"Why are you here?" Schiller quickly shuttled through the corridor of the spaceship, striding like a meteor, paying no attention to the Ultimate Iron Man behind him.
It wasn't until he reached the bathroom door that he turned back and stared at the Ultimate Iron Man in the silver-white armor and said, "What on earth do you want to do?"
The Ultimate Iron Man's face armor was removed, and he showed a cynical smile to Schiller. He crossed his arms, tapped his index finger on one side of the arm armor, and said: "Of course I'm here to visit the famous Central Universe. Let's see.
Let’s see where the so-called envoys of advanced civilization come from.”
"you do not trust me?"
"Of course not." The Ultimate Iron Man looked like you had misunderstood me. He took a step to the side and stopped in front of the bathroom door. He leaned forward and stared into Schiller's eyes and said, "You seem to have been there for a long time."
It's not fair that I know nothing about you, isn't it?"
"The basis of cooperation is fairness." The Ultimate Iron Man stood up straight and made a long sound, spreading his hands and said: "I don't want to know anything about my partner, what about it? Do you want to drive me away?
"
Schiller took a step forward, and the Ultimate Iron Man showed no intention of getting out of the way. Schiller's expression became more and more sinister, but the smile on the Ultra Iron Man's face did not diminish.
"It seems that I came at the right time. This is an important moment for you, right?" The Ultimate Iron Man looked back at the bright lights of the banquet hall at the end of the corridor, and said with some pride: "You
If you fight me here it's all over, my good doctor, you must calm down."
Greed is knocking on the door in the tower: "Hey, is there anyone? Help me open the elevator. I want to go down to find someone!"
There was a "ding" behind him, which obviously meant that the elevator had arrived. Greedy walked in, and the elevator door slowly closed again.
The elevator was immersed in the abyss, and a figure with half-long hair walked into it. The elevator rose to the top floor, but Schiller in the real world was only slightly stunned. The time was so short that even the Ultimate Iron Man did not notice it.
Within a second, Schiller frowned, his facial muscles tightened, his entire expression became more solemn, and all the smiles in his eyes disappeared, becoming rigorous and serious.
He pushed up his glasses and said to Ultimate Iron Man: "No matter what you are here for, I must warn you that you are derelict in your duties and are disregarding the lives of countless creatures in the universe."
"Then, that's it." Ultimate Iron Man's smile did not diminish at all, and even the corners of his mouth almost reached his ears. He looked at Schiller and said: "Stop cooperation, I will not study any more cosmic propulsion engines, but this
It’s because you can’t build trust in my partners.”
"I won't meet you in person, not because I don't trust you, nor because I don't want you to get to know me." Schiller turned his head to the side, took a few steps back in a somewhat evasive manner, and leaned against the wall on the other side of the corridor with his arms folded.
Say: "I'm not very good at dealing with people like this, and I don't have much for you to understand."
"Are you a superhero?"
"No, I'm just a doctor."
"So I'm very curious, what makes you want to save the universe?" Ultimate Iron Man asked: "Do you think you are kind?"
"This is a ridiculous question." Schiller turned his head back, but still did not confront Stark. Instead, he lowered his eyes and said: "I know that the universe is going to be destroyed, and I am also a member of the universe. I don't want to
Destroyed!"
"That is to say, you only want to save yourself, and the other creatures in the universe are just incidental. But you just kept accusing me of ignoring the safety of the creatures in the universe."
"Who is the doctor anyway?"
"Of course it's you." The Ultimate Iron Man took two more steps forward, turned his head to meet Schiller's eyes and said: "I can see that you are not that kind of pure hero, so maybe saving the universe in your opinion
It’s not a very honorable thing that can make you feel satisfied. You think it’s actually a burden or even a trouble, right?”
Schiller pursed his lips and did not answer.
"Do you feel guilty for driving me?"
"of course not."
"Then you are not as compassionate as you think." The Ultimate Iron Man showed another smile and said: "I want to live so I save the world, but because I am afraid of trouble and don't want to show up, I hide behind the scenes and drive others to do what they want.
You go through fire and water."
"Last question, why me and not the righteous Iron Man?"
Just as Schiller was about to speak, Ultimate Iron Man interrupted him and said: "Let me guess, you are friends with the Iron Man of this universe, and he is a great hero. You don't want to drive your friend to commit danger.
Because that makes you feel guilty, and you lose to the illusion that you will feel guilty."
"So you found me and replaced me with me, just because you somehow learned that I am no longer a hero. I have done many extraordinary things and am now a big devil in the traditional sense."
"In your opinion, driving a criminal to do his part to save the universe is the best of both worlds. You don't have to deceive your friends or hurt the hero, but you can still get good results."
The Ultimate Iron Man leaned forward again until Schiller pressed his head against the wall behind him and raised his head.
"Even I was once a hero and saved countless people until I became a victim of an accident."
"You are not a victim, you know you are not!" Schiller turned back and said angrily.
"But you didn't deny that I was a hero."
Schiller took a deep breath and remained silent.
"You saw what good things I did, right?" The Ultimate Iron Man didn't care about Schiller's reaction at all. He took a step back again, opened his arms and said, "That's a great idea. I use a virus to make an entire human being
People in the city become the perfection of their dreams."
"That's not perfect at all, it's just a scam!" Schiller glared at him angrily and said: "The virus has a time limit. You make people think they can become perfect, but in the end you set an extremely extreme limit for this perfection.
At a high cost, you are harvesting them."
Ultimate Iron Man knew that Schiller was referring to something he did in the original universe. He developed a new terminal virus. People in an entire city nearby were infected with the virus, but this virus did not cause disease.
Or death will only make people look perfect, with handsome appearance, huge strength, and super memory.
But as Schiller said, this virus has a time limit. Once the time limit expires, people will still change back to their original appearance. Then the Ultimate Iron Man began to openly sell this virus, and ordinary people who could not accept the psychological gap
, he spent all his wealth and career to buy a virus that would make him perfect, causing the city to be in chaos and the people to mourn.
"They are being harvested all the time." Ultimate Iron Man's face turned cold, and he said: "For the perfect selves imagined in their stupid minds, for their cowardice and laziness."
Seeing that Schiller's eyes were on him again, a glimmer of light flashed in Ultimate Iron Man's eyes, and he continued: "It is human nature to take shortcuts."
"In fact, everyone knows that through their own efforts, they can make themselves more perfect, through fitness they can get better figures, and through learning they can master more knowledge. So why don't they do this? Why choose my virus?
Woolen cloth?"
"Because it requires no effort at all." Ultimate Iron Man narrowed his eyes and said, "You can get the results of your dreams without spending sweat and time. It's not me who seduced them, but the idea of getting something for nothing in their hearts.
."
"Is there not a strong-willed person who rejects my virus?" Ultimate Iron Man opened his arms again and said: "If there is really no one, then their weak willpower is destined to be harvested by anyone, and their money
Not with me, but also with other scammers.”
Just as Schiller was about to open his mouth to refute, Ultimate Iron Man interrupted him and said: "Do you think you have nothing to do with it? If I didn't have experience in researching the Extremis virus, I wouldn't be able to make a device that could be used to steal computing power.
The zombie virus cannot save the universe you want to save."
Ultimate Iron Man took a deep breath, tilted his head and said, "To be honest, what interest would a person like me have in saving the universe? If I had to choose, I would only choose to be alone."
"But when you came to me, I knew you had a unique talent that no other idiot in the world had." The Ultimate Iron Man looked straight into Schiller's eyes and said, "Tell me what it is, Schiller...
…”
He took half a step forward again, and Schiller almost had no place to stand. He pressed tightly against the wall behind him, tried hard to turn his head, and shook his head silently.
There was a flash of coldness in Ultimate Iron Man's eyes, but he hid it very well. He saw Schiller's lips move, but in the end he didn't say anything, so he licked his lips in disappointment.
The Ultimate Iron Man took a few steps back and saw Schiller's obviously relaxed and slightly confused attitude. He showed a smile and said: "Don't get me wrong, I will not treat my kind who may exist in this world like you.
Being a gun user is just a matter of pure curiosity."
The expression on Schiller's face did not change, and the Ultimate Iron Man knew that he did not believe this statement, but he felt that he had done enough today, so he said: "I heard that you are giving a speech to an interstellar person near here.
Civilized royalty doing therapy?”
Schiller looked at him with some vigilance. The Ultimate Iron Man shook his head and said, "I told you, you must give me a chance to get to know you, otherwise why should I work for you in vain?"
"But the universe..."
"You knew I was not a hero when you found me. Do I still have any illusions about my sudden awakening? If that's the case, you might as well go find the Iron Man of your universe."
A tangled expression flashed across Schiller's face, and Ultimate Iron Man had already secured the victory. He further expressed his goodwill and said: Although I am not interested in saving the universe, I am very curious about you, and I have told you so.
You have talents that those idiots don't have, and I think you are a friend worth keeping."
To Ultra Iron Man's expectation, Schiller showed a shocked expression, seemingly surprised by Ultra Iron Man's comments.
The Ultimate Iron Man smiled in his heart and thought that he lacked love and praise, his stance was not firm enough, his self-boundaries were blurred, he had secrets that could not be easily revealed to any friends, and he was under tremendous pressure - a perfect prey.
And Schiller also smiled in his heart, and thought, charming, dedicated, ruthless enough - a perfect hunter.
