Chapter 524: Schiller's Origin Story (Part 2)
Looking at Schiller who seemed very irritable, Loki was not angry. He smiled, sat down, put the briefcase on his legs and said, "Did the two plans I gave you before fail?"
"Not only the two plans you gave, the Sanctuary held two meetings yesterday and put forward more than a dozen sales plans. The other party showed interest in only two, and finally failed to reach an agreement."
Schiller covered one eye with his palm and sighed, "This is really the most difficult customer I have ever met."
Loki sat down, patted Schiller on the shoulder and said, "Hold on, it's just one order anyway, I'll treat you to a hot spring under the World Tree after it's done."
Schiller took a deep breath and said, "Fortunately, they gave me a ready-made reason , so that I can live here and sleep well every day, otherwise, if I go to work at SHIELD during the day and dream about sales at night, I will be exhausted. "
"But it seems that they seem to have misunderstood something..." Loki looked up at the door where Steve left. Schiller shook his head to get rid of the sleepiness of just waking up from a dream, and then said: "Who cares, after I finish this death order and leave the hospital, they will forget about it in a few days..."
Loki opened his mouth and seemed to be hesitant to say something. He wanted to say that Steve's serious expression before leaving did not look like he would forget it in a few days, but seeing Schiller's irritable mood because of the frequent rejection of sales, he finally said nothing.
"...Are you really okay?" After hesitating for a long time, Loki still asked.
Because Schiller's expression now can't be said to be peaceful and peaceful, it can also be said to be gnashing of teeth.
Schiller took a deep breath and exhaled, then took another deep breath. After taking a few deep breaths slowly, he showed a fake smile and said, "I'm fine, I just want to kill someone."
"To be honest, I understand the concept of death you told me. It sounds interesting, but I don't think you need to be so concerned. After all, at this stage, her contribution to human civilization is not too great, and there is no need to be so anxious..."
Schiller crossed his arms and gritted his teeth and said, "Do you think I care whether she can bring benefits to human civilization now?"
Loki patted Schiller on the shoulder again and said, "Don't say it, I understand, I understand everything."
That's right, the reason why Schiller has symptoms of narcolepsy is because he is indeed sleepy, or dreaming.
After Schiller obtained the scale of judgment that can make harassing calls to death, he almost kept calling death's phone number to sell her.
At first, Death didn't respond at all, but later, probably because she was annoyed by Schiller, she began to convey some information in an obscure way, such as expressing affirmation or negation of some cooperation methods proposed by Schiller.
But the reason why Schiller was so irritable was that 99% of the methods were denied by Death.
Schiller was not a simple liar, and he would not consider the time cost. At this point, interests were no longer important. Schiller and Death were not only superior and inferior, but also life and death.
In addition, Schiller wanted to explore why Death didn't let him die?
If it is said that the deal between Death and Odin and Osiris was to enable them to bring more death, but the premise is that Odin and Osiris both hold a more pious attitude. It is better to say that they are working for her than trading with Death, and the same is true for Thanos.
It can be said that if Odin and Osiris harassed Death day and night like Schiller did, it is hard to say whether Asgard and the Egyptian pantheon can still exist now.
The concept of time of the immortal species is completely different from that of the short-lived species. The Hippopotamus Goddess would think that her child calling her once a week is already too frequent, but the Hippopotamus Goddess is not completely immortal, but only immortal, and her child only calls her once a week.
Death is an abstract concept, she is the real immortality, as long as the universe exists, she will always exist, and Schiller does not call her once a week, he calls her more than ten times a day.
Even so, Death was not annoyed by him to kill him directly, there must be some reason that Schiller did not know, for this reason, Schiller wanted to find out the secret of why the Death Kingdom did not accept him.
And to find out this secret, naturally he had to call Death, so Schiller did nothing else these days, whenever he had free time, he would sleep and dream, and then take the scale to call Death to harass him.
Of course, looking at his current performance, we can see that these two things are not going well. Death answers the phone, but most of the time it is Schiller who is talking alone, she occasionally responds, and most of the time she is silent.
Now, Schiller finally understood why Death could make Thanos so confused. If she had no reaction at all and remained silent, Schiller would probably have given up. But now, Death was clearly telling Schiller that she not only had personality and wisdom, but also could analyze the pros and cons of gains and losses.
What would it be like for an abstract concept to have a personality? How is her personality formed? Will she be affected by external environmental factors like humans? What is the difference between the psychological state of God's creation and that of nature? What kind of changes will it bring to the universe after mastering the abstract concept of near-infinite omnipotence, having likes and dislikes, and analyzing the pros and cons of gains and losses?
These questions made Schiller curious. In essence, Schiller, who represented the greedy characteristics of personality, was eager to take death as a research object and gain strength from analyzing her personality and emotional characteristics.
And a research object that was half-dead and rarely responded would make any researcher feel angry. Schiller was in a very angry state now.
Loki sensed this keenly, so he hurriedly threw down the plan and ran back to Asgard without looking back. On the way, he was still wondering, which unlucky guy would run into Schiller's gun? He must be squatting on the Rainbow Bridge on time to watch the fun.
Another person who knew the truth was the Supreme Sorcerer Strange, who was at the Avengers' base at a meeting chaired by Steve.
"... In summary, I think Schiller may have been stimulated, leading to the onset of mental illness, and the situation is not optimistic now."
Steve sighed, his face more serious than ever before, and he said: "In addition to considering the pain he may be suffering, we must also consider the damage that may be caused if he suddenly becomes mentally ill..."
As he spoke, he glanced at Stark, who clenched his fist against his lips, then coughed and said: "I admit that I shouldn't have stimulated him yesterday, but I didn't expect it to deteriorate so quickly."
"Can't we find a doctor?" Peter raised his hand and asked.
"That's the problem." Matt tapped the table with his fingers and said, "We can't find a doctor who can treat him now, and he may not cooperate with the treatment."
"Since yesterday, he has shown extremely strong aggressiveness in his communication with me. Today, he has developed symptoms of drowsiness, and seems to be more irritable, and has some symptoms of depression..."
"If it continues like this, his mental state may deteriorate step by step, and no one knows what it will become in the end."
Stark sighed and continued, "More importantly, mental problems are different from physical injuries. There is no way to use magical power to treat them..."
"Indeed, we basically have no way to affect people's mental state now, and even if there is, it may not be effective for Schiller."
"Ahem..." Strange cleared his throat, touched his face, and then said, "Are you really sure he has a mental problem?"
Matt and Steve looked at him together, and then Steve said, "Oh, I forgot, you were not there when we talked about the situation in Schiller's Mind Hall."
Steve spoke and repeated to Strange his childhood and teenage experiences that they had seen in Schiller's Mind Hall.
Hearing this, Strange showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.
Strange suddenly asked: "Have you noticed that there is a contradiction here?"
Stark and Steve looked at each other, both frowned, and then looked at Strange together.
"If according to what you said, Schiller may have suffered mental trauma in his childhood, and this trauma caused him to become an antisocial personality when he was a teenager..."
"But, the Schiller we met before was a normal person. You wouldn't say that at that time, all his normal performances were disguised as a murderer, right?"
"Impossible." Peter denied this first. He said, "I have lived with Dr. Schiller for a long time, and I have spider sense. If he was a disguise, I would definitely find it."
"I don't think so either." Matt also agreed. He said, "If he was really a murderer, there was no need to save me at that time."
"The mental problems he faced at that time were much more serious than now, so how did he get better?" Strange asked.
Several people looked at each other, and then looked at Strange together. Strange continued: "Or, if someone could cure Schiller, who had such serious mental problems at that time, then can he be cured now?"
Stark touched his chin, thought for a while, and then said: "It makes sense. Now it seems that he may have bipolar disorder, but his mental problems may have been more serious before. Who cured him?"
At this time, Strange suddenly said: "Do you still remember that when Schiller and I first met, I told you that he wore a ring?"
Everyone's eyes fell on Strange's face again, and Strange cleared his throat and said: "There is also the freezing technology that should not belong to the level of this era, and the huge salary of Schiller that Nick mentioned before, which is unknown..."
"But I remember that Dr. Schiller explained it." Peter scratched his head, recalled, and then said: "I remember that he told Dr. Connors that freezing his wife was a story of a friend of his. The friend was a cryogenics expert. It was precisely to freeze his wife who suffered from degenerative diseases that he invented such a powerful cryogenic technology..."
At this time, Stark stood up, summoned the battle suit, and then said: "Jarvis, help me search for the global cryogenics information and filter according to the conditions Peter just mentioned."
"Searching...Search completed..."
"No such person."
