[Optional targets: Shapeshifting (ability), Mind Control (ability), Soul Devourer (item), Demon Scale (bloodline)]

Below the three lines of small text is the details page marked in bold red letters.

[Shadowshift (ability): Create a clone that can attract and resist damage and enter stealth mode, which can be used once every 300 seconds. Note that you must prioritize attacking the follower with taunt ability. ]

[Mind Control (Ability): Read the thoughts of everyone within a 13-meter radius, although everyone's minds are generally very dirty. Note that this ability cannot be applied to people with stronger mental power than you. ]

[Soul Eater Scythe (item): This is a sickle that hosts a Soul Eater. It causes 20 points of true damage when it hits. Please note, please do not use this item in a narrow space. ]

[Demon Scales (Bloodline): You have grown demon scales, increasing your basic defense by 2000% and becoming immune to abnormal states or effects. Note that this is just a limb abnormality created by a demon worshiper, not a true bloodline.]

To be honest, Serena wanted all of the four things that appeared before her. But she only had one chance to choose, so she had to weigh them and find the one that suited her best.

The first is the Shadow Reversal, which is really powerful. The description in the precautions at the end, which is like a prank, has already made it stronger than the other three options. However, the 300-second cooldown and the non-passive triggering conditions have greatly reduced the practicality of this thing. As an active skill, she doesn't think she can use the skill to dodge before the bullet hits her body. She knows very well that gang fights in reality are not like in the movies, where two groups of people hold pistols and fire one by one. They are basically all kinds of illegally modified fully automatic weapons, firing a few shots randomly, and then the beasts gather and the birds scatter all over the street.

If you encounter someone who doesn't know where to aim when shooting, even if you can be invisible, it's useless. Ricochet is not a logical thing. It can hit any weird position and is not limited to the area in front of the shooter. And now her property happens to be in Hell's Kitchen. As one of the best gangster dens in the entire Marvel, Kingpin is a ruthless man who can even use a 20mm machine gun to shoot Spider-Man. A few rifles with modified bump stocks are as common as eating and drinking water for Marvel gangsters...

As for the second option, mind control, Selina felt that it was actually not very useful. If she was still in the previous world, she would have chosen this thing without hesitation. But the problem was that the place she was in was called Marvel. And the thing that Marvel lacked the least was people who were different from ordinary people. In other words, normal people were the rarest in this world. Not to mention the X gene that everyone had, the experiments that the gods did on Earth in ancient times alone destined that the humans in this world were not the good men and women you imagined.

The third item, the Soul Eater Scythe, does seem pretty good, but a normal person would never choose a sickle as a weapon. Although the Dacians used sickles to fight the Romans in the Classical Era, anyone who knows history should know their final fate. This thing is not suitable for chopping, it can only cut. In order to balance the center of gravity, other things have to be installed at the tail. Without professional training, taking this thing to the battlefield, the result can only be described as a miserable death. In an era of riding and slashing, it is necessary to use such an incompatible weapon...

"Tsk, it seems that only the last option can be considered a perfect choice?"

Thinking of this, Selina couldn't help but stop. She took the pistol that was originally hanging on her waist into her hand. The reason was that she had almost reached her destination.

What was even more coincidental was that we arrived at the foot of a 22-story building that looked quite old.

In front of her, there were several black men with dreadlocks trying to pry at the door lock...

Chapter 3 First Blood?

[Emergency Mission: Real Estate Defense War]

[Mission content: Kill those bastards who covet our house. ]

[Task Reward: Some US dollars, some pistols, and 1 extra selection time]

The prompt from the system appeared in front of Selina the moment she saw the group of people. She was not a good person to begin with, so she raised her gun without hesitation. After all, she was in the real estate business in her previous life. This thing can't be handled without some skills...

"Can't you hurry up? It's just a door! This place has been abandoned for almost three months. Don't tell me you can't fix a door."

A black man who looked like the leader was impatiently scolding the man who broke into the door. The skinny man with patterns all over his body, who looked like a window grille, just rolled his eyes at the man impatiently and continued to work on his job.

"This lock seems to have an electronic chip. It's so advanced. I think there must be good stuff inside."

Another black man who seemed to have some experience was eager to try with his sledgehammer in hand.

"I don't know if there's any good stuff, but if you niggers don't get out of my door now, you don't have to leave."

The sudden female voice startled the three people at the door. When they turned around, they saw a black muzzle of a gun...

"Hey! Calm down! Calm down!"

The leader was stunned for a moment when he saw the gun in Serena's hand, and then he quickly spoke, trying to get her to put the gun down. Unfortunately, the three of them made a mistake in their calculations...

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

That was Selina, who came here with the intention of killing the three of them...

"You're touching your lower back while you're yelling to calm down? Do you think you're dark enough, or do you think I'm blind?"

The three people who were knocked to the ground by a gunshot in the chest were completely stunned. They had never seen any ordinary citizen dare to shoot in the street, even if... this was Hell's Kitchen.

"Wait...we...we can..."

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

However, Selina did not give the three of them a chance to continue speaking. She just silently shot each of them twice on the head, trying to give them a painless death.

"What bad luck."

Satisfied as the number of options in front of her changed from 1 to 2, Selina put the gun back to her waist, and ignored the lights around her that were lit up by the gunshots. She just kicked the three bodies to the garbage place under the stairs with her feet in disgust. Afterwards, she didn't do anything, stepped on the blood and brains on the ground, took out the apartment IC card she used in the previous world, and inserted it into the door of this new home.

"Oh, it actually opened..."

Selina was a little surprised. Although the system had not given her the key before, she did associate it with this development.

"Then isn't my room also on the twelfth floor like before?"

Looking at the lobby in front of her, which was naturally powered on and lit up as she entered, and the elevator in the distance that had resumed operation, Selina raised her eyebrows slightly. She knew that the system might be playing a very new trick on her...

[Main Mission 1: Develop Tenants]

[Task content: Develop at least one tenant within one year. ]

[Task Reward: Extend the stay time in the current world, obtain special permissions to travel between worlds, select times x1]

"really......"

Serena was not surprised at all. After seeing the logo on the novice gift pack, she realized that it was very likely that this system was causing her to travel through time. After all, who could drive a dump truck to the 18th floor and throw someone off the balcony?

"So what exactly are you? Although the common routine in those novels is that a system wholeheartedly assists the protagonist, you are obviously different from that kind of thing. You have your own selfish desires, and you seem to have a very deep obsession with something I don't know. Although pie in the sky will not fall, you fell from the sky. I can see that everything in this lobby is brand new, which is completely inconsistent with the age revealed by the exterior building. And the decoration also uses the aesthetic standards of China in the 21st century before I traveled through time. But I know that these things do not appear out of thin air."

Walking to the back of the lobby reception desk, Serena easily found the electronic cabinet for storing room cards and keys. Next, there was a touch-screen all-in-one machine that was very un-20th century, and a purple-bottomed red-leather invoice that was very Chinese.

"No talk? No talk is fine. If the outer walls were replaced with glass, I would think this is just an ordinary five-star Holiday Inn. As for this elevator..."

After successfully checking the lobby, Selena had now arrived in front of the four gold-painted elevator doors.

"The infrared sensor door doesn't seem to have a blind spot. If it's not an old-fashioned mechanical pressure sensor, then it should be something from after 2010."

Selena pressed one of them at random and immediately found the clue.

"Tony Stark is only 20 years old this year, not even older than me. Now, apart from going to bars and nightclubs all night, his mind is not on his studies and the group at all. In this case, the time of this world will not be later than the 20s, that is, 80. So they are not created by this world at all, and they are very likely from the place where I originally lived."

As she spoke, Serena walked into the elevator. However, she did not plan to go directly to the 12th floor to check on her home, but instead pressed the 2nd floor, which was the floor where the king-size bed room she had seen at the front desk was located.

"Heh... a very standard IKEA combination. Unfortunately, copying is not a good idea, because that's what I did back then."

After using her IC card to swipe open a random door, she inserted her card into the card slot at the door. Immediately, the whole room was powered on. She searched around the room and soon found a label from the inside of the snow-white quilt.

"Made in PRC? And it's labeled 2023? Boy, you can't even tear off the label, how dare you do this business?"

Serena had just finished her words when the label she had turned out disappeared immediately...

[A technical problem has been detected and has been corrected. ]

Chapter 4 The Old Ones

"Let's be frank. I know you have something you want, and I have something I want. So the question is, what do you need? And what can you give me in return?"

Selina walked out of the room without paying attention to the open door, but the door closed by itself. It was the same IoT system used in 18.

"I don't consider myself a generous person, but your existence has made me waste more than 40 years of my life. Every time, when I was about to reach a turning point in my life, it was your strange choice of time travel that took away everything I should have. I guess you must be trying to use me to collect something. If you don't collect it, then you will choose to leave that world and move on to the next one."

Entering the elevator again, even though it was a little scary to hear him mumbling to himself alone, Selena didn't bother to pay attention to it.

"I am already 47 years old this year. I have experienced the process of going from nothing to something and from something to nothing twice. The time travel caused by you has made my previous efforts and struggles seem as ridiculous as a clown in a circus. But I still want to thank you, because you brought me into a world that I am most familiar with. But you, you don't know much about it."

Until the elevator slowly stopped on the twelfth floor, Serena looked at the living room directly connected to the elevator door and the familiar decorations around it. A sneer gradually appeared on her face.

"My next words are not threats, but normal information. You can choose not to answer, but I can't guarantee what will happen."

As she spoke, she raised her right hand, like a gun, and pressed it against her temple.

"You may not know that the Eraser has a remote activation system that can be activated by saying the password in a specific order, no matter where it is. Unfortunately, the stupid Galactus and his old friend Mr. Fantastic forgot to add voice recognition to this system. This means that as long as there is a universe where the Eraser exists, anyone who knows the password can remotely activate it anywhere. As a metaphysical weapon, the user can use it to attack anything that exists here, even the concept itself. It can sweep everything into the editorial wastebasket like a lighter burns comics. So I think... you should know what this means."

As soon as these words were spoken, Selina clearly felt that the system screen in front of her suddenly became much brighter.

"I'll only give you three minutes... cooperate or die."

After saying that, she took out a pocket watch that looked like it was made with extraordinary craftsmanship from the waist bag hidden under her mink coat. As the hands moved minute by minute, the being hidden behind the system finally became restless.

【stop!!!!!!】

As the light blue curtain of light completely shattered and turned into some strange scarlet text followed by six exclamation marks, Selena realized that her threat was really effective.

"So the first question is, who are you?"

He took back the pocket watch in his hand with satisfaction. His plan of taking advantage of the power of others was a great success.

[We are the pioneers of the dark stars, from the eternal calamity...]

However, Selina interrupted the other party without waiting for him to finish.

"So... you are the Polyhedrons? You have been targeting me since I traveled through the world. So what about this system? It can't be the same as the snake crown that Set used to deceive his believers."

Her words obviously stunned the Old Ones on the opposite side. They had never seen someone who could guess their origins with just one sentence, let alone a time traveler. So after hesitating for a long time, the scarlet text slowly answered.

[Your system is indeed magical, but it is not our creation. It's just that some accidents occurred when we were studying it, so...]

The meaning of this statement is very clear: the polyamorous players have messed up her system.

[Some of its functions are products that we have only just managed to restore. If it weren't for the information from outside the world that it contains, which makes us salivate, it wouldn't have ended up like this.]

After hearing what the polyamorists said, Selena was stunned for a moment. It turned out that this thing had already been sent away when she created it when she traveled through time.

"So what functions have you restored?"

She was somewhat curious about this.

[Travel refers to the travel between different universes and worlds. We have barely reproduced a narrow passage through the information recorded by it.]

"So, you are not the ones who select the rewards and issue the tasks?"

[The mission module has been partially damaged. It cannot release missions other than the preset ones. As for the reward, we don't know its operating logic. Those strange things seem to have appeared out of thin air.]

Well, now Selina understood. She was supposed to, seemed to, and appeared to have a very powerful system. Unfortunately, the other party died before he could achieve his goal, and was caught and destroyed by the polyglots.

"Then what's the matter with me traveling through time every 20 years?"

After a brief thought, Serena asked the question that concerned her most at the moment.

[Due to the damage of the time travel function, the space-time environment around you is extremely unstable. After about 18 hours, this value will reach the maximum and may cause space-time collapse.]

Selina did some calculations in her mind and found that 18 hours was about twenty years and a few months.

"From what you said, it seems that my system still has some useful functions?"

After learning this, Selena started asking other questions.
