Li Wei awakened on the New York battlefield during the Chitauri invasion and gained powerful sorcery through the Heavens and Myriad Worlds Plunder System. After escaping to a rooftop, he planned to use the crisis to earn Tony Stark’s favor and began preparing a spell.
Li Wei used his new magic to help Tony Stark during the Battle of New York, then sought payment by asking to study at the New York Sanctum. The Ancient One let him inside, leaving Li Wei to face the real test.
Li Wei met with Ancient One at the New York Sanctum and explained his intervention in the Battle of New York, his mysterious legacy, and his desire to learn magic. Ancient One allowed him to use the Library’s basic and intermediate sections for a month in exchange for a strand of his possible futures, opening the way for further exchanges.
Li Wei traded the Astral Visualization Technique and his Energy Bridge Theory with Ancient One for her knowledge of spatial magic and energy refinement. After gaining access to the New York Sanctum library, he began a month of study intended to prepare him for the Marvel Universe’s challenges and his next plunder.
Li Wei used the system to scan and study the New York Sanctum Library, integrating its magical knowledge with his existing inheritance and strengthening his control over magic. After nearly a month, he left the Library prepared to meet Iron Man and begin his next venture.
Li Wei established a concealed sorcerer’s base in Manhattan and negotiated with Tony Stark for technical materials and access to a private laboratory in exchange for his help during the Battle of New York. After Stark left, Li Wei prepared to use his new resources before traveling to the world of Chronicle to obtain telekinesis.
Li Wei planned a covert way to siphon energy from the Psychic Crystal in the world of Chronicle, avoiding its defenses and the teenagers who would discover it. After crafting protective and siphoning tools, he traveled to the cave where the crystal was hidden and began his operation.
Li Wei siphoned psychic energy from the CHP Crystal until Andrew, Matt, and Steve discovered him and attacked. He killed them, erased the evidence, completed the extraction, and returned to his apartment with his mindset changed by the encounter.
Li Wei forcibly refined the telekinetic source in the Voidspace Stone, gaining immense power while carrying the mental scars of its contamination and the people he had killed. After the system warned him of lingering mental impurities, he decided to visit Stark's laboratory and forge his first weapon.
Li Wei returned to the Assassin's League world to analyze the Loom of Fate and steal the Fraternity's knowledge, then combined its curved-shooting techniques with psychokinesis. Back in the Marvel Universe, he perfected a guided-projectile ability and prepared to test his powers amid the coming turmoil.
Li Wei forged the Startrail bracer, a magitech weapon that linked to his blood and let him fire enchanted projectiles along thought-controlled trajectories. As he tested it, the Ancient One appeared and called for a serious conversation about his growing power and the bracer’s effect on fate.
Ancient One confronted Li Wei about his predatory pursuit of power and the risks it posed to other worlds. They reached an understanding that allowed Li Wei to continue, provided he respected boundaries and accepted responsibility, and Li Wei prepared to put Startrail to use.
Li Wei entered the Resident Evil world on the eve of the Hive incident and revealed Spence as the virus thief before the villa team could descend underground. He joined the U.S.S. mission and gained Alice’s trust, leaving with the team as they prepared to investigate the Hive.
Li Wei and the team entered The Hive, where he used his abilities to save them from zombies and the Red Queen’s laser trap. They survived the corridor and prepared to confront the Red Queen.
The team shut down Red Queen, but doing so released the Lickers from B Restaurant. Li Wei helped defeat the creatures that escaped, and the team secured Red Queen’s motherboard to guide them out and reveal the truth.
Li Wei stole Umbrella’s secret research and facility data before leading the team back to the train. As they fled The Hive, Lickers blocked the tunnel ahead and Nemesis closed in from behind, trapping the survivors.
Li Wei and the survivors escaped The Hive after defeating Nemesis, then faced Umbrella Corporation’s retrieval team at the mansion. Umbrella showed interest in Li Wei and Alice, leaving the team’s next confrontation with the company ahead.
Li Wei analyzed the T-virus and used magic, telekinesis, and an anchored consciousness to control its effects as he injected himself. He emerged with enhanced physical abilities and sharper senses while retaining full control of his mind.
Li Wei transformed the Red Queen into the loyal, rapidly evolving Crimson Empress and gave her control of the internet. After she secretly raised twelve billion dollars and surpassed JARVIS, Li Wei turned his attention to A.I.M. and the Extremis Virus.
Li Wei intervened in the battle at Stark’s villa, defeated Killian’s Extremis soldiers, and took the virus research for himself. By combining Extremis with the T-virus, he created a loyal bio-weapon and prepared to reveal the Myriad Realms Secret Society to the world.
Li Wei used a dimensional invasion during New York’s Battle of New York anniversary to reveal the Myriad Realms Secret Society and demonstrate its overwhelming power. After making a public declaration, he returned to his base as S.H.I.E.L.D. and Kamar-Taj began responding to his appearance.
Li Wei deterred S.H.I.E.L.D., Hydra, major powers, and Asgard with overwhelming force, establishing the Myriad Realms Secret Society as a power others feared to challenge. He then prepared to travel to X-Men: First Class to seek mutant gene optimization technology and early Tesseract application data.
Li Wei inserted himself into the conflict between Charles Xavier, Erik Lehnsherr, and Sebastian Shaw, offering his help while secretly seeking mutant genetic samples. He located Jean Grey and Storm and collected X-Gene samples from the Original X-Men, leaving their analysis and optimization underway.
Li Wei secretly gathered Sebastian Shaw’s X-Gene sample and studied his energy absorption ability during the battle off Cuba. After stopping missiles and declaring the Myriad Realms Secret Society would protect the planet, he left through a portal with Raven, Jean, and Ororo, reshaping the future of mutants.
Li Wei welcomed Raven, Jean Grey, and Ororo Munroe to the Myriad Realms Secret Society and helped them begin training. He fused optimized X-gene fragments into his own body, then turned his attention back to the Marvel main world and the turmoil caused by the “bill.”
