American Comics: Opening Guidance Batman

Chapter 59: Frozen man for the first time

The new principal, Seldon, is actually quite capable and experienced, and has a wide network of contacts. The only problem is that his luck is really bad.

No, perhaps it should be said that it is very bad.

His friends helped him nominate a total of six professors, and one of them just happened to meet one of the villains of Gotham in the future, Victor Freese.

And after Seldon checked their files, he planned to hire three of them, including Victor Frith, the freezer.

After the invitation letter was sent, there was only one professor who accepted the offer of Gotham University, and it happened to be Victor Frith, the freezer.

Gotham University is really in trouble. It has just captured a few demons, and captured a few more demons. Jonathan the scarecrow has just left, and Victor, the frozen man, has just left.

And Victor seemed to need this errand very much. Before Schiller could communicate with Bruce to stop Seldon's hiring, the invitation letter had just been sent out at noon the day before, and Victor had already arrived at Gotham University the next afternoon. , it's as fast as if he's going to run out of food if he doesn't do the job.

Fortunately, just like the scarecrow, the current Victor is just an ordinary scholar and professor.

In fact, Schiller knew that even the later Frozen Man was considered the milder of Gotham villains. He usually likes to freeze Batman, and then chat with him about philosophy and art. Most of his paranoia and madness are It comes from love for his wife, not necessarily against Batman or Gotham.

The Victor Schiller saw was very similar to himself. Both of them were very typical scholars. Victor was tall and straight, wearing a pair of glasses, and the collar and cuffs of his suit were meticulously taken care of, although his expression A little haggard, but still looks like a full-fledged professor.

Each professor has his own independent office, but there are also public offices where everyone sits together for activities and chats. After Jonathan left, his public office space was vacant. This time Victor came, and he happened to be sitting there. The original Jonathan's position was next to Schiller.

During the first chat with Victor, Schiller found that Victor's eyes had been staring at the ring on Schiller's ring finger.

After a while, he finally brought the topic to the family, and then asked, "You seem to be married. Is your wife also in Gotham now?"

In European and American countries, it is not polite to talk about each other's marital status at the first meeting. Some people may feel that this offends their privacy.

It can be seen that Victor's mental state is not very good now. He seems to be very anxious and wants to seek approval.

When Schiller heard this question, he was stunned for a moment. He didn't know how to answer. He couldn't tell the other party that he had a symbiote that he watched a lot of TV series, right?

Schiller's silence was understood by Victor as another meaning.

Humans are like this. When they feel insecure and anxious, they unconsciously seek out their peers and seek comfort from their own experiences.

Victor thought of Schiller's amazing resume, and he thought that perhaps among those thrilling detective stories, there might be a more poignant love story than him.

With this sense of identity of "the same people who fall from the end of the world", Victor and Schiller quickly became acquainted with each other.

In the subsequent exchanges, Schiller found that he and Victor do have a lot in common. Victor likes to talk about ancient philosophy, modern art and religious art. Schiller also likes theology and philosophy. The two have a lot in common, and they can even chat for an entire afternoon when there is no class.

Schiller didn't expect that the first close friend he found after crossing over was the villain Frozen.

But I have to say that this Mr. Freeze, who has not yet become a villain, is actually very charming. He is always gentle, with strong empathy, gentle and methodical words, and has very unique opinions when talking about some issues. , chatting with him reminded Schiller of his previous life and the debate with experts in the same field, which can always collide with countless sparks of thinking.

This moderate villain has a pretty good look and feel, which is also recognized by everyone in the entire office.

With the in-depth communication with Victor, Schiller also knew his current situation. Victor has mothballed his wife using cryogenic technology, but it costs a lot of money and requires a demanding site.

The institute that originally funded his research was unwilling to provide a venue for Victor because of insufficient funds, so Victor came to Gotham University in a hurry, except because the salary given here is not bad, it is for the Wien family. He paid for a cryogenic laboratory here, where he could ensure that his wife was kept in a frozen state and her condition would not worsen.

If combined with the later stories of Freezing Man, it may make his behavior seem a little perverted, but in fact, most of the colleagues in the office can understand Victor. The theory that people who cure diseases are frozen and waited until the day when medical technology develops.

And Victor is just one of the forerunners.

Schiller believes that such a Victor Frith, even if he did not suffer from an accidental experiment and became the later frozen man, is a fairly reliable ally.

Compared with the little bat that has not yet grown up, the frozen man with the world's cutting-edge low-temperature technology and full of knowledge seems to be more reliable.

If you want to solve the trouble of freezing people forever, you still have to solve the degenerative disease on his wife first.

Schiller followed Victor to visit the cryogenic cell where his wife was sealed. Mrs. Frith was not very beautiful, just an ordinary white woman, but Victor always looked at her with love in her eyes.

Schiller asked the symbiote in his head, "Is there a way?"

The symbiote said, "The nerves are atrophied, which is very troublesome."

Victor looked at the cryogenic chamber and said: "My wife's neurodegenerative disease is almost incurable, her nerve cells are dying so fast, I only had time to seal her up, there is no way to reverse it, even if it can be barely controlled Live cell death, immune inflammation also damage her brain..."

Victor squatted down, anyone could hear the desperation in his tone, maybe he himself knew that he was just deceiving himself by freezing his wife and waiting for a solution that might never come.

Schiller frowned and thought, he thought, although Victor is a villain who deserves to be named Gotham, he is indeed the world's top cryogenic scientist, but professional things have to be done by professional people, for example, a certain A more advanced neurosurgeon.

The next day, Schiller returned to Marvel's New York.

When Strange met Schiller at his home, he threw the coat he just took off on the porch next to him, and said, "Oh my God, you just showed up in my home so struttingly!"

"I haven't settled with you yet. You sold my information to an institution."

"That's what they asked me, and I can't help it."

In the process of staring at Schiller, Strange couldn't do anything, he said: "Okay, but you can't expect me to be like a well-trained agent, doing nothing. Said, and it was indeed you who threatened me first."

"Don't mention this, I have a way to make a fortune now, would you like to hear it?"

Strange asked suspiciously: "The way to make a fortune? If there is such a way, would you come to me? I heard that you gave that Stark an hourly consultation fee of $1 million, and he actually paid him back. agreed!"

"When I heard the news, I couldn't wait to go back to university to study psychology!"

"Now, there is a lady who has a very serious neurodegenerative disease, and her husband may have a patented low-temperature technology that is unique in the world. You know, the kind of technology that can be eaten for a lifetime by the patent fee alone."

"If you can cure this lady's disease, then we can share this patent together."

Strange pursed his lips and sighed, "I repeat, I am a doctor, not God."

"Do you think you can't cure this disease?"

"But first of all, shouldn't you let me see the patient first, not your second-order dealer?"

"For some reason, you may not be able to see her, but I have all her pathological information here."

Saying that, Schiller conjured a large pile of paper out of thin air. Strange took it and glanced at it briefly, then shook his head and said, "Impossible, it can't be saved, give it up."

As soon as Schiller was about to speak, Strange said, "This is no longer a neuroscience thing. If you want to restore her to full health, it is almost as difficult as taking a piece of bacon that has been roasted and turning it into a pig. ."

Then he looked Schiller up and down, and finally set his eyes on the ring on his ring finger, Strange said: "...Well, my words were a bit absolute just now, or you can go and find someone else, Although I don't think there is a better neurosurgeon in the world than me."

"What if you work with Stark?"

Strange just wanted to deny it, but he thought about it and said: "That Stark may have some research in mechanics, but if his technology is to be applied to neurosurgery, it still needs a lot of research and modification, if you can Convince him to put so much effort into researching this technology, then I can try it, but you'd better prepare a consultation fee that will satisfy me."

Strange's voice has not yet finished~www.NovelMTL.com~ Schiller has disappeared, remembering the ring he saw on Schiller's hand just now, and Schiller's attitude, Strange obviously misunderstood something. , he sighed and said to himself: "Ha, love... it's stupid enough."

Schiller, who suddenly appeared behind Stark, startled him, and then he shouted: "I know you have this kind of magic! But it's not like you can walk 30 stories without elevators. Reason! Aren't you afraid of being stuck in the wall?"

Schiller said, "What the **** are you talking about? How could teleportation get stuck in the wall? That's too stupid."

"Hopefully I won't get a call from a maintenance worker one day to tell me there's a human-shaped hole in a wall in the Stark Building."

"Okay, I'm here to find you on business."

Schiller took out the pile of documents again.

Ten minutes later, Stark said: "Actually, you really found the right person. I still have some research on neurology."

He took the pen around the table and said as he walked, "You know, last time I got a lot of biomechanical information from Obadiah's database, and there are some technologies related to the adaptation of the nervous system to mechanical control."

"Although these technologies are very dangerous, it cannot be denied that, if successful, it will allow the human body to control the mecha with an unprecedented level of sophistication."

"If the machine can receive commands directly from the nerve center, it will save the time required for all secondary operations, and all the armors will be able to be truly arm-like."

"So you can do it?"

"No, not yet. Obadiah's research on this technology is also stuck in a bottleneck period. There is a key technical threshold that needs to be broken through. Now we have no ideas."
