Chapter 2640 Mayfly World (Forty)
As soon as Strange came back, Schiller and Pamela proposed this idea to him. Like Pamela, Strange's first reaction was, how could anyone agree to such an outrageous thing?
But Schiller explained to him that, first of all, from Yinglong's mouth, it could be learned that Chiyou was dead, and what was left now was just his corpse, and there was no way he could come back to life.
The few times he appeared before were because his corpse was controlled by someone, not because he was really resurrected. The person who controlled him did not really want Chiyou to fight Huangdi to the death again, but just wanted to resurrect him.
In the impression of most Chinese people, mythological stories are like this: Huangdi won, Chiyou lost, Chiyou was killed, and when people thought he was dead, he was really dead.
But if his body can be made to appear in front of the public and people can mistakenly believe that he is still alive, then there is a real chance that he will come back to life. This is what the mastermind behind the scenes is doing.
Although Chi You also left his descendants on the land of China, it is hard to say what he would do if he were to come back to life now. However, according to Yinglong, he would most likely fight to the death with Huang Di.
Of course the SHIELD would never let him do that. They had put in so much effort to silence all those who knew about the war and prevented the mastermind from succeeding in his plot to resurrect Chi You. After all, if he fought with Huangdi again, wouldn't ordinary people be the ones who would suffer?
But this does not mean that the matter is over. Chi You's body has not decayed, and it will be troublesome no matter where it is placed. As long as it is not completely destroyed, there is a risk of it jumping out and jumping around. This has always been a headache for the Shenmao Bureau.
But in Schiller's opinion, the risk cannot be reduced. If there is any hope, this problem could not have been unresolved in the period of Ancient One. The previous Supreme Sorcerer beat anyone without mercy, not to mention a corpse. Chi You is still lying there, which means that Ancient One has no way out.
Since this risk is bound to exist, the risk is the same no matter where you put it. It is not that you will be safer by burying it and covering it with more layers of covers.
There is a theory in economics that since you are bound to take a certain risk, you must pursue a reward that is equal to the risk. Risk is unavoidable, but the size of the reward can be controlled artificially.
On another level, the more you gain while taking risks, the more power you have to arm yourself, and the greater the possibility of overcoming risks, which is equivalent to smaller risks.
It is a foregone conclusion that Chi You's body will be difficult to completely destroy, so it is better to use it to add bargaining chips to one's side, rather than exhausting the guarding force in vain and weakening oneself to help people with ulterior motives.
Schiller understood that the SHIELD must be very aware of this. The defense force they built deep in the Himalayas must have taken a lot of effort and consumed countless resources. However, as long as the body was left there, it would be a risk for another day.
These defensive measures cannot provide a qualitative change in reducing the risk level, and many resources are wasted for no reason. Compared with making some real and effective changes, they are more like seeking peace of mind.
This was indeed true in the past, as nothing can compare to stability. However, with the advent of the age of interstellar exploration, everyone is trying desperately to increase their bargaining chips. As the magic administration department of one of the only two major countries in the world, the S.H.I.E. must be facing greater pressure than imagined.
In this situation, every resource must be counted, and every bit saved must be saved. Wherever there is room for increasing revenue and reducing expenditure, it must be done to the utmost, and all efforts must be concentrated on accomplishing major tasks.
There are simply too many demons sealed in various places in the vast land of China for tens of millions of years. In the past, the manpower and material resources spent on maintaining the stability of the seals were sky-high. In the past, it was nothing to spend some resources to maintain the stability of the seals everywhere, but now it seems that this is completely a drag, and if it continues like this, it will lead to chronic death.
Schiller saw that the SHIELD was determined to change this situation. Even if Kamar-Taj did not propose it, Zheng Xian would take action sooner or later, probably sooner or later.
But the fact that this matter was proposed by Kamar-Taj can be said to have given Zheng Xian a huge way out.
First, Kamar-Taj was not for itself, but mainly for the three villages under its jurisdiction to get rid of poverty and become rich. The mages don't care what is buried under their feet. They dare to beat up even the demons, so why would they care about a corpse? Isn't it for ordinary people?
Second, Kamar-Taj is now the official magic management organization on Earth. It has been working diligently for many years and has not made any major mistakes in the past. Ancient One also has a good reputation in the circle of Eastern gods, so Kamar-Taj's words are still relatively useful.
Now that they have proposed such a plan and expressed their concerns about the safety of magic in this land, Zheng Xian can then take advantage of the situation and make changes. If he encounters any resistance, Zheng Xian can also say that it was not his intention to make the changes, but that someone above was watching and he had to make the changes. Does he have to confront Kamar-Taj?
Finally, if you say there are other methods, many people may still think that the risks are too high and not worth it. But if you say that this thing can be used to farm and grow magical medicinal herbs that can nourish yin and yang and prolong life, then I'm sorry, I'm a descendant of Jiuli and I'll plant it first.
To put it bluntly, it is not difficult to move the corpses of these monsters and demons. The difficult part is that after moving them, you must provide enough benefits to feed everyone, and let ordinary people benefit from it to create a win-win situation.
After Schiller finished this long list of analysis, Pamela and Strange were completely confused. These Westerners simply did not have this kind of thinking in their minds. They couldn't understand why, since the ending was good for everyone, it couldn't be simpler, but had to go around in such a big circle and add so many names and titles.
Schiller didn't care whether Strange understood or not, he just let Strange talk.
He told Strange that Zheng Xian would not only agree, but would also hint to you to find someone to try it in private, and he would also make some arrangements. If it succeeded, it would be good for everyone, but if it failed, he would promise not to tell anyone.
Seeing that Schiller was so confident, Strange had to give it a try. He made an appointment with Zheng Xian to come to Kamar-Taj for tea. About two or three hours later, Strange left the room with a confused look on his face.
The facts were exactly as Schiller said, not even a word was wrong, but he was confused by Zheng Xian's official language. If Xu Shangqi hadn't explained beside him, Strange felt that they had just had a boring chat this time.
Since others have said so, Kamar-Taj cannot be too confident. Just give it a try. If it succeeds, it will be of great benefit to Kamar-Taj.
Pamela was actually already prepared. Regardless of whether she had an invisibility cloak or not, the seal of the target was already deep in the mountains and forests. She knew more about forests and plants than anyone else in the world. Even without relying on superpowers, it would be easy for her to get there.
However, to be on the safe side, Strange still let Loki go with him. After all, the invisibility cloak can only make you invisible, not fight. In case the thing in the seal wakes up, he must have a helper to protect Pamela.
The two of them soon arrived at the ravine of the target location. Once here, there was a magic check, so Loki could not teleport with Pamela. The two of them walked in one step deep and one step shallow.
"You and Talia didn't make it?" Pamela was idle anyway, so she started chatting. She said, "Talia said she was very satisfied with you. How come you haven't had a baby in such a long time?"
Loki rubbed his face and said, "We both forgot to consider one thing before."
"what?"
"Can creatures from two different universes really reproduce?"
"Why not... um..." Pamela was silent. She said, "Theoretically, it should be possible. Why don't you think about whether frost giants and humans can reproduce?"
"Frost Giants can reproduce with other species." Loki said with certainty, "I suspect my mother may not be a pure-blooded Frost Giant, otherwise I would not be born weak... But it's hard to say with humans, I don't think any Frost Giant has tried it."
"What about your brother?" Pamela obviously learned a lot about Asgard from Talia. She asked, "Can your brother have children with humans?"
"It should be possible. Thors in other universes have married human women, and they seem to have children."
"Since we are both from the Nine Realms, there's no reason why he can do it but you can't. Maybe the problem lies in the universe." Pamela touched her chin and said, "Has there been such a case before?"
"There are cases of marriages between the universes of our two worlds, but not between the two worlds. I suspect that this is the problem." Loki also thought about it and said, "In fact, I also suspected that it was Talia's problem."
"What's up with her?"
"It's not her, it's her father. Her father wants a good successor and his target is Batman. I doubt Talia will be able to be with anyone other than Batman."
"How can it be so mysterious?" Pamela didn't believe it at all. She said, "How can Talia's father control who his daughter has a child with?"
"It's hard to say. People over there are all superstitious." Loki shook his head and said, "But Sif may be about to give birth. Their soul synchronization and power infusion are basically completed. I heard that Pepper is also pregnant. I have to take care of Helen during this period, otherwise she will feel very sad."
Pamela thought of the overly lively little girl. She shook her head and said, "I think you're overthinking it. She would rather these people leave her alone."
"That's not the case at all," Loki said. "Although she appears to be carefree, I understand how bad it feels to be ignored. If this comes from the birth of a new life, then their relationship will eventually become a tragedy."
"Doctor!!" In Kamar-Taj Schiller's room, Helen stuffed her mouth with pastries and howled at the top of her lungs, "I'm so fed up!!!"
Schiller poured her a cup of tea and asked her to eat slowly, Helen said as she stuffed the pastries into her mouth.
"They want to show that they will never ignore me. Now they stick to me every day and won't let me go out. I still want to go to Centauri to attend the party! Doctor! Please talk to them for me! Please, good doctor!"
