Zombie Marvel? Luckily, I'm Superman!

The comments scrolled rapidly across the phone screen.

"Run, streamer! Don't just stand there!!"

"Get out of here, upstairs! Where the hell do you think you're running to? Do you think the streamer is Superman or Spider-Man?"

"I've already called the police, but they'll take time to get here! Hang in there, anchor!"

"I know these three homeless men; they're notorious tough guys around here. Streamer, please don't provoke them!"

"I'm on duty at the nearby weapons shop, waiting for my streamer!"

Viewers flooded into the live stream, and traffic surged rapidly.

On weekdays, the girl's live streams only get about a dozen viewers, and on weekends, it might get a few dozen. Normally, she'd probably jump for joy. But now, she has no interest in reading the comments.

Tears welled up and rolled down her cheeks uncontrollably. The girl's name was Lin Xiao, and she was an ordinary office worker.

I came to New York this time because I got incredibly lucky and won the company's annual grand prize: a free seven-day trip.

At first, she hesitated about whether to exchange her spot for a small amount of money to buy a new phone. But thinking about how she hadn't had a proper break in all these years of working, she finally decided to give it a try.

The first few days went smoothly; she streamed her experiences and shared them with a small audience. Today, while walking down the street, a homeless man reached out to her. Seeing his tattered clothes, she felt compassion and gave him some change.

But to her surprise, the other party went too far and actually teamed up with two other homeless men to follow her all the way.

She panicked and wanted to run to a crowded place, but because she didn't know the way, she was easily cornered by three homeless men from different places, and had nowhere to retreat but to this dead end with nowhere to escape.

At that moment, her regret was beyond words. She remembered what her mother had said: she hadn't gone that far alone; it was too dangerous, and she shouldn't act impulsively.

But she felt this was a good opportunity to train, and besides, she had her brothers in the live stream to keep her company. As long as she didn't go to those dirty and messy places, she would be fine.

But the viewers in the live stream are separated by a screen, so how could they possibly offer her real-world help?

The three homeless men, speaking in a dialect-English accent, slowly approached with lewd expressions. She couldn't understand a word they were saying. But she could imagine what would happen to her; she had seen similar videos more than once, but she always thought that as long as she was careful, she would never encounter anything like it.

But reality is so coincidental. In that instant, Lin Xiao's mind was racing! For the first time, she truly experienced that reality is far from being a movie or a novel; reality is far more cruel than either.

Reality didn't follow the movie plot; there was no sudden appearance of a tall, mighty, righteous hero to save her, and no superpowers to slap her away...slap, fly...?

Just as he was about to be completely overwhelmed by despair, Lin Xiao suddenly caught something flashing past above the alley entrance out of the corner of his eye. It was incredibly fast.

She instinctively trembled, causing the phone camera to tilt slightly upwards, which happened to capture a figure.

A handsome young man with black hair and black eyes, dressed in black casual clothes, hovered in the air above the alley entrance.

"..." The screen went blank for a moment, then the comments section was flooded with them again.

"Holy crap? What's that?"

"Superman? A flying Superman? And with an Asian face!"

"Why the hell can't he be a cultivator? Even though he doesn't have a flying sword!"

"Wait, what the hell is this plot twist? I'm a bit confused!"

"This is definitely an actor! I knew it was scripted! People these days are crazy for clicks!"

"How much did the streamer spend on these special effects?"

Lin Xiao was stunned. Superpowers? Flying? Superman? Or a cultivator? This was beyond her comprehension. Shouldn't those things only exist in novels and on screen?

No, is now the time to think about these things?

She stared blankly as the handsome, sunny "Superman" descended from the sky. Before the three homeless men could react, she quickly waved her hand.

The hand didn't even touch the three homeless men; it merely unleashed a chaotic storm that slammed them against the wall.

Boom!

The three homeless men landed and remained motionless; it was unclear whether they had fainted or died.

She watched as "Superman" dealt with the three homeless men, then his eyes lit up as he strode quickly toward her.

"Holy crap, holy crap! One slap and a storm ensued! I knew there were superpowers in this world!"

"Hurry up, anchor! Get on board!"

"Holy crap, streamer, does he have a crush on you?"

"Seriously, do you guys really think this is real? This isn't some movie, is it?"

"This smell... let it dissipate quickly! I can already guess what's going to happen next! Is the streamer trying to enter the film and television industry?"

"To be honest, the special effects are amazing, and the actors are handsome too, almost as good-looking as me!"

The comments flowed like a waterfall. Lin Xiao, however, instinctively took a step back as Lin Yi approached.

Lin Yi stepped forward, quickly pressing down on Lin Xiao's shoulders, his eyes blazing.

"Imperial Jade Liquor?"

"Huh? What?" Lin Xiao shuddered, completely dumbfounded.

"I said, 'Imperial Jade Liquor,' what's the next line?" Lin Yi shook Lin Xiao's shoulder impatiently.

Lin Xiao's mind went blank, but the line that was almost etched into her DNA still slipped out.

"One, one hundred and eighty cups?"

Lin Yi's eyes lit up even brighter! Suppressing his excitement, he pointed tremblingly at Lin Xiao's raised hands: "You..."

"Huh? I, my name is Lin Xiao..." Lin Xiao answered subconsciously.

Wow, not only are they from the same hometown, but they're even from the same clan?

"Tsk, what nonsense!" Lin Yi snapped back to reality: "Who asked you that? Lend me your phone, quick!"

Without waiting for Lin Xiao's reply, he snatched the phone away. "I'll save her life. It shouldn't be a problem to use the phone for a bit, right?"

Seeing the live stream and rapidly scrolling comments on the screen, Lin Yi leaned back and looked at Lin Xiao with a puzzled expression.

This guy is interesting; even in this situation, he still doesn't forget to livestream? It's hard to judge.

"Hey handsome, what's your name? How much does this special effect cost per pound? Uh oh, how much per second?"

"What kind of script is this?"

"Am I the only one who thinks this guy actually has superpowers? I've never heard of live streams using this level of special effects!"

Lin Yi ignored the comments and quickly swiped to the main screen. The moment he saw the green bubble, his heart raced again.

Open, click the plus sign, and add a friend.

Lin Yi entered a number buried deep in his memory and pressed the search button heavily.

The search results popped up instantly.

User nickname: Dog Head Super Avenue

The profile picture is a familiar Shiba Inu emoji with a sly smile that I haven't seen in years.

A familiar nickname, a familiar profile picture, a familiar phone number!

Holy crap! An indescribable sense of absurdity washed over me, then I was quickly overwhelmed by shock and ecstasy, even mixed with a touch of bewilderment.

Holy crap, I'm back?

Back to Earth before my time travel? My original universe?!
