Chapter 1606

"When dealing with non-substantial organisms and non-group life forms in the universe, fully understanding their different sense of time and space from ours is a very important part. Especially humans or other short-lived species, their experience of time is different from the vast majority of long-lived species. We must notice this difference, rather than blindly substituting our own sense of time for the other party."

"There are many ways to make a fuss about the sense of time and space. For example, for humans, ten years is a very long process, occupying one-seventh or one-eighth of our lives. The long wait of ten years is unacceptable to most humans."

"But if the object is changed to Asgardian gods or other cosmic demons, ten years is a time too short to be short. If we say to a human 'wait for me for ten years,' that is almost expressing that you want to make a lifelong appointment with me. But if you go to a demon and say this sentence, they might only understand that you want to take a small nap before talking to them about this."

"This brings up another point that can be utilized, that is, when we understand their sense of time, but they don't understand ours, this information gap can be completely used to set traps for them in contracts..."

In front of the lecture hall of the Dream School, Shiler paced back and forth in front of the classroom while lecturing. The seats in front of the podium were packed with students, but they were not entirely young people reading in the Dream School, and not entirely humans.

The fan-shaped area on the left was basically old employees of the Sanctum Sanctorum. They came here to attend advanced classes, mainly studying courses like Cosmic Psychology and Interstellar Sociology. In a small area on their side were S. H. I. E. L. D. agents with symbiotes, who mainly participated in various cosmic popular science lectures.

The middle area was occupied by many members of the Interstellar Safety Committee. After Shiler's thesis on interstellar sociology became famous, many members of the Interstellar Safety Committee came to listen to this professor's lectures.

And the rightmost area was occupied by Asgardians, Inhumans, some Skrulls, and other races relatively friendly to humans, most of whom were also sent by their own clan leaders to study here.

The universe is so vast, naturally there is no lack of famous experts in psychology and sociology. The reason why Shiler can attract so many listeners is that those who know the ropes know that Shiler doesn't just study theory, or rather, every theory he studied was perfectly practiced by him.

Humans have been very popular in interstellar society recently. In addition to the Sorcerer Supreme who was relatively famous before, the newly emerged Steel Demon God also gained a batch of mechanical civilization fans.

The Spider-Men running around the universe also let various civilizations witness the outrageous individual power of humans, not to mention the mutants like Magneto who pulled full effects during the Zerg invasion. Humans, this civilization, are the red-hot chickens in the civilization circle recently.

The so-called laymen watch the excitement, and the insiders watch the doorway. There are smart people in the universe who know that someone is pushing all this behind the scenes. Shiler understands that he can't hide it, and didn't plan to hide it, so most insiders found him.

But due to the group of weird humans with full effects like defensive towers surrounding Shiler, the only way for this group of people to study Shiler was to listen to his lectures.

They didn't know until they listened. Shiler's theory actually had no particularly innovative points. The problem was that he upheld the astonishing moral bottom line that humans have always had, which can be called unscrupulous. The degree of his belly full of bad water indeed refreshed the horizons of many people.

Just when Shiler was talking about the time sense and space sense of demons, a listener below raised his hand. Shiler looked over, and the one who raised his hand was Thanos.

Thanos pushed his glasses again, looked at Shiler and said: "Hello, Dean Shiler, I want to ask, in the part about using your own attraction to the other party to create a closed space, thereby causing the other party to produce Stockholm syndrome, which you described in a certain class two months ago, is the judgment of the different time lengths of each manipulation stage based on the manipulator or the manipulated?"

Shiler raised an eyebrow. Thanos sent him a signal with his eyes, similar to "How did you know I just fished up a ten-pound big fish?"

Shiler cleared his throat, thought for a moment, and said: "Does the manipulator understand the time concept of the manipulated?"

"There is full understanding."

"Then does the manipulated understand the time concept of the manipulator?"

Thanos thought for a while and said: "If he has the heart to think, he should be able to know, but I'm not sure about the degree of his effort."

"That proves that your attraction to him is not enough. What kind of attraction method did you adopt? Are you making the other party feel your threat?"

"No, he has something to gain from me."

"This is not a stable manipulation relationship, or it might precisely be the illusion he gave you, making him feel that he has something to ask of you, and you occupy the dominant position, but the fact is exactly the opposite. There are quite a few fish in his pond like you."

Thanos frowned slightly, but didn't refute. Shiler looked at him and said: "We can discuss this problem after class. Come on, students, let's continue to talk about the next part of the sense of time, the space sense of demon-like life..."

After a class, the students left one after another. Stark and Strange rushed into the classroom against the flow of people, but at this time Shiler had already gone to the office with Thanos, and they missed him.

The two rushed to the office again, and then were stopped outside the door by a Spider-Man guarding the door.

"Dean Shiler said not to let anyone in. If you go in, you will definitely be scolded." Spider-Man shrugged.

"Who is he inside with?"

"A purple-skinned big guy."

Stark frowned, but Strange called his name directly: "Thanos? Why is Shiler with Thanos again... what are they plotting again?"

"Forget it, let's wait a while." Stark sighed: "Knowing he's fine is enough, it doesn't matter if we wait a while."

As a result, they waited for more than seven hours.

Shiler and Thanos talked for a very, very long time, and there was no sound of argument coming from inside. The two sides seemed to have been calmly narrating, but it was so long that Stark and Strange thought they had a fight inside.

Although there is no time in the dream world, they waited from day to night in the real world before Thanos finally came out of the office. He didn't even look at the two people waiting at the door, but left with a thoughtful expression.

Stark and Strange followed into the office. They had a belly full of words to say, but when they entered, they were stunned by Shiler's image.

This is the dream world. The Shiler who came here is the image in the tower, that is, the younger image with half-long hair.

"Uh..." Stark and Strange let out a gasp like an emergency brake together. Stark stared at Shiler for a long time before asking somewhat hesitantly: "Which Shiler are you, Greed?"

"He is busy with some other things, but he is very safe, not going to self-mutilate or commit suicide, he is just very busy."

Stark and Strange looked at each other again. Strange frowned slightly and asked: "Which Shiler are you? What did you talk about with Thanos just now?"

"Compared to this, you should know that the time flow in the Realm of Death is not exactly the same as Earth, right? Are you sure you haven't missed too many things?"

Stark was stunned for a moment, then patted his forehead and said: "Is that so? I stayed for too short a time last time and didn't feel it. I still had a pile of documents to sign before I left. If I delayed too long, Pepper would go crazy."

And Strange had already turned and walked out, muttering about the renewal time of contracts with some demons while walking. And when they returned to Earth in the real world, they discovered that a new cultural movement was quietly unfolding on Earth.

It's not a cultural craze of a certain country or a certain nation, nor is it a flash in the pan that only exists on the Internet. It is a super-large-scale cultural and ideological movement covering all countries and cultural circles on Earth, involving new media and traditional media, covering literature, philosophy, various arts, and even some engineering disciplines.

Until the recent punk culture craze, some articles pointing out the influence of era changes on cultural tendencies realized that the new things that appeared in just a few years were not just for the convenience of ordinary people's lives, but also had important significance in dividing eras.

The first to point this out was the French historian Bots, who mainly studied the Enlightenment. In a popular science book on historical era division he published recently, he added an exposition on this era.

"Most people still don't realize that they are living with many great people. Those sages who once appeared in their history books are standing beside them, looking up at the sun with them.

The vigorous vitality displayed in the field of science and technology indicates that human beings are entering a brand-new stage of development. Next, people will feel brand-new great changes in all aspects of life.

We will also be like the insignificant creatures in the background stories of the great people recorded in history books, washed into rivers, lakes, and seas by the giant waves of the era. And historians like me will draw a conclusion for it at the end of this history.

And if I were to draw a symbol most representative of it at the end of this short and surging history, I would call it—the Third Industrial Revolution era of mankind."
