Chapter 152: A Strange World(1/2)
"Execute these two things? Are you kidding me?"
Brett casually kicked the broken corpses lying on the ground beside his feet. Although he had never done anything like this before, he said it was the same as the execution process...Brett didn't want to go through the containment process again.
It failed; after all, the consequences of every containment failure are too terrible.
Even Deus Ex Machina has no idea how many times it has been restarted.
Corning silently picked up some white powder from the ground. The two people who were once SCP Foundation researchers naturally understood that this white unknown powder was obviously the residue that fell from SCP-173; although some people heard that
The urban legend that makes people laugh out loud is very unreliable...
But as long as it involves SCP, urban legends have to be taken seriously.
For example, rumors that SCP-173 is actually alive will often be discovered after investigation.
Corning rubbed the white powder and said softly: "Let's leave this thing alone. There is 131 here. Let this little guy and Cain solve the matter of 173. As for the 096... wait until Clive
Let’s talk after that guy comes out, I don’t want to meet that guy.”
"You, a guy who dares to ride on SCP-682, are still afraid of it? It seems that I am not the only one who changed after that incident." Bright came to the side of SCP-173 cautiously.
There shouldn't be any surprises if there are eye beans staring at it, but...
Corning stood up, pressed down the baseball cap on his head, walked away, and said: "It doesn't matter who changes; what matters is that I can feel that you are not ready."
...
"I guess you don't want to hear my explanation right now, right?"
Zhou Junli sighed helplessly, looked at Karona who looked like a scumbag, and said in a depressed tone: "I told you, it was just an accident, why do you keep using this kind of behavior?"
Are you looking at me?"
Karona sneered and said disdainfully: "Accident? Not necessarily? I think the Lord seems to be in a very good mood? Do you still need to care about the feelings of us outsiders?"
"..."
Although Zhou Junli didn't know why Karona suddenly looked at him like this, the solutions Ostoria said were indeed a bit strange... Even Zhou Junli couldn't react for a while.
What do those words mean? But since she said there is a solution.
Zhou Junli sighed helplessly, looked at Ostoria next to her again, who seemed to have curiosity written all over her face, and said softly: "What method? If it is a more... method, then just treat it like me.
Didn’t ask anything.”
Ostoria glanced at Zhou Junli as if contemptuously, and said with a sneer: "Are you thinking of something strange again?"
Zhou Junli rolled his eyes at Ostoria without saying anything, and said softly: "If you have a way..."
"You go, you go." Ostoria waved her hand gently, as if rushing Zhou Junli to leave, and said softly: "Just leave this place to me, there are still people waiting for you in the castle.
,By the way...this angel lady probably has something very important to tell you, right?"
Hearing these words, Zhou Junli twitched the corner of his mouth slightly; although this was the truth, it would still be somewhat hurtful to say it directly; after all, no matter what, there was no relationship between him and Hedimus.
can say that......
"Let's go, I still have something very important to discuss with you." Karona looked at Zhou Junli's increasingly weird expression, snorted, and said, "I don't have much time left for you.
, It’s a shame that you still have the time to care about these useless things.”
With that said, Carona gently shook her head and left the place, walking very consciously in the direction of the Quartz Castle; Mandy, who had been silent the whole time, looked at Carona's leaving back and her face full of written marks.
Zhou Junli, who was confused, sighed softly, shook his head and said nothing.
Mandy came to Zhou Junli's side gently, stood on tiptoes in a small arc, patted Zhou Junli's shoulder, and said helplessly: "Lord, I'm going to find Lesa first; but I
I want to remind you... if you have time, please come to the Annas Chamber of Commerce... That's it, farewell."
"???" Zhou Junli looked confused at Ostoria, who was sitting expressionlessly in front of Hedimus, and asked: "Why are the angels here so weird?
"
"I think it might not be their problem."
However, on the way to the castle, Zhou Junli was always thinking about whether Ostoria could find a solution to Hedimus' physical problem, and also thinking about what her words meant.
, Zhou Junli didn’t react until he noticed that Karona had been looking at him with a strange look.
"What's your expression? Also, can you explain to me..." Karona said as she moved her gaze to Arya, who was holding an unknown object in her arms, and said: "
I wonder if the lord can tell me in detail why Miss Arlia has..."
With divinity.
Although Carona did not say everything clearly, Zhou Junli and Allia understood more or less what Carona meant; Allia did not speak, but silently looked at Zhou Junli.
Jun Li seemed to be waiting for him to speak first.
"Uh...actually..."
"One more question, what the hell is that?"
However, Karona didn't give Zhou Junli a chance to speak at all. She gently pointed at the android in the corner that seemed to be slightly dusty. There was a trace of confusion and weirdness in her eyes, and she said, "I don't know when.
There is this...inexplicable alchemical creation."
The one in the corner... It doesn't matter if the alchemy creation doesn't have the logo of the Alchemy Guild. After all, there will always be small workshops that can surpass him in certain technology from some strange places; but what makes Karona feel the most
What was puzzling, or even shocking, was that as an angel, she could actually feel the traces of soul flowing on that guy's body.
What is this intended to do? Create life?
Seeing this scene, Arlia's eyes turned back and forth between Zhou Junli and Carona; then she suddenly nodded clearly and retreated silently to the end. No matter what Carona said, there was no reaction at all.
Did this girl really want to play tricks this time? Zhou Junli suddenly felt that if she didn't tell the truth this time, she would definitely not let him go easily.
"You should know what you are doing now, right? Lord?"
Karona's eyes narrowed slightly, and she walked silently to the side of the android and kept walking in circles. There was even a glimmer of scrutiny in her eyes, but soon Karona saw
The weird...thing in Arya's hand.
Zhou Junli felt Karona's strange gaze. After all, creatures like angels... are very sensitive to the disappearance of any source of life, not to mention this kind of bionic creature that is obviously artificial.
It even has a soul.
"Actually... I think I can explain the reason to you in detail." Zhou Junli said with a dry smile: "After all, you should know that I have some very powerful summoners under my command.
so......"
"That's not what I want to hear." Karona just shook her head gently after hearing these words, looked seriously into Zhou Junli's eyes, and said: "This thing doesn't have any breath of life, but inside her body
But there is a soul, do you know what this means? If some people know this news, even that fake...even the true God will probably punish you."
I don't know why, but after hearing this, Zhou Junli suddenly became less nervous. He looked at Karona and said with a half-smile: "But I think your Annas Principality doesn't seem to object to this situation.
Show up? Or...is this your personal advice to me?"
"you!"
Karona gritted her teeth, slammed the table and said loudly: "Are you listening to what I am saying? Do you still think this is playing house? It is simply impossible for an alchemical creation with a soul...
....”
"Please rest assured, Miss Karona, I will persuade the lord on this issue; and since we dare to do it, we will naturally not be afraid of those...gods you mentioned." At this time, he stood silently.
Alya, who seemed to be watching the excitement, suddenly said, I wonder if it was her imagination, Karona even felt that this girl who exuded divinity seemed to be similar to the "gods" she knew...
...There are some essential differences.
Zhou Junli sighed softly. He could naturally see the dissatisfaction in Karona's eyes and the anger that he ignored her suggestions; but Zhou Junli's eyes once again focused on the things he had surpassed in Allia's hands.
Things look more and more familiar.
"So Alya, these things..."
After hearing Zhou Junli's question, Arlia subconsciously looked at Karona, who had not left here yet and was sitting silently on the sofa watching the excitement; but since Zhou Junli didn't say anything...
Alya could only silently put the things in her hands on the table and said seriously.
"Lord, these are some remnants I found near the Soul Resurrection Tower; but I think...you should have some impression of these things, so I brought them to you." Arlia said as he spoke.
, while confessing Otilia without any hesitation: "Miss Otilia was also present at the time, but I don't know why she didn't tell you these things."
Not only were these things familiar to Zhou Junli, he had touched them countless times before.
Zhou Junli gently placed his hands on the firearms that he was very familiar with; these firearms still retained very primitive manual safety systems; it was probably to prevent equipment failure in such a completely unfamiliar environment.
Bring them in; as soon as Zhou Junli put his hand on them, he felt some very thick and unknown liquid on them.
Zhou Junli skillfully opened the safety, but the inside of the barrel had already been melted into a pool of molten iron. It had already solidified, and no matter how hard he pulled the trigger, there would be no reaction at all.
"You said... Otilia was also present at that time?"
"How long will this guy keep it secret?" Zhou Junli sighed helplessly, gently threw the gun on the table, smiled helplessly, and said: "As you can see, I am a lord.
There is simply no human rights; I don’t dare to care about the group of uncles inside. If you have any questions, you can just ask a few of them."
"I will definitely report the situation truthfully to Lady Fianna."
"..."
Are you still a child?
