American Comics: Opening Guidance Batman

Most human thinking and behavior are regular and logical. What kind of thinking and action a person will have depends on the situation he is facing now.

It is not surprising that Strange would have such a bold idea. At this time, he is a rich man who has made a name for himself, not only rich, but very rich.

In the months before he came into contact with the Ancient One, his daily routine consisted of dealing with the richest and most powerful people in the world.

And his exposure to magic was not because setbacks forced him to seek help from magic. The invitation from Gu Yi to learn magic was more similar to an invitation to an academic exchange meeting in a brand new field.

Therefore, Strange at this time has no reverence for magic. His views are similar to those of Stark. Magic is just another energy that can be used. What magic is depends on how people use it. it.

And Schiller helped him with an exclusion method, which allowed him to block Wang's so-called rhetoric of self-cultivation, uprightness and peace, and made him discover that sometimes, violence is simple and rude to solve problems, but it is very effective.

In this case, Strange inevitably starts to think, trying to find an easier and more efficient way than burying himself in Karma Taj.

This is the thinking that will inevitably arise from the scientific education of human beings. The ultimate purpose of all experiments is to improve efficiency and speed up production.

And it is not surprising that he will find Stark. Although the two were a little conflicted before, but the matter has developed to this point, it is more common interests. Obviously, in the matter of magic, they will have greater common ground. Benefit.

Stark sat behind the experimental bench, with his elbows on the table, his hands against his temples and said, "That being said, this is just an idea at the moment, and it lacks too many necessary conditions for implementation."

He waved his hand and said, "You walked in here and showed me what your magic is, and the two of us started fighting the idea of ​​powerful aliens."

"If you want me to say, man, if you're not looking for me, or Stark, who is full of genius and creativity, others will definitely shoot you out as a mental illness."

"We haven't even built a spaceship yet, and we're starting to think about borrowing money from aliens, which is kind of crazy."

Sitting on the other side of the bench, Strange folded his arms and said, "It's a bold idea, but it's not impossible, it just takes some time."

"It takes a lot of time." Stark said to Strange, "I haven't touched the threshold of magic yet, and you, you are just a magic apprentice, and you haven't even used magic formally."

"It seems that we do take this as a long-term plan, by the way, did I remind you? Magic can't be said casually, so don't tell too many people about this plan."

"Don't worry, even if it wasn't for magic, I'd prevent some people from learning about your wicked plan, and they'd be chattering about it, like some old-fashioned guy who always called himself my uncle, and the one who's going to swing in the sky. The idiots who come and go, and..."

Strange said, "I don't know who this plan is against, but..."

Then he looked up at Stark, and Stark also looked at him with the same heart, and said, "...You must know that this plan must not prevent anyone."

In the S.H.I.E.L.D. office, the light bulb above the head flickered on and off. Below the light bulb was a square table with a person sitting on each of the four sides of the table.

Nick and Schiller looked at each other and Nick said, "So, you're going to rob aliens?"

"Don't say it so ugly." Stark denied: "This is essentially borrowing, borrowing, you understand?"

"Okay..." Nick opened his mouth to say something, but there seemed to be too much to say, and he couldn't say it for a while.

After a pause, he put his hand on the table, made a calm gesture, and said, "I understand what you just said, there are some powerful creatures with magical energy in this universe. People call them aliens, and magicians call them cosmic gods."

"They can lend their power to humans in some way and let them perform magic, so the essence of magic is the power of the universe demon."

"Now you plan to borrow some strength to arm yourself, refuse to repay the debt, and then borrow more strength."

"Whether it's technically feasible or not..."

As soon as Nick said this, Stark interrupted him and said, "I know it's a little immoral, but he brought up the plan."

Stark pointed at Strange and betrayed his teammates without any psychological burden. Strange was taken aback for a moment, then glared at him.

Nick was also stunned. He said, "Immoral, what's wrong with this?"

Nick and Schiller looked at Stark and Strange suspiciously, Stark and Strange looked at each other, and then Stark said, "Well, we shouldn't overestimate the two of you. Ethical standards."

Nick was very surprised and said: "It turns out that after you put aside the technical issues, the first issue you consider is the moral issue, which really surprises me."

"But what I'm talking about is not a moral issue, but a logical one."

"First of all. According to what you said, the Cosmic Demon Gods are wise and can communicate, which proves that they are not stupid."

"Just like the human credit system, the first time you borrow a loan from a bank and refuse to repay it, then the bank will not be able to lend you any more. If the amount is huge, other banks will block you."

"I know, this kind of behavior is more like robbing a bank than taking out a loan, but the bank doesn't move. If you have enough force, you can indeed rob it again and again, but the cosmic demon is not without legs. They found that you refused to repay the debt. , I can't beat you, can I just run away?"

Nick asked Strange suspiciously: "According to what you said, your teacher just borrowed power and didn't pay it back, and then beat all the creditors to the ground, wouldn't it mean that all the cosmic demons would run away when they saw him. , then how can he borrow more power?"

"Is there a possibility?" Schiller looked at Nick and said, "If you don't want to use his strength, you won't be able to run away."

Strange gave a more reasonable explanation: "The cosmic demon is not wandering in the universe, and some stronger cosmic demons often have their own territory, such as... What's going on? What dark dimension, and Crimson dimension, this is what I heard from the king, and these are equivalent to the territory of the universe demon."

"That's a bit feasible," Nick said, rubbing his chin. "But there are still a lot of problems, especially the technical side."

Then, the three of them started talking about how to borrow money to buy guns, and then rob them with money guns.

"I said..." Schiller knocked on the table and said as if he couldn't listen anymore: "Why is your thinking always so limited? Why are you always thinking about violent robbery, can't you be a little more flexible? "

The other three looked at him, and Schiller said helplessly: "That's why you and I are always incompatible, you know? What you just said was like gathering in a farm warehouse to play poker and yell at red necks. ."

"Abandon your straight violent thinking, it's the most inefficient method, robbing a bank has long been out of fashion in this age, buying guns, pulling people, preparing cars, refueling cars, stepping on points in advance, and formulating escape routes. Wait, it's too much trouble."

"Just tell me if you have any plans." Nick glanced at Schiller and said, "I think you've been holding back for a long time."

"We can do it in a different way than robbery."

"what?"

"cheat."

Schiller spread his hands and said, "What's the highest record for a bank robber? A few million dollars? And what about a liar?"

"It depends on what kind of liar you're talking about. If it's the kind of successful liar..." Nick looked at Strange and said, "You'll have to ask him."

"Why are you looking at me?" Strange said angrily, "Compared to some people, what kind of a successful liar am I?"

He looked at Stark again, and Stark stared at me and said, "Why are you looking at me? I'm an industrialist, and I don't engage in financial fraud, and I didn't create the immortality factor..."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Schiller, and the other two looked at Schiller together, Nick said: "At the moment, you can ask yourself this question, I haven't seen a liar with a more brilliant record than you. "

"Well, I have a plan. The routine of borrowing money and not paying it back is outdated. Let's put it into a fashionable way of saying it."

"for example?"

"Like investing."

Schiller put his hands on the table and began his narration:

"Look, the trading method of the universe demon gods is one-to-one now. This trading model is really very simple and primitive in the eyes of human beings."

"They're still at the level of bartering, face-to-face transactions, but modern finance is completely out of this level."

"The first step is to get rid of the one-to-one transaction model. We can conduct one-to-many transactions, or many-to-many transactions. Simply put, it is to let the universe demons invest their power in us."

"And then? The investment has to pay off, right?"

"Cosmic Demon God..." Schiller put his hand to the right.

"... Invest in strength..." He put his hand in the middle again.

"...Give us." Finally, he put his hand to the left again, indicating that it was three stages.

"More cosmic demons, invest more power in us." Schiller made three more actions.

Under the curious gazes of the other three, he suddenly sped up his speech and quickly spit out a large paragraph:

"We use the power invested by other cosmic demons to feed back to other cosmic demons as a return on investment, and tell them that the more they invest, the more they earn."

"Set up a ladder system, formulate promotion rank, and increase the return layer by layer. If you pull one cosmic demon, you can get 3 points from the transaction amount as a reward. If you pull two cosmic demons, you can get 7 points, and so on. The more people you pull, the more you earn..."

"After expanding the basic business, start to use later investment as a return for the early investors, the investment income will increase and the investment return will increase. When the difference reaches an ideal value..."

Schiller spread his hands and said: "...The industry is facing some difficulties caused by force majeure, and we can only say goodbye to everyone temporarily. We deeply regret this."

After he finished speaking, the conference room was quiet for a minute, and Stark spoke first: "It's really a creative concept... What a shit, isn't this a Ponzi scheme???"

Nick also looked at Schiller and said: "Although I have estimated your moral bottom line as low as possible, it is still scary how flexible it is."

Schiller said suddenly and seriously: "I have always believed that what human beings need to go to the universe is not only the essence of human civilization, but also some dross."

"Trash is just a misplaced resource, the essence is the driving force to the universe, and the dross is the weapon. After all, I am afraid that no cosmic civilization has as much dross as humans."

"Of course, this is just an entry-level approach." Shiller said with a shrug: "After expanding the concept of one-to-many or many-to-many transactions, we have to change the status quo of barter, which is The things from the primitive period have no general equivalents, and they have the nerve to call themselves powerful and developed aliens?"

"With general equivalents, there is the concept of money, followed by markets, supply and demand, crowdfunding, companies, stocks, futures..."

"What human beings want to do is not a buyer who doesn't pay his debts, nor a villain who violently treats his creditors, but a banker with good reputation and image, praised by the whole universe, fair and conscientious."

"And force is only a necessary means to ensure justice. We can even promise that we will never use the Supreme Mage first."

"And then if they refuse to join, let the Supreme Mage knock on his door, right?"

"Don't say that, the Supreme Mage has knocked on his door. He even has a chance to live. This is already a big improvement. We are simply a cosmic anti-violence pioneer organization."

"When we have both force and reason, we can start to establish a trading system, formulate trading rules, and then divide classes and subdivide them. It is justifiable and logical..."

The other three looked at each other in dismay, but Schiller behaved very plainly, not like a conspirator who planned to capitalize the entire universe.

"Of course, these things are for later. Let's talk about the first plan first. There are many benefits to doing so."

"Actually, this can't be regarded as a scam, because in the later stage, those early stage investors will know the truth, but they will not stop. For their own sunk costs, they will help us keep this secret, not only keep it secret, but also take the initiative to help us. We got more people."

"This solves the problem of information occlusion on Earth. Although we don't know the cosmic demon, the cosmic demon must know the cosmic demon."

"You don't need to explain the principle of the Ponzi scheme. We all know it, but the biggest problem with this scam is that after you take the money and run away, you must have a way to hide yourself and launder the money."

"If this is an individual, it may be easier to hide and change your identity, but the earth can't escape. We can't give up the entire solar system in order to pick up the wool of the cosmic demon god?" Nick asked a question.

"If we really start to trade, it may be difficult to hide ourselves, but there is another way of thinking, that is to find a strong enough backer, promise him benefits, and let him help us avoid the trouble of running away with money. ."

Saying that, Schiller looked at Strange, and he said, "You said before that your teacher, the Supreme Mage, once mentioned to you that she is busy with the birth of a new **** recently?"

"Yes, as I told you before, it seems that a mysterious being who has been trading with him tells her that something is about to be born near the earth, and she is preparing for it."

"The mysterious existence behind her, are you interested in participating?" Schiller moved his elbow on the table, and then said: "With the prestige of the Supreme Mage as the guarantee for the opening, the existence behind her is the host. , first pull in a few little devil gods, use the power of their investment to make a play, and pull out a positive model for publicity."

"Wait until more people join the team and more strength is accumulated, then focus on attacking a big devil, spend money to open the way, promise him a high rate of return, let him enter the market first, and then taste the sweetness, so as to fool a few more. Great Demon God."

"Wait until these powerful demon gods join us, and then put forward the principle of pulling people, let them help us squeeze those smaller demon gods, and we will give them a cut."

"When I was about to run away, I returned the fists with the big fists. Almost everyone chopped up and eaten the meat together. Some of them paid protection fees for the existence behind the Supreme Master, and the other was kept by ourselves."

"Wait until the little devil in the universe grows longer, and can use this part of the power as capital to cut another wave."

"There is a question..." Stark frowned and said, "You also know that Ponzi schemes are a very important point. In the early stage, there must be physical objects to defraud investment. What are you going to use as the object of deceiving them?"

"Didn't Stephen mentioned it before? The existence behind the Supreme Mage told him that a new beast totem is being born."

"Speaking of which, what the **** is going on?" Nick asked Strange: "What is the totem of the beast? If he was born on Earth, will it have any bad influence on us?"

Strange shook his head and said: "According to my teacher, it is a symbol of cosmic power, and it is all occult stuff. Although it was born on earth, it has nothing to do with people on earth."

Nick touched his forehead and said, "I guess it must have something to do with the big bat last time, right?"

Saying that, he looked at Schiller, who gave him a positive look, and then said, "This thing can be used for some articles."

"The new totem power of the universe is rising, and it is in need of your help. Give roses and have a fragrance in your hands. During the birth of the new god, the return on investment is 200%. How about joining the totem religion and embarking on a successful demon life?"

Stark and Strange stretched out their hands and applauded, Nick commented: "In theory, it does work. The great devil with the ability to retaliate is also a vested interest, and those little devils who are surrounded by power will definitely not be able to beat these. The strong united."

"In addition to the existence behind the Supreme Mage, to ensure that no one dares to stretch their hands, the chain of exploitation and harvesting has basically completed the closed loop."

Nick sighed and said: "The plan is good, but the risk is still very high, the disadvantage of the earth is too great, the human beings here are too fragile, and the civilization is still backward. Game, once you are chased back to your hometown, there is no resistance force you can take out."

"I always think..." Stark said firmly: "If there is a day when the earth is facing extinction, and we are unable to resist, then at least we have the ability to avenge it, so..."

"Stop!" Schiller directly interrupted what Stark was going to say next. He said, "Don't say such an unlucky thing, and the earth is not powerless to resist."

"Maybe in your opinion, the strength of resistance must be force. I admit that there must be enough force to allow us to be eligible to sit at the negotiating table."

"But when we really can't develop enough force in a short period of time, it's not ashamed to use some other means to accumulate resources and buy time for us, just like what we just planned."

"Actually, I think your thinking is limited." Strange continued Schiller's words: "You think that the nuclear bombs made by humans may not be able to effectively kill those strange aliens, but we can actually Another way of thinking, for example, making one with magic."

"If we can really deceive those cosmic demon gods... I mean borrowing enough power, it can also become a weapon for us to guard the earth. The two are actually just different routes, and there is no essential difference. "

Nick sighed again, and he continued: "Everything is difficult at the beginning, but there is a plan, but where do we start?"

"We do know too little about things outside the earth." Stark also said: "I don't know those cosmic demons anyway."

Strange shrugged and said, "I can go back and discuss it with my teacher, but I always feel that such an immoral plan..."

He also sighed, and then said, "This will definitely lower my image in her eyes, and make her think I'm an ignorant liar."

"And I'm not sure if she will really go to the existence behind him to talk about it. After all, no matter what, it's a bit too immoral..."

"The most urgent task now is to find someone who has a full understanding of things outside the earth, especially the demons and various other forces in the universe, to solve our puzzles, so that we can screen out the first batch of victims... ...I mean the list of participants," Schiller offered.

"It's not that easy. The vast majority of people on earth don't believe in the existence of aliens. Even the space agency and astronauts can't understand those mysterious things." Nick said with his forehead.

"Even if you can find it, you have to make sure that he is not dangerous and can communicate with humans normally." Stark added,

"It's better to have a lower IQ, so that we can talk and not guess our purpose." Strange also added.

The three of them sighed in unison, feeling that they were daydreaming.

Just then, Nick's phone rang suddenly, and he picked it up and said, "Yeah, that's right...what's the matter?"

"What did you say?...Are you sure?"

"Really? What else?"

After Nick hung up the phone ~www.NovelMTL.com~ repeated what was reported to him on the phone: "New Mexico is suspected to have found an alien falling object, and at the same time, the state also reported that a self-proclaimed psychopath attacked the Investigate the staff at the scene."

"He claimed to be a **** from Asgard, and the fallen alien fallout was his weapon, and since he was deprived of all divine power, he couldn't take his weapon..."

Speaking of this, the four looked at each other and said like a solitaire:

"An alien?"

"A powerless alien?"

"An alien without power and without weapons..."

A powerless, unarmed, and seemingly insane alien! ! ! "
