I heard that I’m super fierce - Chapter 110
Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse
If the agents of the Foundation were on the opposite side, Lin You might still think about it. But since it was the Chaos Insurgency, she didn’t show any affection.
What a joke. The machine gun was aimed at her. If she didn’t hide in time, and the butler didn’t pull her, it would really be toast.
It was good this time. She told the butler to watch SCP-173, and with a “pop,” the photos of SCP-096 that she took with her eyes closed were pasted all over its body.
—She just clapped her hands like this and threw the problem of the century that even the Indestructible Reptile could not solve to the Chaos Insurgency, and let them slowly enjoy this double happiness.
Listening to outside voices, these armed players obviously failed to solve this problem even when they were caught off guard. Otherwise, after the first few exclamations that found that they were facing this desperate combination that could hardly be seen, it sounded like the screams of being torn in half between SCP-096’s crying, along with the “crack” sound of broken bones from time to time.
The shells and empty magazines crashed to the ground, and the sound of gunshots that had been very lively before died down, gradually becoming silent.
After the last wailing, it weakened. Since all the guys who saw the face died, SCP-096 straightened the crooked paper bag on its head. But when it realized that it had been soaked, it stood blankly holding the paper bag for a long time, and still took it off a little reluctantly.
…Forget it. Anyway, there are as many as you want.
On the inside of the door, Lin You looked down and saw SCP-096 returning to the picture book, knowing that he could go out now.
Iris’s expression was still a bit dazed.
After agreeing to lend the camera, she watched the situation rush all the way in a completely unpredictable direction—SCP-173 with pictures of the “shy” guy. Was this because no one in the Foundation would dare to do that?!
She was almost stunned when she “saw” how the other party instructed the butler to put the photo-filled statue outside the door. She was so stunned that she almost forgot to enter the door because Lin You pulled her in.
Speaking of it, although the former colleague didn’t explain the specific process, she also said that Able went away completely after meeting the other party and SCP-682.
Captain…what exactly did you experience?
If it were to be replaced by the previous one, Iris could never imagine that she would sympathize with Able one day, and even if she was not very religious, she couldn’t help but want to say Amen.
But even so, even if she had such a little shock and doubt about this method, she would not regret it. She had dreamed of escaping from the control of the Foundation and living a long time like an ordinary person.
There was just one problem.
“Wait.” Seeing that Lin You was about to open the door, Iris hurriedly stopped, “We can’t just go out like this, isn’t that guy still—”
Were all the photos posted?
Wouldn’t they just see SCP-096’s face when they went out?
She also read several incident reports of SCP-096. Most of the agents sent to perform the re-containment mission were either dead or wounded. Naturally, she knew how obsessed it would be, and she did not hesitate to hunt her down to the ends of the world.
“That’s right.”
Lin You said with a smile.
“But don’t hurry up, that statue is about to run away.”
The squad leader of the Chaos Insurgency kicked in. She was able to trap SCP-173 here because of two doors that it couldn’t open. Now that there were no barriers, it could escape in minutes.
Iris’s concern was a problem. Even Lin You herself couldn’t tell what would happen by calling SCP-096 out after seeing its photos without being present. She couldn’t take the risk to tear up the photos.
“Don’t worry about the photos,” However, Lin You had already figured out a solution for a while. “It’s all about finding someone who has already seen his face.”
If they happened to not be dead yet, then another layer of insurance was added.
“Are you sure?”
She joked: “A certain evil god?”
Iris: “…”
Eh?
A few meters away, there was a sneer unexpectedly.
“You thought of me now.” Nyahlathotep leaned against the wall in his usual posture again, and he lazily raised his eyelids, “This little thing will bother me, but you can talk about me. Why do you want to do this?”
“Isn’t it fun by your standards?”
Naturally, Lin You asked rhetorically.
“I have tried this twice, and you know what the effect is of the two being together. If you missed an opportunity to make things more interesting today, are you sure you wouldn’t find it a pity?”
Nyah snorted.
It was tolerable—the next second he was persuaded, he gave such an evaluation while being arrogant.
Iris covered her eyes, opened her fingers involuntarily, and walked out as if looking at the other person through the gap.
Her peculiarity was only that she had awakened her ability to manipulate photos. Before being taken into custody by the Foundation, she was just a little girl who grew up in an ordinary family. However, because of this containment experience, she could feel that the other party was very human even though she was a human, but she still couldn’t imagine what it was.
The blinking problem that plagued ordinary humans was certainly not a problem for an outsider.
He could keep it as long as he wanted. Nyah tore off the photos attached to the statue and finally twisted them in his hands. Somehow, a ray of flame ignited on the corner of the photos, and he didn’t avoid it at all, letting the flame burn to his fingers and palms.
It was also strange. The flames seemed to have their own consciousness, crawling across his palms, and only the stacked photos were swallowed.
In the end, only a handful of ashes remained, and Nyah shook, and the powdery ashes fell, not even leaving a trace.
“I thought you would be afraid of fire,” Lin You thought thoughtfully, “after all, you and Cthugha—”
Nyah: “…”
Hearing the name, his face turned black immediately.
“Don’t mention that guy to me—it’s just a play, it has nothing to do with it.”
“Since you know such a thing,” he said without a smile, “Thank you for not calling it out?”
Compared with that guy, deliberately breaking the car and using that SCP-096 to get him hooked were both very polite.
Cthugha was also known as the “The Living Flame.” Its real body was like a living, constantly deforming flame, and it could indeed burn everything. Although he was once the ruler of the old days, he and Nyahlathotep were incomparable deadly enemies. It will respond to the demands of those threatened by Nyahlathotep, and if it was successfully summoned, it could become the ultimate trump card against him.
“Hey.”
Lin You didn’t notice the irony in his words, and replied with a smile, “No thanks.”
Nyah: “………………”
It was rare to have such an impulse to be almost choked by anger. He had to remind himself that this human being was chosen by him to partner—he chose her himself.
Furthermore, since joining, the despair and fear he saw have really pleased him, and he became more tolerant just thinking about it.
“For the sake of you showing me a good show,” he just sneered, “It’s not that I can’t help you any more.”
Lin You: “Huh?”
She always felt that the implicit meaning of this sentence was to do well in the future and don’t let him down.
Nyahlathotep’s sight did not leave the statue from beginning to end, and at this time he simply put his arm on SCP-173’s shoulder.
He glanced, “It turns out it’s not solid.”
“I remember it was hollow.” Lin You said, “However, no one knows what’s inside. It may be completely harmless, or it may be a world-destroying thing…Of course, it’s just hearsay.”
Nyahlathotep answered with enthusiasm.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
“Oh, it doesn’t matter if it’s true.”
He said: “Who wouldn’t destroy a world?”
“…”
Yes, this was really not a problem in his opinion.
As soon as this sentence came out, Lin You was stunned, but she scared the unknowing Iris. She looked blankly at Lin You and then at Nyah, and at Nyah and then at Lin You. For a while, she forgot what she wanted to say.
Nyahlathotep, one of the dignified three-pillar gods, didn’t care what a little human girl thought of him. He only sat on the statue and glanced at it from top to bottom. The whole body was so strong.
“I think they work well together.”
He returned to the cheerful smile he used to have, but his tone was completely threatening, “I don’t care about the consequences, I will break it. Maybe before the things inside can run out, I will already have—”
In the next second, SCP-173 disappeared out of thin air.
There was a sudden wind under his arm. Fortunately, the Cthulhu was prepared long ago, and he didn’t really put his strength on it. At this time, he took back his hand in time and looked at the card that was stuffed into Lin You’s hand sarcastically.
NAME: SCP-173 STATUE (THE ORIGINAL WORK)
CARD NUMBER: 002
LEVEL: SR
NOTE: AT THE BEGINNING, IT WAS A DOCUMENT THAT WROTE IT THAT OPENED THE CREATION OF THE “SCP FOUNDATION”, THEREFORE IT WAS CALLED THE “INITIAL WORK.” IT IS A FASCINATING STATUE THAT WILL BREAK YOUR NECK IN ANGER IF YOU DON’T STARE AT IT. ALTHOUGH ALIVE AND HIGHLY HOSTILE, IT DOES NOT SEEM TO DISLIKE APPEARING AT THE SAME TIME AS SCP-096. P.S. STOP PUTTING PHOTOS ON IT, THE STICKY GLUE IS REALLY UNCOMFORTABLE.
—It was convinced fast enough, he didn’t finish his words.
Nyah raised an eyebrow, “I’ll go back.”
He came and went abruptly. Even if she was mentally prepared for seeing how SCP-096 appeared once, she couldn’t help but be taken aback this time.
But she recovered from her dazedness, remembering Lin You’s plan, she swallowed, “Let’s now…”
Lin You said “Oh.”
“Yes, go to your colleagues,” she said, “But there is still something to be done.”
She turned to the butler.
“This way is troublesome. It won’t be convenient for you to follow, so see you next time?”
The group of Foundation agents was no better than the players. If the butler was following along, it would be noticed out of all likelihood. And her purpose was to make them trust her, and it would not be worth the loss if it aroused suspicion in advance.
Hearing what she said, Mr. Diaz only smiled.
“It’s been an honor,” he said.
He bowed, turned, and walked out, around the Chaos Insurgency member whose neck was broken on the ground and left 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 Iris again.
“Okay,” she said, “The last thing left—do you still keep the photo that you used to contact me before?”
“Yes, of course!”
Iris hurriedly responded. She rummaged through her leather jacket and trousers pockets, and finally, she was relieved after pulling out the photo. She blinked and looked at Lin You with the photo, “This is it.”
Lin You looked at the picture.
She wasn’t Iris, of course she couldn’t see how bizarre it was. In her opinion, this was an ordinary photo, with no human figures on it, and the view of the corridor alone was not well exposed because of the photographer’s rush. 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 shot through the window.
“Do you see that they are still there?” she asked.
Iris stared at the photo for a few seconds and nodded affirmatively, “They’re still there.”
“Good,” Lin You said, “Help me pass a message.”
The best way was for her to meet Jian Mingjia in person again, but time had not allowed her to do so. Iris had a special identity and ran away behind her teammates surreptitiously. In essence, she defected. After a long time, she herself would become one of the SCPs to be recontained. Lin You didn’t want this to happen.
“Follow your previous trick. Tell her no matter what method you use, take Little Geng and leave here as soon as possible. If it is convenient, you can take the North Exit where the Chaos Insurgency broke in. We have just cleared this side. There should be relatively few people. Be safe.”
It was another matter for Lin You to put herself into the hands of the Foundation. Most of the ordinary methods for passing this instance were only to escape from this building.
“And also—”
“If you come across an office door with a code lock or labeled ‘Dr. Maynard’ on the road, the code is 2265, it’s no harm to go in and see.”
Iris stared at the photo, pursing her lips, and stretching out her hand.
She reached into the thin piece of paper with her right hand, and it looked like half of her arm had disappeared out of thin air from the side. After more than a minute, Iris moved for a while and tilted her head to look at Lin You in a little confusion.
“This girl said she guessed what you wanted to do.”
Lin You: “…”
Really?!
She was somewhat weak, and coughed, “What else did she say?”
“She said she won’t stop you.”
Iris frowned, repeating: “…but it’s better to listen to her part of the plan and think about it together.”
*
Everything was arranged properly.
She was already mentally prepared, and Iris still seemed a little uneasy. She tried to calm her emotions with one deep breath after another, but at best she calmed her face. Only she knew how fast her heart was beating.
Especially the players who knew they were approaching “Pandora’s Box”—she had confirmed their positions with photos in advance—the emotions became tenser.
“Iris?!”
Even with the expected voice, she still shook. Her shoulder was soothingly patted, and she realized that she only needed to go back temporarily this time. Iris eased a lot and turned to Andrea who hurried over.
The latter turned around and shouted to the other members: “SC——”
When the number was called, her voice was heavy, but in the end, she couldn’t help but change her words, “Iris is here!”
Obviously, if she didn’t come back, the Omega-7 team would have treated her as the breached SCP-105—this was the rule. If they didn’t follow the rules, they would be executed.
When they saw Lin You next to Iris, based on the descriptions they heard, both Andrea and Beatrice, who approached together, recognized her at a glance, and at the same time, they showed vigilance on their faces. They clenched the guns in their hands, and the other party waved to them in a friendly manner, and Beatrice frowned and pulled Iris away.
“What’s the matter?” Beatrice asked.
Iris glanced at Lin You secretly.
“She called me over.”
She was not very good at lying, and now she pressed the string of good words and bit her teeth in one breath, but there were no flaws. “She said that I can only pass by, but I know Beatrice, you would definitely disagree, so—”
Beatrice: “You went there?”
Iris nodded with an imperceptible tremor.
“Then I chatted with her, and she said she was willing to accept her containment,” she said. “We took some time to hide from the Chaos Insurgency on the road, and now we have found you.”
Beatrice still had some doubts, but she still accepted the statement. At the moment when Able had gone violently, Iris’s loss was not a trivial matter. Four or five agents gathered here—almost half the team—and one of them pressed the voice button.
“An unregistered anomaly has been found.”
The agent said: “The other party indicated that she would voluntarily accept the containment.”
Under instructions, he took out the communication equipment. The screen showed that he had received a basic form, and he filled it in one by one.
The number was tentative.
Described as a black-haired and black-eyed Asian woman in her early twenties…
When he saw the “Item Level” column, he stopped for a while.
The Foundation often categorizes containment items, and the three most common levels are “Safe”, “Euclid”, and “Keter”. If understood simply, it is equivalent to safety, danger, and extreme danger. But to be precise, this did not refer to the degree of danger, but the difficulty of its containment. These three levels represent increasing difficulty.
The more you cooperate, the lower the difficulty.
At this time, the agent could not help but hesitate to look at the harmless Lin You from the inside out, completely allowing them to search.
The other party also carried a gentle and friendly smile, without showing any hostility or intention to escape.
Plus Iris’s testimony…
After a long silence, he finally filled in the lowest grade, “Safe”.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
