Chapter 375

An eerie whistling sound echoed in the corridor, coming from very far away, along with some breaking sounds.

"Mr. Gears, what was that sound just now?"

The "Witch Child's" eyes revealed extreme vigilance.

"That should be Dark Dr. Clef; he has come to find us."

"Dark Dr. Clef?"

In the "Witch Child's" curious and excited eyes, Dr. Gears wove the setting:

"Dr. Clef has been attacked by ultimate darkness, and a huge wave of invisible evil power has arrived in our world."

"It has taken over Dr. Clef, and only a very few witches and wizards still retain magic."

"I, as a 'Super Council Wizard,' have been dispatched, accompanied by the swordsman Kondraki, to subdue Clef and dispel the evil within him."

"As long as you and I work together, we can use this 'Emergency Spellbook,' and it can only be used by two wizards simultaneously when ultimate darkness shrouds us."

"We'll start with the smallest one, which is also the most basic spell everyone must learn first."

The "Witch Child's" eyes were sparkling:

"What is it?"

"Magic Missile."

At this, even Dan Heng couldn't hold it together.

This youth, known as the "Cold-Faced Little Green Dragon," had always been one to keep his emotions hidden.

But seeing Dr. Gears' ability to spout nonsense with a straight face, he had to admit defeat.

And Screwllum in the distance also commented in his spare time:

"Dr. Gears does indeed have unique qualities in some aspects."

9:43.

【Dr. Kondraki is discovered by "SCP-239" and Dr. Gears.】

9:44.

【The two doctors talk, during which Dr. Kondraki points at "SCP-239" multiple times.】

9:48.

【Dr. Clef appears.】

"Long time no see, my dear friends..."

Dr. Clef smiled and greeted the three people 3.0 not far away, taking the opportunity to close the distance between them.

Seeing "Dark Dr. Clef" carrying dangerous weapons, the "Witch Child" tensed up, ready to cast magic at any time.

But Dr. Clef didn't intend to act directly, instead looking at Dr. Kondraki.

The latter was holding the tripod in a strange posture, as if holding a knife.

"Hand over 'SCP-239', Konny, fighting doesn't benefit you or me."

"If you want it, you have to come and take it yourself. Don't you know the rules?"

"If I accidentally kill you this time, Konny, please don't blame me."

Listening to Dr. Clef's reply, Dr. Kondraki just tugged at his hat brim.

Then he took off his camera and handed it to Dr. Gears.

Signaling the latter to take "SCP-239" and retreat to the side first.

After the two were a bit further away, he looked straight into Dr. Clef's three eyes.

"Buddy, do you know what would be cool?"

"—Pair this with the *Highlander* theme song!"

Saying this, Dr. Kondraki gripped one of the tripod legs and turned it slowly.

Amidst the "hum" of metal friction.

A long sword was unsheathed, revealing a perfect blade, flashing with cold light under the lights.

And that sword tip, like a great star, pierced the starry sky, incomparably shining.

That tripod was actually a disguise!

"Come on, Konny. We aren't without dignity. *The Lord of the Rings* would be more appropriate, if you ask me."

Saying so.

Dr. Clef held the shotgun in his right hand, held it straight forward, and aimed the muzzle at Dr. Kondraki.

And his left hand held the pistol, resting on his right forearm.

This is the ancient mystery, the American-style Iaijutsu starting stance.
