Chapter 79

~7 min read 1,264 words

Himeko looked at "Stelle" who had left the seat and smiled slightly:

"Young people have a lot of initiative."

Speaking of this topic, she suddenly remembered the two who had officially revealed their hearts after the great battle.

These two couldn't be called having initiative; how long had they been dragging it out.

"I don't know how things are going with Xiao Bai Xuan."

Today's March 7th didn't look like March 7th at all.

She hadn't visited the space station, hadn't gone to find Asta's dog, and hadn't visited Herta's Curio Collection Room.

The kite that was always floating in the sky on weekdays had finally been tied with a strong enough string.

To the side, Welt Yang leaned over, leaning on his cane.

He stared at the motionless Herta puppet for a while, then focused his gaze on the screen.

Now, he knew why "Stelle" chose to return to the Astral Express at this time.

"The Foundation is really keen on displaying their archives."

Although this thing was like the credits after a movie ended, not many people would watch it.

But there would always be a few people interested in the content inside.

Coincidentally, Welt Yang counted as one of them.

Not long ago, he had dealt with the Jedi and Protoss under the Foundation.

He pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose and sat in the seat "Stelle" had previously occupied.

Watching.

【Operation Codename: Non-existent Memory (Nothing Happened)】

【Time: October 26, 1961 - October 30, 1961】

【Operation Location: Alliance - New City】

【After the Foundation received a D-class personnel, it was discovered that the personnel developed symptoms such as fever and cold intolerance, then fell into a coma, and showed zombification tendencies after a period of time.】

【After the Foundation's scientific research personnel conducted a comprehensive examination of the D-class personnel, a prion never seen before was isolated from their body. In subsequent injection tests conducted on D-class personnel, symptoms identical to the first case were shown.】

【Later, two D-class personnel were executed, and the bodies were fed to "SCP-682"; "SCP-682" showed certain zombification symptoms, recovered not long after, and no antibodies were isolated.】

【October 27, 1961, zombification symptoms appeared in Alliance New City; 【Data Deleted】 dispatched 57 C-class personnel, 20 D-class personnel, and 10 members of the Task Force to provide support.】

【October 28, 1961, a Level 4 Agent of the Foundation went to Alliance New City for field investigation and confirmed the source of contamination that evening.】

【October 28, 1961, 【Data Deleted】 used 2 pills of "SCP-500", "SCP-038", and "SCP-427" to treat the infected.】

【October 30, 1961, all Foundation personnel evacuated.】

【Losses: 1 pill of "SCP-500", 500 replicas of "SCP-500" produced by "SCP-038", 20 D-class personnel.】

【Note 1: When the Administrator reviewed this file again, everyone liked to play 40K memes, so the Administrator decided that after 400K years, this file could be completely unsealed.】

【Note 2: In subsequent environmental monitoring of the area where Alliance New City is located, no carriers of "SCP-008" were found; it can be considered that wild "SCP-008" no longer exists.】

【Anomaly: The Everything Tree】

【Item Number: SCP-038】

【Danger Level: Safe】

【Description: Initially, it was thought to be an ordinary apple tree. However, after further investigation, it was discovered that "SCP-038" has the ability to replicate any object that comes into contact with its bark...】

【File #338-2: "SCP-038" has the ability to clone "SCP-500"—but this cloned pill only has 30% of the efficacy of "SCP-038". Furthermore, the probability of the replica successfully curing a patient decreases with the number of cloning attempts.】

【Anomaly: Lovecraftian Pendant】

【Item Number: SCP-427】

【Danger Level: Safe】

【Description: When "SCP-427" is opened and exposed to organic tissue, it can rapidly heal cell damage and to a certain extent purify compounds or infectious diseases that invade the body.】

【However, long-term contact with it will cause serious health hazards.... After D-class staff were exposed to the device for more than 1 hour, their mass mutated into an amorphous organism.】

【"SCP-427" is currently used to partially replace "SCP-500" medication because it can cure almost all symptoms that "SCP-500" can cure.】

【Anomaly: Panacea】

【Item Number: SCP-500】

【Danger Level: Safe】

【Description: One pill can effectively cure all diseases within two hours after oral administration, depending on the type and severity of the disease the subject has. Despite extensive experimentation, all attempts to synthesize the active ingredients of the pill have failed.】

【Appendix 500-1: 2 pills were permitted for use in experiments related to "SCP-008". Results after a series of tests on personnel infected with "SCP-008" show that even in the terminal stage of the disease, one pill can completely cure it.】

【Appendix 500-9: Request 500-1862-b was approved. 1 pill was placed in "SCP-914" and subjected to "fine" processing. The resulting item was classified as "SCP-427".】

As the brief description of the last anomaly was displayed, countless people watching the live stream paused in unison.

"All diseases... would that include the Mara-Struck state of the Xianzhou people?"

This was the first thought of the vast majority of the audience on the Xianzhou after reading the entry.

Even Jing Yuan, when seeing this anomaly, felt his state of mind, which he thought would no longer have waves, become agitated again.

If the Xianzhou could obtain this medicine, could the fate that had plagued the Xianzhou people for thousands of years be broken?!

That curse of longevity that all Xianzhou people could not shake off, the outcome of falling into the Mara-Struck state that all Xianzhou people had to face...

Could it also be counted as a disease?

If it were counted...

If he could have known about the existence of "SCP-500" earlier, would his teacher not have had to die?!

"Panacea..."

Hearing the discussion of others, Dan Shu suddenly opened her blind eyes.

Even though she was "Heaven-Deficient," even though she was the leader of the "Disciples of Sanctus Medicus"...

When she learned that there was such a panacea that could cure all diseases, her emotions still fluctuated uncontrollably.

Although she didn't know the specific principle.

But... letting her regain her sight should be possible, right?

However, such a thought did not last long.

She mocked herself, revealing a lonely expression.

She was "Heaven-Deficient," she was the leader of the "Disciples of Sanctus Medicus"...

These things could not be trusted.

Rather than believing that a Foundation whose location was unknown could bestow grace upon the Xianzhou, she would only continue to follow the "Compassionate Medicus," to mend her innate disability.

Afterwards, she took a deep breath and continued to transform into the "Dan Shu" that people knew.

Astral Express.

March 7th hugged Bai Xuan's neck from behind, her large eyes reflecting the description of the final containment object.

"Little Bai, do you think losing one's memory counts as a disease?"

She felt some anticipation, and also some worry.

How wonderful it would be if she could recover her memories.

But if, after recovering her memories, everything before her eyes and the happiness she had just gained were to vanish in an instant, what should she do then?

She was looking forward to it, while simultaneously fearing it.

Bai Xuan raised his left hand and pinched her nose:

"It doesn't, Little March."

"However, if it's Little March, you can try as many times as you like."

"Come on, open your mouth."

As he spoke, Bai Xuan reached his left hand into the void, grabbed casually, and produced a red pill.

"?"

March 7th was slightly stunned, then felt a small round tablet being pushed into her mouth.

What is this, coaxing this young lady again...
