Chapter 2699 Hollywood Rhapsody (Fifty-Seven)

Loki relaxed his arms and leaned back in his chair. He said, "I know what you are talking about, but we didn't know each other at all at that time..."

"You don't know many people now," Schiller said.

"So if I come to you with anxiety, what are you going to do? Tell me the truth?"

"No, of course I will guide you to discover it yourself. Or I would also suggest that you go and find Thor in the main timeline. Without Strange's interference, he will give you the answer you want."

Loki let out a long sigh.

Then he asked a little puzzled: "Then why didn't you continue? The plan has already reached your favorite consultation part, right?"

Schiller said: "It is indeed his favorite part of the consultation. So if he is not here now, it would be difficult for him to resist going ahead with the plan. The reason for not doing so is because he has something to ask of you."

Loki looked at Schiller with some confusion.

"I made up a backstory for myself a while ago," Schiller said, tapping his fingertips on the table. "It was perfect, flawless, tragic, and self-contained, explaining why I am the way I am now."

Loki tilted his head and said, "Isn't this great?"

Schiller shook his head and said, "But this is totally unnecessary. It is because of some hostage complex that I want to come up with a story that satisfies everyone, so that they can understand me and deepen their connection with me."

"And now you don't want to do that?"

"I just think this connection is too fake." Schiller frowned, crossed his fingers, pointed his index finger and said, "I have tried many times to tell them that it is not because of what I have experienced that I have become who I am now, but they don't seem to understand."

"Because it is indeed incredible." Loki said, "You cannot deny that the environment has a strong influence on people. We are the collection of the society we come into contact with. No one is immune to the influence."

"Being influenced and being completely shaped are two different things," Schiller said. "I have never denied being influenced, but every time I was influenced, there was more than one path before me. The path I took was the one I wanted to choose, not the only one I could choose."

Schiller dropped his eyes and said, “It may be beyond your imagination, but there has never been a second in my life when I was forced to do anything.”

Loki obviously didn't quite believe it, but he still said, "What do you want me to do?"

"I felt like the original backstory wasn't good enough and made me look like a poor little person."

"But you say it makes sense."

“Yes, it makes sense, but it’s not me, you know?” Schiller said. “This backstory is about who I am in your eyes, who has a miserable life and a lot of hardship, but who is still trying to heal myself.”

"...Aren't you like that?" Loki became even more suspicious. He said, "At least in terms of being an ordinary person, your efforts are obvious to all. Isn't this your effort to heal yourself?"

"And from what I can see, you must have had some miserable experiences. Even if they are not consistent with what you made up, they still exist and it is not a lie. So what's the problem?"

"The problem is that this background story embellished me too much in order to please you. Everything became forced by the environment, and my own subjective initiative was almost zero."

"What's wrong with that?"

"False cognition leads to false connections." Schiller seemed to have no idea how to explain it. He said, "I know that everyone will unconsciously beautify themselves in the process of interpersonal communication, but I beautify myself a little too much, which is why you never realize my danger and always take actions like throwing stones into the calm water and even skipping stones on the water."

Loki was horrified and said, "Aren't you dangerous enough? I mean, you don't act that dangerous???"

Schiller was also very shocked that he was so shocked now. He said, "Then what have I been telling you for the past few minutes? Didn't I emphasize that the me you usually see is quite stable?"

Loki waved his hand to the side of his head and said, "Sorry, I'm a little confused... I think I understand what you mean."

"We know very little about you, so we can only treat you based on the level of danger you appear to be. Normally, we don't think you are dangerous, so we will take some more radical measures to help you control your so-called illness."

"But in fact, you are much more dangerous than you let on. You think we can't accept you beneath your calm surface, so you made up a backstory to appease us and show that you are consistent inside and out."

"But now you think it's not good to let us let our guard down..."

"No." Schiller suddenly interrupted, "I realized that I was trying to comfort you before because I had a hostage complex that I had created. But it might not be a good thing to continue to comfort you like this, because I can't completely guarantee that you will never see what is under the water."

"So you think your past story is an opportunity." Loki understood immediately and said, "You can show the real you in your past story, so that they can investigate and learn about you. This way, they will be more cautious in their attitude towards you and it will be less likely for you to lose control."

“Very clever,” Schiller commented.

"But you didn't lose control last time either." Loki said, "Although you looked very painful at that time, you didn't do anything extreme."

"Because at that time I was still immersed in the hostage complex. Some things are like this. If you don't know, you can keep playing, but if you know the truth, it's hard to devote yourself to it."

Loki nodded. He also realized this. When he didn't know that this was Schiller's act of revenge, he was always struggling between him and Thor, Thor and him. But once he knew that their actions were all induced, it would be difficult to continue playing this trick of putting emotions first. From the perspective of the situation in Asgard, he could even understand why Thor had locked him up for more than a thousand years.

"what do you want me to do?"

"First, I need to know how you separated a time branch. Give me a time branch like yours. After I change the past, you can help me overlay it on the present timeline."

"Why not just travel back and change it again?"

"Because it needs to be repeatedly modified and adjusted, I need to control the right degree, which is both realistic enough and not having too much impact on the future. If I repeatedly fiddle with the main time stream, problems may arise."

"I asked Supreme Kang for it," Loki said. "He is basically the only one who can separate and cover the time stream seamlessly without causing any serious consequences. But I'm not sure if he would give it to me if I asked for it again."

"And most importantly." Loki seemed a little worried. He looked at Schiller and said, "Natasha once described the world under your tower to me. It sounds very dangerous. I understand that you want to show your true self, but don't be too real. Superheroes don't have that strong psychological endurance."

"Don't worry." Schiller said, "The first person to investigate my past must be Nick Fury. He doesn't have such a high moral bottom line. As long as our interests are bound together, he will cover up my past even if I have destroyed the universe."

Loki thought about it and agreed. If Nick was the only one who suffered, and at most the agents of SHIELD were also affected, it would not have any impact on the stability of the situation.

To put it bluntly, the moral bottom line of this group of people is a far cry from that of superheroes. They only care about interests. As long as Schiller is still useful, they will cover up all news that is unfavorable to Schiller like covering their own underwear.

But at the same time, for the sake of stability and interests of the situation, they will warn the superheroes and let them pay attention to the danger of Schiller, instead of either letting it go or taking radical measures as usual.

Loki did not disappoint Schiller. He quickly convinced Supreme Kang and got another time stream to write a new version of the real background story for Schiller.

But before that, Schiller encountered another problem. The call was from Peter.

"Something's wrong, doctor." Peter's tone revealed anxiety. He said, "I took Gwen to the Presbyterian Hospital for a checkup. The doctor there said there was something wrong with the child."

"What is the problem?"

"As you know, the latest technology is to use a kind of radiation to completely remove the fertilized egg without any side effects. We just did this operation, but it was completely ineffective. This is the first case in history."

"The doctor said that we could use a more traditional medical method. George and I disagreed because compared to that technology, medical abortion would still be more or less harmful. At least it would cause Gwen to bleed."

"But considering that delaying further might cause bigger problems, Gwen insisted on doing it, but... but it was still useless."

"What do you mean useless?"

"There's just no reaction. Gwen took the medicine, so it should have a reaction within three hours, but there's no...nothing."

"Is she feeling unwell?" Schiller asked.

"No, she didn't. Normally, she would feel a little nauseous and have lower abdominal pain, but she didn't feel anything. The baby was fine and not affected at all. The indicators of various examinations were also normal. The medicine seemed to have disappeared out of thin air."

Peter's voice revealed a puzzled look. He said, "Dr. Connors and Dr. Ethan are here, but they didn't see anything unusual. Anyway, it's not working."

Schiller was also a little confused, so he had to return the body to Greedy, and then said, "Don't worry, Peter, this means that this child may be unusual. Have you asked the doctors or wizards of Asgard to come and take a look?"

Peter choked visibly. He said, "You said this child was born with magic... but I never had any. I mean, well, his coming was indeed a bit strange. Gwen and I confirmed it countless times. We two definitely didn't..."

"Okay, I know, Peter." Schiller comforted, "I know you are not such an irresponsible person. You two are very cautious. It is possible that this is not your fault."

He glanced at Strange, who had a dark face, and said, "I'll ask Loki and Stephen to go back. With them here, no matter what the problem is, it will be solved."

Schiller walked over, grabbed Strange who was still arguing with Stark and said, "I know what you are angry about. Loki played with your feelings. This is all his trick, but have you ever thought about why you are angry about this?"

"Of course it's because he's so..."

"Do you still remember that you laughed at 'How could there be people in this world who were deceived by a god whose name is the God of Fraud'? Don't you know what his name is?"

Strange's next words were blocked, and there was an obvious embarrassment on his face. He remembered that he had used this to mock Stark.

"Swindlers can only deceive those who trust them." Schiller said meaningfully: "If Loki realizes this, do you think he will realize something else at the same time?"

"what?"

"Are you the kind of person who trusts others easily?"

"Of course I'm not."

"This is much more effective than standing on the roof of Kamar-Taj and looking up at the stars." Schiller pushed Strange in the direction of Loki and said, "Go."

Marvel also needs to improve their mental quality, otherwise they will be scared to death by the morbidity when the fighting world reopens.
