Zombie Marvel? Luckily, I'm Superman!

Lin Yi was gazing at the night sky, lost in thought, when he saw a small ball flying straight toward him.

He had sensed the city before and hadn't discovered any such high-tech creations; the only ones he'd found were things like the Owlman searchlight.

After a moment of stunned silence, Lin Yi reached out and pulled the thing over.

I took a quick look, and wow, it contained quite a lot of stuff, including a miniature power supply device.

Who's doing this and what's going on here?

With his senses activated, Lin Yi tried to pinpoint the source of the small ball.

Then I sensed a large humanoid object flying toward me in the sky.

He flew into normal sight and landed in front of him.

The mask was removed, revealing a face that even Lin Yi thought was unlikely to appear.

"Holy crap, Tony?" Lin Yi was shocked, and even began to wonder if he was hallucinating.

How did this guy get in here too?

"Lin Yi! You're really here!" Tony landed in front of Lin Yi, lifted his mask, and looked somewhat tired.

Lin Yi raised the small ball in his hand.

"Did you cause this? And why are you here?"

Lin Yi didn't think that Tony was behind his arrival here.

First of all, he didn't think Tony had this ability. Even if he did possess this ability over a long period of time, as Tony described, there was no reason for him to appear as well.

However, Lin Yi still remained somewhat wary.

"Yes, quantum sensors, used to detect basic information about the world." Tony rubbed his temples.

Upon seeing Lin Yi, his mood eased again. The fatigue from the previous fight and events was now clearly visible, making him somewhat sleepy.

"I won't go into that now. The reason I came here is a long story."

Lin Yi tossed the ball to Tony: "Let's get straight to the point."

Tony took a deep breath and relayed all the information that Lin Yi's light and shadow had provided.

Finally, he took out the gem given to him by the light and shadow and threw it to Lin Yi.

Lin Yi's pupils contracted, and he immediately recognized her.

Dimensional Gems!

He was wondering why he couldn't wake up the dimensional gem; it turns out it never came with him at all.

I didn't even realize it had disappeared from the bracelet!

As for the information Tony mentioned, although somewhat surprised, Lin Yi quickly accepted it.

The image of himself that Tony spoke of was of a certain time period, and it was unclear how he broke through absolute uniqueness to appear before Tony.

But these are no longer things that Lin Yi needs to think about right now.

His priority was getting back as soon as possible.

Just as Guangying said, he didn't have much time left, only a little over two days at most.

As for the watch face... Lin Yi sensed something was amiss from the word "recycling".

It sounds like this watch dial originally belonged to me?

So far, Lin Yi's speculation about the dial is limited to the fact that it can rewind time within a specific range, and may even be able to stop or speed up time to some extent.

However, this is only a superficial speculation.

Based on information from various sources, the existence of Time City is related to the watch face, and it could even be said that the watch face controls Time City to a certain extent.

If the watch face truly belongs to you, does that mean that Time City also belongs to you after it's recycled?

As for how to recycle it, Lin Yi felt it should be similar to the method he had previously thought of: injecting enough energy into the dial.

That's something Lin Yi will need to test.

Regardless, Lin Yi was overjoyed to have the Dimensional Gem back in his hands.

This thing is practically a cheat code; it can perfectly solve the charging problem of large watch faces.

With a cheerful grip on the dimensional gem, Lin Yi began to channel the energy.

The energy of dimensional gems possesses unique high-dimensional properties, making the bizarre existences of the three-dimensional world completely transparent in their presence.

With the Dimensional Gem, Lin Yi can see through everything in this world, including the essence of the watch face. Now there's no need to guess; he can just look at the watch face directly.

But the next second, Lin Yi's smile froze on his face.

The energy of the dimensional gem cannot be mobilized.

Are you kidding me? Is this how you play?

Lin Yi squeezed the gemstone.

Based on my senses, this is indeed a dimensional gem. The characteristics of its energy and matter are genuine, and it is my own gem.

But why can't we gather energy anymore?

It felt as if someone had locked up the dimensional gem, making it something that could only be looked at but not used.

"What's wrong?" Tony noticed the change in Lin Yi's expression and immediately asked.

Lin Yi didn't hide anything and asked Tony in return, "Did you encounter anything on your way here? This gem is unusable."

"It doesn't work?" Tony was taken aback, then added, "Nothing happened."

"Your light and shadow tell me that if I hold this gem, it will lead me to you."

"If there's any possibility of a problem, it's that after I grasped the gem, I entered the tunnel for a few seconds."

Tony stroked his chin, pondering, "It was a tunnel made entirely of light, but I didn't detect anything unusual or amiss. The connection between them is probably minimal..."

Lin Yi nodded, confirming Tony's statement.

He also felt that it had little to do with light tunnels or anything like that.

If a dimensional gem could simply malfunction after passing through a tunnel, it wouldn't be a dimensional gem.

The atmosphere fell silent as the two stood there, each lost in thought.

After a while, Lin Yi was the first to raise his head, interrupting Tony's thoughts.

"Okay, Tony, I need you to do two things for me right now."

If he couldn't think of anything for the time being, he wouldn't dwell on it. Now that he had the clue of retrieving the large watch face, Lin Yi decided to return to Time City first and see if the Dimensional Gem could be used there. Although Lin Yi felt that it didn't matter much where he was, he still had to try.

"you say."

"The first thing you need to do is find me a child."

"The second thing is that there are many doors here that lead back to Time City... Oh, that's where my light and shadow and the dial you mentioned are located."

"Regardless, we need to get back to Time City first."

The door to return, I don't know when it will appear, where it will appear, or how many doors there are.

The old man said that the doors within the display range on the panel were a complete joke.

Using Tony's quantum sensor to detect this thing will make things much easier for Lin Yi, at least he won't have to constantly sense and search for it.

Tony nodded and asked, "What child are you looking for? Do you have a photo?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yi stepped into the house, saying, "Wait a minute, I'll find you one with a photo."

He doesn't have a photo, but the old man does.

With Tony's quantum sensor, finding people should be a breeze.

Unfortunately, the way these cities exist is too bizarre. If it weren't for the fact that even his senses couldn't figure these things out, Lin Yi wouldn't want to bother with this old man anymore.
