Chapter 1840: The Madman's Journey (16)

Schiller looked at the notebook and fell into deep thought, Stark who walked behind him recognized Peter's handwriting at a glance, after all, Schiller's Spider-Man of the universe spent most of his time in the laboratory of Stark Tower, and they spent more time together than Iron Man and Spider-Man of any other universe.

Therefore, in addition to having a father-son mood for Spider-Man, Stark adds more attention to the teacher's excellent disciples, and after a long time, Stark will feel that his heart is being pulled up and he will not be able to breathe as soon as he hears bad news about Spider-Man.

At this time, that inexplicable anxiety surrounded Stark, making him even more unsuitable for too much attention, and rushed forward to take the notebook.

He first glanced at the passage that Schiller was reading, but the preface did not match the preface, and he could not see anything, so Stark began to flip forward.

In this way, Spider-Man, who has never lost his memory in this universe, uses the truth about this universe recorded in a short time to show Stark.

First of all, as an eyewitness, Spider-Man has experienced the complete plot of the zombie universe, and the situation is roughly as follows:

The zombie sentinels fell from the sky, and the members of the Avengers came to resolve the crisis, but unfortunately they were bitten by the zombie sentinels, and they turned into zombies to eat on the spot, infecting many people.

The heroes who turned into zombies in the first round include Captain America, Ant-Man, Wasp, etc., and Ant-Man found Black Panther, who arrived a little later to help.

By this time they had already eaten breakfast on the street, and since they were not hungry for a while, Ant-Man decided to lock up the panther and eat it when he was hungry.

When such a big thing happened, Nick Fury, the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., organized the remaining survivor heroes and planned to develop an antidote to the zombie virus.

But how can you say that Reed is the engine of cosmic destruction? Iron Man Stark and Dr. Hulk Banner have studied well, but Reed had a whim, thinking that the zombie virus is a manifestation of human evolution, so why not convert to the great god of evolution?

So he directly lured the inner ghost to the laboratory, causing all the Fantastic Four to be infected.

On the other hand, Nick and Iron Man plan to create a portal to leave the universe and save the existing survivors, but the place where the Fantastic Four studied the virus is not far from the place where they built the portal, and they break into the door on the spot.

The bad thing is that at this time, the teleportation device has actually been built, and the lead is to the universe where the observer is, and after the Fantastic Four bite both of them, they happily travel to another universe.

During this period, a series of major events occurred in this universe, which can be summed up as the zombie virus infecting the world, the planet devourer descending and being eaten by zombie superheroes, and the black panther surviving and returning to Earth, and the zombie superheroes divided into two groups to fight.

After that, a man who wants to take the throne of the Black Panther activates the teleportation device and sends all the zombie superheroes to another universe as well.

A catastrophe broke out in another universe, so serious that all the three major empires of the universe were destroyed, and some of the zombie superheroes killed the moon and bit the observer.

Driven by endless hunger, the worse part of the zombie superheroes want to travel to other universes in search of more food, so they find a portal and use zombie sentries as an energy source.

But at this moment, Spider-Man, who had been turned into a zombie but still hadn't gone bad, opened the jar he was carrying, and the jar was sandman's sand inside.

A huge sandstorm wiped out all the zombie superheroes, and the nanobots against the zombie virus that Iron Man had previously researched were doped in the sand and swept away the zombie virus.

And the zombie sentinels who were previously used as portal energy by the zombie superheroes were sent back to the universe by the observers, and just like that, a cycle began.

The zombie Spider-Man of this universe was also ignorant at first, and he kept reincarnating in this cycle, but since Nick of Schiller's universe got the actual control of the Time Authority, and gradually promoted his multiverse spider mouth trafficking plan, more and more Spider-Man was influenced by him.

Spider-Man, who was helped by Nick, began to gradually project faith into him, which gave Nick some of the power of the Spider Totem, but more importantly, his will began to make more Spider-Men connected by the Spider-Totem hear his voice, and Spider-Man of the Zombie Universe was one of them.

The voices from the spider totem grew louder and louder, interfering with the effects of the two cosmic time resets on Spider-Man, allowing him to gradually regain his consciousness in one reincarnation after another, until he finally came to his senses completely.

Then there are the five resets after Schiller's arrival, and the traces left by the outsiders make Spider-Man determined to do it as soon as possible, and he puts the long-considered plan into practice, and writes all the facts in his journal, hoping that the outsiders will help him.

Stark read all the information silently, he closed his eyes and quietly digested it, but at a certain moment, the endless killing intent revealed from the cracks in his armor made Schiller can't help but turn his head to look at him.

It wasn't even anger, it was just a naked cold killing intent, a desire to destroy the universe in an instant.

But in less than a second, the gap closed again, Stark sighed in silence, he flipped the notebook again, and said, "There are a few questions, you don't have to answer me, I just need to sort out my thoughts." ”

"Judging from the complete story described by Peter, the whole process is divided into two periods, before Spider-Man awakens and after Spider-Man awakens."

"The watershed between these two periods is that when Spider-Man doesn't realize anything, the two universes will go through the complete story flow separately, and the story will not continue until the zombie sentry is thrown back."

"But after Spider-Man awakens, the universe begins to reset irregularly, and the time point of the reset is much earlier than the story is completed."

"I think it may be that the gaze of other universes brought by Spider-Man triggered some kind of special observer effect, which made the cycle of the universe irregular, and even if the cycle was not finished, it would reset endlessly."

Stark held out two fingers flat in front of his eyes and began to turn them clockwise, saying, "These two normal cycles of the universe are like this, from cause to effect to cause, like a tape of a single loop, and then the beginning of the end." ”

Then he turned his finger half a turn clockwise, counterclockwise back to the point of origin and said, "And the cycle we go through is like this, the universe goes forward, and then at some point in time it suddenly rewinds, back to the beginning. ”

"Then the problem arises, if Spider-Man wants to achieve the effect of his plan, he must return the universe to a normal cycle, that is, all the way from cause to effect to cause, rather than suddenly rewinding."

"There's no mention of that part of his plan at all, and I don't know if he doesn't know or if he's ready."

"Another point, he wants us to help, but he should have summed up that the time point of each of our rebirths is getting further and further behind, how can we go back to the original place to help him transmit brainwaves?"

"Wait." Stark frowned suddenly, and he said, "Could these two anomalies actually be the same thing?" ”

"The point in time of our rebirth is getting later and later, which means that the time point of rewind will be further and further back, so sooner or later the point in time of rewind will come to the end of the story, that is, when the zombie superheroes are destroyed by the sandmen, and the observer is ready to throw the zombie sentinels back into this universe."

Stark glanced at the journal again and said, "I know Spider-Man's plan, he plans to wait until that moment, that is, the observer is going to throw, but only a second away from throwing the zombie sentry back into this universe, replace it with his own brain waves, and then control it to commit suicide in the process of teleportation." ”

"In this way, the zombie sentinels will not land in this universe at all, and the cycle will be broken."

Stark raised his head slightly, looking at the group photo of the Avengers members hanging on the wall of the room by Peter, and his tone became heavy to the bottom.

"He wants to sacrifice himself to put an end to the tragedy of both universes once and for all." Stark closed his eyes in pain and said, "Even if I forcibly upgrade and tear apart the two universes, or even find a way to save his relatives and friends, there is no way to erase the terrible memories of these countless reincarnations, and he will go crazy." ”

After being with Schiller for a long time, Stark actually understands that when he first meets psychology, he will sigh that this is really a very magical discipline that can do a lot of magical things.

But just like every branch of medicine, the more you study, the more you understand that there are only a few things that can be cured, and many things that cannot be changed.

The fragility of human memory lies in the fact that mental trauma is permanent, and the scars will be deeply engraved and will completely change someone, which is not reversed by whether the current situation is better or whether the tragedy is repaired.

As the saying goes, some people spend their lives to heal their childhood, in fact, many people in this situation have a fairly rich life in adulthood, and many childhood regrets can be made up, but the reason why they are still deeply affected by this is that some tragedies have shaped their personality and character, and this is no longer a pathology, but a normal state.

Stark thinks that there is nothing that cannot be changed by teaming up with Schiller, and Spider-Man does not have to sacrifice himself, but what if he does not sacrifice? In this terrible reincarnation, he ate Aunt May and Mary Jane again and again.

Stark couldn't imagine how traumatic this would be for a person, he was just glad that the Schiller who was floating now didn't seem to be a psychiatrist, so he could resist asking him, not asking the question that was destined to get a negative answer.

What's even more desperate is that Stark has long known that memories and personality are inseparable, and once memories are deleted, personality is likely to collapse, and the mysterious subconscious mind will defeat all arrogant people who try to modify the surface consciousness at will.

If Spider-Man is given amnesia, the result will only be to make him suffer from a chaotic mental state and subconscious nightmares, and one day he will still remember and still collapse.

In this way, no matter what you do, you are on a dead end, and at this time Stark fully understands what it means to save the world - it is easy to save the world, but it is difficult to save you.
