Chapter 4737
"Did you see it?" Ma Te walked in from the door, put down the coat in his hand, looked at Schiller who was eating at the dining table and said: "Construction has already started on the volcano side, Erik took action, the scene is quite spectacular."
"I only care about the quality of the hot springs." Schiller cut a piece of steak, "I heard that the underground hot springs there have a very high temperature, it sounds like a good place, but it definitely can't compare to the World Tree."
"That's not necessarily true." Ma Te shook his head and said, "It is said that there are sulfur caves near the volcano, and natural sulfur hot springs have very high health value. As long as the water temperature can be adjusted to a suitable level, it will definitely be an excellent place for recuperation."
Schiller raised his eyebrows at him, Ma Te sat opposite him, put his hands on the table, leaned forward, and then said: "I think you also saw it, this island is uniquely endowed by nature. Don't you have any ideas?"
"You know, because of Tony's illness, I don't have any ideas anymore. But even at the beginning, I didn't intend to do anything with this island."
"What are you thinking?" Ma Te said, "I mean, why not open a sanatorium on this island?"
"Are you serious?" Schiller said with some surprise, "This island repels ordinary people, even Tony got sick, who else would dare to come for recuperation."
"But isn't it said that the Krakoa Flower can cure it? If you can ignore the negative effects after taking the Krakoa Flower, and come and go often, it is simply an excellent tourist and recuperation resort."
"Is it that you want to come over and play often yourself?" Schiller smiled and said.
"I won't hide it from you either," Ma Te said, "Elektra and I haven't had a world for two for a long time. If someone is willing to help take care of the children, we also want to find a quiet place to play for a few days. Krakoa is not bad, much better than those popular tourist attractions on Earth."
"And," Ma Te tapped the table lightly and said, "There must be quite a few people in the multiverse who think this way. When you are eager to escape, Mars is not far enough, only by hiding far away in another universe can you relax your body and mind. Krakoa is a good place to hide from the world."
"If you open a sanatorium here, you become an intermediary, and you can partially control who can come to this paradise, which can be considered a kind of human resource, which is good for both the universe and the operation of the sanatorium."
"You really have a point." Schiller said, "The sanatorium in New York has become a real mental hospital because of community obligations. Recuperating clients and sick patients cannot exist at the same time. It's time to find a good place and open a real sanatorium again."
"Didn't you think about it before?"
"I originally wanted to find it in our universe." Schiller said, "I think our universe also has Krakoa, it just hasn't been found yet. If I can find it first, the whole island is mine, why look at other people's faces?"
"So that's it." Ma Te said, "Since you said so, I also think our universe's is better. Then you can just pretend I didn't say anything."
"No." Schiller shook his head, "Your suggestion also makes sense, because if we use the island of our universe, more people from the outside universe will come, and there might even be people from the neighboring world. Nick will have a headache, and the workload of others stationed on Earth will also skyrocket, which is really too troublesome."
"It's really strange, you actually find it troublesome? You can't wait for everyone to run in front of you and find some trouble for you?" Ma Te marveled.
"You've been too busy lately, we haven't had a drink together for a long time." Schiller smiled and said, "I have long since turned over a new leaf."
"Forget it." Ma Te curled his lips, "I think it's just that Tony's illness scared you, in two days you'll be full of life again."
"That's not wrong." Schiller said, "Actually, I knew that this island might have an impact on ordinary people before, but Tony can't be completely considered an ordinary person, he still has such a big reactor in his chest. So under my estimation, he wouldn't have any problems, so I came with him."
"Then why did he get sick?" Ma Te asked with some curiosity.
"The main reason is that he was too tired some time ago." Schiller analyzed while drinking juice, "He has always been under pressure with little Morgan. After unloading the pressure, it is inevitable that he will have some symptoms of decreased immunity because his tense spirit suddenly relaxes, plus the temperature dropped sharply on the stormy night, so he caught a cold."
"Pressure with Morgan?" Ma Te captured this keenly, and he said, "How could there be pressure?"
"Don't you have pressure when you find a school for little Jack?"
"Those are realistic pressures." Ma Te said, "To put it bluntly, if I were a big tycoon, I wouldn't have to be so picky, struggling and worrying."
"Tony naturally has his pressure too." Schiller said, "He wants to be a good father too much, for fear that he won't do something right, or say something wrong, so the pressure will naturally be very high."
"Sounds like..." Ma Te paused to think, and then said, "A bit unnatural."
"Love is natural, but communication skills need to be learned." Schiller sighed lightly, "It can only be said that Helen has changed him a lot, giving him some experience, otherwise facing little Morgan would only be more troublesome."
"How do you say that?"
"Helen is naturally carefree, and she doesn't just have one father, Stark, and her relationship with Loki and Thor is also good, and the same with me. Besides, she is somewhat different from humans, and she can take care of herself very well. Except for the first period of time, Tony doesn't need to put his whole heart into it. On the contrary, participating in Helen's growth can also let him learn a lot."
"Little Morgan is different. Human cubs are too fragile, and little Morgan is the kind of child who is harder to bring up. The realistic pressure Tony faces is already very high, and this child is very smart, not only with high IQ but also inheriting his father's sensitivity to emotions. If you don't pay attention to the way and method, she might think too much. It's a miracle that she can be brought up like this, it's hard to imagine how much Pepper and Tony have paid."
Ma Te also nodded with empathy, saying: "Little Jack can be considered quite easy to bring up, a very obedient child, but that period of time when he was young still tossed Elektra and me quite a bit. There was a time when I wanted to find you for treatment."
"Then why didn't you come?"
"Of course because your consultation fee is too expensive, I can't add another pressure to my reality." Ma Te said unpleasantly, "Fortunately, I didn't go to you, otherwise little Jack would probably not be able to afford school now."
"What you earn now is interstellar universal currency." Schiller didn't show weakness either, "Who doesn't know that lawyer Murdock has shown great power in the interstellar court, and there are more than a dozen lawyers from the three major empires who were speechless by you. Stop crying poor here."
"Sigh, it seems you still don't understand the work of a lawyer." Ma Te shook his head and said, "You don't know how difficult that group of lawyers from the three major empires are, if I didn't have humanity behind me, I would have been assassinated long ago. How much money I take is what I deserve."
The two chatted for a while. Soon, Blink came to notify that the mutant ring match was about to start, and asked if they were going.
"Are you going?" Ma Te asked, "I can't see at all, although I can sense some things, it's not interesting. I asked Erik for some files, and I'm preparing to study whether I can break through the sanctions through legal channels."
"I'm not going either." Schiller said, "A group of Omega children are shaking around on Earth every day, haven't you seen enough of mutants fighting? I have to take care of Tony, in case he has nightmares again, I have to go into his childhood drama to pass the level."
"Then let's stay here for a while." Ma Te said, "Wait until that side has results, and it's time to eat, then we'll go over. And hot springs must not be missed."
The two reached an agreement and didn't go to watch the ring match. In fact, there was nothing to see, it was just mutants using mutant abilities to fight, and because there was a clear restraint relationship between mutant abilities, it looked a bit like Pokemon battles, and there was a fixed number of who went on stage and how to fight.
The only thing worth watching was Apocalypse appearing as the ring master at the end, letting other mutants challenge. However, the vast majority of mutants couldn't beat Apocalypse, it was just that among them, there were a few who were recognized by the mutant ancestor.
Finally, the top four of the ring match and these mutants recognized by Apocalypse didn't have to participate in the construction work of the hot springs, and could go back to rest after eating. Others had to help build the hot spring bathhouse before they could soak in the hot springs.
After the ring match ended, Ma Te and Schiller took Stark to eat. Although Stark was still a bit weak, he really didn't want to stay in the room, and didn't want to drag others to miss the collective activities, so he still tried his best to go.
The good news is that the food is delicious. With fresh ingredients transported by the S. P. E. A. R. agency, the cooks showed their skills, French food, Italian food, Mexican food took turns, which can be called color, aroma, and taste.
The bad news is that Stark couldn't eat it, just drank some soup, ate a piece of bread, and fell asleep after going back. He had a fever again in the middle of the night, but it went down quickly, and he still had no strength when he woke up the next day.
And what supported him to go out the next day was another better news, that is, the Iron Man of the Main Universe also disappeared. To confirm that this guy was completely gone, Stark even tried hard to eat a lot of things, and then went out for a turn.
"Hahahaha... he must be sick too... *cough, cough, cough*... his body can't be better than mine." Stark lay on the sofa, his voice hoarse, "But he isn't as strong as me, he must have rolled back to his hometown. Hahahaha..."
Steve sighed helplessly. Stark's problem of laughing at his counterparts couldn't be changed, but since other Starks were the same, he couldn't force him.
"Alright, patient." Steve said, "Drink the medicine."
"Medicine?" Stark said with some confusion, "I don't have a fever anymore, I don't need to take fever-reducing medicine."
"This is Chinese medicine." Steve handed the cup to him, and then said, "It's from the supplies sent by the S. P. E. A. R. agency, it seems it can be used to treat colds. I asked, they said it's pure herbal ingredients, no antibiotics, drink it with confidence."
Stark looked at the cup with some confusion, there was light brown liquid inside, the taste was no problem, it was just suspicious in Stark's eyes.
"You shouldn't be inhumane enough to play a patient, right?" Although he asked like this, Stark clearly didn't believe it very much.
Steve was laughed at by him, and he said: "Drink it if you want, don't drink if you don't want to, I heard this can prevent colds, if you don't drink it, I will."
Stark was just like this, once someone grabbed it with him, he drank it quickly. He took the cup, didn't care if it was hot or not, and sent it to his mouth. Fortunately, it wasn't very hot, he drank it all in one gulp, wiped his mouth and said: "It tastes like that kind of hot Americano with a lot of sugar, I hope it can really be useful."
At this time, Schiller walked in, he was also holding a cup of liquid in his hand, put it in front of Stark, and then said: "When Stephen sent the S. P. E. A. R. agency people back to China, he opened a prescription of Chinese medicine for you by the way, you should drink it while it's hot."
"But I have already... alright, drinking a little more of this kind of small drink is nothing."
Stark picked up the cup and poured it into his mouth. The next second, only a "pfft" was heard, and a mouthful of brown-black medicine juice was sprayed out.
"Why the hell is it so bitter?!!"
