Chapter 522: Schiller Is Probably Crazy (Part 1)

Standing from Stark's perspective, connecting the clues they obtained along the way, first of all, the fact that Schiller was not controlled by the Moon God Khonshu didn't exceed Stark's expectations too much.

He actually didn't think that someone who had such a high tower in the mind world would be easily controlled by a god. He guessed that this was a setup by Schiller, but afterward, after entering Schiller's consciousness world, Schiller's past experiences still exceeded his expectations.

A child who was about to get rid of autism, just when he recovered his language ability, witnessed the tragedy of his parents being killed, thus losing the ability to speak again. This kind of thing, no matter where it happens, can be called a human tragedy.

And afterward, they witnessed in the asylum on the second floor how young Schiller split into a murderer personality because of childhood trauma.

And what made Steve and Stark feel even sadder was that the doctor Schiller they knew before performed very normally. Not only was his language ability completely fine, but it even exceeded ordinary people by a lot. Especially, he also used the intelligence brought by his high-functioning autism to plan for human civilization, and now he had achieved quite good results.

It can be said that even if Schiller was not their friend, they would feel encouraged when hearing such stories. This is human nature. They are moved by everyone who is independent, self-improving, and plays a bad hand well, and they gain the motivation to drive themselves forward from their stories.

But afterward, they heard from Khonshu that Schiller was exploring the secret of the Egyptian pantheon resurrecting believers, which made them have bad associations, especially Stark, whose parents died in an accident, felt even more empathetic.

Just like what he advised Schiller before, when he learned the news of his parents' death, he also couldn't sleep at night, tossing and turning thinking of ways to save all this. It can be said that if he knew at that time that Egyptian gods could resurrect believers, he would definitely not care about anything and would pay any price to resurrect his parents.

And precisely because Stark had such an experience, he understood how dangerous this mentality was. On the road of pursuing the resurrection of life, one might come into contact with countless taboo knowledge, and as you invest more, you will become more obsessed, and finally, you will develop into a lonely ghost who lives only for a kind of obsession, regardless of other people's lives.

Upon learning that Schiller wanted to explore the secret of resurrection, Stark felt very anxious. Psychological trauma can be treated, childhood shadows can be smoothed out, but if Schiller really embarked on such an extreme path, even if Stark knew he could ascend to become the 'One,' he had no confidence that he could stop the paranoid Schiller.

So he knew he had to pull Schiller back before he fell into this quagmire, and must not let things develop to that point of no return.

Judging from what he saw and heard, his speculation was reasonable. To be honest, it is very difficult for anyone in this world to resist the temptation of resurrecting loved ones. Even if this person appears to be firm and wise again, no one dares to guarantee 100% that there is no selfishness when facing this problem.

Humans are creatures living in the river of time, everything can only constantly rush downstream with the water, so there are always regrets that cannot be made up.

But humans also always fantasize that they can go against the long river of time, return to the upstream, and make up for the regrets of the past.

Everyone has their own story, everyone has their own regrets, so there is never a lack of people who put this unrealistic fantasy into action.

Stark is not a person who is good at expressing himself directly. His personality is very awkward, and it can even be called strange. He is always avoiding certain emotions and rarely makes responsible guarantees to others. People who have been disappointed by family and love always lack this ability.

But this time, he even put aside that awkward emotion and used a quite sincere attitude to persuade Schiller, even making a long-lost emotional guarantee, just hoping that Schiller would not fall into this quagmire, and not even take the first step.

However, Schiller, who heard this, felt very puzzled. He really didn't know what had happened.

The fact that Stark and Steve would directly enter his Mind Palace along the path marked by the Shining Alliance base was completely beyond his expectation.

Because, although from the perspective of Stark and Steve, their journey was quite smooth and they entered Schiller's Mind Palace without any obstacles, Schiller himself knew that the high tower had very perfect defense facilities, and not everyone could enter.

And he didn't take away all personalities in one breath, and quite a few remained in the tower to work. How did Stark and Steve enter directly? And they seemed to have misunderstood something?

Schiller felt puzzled because he wasn't really looking for Death to resurrect anyone; he actually wanted to talk business with Death.

In fact, Schiller knew about Asgard's Valhalla long ago.

Because he had read comics, he knew that everything in the universe eventually belongs to the abstract entity Death, and Asgard actually used some special methods to keep people from Death's hands.

But at that time, Schiller didn't have such an idea, because he knew that Asgard in its heyday and Odin in his peak were outrageously strong, and it was not surprising to be able to sit at a table with Death and negotiate. Therefore, Odin having Valhalla was a matter of course, which was the cosmic status Asgard should have obtained.

And Schiller, he first weighed the weight of human civilization, and then looked at his long list of plan schedules, and felt that there was actually no need to contact the five creation gods so early.

But recently, he changed his mind, which had two main reasons.

One is that too much funding is needed, and the Avengers are too strong, while Hydra, regardless of quantity or quality, is not enough, especially quantity.

"Fairy Wood Origin"

That wave of "one fish, three eats" before was cool, but Hydra is not really leeks after all, they don't grow that fast. After selling a wave to hell, the number left in the human world is not enough. The Avengers want them, and S. H. I. E. L. D. also wants them. Where can there be so many Hydras for them to divide?

It won't work not to divide them to the Avengers. Stark and Captain America fight every day. Using killing Hydra to decide the winner is already a very civilized method. They can't really fight a civil war, right?

But S. H. I. E. L. D. also really needs Hydra. With Hydra, S. H. I. E. L. D. has weight and status. Nick and Schiller are also planning to steal the sky and change the sun. In this way, the budget is not enough to divide at all.

But if there could be a Valhalla similar to Asgard, the situation would be different.

Schiller can completely resurrect the Hydras killed by the Avengers, send them to S. H. I. E. L. D. to work, kill the Hydras sent to S. H. I. E. L. D. to work to brush performance, and resurrect them to give to the Avengers.

In this way, the Hydra industry chain formed a perfect closed loop.

Schiller once seriously considered how the Hydra industry chain should develop sustainably.

Hydra members are humans after all, not materials. People cannot be resurrected after death. If you want to reproduce, he can't go catch children and brainwash them, right? Not to mention the moral problem, the time cost of cultivating a Hydra villain is too high.

But if they can be resurrected, it's different. This batch of Hydras living in the world now, especially the middle and high-level personnel, cannot be said to be heinous, but they can be said to be worthy of being cut a thousand times. Then letting this group of people be cut as leeks repeatedly doesn't have any moral dilemma.

You have done so many bad things, what's wrong with dying a few more times? There is a word in this world called "ten thousand deaths are not enough to atone for one's crimes," which is very suitable for this group of Hydras.

If the resurrection function is even stronger, you can also pull up the NAZIs from before, any SS, Wehrmacht, pull them up and incorporate them all into Hydra, half to S. H. I. E. L. D. to work, half to the Avengers to be targets. This is what a perfect ecological cycle is, which can be called sustainable fishing!

And the other thing that made Schiller set his sights on Death was actually the Egyptian pantheon.

Asgard and Odin are outrageously strong, so they can make deals with Death. Schiller has nothing to say. People speak with strength. Odin has ruled the Nine Realms for so many years, which can be considered a protector of human civilization in a sense. He has a Valhalla that can stand in front, and human civilization is safer.

But what are you Egyptian artifacts relying on? Is your leader as strong as Odin? Is the overall strength as strong as Asgard? Is the civilization as developed as Asgard? Is the contribution to humanity as great as Asgard?

Since none of them are, why can you also make deals with Death? By fighting civil wars every day?

Simply put, Schiller was just sour.

If you want to say that human civilization cannot compare to Asgard's level of development, then Schiller would admit it. People's starting point is high, and they were born with half a bottle of water. Plus Odin is a star descending from heaven, who has survived I don't know how many waves of cosmic disasters, so it is reasonable to have some privileges.

But look at this sloppy Egyptian pantheon, so many Demon Gods squeezed into one dimension, and even fought civil wars because there was not enough space to live, and expelled a batch of people. Every day they squat in the temple, controlling human believers to make trouble on Earth. Isn't this Earth's cancer?

If you want to say they are not a civilization and cannot compare to Asgard, then you can also compare Demon Gods, such as Mephisto. Mephisto's Hell is similar to Asgard's Valhalla, and can also intercept souls going to the Death Kingdom, which shows that Mephisto and Death also have deals.

But these Demon Gods of the Egyptian pantheon, let alone one taken out alone, even if they are kneaded together, they might not be able to beat Mephisto.

Then what on earth are they relying on to possess this kind of privilege?

With this mentality, Schiller would naturally think, they can all do it, why can't I?

To be honest, I haven't brushed less performance for you Death, right? In the first wave of the Knull event, how many cosmic Demon Gods died? Cosmic Demon God death is also death, and eventually, all belong to the Death Kingdom.

Not to mention in the Shining event, besides the membership gifts of several consecutive times, first blowing up stars, then blowing up black holes, just that one month, if Schiller hadn't been rated as a performance pacesetter in the Death Kingdom, then the whole universe would really have snow in June, shouting injustice for him.

Since that's the case, what the Egyptian pantheon has, I also want to have. Thinking this way, Schiller naturally formulated a plan to find Death and talk to her to see if he could get a Valhalla. This is actually his ultimate goal.

Of course, just like Schiller's consistent style, he will intersperse countless side goals in this ultimate goal.

For example, along the way, explore Mark's psychological state to prepare for his thesis, pluck a wave of Moon God Khonshu's moonlight power wool, and let out a personality that has been locked in the asylum to get some air.

Fake death once, let the Avengers and the Sorcerer Supreme realize the essence of these gods, stimulate them to erupt to purge the Demon Gods on Earth, and solve internal troubles on the eve of humanity officially entering the universe.

Get a means of transportation that can walk in the dream world, and help the Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters solve the school bus problem.

Sell a favor to animal gods like Moon God Khonshu, Panther God Bast, and Hippo Goddess, and help them take revenge on the nature gods who once expelled them.

Find a suitable reason to turn the nature gods into the next wave of membership gifts, and get the method of his deal with Death from Osiris's mouth.

Finally, use this method to achieve his ultimate goal, which is to see Death and talk business with her. ===== CHAPTER 523 =====
