Chapter 1887: The Madman's Journey (Sixty-Five)
On the other hand, although Schiller knew that Hydra was not a good teammate, it was still a useful tool. Schiller had actually reached a deal with Baron Hydra a long time ago. The content of the deal was also very simple. Schiller testified against Pierce, and Baron helped Schiller get rid of Iron Man.
This was actually still taking advantage of the information gap. After all, how could Baron Hydra know that Iron Man was the protagonist and how powerful he was? But in his opinion, Schiller's ability to help him get rid of Pierce was a rare opportunity.
In the previous conversation with Pierce, Schiller mentioned part of it, but did not elaborate. In fact, the grievances between Pierce and Baron can be traced back to decades ago, but if you talk about it in detail, it is nothing more than the grievances between the United States and Germany in World War II.
In short, Pierce once promised Baron to stop the US plan to aid the Soviet Union, but Pierce did not fulfill it. Baron felt that Pierce betrayed him and the German people, which led to the failure of the mustache.
As we all know, in the eyes of Nazi Germany, the most hateful thing was not the Soviet Union that fought the Great Patriotic War, but other countries that supported the Soviet Union at the most critical moment, or they were unwilling to admit that it was the giant bear that defeated them head-on, and would rather attribute the credit to others.
In fact, the Baron could have run away before Iron Man came, but in order to complete the content of the deal with Schiller, he chose to stay in Germany, which led to a series of tragedies afterwards.
Bringing all three parties together at the Hydra base in Germany, Schiller's plan officially began. First, he contacted T'Challa to close the net. The target of the net was none other than Eric, who was stirring up trouble in this universe.
Don't forget that Eric has been kidnapped to the German base by the Hydra agents under Pierce, which means that Eric has basically lost the power to resist, that is, as long as T'Challa comes, he can receive this dish.
This completely avoids T'Challa chasing Eric around the world, causing damage to Wakanda's international reputation.
As for Nick, he was able to catch the Hydra agents belonging to Pierce who kidnapped Eric and brought him to Germany immediately after he arrived. As the saying goes, there is no secret that cannot be investigated with modern interrogation methods.
Nick was originally troubled by the fact that although he suspected Pierce, he had no solid evidence. However, this group of agents was a ready-made witness. As long as he could get the clues of Pierce's work in Hydra from them, or simply let them testify against Pierce, then even if Pierce had disguised himself well before, the jury would not have too much sympathy for him.
In this way, T'Challa was spared the effort and directly caught Eric, the traitor, recovered the lost drawings of the Royal Institute, restored Wakanda's international reputation, and perhaps obtained clues about the vibranium dealer Klaue from Eric's interrogation.
When Pierce was desperate and sent people to kidnap him, Nick successfully caught his feet and got a group of witnesses who might identify Pierce.
If we talk about what Schiller got, Stark's shocked expression at this time is his best harvest. The reason why he drove the sheep together and teased a sheep was not to shear its wool, but to see the sheep panic.
After listening to Schiller's story, Stark was stunned for three minutes. After three minutes, he manipulated the Iron Man suit to take a step forward and punched Schiller in the cheek.
Schiller did not dodge.
Of course, everyone, including Eric and Nick, rushed up to stop Iron Man, but Stark was wearing a suit after all, and no one else knew much about this suit, and did not understand its power, so Stark broke free from everyone's grip without much effort.
He punched Schiller to the ground again. Schiller sighed on the ground, stretched out his hand and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the root of his palm, revealing an equally bad smile.
He lay on his side on the ground, turned his eyes to look at Stark and said: "Are you angry? I've said it before, Tony, you should pay the price for your useless heroic fantasies."
"I said I'm not a hero, but you made me pay the price for your stupidity of finally recognizing this fact. Is this the great hero Tony Stark who saves the world that you want?"
Stark stood there, his eyes full of shock and sadness. Schiller staggered to his feet, with blood on his forehead and mouth. He wiped his mouth again, stared at Stark with crazy eyes and said: "What do you think a hero is? You hide in the laboratory to build yourself a hero. "Can I save the world with a powerful suit of armor?"
"Or in your stereotypes, I, a poor little man who was persecuted and thrown into the dark world and unable to save myself, can't I resist and make a series of plans to turn the tide?"
"You always imagine yourself to be too powerful and noble, and see others as weak and cowardly, but you can never become a real hero who saves the world with this."
Schiller took a step forward, stretched out his bloody hand and placed it on Stark's visor, and looked into his eyes and said: "Tony, what I mean by getting rid of your childhood hero complex is not just to become a savior from being saved."
"You must be deeply aware that there are countless comrades in this world who can stand shoulder to shoulder with you. If you just keep despising them and fail to learn to truly know and believe in them, you are destined to be just that naive child who places his hopes on others."
"At the beginning, you watched your father walk out of that room again and again, and put all your emotions into resentment, resentment that he never wanted to stay, but you forgot that you never spoke."
"It is not shameful to beg. You must always understand that if you want to try to make someone change his mind, manipulation is an indispensable step, and the essence of manipulation is love."
"Call him and use love to make him stay, which not only makes up for the regrets that he may have left because of necessity, but also forces him to Have to face your love. "
"Walk into this vast sea of people, let everyone who passes by you and then turns around to walk side by side with you know that you understand them, let them know that you love them. "
"Then you will jump into the worldly suffering together, work together to fight against this unstoppable wave of reality, invest your abundant emotions in others, and get feedback as you deserve... Go, Tony, go and be the hero of your dreams. "
Iron Man clenched his fist covered with gauntlet tightly. He would not tell Schiller that when he said this, he remembered Howard's expression when he stood by the door and looked back at him countless times, and Stark's inner expression was always just anger and resentment, without any complaints or retention.
But at this moment, he deeply understood the power of showing his pain to others and showing weakness, so that he never doubted that Schiller was the mastermind behind this series of plans from beginning to end.
He felt that he did not have such power, and he should not have such power, because of the past he disclosed, because of the vulnerability he showed behind the strength.
But it turns out that this kind of fragility and alienation is the ultimate skill that attracts people to step into the trap step by step.
Is it a good thing to show weakness?
Stark never thought about this question before, because he would give a negative answer without thinking. He wanted to be stronger and smarter, treat everyone who was not as smart as him with contempt, and then either gain an advantage or let everyone else have no way to deal with his arrogant and arrogant attitude.
But Schiller showed him another situation. He told others about his weaknesses, showed his unstable past, and let the other party see his fragility, so he could never let go, so he took the initiative to do more.
But he called this a manifestation of love, perhaps the easiest way to gain the love of others.
Stark grabbed Schiller's wrist. He was about to say something when the alarm sounded in the mecha. Almost in an instant, a sharp buzzing sound broke through Stark's eardrum.
Under the cold and hazy sunlight in the high latitudes, he saw the coming of God, God, and himself.
He saw the horror of another greater wisdom appearing in his deepest dream, the shadow came over the earth, and then condensed into a figure not much different from him, but with much stronger power than him.
"Let him go."
He heard another voice that was exactly the same as his.
Stark looked intently and saw only white and blue mechas descending from the sky. The tail flames of the engines were almost imperceptible, but the low voice had enough deterrence to condense the already cold air around.
The Iron Devil descended on the earth.
The shadow of the endless mechanical army made Nick Fury and T'Challa both look up and stare at the air with serious faces, but Stark's attention was on the eyes of the sudden uninvited guest, who was exactly like him, staring at Schiller.
"Why didn't you run?" he heard the powerful Iron Man ask, "You would have damaged his body, you should have avoided it."
Schiller extended his thumb and deliberately wiped the blood next to his lips, turned his head and showed a bad smile to Stark, and said, "You are not as calm as you think about the stupid self in other universes, right?"
"Tony, what about the sense of superiority facing other universes? I thought you would stand high and watch it all until it's over."
"Now, it's over." The Iron Devil said in a cold tone.
Schiller Schiller dodged his teleportation, and the Iron Devil fell lower, almost close to the ground, but he still had a powerful energy field around him that people couldn't ignore. Just covering all the people and equipment present, the equipment with safety energy alarms kept ringing.
"You may wonder why there are two Iron Men here, but unfortunately, I come from another universe, just to track down the murderer..."
Before Stark finished speaking, an evil purple light appeared in the control center of Wakanda's spaceship, and this time, they formed a common combat formation for space battleships.
This long-silent trap suddenly appeared just to catch everyone off guard.
The Iron Devil obviously would not be hurt by these small spaceships, but if they went to the warriors and king of Wakanda and caused real casualties, then the biggest suspect would be the Iron Man who suddenly came, and Schiller and his team would not be able to get real help in this universe.
But unexpectedly, a huge aerospace mothership suddenly appeared in the sky, covering the sky and the sun. Nick sneered and said, "I got you."
