When Stark and Steve came to the ward, they saw Schiller sleeping again as expected. Stark walked up and shook Schiller, but Schiller didn't respond at all. He controlled the suit to release it again.
Music, turned on the vibration mode, and put his hand on the bedside, but Schiller was still asleep,
Steve had already gone out to call the doctor. After the doctor came in and conducted some inspections, while debugging the machine, he said: "There are no problems with all physiological characteristics. He is not comatose, he is really just sleeping."
"You may not know that in many mental illnesses, insomnia and drowsiness occur at the same time. He may have had symptoms of insomnia last night, so he slept more deeply during the day. If you don't have anything important to do, you can go a little later.
Come and see him again."
After the doctor left, Stark frowned and looked at Schiller. He said, "I think we have to go to the palace of thought to find him and ask him about this matter."
With that said, he walked to the nursing bed on the other side and said to Steve: "Wait here and keep an eye on my body. I will go to sleep to find Schiller and ask what is going on."
Steve did not refuse. He also knew that it would be safer for Stark, who now has knowledge of magic and psychology, to enter the dream world, but if he were to be brought with him again, the efficiency would be reduced.
Moreover, Schiller and Stark fell asleep at the same time, and their bodies could be in danger without care. Therefore, Steve sat in the middle of the two hospital beds, with Schiller on the left and Stark on the right.
After falling into a dream, Stark used the same method as last time to arrive at Schiller's thinking palace, but this time, the palace was much more lively. Looking from the bottom up, there were many figures on the first to tenth floors, and
This time, Schiller actually came to receive him.
Schiller, who had a globe head, came up, shook hands with Stark, and took him to the elevator with great enthusiasm.
In the elevator, he introduced to Stark: "Schiller doesn't know what's going on recently. He shuts himself in the room every day and makes phone calls with that scale..."
"I just kept mumbling to the empty table when I had nothing to do. All I talked about was the conditions for resurrection, the Hall of Valor and the like..."
"To be honest, we are worried, but it's hard to ask. You are his friend. It's best to advise him not to indulge in dreams all the time, and to go back to work in the real world as soon as possible..."
The more Schiller on the globe head spoke, the more serious Stark looked. The elevator stopped and reached the 201st floor. Schiller on the globe head led Stark forward and said as he walked: "This is the temporary office floor. He
In the innermost office, you can see it when you open the door."
Schiller also pointed out the direction to Stark very thoughtfully. Stark nodded to him and immediately walked quickly towards the room.
When he opened the door, he saw Schiller sitting in front of a table. There was nothing on the table except a scale they had seen before. One end of the scale was a feather and the other end was a heart.
At this time, the inner end of the heart was still relatively high. Schiller pressed two fingers on that section of the heart, as if there was an invisible presence that Stark could not see, and then pressed on the other end.
When Stark walked in, Schiller was drinking from a water glass. Therefore, Stark did not hear what he was talking about. After he walked up, he hesitated and saw an empty table placed opposite the table.
There was a stool, and Stark wanted to walk over and sit down...
"Sit over there." Schiller pointed to the other side of the table, and a chair appeared there. Stark was stunned for a moment and asked: "Why?"
"There's someone on the other side." Schiller stretched out his fingers and rubbed his temples. In his field of vision, opposite was a woman in professional attire. The nameplate on her chest read a few words: "Manager of Party A."
The female image mainly comes from the comics that Schiller read before. Originally, the image of death in his mind was actually the image in Thanos's mind, because when Schiller read the comics in his previous life, this image was the one that impressed him most.
However, after several rounds of games, Death's clothes have changed from robes to professional ol's attire, because except for the manager of Party A's client, no one will be so difficult to deal with.
Fortunately, he has made some progress. Now, Death is willing to sit across from him and talk to him. This is simply unprecedented progress.
Therefore, even if Schiller heard someone calling him in reality, he did not go out. Today, even if the king of heaven comes, he still has to negotiate the deal.
Some people may think that this is just a phantom created by Schiller himself, just like the situation of Thanos, but in fact it is completely different. Death has really come.
To be honest, Death can't be controlled by Schiller. In his long career, Death has made deals with many beings, including Odin, Osiris, Mephisto, Hela, etc.
Most gods in the pantheon who are responsible for death, or gods with the power of resurrection, have had transactions with her.
The general process of the transaction is that these gods are aware of the existence of death, and when they think that death has an entity, they will see the illusion of death, just like Thanos. At this time, they will realize that death desires
More death, and resurrection is just another way of bringing about death.
They will understand that death, as an abstract concept, cannot directly create death, but must help others. In other words, death cannot directly tell Odin "Go kill someone." She can only use a roundabout way.
That is to give Odin the authority to resurrect warriors, allowing him to cause more killings.
They understood these contents implicitly, that is, when they thought about the physical concept of death, they had already understood these contents. As long as they agreed, the transaction was completed.
There will not be any drastic changes, but from now on, the authority for resurrection will be opened, and those souls they designate will be rejected by the kingdom of death.
How death identifies the souls they have designated is actually through tokens. Odin's token is his spear, and Osiris's token is this scale.
Generally speaking, tokens cannot be lost. Dead trading partners, because they have the power of resurrection, can often develop many believers and become very powerful. No one will take these tokens away from them, for example.
, it is unlikely that anyone would take Odin's spear away from him.
A long time ago, when the Egyptian pantheon was prosperous, there were many believers, and Osiris was also very powerful. However, in modern times, the Egyptian pantheon has had many followers and has not embarked on the same path of development as Asgard.
,So, the transaction volume of Tianping has been unable to increase...
The power of death is unlimited, but her rejection of souls is equivalent to a loss of income, and this part of the income becomes her investment in this pantheon.
Only if the rejected souls create more killings can this investment be repaid. However, due to the expansion of the Egyptian pantheon in modern times, there are not many believers and even fewer capable people, and the transaction volume represented by the scale has been losing money for a long time.
Death has allowed Osiris to resurrect many believers, which is equivalent to a sunk cost. If we give up the balance at this time, wouldn't those rejected souls be equivalent to paying in vain?
Any human creature will hesitate when faced with a decision with sunk costs, and the same goes for death.
Therefore, she would rather endure Schiller's harassing phone calls than give up this passage, just in case the Egyptian pantheon evolves into Asgard again in a few million years.
However, on the one hand, Schiller is really annoying. Sales calls are not only the enemy of mankind, but also the unbearable harassment of any intelligent creature. Death has been in love for so many years, no matter it is a powerful overlord of the universe or a superior god.
He is her subordinate.
However, only Schiller did not talk about romance or love. He talked about money, money, money, money, money on the phone every day. Within three days, he received more than a hundred plans and made thousands of phone calls. Just open your mouth and shut up.
Interest rate, principal and interest, loan...
To be honest, after listening to it for such a long time, Death almost understood human finance.
Because of this, death is really a bit exciting. According to Schiller, her previous cooperation method was inefficient, giving too much and getting too little back.
Schiller used the comparison between Asgard and the Egyptian pantheon to give Death an in-depth analysis of why this method does not work.
To put it simply, ordinary investment is risky, and no one can take it all. You may make a lot of money in one investment object, but then suffer a big loss in another investment object, just like a big investor.
Asgard, which makes a lot of money, and the Egyptian pantheon, which almost lost all its pants.
And if you want to take it all, there are many ways, especially since Death still has such great authority. Are the game administrators still afraid of not being able to get gold?
According to Schiller's analysis, Death is really a little bit excited, but she is different from the God of the Universe. She has such great authority and doesn't want to cooperate with anyone equally. She just wants to control Xi like Thanos.
le.
The relationship between the two people now, simply put, is that Schiller wants to use Death, and Death also wants to use Schiller. Both of them know the other's evil intentions, but they can't bear to take advantage of each other. Schiller wants to win, and Death also wants to use it.
Win, both of them saw the other's competitiveness, but they couldn't let go of their own.
Anyway, they have been in a stalemate for a long time, and they just made a breakthrough when Death finally showed up and came to interview Schiller.
But the interview didn't go well, because Death knew that the situation was not good for her. She didn't know where Schiller knew that her ultimate condition was to create more deaths, but she herself didn't know that Schiller's final condition was
What.
Just before Stark came in, Death was testing Schiller, trying to figure out what Schiller wanted to do with her deal.
Just during the intermission, Stark came in. Stark was not the party to negotiate with death, so he could not see death at all. In his field of vision, Schiller was just talking to the air.
"Seriously, Schiller." Stark put his hands on the table and said sincerely: "I can understand your ideals and beliefs. Even if I am not a Marxist, after listening to Steve and Na
After Tasha finished talking about the glory of that era, she felt very emotional."
Schiller was thinking about those contracts, and he had a headache thinking about them. When Stark suddenly said this, he didn't react at all.
"But, as I said to Steve, that era has passed. There is no good in dwelling on the past. You will hurt yourself by dwelling on the past, and if you try to resurrect the past, you will hurt more people."
Stark looked into Schiller's eyes and said to him seriously:
"If you want to resurrect the Soviet Union, I must dissuade you."
Schiller, who was dizzy after working overtime, didn't understand what Stark was talking about at all, but suddenly, he saw Death on the other side stunned, showing a frightened expression, and then quickly disappeared.
Before leaving, her voice echoed in the room:
“You want to resurrect the Soviet Union???!!”
"goodbye!!!!"
Schiller was stunned.
