Chapter 388: Outrageous Stitching (Part I)
In Stark's field of vision, Schiller, dressed in a doctor's uniform, slowly walked up several flights of steps to the center of the open space in front of the door, and when he opened his arms, the light falling from the top of the tower shone on his body, and behind him were layers of floors and stairs that seemed to have no end.
"Welcome to my temple of mind."
They heard Schiller say this, and then saw him lower his arms, bow his head, and say, "Whoever is different from ordinary people at any time and in any place is called a sick person." ”
"But when you can't get an advantage in a group by ordinary means, then being the sickest person is the only way to get out of this mediocre and boring life."
When they heard this, Schiller's tone became subdued.
"If you can't cure this madness, turn it into an unrivaled force and give up going with the ordinary......
"Be a fearless, terminally ill madman."
Although Charles had seen such a scene, he was still amazed by the unique temperament that Schiller exuded at this moment.
The most powerful mind-reading person in the world knows very well that the spiritual world of man is his greatest charm, and he has never seen a person as special as Schiller, with such a unique and irresistible spiritual world.
Stark and Steve were silent, and now they finally understood why Charles said Schiller couldn't be treated, or that he didn't really need to be treated.
If a person can have such a magnificent spiritual world, but only appear slightly different from ordinary people on the surface, then in fact, no one has a position to regard him as a patient, and no one is qualified to treat him.
Just as Stark was about to speak, he heard a "click" sound coming from behind him, and he turned back to see a large lock hanging on the door that had been closed by Schiller.
"I don't like to be a guest who doesn't say goodbye, especially one of them, who threatens to treat me." Schiller smiled and said, "Since you have come to my house as a guest, how can I not find something to entertain you?" ”
Steve also glanced back at the lock and said, "Are you going to lock us up here?" Is this also considered hospitality? ”
"No, how could I entertain someone with a lock? That's just to prevent you from leaving too early, after all, I don't have many visitors here, and if you have guests, of course you have to stay a little longer. ”
Stark had a bad premonition, and he found that it had been getting more and more lately, and that it had all been fulfilled, and as soon as this feeling had risen in his mind, he heard Schiller say in a calm tone:
"I'd love to show you the way, but I think that since you're so confident, it's hard for you to visit freely."
"You can go up this staircase on the left, and pick a room for each person, any room may have a key, and you can't leave this place until you get the key."
"Now ...... then" Schiller raised his head, raised his voice, and said in a slightly excited tone: "The game begins!" ”
In an instant, Schiller's figure disappeared, Stark tilted his head and looked at Charles, Professor Charles understood what he meant, he shook his head and said, "No, I can't forcibly take you out of here." ”
"If it were me, I could have tried to do this, but Steve, including you, you are actually just ordinary people in terms of mental strength, and I'm afraid you can't accept too violent shuttles."
"I'll have to make a hole in the wall to force my way out of here, but the aftermath will likely affect your consciousness, so ......"
"Okay." Stark crossed his arms and looked up at the tower, and said, "I'd like to see what will happen here." ”
The three of them walked up the staircase that Schiller had spoken of, and their eye-opening tour had only just begun.
As soon as they arrived at the flat corridor, several people saw countless figures shuttling through.
Stark had just taken two steps forward when he saw Schiller approaching him, Stark wanted to ask questions, this Schiller passed by him, Stark turned to look at his back, but his left shoulder was hit by another Schiller who hurriedly walked over.
"Oh, sorry! Trouble let's go! The Schiller walked past him quickly, and Stark tried to reach out to stop him, but was knocked around by another Schiller.
Schiller, who had just walked past the last one, seemed to be in the state of a teenager, and when Steve turned his head to look at him curiously, he saw another child running over.
In the corridor across the patio, there was still Schiller on the phone, and Schiller had just come out of the door, Stark stiffened his neck, and only said after a while, "...... I really kind of underestimated how crazy he was. ”
"Don't tell me it's all his personality?" Steve said as he looked at the scene in the corridor opposite, and he said with some hesitation, "Is this really still necessary for treatment?" ”
Charles sighed and said, "That's what I said before, I can't treat Schiller." ”
He explains: "Most people with multiple personality disorder are stimulated by some kind of stimulus, and after being stimulated, their original personality is unable to tolerate this stimulus, so a new personality is created to deal with something they cannot bear. ”
"Of course, some people may split multiple personalities at once, or they may split multiple personalities due to repeated stimulation."
"But the more split the personality, the more oppressed the personality will be, and the proportion of his consciousness will decrease, which will cause him to control his body for less and less time, and lose consciousness for longer and longer."
"This can seriously affect the normal life of the patient, so the main personality may have a lot of malice towards other personalities and not accept them, which will lead to more and more serious separation."
"And when the personality becomes malicious towards other personalities, the other personalities will become more and more uncontrollable, and will even do things that harm the personality, and if they do not intervene, it will eventually evolve into a struggle between personalities."
Charles also walked to the railing, looked at the figures coming and going in the corridor opposite, and said, "I don't know if you fantasize about creating a whole new personality to complete some troublesome things for yourself." ”
Steve smiled and said, "yes, when I was a cartoonist, I fantasized about how nice it would be if there was another me to hook the line instead of me?" ”
"A lot of people think of multiple personalities as a 'convenient' disease, and they think that having personalities with different abilities and identities can help them gain more capabilities."
"In this way, they can run away from what they don't want to do, throw those things at their other personality, but in reality, it can't be done at all."
"If left unintervened and treated, it will eventually evolve into a situation of cannibalism between personalities."
"So......" Stark asked, looking at the tower, with its countless floors, as if talking to himself, "how the hell did he do it?" ”
"It's not hard to split your personality, and anyone who has a strong sense of control over themselves can do that, including you and me, Tony."
"But the difficulty is that how to make these personalities live in peace and perform their own duties, which is almost impossible to do."
"Any personality that is born will not feel like a sub-personality, they will want control of the body, they will naturally want to kill the main personality."
"So where exactly is Schiller's master's personality?" Steve asked.
"I'm afraid, we'll have to go deep into this tower to find out." Charles turned around and said, "I've been here a few times and haven't explored it deeply, but I have to warn you that this must be a very dangerous place. ”
"In the people I've seen with dissociative identity disorder, one or more of their personalities can be dangerous."
"Among so many personalities, there must be a few who are extremely dangerous." Charles said, then turned to Stark and Steve and explained: "You should have had nightmares too, if you are injured in this world, it is equivalent to having a very serious nightmare, which will not kill you, but it will damage your spirit, and it may take a few days of cultivation to recover." ”
"So, if you really encounter a danger that you can't deal with at all, then concentrate and say my name silently, and I can forcibly bring you back here."
"It's going to drain some of your spirits, but at least it won't keep you in bed for days."
"Thank you, Professor." Stark looked at the situation in the hallway, and he said, "Just now, Schiller said that we should each pick a room, does that mean that only one person can enter a room?" ”
"I think it's safe to do what he says." Steve touched his chin and said, "Looks like we're going to have to make a head." ”
"Which floor are you going to?" Stark looked at him and asked, and Steve shrugged his shoulders and said, "You pick first, I'll go anywhere." ”
Stark snorted coldly and said, "You'd better not underestimate the enemy, your mental strength is just an ordinary person, and you don't have a strong control over the consciousness world, you'd better pick a simple room, or ......"
Steve turned his head from side to side, his gaze fell on the nearest door, and he said, "Otherwise, this is it." ”
said. He stepped forward and looked at the door, there was no mark on it, just that the doorknob looked like a building block, and without looking closely, Steve took the handle and spun around, then pushed the door and walked in.
Stark glanced at the doorknob and said, "I think I should have stopped him just now, it's definitely not a good place to be in the back." ”
At this time, Charles also turned and walked to the stairs, and he said, "You pick a room on this floor, and I'll go up and have a look." ”
Stark stood in the middle of the hallway, looked left and right, and then strode to a room at the end of the hallway, where the door was unmarked, but the handle was a somewhat old-looking wooden doorknob with a strange symbol painted on it.
Stark deliberately observed the symbol, the whole symbol was made up of lines, the outside was an equilateral triangle, the center was a perfect circle, and the center of the perfect circle was a vertical line.
Stark was sure he had never seen the symbol, but he twisted the doorknob anyway and walked inside.
