Chapter 374

【- Five rough red teardrops, possibly symbolizing fire;】

【- Six wavy lines arranged side by side, possibly symbolizing wind.】

【After a D-class personnel rolled a 3, and then rolled a 2. Foundation agents dug 3 D-class personnel out of the ice and had them treated for minor frostbite on their toes and feet.】

【Special Containment Procedures:】

【"SCP-776-ARC" should be kept in a state of suspension on a plastic base, with one side facing down. When holding 776, experimental personnel should be required to wear heat-insulating, insulating, and radiation-proof protective clothing. D-class personnel are prohibited from obtaining similar protective clothing.】

Very obviously.

The elements generated by "SCP-776-ARC" can react with each other, causing all kinds of magical effects.

"I know this, Water element + Electro element = Electro-Charged reaction, Cryo element + Electro element = Superconduct reaction..."

"Who asked you?"

But there were also audience members who didn't focus on this, but were concerned about Dr. Bright's behavior of coming from afar to support the SCP.

"This is probably called love-hate relationship."

"If you meet someone like Dr. Bright, just marry them."

"Ah? How dare you assume Dr. Bright's gender,"

"Isn't that even more exciting?"

"... 6."

Dr. Clef carefully took out "SCP-776-ARC," fearing that if his hand shook, he would drop the die on the ground and send himself to an instant death.

Although there was no "Darwin Award" within the Foundation, if one died too stupidly, they would still be remembered by all staff.

He hooked his top hat with his left hand, and gently flicked his right thumb to throw "SCP-776-ARC."

The die rolled continuously and finally stopped against the wall, with three dark blue teardrops on top.

The surface of the die began to leak water.

Like a trickling stream.

Dr. Clef exhaled, picked up the wet die, and threw it toward the wall again.

This time, a small fountain appeared on the surface of the die, and clear liquid gushed out.

What's the use of just spraying water? You're a die, not a beautiful girl, or a charming SCP...

Can you come up with something useful...

Dr. Clef twitched the corner of his mouth.

He retrieved the die from the water again.

Then, he placed "SCP-776-ARC" in front of his mouth and muttered in a low voice:

"Give me some power, goddammit."

After speaking, he closed his eyes and remained still for a few seconds.

984177810

Then, before the die could react, he threw it for the third time.

It was unknown whether the die heard Dr. Clef's threat or if this doctor had hit the jackpot.

This metallic-colored die sank to the bottom of the water, rolled a few times, and finally settled on two pale blue snowflakes.

In an instant, a silver-white light flashed, and the water surface instantly froze, turning into a smooth ice surface.

And beneath the ice surface, ice crystals extended rapidly, spreading like vines.

In an instant, the entire corridor became cold, even if one were wearing winter clothes, it wouldn't be surprising.

9:37.

【The G-8 corridor was rapidly frozen, cutting off Sector 7 of Site-17 from the rest of the site.】

【In the following five minutes, the ice released by SCP-776 spread at a rate of 1000 cubic centimeters per minute.】

"Beautiful!"

Dr. Clef looked at the infinitely growing ice wall and revealed a Cheshire Cat-like smile.

Throughout the corridor, there was cold air everywhere; although it was cold enough to make one shiver, it at least made his burns feel much better.

More importantly...

Dr. Clef glanced at the thickly sealed corridor.

... No one would come to disturb his execution anymore.

The Foundation's lighting system was very complete, but after being attacked by ice and snow, many circuits had problems. Now emergency lights were lit one after another, only barely dispelling the darkness, making this place like twilight.

Dr. Clef carried a shotgun on his back, held a pistol, and his three eyes flashed with eerie light.

Clef began to hunt!

9:38.

【Dr. Clef left the G-8 corridor and moved toward the current location of Dr. Gears and "SCP-239."】

The screen switched again, returning to the face-to-face session between Dr. Gears and the O5 council member.

"Gears, goddammit, what did you say to her?"

This O5 council member was obviously furious; he didn't know how many times he had slammed the table today.

His hand hurt, so let it hurt; it was just that after slamming the table too many times, it lost its due deterrent and warning effect.

It became boring and dull.

Dr. Gears looked back calmly, still with that unflappable appearance.

"Sir, I cannot understand your current anxiety."

"This recording is well preserved, and the audio in the discussion also has 88% integrity. You already know the content and effect of the conversation."

"I don't..."

"No, you dare to bullshit with me." The O5 council member slammed the table again.

Dr. Gears pushed his glasses.

Doesn't the council member's hand hurt?

This is like asking someone who kills without blinking if their eyes are dry.

"I know you, Gears, that bullshit logic of yours for arguing with others won't work on me."

"I have read your file, and I have also reviewed the incident, so don't treat me like a goddamn idiot. Now, you answer me, immediately, what on earth did you say?"

Dr. Gears: "..."

The O5 council member was finally not so angry; he slowly leaned back in his chair, picked up his coffee, and tasted it slowly.

Long-lasting anger indeed makes people tired.

Dr. Gears thought so.

"Gears, what you have done might bring down the entire Foundation."

The O5 council member said earnestly.

"More importantly, you destroyed the goddamn SCP! What on earth are you thinking? She can do anything, Gears."

"We wanted to keep her from the experiment, but you did this! You heartless freak, I swear if..."

Dr. Gears raised his hand to interrupt him.

"I understand your helplessness, but I don't think this is necessary."

"I caused a containment breach for 239; however, I did so to restore the SCP."

"I didn't make her do what I asked, or she would have questioned the current 'Witch Child' control strategy."

"I used every resource I could mobilize to expand the control strategy and influence the end of the hostile action initiated by Dr. Clef."

【"SCP-239" still doesn't know the full extent of her abilities, only that they can be enhanced by 'Super Council Wizards' and their 'Emergency Spellbooks'."】

The council member was stunned.

"... What on earth are you talking about?"

In the corridor on the other side.

Dr. Gears was moving forward, chatting and laughing with a blonde little girl.

Besides that *Xinhua Dictionary*, he was also holding a tripod.

Anyone who didn't know would think it was an elementary school teacher bringing teaching aids to class.

Suddenly.
