Chapter 1047 Shocking the Ordinary People (Twenty-Four)
On the other side, Stark still found Schiller in the corridor of the Sanctuary. His appearance was intact at this time, but Stark narrowed his eyes. He stood at the corner of the corridor and gently pressed a button on his watch.
At this time, Jarvis, who was listening to Schiller's story about how he outsmarted the goddess of death, coughed twice and said, "Sorry, Dr. Schiller, Mr. Howard, who just returned, wants to see the latest model of armor. I'll go there first. If possible, please come to Stark Building in a few days and we will talk in detail..."
Schiller seemed to be in a good mood. He smiled and waved his hand and said, "Go, I'll go to your place for a drink another day..."
Jarvis manipulated the latest steel suit and walked to the corner. After Stark entered the suit, Jarvis sent him the recording of Schiller's story just now.
At first, Stark was listening with great interest until he heard Schiller holding one of his arms to find the goddess of death. He didn't understand, but he was shocked, so he said to Jarvis: "Are you sure he's not talking nonsense???"
"Sir, whether Dr. Schiller is talking nonsense or not, it means that his mental state is definitely not healthy now. If he didn't hold one of his arms to find the goddess of death, it means that he may have hallucinations. If he really did this, his soul injury might be more serious..."
"Change the magic energy core for me!" Stark said decisively.
Jarvis replaced the core of the mecha with magic energy, but he did not upgrade it immediately. Instead, he found Loki, who was still in a daze, and said to him: "Let's go to Asgard together, and then upgrade to the universe. I want to take a look at the front of the timeline."
Loki nodded, and then said: "But I have to take Helen over first. My mother is going crazy because she can't see her granddaughter."
"It's my granddaughter." Stark said while directing Jarvis to bring Helen. After a while, Helen was brought over by the mecha. She was holding a book in her hand before she came. After Helen landed, she pushed her glasses and said: "...What's wrong?"
Stark didn't go to see her, but looked at the book in her hand first, and then found that it was a book on cosmic dynamics, which simply talks about how to build a rocket engine.
Then, Stark thought of a more troublesome problem, so he turned to look at Loki and said: "My parents are resurrected, so the question is, how can I explain Helen to them?"
"Well..." Loki hesitated and said: "I can act as a woman first, but if so, how can you explain Pepper to them? You can't say that we are divorced and you find a new love!"
"No, no, no, this is absolutely not possible!" Stark immediately denied: "My mother will go crazy, she will say that I am an irresponsible husband and father!"
Stark covered his forehead and felt his head buzzing. He knew that Helen's life experience would explode sooner or later. Loki thought about it and suggested: "How about pushing it to Schiller? Anyway, he did it."
"Come on, he is not like you, he is a man People, isn't that even more outrageous? "
"Who said that?" Loki rolled his eyes and said, "There are so many personalities in his thinking tower, who knows if there is a female personality? Moreover, he is originally a cloud of fog, and it is up to him to decide whether it is a man or a woman?"
Stark sighed deeply and said, "Just now, Maria was happy that I made such a deep friend. If I tell her that this is love, she will be even crazier!"
Stark shook his head and said, "Forget it, let's not talk about this first. Let's first figure out how much Schiller spent to resurrect my parents..."
The two took the Rainbow Bridge together and came to Asgard. First, Helen was sent to Frigga, and then the two were upgraded to the universe together. Loki fluid helped Stark cover up the fluctuations brought about by that moment, and Stark looked forward to the timeline.
Then, he saw the scene of Schiller holding his arm and looking for the goddess of death.
After Stark came down from the universe, he covered his forehead and said, "One of Schiller and I must be crazy! Am I hallucinating???"
Loki looked at him, and Stark said, "Schiller really cut off a part of his soul in exchange for the resurrection of my parents, and judging from the energy fluctuations of that part, it is a very strong force."
Stark frowned and said, "...Why is this happening?"
Loki hesitated. He stood from the perspective of an observer and remembered Schiller's previous psychological treatment of him, so he asked, "Did you mention anything when you confided in him?"
Stark thought about it, but he couldn't remember what he had said. When he had an anxiety attack, his consciousness was not very clear, but now he felt that his speech must be inseparable from several things-money, male virility, and him and his father.
Then, Stark muttered to himself as if he had thought of something, "It wouldn't be me at that time..."
"I think it's very likely that you mentioned your parents too many times during the psychotherapy, and Schiller's ordinary language guidance was ineffective. He felt that you were in too much pain, so he was willing to pay such a high price to revive your parents."
Stark stretched out his hands and wiped his face and said, "Besides, I just saw that Schiller has always had a wound on his neck. The wound on his soul has not healed at all. The wound on his body is gone. I guess he doesn't want us to see it..."
Loki advised from the side: "I think you shouldn't let him go like this. Knowing that he may have mental problems, you don't take some tough measures. Let him do whatever he wants. Isn't it reasonable for him to get worse?"
Stark sighed and rarely directly affirmed Loki's suggestion. He said: "We always put Schiller in the position of a doctor and are used to going to him for any troubles. . "
"I don't even need to think about it, I know that Steve, Peter, Matt, the people from SHIELD, and the mutants must come to him every day to confide all kinds of trivial problems. These people are troubled by a lot of things, and it's hard to explain them. It would be strange if Schiller didn't get mentally ill because of being exhausted."
The two walked all the way to Asgard. Loki held the staff and said, "Anyway, if it were me, I would definitely force him to be hospitalized for a period of time."
"That's the problem. Even if it's you, can you force him to be hospitalized for treatment?" Stark turned his head and looked at Loki and said, "Who can lock him up in the hospital? I'm afraid even Odin can't help it, right?"
"When faced with this kind of problem, the father of the gods will only strike with thunder and let us go to the front line to fight for two days, and all diseases will be cured." Loki shrugged his shoulders, with a hint of self-mockery in his tone, but it also shows that he has let it go.
"Your Asgardian treatment method is too rough. Even if you really let Odin give Schiller a blow, all you will get is a series of roundabout compensation bills." Stark shook his head and said:
"I know Schiller too well. He only wants money and not his life."
"Then...why don't you just make him lose money?" Loki narrowed his eyes, and the evil water in his stomach as the god of fraud began to surge again.
Loki knew very well that as an evil god, he could not help with the treatment, but when it came to how to plot against other people's weaknesses, he had something to say.
"Schiller will go to treat you, and he will sacrifice his time and health to treat you, which means that he really likes this job and can get happiness from it."
"But too much happiness is like poison, just like what you humans call... what is it called? Drugs? Yes, drugs!"
"The endless pleasure will make him want more and more, to the point that he completely ignores his physical and mental conditions and exhausts himself."
"He would do such an extraordinary thing, simply because he feels that ordinary language guidance is no longer a treatment. He began to take some special measures beyond the standard to solve the problem from the root, but it was completely ineffective. I don't care if I get hurt. "
Stark looked at Loki who came to this conclusion with some surprise, and said: "I didn't see that you and Schiller have such a good relationship?"
Loki shook his head and said: "Don't forget, what do I rely on for a living? The God of Fraud itself understands the other party's psychology and creates various illusions based on the other party's psychological weaknesses, so that the other party can break down by itself."
"Schiller will come to this point today, mainly because of his greed." Loki made the final decision, he said: "At the beginning, the feedback brought by ordinary hypnosis and language guidance was enough to satisfy him."
"Later, simply confining to the psychological clinic was not enough, he began to plan More and bigger conspiracies to meet everyone's needs, so that your psychology can become healthy from the root, from a psychologist to a spiritual mentor for superheroes. "
"Later, this alone could not satisfy him, so he began to promote the progress of the entire human race and build a greater ideal to replace your original fragile spiritual pillars, and solve the loopholes in your mind from the most fundamental level. "
"At the same time, he also used social development and resource acquisition to temporarily bridge some contradictions, so that your mental state became more and more stable and your psychological defenses became stronger. "
"But in the end, such treatment feedback could not satisfy him, so he even Start burning yourself, want to make up for all the regrets of everyone..."
Loki sighed, shook his head and said: "But this is actually impossible."
"Just like, your parents are back, but can you erase the time when they ignored you in your memory? Can you delete the memory of your sadness for their death? Can the differences between your personalities and educational concepts disappear?"
Stark also sighed softly and said: "This is impossible. I can imagine that Howard and I will definitely quarrel again, Maria will definitely worry about my marriage, and maybe we will have differences on Helen's education. "
"This is not a disease at all, and it does not need to be treated. "
"But Schiller's excessive greed makes him want to create a completely perfect future for every one of his patients, every person who can provide him with emotional feedback." Loki emphasized.
"It is precisely because this is a completely impossible goal, so the final result is that Schiller's endless greed will burn himself, which will become the biggest regret in everyone's life."
"Then what do you think we should do?" Stark stopped and looked at Loki, asking for his opinion seriously, because he found that Loki's attainments in psychology are much higher than everyone except Schiller.
"Again, if he wants to make money, let him have no money to make, and he will naturally be able to rest." Loki lifted his lips, revealing a somewhat fierce expression, and then said: "Sometimes, I also support the idea of the Father of the Gods. Appeasement will only lead to slow death, and it is better to suffer a short pain than a long pain."
"If you don't force him to rest, he will never rest. In this case, it is better to let him have nothing to do and can only rest."
Stark thought for a while, and then said: "He is willing to pay such a high price for me and all of us, so we should also take the responsibility of saving him."
"This is not just talk..." Stark lowered his eyes and said in a firm tone: "To do this, first of all, we must let those idiots stop going to Schiller and talking about those trivial things."
"Not only that, you have to ensure that no one around him will go to him for treatment, so that he can get enough rest and let the threshold return to a normal state, instead of endlessly craving for stimulation."
"Just like you help drug addicts quit drugs." Loki concluded.
Stark moved his fingers, took a deep breath, and said to Jarvis: "...Gather all Schiller's friends, I have something to tell them!"
Half an hour later, in the Sanctuary, Schiller, who had just finished telling his story, received several calls one after another.
"Hello? This is Schiller, oh, Nick, what's wrong? Is there something wrong with SHIELD? I'll be there right now... What did you say???!!! I was fired??? What nonsense are you talking about?!! Hello? Hello?!"
"I'm... I'm Schiller, Jarvis, what's wrong? Tony, is it... what? I'm no longer the psychological consultant of Stark Group? You want to fire me??!! No, wait, what did I do wrong? I didn't make any mistakes at work, how could you... Hello?! Hello?!!"
"Hello? Sanctum Sanctorum? Don't tell me you're going to... You're going to fire me too?!!! Are you crazy?!!! Christmas is coming soon!! Our new season membership gift... Hello?? Hello??!!"
"Hello?! Loki! This is Schiller! These people are crazy!!! You don't even know they... What? You're busy??? Wait a minute! Hello? Hello? Hello?!"
After hanging up the phone, Schiller froze in place, as if struck by lightning.
