The moment they saw the corpse, everyone's eyes began to wander over each other, and the undercurrent surging under the silence was about to burst out, and the first to speak was Thor, who was holding Sif by the hand.

"What's going on?" Thor's voice was very low, and the anger contained in it terrified the guests present, and no one here could withstand the wrath of the God King.

It can only be said that fortunately, today's banquet is not a formal wedding ceremony, but a banquet to welcome the guests of interstellar civilization, and the ceremony will not be officially held until early tomorrow morning.

But such an accident is staggering enough, it is the real ruler of one of the three major empires of the universe, who died at the banquet in Asgard in front of so many civilization leaders.

Thor set his eyes on Rockie, and Schiller turned to look at Rockie, who bowed her head slightly and said, "I'll investigate right away." ”

The insiders present knew what she meant by the investigation, she only needed to go to the universe to take a look, and she could go back in time to see who did it, and at worst, she could go to the Time Authority and ask Morbius to come here with a machine to go back in time.

Rogie turned around slowly, and at that moment a voice rang out: "Wait a minute, Your Highness Rogie." ”

Rogie turned around and found that it was Stark, Thor's eyes fell on Stark's face again, and Stark touched his wrist unhurriedly and said, "Should we confirm the identity of the deceased first?" Although she looks like Her Majesty the Queen of the Xia Empire, but this is the palace of Asgard, and there is no reason why Her Majesty would die here, should we first check if this is a stand-in or an illusion? ”

As soon as Stark said this, he felt a gaze fall on him, Stark raised his eyes to look at Schiller who was staring at him opposite, he didn't continue, just smiled.

At this time, Sif who was the leader of the Asgard Guards frowned and said, "In order to ensure the smooth progress of the banquet, the soldiers of the Guards are all waiting outside the venue, but the other members of the Guards who have no security duties, including doctors, coroners and others, have already withdrawn from Asgard. ”

"Your Majesty, if you want to verify your identity, I will have someone notify the professionals to come and investigate now."

"No need." Instead of looking at Sif and rejecting her offer.

But everyone also understands that now Sif is not the captain of the palace guards, she is the fiancée of the God King, and she can't touch the corpse with a team of people, not even leave here temporarily, which is very rude.

"I guess there's a doctor here, don't I?" Friggya's voice came, and she looked at Schiller, who turned his head slightly and did not look at Frigga, but glanced at Odin's face.

Obviously, everyone on the field has a purpose and a secret, and a delicate and fragile balance is gradually established.

All people have information that others don't have, and that will be the key to their own ends.

They were sure that the smart people present would understand the situation - they could not use too crude game-breaking methods to get to the bottom of the situation when they did not understand the purpose of others, which would only cause problems for themselves.

Under the shroud of this atmosphere, even a fool understands that this will not be a simple homicide, or that the Queen of the Xia Empire will die, and that she will die at an Asgardian banquet, so there is no possibility of a simple homicide.

Schiller stood there in silence for a few seconds, but instead of stepping forward, he said, "I'm a psychiatrist, I don't know magic, I can't perform autopsies, I can't solve illusions, I think there's someone better suited for this job than me." ”

With that, he turned his head to the other side and looked at a figure in the crowd, and everyone followed his gaze to focus on the figure, and Strange walked through the crowd with a wine glass.

His gaze fell first on the corpse on the ground, then at Thor and said, "I'm not a forensic doctor, just a surgeon." ”

"But at least you can see if it's magic, right, Supreme Mage?" Thor emphasized.

"Rogie can too...... Well, it's rude to let a costumed Highness touch a corpse, I'll do it. Strange turned and placed the glass on the waiter's tray.

Schiller's eyes didn't follow Strange's movements like the others, but only glanced at the wine glass that Strange had just put down.

The Supreme Mage untied his cloak and handed it to Rogie, who was closest to him, before walking over to the Queen's corpse and crouching down, his eyes flickering slightly, and his fingertips flashing with a golden light.

Strange's fingertips tapped on the ground, and the magic light rippled, and as it swept over the queen's corpse, there was nothing unusual about the magic fluctuations, and most of the people present could see this.

"The corpse is real." Strange shook his head and said, "No traces of magic fabrications or illusions have been found. ”

"So can you determine the cause of death?" Thor asked again.

Strange stared at the corpse and said, "I would like to examine the wounds on the corpse, but this may be a bit offensive, and I'm not sure the Queen and her family will agree to me touching her body at will." ”

"Leland! Leland! Your Majesty Lelandra!! An anxious shout came from the main entrance of Asgard, and a strong male of the Fierce Feather Clan rushed in with two guards.

"That's the princess of the Shea Empire." Rogie explained to Schiller in a low voice,

But Schiller's attention was not on the prince, but on the face of the young guard who had just entered.

"Aren't their royal guards all Fierce Feathers?" Schiller asked Rogie in a low voice.

"The Xia Empire is an empire of great ethnic integration, and although the Mammoth Clan is a royal race, in order to show respect for other races, their guards cover members of more than 20 races."

"Humans, too?"

Rogie was stunned for a moment, and she followed Schiller's gaze to find that the young soldier standing behind Wang Fu who had fallen to the ground looked exactly like a human.

Logie's eyes flashed with a glimmer of magic, and then she realized that the young guard was really human, or at least certainly of human blood.

There are many humanoid races in the universe, and this phenomenon starts from the existence of some beings who spread life at the beginning, but in fact, humanoid races are the mainstream of interstellar society, and most of the races are vertebrates with limbs.

But on this basis, there are also slight differences between different races, such as skin color, which can no longer be regarded as differences, some races have not only four limbs, but may have four arms, some races have a fishtail, and some races even have two heads.

Even if the appearance is exactly the same as that of a human, the visceral blood vessels and muscle tissue are bound to be very different.

After all, there are very few races in the universe that are as weak as humans, and even if they don't look good and don't look strong enough, most of them can use other energies.

This means that their organs will undergo special changes when they evolve, and it is impossible to be completely consistent with humans, a physically weak race that cannot use energy.

But the young man on the other side conforms to the laws of the human body from the internal organ structure to the blood vessels to the muscle tissue, so he is very likely to be a human being.

However, the fact that human beings will become members of the Xi'a Empire's escort team is very strange in itself, human beings are not member races under the jurisdiction of the Xi'a Empire at all, the territories of the two races are far apart, and human beings have never traded with the Xi'a Empire, and the two sides can't fight each other.

So who could this human being be here? How could he join the palace guards of the Xia Empire? Why did he appear next to the queen and princess?

Schiller searched for information in his mind quickly, and he knew that all human beings who could get out of the Nine Kingdoms were not weak hands, they must have something to rely on, and they must be a famous existence in the Marvel world.

Searching for the Greek Imperial Guard as a keyword, suddenly Schiller found an extremely inconspicuous piece of information in the depths of his dusty memory.

Star-Lord's origin story in Guardians of the Galaxy chronicles one of his experiences, the first half of which is too complicated, but in short, Star-Lord Peter Quayle is imprisoned in an intergalactic prison called Kane.

Star-Lord wants to escape from prison, so he finds a few teammates, and on the way to escape, he finds a big explosion in the intergalactic prison Kane, so he wants to go over to check the situation, and at this time he meets a gladiator, and later, this gladiator recruits Star-Lord into the escort of the Xia Empire.

However, in the comics, Star-Lord refuses to be drafted and chooses to remain in Kane Prison, but there is no doubt that Star-Lord once had a chance to join the Imperial Guardian of Xia.

The butterfly effect of the Traveler was too complex, and Schiller was not sure if it was he who brought about the change, leading Star-Lord to agree to the gladiator's request and thus actually join the guards of the Xia Empire.

But in this inconspicuous story, a famous big man is still involved, that is, Thanos.

At that time, Star-Lord wanted to deal with an existence called the creator, because he felt that he was not strong enough, so he wanted to pull Thanos as a teammate, and in the comic book plot, Thanos did not agree, but went to beat the creator himself.

In other words, Thanos and Star-Lord have dealt with each other, not only do the two of them have no enmity, but Star-Lord also wants to cooperate with Thanos, so even if Thanos wisely rejects Star-Lord in terms of common enemies, will the two of them cooperate in other aspects?

Schiller turned his head to look at the edge of the dance floor, where the purple-skinned giant was just standing there with his glass in his glass, drinking himself, without saying a word, as if he had no idea of the chaos in the middle of the dance floor.

But Schiller understands that Thanos is not a man who keeps to himself, and if he is not a part of this chaos, no one will believe it.

Was the chaos caused by the Queen's murder a sudden?

On the contrary, all conspiracies move in silence, and the final chaos is only the result of the collision of various factors and the accumulation of power to the peak.

Standing in the middle of the bright and wide dance floor, Schiller was able to get a glimpse of everyone's thoughtful expressions.

Looking through each person's pupils, connecting perspectives that others don't know, can form a complete truth.

Without this information, Schiller, on the other hand, had to deduce from everyone's words, reactions, and attitudes within a few minutes of the chaos from which it had been, where and when it had arisen.

Peel back the cocoon, deduce step by step, and deduce everyone's motives, methods, and ultimate goals.

As the brain thinks fast, the heart begins to beat faster and faster, and the drum beat is like a prelude to the opening of the ball.

Time stands still, space freezes, and the last rays of light flow down Schiller's brow brow bone, and then like the afterglow over the Asgard Bridge, the curtain falls on the darkness.

The sound in Vanity Fair faded and the light dimmed.

Suddenly, a violent flash of light flashed, and Schiller woke up from a somewhat confused sleepiness, and outside the bedroom window of Asgard, he could see the bright energy tail flame of the engine port of the Royal Ship of the Xia Empire as it slowed down and landed.

It was a strange thing, Schiller thought, that the Queen and her wife would come to congratulate the Queen and her husband in person, and earlier than the other two empires.
