1. The End of Superheroes
"If this is a nightmare, then I'd better wake up quickly."
Alex walked on Spadina Avenue in New York like a walking zombie. The dazzling sunshine shone on Alex's body, but it could not dispel the gloom in his heart. Even if he was on the busiest street in New York, Alex's heart did not have any ups and downs. For him, it seemed like everything was out of tune.
Alex was not from this world. He has also forgotten how he came to this world. It was like he had a hangover. When he opened his eyes, he just found himself lying on the side street with a bunch of homeless people.
It has been a month since he came to this world. As he collected more and more information, Alex's heart fell deeper and deeper into despair. He tightened the hold on the shoulder bag, as if the contents in the bag could bring him some comfort. A sense of security has been out of fashion for a long time.For Alex, the bag contained all of his wealth.
The bag was picked up, and so were the contents. After coming to this world, Alex was actually very excited at first. Time travel only existed in novels or animations. If he could experience it personally, he would be ahead of 99.9999% of the people in the world in his previous life.
Especially when Alex saw the word "Stark" in the newspaper, Alex became even more excited.
Stark,Alex, who has watched many Marvel shows, was very familiar with this surname. Tony Stark, Iron Man, no one else in New York can have this surname except him. The name was plastered on the front page of the Weekly World Enquiry.
But when Alex looked down, the title that came into view made his breath stop for a second.
[The separatist group Avengers was destroyed! Tony Stark, the leader of the terrorist organization, was killed in action.]
'What?' Alex's eyelids were twitching, and his hands holding the newspaper were trembling slightly. He couldn't believe what he saw.
'Are the Avengers a seperatist group? Tony Stark turned into a terrorist? And, he's dead?'
Alex didn't have time to think too much about it. He continued to look down, trying to find more clues.

The incident happened in California many days ago. With the last Avengers Quinjet being hit head-on by a Patriot missile, the separatist organization 'Avengers' has been eliminated. The Quinjet was carrying various veterans of the Avengers. Their positions was exposed when they evacuated their stronghold, which also caused them to not survive the attack and all of them died.
Tony Stark was originally a scientific genius with hundreds of billions of dollars, but after he was injured by a grenade, he made a metal suit. He changed his name to Iron Man and assembled a group of people. The separatists created the terrorist organization 'Avengers' and began to rebel against the current President of the USA, President X.
It is reported that the people in the Avengers all "possessed unique skills" and were extremely talented people in various fields. This include "Guru" Stephen Strange, scientist Hank Pym and his wife, Thor who claims to be the reincarnation of Thor, etc. But at this moment, the organization that attempted to subvert President X's totalitarian rule has long since died, and all that's left is some small groups.
Four days later, Zhang Yi saw the execution scene of Clint Barton, codenamed 'Hawkeye', on the street. He was betrayed on the way to escape and his identity was exposed. Even though he had excellent fighting skills and strong combat effectiveness, he was exhausted when faced with a steady stream of soldiers rushing up to him.
Bang!
With the sound of a gunshot, Clint Barton, who was kneeling on the street, was shot in the head. He was still wearing the purple suit that represented his identity. Blood flowed, and the people watching around screamed. They were very excited to see such a wonderful scene. After all, this is the Avenger who has given President X a headache for a long time. Such people were rare, let alone an execution of one.
As for why these 'Avengers' risked their lives to launch a revolution and overthrow President. Alex, who was standing in the crowd watching all this couldn't understand.
'Why? What is happening in this world? '
'Why did Professor X, the founder of the X-Men, become an tyrant? '
'Why didn't Iron Man's suit detected the Patriot missile being fired at them? '
'Why didn't Doctor Strange used magic? '
'Why did Thor get killed by a missile while wielding that useless hammer?'
Alex stared at Hawkeye's body, unable to calm down for a long time. He just felt that everything was so strange and scary. At this moment, he didn't even care about the nausea he felt when he saw a dead person for the first time.
"What kind of world have I come to?"
In the next few days, Alex continued to wander, and based on the memories of his previous life in his mind, he began to search for clues in this broken world.
Since he is an illegal immigrant and has no money, Alex can only join the team of beggars to prevent himself from starving to death. However, this status also had great benefits because there were many people on the team of scavengers carrying information about this world that many ordinary people didn't know.
For example, in the previous attack on the Avengers, it was the former Avengers member 'Scarlet Witch' who betrayed them. In order to protect herself, this woman betrayed the organization and told President X a lot of the Avengers' intelligence and strongholds.
I'm afraid Tony Stark would never have imagined that the culprit that caused the Avengers' annihilation came from within, right?
The porn star known as "Enchantress" killed her producer, Namor because he was a king of Atlantis who deceived her feelings. This matter made the headline on all tabloids that night and was also talked about by beggars.
It turns out that Washington D.C., has now become a no-management jurisdiction, filled with various gangs. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the most chaotic place in the world.
Alex was originally going to take a look, but several beggars stopped him and told Alex that it was 'hell', which was even scarier than the real hell. If he didn't want to die in a gang conflict, or be eaten by those mutant monsters. It is best to stay away from it. Don't go there in this life, and don't even think about it.
This is a world comparable to a nightmare. All the superheroes and supervillains in Alex's memory have changed. They have become a chapter with the most painful ending. The methods that originally enabled them to obtain superpowers, became the main culprit in their fall.
Like a curse, in this world, all superpowered heroes had no good ending, even those aliens.
Akira didn't forget that last night a beggar told him a story about how the Kree interstellar army was bombed into space junk by nuclear bombs.
After the discussion ended, Alex stopped in front of a house. There was a 'Closed for Auction' sign on the door of the house. Alex paused, took out two pieces of wire from his bag, put them into the door lock, fiddled with them a few times, and the door opened.
No one will take care of the houses that have been closed for auction until they are sold. This also gives many beggars an opportunity. After all, no one wants to sleep in the street when they can sleep in a house.
The previous owner of this house was a man named Ben Parker. His poor nephew messed up a chemical experiment and was bitten by an irradiated spider. His nephew suffered from a terrible disease, and finally his body was found on the street after causing the death of his family.
Opening the door, Alex quickly entered the room. He looked outside while closing the door without leaving any trace. After making sure that there was no one following him outside, he locked the door.
"You're back, how's the harvest?"
As soon as the door was closed, a figure appeared next to Alex. In just the blink of an eye, Alex didn't notice how he appeared, but Alex didn't show any surprise. Obviously, it wasn't the first time he had done this.
"I told you, don't use your super speed casually anymore." Alex pushed the man away and walked towards the living room without looking back.
"I'm so bored. You go out for several days at a time. Besides, I'm in this house and I shouldn't be discovered."
After hearing this, Alex turned around and looked directly at the silver-haired man in front of him, and spoke.
"Really? Have you forgotten how you were captured before? Pietro, what do you want to lose this time, your left leg or your right leg? Isn't losing your left hand enough to deter you?"
