"Good morning, everyone." Shiller walked into the lab, holding a medical record, and then looked at Stark and said, "I heard that a certain big boy, trying to demonstrate his masculinity, wants to have neural interface surgery and he doesn't want any anesthetic."
"Don't talk too much, or my heart rate won't be suitable for surgery." Stark takes a deep breath, "In a while, I'll show you what real masculinity is."
After ten minutes, the screams pierced through the quiet New York sky.
"Ah!!!!!!!!!! Aahhh!!!!!"
"Ding-Ding——Ding-Ding——Ding——"
"There's an alarm." Shiller turned his head to look at the machine next to him, he recorded while saying: "Brain activity is also abnormal, stop quickly!"
Strange immediately stopped what he was doing, took off his gloves, took out a gemstone, a flash of light, and the time reversed back to before the surgery began.
Stark, who was strapped to the operating table was panting, his forehead was sweating, although the wound and blood had disappeared, his memory had not been reset. Just now, that terrible pain had consumed him instantly.
With his upper body naked, Stark propped himself up with one arm and sat up from the operating table.
Strange was putting away the surgical instruments, he looked at Stark's back, which had a small window just a moment ago, the wound was not deep, and the blood did not flow much, but the process of neural connection could cause severe pain.
"I say, brother, how do you endure this kind of pain???" Stark looked at Otto and said: "Even with anesthetics, this is simply not something a human can bear."
Otto shook his head and said: "Indeed, during the surgery, I woke up from the pain seven or eight times, but as it was intermittent, it wasn't this severe. If you don't use any anesthetic at all, then I can only wish you good luck."
However, Shiller turned his head to Strange and asked,"Would it work if Professor X forced his brain to stop working?"
Strange shook his head and said, "It's difficult to say, but it might have certain effects on his brain. His thinking is too active, his brain activity is much stronger than normal people, if forcefully suppressed…"
Strange didn't finish his sentence, but the others present all understood his conclusion. Shiller pondered and said, "How about borrowing a symbiont? Directly blocking the feeling of pain."
The others were silent, it seems they were contemplating, Strange stroked his chin and said, "It should work, these symbiotic creatures are really magical, they can control every cell of the human body..."
"But, the symbionts went back to their home planets a while ago…Wait, it seems one of them didn't leave?"
Shiller and Strange looked at each other, and Stark who was laying on the operating table suddenly had a bad premonition.
" Sorry slob, we meet again!"
When the low husky voice of Venom echoed in Stark's mind, he hit the table hard and said, "You damned pile of mud, get out of my head!!!"
"Oh, oh, oh, let me see, which little darling can't stand the pain and comes to his Venom Father? Later, I will record every cell transformation and write it down in my genetic data, telling the entire universe that Tony Stark is a crybaby afraid of pain! Hahahahahaha!!!"
"Shut up, lump of mud, do you want me to tell the whole universe that you are an idiot? Wait a moment, I will open the portal, go to Klinter Star and tell your kind that you needed two hours to learn linear functions!"
While Stark was sitting there daydreaming, Strange who was preparing the experimental tools nudged Shiller who was by his side with his shoulders and said, "I guess, they've started to argue again."
"That's good, Tony should change his brain." Shiller looked back at Stark and said, "Don't you think he's been a little obsessed lately?"
Strange also looked back at Stark and whispered, "I found that he is often insecure. When things don't go well, he becomes very irritable, but when things go smoothly, he starts thinking that there will soon be a downfall."
"Like recently, the Solar System construction plan has been going very well, but he insists on pushing himself, not wasting a single minute, not daring to allow himself to rest."
Strange said hopelessly, "When I asked him why he did this, he said that people won't be united forever. As long as things are going well for now, he must seize the opportunity."
Shiller paused his movements, sighed and said, "In his view, the good times are always short-lived, long-term depression, violence, stagnation are the norm."
"I think it has a lot to do with his father," Strange said in a low voice, "Isn't this describing a drunk? When they are sober, it's always a minority, most of the time they are like a pile of mud... I know that feeling too well."
"Yes, people who grow up under such conditions often have the feeling that they must complete everything during the peaceful days because at any time, a drunk may barge into their room, abusing and beating them, that's the source of their insecurity."
