• Qi Jun used the crowd and road signs to make his way toward Chinatown in southern Manhattan.
• Qi Jun avoided the area around Stark Tower because he feared intelligence operatives and reporters might notice him.

Qi Jun hid in Chinatown after selling a jade pendant to get cash and finding a room where he could stay without identification. Once he had secured a moment alone, he discovered that his transmigrator perk had arrived and began learning how it worked.

• Qi Jun sold his Guanyin Jade Pendant for eight hundred dollars and wandered through the crowds to lose any possible pursuers.
• Qi Jun found a little inn that did not require identification and checked in.
• Qi Jun noticed a pillar of light rise from Stark Tower and relaxed when it caused no immediate explosion.
• Qi Jun searched his room for surveillance, then lay on the bed to calm himself after realizing he had entered the dangerous Marvel Universe.
• Qi Jun sat up in delighted surprise after merging with his cheat and learning that it was neither a system nor an independently intelligent being.

Qi Jun learned that his cheat was a mutated Reality Stone with the Marvel Reality Stone’s abilities and additional powers. The stone could adapt to any universe, protect him by absorbing energy without draining his life, and left him considering how its passive defense could keep him safe even in space.

• Qi Jun restrained his excitement after realizing he possessed a Reality Stone in the dangerous Marvel Universe.
• Qi Jun learned that his Mutated Reality Stone could use its full power in any universe by adapting to its fundamental essence.
• Qi Jun discovered that the stone would not drain his life force and could protect him passively without requiring his energy.
• Qi Jun learned that the stone’s passive protection absorbed many forms of energy, including harmful radiation, allowing him to survive in space with an oxygen tank.
• Qi Jun learned that the stone’s powerful passive ability still had drawbacks for him.

Qi Jun set aside questions about his arrival in the Marvel Universe and resolved to live his own life. He then began absorbing electrical energy for the first time.

• Qi Jun reasoned that he might not learn why he had transmigrated or bonded with the Mutated Reality Stone for a long time, so he stopped dwelling on it.
• Qi Jun decided to focus on living his own life rather than expecting answers or special allies.
• Qi Jun began absorbing electrical energy for the first time.

Qi Jun learned that the [Mutated Stone] required energy in exchange for granting his wishes, and he prepared to test it by absorbing electricity from an outlet. He remained nervous but resolved to go through with it, holding an ear pick and small scissors as tools.

• The [Mutated Stone] explained that Qi Jun had to supply energy to use its power and that it kept half of the energy he absorbed through it.
• Qi Jun accepted the energy-sharing arrangement, believing his share would increase as he grew stronger.
• Qi Jun looked for an energy source in his room and considered touching an electrical outlet.
• Qi Jun searched for something to use but found only an ear pick and small folding scissors on his key ring.
• Qi Jun held the two tools and hesitated before trying the outlet.

Qi Jun tested his powers by putting metal tools into an electrical socket and discovered that he could absorb and control electricity without being harmed. After his power caused a transformer to explode and blacked out the neighborhood, he realized intelligence agencies might investigate, but trusted the Mutated Stone to protect him.

• Qi Jun put an ear pick and small scissors into a socket and felt electricity course through his body without hurting him.
• Qi Jun willed the tingling sensation to intensify, drawing enough current to make a nearby transformer explode.
• Qi Jun looked outside and realized that he had caused the blackout and the chaos in the neighborhood.
• Qi Jun considered the threat from S.H.I.E.L.D., Hydra, and other agencies, but remained confident in the Mutated Stone's power.

Qi Jun discovered that absorbing a city block’s electricity had yielded only 2.5 energy units, far less than he needed to manifest a spaceship. He realized the Mutated Stone could still effortlessly restore damage using very little energy, but he needed a better energy source.

• Qi Jun checked the Mutated Stone and found that it held only 2.5 energy units after absorbing electricity from an entire block.
• Qi Jun calculated that the electricity had converted to just five energy points before the Stone’s fifty-fifty split, leaving him short of the energy needed to reach Morag.
• Qi Jun ruled out pursuing the Tesseract for now because S.H.I.E.L.D., the Ancient One, and Odin posed too much danger.
• Qi Jun discovered that electricity was low-grade energy for the Mutated Stone and that its conversion efficiency was poor.
• Qi Jun used a tiny amount of energy to restore the damage from his earlier attempt, appreciating that the Reality Stone could carry out imagined changes without physical effort.

Qi Jun used the Mutated Stone to erase the damage from absorbing electricity and learned that living humans could be recycled for energy, though he rejected the troubling ideas this suggested. He identified Hell's Kitchen as his next destination but hesitated to leave because he had no records in this world.

• Qi Jun restored the damage caused by his electricity absorption, leaving the exploded transformer burning.
• Qi Jun learned that altering human memories required more energy and that human bodies could be recycled for energy.
• Qi Jun rejected the ideas that came to mind after learning about the energy in living people.
• Qi Jun looked toward Hell's Kitchen as his next destination.
• Qi Jun stayed put because he lacked an identity or records in the Marvel Universe.

Qi Jun used the Mutated Stone to create genuine Eastern Ancient Country identification and U.S. travel documents, then left Chinatown for Hell's Kitchen. He passed two federal police identity checks and headed out at night, determined to seize opportunities before the Marvel Universe's threats began to emerge.

• Qi Jun rejected creating a fabricated U.S. citizen identity because investigators could expose it and attract intelligence agencies.
• Qi Jun used the Mutated Stone to transform his ID and create a valid passport and U.S. tourist visa.
• Qi Jun left the inn despite having only 0.5 energy points remaining, aiming to reach Hell's Kitchen before daybreak.
• Qi Jun passed two federal police identity checks using his new documents and his Han-style English as cover.

Qi Jun entered Hell’s Kitchen after learning how dangerous the city could be and deciding he needed more power to protect himself. He prepared a disguise and stealth sunglasses before venturing into the gang-controlled streets.

• Qi Jun heard about a shooting that had killed thirteen people and regretted that he could not recycle the victims for energy points.
• The taxi driver refused to enter Hell’s Kitchen, so Qi Jun paid the fare and continued on foot.
• Qi Jun hid in a dark corner and manifested a Men in Black-style outfit and a realistic-looking toy gun to deter gang members.
• Qi Jun used his remaining energy points to create sunglasses that made nearby people overlook him and blocked surveillance for forty minutes.

Qi Jun tested the Stealth Sunglasses in Hell’s Kitchen and found that gangsters ignored him, then rushed toward nearby gunfire looking for a target. After a stray bullet struck the wall beside him, he stopped and realized he might be killed if he approached the real gunfight.

• Qi Jun confirmed that people around him could not see him while he wore the Stealth Sunglasses.
• Qi Jun returned to the shadows and searched Hell’s Kitchen for prey, wary that someone with powers might resist the sunglasses.
• Qi Jun heard gunfire and explosions and ran toward them, excited to find a potential target.
• A stray bullet struck the wall near Qi Jun, and flying concrete hit his cheek.
• Qi Jun stopped at the corner, recognized the danger, and hesitated over whether to continue toward the gunfight.

Qi Jun hesitated between continuing through the firefight and retreating, then remembered the [Mutated Stone] meant he could survive as long as he was not blown to bits. He overcame his fear and sprinted toward a bullet-riddled corpse, seeing it as a precious treasure.

• Qi Jun grew torn as gunfire and cannon fire intensified around him.
• Qi Jun touched the arm of the Stealth Sunglasses and remembered the [Mutated Stone] could keep him from dying.
• Qi Jun resolved to endure any pain rather than retreat.
• Qi Jun spotted a corpse behind a burning motorcycle and raced toward it.

Qi Jun absorbed the gangster’s corpse with the Mutated Stone, leaving no trace behind, and realized how powerful it was. Watching two gangs exchange gunfire, he resolved to become much stronger and saw the fighters as a source of energy points.

• Qi Jun urged the Mutated Stone to absorb the gangster’s corpse.
• The corpse, its clothes, the bullets, and the blood vanished completely.
• Qi Jun recognized the effect from movies and decided to become powerful through his own strength.
• Protected from notice by the Stealth Sunglasses, Qi Jun watched the gangs fight and spotted many energy points to claim.

Qi Jun discovered that recycling a living person yielded only two energy points, worth four thousand dollars, and wrestled with the temptation to treat the fighters as money. He decided to leave the living alone but charged toward another corpse, eager to spend money and grow stronger.

• Qi Jun checked his energy points and found that recycling the corpse had given him only 0.5 points.
• He calculated that recycling a living person would earn him four thousand dollars and eyed the fighters on the battlefield.
• Qi Jun scolded himself for considering the fighters walking money and resolved to leave them alone.
• He charged toward another corpse, repeating that spending money would make him stronger.

Qi Jun secretly collected money while two groups of gangsters fought, hoping their battle would earn him more energy points. After a stray bullet hit him, the [Mutated Stone] rapidly healed his arm, but he still stayed out of the gunfight.

• Qi Jun watched the gangsters exchange fire and urged them to fight harder so he could gain more energy points.
• He kept collecting bundles of cash while remaining hidden behind the fighters.
• A stray bullet struck Qi Jun in the arm, but the [Mutated Stone] forced out the bullet and quickly healed the wound.
• Qi Jun decided not to step into the fight against the dozens of armed gangsters.

Qi Jun watched two gangs exchange fire while his Stealth Sunglasses neared the end of their effect, then saw silent newcomers shoot down the gangsters from a building behind him. He realized they had approached without him noticing as the surviving gangsters fled.

• Qi Jun wondered why both gangs stayed behind cover instead of charging into the fight.
• Qi Jun considered using the [Mutated Stone] to extend the Stealth Sunglasses but hesitated to waste energy on the gangsters.
• Qi Jun heard faint sounds from a building behind him and saw gangsters on both sides begin dying.
• Qi Jun turned and spotted two figures with suppressed rifles, one large and one small, accurately picking off the gangsters.
• The remaining gangsters shouted that a demon had appeared and fled after their boss was killed.

Qi Jun watched two skilled gunmen wipe out both amateur gangs, then panicked when they landed nearby and feared they had spotted him. He debated whether he could kill them, but only had a toy gun and had never killed anyone but chickens.

• Two men upstairs fired precise bursts and killed the gang members on both sides.
• Qi Jun realized the two gangs had been amateurs compared with the gunmen.
• The two men jumped down behind Qi Jun, making him tense.
• Qi Jun wondered whether the men had spotted him and whether he should kill them.
• Qi Jun considered how to slit their throats, then wondered if he should jump up and scare them.

Qi Jun hid while two skilled figures killed and looted a group of gangsters, then wondered whether the [Mutated Stone] had concealed him from them. He recognized one figure as Batman and questioned whether DC also existed in this world.

• Qi Jun feared the two armed figures might notice him and considered whether the [Mutated Stone] could protect him from suffocation.
• The tall and petite figures walked past Qi Jun and looted the gangsters they had killed.
• Qi Jun checked his Infiltrator Sunglasses and silently praised the [Mutated Stone] for keeping him hidden.
• Qi Jun recognized the tall figure's silhouette as Batman and wondered whether DC existed alongside Marvel.
• Qi Jun questioned the identity of the figure in a Purple Suit and wondered why Batman wore a gold belt.

Qi Jun recognized JiaoXiao and Mindy as Big Daddy and Hit-Girl from Kick-Ass after finding them among the aftermath of a shootout. They hurried to loot the scene before Hell’s Kitchen bystanders arrived, while noting that several people were missing.

• Qi Jun noticed JiaoXiao’s belt and recognized him and Mindy as Big Daddy and Hit-Girl.
• Mindy complained that the men they had fought were too poor and that using more than one bullet would have been a loss.
• Big Daddy told Mindy to hurry and search the scene before a crowd gathered in Hell’s Kitchen.
• Mindy agreed but noticed that about a dozen people were missing, and Big Daddy said they would confront their informant.

Qi Jun recognized Big Daddy and Hit-Girl and decided it was safer to follow capable people and collect the aftermath of their fights. He reflected that their survival might depend on New York’s heroes and surveillance, while his own plan favored avoiding combat.

• Qi Jun lost track of Big Daddy and Hit-Girl’s conversation as they walked away.
• Qi Jun recognized the pair from their engraved belts and recalled Big Daddy training Hit-Girl to kill.
• Qi Jun reasoned that the pair might survive if their capture and trial were livestreamed in New York.
• Qi Jun decided to avoid fighting and pick up scraps left behind by capable people.
• Qi Jun noted that many Marvel heroes refused to kill even after criminals repeatedly harmed them.

Qi Jun decided to follow ruthless street-level heroes so he could collect energy from their defeated enemies, and secretly implanted a tracking chip under Hit-Girl’s skin. After Big Daddy and Hit-Girl left, he rushed to collect the fallen gangsters and considered the limits of his body-collection ability.

• Qi Jun resolved to stay close to heroes who killed villains, hoping to collect energy from the bodies they left behind.
• Qi Jun used the [Mutated Stone] to implant an undetectable tracking chip beneath Hit-Girl’s skin.
• Qi Jun heard someone approaching and hurried toward the fallen gangsters to collect them.
• Qi Jun recalled that he could collect bodies within five meters and his line of sight without touching them.
• Qi Jun suspected he could expand his collection range by becoming stronger or improving his control over the [Mutated Stone].

Qi Jun escaped Hell's Kitchen after using the [Mutated Stone] to recycle the gold touched by Big Daddy and Hit-Girl, then returned safely to his inn in Chinatown. After confirming his room was clear of surveillance, he counted the energy points he had gained and considered how to use them, while noting that a few loose ends remained.

• Qi Jun mentally ordered the [Mutated Stone] to recycle the glittering gold touched by Big Daddy and Hit-Girl as he ran through Hell's Kitchen.
• Using the Infiltrator Sunglasses, Qi Jun slipped past arriving gangsters and left Hell's Kitchen.
• Qi Jun took a taxi to Chinatown and returned to his previous inn without being questioned by police.
• Qi Jun checked his room for surveillance equipment with his Huawei P30 and relaxed after finding none.
• Qi Jun counted 21.5 energy points from recycling corpses, in addition to the three points he had spent on Hit-Girl's Tracking Biological Chip, and considered how to use his gains.

Qi Jun used the [Mutated Stone] to create a legal identity and home in New York, spending most of his energy reserves in the process. After sleeping soundly, he woke the next morning and looked out over bustling Chinatown.

• Qi Jun changed his identity to an immigrant from the Eastern Ancient Country and used the [Mutated Stone] to acquire an apartment in Chinatown, compensating its former owner.
• Qi Jun altered the memories and records of police officers who had seen him, changing his tourist visa into a valid green card, and added fabricated memories for people at his listed address back home.
• Qi Jun spent 7.5 energy points in total, leaving him with 14, and watched his old passport and visa disappear as new identification and bank cards appeared.
• Qi Jun relaxed and fell asleep, dreaming of mastering the [Mutated Stone] and becoming a supreme figure across the Marvel universe and other worlds.
• Qi Jun woke to the noise outside, washed up, and watched the crowds moving through Chinatown.

Qi Jun settled into his new apartment in Chinatown and considered how to spend his remaining energy points. He tried to use the [Mutated Stone] to learn English, but canceled when it said the skill would cost 10 points, leaving him uncertain what to do with his 14 points.

• Qi Jun left the hotel, disliked the heavily modified American-style Chinese food, and ate tasteless whole wheat bread with Lao Qian Niang instead.
• Qi Jun found the apartment that had been transferred into his name and began planning how to use his remaining 14 energy points.
• Qi Jun decided that learning English quickly was essential before he followed Hit-Girl that night to pick up scraps.
• Qi Jun tried to use the [Mutated Stone] to grant himself English proficiency, but canceled when it reported a cost of 10 energy points.
