Marvel: Meeting Carter and Getting Captain America's Even-Match Serum

Lin Mo transmigrates into the Marvel Cinematic Universe and binds himself to the "Quest for Knowledge" System. As long as he humbly seeks guidance from characters in the original story, he can unlock superpowers and legendary gear. But the System takes three years to load, so he keeps his head down and behaves himself, only daring to cut loose once he comes of age.

His first mentor is Sharon Carter. After a bout of "diligent study," a notification pops up: he's obtained a serum just like Captain America's, granting him an even match with anyone. He crushes a wineglass in his hand, his fists now hard as vibranium. Next, Dr. Helen Cho teaches him everything she knows, unlocking Triple-Transforming Drift and the Regeneration Cradle. May Parker gives him a late-night lesson in English pronunciation, directly unlocking Spider-Sense and monstrous strength. System notifications flood his screen. Looking at the warehouse packed with legendary gear, Lin Mo can barely keep the grin off his face.

Meanwhile, Tony Stark is still hammering away at scrap metal in a cave in Afghanistan, and Thanos is still nine years away from Earth. Lin Mo opens the Myriad Realms Mall and scans the list of people whose abilities he can unlock: Scarlet Witch, Invisible Woman, Lady Deathstrike...

"Who should I ask for guidance next? Maybe I should go to Kamar-Taj and discuss the folding of spacetime with the Ancient One?"
