On the other side, Stark still found Wei En in the corridor of the Sanctum. At this time, his appearance was intact, but Stark narrowed his eyes. He stood at the corner of the corridor and pressed a button on his watch lightly.

At this time, Jiaweisi, who was listening to Wei En talk about how he outsmarted the Goddess of Death, coughed twice and said, "Sorry, Dr. Wei En, Mr. Howard, who just returned, wants to see the latest model of armor. I'll go over there first. If possible, please come to Stark Tower in a few days, and we will talk in detail..."

Wei En seemed to be in a good mood. He smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Go ahead, I'll go to your place for a drink another day..."

Jiaweisi controlled the latest iron armor and walked toward the corner. After Stark entered the armor, Jiaweisi sent him the recording of Wei En telling the story just now.

At first, Stark listened with great interest, until he heard Wei En taking one of his arms to find the Goddess of Death. He didn't understand, but he was greatly shocked, so he said to Jiaweisi, "Are you sure this isn't him talking nonsense???"

"Sir, no matter whether Dr. Wei En is talking nonsense or not, this shows that his current mental state is definitely not healthy. If he didn't take one of his arms to find the Goddess of Death, it means he might have had hallucinations. If he really did so, the injury on his soul would probably be more serious..."

"Change me to the magic energy core!" Stark said decisively.

Jiaweisi changed the core to magic energy, but he didn't upgrade immediately, but found Loki, who was still in a daze until now, and said to him, "Let's go to Asgard together, and then upgrade to above the universe. I want to look ahead on the timeline."

Loki nodded and said, "However, I have to pick up Helen first. My mother is going crazy because she can't see her granddaughter."

"It's a granddaughter." Stark said while directing Jiaweisi to bring Helen over. After a while, Helen was brought over by the mecha. Before coming, she was holding a book in her hand. After Helen landed, she pushed her glasses and said, "... What's wrong?"

Stark didn't look at her, but first looked at the book in her hand, and then discovered that it was actually a book on cosmic dynamics, simply put, it was about how to build rocket engines.

Immediately after, Stark thought of a more troublesome problem, so he turned to Loki and said, "My parents are resurrected, so the problem is, how do I explain Helen to them?"

"Hmm..." Loki hesitated and said, "I can act as a female first, but if so, how do you explain Pepper to them? You can't say we divorced and you found a new love!"

"No, no, this is absolutely impossible!" Stark immediately denied, "My mother will go crazy. She will say I am an irresponsible husband and father!"

Stark covered his forehead, feeling his head buzzing. He knew that Helen's background problem would explode sooner or later. Loki thought for a while and then suggested, "Why not push it to Wei En? Anyway, it was him who did it."

"Come on, he's not like you, he's a man, isn't that even more outrageous?"

"Who said that?" Loki turned his eyes and said, "There are so many personalities in his Tower of Thought, who knows if there are female personalities? And he is a mass of mist anyway, isn't gender up to him?"

Stark sighed deeply and said, "Just now, Maria was happy that I made such a deep friend. If I tell her this is love, she will be even crazier!"

Stark shook his head and said, "Forget it, let's not talk about this. Let's first figure out how much price Wei En paid to resurrect my parents..."

The two took the Rainbow Bridge together to Asgard, sent Helen to Frigga first, and then the two upgraded to above the universe together. Loki also helped Stark cover the fluctuations brought about at that moment, while Stark looked forward along the timeline.

And then, he saw the scene of Wei En taking his arm to find the Goddess of Death.

After Stark came down from above the universe, he covered his forehead again and said, "Between me and Wei En, one of us must be crazy! Could I be having hallucinations???"

Loki looked at him, and Stark said, "Wei En really cut off a part of his soul to exchange for the resurrection of my parents, and judging from the energy fluctuations of that part, it was a very strong force."

Stark narrowed his eyes and said, "... Why would it be like this?"

Loki hesitated. Standing from the perspective of a bystander, he remembered Wei En's psychological treatment of him before, so he asked, "Did you mention anything when you were confiding in him?"

Stark thought about it, but he actually couldn't remember what he had said. He wasn't very clear-headed when his anxiety disorder broke out, but now judging by logic, he felt that his speech definitely couldn't be separated from a few things—money, male virility, and him and his dad.

Then, Stark said to himself as if he thought of something:

"I think it is very likely that you mentioned your parents too many times during psychological treatment. Wei En's ordinary language guidance had no effect, and he felt you were too painful, so he was willing to pay such a great price to resurrect your parents."

Stark narrowed his eyes and said, "... Just now, I saw that there was always a wound on Wei En's neck. The injury on his soul didn't heal at all. The wound on his body is gone, probably because he didn't want us to see it..."

Loki advised on the side, "I think you shouldn't let him go like this. Knowing that he might have mental problems, yet not taking any tough measures and letting him do whatever he wants, isn't deterioration a matter of course?"

Stark sighed and very rarely directly affirmed Loki's suggestion. He said, "We always put Wei En in the position of a doctor, accustomed to finding him whenever we have any troubles."

"I don't even need to think to know that Steve, Peter, Ma Te, that group in the Anquan Bureau, and mutants must go to him every day to confide in all kinds of trivial problems. This group of people is already full of trouble, a bunch of messes, and they can't even explain it clearly. It would be strange if Wei En wasn't exhausted to the point of mental disorder."

The two walked all the way to Xiangong, Loki hugged his staff and said, "Anyway, if it were me, I would definitely force him to be hospitalized for treatment for a period of time."

"The problem is here, even if it were you, can you force him to be hospitalized for treatment?" Stark turned to look at Loki and said, "Who can lock him in the hospital? I'm afraid even if Odin came, it wouldn't work, right?"

"The All-Father would only strike with a thunderbolt when facing such a problem, letting us roll to the front line to fight for two days, and all diseases would be cured." Loki shrugged his shoulders, his tone had a faint self-mockery, but it also showed that he had already let go.

"Your Asgardian way of curing diseases is too rough. Even if Odin really gave Wei En a strike, what you would get would only be a series of roundabout compensation bills." Stark shook his head:

"I know Wei En too well, he is a money-grubber who doesn't care about his life."

"Then... you just make him have no money to earn, wouldn't he be able to rest?" Loki narrowed his eyes, and the belly full of bad water of the God of Deception began to surge again.

Loki knew deeply that as a god of evil, he couldn't help with curing diseases, but if he wanted to talk about how to arrange conspiracies against others' weaknesses, he had something to say.

"Wei En will treat you, and he sacrifices his own time and health to treat you, which shows that he really likes this job and can get happiness from it."

"However, too much happiness is like poison, just like what you humans call... what is it? Drugs? Yes, it's drugs!"

"The continuous pleasure will make him want more and more, to the point of completely ignoring his own physical and mental state, and exhausting himself."

"He would do such outrageous things, nothing more than because he felt that ordinary language guidance could no longer be considered treatment. He began to adopt special means outside the specifications, wanting to solve the problem from the root, but he didn't care at all whether he would be injured because of this."

Stark looked at Loki, who had reached this conclusion, with some surprise, and said, "I didn't see it, you and Wei En have such a good relationship?"

Loki shook his head and said, "Don't forget what I rely on to eat. The God of Deception himself is to understand the other party's psychology, and according to the other party's psychological weaknesses, create various hallucinations, making the other party collapse on their own."

"Wei En walked to this step today, mainly because of his greed." Loki finalized, "At the beginning, the feedback brought by ordinary hypnosis and language guidance was enough to satisfy him."

"And later, simply being limited to the psychological clinic was not enough. He began to plan more and bigger conspiracies, satisfying everyone's needs, making your psychology healthy from the root, and changing from a psychologist to the spiritual mentor of superheroes."

"Later, even this couldn't satisfy him. He began to promote the progress of all mankind, constructing a greater ideal to replace your somewhat fragile spiritual pillars, solving the loopholes in your hearts from the most fundamental level."

"At the same time, he also used social development and resource acquisition to temporarily bridge some contradictions, making your mental state more and more stable and your psychological defenses stronger."

"But in the end, such treatment feedback couldn't satisfy him either, so he even began to burn himself, wanting to make up for all the regrets of everyone..."

Loki sighed, shook his head, and said, "But this is actually impossible to do at all."

"Just like, your parents are back, but can the period when they ignored you in your memory be erased? Can the memory of you being sad for their death be deleted? Can the differences in personality and educational concepts between you disappear?"

Stark also sighed lightly and said, "This is impossible. I can even think 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 doesn't need to be cured."

"But Wei En, his 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.

"Precisely because this is a completely impossible goal, the final result is that Wei En holds this endless greed to burn himself, which will instead become the biggest regret in everyone's life."

"Then what do you think we should do?" Stark stopped his steps, looked at Loki, and asked for his opinion seriously, because he found that Loki's attainments in psychology were much higher than everyone else except Wei En.

"Still the same sentence, if he wants to make money, then make him have no money to earn, and he will naturally be able to rest." Loki lifted his lips, showing a somewhat fierce expression, and then said, "Sometimes, I also support the All-Father's philosophy. Gentleness will only lead to chronic death, and long pain is worse than short pain."

"If you don't force him to rest, he will never rest. Since that's the case, it's better to make him have nothing to do, and he can only go to rest."

Stark thought about it and said, "He is willing to pay such a great price for me, for all of us, so we should also take on the responsibility of saving him."

"This is not just talk..." Stark lowered his eyelids and said in a firm tone, "To achieve this, first of all, we must let that group of idiots not go to Wei En again to talk about those trivial things."

"Not only that, you have to ensure that anyone around him will no longer go to him for treatment, let him get sufficient rest, let the threshold return to a normal state, instead of endless craving for stimulation."

"Just like you are detoxifying an addict." Loki summarized.

Stark's fingers moved, took a deep breath, and said to Jiaweisi, "... Gather all of Wei En's friends, I have something to say to them!"

Half an hour later, in the Sanctum, Wei En, who had just finished telling his story, received several calls one after another.

"Hello? I am Wei En, oh, Nick, what's wrong? Did something happen to the Anquan Bureau? I'll go over there right away... What did you say??? !!! I was fired??? What nonsense are you talking about?!! Hello? Hello?!"

"I am... I am Wei En, Jiaweisi, what's wrong? Is Tony... what? I am no longer serving as the psychological consultant for the Stark Group? You want to fire me?? !! No, wait a minute, what did I do wrong? I don't have any work errors, how can you... Hello?! Hello?!!"

"Hello? Sanctum? Don't tell me you are going to... you also want to fire me? !!!! Are you crazy?!! It's almost Christmas!! Our new season member gifts... Hello?? Hello hello?? !!"

"Hello?! Loki! I am Wei En! This group of people is crazy!!! You don't even know what they... what? You are very busy??? Wait a minute! Hello? Hello? Hello hello?!!"

Putting down the phone, Wei En was stunned on the spot, as if struck by lightning.
