When Schiller arrived at Stark's laboratory, there was nothing left but ruins. Looking at the scene, which resembled some post-apocalyptic jungle, Schiller froze completely.
He stood in the doorway for a full thirty seconds without figuring out what had happened. What villain was still capable of directly breaking into the most important laboratory in Stark Tower???
This was not merely a laboratory. Stark's database now held the most cutting-edge scientific achievements of human civilization. Every faction had gone all out to protect this place. Compared to the Temple of Eternity, its security level was only about a hundred Green Lantern Headquarters short.
Schiller shook his head hard, then asked Jarvis, "Jarvis, can you perform an alcohol level test? The kind used for drunk driving..."
"Sir, according to my assessment, the alcohol level in your body is insufficient to cause hallucinations. The damaged laboratory you are seeing is not a hallucination either. That is why I called you here."
Schiller frowned and walked into the laboratory. Slightly dazed, he said, "What happened? Everything was fine yesterday. Start from the beginning..."
To Schiller's great shock, he heard Jarvis let out a deep sigh. Then, in an extremely complicated tone that absolutely should not have come from a robot, he said:
"This began last night, when Mr. Strange suddenly burst into the laboratory in Stark Tower."
"Doctor Connors was conducting an experiment when Mr. Strange rushed into his lab. Doctor Connors..."
Before Jarvis could continue, Schiller shouted, "Stop! Just state the events. You don't need so many honorifics."
Jarvis emitted two beeps to indicate that he understood, then said, "Strange burst into the laboratory where Connors was working and asked Connors for a lizard serum cure."
"From their conversation, it could be determined that Strange's father's condition had suddenly worsened the night before.
