but wave his right hand, but the Omnitrix, or "this little gadget," as he called it, didn't budge an inch. It was securely fastened, yet his wrist felt no discomfort!

"Whew!"

Xiao Chen took a deep breath and gently pressed the screen of the gadget.

With a strange sound effect, the screen popped up, displaying an alien silhouette!

Xiao Chen pinched the screen with his fingers and gently rotated it to the side.

The silhouette instantly changed, transforming into another alien!

To be honest, as a Ben 10 fan, seeing the aliens on the gadget in person, he felt an urge to transform into an alien hero!

"I can't waste the gadget's power frivolously. Better save it for a real emergency."

Suppressing his excitement, Xiao Chen glanced into the distance. "I can't keep Grandpa Max waiting too long."

Without pausing, he jogged back towards where the old RV was parked.

Beyond Earth!!

A massive spaceship loomed in the galaxy, like a cosmic behemoth!

Inside the hall!

A fearsome octopus-like creature, even with its body partially destroyed, exuded a powerful aura like that of a king. It spoke angrily, "The Omnitrix has landed on Earth! Deploy the robots immediately to search for the Omnitrix's crash site!"

"Yes, Lord Vilgax!"

The nearby robots responded with utmost respect, not daring to show any defiance, even to the heavily injured Vilgax!

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

The spaceship deployed three small robots and one large robot, sending them flying towards Earth's atmosphere!!

"If I can't get the Omnitrix... I'll just send more forces! The Omnitrix must be mine!"

...

"Grandpa!"

When Xiao Chen returned to the campsite, the campfire was already blazing, with Ben and Gwen sitting on chairs at either side.

"Xiao Chen."

Grandpa Max stepped out of the old RV, holding a bowl filled with wriggling, maggot-like things!

Seeing this made Xiao Chen's scalp tingle!

Max glanced at the Omnitrix on Xiao Chen's wrist, puzzled. "Where did you get that watch? You weren't wearing it before."

"Wow, that's a cool watch! Where did you buy it?" Ben also noticed the Omnitrix, unable to take his eyes off it.

"Well, you might not believe this..."

Xiao Chen raised his wrist, showing the Omnitrix, with a helpless expression. "I found this watch in the forest. It jumped onto my wrist on its own, and now I can't take it off!"

"A watch that can't be removed? Really?" Gwen looked skeptical, this was beyond her understanding.

Hearing this, Max and Ben came over.

Ben tentatively grabbed the edge of the Omnitrix and pulled hard!

His face turned red, his hand hurt from pulling, yet the Omnitrix wouldn't budge!

Grandpa Max also tried pulling it off, but to no avail.

"You see, I'm not lying. It really won't come off." Xiao Chen shrugged at the two, who were panting from their efforts.

"A watch that can't be removed!"

Gwen finally believed it, staring at the Omnitrix in astonishment.

"This watch is so cool! It must be some kind of high-tech device!" Ben exclaimed excitedly.

"Speaking of which, when I found this watch, it was in a crater. It just jumped onto my hand, and I can't take it off!" Xiao Chen feigned a look of recollection as he spoke.

"A crater?!"

Max, Ben, and the others exchanged glances, their faces full of curiosity!

"Let's go, show us!! It might really be 'high-tech'!" Max suddenly thought of a possibility, looking at the skyline marked by the spacecraft, he said seriously.

"Follow me."

Xiao Chen readily agreed, leading Grandpa Max, Ben, and the others to the crater where the spacecraft had crashed!

When they saw the wreckage of the spacecraft in the crater with their own eyes.

Ben looked amazed, "This is so cool, it looks just like a UFO!!"

"So according to you, there was an alien in that UFO~ But it's just a watch." Gwen's pretty face showed skepticism, habitually contradicting Ben.

"She actually guessed right..."

Listening to their conversation, Xiao Chen couldn't help but twitch his mouth.

"You three, stay put up here and don't move, I'll take a look!" Grandpa Max instructed Xiao Chen and the others, then jumped into the crater to examine the spacecraft wreckage.

But he didn't notice.

The ground beside him was gradually crumbling!

"Wait, something's happening?!" Xiao Chen suddenly became alert, shielding Gwen with his left hand and gently pushing Ben behind him, his eyes focused on the distance!

The ground seemed to have a slight tremor!

"What's going on?" Ben looked puzzled, just about to speak when his pupils suddenly contracted!

Because.

In the distant forest!

A gigantic robot, towering over the trees, was slowly making its way towards them!!

It was the kind of monstrous robot you'd only see in sci-fi movies!

"Everyone, run!!"
