"So, this is another one of your trades with Thanos, right?"
Strange gave a laugh, wearing an expression of understanding. It was clear he was very familiar with this old friend of his who was always playing dirty tricks on. Holding his wine glass, he turned to Loki, "You intentionally sent an invitation without any explanation. When other civilizations are in high uncertainty and tend to decline, you provoked Thanos to leap out and announce a contrary view."
"At this point, there would surely be many nitwits within the Three Great Empires jumping out against Thanos, thinking he is taking too much risk and underestimating Asgard."
"Then, Thanos, after conducting a series of analyses on the situation and some speculations on your and Thor's psychology, would refutes the objections, declaring that even if it's a trap, he's willing to march forward, shedding blood on Xuanyuan for the sake of interstellar security," Schiller smoothly continued.
Strange resumed speaking, "And after the interstellar civilizations come here, they find out that it's not a trap. Then, you and Thor publicly announce various measures for Asgard's reforms, declaring that the scourge of displacement is a thing of the past, and that Asgard will officially join interstellar society for friendly interactions with all."
"All the guests from interstellar civilizations will find that Thanos' predictions are all correct, and he could even understand King Thor's mentality. He is indeed a master of understanding the human heart."
Schiller gave a knowing smile and said, "If I'm not wrong, you have arranged for Thanos to publicly stage a 'Ten Questions to the King of Asgard', allowing him and Thor to confront each other. They would fire questions and answers back and forth, explaining to all the guests about everything they are interested regarding Asgard's re-entry to Interstellar society."
"Thanos has hardly ever revealed his strength, most people would not think anyone could beat the King of Asgard. You Asgardians being more powerful has become universally acknowledged, and everyone knows that the Divine King has a bad temper, and he is autocratic. Anyone who dares to provoke him surely intends to die."
"So when Thanos steps up at this point, it's regarded as a tribute to courage. He is even seen as an interstellar hero, disregarding personal safety for interstellar security and the stability of the interstellar society."
"Without a doubt, you've prepared a set of answers for each question. While they may not satisfy everyone, the fact that you are willing to patiently explain despite being so powerful, is the best expression of responsibility."
"In this manner, Thanos establishes his positive image of being brave and intelligent, utilizing his decisive and audacious choice to turn the scourge of displacement into a member of the interstellar society, making a significant contribution to interstellar security."
"At the same time, it also slaps those in opposition, portraying them as shortsighted and foolish; it may even influence the civil officer system of the Three Great Empires, making more positions vacant and thus facilitating your further infiltration."
"Meanwhile, Asgard has found a good approach to re-entering interstellar society, seizing interests in a more civilized manner. It doesn't weaken the image of Asgard being powerful and combative, but even makes people feel, 'It's so great that you are so strong and love peace so much'."
Loki modestly bowed his head, flashing a humble smile. "It's all because of the collaboration of the many Lokis," he said, "the result of our joint efforts."
"I knew it, nothing good happens when you all gather," Strange rolled his eyes as he said, "A think tank formed by dozens of Lokis? That's unimaginable!"
"Haven't you seen them already?" Schiller replied with a smile, "There are more than just dozens of me in the High Tower."
"By the way, Nick..." Loki hesitated, upon which Schiller shook his head, saying, "He doesn't reveal his progress to anyone. I have to admit, he's highly professional in regards to intelligence operations, to the extent that even I don't know what stage he's at."
"Without a doubt, whether it's Asgard or the Human race, they all want to join the Interstellar Society. The interstellar society right now is too stable and unexciting," Strange shook his head and sighed, "Stability is good most of the time, but sometimes it also leads to class rigidity."
"The Three Great Empires are our common adversaries," Loki put forth categorically, "You humans, we Asgardians, and even the Dark Quadrant led by Thanos, we are all new entrants to interstellar civilization."
"Humans have just developed to this stage, Asgard has just stepped into this era, and Thanos has just had a whiff of enlightenment. Undoubtedly, we all plan to use orderly means to secure our desired position within interstellar society."
A flash of ambition radiated from Loki's eyes. On the interstellar stage, his ambitions were fully ignited. A brand new path lay before Asgard, none could resist the temptation.
"But when a new power wants to take the stage, the old power inevitably has to step down. The control of the Three Great Empires over the wealthy Star Zone is too tight, we don't have a lot of room to move. Given this, we must join forces, they have to step back for us to move forward."
"To be honest, the most unexpected thing in this process is your cooperation with Thanos." Schiller interlaced his fingers beneath his chin and slightly tilted his head back, saying, "In fact, I didn't initially hold much hope for Thanos. Although for some time he was more inclined to succeed by strategies, for some unknown reason, he later became obsessed with the idea of competing with brute power."
