Chapter 1: Marvel

On the streets of Chicago, USA, Li Wei stood in front of a newsstand, looking at the words "Playboy Tony Stark" in a newspaper with confusion written in his eyes.

He was just laying down on his chair and fell asleep for a while after playing games, how he could he travel to this strange world as soon as he woke up. It was the Marvel world he was not familiar with.

There are four people in the university dormitory. He loves to play games, while the other three love novels, Marvel and DC respectively. His understanding of Marvel is limited to the usual discussions of the other three roommates, such as Superman, Tony the dog, and Purple Sweet Potato Destroyer. Other than that he doesn't know much.

He is a poor college student, how could he wake up to face such a dangerous world?

Shivering, Li Wei reached out to his pocket subconsciously, but what he took out was not a mobile phone, but a wallet. Opening the wallet, Li Wei found some bits and pieces of U.S. dollars, several credit cards, driving licenses, passports, and a Social Security card. Although the name on the driver's license is the same as that of Li Wei, it can be seen from the above photo that this guy nothing but handsome, Li Wei is no longer the Li Wei of the past.

"Sure enough, I have crossed over…"

Looking at the driver's license, Li Wei was left speechless, he tried to recall in his mind what this previous owner's memories were. No father, no mother, no house, no car, no relatives and friends… a proper young man with nothing but his wallet and clothes, if the words described are closer to reality, his current occupation should be a homeless man…

"Is this… hell start?"

With a long sigh in his heart, Li Wei put his wallet in the inner pocket of his clothes, walked from the shadow of the building he was currently standing, and stepped into the bright sun. The next moment, Li Wei's body froze.

At the moment when the sun shined on him, an inexplicable warmth suddenly emerged in his body, he could perceive that his body seemed to burst out with infinite power.

Li Wei, who has experienced this feeling knows that this infinite power is nothing but an illusion caused by the energetic energy of the sun, but even so, the illusion that can produce such a thing from the sun still makes him a little surprised.

After calming down, Li Wei's face returned to indifference, and when he stepped back, and his body that had been exposed to the sun returned to the shadows the energetic feeling gradually faded until it disappeared completely after half a minute, as if nothing had happened.

When he took another step and walked into the sun, the familiar feeling quickly returned, and the illusion of overwhelming power emerged again.

He retreated into the shadow again and that feeling began to fade again. The newsstand owner has been observing Li Wei for quite some time and he has concluded that he's looking at a fool.

After experimenting back and forth twice, Li Wei finally confirmed that this should not be an illusion of his own. Exposure to sunlight may make his body stronger. Suddenly thinking of the Superman mentioned by his fanatic DC roommate, Li Wei's pupils shrank for a moment, and then an uncontrollable surprise emerged from the bottom of his heart 'FUCK! No way? Could it be that I can get stronger by basking in the sun like that superman?' 

With speculation and expectation in his heart, Li Wei's previous confusion was swept away, he once again stepped into the light and walked in the street as he gradually disappear from the newsstand owner's sight. "Thankfully that guy disappeared I don't want to lose my customer because of that psycho"

"The sun can give me strength but I can't be sure whether the strength lasts for a long time and I can't be sure if it's an illusion, so the best way is to find some specialized equipment for testing."

While thinking, Li Wei found a gym according to the previous owner's memory.

Superman is infinitely powerful and extremely fast, so Li Wei wants to test whether he has acquired Superman's ability and only needs to test the changes in his strength and speed.

And the equipment in the gym happens to provide the test for his strength and speed. Even if a person shows extraordinary strength and speed in the gym, he will only be regarded as a bodybuilder by those fitness fanatics and will not think of anything else. This is the simple thinking of a muscular guy.

Li Wei did not choose a high-end gym that operates 24 hours a day, so the fees are not that expensive, and the monthly fee of twelve dollars.

Although the gym also offers a one-time fee option, considering that there may be multiple strength and speed tests in the future, a monthly payment is the most cost-effective.

Putting away his items, Li Wei walked to the dumbbells, barbells, treadmill, bench press, etc. to perform his experiment.

It wasn't until half an hour later that Li Wei, who had obtained his general data, walked off the fitness equipment without blushing and panting. At this time, those bodybuilders no longer had the mentality of ridiculing Li Wei.

For those bodybuilders who are obsessed with muscles, strength and muscles are everything. As long as they show qualified strength and muscles, they will put away the mentality of watching and ridiculing someone.

As for the so-called provocation… This is a free and democratic country, a country where vicious shootings may occur because of a verbal altercation!

In addition to those street gangsters who carry knives and guns with them, how many people can think of provoking others at will? In case someone gets angry and happens to carry a gun, people are going to be killed.

To avoid tragic death, everyone has their unique way of survival, and the most important thing is not to look for trouble.

"One kilometer in three and a half minutes, although the results are not very good, it is a lot better compared to my previous life, and there seems to be a lot of room for my speed."

Li Wei looked at the high-hanging sun in the sky through the glass: "Is it because I am in a place that can be exposed to sunlight, so I have gained super endurance and resilience?"

Unlike the 100-meter sprint, which pays more attention to explosive power, the thousand-meter full spring is based on strength and endurance.  

Now, because of the sunlight, Li Wei didn't feel tired for half an hour and he didn't know the upper limit of his endurance.

The kilometer speed tested under the tester was bound to be inaccurate.

A 100-meter sprint might be able to accurately test his performance but this kind of test which has a very small probability of breaking the world record is not suitable for a gym with many people.

His speed and endurance could not be measured but Li Wei did get a more accurate figure in terms of strength.

Weigh 65 kg, shoulder press 50 kg, bench press 73, squat 94, deadlift 107. If calculated according to the formula on the table, his strength data at this time is only at the mid-range level, which is completely inferior to those who exercise all year round.

Li Wei doesn't know the physical data of the original body but in terms of his expectations, this data is much better than him who was weak in his previous life.

He has changed from a frail and mildly short-sighted boy to a strong, sturdy, and well-person.
