Chapter 937: Does the Black Moon howl? — Only to the blind
As the conversation between the two slowly deepened and progressed, the audience had vaguely realized that the Administrator was older than they had imagined.
"If you say the Administrator was born early, then it has no aura; but if you say the Administrator was born before 'having a name,' then the aura is very high, high to the point of being speechless."
"An era when humans didn't call each other by name... that shouldn't be, could it be before the birth of writing, after the birth of early language?"
And it's not just these... on the original track, the Administrator might have been destined to be just an ordinary primitive man, just like his clansmen of that era.
Until the hermit of unknown origin and background came from afar, walked to the village where the Administrator was, and handed the power named "Counterbalance" to the latter.
"It's like the classic bridge in all fantasy novels — the Great Sage searches for the hero all over the world, lets the hero pull out the sword in the stone to challenge the Demon King... It's just that the selection ceremony here has changed, changed to those who can witness the annihilation process can inherit this power."
"So, why didn't the hermit solve the 'Black Moon' himself? He is older than the 'Administrator,' and his experience is richer than the 'Administrator's.' Why throw away this power that represents immortality?"
"Perhaps the truth is this: at the same time the 'Black Moon' was born, the power of 'Counterbalance' was born. Someone inherited this power long ago and passed it down generation by generation to the hermit. The hermit didn't know how to fight the 'Black Moon,' so he handed it to the 'Administrator'."
"This seems to explain some problems."
"If this is really the case, it can explain why the Administrator's evaluation of Captain Ahab is that he is not '170' hard-working enough... For the Administrator, fighting the 'Black Moon' is not a whaling on the sea, nor a whaling in the star sea, but a counterattack that bets the lives of all intelligent life in the entire universe."
"And this battle will last for a long time, until the Administrator dies, or the 'Black Moon' is destroyed."
Amidst the audience's discussion, the conversation between the Administrator and O5-3 ended here.
O5-3 packed his things, tucked the briefcase, bowed to the Administrator, and left slowly, leaning on his cane.
As the door closed, the picture in the light screen faded away.
Immediately after, lines of text jumped out, and a follow-up file unfolded in the light screen.
【File Update Time - 02/05/1993】
【Item Number: SCP-001-Key】
【Danger Level: Thaumiel】
【Special Containment Procedures:】
【Materials used to create "SCP-001-Key" will be stored in the security warehouse of Site-01.】
【Conceptual records used to contact "SCP-001-Key" individuals and "SCP-001" can only be stored in the Site-01 database.】
【Amnestics will be used to prevent knowledge of related concepts from leaking from Site-01.】
【The unreliable "SCP-001-Key" created in the plan will be placed under containment, in the hope that it may be beneficial to the research work of "SCP-001" in future research.】
【Once "SCP-001-Key" is fully determined, it is approved to be contained at a location outside Site-01.】
【However, to maintain the potential containment of "SCP-001," all "SCP-001-Key" must be placed under observation.】
【All newly created "SCP-001-Key" individuals and research on existing "SCP-001-Key" individuals must be approved by Dr. Moto.】
"Key? Is this the secret weapon the Administrator uses to fight the 'Black Moon'?"
"It should be, but this is the first time I've seen the Foundation create an 'anomaly'."
"If you can fight the 'Black Moon' without creating 'anomalies' and researching containment objects, the Administrator at that time would probably be very happy to pass the 'Counterbalance' to you and let you raise the banner of resisting the Supreme Divinity."
"Hehe, I won't go."
In the hearts of the audience, there is an identical question:
The Administrator is neither a Supreme Divinity nor a divinity at this time. How can he fight the "Black Moon," which is a Supreme Divinity?
Relying on his immortality? Relying on his superhuman recovery ability? Or his potential to become the King of Resistance to Falls?
In daily anime, such abilities can be called powerful. ===== CHAPTER 939 =====
