I Heard That I'm Super Fierce

If the agents of the foundation were facing him, Lin You might think about it.But since she was a Chaos Insurgency, she didn't show any mercy.

What a joke, the machine gun fire was aimed at her as a target.If she hadn't been able to hide in time, and the housekeeper had pulled her, she would have turned into briquettes.

This is good, she asked the housekeeper to watch SCP-173 not to move, and "slapped" the photo of SCP-096, which she took with her eyes closed, on it.

——Just clap your hands and throw the century-old problem that even the Indestructible Lizard couldn't solve to the Chaos Insurgency, let them slowly enjoy the double happiness.

Listening to the voices outside, it was obvious that these armed members were unable to solve this problem even though they were so caught off guard.Otherwise, after the first few exclamations that they found that they were facing this desperate combination that would have to die, it should not have been the screams of limbs being torn apart in the interval between SCP-096's cries And the "click" sound of broken bones from time to time.

Bullet casings and empty magazines fell to the ground with a clatter. The previously lively gunshots all died down and gradually became silent.

After waiting until the last whine died down, and since all the guys who saw his face died, SCP-096 straightened the crooked paper bag on his head.But when it realized that it had been soaked wet and soft, it stood blankly clutching the paper bag for a long time, but still reluctantly took it off.

...Forget it, anyway, as much as you want.

On the side of the door, Lin You looked down and saw SCP-096 returning to the illustrated book, and knew that she could go out now.

Ibis' expression was still a little dazed.

Ever since she agreed to lend the camera, she has watched the situation run wildly in a completely unpredictable direction - SCP-173 with photos of "shy" people, which is something that no one in the Foundation would dare to do ah? !

She almost "witnessed" the whole process of how the other party ordered the housekeeper to stand the statue covered with photos outside the door in a stunned state. She was stunned for a while, and almost forgot to enter the door herself. It was Lin You who dragged it in for her. .

Speaking of it, although the former colleague did not explain the specific process clearly, he also said that Abel completely ran away after meeting the other party and SCP-682.

Captain... what exactly has he experienced?

In the past, Yuan Wei would never have imagined a day when she would sympathize with Abel, and even if she didn't believe in religion very much, she couldn't help but want to say amen.

But even so, even if she was a little shocked and doubtful about this method, she would not regret it.She has dreamed of escaping from the Foundation's control and living like an ordinary person for a long time.

Just one question.

"Wait," seeing that Lin You was about to open the door, Yuan Wei hurriedly stopped her, "Just go out like this, isn't that guy still—"

Posted all photos?

Wouldn't it be possible to see SCP-096's face if you go out directly?

She has also read several accident reports of SCP-096. Most of the agents sent to carry out recontainment missions were either killed or injured. Naturally, she knew how obsessed it would be, and would not hesitate to chase it to the ends of the earth.

"That's what it says."

Lin You said with a smile.

"But if you don't hurry up, the statue is going to run away."

The team leader of the Chaos Insurgency kicked the door in. She was able to trap SCP-173 here before because there were two doors that it couldn't open by itself. Now that there is no barrier, she can escape to go outside.

What Iris is worried about is a problem. Even Lin You himself may not know what effect it will have if he summons SCP-096 after seeing its photos without being present.She couldn't take the risk of tearing up the photos.

"Don't worry about the photo." However, Lin You had already thought of a solution, "Just find someone who has seen its face."

If it happens that he still won't die, that's another layer of insurance.

"Don't you think so?"

She teased, "A certain evil god?"

Iris: "..."

Eh?

A few meters away, a sneer sounded unexpectedly.

"Now I'm thinking of me." Nyarlathotep leaned against the wall in his usual posture again, and he lazily raised his eyelids, "This trivial matter still bothers me, but tell me, I Why do you want to do this."

"By your standards, isn't it fun?"

Lin You asked back of course.

"I've tried this twice, and you know the effect of the two of them going out together. Are you sure you won't feel sorry if you miss an opportunity to make things more interesting today?"

Naia snorted.

So-so—the next second he was persuaded, he put on airs and gave such an evaluation.

Yuan Wei covered her eyes, then involuntarily opened her fingers, and watched the other party go out as if nothing had happened through the gap.

Her uniqueness is only the awakening of the ability to manipulate photos. Before she was taken into custody by the foundation, she was just a little girl who grew up in an ordinary family. Although because of this containment experience, she can feel that the other party is far from human even if she is a human being. , but still can't imagine what it is.

The blinking problem that plagues ordinary humans is certainly not a problem for Outer Gods.

He can keep it up as long as he wants.Naia tore off the photos pasted on the statue with a swipe, and finally twisted the stack in her hand.Somehow, a ray of flame ignited on the corner of the photo paper, and he did not avoid it at all, allowing the flame to burn his fingers and palm.

It's also strange, the flame seemed to have its own consciousness, crawling docilely across his palm, and only those stacked photos were swallowed up.

In the end, there was only a handful of ashes left, and with a flick of Naia, the powder ash coefficient dropped, and even this trace was not left.

"I thought you would be afraid of fire," Lin You said thoughtfully, "After all, you and Cthugya—"

Naia: "..."

Hearing this name, his face immediately darkened.

"Don't mention that guy to me—it's just a trick, it's got nothing to do with it."

"Since you know such a thing," he said wryly, "thank you for not summoning it?"

Braking on purpose and using that SCP-096 to get him hooked is pretty polite compared to that guy.

Cthugha, also known as "Deflagration", is like a living, ever-changing flame, and it can indeed burn everything.Although he was also the Great Old One, he and Nyarlathotep are sworn enemies.It responds to the demands of those threatened by Nyarlathotep, and if successfully summoned, it can be the ultimate trump card against him.

"Hey."

Lin You didn't understand the sarcasm in his words, and replied with a smile: "You're welcome."

Naia: "..."

It was rare to have such an urge to almost choke on anger, he could only remind in his heart that this human being was chosen by him to be a partner—he chose by himself.

Furthermore, since he joined, the desperation and fear he has appreciated has really pleased him, so thinking about it makes him a lot more tolerant.

"For the sake of letting me watch a good show," he just sneered, "It's not like I can't help you a little more."

Lin You: "Huh?"

She always felt that the hidden meaning of this sentence was to do things well in the future, so as not to disappoint him.

Nyarlathotep's gaze never left the statue, and he simply put his arm on SCP-173's shoulder at this moment.

He glanced at it, "So it's not solid."

"I remember it's hollow." Lin You said, "However, no one can say for sure what's inside. It may be completely harmless, or it may be a world-killing thing...Of course, it's just a rumor."

Nyarlathotep responded with great interest.

"Oh, it really doesn't matter."

He said: "Who won't destroy the world?"

"..."

Yes, this is really not a problem in his opinion.

As soon as these words came out, Lin You was stunned, but Yuan Wei, who didn't know it, was very frightened. She looked at Lin You blankly, then at Naia, and at Naia, then at Lin You. I forgot what I wanted to say.

Nyarlathotep, one of the majestic three pillars of the original god, would not care what a little human girl thinks of him, he just puts on the statue, glances from top to bottom, his whole body is so straight down.

"I think they work well together."

He returned to his usual cheerful smile, but his tone was completely menacing, "I don't care about the consequences, it will be broken if it should be broken. Maybe before the things inside have time to come out, I will break it." already--"

The next second, SCP-173 disappeared out of thin air.

There was a sudden void under the arm, but fortunately, the evil god had been prepared for a long time, and he didn't really lean on it with all his strength. At this time, he withdrew his hand leisurely, and looked at the card stuffed into Lin You's hand mockingly.

[Name: Statue of SCP-173 (original work)]

[Card number: 002]

【Level: SR】

[Remarks: In the beginning, it was a document that wrote it that started the creation of the "SCP Foundation", so it was called "the original work".An enigmatic statue that will snap your neck in a fit of rage if you don't look at it.Although animate and highly hostile, co-occurrences with SCP-096 do not appear to be very repulsive at present. PS. Stop putting pictures on it, the sticky glue is really uncomfortable. 】

—— Counseling quickly enough, he didn't even finish his sentence.

Naia raised her eyebrows, "Go back."

He came and went abruptly, and even though Yuan Wei had been mentally prepared for seeing how SCP-096 appeared once, she couldn't help being taken aback at this moment.

But after recovering from the daze, remembering Lin You's plan, she swallowed, "Let's now..."

Lin You said "hmm".

"Yes, go to your colleagues," she said, "but there is something to attend to."

She turned to the butler.

"I've troubled you all this way. It's not convenient for you to follow me later, see you next time?"

The Foundation's agents are no better than players. If the housekeeper has been following them, there is a high probability that they will notice something strange.And her purpose was to make them trust her, and it would not be worth the loss if they aroused suspicion in advance.

Hearing her words, Mr. Deeds only smiled slightly.

"It's an honor," he said.

He bowed, turned and walked out, bypassing the members of the Chaos Insurgency whose neck had been broken on the ground, and out of Lin You's field of vision.

The latter knew that he would disappear in place after this, so he stood inside the door and looked at Yuan Wei again.

"Okay," she said, "there's one last thing left—do you still keep the photo you used to contact me?"

"When, of course!"

Yuan Wei hastily replied, she frantically rummaged through the large and small pockets of her leather jacket and trousers, and finally took out the photo before she let out a sigh of relief.She blinked, held up the photo and looked at Lin You, "This is the one."

Lin You looked at the photo.

She is not Iris, of course she can't see how bizarre it is.In her opinion, this is an ordinary photo, with no human figure on it, and the corridor scene alone is not well exposed because of the photographer's haste.As she had guessed, the angle in the photo was taken from the side of the corridor, and the office where she and Jian Mingjia were hiding was photographed through the window.

"Can you see they're still there?" she asked.

Iris stared at the photo for a few seconds, then nodded affirmatively, "It's still there."

"Okay," Lin You said, "pass a message for me."

The best way is for her to meet Jian Mingjia face to face again, but time has not allowed her to do so.Iris has a special identity, and secretly ran away with her teammates behind her back. In essence, she is defecting. If it is delayed for a long time, even she herself will become one of the SCPs to be re-contained. Lin You doesn't want this to happen.

"Still follow your previous trick. Tell her to take Xiao Geng out of here as soon as possible no matter what method is used. If it is convenient, use the north entrance where the Chaos Insurgency broke in. We just cleared here, and there should be relatively few people. Be safe."

It's another thing to send yourself into the hands of the foundation like Lin You. The normal clearance method of this dungeon probably only needs to escape from this building.

"and also--"

"If you come across an office door that's locked with a combination or marked 'Dr. Maynard' and the code is 2265, it never hurts to go in and have a look."

Yuan Wei stared at the photo, she pursed her lips and stretched out her hand.

Her right hand protruded into the thin piece of paper, and from the side it looked as if half of her arm had disappeared out of thin air.And after more than a minute, Yuan Wei paused, and tilted her head to look at Lin You in confusion.

"This sister said, she guessed what you want to do."

Lin You: "..."

isn't it? !

She was more or less guilty and coughed, "What else did she say?"

"She said she wouldn't stop you."

Iris frowned, recalling and repeating: "...But it's best to listen to her part of the plan and think about it together."

Everything is arranged properly.

Even though she had already made mental preparations, Yuan Wei still seemed a little trembling and embarrassed.She tried to calm down her emotions with one deep breath after another, but at best it only made her face look calmer, and only she knew how fast her heart was beating.

Especially the team members who knew they were approaching the "Pandora's Box" - she had confirmed the location with photos in advance - the mood became more and more tense.

"Iris?!"

Even though it was the expected sound, she was still shocked.Someone patted on the shoulder reassuringly, realizing that she only needs to go back temporarily this time, Yuan Wei relieved a lot, and turned to Andrian who had rushed over.

The latter turned around and shouted to the other members: "SC—"

When the number was called, his voice paused heavily, but he couldn't help but change his words in the end, "Iris is here!"

Obviously, if Iris hadn't come back on her own initiative, the Omega-7 team would have treated her as SCP-105 that had failed containment—this is the rule, and if they don't follow the rules, they will be the ones who will be executed.

When they saw Lin You beside Yuanxi, based on the descriptions they had heard, both Adrian and Beatrix who approached together recognized her at a glance, and their faces showed vigilance at the same time.They clenched the guns in their hands, but the other party waved to them in a friendly manner. Beatrix frowned and pulled Iris past.

"What's the matter?" Beatrix asked.

Yuanwei secretly glanced at Lin You.

"She called me over."

She's not very good at lying, and now, according to the string of words, she dared to say it without revealing any flaws, "She said that I can only go there alone, but I know Baze and you guys definitely disagree, so— —”

Beatrix: "Are you going?"

Ibis nodded with an imperceptible tremor.

"Then I talked to her, and she said she would accept our containment," she said. "We had a little trouble hiding from the Chaos Insurgency on the road, and now we've found you."

Beatrix was still a little skeptical, but she accepted the idea anyway.At the moment when Abel had gone berserk, Yuanwei's disappearance was not a trivial matter. Four or five agents had gathered here—almost half the team, and one of them pressed the voice button.

"An unregistered anomaly has been found."

"The other party expressed their willingness to accept containment," the agent said.

Under the instructions, he took out the communication device, and the screen showed that he had received a basic form, and he filled it in one by one.

Number tentative.

Described as a dark-haired, dark-eyed Asian female in her early twenties...

When he saw the "Object Level" column, he paused.

The Foundation tends to classify containment items, and the three most common classes are "Safe", "Euclid" and "Keter".If understood simply, it is equivalent to safe, dangerous and extremely dangerous.But to be precise, this does not refer to the degree of danger, but the difficulty of containing it. These three levels represent increasing difficulty.

The more you cooperate, the less difficult it will be.

At this time, the agent looked at Lin You, who was completely allowed to search and looked harmless from the inside out, and couldn't help but hesitate a little.

The other party also had a gentle and friendly smile, showing no hostility or any intention of escaping.

Coupled with Iris' testimony...

After a long silence, he finally filled in the lowest grade of "Safe (Safe)" in that column.
