Five minutes later, the command center ...
"Senior officer!" It was still the sa agent. He ran to his officer's side anxiously and reported,"according to the image sent by B1 ..."
"That's enough," The officer interrupted him,"I saw it ..." He stared at the big screen in front of him, his eyes fixed on a black area."He destroyed all the video and audio acquisition devices in the containnt asures of SCP-738, right?"
"Should we detonate the cone-shaped bomb? Senior officer. " The agent imdiately replied.
"What's the point?" The officer asked without turning his head,"since he knew that he had to destroy all the surveillance equipnt, it ans that he was prepared. How could he move things to the area where the cone-shaped bombs are located?"
"This ..." The agent was at a loss for words.
"This incident reminded us ... That we still need to improve the containnt of 738." The officer continued,"it's not enough to just install a cone-shaped bomb in the middle of the room. We didn't consider the situation where 'when the facility is in a major crisis, the room without the protection of the security personnel will be invaded'... Obviously, the intruder will not wear an explosive collar ..." He paused for a mont."Hmph ... Speaking of which, the behavior of this Class D today has sounded the alarm in many ways. In the future, we should add a set of 'in the event that the base is in a crisis of total loss of control' to all the SCPs, which can be used as the final ans of protection. "
"Then ... What should we do now? Senior officer. " The agent asked again.
"Aren't the people who are going to capture him already on their way ..." The officer continued,"we can only hope that ... Before they arrive, that Class D mber has not completed so kind of 'deal' that poses a threat to us."
"That shouldn't be a problem, Sir." The agent replied,"generally speaking, the trade that a grade D personnel would choose is at most 'freedom' or sothing like that."
"Ha ..." The officer laughed. He straightened his suit."Steven, what do you think the intelligence of this Class D personnel is?"
The agent's na was Steven.
"Uh ... I've already retrieved his information, Sir." As Steven spoke, he took out a form from his pocket, lowered his head, and read,"this Class D mber's code na is 00250, original na is Rudy. Austin, 25 years old this year, his criminal record has never stopped since he dropped out of high school. He was sentenced to life imprisonnt for first-degree murder last year ... After testing, his IQ is 83 and he has a tendency for slight violence. "
“83？”The officer looked back at Steven and took the form."Hmph ..." He snorted."This is wrong."
"What's wrong? Senior officer. " Steven asked.
"Do you think a person with-lower IQ than the average (even by Arican standards) would think of using spp 294 to deal with SP 173?" The officer hit the nail on the head."Before that ..." He looked at the form again."Where did he hear about the special characteristics of SCP294?"
"This ..." Steven's expression beca more and more unsightly."Could he be ..."
"That's right ..." The officer replied in a deep voice."I suspect that he's a spy planted by the chaos splitter through so ans." He stuffed the form back into Steven's hand."If that's the case, this information is aningless ..."
The more Steven thought about it, the more he felt that his officer made sense.""That's right ... Most Class D personnel might not even understand the SCPs they are operating, let alone the other SCPs. And this person ... The first ti he used SCP 294, he caused the project 'unable to generate the input content'. This shows that not only does he understand the characteristics of SCP 294 ... But he was also testing its bottom line. "
"All in all ... We have to capture or eliminate this person as soon as possible. The potential threat of him being active in the base is too great." The officer then said,"we have to control or kill him before he cos into contact with more ITER-level projects. Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable ..."
…………
At the sa ti, inside the containnt asures of scpnovel 738.
Due to the current state of the base, the security guards who were originally in charge of guarding the place had long disappeared. They had either gone to the underground ergency shelter or had already died sowhere else. In any case, brother Jue did not encounter any obstacles along the way.
The door of the containnt device was opened by the control desk of the external laboratory, so there was no need for a pass card.
After arriving at the lab, Feng bujue destroyed all the surveillance caras and audio equipnt in the room and the lab. Then he moved the three-piece set of furniture. He knew very well that when he moved the tables and chairs, he just had to be careful to avoid the cone bomb in the middle of the room.
Long story short, after so work, brother Jue finally sat down on the high-back chair that was SCP-738-2. In front of him was a table labeled SCP 738 1, and the "throne" SCP 738 3 was behind him.
"Hehe ... I didn't expect that we would et like this."
A mont later, a gentle and mysterious voice ca from behind him.
Feng bujue turned around and saw a black-haired man.
He was a man with an outstanding temperant. He could show the youthful vigor of a twenty-year-old, and he could also show the maturity and humor of a forty-year-old. However, no one could tell how old he actually looked ...
Secondly, he was also a very charming man, although objectively speaking, he could not be considered a handso man ...
"From your tone ... You know ?" Feng bujue replied without changing his expression.
"Yes, you're a famous person," the man replied with a smile."...Feng bujue."
"I see ..." Brother Jue laughed.
"Yes, that's it." The other party replied.
"I have yet to ask for your na, Sir." Feng bujue added.
"Vincent." Vincent replied indifferently.
"Oh?" Feng bujue's eyes flickered, and he imdiately sized the man up."Hehe ... It's an honor to et you ..."
These two "nice to et you" did not carry any sarcasm or hypocrisy. Brother Jue really had heard a lot about this man.
"Ha ... Woody must have said a lot of bad things about to you, right?" Vincent leaned his right elbow on the armrest of the throne and rested his chin on one hand. He looked down at brother Jue in a cool pose.
"If you really are Vincent, then you don't have to ask this question." Feng bujue used his hand to tap his temple."Can't you just go inside and find the answer yourself?"
"My dear friend ..." Vincent put on a charming smile."You have to know that, most of the ti, the 'answer' is not the most important thing." He paused for half a second and continued,"whether it's the limit of mortal wisdom or the most powerful Sage who has beco a deity ... They're all stopped at the level of 'answers'. But what was the point of that? When the forr was asked what one plus one was, he instantly got the answer 'two'. The latter already knew the question and the final answer was 'two' even before soone asked what one plus one is. "
Then, he looked at Feng bujue and paused for a mont.""Hehe ... But you and I ... Why do we have to be so stupid?"
"You're indeed not second to none. " As Feng bujue said that, he grabbed the chair and turned around to sit opposite the man."You said a bunch of nonsense. Not only did you not give the 'answer', you even denied my 'question'."
"Hahaha ..." Vincent shook his head and laughed heartily."Your reaction is very 'smart', Feng bujue ... The first thing you said to was a test. When I called you by your real na, the test ca to an end. You entered a different state ... I'll call it the 'serious state of Feng bujue'. In this state, your thinking speed and thods have clearly improved, and you have reached the 'super-dinsional vision'."
He pursed his lips and looked at brother Jue with a complicated expression.""Use your own perspective to observe yourself, and at the sa ti, use the perspective of an observer to observe yourself. At the sa ti, use a personality as vast as the universe to observe this observer ... In this way, you can solve all the problems in ti, space, subjective consciousness, and objective reality ..."
As he spoke, Feng bujue's expression changed as well. A rare, real solemness appeared on his face.
"The number of people who can reach this level in the human world can be counted on one hand ..." Vincent laughed and continued,"you are indeed the 'chosen' by Woody. Hehe ... It seems that his deal with 'that person' was not a bad one ..."
"Whose deal did he make? What deal? What does it have to do with ?" Feng bujue asked three questions in a row.
"Don't worry ..." Vincent raised his left hand and waved his fingers."So things, when the ti cos ... You'll naturally know, I promise."
"Can you answer my question with sothing other than nonsense?" Feng bujue said coldly.
"Sure." Vincent replied with two short words and then stopped talking.
"Hey, hey ..." Brother Jue was also silent for two seconds, then he said,"don't tell that this 'can' is considered a 'not-nonsense' answer?"
"That's right. " Vincent laughed."This 'that's right' counts as one too."
Bang Bang Bang
In the next second, a gunshot was heard.
"Why do you have to do this?" Vincent looked down at the bullet hole in his heart. Although the bullet went in, no blood ca out at all."I thought you and I had a similar sense of humor?"
"Yeah, I'm trying to make use of this sense of humor." As Feng bujue said that, he raised the assault rifle again and aid at Vincent's crotch.
"Alright, alright ... Let's talk properly." Vincent turned to the side and crossed his legs."Don't do these unnecessary things."
"Then I won't beat around the bush with you." Feng bujue knew that this demon before him had the sa level of intelligence as Woody. Between smart people, they could be very profound or very direct."You should be more aware and tell everything you can."
"Don't be like this~" at this mont, Vincent's tone suddenly changed. It could not be said that he was deliberately acting cute, but it was indeed a bit like that."You are now on SCP-738 ... The devil Deal, as The na suggests ... We are going to make a deal." He leaned against the back of the throne and spread his hands."If you don't pay the corresponding price, you won't get any substantial reward. I can't do anything about it."
"Is that so ..." Feng bujue said."Then, next, are we going to put on a show of 'the devil baiting the mortals'?"
"If you don't mind, I'll start now." Vincent turned his head slightly and looked at brother Jue with a sincere look.
"Sure~you do it." Feng bujue replied weakly.
"Ah~fa, power, wealth ... Everything in this world ... Is with ..." Vincent recited in an impassioned manner, as if he was reciting a poem,"mortal~what do you want? say it!"
"Is this how you lure others into making a deal?" Feng bujue narrowed his eyes and looked at Vincent with disdain."I can't help but ask ... How did you beco Satan's trusted aide?"
"Haha ..." Vincent laughed."Alright, I'll be more serious." He cleared his throat."How about I give you li Ruoyu?"
"What did you just say?" When Feng bujue heard those three words, his expression imdiately changed. It beca cold and terrifying.
"Look," Vincent replied proudly,"soone is angry ... Why is that?" It's because I touched the most unguarded part of his incomparably strong heart. " As he spoke, his face seed to be covered by an invisible shadow."This is a 'mortal', Feng bujue. Take a good look at your own weakness ... That is why a human's soul is beautiful and brilliant. On the other hand ... We 'godly' existences are just a bunch of ugly scoundrels, lackeys, opportunists, and destroyers ... I hate myself, Feng bujue, but at the sa ti, I don't care ... Can you understand this contradiction?"
"I can 't." Feng bujue replied coldly.
"Yes ..." Vincent said in a disappointed tone."I know you can't ... But I just hope you can think about it."
"So what if I did? Would it be closer to your so-called divinity transformation?" Feng bujue said.
"Ha ... Who knows?" Vincent avoided the sharp question."Let's get back to the topic ... You've seen it too. I ... Know how to seduce you or threaten you ... In this regard, I'm no different from Woody." His tone changed slightly."But don't misunderstand. You are not 'following our will'. I'm not saying this out of consideration for your self-esteem ... This is the truth, and you know it yourself. "
As he spoke, he wagged his finger. Following his movent, a piece of parchnt, a Quill, and a bottle of ink flew out of the drawer next to the throne.
"I'll ask again. What if I give you li Ruoyu?"
"What do you an by 'give'?" Feng bujue did not give an answer but asked a further question.
Since it was about the essence of the deal, Vincent had to tell the truth.""As long as you agree, she'll be yours. From her soul to her body, everything about her ..."
"You an ... To control her thoughts?" Feng bujue added.
"Of course not." Vincent said,"with the strength of her soul, I can't control or change her self-consciousness."
"Then what are you going to do?" Brother Jue said.
"It's very simple ..." Vincent said."Just unseal her."
Feng bujue's expression changed.""You can unseal Woody's seal?"
"Who told you that the 'seal' was placed by Woody?" Vincent asked in return.
At that mont, countless images flashed across Feng bujue's mind."So it's you ..."
"Yes," Vincent said,"it's ." He paused for a second and continued,"li Ruoyu is also in this 'bet', and I am the one who placed the bet." He had already dipped the quill in the ink and said to the goatskin floating in the air,"I can tell you clearly that as long as I unseal her, she will find that she has fallen in love with you. How about it? This way, you won't be blackmailed by Woody anymore. Do you want to make a deal?"
"What are the conditions?" Feng bujue asked imdiately.
"Hehe ... It's simple." Vincent said,"a few years later, when your life ends ..."
BOOM!
A loud explosion interrupted Vincent.
The door that Feng bujue had closed was destroyed by an explosion from the outside. In the dust, a group of people filed in, and one of them yelled at Feng bujue, who was still suffering from tinnitus,""Don't move!"
Frequent footsteps and the sound of guns being loaded quickly surrounded Feng bujue.
"Sigh ... What a pity." Vincent sighed."Perhaps this is God's will ..."
"Wait a minute," Feng bujue said."Even if we can not trade now, in reality ..."
"That's impossible. " Vincent knew what he was going to say, so he imdiately denied it. "Under other circumstances, I have no right to offer a deal of this level. The only exception is when you're sitting on this SCP738, and ... This is your only chance. The next ti you sit on this chair, the demon that appears may not be . "
"Hmph ..." Feng bujue snorted as well."Fine ... Perhaps this is fate."
"Don't talk! Throw your weapons on the ground, stand up, and raise your hands!" The heavily ard security guards were yelling at brother Jue. They could not see or hear Vincent, but they could hear a distorted voice echoing beside the throne.
"I'm sorry, we'll et again if fate allows it. " Vincent disappeared from the throne as he spoke. The parchnt, Quill, and ink that were floating in the air also flew back to the long drawer at lightning speed.
"Quickly do as I say! Otherwise, I'll shoot!" The security personnel gave an ultimatum.
Feng bujue had no choice but to put down his gun, raise his hands, and stand up. He knew that ... The people from the SCPs Foundation were not police officers. This group of people really did not mind "executing" their targets. Not to ntion Class D personnel, they would not even blink when killing their own people.
Three seconds later, the few brawny n sward forward and pinned Feng bujue to the ground. They then recuffed his hands.
The security guard who had just shouted picked up his communicator and reported,""Sir, the target is under control. Requesting further instructions ..." "
