Star Railway: Building a Foundation from the Beginning

Just as countless players in the galaxy are engaged in the big game of the Foundation.

You want to get a glimmer of the faint possibility of becoming a reality bender, or you want to piece together the whole picture of the three anomalous theories.

In front of the eyes of all players, the title of the Foundation's live stream appeared at the same moment.

[The Foundation's Top 100 Containment Files Released!]

[Ninetieth place: Containment-3999, I am in all things]

[File Name: The Sublime Named Tarolan]

The light screen, which had been silent for a long time and was thought to not light up again for a short time, also lit up at the same moment.

"It's started, it's started, are there any friends who have tried Containment-3999?"

"Nope. "

"I tried, but I didn't even see the shadow of 3999. "

"It's not 3999, but I don't see the corresponding containment either. "

A departure from the usual practice of first the containment file.

After the title faded, a faint bright spot followed.

The next moment, the screen was filled with Foundation hallways.

White ceilings, white walls, white lights.

Except for white, only white, the promenade is as silent as death.

After the deflating sound of an airtight door opening, a burst of irregular footsteps rang out in the hallway.

After a few moments, several researchers in white coats and a team of heavily armed agents stepped out of the corner at the end of the hallway.

The look is relaxed and the pace is casual.

"Site-118, Gamma Wing, Keter-Class Containment Containment-2006 Containment Chamber Routine Inspection Completed, No Issues. "

"Then it's the turn of the dear Beta Wing. "

Walking in the center of the line, the invisible guard of the agents, whispered to himself and ticked the checklist.

"Doctor, why do you add such a long prefix before 2006?"

"Habit, or rather, rigor?" the doctor folded the folder and looked at the assistant.

"There are many types of containment that can affect cognition, such as those with antimemetic hazards, that can erase all information about them in the world. "

"Is there such a hazard?" the assistant was also stunned.

"Well, yes. The doctor nodded, "Quite an unbelievable ability." "

"But what's even more bizarre is that I can't even remember where I learned about this trait. "

When the assistant heard this, his eyes widened slightly, "Could it be that we have been affected by antimemes?"

The doctor exhaled softly, "I don't know, so I'll check every room in Site-118...... In case there is a real mismatch between the list and the containment chamber. "

Seeing that the doctor's face suddenly became more solemn, the assistant suddenly came up with a joke.

"If there really is an antimemetics department in the Foundation, all of the people in it will either be rich or working for the administrator for nothing. "

"Huh?" The doctor looked puzzled, his brain circuits had not yet been connected to the assistant.

"You think, if you remember that there is such a hazard as antimemetics, there must be an antimemetics department in the Foundation. "

"But according to the rules of antimemetics, people in the antimemetics department forget their identities again and again, forgetting their experiences. "

"So, they've either been overpaid, or they've never been paid, and they think they're on their first day with the Foundation. "

"Then they're a little miserable...... the doctor commented casually, but stopped abruptly halfway through and looked at the assistant with a look of consternation.

"Wait a minute, why is there an extra road here?"

Looking at the inexplicable passage in front of them, everyone's face was extra dignified.

- Are they really suffering from antimemetic hazards?

There are 24 underground floors throughout Site-118, excluding the surface floors used for camouflage.

The interior is divided by pseudo-Riemannian manifolds, and the site is divided into Beta, Gamma, and Delta wings, each with 6 levels.

Each wing operates independently, managed by different department heads, and is connected to each other by a teaching level located above ground.

Not long after they entered the Beta Wing Zone, they discovered a passage that shouldn't exist, and something was very wrong.

"Contact the Director, we're in trouble. The doctor said.

Seeing this, it dawned on players who had chosen Containment-3999 as their first gaming experience.

"I said I couldn't find 3999, I had to go around Site-118 first and find a corridor that wasn't on the record. "

"Hey, the field staff that the old lady applied for directly are now in the wilderness a hundred kilometers away from Site-118...... it, delete it and reopen it!"

It is generally accepted that none of the containment objects in the Foundation game have been contained.

- Either buried in some wilderness, or mixed in with human society.

In short, it is impossible to be on a Foundation site.

"Antimemetic harm, though...... Does this sound interesting, to be able to erase all of other people's memories of yourself, or is it impossible to recognize yourself except yourself?"

"No, according to this Doctor with a maximum clearance level 3, an entity with antimemetic hazards is supposed to be like an imperceptible black hole of information - its existence can only be speculated through its interactions with the world around it, and it can never be directly observed. "

"I don't know how this kind of containment is restored in the game, so it's impossible to delete our memories, right?"

“...... It's hard to say, I can only say it's hard to say. "

......

When MTF support arrived, the Doctor had just completed a third data search, and was extremely confident that there should be no structure ahead.

Then, he saw the task force agents who had arrived in a hurry.

"No one is trying to get in, is there?"

"Of course, we don't actively violate the rules. The Doctor nodded to the Task Force Leader, "All of them are here, no less, no more. "

As he spoke, the doctor handed the captain the list of items to inspect the Keter-class containment chambers.

"Yes, everything is right. After checking them in turn, the captain handed the list to the doctor.

"Alright, we'll take over next, and you guys stay put. "

With that, the captain led the team into the path that should not exist.

Pale lights fell overhead, casting clusters of shadows at the agents' feet, like a nightmare of countless overlapping limbs.

No one knew what was waiting for them.

The Beta wing is the floor with the highest beryllium bronze content on the site, and is one of the most stable in reality, stable to the point where reality enters a state of hyperstability.

What would be the anomaly that can break through the super-stable reality?

"Is it a divine entity? or is it some unknown supreme divinity?"

The captain guessed slightly pessimistically that if it was really these two, even if they brought several reality anchors, it would be in vain.

In the depths of this corridor leading to uncharted territory, the air is filled with tension that transcends reality.

And as if to confirm the uneasiness in the captain's heart, at this moment, a slight humming sound gradually became clear and audible, attracting everyone's attention.

When the humming sound was captured by the agents, the agents immediately clinged to the wall, the shield guards unfurled their special shields, and the rest of the people bent their legs slightly, pulled the gun line, and moved forward in an orderly manner.

Immediately afterward, the captain heard footsteps, sounding like they were some other agents.

- But no one had entered this place before.

Everyone felt their hearts unconsciously speed up and their breathing was short.

The agents' pupils dilated, and the muscles under their uniforms became excited.

The next moment, they rushed out of the corner of the corridor, and the shield guard instantly set up a huge shield, and the muzzle of the black hole poked out from his side and behind him, pointing directly at the target in front of him

- Four guards having lunch.

Undoubtedly, they were unsuspecting, and they never imagined that they would one day be targeted by the agents.

One of them, until the task force angled the salvo, had his hand shoved the sandwich into his mouth. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Under the captain's puzzled eyes, he swallowed a large mouthful of food by the neck of his neck, and then slowly put down the sandwich, raised his hands, and slowly lay on the ground.

Looking at this scene, both players and viewers couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Why is the atmosphere so tense, everyone eats, drinks, plays, and dances. "

"Guard: Aminos!"

But there are also those who perceive a hint of disobedience. []

"In other words, in the minds of these guards, they should guard this containment chamber?"

"Shhh...... That seems to be true, but the question is, do they really know what kind of containment chamber this is?"

......

"Hell, this is undoubtedly Containment-3999's containment chamber. "

The captain looked at the name tag on the wall outside the room.

The alloy plaque has the words Containment Item-3999 clearly on it, the Foundation logo, and the Keter class.

"However, neither the Site-118 database nor the Foundation's master database have a corresponding containment for this number. "

Several armed guards sat on the sidelines, "watched" by heavily armed task force semen, nodding their heads like chickens pecking rice.

It's fine, but don't judge them as anomalous.

Although all information has been verified, the fact that Containment-3999 does not exist" is the biggest anomaly.

And they're guarding a "non-existent" anomalous containment cell, which is too evil.

"Yes, but we can't really remember when we started taking charge of this containment chamber. "One person trembled.

The other person was about the same, looking at the muzzle of the black hole:

"We seem to have forgotten a lot of things, maybe, maybe, possibly the effects of 3999?"

Just then, the agent in charge of the investigation came to the captain's side.

He whispered:

"Captain, no containment was found inside, but a body was found 0 ......."

"Corpses?" the captain also lowered his voice, puzzled and uneasy, "why are there corpses?" "

This thing is strange from head to toe.

"Look. "

The team members showed the video taken by the drone to the team leader.

Enter the airtight containment chamber and open the acid-resistant baffle, below which is a bottomless shaft.

The drone went all the way down, photographing a realistic anchor at intervals on either side of the shaft - and they all exploded at the moment.

Literally exploded, leaving only part of the charred shell hanging from the shaft wall.

Looking at the damaged reality anchor, the captain's expression gradually became solemn.

The current situation often means a worse possibility -

A Keter-class containment object has breached containment!

The captain suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and continued to watch.

But all the way down, except for the exploded reality anchor, there is only the exploded reality anchor, and there is no other situation.

As the altitude decreases, the drone approaches the bottom of the shaft, and the camera captures a vague humanoid figure.

So, the drone flew straight towards the figure.

It was a corpse, motionless.

He slept there in a white coat, his expression calm and serene, as if he had a sweet dream.

The captain felt an inexplicable worry, urging him to go down and take a look.

"Action! Action!"

A few members of the team were ordered to stay outside the containment chamber and told them to inform the Site Director of the task force's follow-up and send it to the O5 Council for filing.

The captain immediately led his team down the rope.

The reason for such action is naturally not the unprovoked impulse.

Since neither Site-118 nor the main database had any information about SCP-3999, they would have to look for clues from the place where SCP-3999 once contained.

As the rope continued downward, the captain saw the long-dead researcher.

"Foundation Level 3 Researcher, Talloran. "

The captain read the contents of the badge and found the corresponding record in the personnel directory of Site-118.

However, for the record, Researcher Talloran disappeared almost immediately upon his assignment to Site-118.

Then, he turned his gaze to Talloran's hand.

A mobile phone lies quietly on the ground, with a faint glow on the display.

The captain put on his gloves, picked up the phone, and the moment he saw the contents, he chose to put the phone back.

None of them.

The text of the mobile phone is clearly displayed

Containment-3999.

The picture freezes at that simple string of characters, and the picture fades to black.

Immediately afterward, the file of Containment-3999 slowly emerged.

[Containment: I am in all things]

[Item No: Containment-3999]

[Hazard Level: Neutralized.]

[Special Containment Procedures:]

[Containment-3999 is contained in a Keter-class airtight containment chamber at Site-118.] 】

[Four armed guards have been found to have been stationed outside the containment chamber.] The interior of the containment chamber consists of a shaft up to one kilometer deep, covered with acid-resistant baffles. 】

[The walls are equipped with Scranton Reality Anchors every 30 meters3.5, and they appear to have exploded violently. 】

[There is little other information left regarding containment procedures for Containment-3999.] 】

【Project Description:】

[Apparently, Containment-3999 was once a Keter-class object, possibly an entity, and it is unclear what other anomalous properties Containment-3999 possesses.] 】

[Containment-3999 containment chamber was discovered during a routine inspection of all Keter-class containment areas at Site-118.] 】

[The Information Security Management Department (RAISA) has confirmed that there is no record of Containment-3999 in the database.] 】

[All information regarding the anomalous properties of Containment-3999 is inferred from the structure of the containment chamber and the documents recovered from its interior. 】

[The four armed guards assigned to monitor Containment-3999 have significant memory loss and are unable to determine how they came into charge of Containment-3999.]

Target. 】

[The body of Level 3 Researcher Talloran was found at the bottom of Containment-3999's containment chamber, and Researcher Talloran disappeared almost immediately upon assignment to Site-118.] 】

[A standard Foundation cell phone was found on him, containing a text suspected to be Containment-3999 containment procedures, but the text and content were full of errors and completely inconsistent with the [REDACTED] language and format used by the Foundation.] 】

[It has since been largely determined that Researcher Taroran is assigned to Containment Item-3999, which has powerful reality-altering properties. 】

[At some point, it breached containment, causing a CK-class reality restructuring crisis or ZK-class reality end apocalypse, and Researcher Talloran prevented and reversed the event at his own cost.] 】。
