Zombie Marvel? Luckily, I'm Superman!

Just as Lin Yi was about to appear and scan the area with his super perception, a red light suddenly appeared, followed by two black mists that appeared in the place.

Here they come! Lin Yi's heart skipped a beat. Had he really caught him lying in wait?

These two black mists are exactly the same as the previous Zhiguang Clan, so they should be of the same race.

But what were they doing? Lin Yi didn't show himself, but silently watched as they took out a device and scanned the area.

Before long, they looked at the instruments in their hands and seemed to begin communicating.

Lin Yi did not see the blue light flashing on the monitor of the Zhiguang Clan A.

[Analysis complete. The battlefield data matches the last encounter record uploaded by mission unit AE7602 with a 99.6% accuracy rate in combat parameters and individual target characteristics. The information's authenticity has been verified.]

[It has been confirmed that the target individual, "Human Lin Yi," is a significant unknown variable. His/her complex and unique structure, coupled with a high degree of randomness in his/her behavioral logic, increases the probability of task failure by 18.61%, posing an unpredictable disruption to the integration protocol and representing an extremely high risk.]

[Proposal: Initiate a "source tracing protocol" for the target individual "human Lin Yi."]

[In response, initiating the source tracing at this stage is too costly, and we only have stable connections to two hub keys. Forcing activation could trigger resonant disturbances in the cosmic framework, accelerating local structural collapse. According to the agreement, we need at least five hubs to be synchronized for safe repair operations.]

The suggestion was rejected by the Zhiguang Clan B next to him, but Zhiguang Clan A did not give up. Instead, he remained silent for a moment and then spoke up again.

[The proposed correction does not initiate a comprehensive source tracing process, but only targets the individual Lin Yi.]

The monitor of the Zhiguang Clan B also started flashing.

[Calculation in progress... Evaluation complete. The impact on the agreement is only 3.72%. Compared to the probability of task failure caused by the existence of "individual Lin Yi", this tracing method is feasible.]

[Analysis shows that the earlier the source tracing, the lower the impact. Application generation in progress... Source tracing application is being submitted. Target: Individual "Human Lin Yi" feature code has been attached.]

[...Application approved, authorization code issued, limited individual tracing to commence, estimated time: 1.7 standard cosmic seconds, countdown begins.]

……

Lin Yi didn't hear any of this exchange; all he could see were two black mists standing motionless for a long time.

After waiting a while longer, Lin Yi frowned. Since he didn't know what they were doing, he might as well grab them and ask them. He had originally thought they would do something after arriving, but instead they were just wasting time standing around in a daze?

A portal appeared, opening a passage connecting the dark dimension to the real universe.

Lin Yi took a step forward, rolled up his sleeves, and prepared to make his move. Just then, a white light flashed before his eyes.

Lin Yi felt a moment of confusion, then the surrounding light suddenly changed, and a sound followed.

Human voices, car engine noises, street music, and even the blinding sunlight streaming down.

This sudden scene left Lin Yi stunned for a moment.

He is currently suspended in mid-air, more than ten meters above the ground.

Below is a wide street with slow-moving traffic, pedestrians filling the sidewalks, and tall buildings on both sides.

Lin Yi scratched his head, looking completely bewildered.

Something's wrong! Did the portal open incorrectly? Where did we end up? Looking at the buildings below and the clearly foreign faces, did we accidentally open a portal back to Earth?

Isn't this just being cowardly...? Where did Stark Tower go?

Lin Yi looked around but strangely couldn't find the landmark building.

Meanwhile, the street beneath their feet was already showing signs of congestion due to the sudden appearance of this "flying man".

Pedestrians stopped in their tracks, looked up in astonishment, and many raised their phones to take pictures of him.

"What's that? Superman? How can he fly?"

"It's not some kind of holographic projection or street magic trick, is it?"

"It shouldn't be Superman; judging by his face, he seems to be of East Asian descent?"

"I didn't see any wires either? Could there really be superpowered people in this world?"

The chaotic murmurs drifted into Lin Yi's ears.

Lin Yi frowned and looked away, vaguely sensing that something was off about the crowd's reaction.

At this moment on Earth, it should have been shortly after the Grandmaster announced his withdrawal from the competition. The world should be in a state of celebration and restoration of order. After all, the Grandmaster's cosmic survival competition had caused quite a stir.

And these people... Lin Yi glanced at them strangely, as if they had never seen a superpowered person before.

and many more!

Lin Yi's pupils suddenly contracted, as if he had thought of something.

With super-sensory perception fully activated, vision and hearing were also instantly unleashed.

An impossible idea arose in his mind, but rational thinking judged it to be a very high probability!

My heart was pounding so hard for the first time in over five years!

Super Vision captured many scenes.

What did he see?! In the middle of the street stood a sign, buried deep in his memory yet strangely familiar! A petal-shaped phone?!

And what's that in the huge shop window on the other side of the mall?! It's the logo of some kind of fruit with a bite taken out of it!

These two brands do not exist in the Marvel Universe he traveled through; only brands with similar forms exist!

"Holy crap!" Lin Yi exclaimed. "No way, could it really be...?"

He quickly focused his gaze and hearing on the east; he needed to verify it, now, immediately!

Just then, a faint cry for help, trembling and choked with sobs, reached my ears.

The reason Lin Yi noticed it was because the cry for help was made in a Chinese dialect that he was extremely familiar with!

"I...I really have no money left...You should go find someone else..."

Lin Yi was now eager to verify his idea, but if it was true, he couldn't ignore the cry for help from a fellow countryman echoing in this foreign land! Moreover, verifying it from a fellow countryman seemed even more convenient?

In an instant, a multitude of thoughts popped into his head, and Lin Yi's super vision immediately scanned the area following the sound.

In the depths of a dimly lit alley, a young girl who looks to be in her early twenties (not the female lead, just a random NPC who won't appear in many chapters)

She leaned against the cold brick wall, holding a cell phone tightly in both hands, her body trembling slightly with fear.

Across from her, three homeless men, dressed in tattered clothes and with fierce eyes, blocked the alley entrance with knives in their hands.

The girl's voice was trembling with tears as she spoke into the phone screen: "Brothers, I... I think I have to mail it. Is it still useful to call the police now? What's the number again...?"

In her panic, she couldn't even remember the local police phone number!
