"Ding! Congratulations, Host, for the victory in battle! You have gained 180,000 points, bringing your current total to 221,000 points."
"Ding! Congratulations, Host! You have gained a total of 30 billion reputation points, bringing your current total to 30.1 billion reputation points."
The battle with Zod and the Kryptonian army had been challenging, but the rewards were immense.
What thrilled Alex Rivers even more was her overflowing reputation points!
Globally, nearly everyone watched the battle live on television, with each viewer contributing anywhere from 0 to 100 reputation points.
Those providing 90 or more reputation points were undoubtedly Alex's true fans.
In their hearts, Alex was like a goddess of war from myths—saving the world single-handedly. Many developed feelings of faith and admiration; to them, Alex was a divine protector of Earth, a goddess among mortals.
Arriving at Bruce Wayne's mansion, Alex and a few others gathered at the dining table, enjoying delicious food and wine. Yet, all eyes were on her.
Batman Bruce, the young Flash Barry, Old Barry, and Supergirl Kara all looked at her with curiosity.
Alex smiled and began, "I come from another world. In that world, I'm also Superwoman, and I can travel between different universes..."
After her brief explanation, she added, "If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I'll answer the best I can."
"You're from another universe? I'm the same as you," Old Barry said.
Young Barry asked, confused, "I reversed time so many times, but you never appeared. Each loss drove me nearly crazy."
"Barry wanted me to give up, but thankfully I persevered," Young Barry said, glancing at Old Barry. "The last time, your appearance brought us hope for victory."
Old Barry lowered his head, feeling guilty.
"You are incredibly powerful—we seemed useless in this battle," Kara admitted, feeling frustrated by her limited role. "It was all thanks to you."
"Kara, sunbathe more and gain experience—you'll become stronger," Alex reassured her, sensing Kara's frustration. "This victory relied mainly on my strength, but your help, especially Barry's, was crucial in defeating Zod."
Alex looked at Young Barry.
"Me?" Young Barry pointed to himself.
"Yes, your persistence in reversing time caused instability in the multiverse, allowing me to cross over with less energy," Alex explained.
Young Barry smiled, relieved he hadn't given up, successfully saving his world.
"Barry, what are your plans?" Young Barry asked Old Barry.
"I plan to leave immediately and return to my world. I've seen my mother, and my wish is fulfilled," Old Barry said calmly.
"Barry, you could find a world where you've died, but your mother is alive. She'd be happy to see you," Alex suggested.
"That's a good idea. I'll consider it."
...For already opened worlds, crossing over doesn't cost points, but the system's crossing function has a fifteen-day cooldown unless points are spent to shorten it.
Alex didn't want to waste points; with no major battles in the Marvel Universe, she planned to clean up this world's villains, earning reputation and points.
Alex flew over the city, patrolling and communicating with the System.
"System, how many points does it cost to shorten the crossing time?"
"Ding! Host needs to spend 10,000 points to shorten the time by one day."
"System, open the Reputation Store for me to see."
"Okay, Host."
A sci-fi screen appeared in her mind. The System Store seemed to have everything imaginable.
- Cola: 1 Reputation Point
- Hamburger: 3 Reputation Points
- Delicious Roast Chicken: 300 Reputation Points
- Underwear: 100 Reputation Points
- One kilogram of Kryptonite: 100,000 Reputation Points
- Terminators T-X Intelligent Robot: 10 million Reputation Points
- Enhanced Artificial Intelligence Skynet System: 5 billion Reputation Points
- System Space: 5 billion Reputation Points
- System Space Expansion Card (each card can expand by 100,000 cubic kilometers): 100 million Reputation Points
- Enhanced Wolverine Healing Ability (Host exclusive version, perfectly compatible with Kryptonian bloodline): 10 billion Reputation Points
"System, can anything be bought?" Alex asked, noting the seemingly endless product list.
"Host, as long as your reputation points are sufficient, anything from all the heavens and myriad worlds can be bought. Host can search for it yourself."
Finally, Alex purchased the Enhanced Wolverine Healing Ability, the Enhanced Artificial Intelligence Skynet System, system space, and 99 system space Expansion Cards.
"Ding, a total of 29.9 billion reputation points have been consumed, with 110 million reputation points remaining."
After communicating with the System, Alex activated her Super Vision, swiftly patrolling the city from above—soon finding areas where villains were active and disaster zones needing aid.
At that moment, Kara flew over, the two Superheroines soaring side by side, each in their distinctive Supergirl uniforms.
"Let's have a competition and see who finishes their tasks faster today," Kara suggested with a smile, seemingly finding her purpose on Earth as its guardian.
"That's a good idea, but I'm definitely going to win!" Alex smiled knowingly.
The two wasted no time, arriving at their respective locations within seconds... Besides dealing with villains and rescuing people in disasters, Alex spent the rest of her time flying into space to sunbathe and sleep, constantly growing stronger... Fifteen days quickly passed, and Alex went to the Kryptonian spaceships in space to instruct her subordinates.
She planned to keep these subordinates here temporarily and transfer them to a suitable world when she had more points.
However, she intended to take the Kryptonian female adjutant with her. Helping her fight was secondary; her main reason was Faora's good looks.
"Faora, you will cross over with me and stay by my side from now on." Alex took Faora's hand and commanded the System to open the portal to the Marvel Universe.
This time, Faora didn't resist. She knew her strength was inferior to Alex's, so she simply gave up. "As you command, Queen."
