Zongman: Endless Shuttle Chapter 746
One step, two steps, three steps.
Every step is like stepping on the hearts of two soldiers, like the crisp sound of death grinding a sickle.
——Woooooo!
Just when Luo Pei was about to approach a dangerous distance, and the soldiers put their finger on the trigger, the roar of the jeep engine came from a distance.
Rope got his attention.
After about a minute or so, a dark green jeep stopped above the port, and an old man in a white researcher uniform stepped down from the passenger seat.
"It seems that I came in time?"
"Dr. Hollard!?"
"Well done, soldier, you are not ashamed of your uniform."
The old man nodded to the soldier in the helmet, and then turned his gaze to Rope... …
"Unknown Mr. Inhuman, I am Dr. Kevin Hollard, the main research director of this base, and now I am only inviting you to his office on behalf of Site Director Wingate Peasley. Director Peasley has I want to talk to you."
"oh?"
Luo Pei played with the water polo in his hand, with a smile on his face.
"Should we go before the soldiers? Let me guess, you must have arranged a very good containment measure, right? I will go to the base of the SCP Foundation, but the process may not be as you wish."
A foundation that can contain many dangerous SCPs, if Luo Pei just walked in so stupidly, he would be a real fool.
Kevin Hollard took a deep breath.
"I think you may have misunderstood something. Under the instruction of the supreme leader here, Director Wingate Peaslee, we are not hostile to you, and naturally we have not set up any trap you imagined. Please believe this alone. I."
As he spoke, the old man took out something from his bosom and threw it at Luo Pei.
"Pisley once said that you are suspicious by nature, so let me show you this when you don't trust me. He said that after you read this, all doubts will be solved."
Lopez caught what Dr. Kevin threw with confidence, and he was confident that no matter whether it was a bomb or a strange virus, it would not have any major impact on him.
Let go of your hand, and what lies in Luo Pei's palm is an old piece of leather.
It looks like the texture of human skin. On the leather, there is a sentence written in English.
- The Shadow of The Oldis Bound to Comeback. (The shadows of the past are bound to return)
Rope frowned.
Of course he knew what it meant.
This is the first sentence that an orthodox occultist learns before stepping into the strange way of occult arts and praying to the indescribable evil gods in the starry sky.
Could the Site Director of the SCP Foundation be a occultist?
This is really... interesting.
Luo Pei put away the leather and looked at the old man standing in front of him again.
There is not much feeling of alienation, genuine, pure human beings that can no longer be pure.
"Lead the way." The black-haired youth said briefly.
"... glad we reached a consensus."
Dr. Kevin Hollard breathed a sigh of relief.
To be honest, he also felt absurd when he received the order from Peasley—it was no different from committing suicide by jumping off a building to actively invite an abnormal creature with advanced intelligence to the SCP Foundation. Even the latter may survive, while the former must die.
But fortunately, the familiarity accumulated over decades made him reluctantly agree. In the end, it also proved that Peasley did not live up to his trust.
Kevin got back into the car and glanced uneasily at the black-haired young man in the seat behind him.
What the hell are you planning, Peasley...
Chapter 9 An Important Ancient Book, The Immortal Lizard That Runs Away
Passing through the cave, sitting on a transparent elevator and going down, the honeycomb-shaped Asian branch of the SCP Foundation came into Rope's eyes.
Along the way, as Kevin Hollard said, without any ambushes or surprise attacks by armed forces, they walked to the core of the SCP Foundation branch in a smooth and comfortable manner.
——The twentieth floor underground.
"I thought it would be more special to be here."
Rope walked behind Kevin and said jokingly.
"At least there must be automatic doors, artificial intelligence, infrared laser corridors, etc., to be worthy of the identity of the SCP Foundation?"
"Don't look at me so old, but I still know something about the movie "Resident Evil"."
Kevin opened yet another locked door with his ID card.
"The ones you mentioned may have been developed in the headquarters, but as you can see, this is just a small branch that can't get on the stage and is cursed by me every day."
"You are honest."
"Because there's no need to lie... well, here we are."
The two came to a three-way intersection, and Kevin stopped.
"Just keep going along this road, and Peasley will open the door for you."
"Why don't you go with me." Luo Pei narrowed his eyes: "Or, there is some reason why you can't set foot on this road."
Kevin sighed, took his eyes off and wiped them.
"Sir, it's good to be vigilant. But you've reached such a core place, even if you think with your toes, there won't be any excessive traps. Even if there are—are you afraid of guns and bombs?"
Rope said jokingly.
"I will be afraid of hitting the Star Destroyer gun once."
"……now it's right."
Kevin put on his glasses and held out his hand.
"I have other research projects to attend to, and I wish you a pleasant conversation with Peasley."
He paused and then said: "In addition, as a rare alien creature with normal human thinking, Mr. Luo Pei, I hope that even if the conversation is not pleasant, you can restrain your thoughts of living here and making trouble. We are all stepping on a nuclear bomb , in order not to be bombed onto the moon together, I sincerely beg you."
