Chapter 151

Luofu Luofu Xianzhou "Luo Fu," an unknown corner.

Silver Wolf was lying on the railing, her armpits against the crossbar, holding her game console with both hands, playing at the height of her excitement.

The Foundation's heinous crimes suddenly aroused her incomparable curiosity.

Silver Wolf nudged Kafka beside her with her elbow.

"Kafka, I didn't see wrong, did I? The Foundation actually contained... 'God'?"

Kafka, who was enjoying the night view of "Luo Fu" leaning on the railing, turned her head, her right thumb and index finger pinching an empty soda can, playing with it casually, as if playing with people's hearts.

"Sigh, I also really want to know where the Foundation is. That way, even if Elio can't see the future related to the Foundation, you can try to hack into their system."

"Forget it."

Silver Wolf's answer was simple and crisp.

"My intuition tells me that even if I offend all the big shots in the galaxy, it wouldn't be as exciting as offending the Foundation once."

"Oh?" Kafka raised her eyebrows in surprise, "It's rare to see you surrender before fighting; it doesn't look like your style. The Silver Wolf of the 'Stellaron Hunters' who dared to fight Screwllum is gone."

"I have self-knowledge."

The movement of Silver Wolf's hands paused, she exited the game, put away the console, crossed her arms on the crossbar, and said helplessly.

"I don't want to be targeted by the Foundation."

"The Foundation's anomaly numbers go up to 2000; this is not something Herta's shabby collection room can compare to."

"And each anomaly has dedicated researchers, and even more dedicated containment measures, security forces, and interstellar fleets to ensure the safety of these anomalies."

"The difficulty of this is not on the same level as bullying Herta's space station system."

"To be honest, I still suspect that if Herta's order to Zhao Zhao Zhao Zena was 'Attack Nanook until confirming 200% of His death,' we wouldn't have to worry about the universe ending because of 'Destruction' at all."

"If the name 'Nanook' was changed to 'Silver Wolf'..."

After saying this, Silver Wolf blew a bubble.

"Pop—"

The bubble burst, and Silver Wolf continued to chew the remains of the chewing gum.

Seeing that Silver Wolf didn't want to discuss this issue anymore, Kafka turned her gaze back to the screen.

"SCP-343" is called "God" by the Foundation and then widely publicized; the Administrator must know.

This represents the attitude of this powerhouse.

It indirectly shows that "SCP-343" partially or fully conforms to the concept and impression of "God."

It's not some fake with a name but no reality.

The text faded, and the detailed file followed.

[Anomaly: "God"]

[Classification: Divinity]

[Item Number: SCP-343]

[Danger Level: Safe]

[Item Description: "SCP-343" is a male, appearing to be a non-racial humanoid, but clearly omnipotent.]

["SCP-343" was discovered while walking on the streets of Prague and was detained after an employee witnessed him disappearing from the street and reappearing on the roof.]

["SCP-343" is voluntarily detained in his containment room, as containment has been proven impossible (see notes).]

After a while, the text on the screen gradually disappeared.

Melodious classical music came.

When the screen finished displaying, what appeared on the screen was an extremely elegant room.

Under the bright lights, shiny wooden furniture was neatly arranged, a wide variety of books were arranged on the bookshelves, and silver tableware was stored in the cabinets.

The rocking chair swayed back and forth, at a very slow speed, occasionally hitting the beat.

An old man in classical clothing was lying on it, and it took a while before he slowly opened his eyes.

"Sure enough, it's really an anomaly corresponding to divinity."

"Omnipotent... is this description serious? Even Aeons, not one can be called omnipotent."

"What does 'containment is impossible' mean? Could it be that 'God' voluntarily stays in the Foundation's containment room, rather than really being contained by the Foundation?"

"Is this old grandpa 'God'? He feels like the old grandpas of the outworlders on our Luofu Luofu Xianzhou."

"Old grandpa? Why do I see a middle-aged man, black hair and black beard, with deep eyes, like a philosopher."

"Something's wrong, very, even nine-tenths wrong; what I see is a blond-haired, golden-eyed uncle."

"Hiss—is this the power of 'God'?"

[Special Containment Procedures: "SCP-343" resides in a 6.1m x 6.1m room at the lowest security Site-17.]

[At least one employee should visit daily and provide any items requested.]

[Due to the nature of "SCP-343," adding further security precautions or requiring permissions is unnecessary/impossible (see description).]

[Appendix #343-1: "SCP-343" has been given the common nickname "God" by the employees here. He appears to be an elderly male, yet his appearance seems different to every observer.]

[When I first spoke with him, he bluntly claimed to be the creator of the universe. When I asked him to prove it, he laughed, walked through the wall of the containment room, and returned a few seconds later holding a hamburger. When I visited him a second time, the previously bare room had been upgraded with furnishings, old-fashioned English style, a burning fireplace, and the room was many times larger than it looked from the outside.]

["SCP-343" loves to talk to people and seems to know everything. Visiting "SCP-343" has become a daily activity for many employees here, and all employees report feeling happier after each visit.]

[Attempts to block employees with security clearance below level 3 have proven unsuccessful, as guards assigned to watch the room would leave their posts without authorization. When asked, they said, "You know he likes company" or just shrugged.]

[Since "SCP-343" has had no malice so far, all employees have been allowed to enter, but for some reason, they all have time to meet with him whenever they need to. Currently, as further inquiries into "SCP-343" are ongoing, I am keeping this report in an open state.]

[--Dr. Beck]

Herta had not yet recovered from the shock brought by "Deus Ex Machina" when she heard even more explosive and violent news.

"The universe's... creator..."

Herta's purple eyes trembled slightly.

It is unimaginable what kind of great power it takes to create the entire universe, and then lie on the Foundation's rocking chair, swaying for fun.

In the universe, there are more than 2 trillion galaxies, and in each galaxy, there are at least tens of billions to trillions of star systems.

Before the Aeons, there were even mysterious ancient beasts living.

Was all this really created by the ordinary old man in the picture?

"But this is His own claim."

"What the truth is, the Foundation might know, or might not; at least they didn't write this into the official file, just as an accompanying document."

Maintaining a critical and skeptical mindset is the only way to discover problems, perceive the breaks in what is "Actions Actions Taken for granted," and detect possible research topics.

This is Herta's experience over the years.

What puzzles Herta is that this anomaly didn't run around, unlike previous anomalies that would always break containment for various strange reasons.

Perhaps "God" has already walked through the universe once and is lying here.

Or perhaps "God," besides being omnipotent, is also omniscient, and everything in the universe is playing out before His eyes.

Herta cannot understand, let alone guess.

Even if she is a genius, she belongs to the category of humans, not "God."

Herta's thoughts were messy, and the file updated again in the next moment.

Compared to the previous file, the subsequent file was slightly eerie.

[Appendix #343-2: Regarding Document 343-1a, there are no available or suspected records of its existence. Similarly, records of Dr. █ working with "SCP-343" or Dr. Beck are missing and presumed non-existent. All employees asked about the situation of the document stated they were unaware of Document #343-1a and claimed to have never seen Dr. █.]

[Related to this, senior staff member Dr. Beck requested faster personnel rotation "...to improve morale in departments where the situation is deteriorating." This was a very strange request and was also the subject of further investigation.]

[Other local anomalies in the department, such as better health, higher job satisfaction, and fewer casualties, have led to the approval of the request. This topic has been closed under the order of O5-█.]

[Appendix #343-3: On █ Year █ Month █ Day, data was recovered during a routine check of Dr. █'s network drive:]

[Document #343-1a: "[Data Lost]... due to [Data Deleted] the 'visitors' of 'SCP-343' must be questioned about their intentions and conversations... [Data Lost]... questions about other anomalies should be raised first... [Data Lost]... Dr. █'s order."]

[Document #343-1b: "[Data Lost]... apparently my orders have been lost. This is the last straw Dr. B... [Data Lost]... all my reports and requests to superiors have been ignored. Tomorrow I will personally face 'SCP-343' signed by Dr. █."]
