“So you went to see Odin?”
“Don’t mention it, I didn’t see him at all.” Strange leaned on the table in the office of Arkham Sanatorium, and said, “I don’t understand why the teacher is so anxious.”
“We didn’t make an appointment, we just drew a circle and went to Asgard, but Odin went out and had to wait for a while before he came back.”
“In just a few hours, you took an interstellar trip?” Stark said, sitting on the sofa next to him.
“If you are jealous, just say it.” Strange retorted without hesitation.
But he still said helplessly: “I said we shouldn’t tell my teacher about this plan so early. She is a little too excited now.”
“When we returned to Kamar-Taj, before I left, she asked more than a dozen wizards to call the cosmic demons who had traded before, and they kept calling even though they couldn’t get through. The first one to respond was Mephisto…”
“Did you see him? The so-called Lord of Hell?”
“No, but I heard his voice, but they used an ancient language that I couldn’t understand.”
“What does that sound like?” Stark asked curiously: “You actually heard the voice of the devil.”
“What’s the matter? When I went to Asgard, I saw the World Tree.” Strange said proudly: “There are also Pegasus flying in the sky and elves in the spring.”
bidige.
“Then you Did you see the gods in the mythology? “
Strange shook his head and said, “We went there too suddenly. Asgard didn’t arrange anyone to entertain us, and many people left with Odin. The only one at home was a god named Loki, the prince of Asgard. He received us, but my impression of him was very ordinary. “
“Why?”
“It’s hard to say. Since I started learning magic, my intuition has become more sensitive. I always feel that he is not a good person. “
“Then your intuition is right.” Schiller said to Strange: “The big fool we picked up a few days ago said that his brother is the god of lies and fraud.”
“By the way, I am sure this time that the alien who fell to the earth is indeed Odin’s son, because I heard that Odin went out to deal with the trouble he caused. “
“Where is Thor now?” Stark asked Schiller. “He is currently cooperating with the physical examination at SHIELD, and he should be released soon.”
“Are Nick really willing to release him? According to what you said, he caused a big trouble in his own home before, forcing his father to come out and settle it personally. How much trouble will he cause on Earth?”
“Steve has tested him before. Apart from his slightly greater strength than ordinary people and incredible health, he has no special abilities.”
After speaking, Schiller looked down at his watch and said, “So far, Nick should have asked what he wants to know. The next step is to use SHIELD to find him a house and a job, and let several agents watch him 24 hours a day to observe the behavior of aliens…”
“I always think that this approach is somewhat dangerous. Even if he does not have extraordinary power, his values are completely different from those of humans. He is equivalent to a mentally ill person who has been suffering from the disease…”
“Whether he is mentally ill or not is not up to you.” Schiller said with a smile.
“You didn’t take Nick’s black money to write a diagnosis for him again??” Stark stared at Schiller with wide eyes.
“You want to make this kind of money?”
“You should take care of yourself first.” Schiller looked down at his watch and said, “Miss Pepper is done with her work recently. You are in trouble, Mr. Stark, who understands women’s hearts the most.”
When Stark heard that Schiller wanted to talk to him about this topic, he almost ran away. After he left, Strange looked outside the door, then walked over and closed the door, saying, “You let him continue like this?”
He pointed to his chest, indicating that he was referring to the energy problem in Stark’s chest.
“It seems that learning magic has indeed changed you a lot. You actually care about Stark.”
“I just think he is the guarantee of our R\u0026D capabilities. After all, we still have many problems to solve, such as energy conversion and storage. If he dies, the follow-up will definitely become very troublesome.”
“Didn’t you notice?”
“What?”
“We know that the reactor in his chest is a time bomb, which may kill him within a year, but we are not in a hurry.”
“So why?” Strange tilted his head and stared at Schiller. “Did you see the model on his lab table when you went to the lab last time?”
Strange frowned and thought for a moment, then said, “I think I saw it. Is it the one next to the bookshelf?”
“Yes, that’s the model of the Ark reactor.”
“You mean, he already made a replacement? Then why didn’t he change it?”
“Because it’s the technology from his father.”
“Well…” Strange shook his head, obviously not understanding. “He’s more naive than I thought, gambling with his own life.”
“It’s not entirely for anger. He thinks there’s still room for improvement in this technology. He wants to make a perfect product directly and then solve it once and for all. More importantly, this can prove that he’s better than his father.”
“Stop talking about him, let’s talk about you. I heard from the nurse that you didn’t come home last Christmas and Easter?” Schiller asked Strange.

“That has nothing to do with you.” Strange’s tone lowered, and he said, “I’m not your patient, and I don’t need your enlightenment.”
“That’s what every patient of mine says.”
“That is no longer important to me. Not only do I have money and status, but I also have access to areas that ordinary people cannot access. I even took an interstellar journey a few hours ago and arrived at the legendary Kingdom of God… …”
“Did you know? When you just said this, your expression was exactly the same as when Stark mentioned Howard. Whenever this name appeared in his ears, he would say how brilliant the Stark Group is now…”
“Then what do you advise him to do? Forgive Howard?”
Schiller sighed and said: “Generally speaking, psychiatrists advise you to let go of something and forgive someone, not because they think the person did the right thing, but because if you continue to dwell on it, it will eventually damage the person.” Only your own emotions and spirit, you should know better than me.”
“Well, maybe I shouldn’t say this, but I’d really like to hear about your life experience, and then compare your father and Stark’s father, which one is worse.” Schiller continued.
Strange snorted coldly and said, “Good people in this world are all different, but bad people are all the same.”
But after a while, he still said: “That drunkard can only get drunk. He knew that Donna could only move around with the help of a wheelchair, but he still refused to spend money to buy her a better wheelchair so that she could pass by. I fell into the river while I was there.”
Unlike Stark, Strange’s tone was very cold when he talked about this experience, and no ups and downs could be heard.
“I originally studied medicine to cure my sister’s legs, but on the day I got the scholarship, I called him, and his first words were, your sister is dead.”
“The second sentence asked me to give him the scholarship.”
“Then it seems your father is worse.”
“Just because he’s poorer.”
“I heard you have a younger brother.”
“Yes, brother…” Strange’s tone was a bit contemptuous, “That drunkard doesn’t like Donna, nor does he like me, but he is only obedient to his youngest son Victor.”
“That’s why I don’t want to go back, because it’s not my home. They have a deep love for each other and have nothing to do without me.”
After speaking, Strange lowered his head to write again. When Strange mentioned his life experience, he did not react as fiercely as Stark. His tone was very calm, as if he was talking about someone else’s business.
“In this way, Stark is quite lucky. After all, he is an only son. He was accompanied by his old butler and uncle during his childhood.”
Schiller put his hand on his chin and sighed: “That stupid guy who fell from the sky is like this too. I just don’t know if Odin is really partial or something else.”
“I am different from him. My grades have always been very good and I have won all the scholarships.”
“He also fought in the north and south and made many military exploits. But the result is that neither of you can go home now.”
“He was thrown out, not me.”
Strange’s tone remained unchanged, and he said: “I have never received as much praise from my father in my life as I have received from my teachers in the past few days.”
“Stark also said that his father always felt that he knew nothing, so now he is desperately trying to prove that he knows everything.”
“It makes no sense,” Strange concluded at last.
“This is meaningless!” Pepper shouted: “When will you put down your damn arrogance and stop risking your life??”
“Who do you want to prove to? Your father? But can you think about it? No father would want to see his son risking his life to get angry with himself!”
In the laboratory of Stark Tower, Pepper walked up to Stark, looked into his eyes and said: “If I knew that while I was busy cleaning up your mess, you were busy looking for your own death, Then I will never care about you! Stark!”
“I’m not looking for death. Listen to me. The thing I made is not perfect. I hope to have a more perfect finished product…”
“When did this happen? Are you still struggling with your meaningless standards? You are about to die!”
“You know what? Tony, I really can’t think of any reason for a person to still dwell on the past and memories when he knows that his life span is less than a year.”
After saying that, she covered her forehead and sighed: “I don’t know whether you should be brave or arrogant.”
“I can obviously do better, it just takes a little time. One year is enough, believe me, Pepper.”
Stark walked up, hugged Pepper and said, “Even if I really only have one year to live, at least I will have you with me.”
“You’re always like this. You only talk nice and never solve the problem I’m most worried about.” Pepper sighed tiredly and said, “You treat all women like this.”
“Come on, trust me, I’ll fix this.”
Looking at Stark’s eyes that were always a little moist, Pepper still didn’t say any more accusations.
After Pepper left, Stark sat down on the edge of the experimental table again, holding the model in his hand.
Stark looked at the model in his hand. When he looked at it like this, he would think of his favorite toy, the car that was assembled by his father and son.
Howard finished the chassis and engine, and Stark installed the shell, tires and seats, and then wrote their common surname on the car door with a pen.
This was a good moment that he found after searching for a long time in his memory.
Everyone thought that Stark just didn’t want to use Howard’s technology, but only Stark himself knew that he just wanted to make this technology more perfect, and that was not because he wanted to prove that he was stronger than Howard.
He just wanted this to become a work completed by their father and son, just like the car. The toy became a commemoration of his first half of life, and the Ark Reactor would be his hope for the second half of his life.
In this way, he could also regard his father as having never been absent from his life.
