NOVEL NEXT Chapter 4
In the monitoring room, dozens of large screens displayed the map of the entire Tianhe City.
The largest screen in the middle kept flashing red light, with a striking red dot on it, and many green dots of light around it.
Qilin stared at all this with wide eyes, looking at it in disbelief:"You are monitoring the entire Tianhe City? What do you want to do? This is illegal, do you know?"
Dukao and others on the other side also looked unhappy, especially when they saw their current coordinates on one of the screens.
When they saw the four big words"Super Seminary" specially marked on it, they were extremely shocked and angry.
The Super Seminary is a secret, even foreign countries don't know about it, but now they are being monitored without knowing it!
"What happened to Lianfeng? Why didn't Denor III notice these surveillances?"
Dukao was shocked and angry, his fists clenched again and again, staring at the big screen without blinking.
He used to think that Denor III was on Earth, and this pre-nuclear civilization was a crushing existence, which made him very proud.
With Denor III, he was the only one to monitor others, and others could not monitor him.
But everything now has shattered his pride!
Lianfeng's face was not good either, and he didn't give an answer for a long time.
Inside the base, Qilin's words made everyone present look sideways.
Dr. F looked at Chen Luo with an inquiring look, and it was almost written on his face that Qilin might be an undercover.
After Qilin finished speaking, she also realized that something was wrong. What's the difference between this and exposing her identity?
When she found that everyone was looking at her, she felt a strong despair in her heart, and her hand unconsciously wanted to touch the hairpin.
Dukao, Lianfeng and others also raised their hearts to their throats, and they didn't dare to breathe because of the tension.
Chen Luo looked at Qilin speechlessly for a few times, expressing serious doubts about her professionalism. You
're still an undercover agent like this? It's hard not to see it!
"Qilin, you must remember that our foundation does not belong to any country, and is not regulated by any country. Let Dr. F explain the rest to you when we have time. Let’s deal with the containment first."
After hearing what he said, everyone immediately turned back to do their own things.
Dr. F did not look at Qilin again, but came to the big screen with a serious expression:"President, there are two people approaching the containment!"
His words made Qilin, who had just breathed a sigh of relief and was proud of herself for not being afraid of danger and having perfectly overcome the crisis.
And Dukao and others on the other side were all nervous.
Although they did not know what a containment was, anything that kills people must not be a good thing.
Chen Luo crossed his arms and looked at the two green dots on the screen that were about to overlap with the red dots:"Sacrifice is inevitable. What we can do is to minimize it."
"Have someone check the traces of the objects in custody, and take them in immediately after understanding the rules of the objects in custody!"
Dr. F nodded seriously, turned around and walked out of the monitoring room.
Qilin looked at Chen Luo with confusion, and was a little surprised. Shouldn't he say these words? Is it really okay for a criminal to say such righteous words?
"What exactly does the SCP Foundation do? What are the containment objects? Is it dangerous?"
Qilin asked tentatively, trying to get more information from Chen Luo.
Dukao and others on the other side also pricked up their ears, hoping to get useful information.
Chen Luo raised his lips slightly and explained:"Humans have been multiplying for 25,000 years, and only the last 4,000 years are meaningful."
"So, what have we been doing for nearly 25,000 years?"
"We hid in caves, sat around small campfires, and feared things we did not understand - explanations of how the sun rose, monsters with human heads and bird bodies, and living stones!"
"So we call them"gods" and"demons" and ask for their forgiveness and pray for salvation."
"After that, their numbers decreased and our numbers increased."
"When we have fewer and fewer things to fear, we begin to see the world more rationally."
"But the unexplainable things did not disappear, as if the universe deliberately wanted to show absurdity and incredibleness"
"Nothing can protect us, we must protect ourselves, humanity can no longer live in fear!"
"While others live in the light, we must fight them in the shadows and keep them out of the public eye so that everyone else can live in a sane, normal world."
"We control, we contain, we protect, we are the SCP Foundation!"
Chen Luo's words were loud and clear, and the researchers around him were all fanatical. When
Qilin saw this scene, alarm bells rang in her heart, and she was more convinced that this was a cult organization!
She twitched her mouth:"So the so-called containment is···Something that humans cannot understand? Are we going to capture it now?"
Chen Luo nodded and shook his head:"We are not capturing, we are containing and controlling it, to protect them and to protect humans."
Qilin's cheeks twitched, she felt that her IQ was insulted.
Dukao and Lianfeng on the other side looked at each other and shook their heads. They had lived for so long, but they had never heard of any SCP in the known universe.
"No matter what this SCP is, we can't just leave it alone. Contact the government and ask them to send someone to take a look." Dukao frowned and made a decision.
