Since it is the only one, it is an \"anomaly,\" and there must be some traits worth paying attention to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Waking up from a dream, civilization destroyed, having no relatives, and being Actions Actions Taken away as a trophy by a strange civilization...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To say there is no emotion at all is impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, before hibernation, it had expectations for today's situation, so it didn't emo for too long.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Subsequently, with the help of telepathy, it quickly learned the language of this civilization and was able to perform the most basic reading, writing, and communication.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the history and culture of civilization are always heavy; no matter what state this civilization is in at the moment, it should not be underestimated, and it needs some time to understand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's just that when the staff here knew it could read minds, they had an expression like they had seen a ghost, wishing they would never step into this containment cell again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A bit of a pity... \"SCP-001-Sage\" thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Extracting knowledge directly from thinking is the fastest way to learn, and it is also their consistent practice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That small spore cluster constantly absorbs nutrients, grows hyphae, weaves trunks, differentiates tissues, until the nursing staff senses the newborn mind, and \"Lone Star\" has a new member.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In its future growth, its telepathic ability becomes increasingly powerful, absorbing knowledge from the mind network spread across the planet, forming a personality, and then merging its own thinking into the big network, being able to read others and be read by others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in \"Earth Civilization,\" a fracture appeared between the inner thoughts of individuals and the expression of language, and the two are not unified.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Directly revealing the inner heart is regarded as a taboo, a kind of childishness that should be restrained and corrected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>——It is no different from those civilizations in the universe that cannot perform telepathy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It has no opinion on this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Different life forms, different races, different environments, different development histories... together form the background color of civilization.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It has no right to judge.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>At least in front of the \"Black Moon,\" its civilization has long been destroyed, and this civilization is still expanding toward the starry sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amidst the continuous strong notes, \"Symphony of Fate\" ended, and \"SCP-001-Sage\" slowly opened its eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Footsteps seemed to come from the direction of the bamboo forest; \"SCP-001-Sage,\" which was trying to understand human art, suddenly raised its head, and a faint blue light lit up in its simulated eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next second, a piece of the bamboo forest pattern was missing, showing the appearance of a door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, amidst the sound of the lock core retracting and the hydraulic device working, the gate rose, and the Administrator's figure appeared at the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hello there.\" The Administrator raised his hand and waved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next second, he saw light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was hard to describe; it was as if a flashbang had been stuffed into his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dazzling blue light occupied every part of his field of vision, stinging his retinas and burning the cone cells at the bottom of his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was simply too fast to react.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At another time, in another place, he would have at least cursed \"high-beam dog.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I just changed my eyes today... The Administrator's eyes were a bit painful; he realized later and turned his face to the side, raising his hand to cover his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the discomfort subsided, he looked back at \"SCP-001-Sage,\" which was still shining brightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its skin color is blue like an Avatar, the surface is smooth and hairless, without spots like a poisonous mushroom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the luminous intensity will rise with the deepening of thought or the intensity of emotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure enough, the Administrator heard a hoarse voice:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You... you...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"'Balance'?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Full of shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it is the \"anomaly\" of \"Lone Star,\" then there is no doubt that the person in front of him is the \"anomaly\" of the universe, a unique individual in the universe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are truly knowledgeable,\" the Administrator smiled, walking toward the garden room while taking off his monocle and putting on sunglasses, \"Do you mind if I sit down?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please... no problem.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"SCP-001-Sage\" was suddenly a bit cramped; it watched the Administrator walk to the small wooden table and sit down, and it followed suit and sat opposite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I understand... Yes, I understand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you very much.\" After sitting down, the Administrator could finally examine the survivor of this civilization in detail.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It looks a bit like Thanos, but overall it looks several sizes smaller, the head is obviously round, the nose is flat, and there are no lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It looks quite like a person... After silently evaluating it, the Administrator continued:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am the Administrator, do you have a name?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Responding to him was another burst of intense light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Administrator began to be glad that he had put on sunglasses in advance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My name is a series of light and movements that cannot be performed with your body structure.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"SCP-001-Sage\" said humbly and sincerely: \"Here, I am called 'SCP-001-Sage'.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That should be how it's pronounced, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you like it, that's fine.\" The Administrator pursed his lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The light on \"SCP-001-Sage\" converged a lot: \"It's just a code name, it doesn't matter.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The room fell into silence for a while; the Administrator looked at the surrounding environment, planning that the environment of the next residence would be like this... of course, if there was an old-fashioned tavern, it would be even better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a general plan in mind, the Administrator quickly refocused on the matter at hand, and he asked:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you have a way?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A way?\" \"SCP-001-Sage\" was stunned for a moment, and a blue halo covered its body again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A way to stop the 'Black Moon'.\" The Administrator explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You already know one.\" \"SCP-001-Sage\" answered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Administrator seemed not to have expected it to answer like this; his thoughts paused for a moment, but it was only for a moment, and in the next second, he understood what was going on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You read my mind?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes,\" \"SCP-001-Sage\" nodded, \"Your mind is shouting at me. Even if I wanted to, it's hard to ignore it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The survivor of the civilization said, frowning—if that could be called eyebrows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It pondered for a moment, constantly opening its mouth, making low syllables, as if calibrating the pronunciation:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"'S'... 'C'... 'B'... is that how it's read? What is this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It is victory.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Administrator smiled and answered calmly: \"But before the final victory arrives, there will be a long, long time to wait.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don't know how much longer I can hold on... That day is too far away, and I'm very tired now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speaking of this, the Administrator rested his elbows on the table, supporting his chin with one hand:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"However, there were people who loved me here, and I have a reason to hold on... What about you? In your world, there should have been someone who loved you too, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In human society, such an inquiry might be a bit offensive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when facing an alien friend, the ethical and moral values belonging to humans can be temporarily cast aside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes,\" \"SCP-001-Sage\" nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the answer of \"SCP-001-Sage,\" the Administrator shook his head, as if confiding, as if talking to himself:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But we abandoned them all, and finally walked to today, came here...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More exhaustion surged from the bottom of his heart, forming a trickle from the ancient era of his birth, carrying the fate and loved ones he had experienced, mixed with pain and joy, as well as those \"goodbyes\" that could never be realized again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That trickle flowed through the journey he took with his friends, penetrated the years they spent together, mixed into the laughter and bitterness of the past, and poured into the thousands of years he walked alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To this day, the only reason he survives is the goal set at the beginning of life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Finally reached this point.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The long journey of tens of thousands of years turned into a long sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And such a sigh will probably accompany him until the final victory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After pausing for a moment, he raised his head and looked across the table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes.\" \"SCP-001-Sage\" echoed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Administrator's voice was a bit hoarse: \"I don't know how much more I can abandon.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"SCP-001-Sage\": \"Then pass the 'Balance' to someone else.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How do you know about the 'Balance'?\" The Administrator asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Once, there was someone like you on my planet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"SCP-001-Sage\" looked up:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Undoubtedly, he was a powerful hero...
