“But for some reason, this mysterious agent who ran around with the old man… But it was not affected by the “unfortunate force” of CP-1440. “】

At this moment, the picture on the screen suddenly changed, and it turned to a gray-haired old man. “】

At the same time, that eerie narration sounded again. “】

[“SCP-1440, also known as “The Old Man Who Came from Nowhere.”] “】

“This person looks eighty or ninety years old, and it seems that he may die at any time. “】

“But 50 years have passed since SCP-1440 was noticed by the Foundation! But he showed no signs of aging. “】

[“According to the Foundation’s observations, as long as the old man is associated with any human, or man-made object, such as a city … Residence…… Building…… Wait for contact, and terrible abnormal changes will come! “】

“Long-term contact with any human or man-made object will cause all kinds of terrible destruction around this old man! “】

[“Until it touches his man-made objects or human beings… Until it is completely destroyed! “】

“Humans, buildings, vehicles…”】

“Everything related to people around this old man will eventually be wasted…” Ruins and ruins… Skeleton. “】

“But SCP-1440 itself, and the bag he was carrying, would not have been damaged in any way. “】

“In the bag, there was also a badly worn pack of playing cards, and a small glass. “】

“This strange situation, as if, someone deliberately wants him to survive! “】

[“In other words, this old man can only live in the deep mountains and forests far from human civilization, otherwise… He is a living disaster star! “】

“SCP-1440 is well aware of its catastrophic nature and will try to avoid any human contact to prevent further tragedies. “】

“But I don’t know why, this old man seems to be suffering from some very special road dementia. “】

[“No matter how hard SCP-1440 tries to avoid human civilization, he will always end up running to towns and villages, causing all kinds of terrible destruction and doom. “】

“That immortal old man is as if he was cursed by death. “】

“And the strangest thing is that 50 years ago, it was not the foundation that found this old man, but he took the initiative to find the foundation! “】

“At that time, the old man approached a staff member of the foundation and asked the foundation … Destroy him completely. “】

“Because… He couldn’t do that himself. “】

At that time, the foundation held the elderly man in a nearby shelter. “】

“In hindsight, it turned out to be a huge mistake. “】

“It didn’t take long for the shelter to be completely destroyed by a sudden disaster. “】

“The foundation not only lost more than 100 staff members, but also 6 SCPs were destroyed in this disaster. “】

Since then, SCP-1440 has not shown any intention of being an enemy of the Foundation, nor has it resisted the Foundation’s containment of him. “】

“But due to his catastrophic nature, all of the foundation’s containment actions failed, and caused terrible loss of life and property. “】

“After several painful lessons, the foundation finally came to the conclusion that it could not be related to this old man. “】

From then on, the Foundation began observing SCP-1440 from a safe distance, attempting to predict his direction and guide SCP-1440 away from human settlements. “】

For more than 50 years, the Foundation has never given up on contacting this old man and obtaining intelligence from him. “】

“Through these contacts and interviews, the Foundation has gained a great deal of affection from SCP-1440… Report. “】

“Unfortunately, because the old man’s doom ability is too difficult to fathom, after many interviews, the results obtained by the foundation have been buried by the ensuing disasters. “】

Fortunately, at the time of the Foundation’s fourth attempt to interview SCP1440, the transcript was saved on a remote server located outside the base. “】

“And just after this old man came to this base, all kinds of strange things began to happen one after another. “】

“Many people reported feeling severe headaches and nausea. “】

“Over the next two days, three of the four water purification filters in the base were damaged. “】

“Soon after, one of the base’s hangars collapsed, killing multiple pilots. “】

“Next, a doctor who was originally in very good health. But suddenly he died of complete failure of both kidneys and lungs. “】

[“In this interview, SCP-1440 first praised the Foundation… He kept trying to contain himself so that he would not continue to cause casualties and injuries. “】

At the same time, he recognized that the Foundation could not end his suffering. “】

Immediately afterwards, the old man said a very amazing sentence. “】

“For your own good, you’d better let me go quickly.”] “】

“I’ve seen the first brother of death standing behind you, you better move faster. “】

In previous interviews, the old man had already mentioned these three “brothers.” “】

This time, he went into a little more detail. “】

“The three of them are different, but similar in some places. “】

“They are cruel, they are all vengeful, they all hold grudges… For a long time. They are the cause of my misfortune and the cause of your impending calamity. “】

And just as he said this, the mysterious old man seemed to look at… Behind the Foundation Ph.D., who was interviewing him, it was as if something was standing behind him. “】

Next, the old man began to warn the doctor again: “]

[“The second brother is also here, time is very urgent, hurry up and let me go!”] Otherwise, I can’t guarantee your safety! “】

“In fact, it’s probably too late now. “】

But the doctor in charge of the interview refused and asked about the old man’s third brother. “】

The old man sighed helplessly: “】

“The third brother never shows up. Because he is more cruel than his brothers, because he knows that only his presence can set me free! “】

“I spent countless hours looking for him, trying to take me away from him… And what his brother won there was back, but he never gave me that chance. “】

At this time, the old man looked at the doctor and said that the second brother had put his hand on his shoulder, and it was too late for him. “】

[“Hey…”

With a gentle sigh, the old man said regretfully: “]

“Before you die, my poor child, I will give you a word of advice. “】

“If you are ready to challenge death with a card game for the sake of your own life, then don’t do one thing. “】

“What’s going on?” “”】

The Doctor asked suspiciously. “】

[“The old man’s face showed a miserable sadness:”]

【”You definitely don’t want to win…”】

At the moment when the old man spoke, the black device that was the final safety device under this base suddenly started, and all safety protocols and fault protection devices failed. “】

[“Boom! “】

【With the rise of a mushroom cloud, the entire foundation base instantly vanished! “】

“In the nuclear heart of the explosion, the unfortunate doctor was even gasified. “】

“But a week later, more than 3,000 kilometers from the blast site, the Foundation found a person. “】

【“SCP-1440。 “】

The old man, who did not even have a single bruise on his body, was carrying the small bag on his back and continuing his journey in the wilderness. “】

After years of research, the Foundation can finally confirm that this old man seems to have won in a gamble against death. “】

And the object of his game is called “brother of death.” “】

“In myths and legends around the world, the Foundation has found traces of these three brothers. “】

[“They are called the God of Death, Hades, King Yanra, King Jizo…”]

“Moreover, they are far more than three Grim Reaper who collect the souls of the dead. “】

In fact they are responsible for creating everything in the world, governing all reality, and determining when any part of reality reaches its inevitable end. “】

There are even ancient texts that claim that the “brothers of death” created the concept of creation itself, which can reduce nothingness to nothing! “】

“It is said that these three dead brothers built the eternal house of the dead in the middle level of the tree of knowledge, creating three lands of the dead, namely the land of valor, the land of glory, and the land of mercy. “】

“Even if all things come to an end, these three great lands will remain forever. “】

“In the deepest legends, the foundation has even found some incredible words. “】

“The brother of death even once provoked the Crimson King head-on, and called him by his name. “】

[“Harak! “】

[“That taboo notoriety! “】

[“In front of the brother of death, the invincible Crimson King seems completely powerless, and he can’t even challenge him! “】

In the live broadcast room.

“What? The Grim Reaper who created everything?”

Seeing this somewhat strange concept, almost everyone in the live broadcast room was stunned.

Isn’t the Grim Reaper supposed to be in charge of the dead, how can it still be related to “creation”?
