Chapter 2352

~10 min read 1,976 words

Schiller is studying David Haller's medical history.

Knowing yourself and the enemy, you will never be defeated. As a ceiling-level mutant, the mental world must be very dangerous. It is too risky to go in without preparation. Schiller needs to conduct a comprehensive investigation first.

His understanding of Legion mostly comes from comics, and Legion's life experience is not complicated, which can be called one of the mistakes made by Professor X in his early years.

When Charles was young, he participated in a medical team in the Haifa area, where he met Magneto for the first time and also met an Israeli woman. Charles saved this woman, and the two fell in love.

A temporary hot love didn't last long, and the two soon separated, but this woman was pregnant with Charles's child and didn't tell him. After giving birth to the child, this woman became the Israeli ambassador to the UK, and the child went to the UK with her.

Later, the mother and son formed a family with another man. This man was David's foster father, Daniel.

The family of three encountered a terrorist attack in Paris. The terrorists killed his foster father in front of David. Since then, David went crazy. His psychic ability completely erupted, absorbed the personality of the terrorist he killed, and then got out of control.

Because the superpower could not be controlled, his mother handed him over to a female scientist in a mutant research center on a small island. Obviously, he didn't get good care, or in this situation, no one had the ability to take care of him. He got sicker and sicker.

Later things were learned by Schiller from David's oral account.

Because of the development of the Andromeda galaxy, mutants began to lack people gradually. As mentioned before, the vast majority of mutants are not strong, and many mutant abilities are even defects, similar to disabled people. Mutant abilities that can be used for extraterrestrial development are rare. Once the project starts, there is a shortage of manpower everywhere.

So Magneto began to search for manpower globally, focusing on investigating those mutant eruption events that had records before. Generally speaking, the more violently the mutant ability erupts, the stronger it is. Following this line of thought, one can find many Alpha or Omega level mutants scattered all over the world.

David's eruption back then made quite a few news. When they checked France and the UK, they noticed this blue-eyed child.

Back then, Charles and that Jewish woman were in love. Magneto knew. When he saw David's face and eyes, he realized that this child must have something to do with his old friend.

Charles heard about this and went to investigate immediately, and found that he had an extra son for no reason.

Although feeling regretful, this child couldn't be left alone. Besides being his blood relative, he was also a very powerful mutant and shouldn't be imprisoned in a research center, which would only make his situation worse and worse.

So Charles got David out of the research center, but facing David's situation, Charles was also helpless. He had entered his brain several times, but was also helpless against those chaotic personalities.

So Charles could only hand David over to Schiller, hoping that Schiller, who had a somewhat similar situation to David, would have a way.

But in fact, Schiller didn't have a very good way either. Still the same sentence, this is not traditional dissociative identity disorder. The chasm separated from traditional mental illness is the powerful mutant ability of each personality.

It's strange to say, most mutants born in the real world have weak abilities, and those born in David's mind are one stronger than another, with all kinds of abilities, but all are very suitable for fighting, and all are PVP big shots.

This leads to traditional treatment methods definitely not working well. To guide these personalities to merge, language is useless. Merging means death. No one wants to die. If they resist desperately, they will definitely cause big trouble.

But if too violent means are taken, such as forcibly cleaning the mental space, one is that the birth of personalities cannot be stopped, and the other is that David's mental world, which already has defects, cannot withstand such tossing.

David's id is the key. When his instincts return to normal, and two of the three pillars are supported, making the mental world more stable, there will be room for operation. By then, whether it is surgery or conservative therapy, it will be easier.

Schiller wrote and drew in the notebook. At this time, Charles knocked on the door and walked in. Schiller looked up at him and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Oh, I saw that Senior Sister was a bit uncomfortable, so I let her go back to rest first. I'll be on night shift tonight."

"You want to squat here and read medical records again," Schiller immediately exposed him and said. "With this time, hurry up and write your paper. It will be sent for review this week, and it should be published next week."

Charles nodded perfunctorily. Now the paper is not his main task. He sat in the office seat, turned his head to look at Schiller, and asked tentatively, "What's wrong with David?"

"He suffers from dissociative identity disorder, and his condition is continuously deteriorating. I am thinking about a treatment plan."

"Is that dissociative identity disorder?" Charles said with some surprise. "Can it really separate into more than 1000 personalities?"

"The difficulty lies precisely here," Schiller pointed at the paper with the tip of his pen and said. "This may also be part of his mutant ability. Mental illness and mutant ability are intertwined. If there is no accident, he can consider naming this syndrome after his own name."

"Will this be your next paper?"

"That also depends on whether I have the ability to solve it," Schiller sighed and said. "So far, there is no full grasp."

Charles's expression also gradually became serious. He said, "Is this very difficult? Do you need my help?"

"Of course I need it," Schiller nodded and said. "And not just you, I am thinking of finding a few helpers. Besides the two of us who target psychic abilities, I must find a output with powerful superpowers, an all-around assistant to guard the side, and a guard to watch the body outside..."

Schiller clearly wrote several names, but crossed them all out before writing and drawing. Just then the phone rang, and Schiller responded to the other side a few times.

"Two friends of mine will come over later. If you don't want to see them, you can take a few medical records to the next room to read, or take this..." Schiller handed the medical condition and course analysis of David he just wrote to Charles and said, "Think of a way, and give me a plan tomorrow."

After Charles took it, he sighed. Sure enough, being a graduate student is inevitable to be ordered by the boss, but he was also very interested in David's condition, so he took the analysis and walked out the door.

When he passed the corridor, he saw a man and a woman who were lively and cheerful, looking not like they needed to see a psychiatrist. They should be the friends Dr. Schiller mentioned.

The door was pushed open, Scarlet Witch Wanda poked her head in first, Jarvis hugged her and walked in. At this time, Wanda's belly was already bulging, and Jarvis was holding the inspection report in his hand.

"The two of us came here for a regular check-up. I heard you came to work here, Doctor," Jarvis moved a chair for Wanda. After Wanda sat down, she touched her belly and said, "This is a little guy who is too active. Although Stark Tower also has a full set of testing equipment, I still trust traditional hospitals more."

Jarvis sighed lightly and said, "Because of Ms. Pepper's physical condition, Mr. Stark has become a bit neurotic. Maybe in a few days, he will be dragged here."

Schiller laughed and said, "In fact, he is not suitable for any traditional treatment plan. Making him take medicine is harder than going to heaven."

"How does it feel to work here, Doctor?" Wanda was clearly very talkative. Schiller first looked at her appearance. Wanda was a bit fatter, but her complexion was ruddy, her eyes were bright, and she didn't seem to be tortured by pregnancy reactions.

"I think you are in good condition, Miss. When do you plan to hold the wedding?"

"Probably not recently," Jarvis said. "Everyone is too busy. We can't ask others to put down what they are doing to attend our wedding, and the preparation work is too mentally exhausting, not suitable for Wanda."

Wanda snorted coldly and said, "That can't be considered a difficult thing. Being stuck in the room eating nutritional supplements is not suitable for me."

"There is just a small exercise here suitable for you to move your muscles and bones. Do you want to try it?" Schiller asked.

"What?" Wanda asked with some curiosity.

"I took over a very tricky patient here. He is a patient with dissociative identity disorder and also a mutant. The more than 1000 personalities he split have their own mutant abilities, living together in his shell."

"Now I hope to make his spirit more stable to prevent so many mutant abilities from erupting at the same time and causing big trouble that cannot be cleaned up."

"Oh hey, wait, is that Professor Xavier's son?" Wanda seemed to have heard of it. She said, "He also makes Erik feel very wary, and even didn't shout for him to contribute to the mutant's extraterrestrial development work, but hoped he would stay on Earth. It sounds like a big trouble."

"Indeed, so we have to solve it, otherwise no matter where he explodes, it won't be good for us, right?"

"I think no problem," Wanda rubbed her hands and said, "I'm almost suffocated. I'm not allowed to do this, not allowed to do that. I'm not an ordinary person. I really don't know what's good about recuperating."

Jarvis shook his head helplessly, and then he asked, "So are we going deep into that mutant's mental world?"

"Of course not. The first time we connect to his mental space, we will do an inspection first to see what the situation is like there, so we need a powerful combat force to ensure that we can withdraw at any time."

"No problem, I can fully do it," Wanda raised her hand and said, "Fighting in the mental world doesn't affect my body, and as long as I mark your bodies, I can pull your consciousness out with Scarlet Power at any time."

"This couldn't be better, but at the same time I need someone to do data recording and assistance," Schiller looked at Jarvis and said, "I think you are also not at ease with Wanda going in alone, so let's go together."

Jarvis nodded and didn't say anything. In fact, it's hard to say whether it's more dangerous to let Wanda and Schiller go in together to solve the problem, or to leave such a time bomb alone. On this issue, Jarvis is still more inclined to hold the initiative in his own hands.

"In addition, I will also ask Professor X to do a kind of insurance measure to ensure that our spirits will not be impacted by any impact. In addition, there is another young Professor X who will go in with us. In short, we will make full preparations before acting."

"So are we a team now?" Wanda asked with some excitement, "What should we be called? Psychic Agents?"

"Of course it's Psychic Assaulters, Miss."
