Synopsis: Endless Shuttle

Wingate's palms clenched.

"Maybe it's a one-sided call, I don't know very well. During a long period of time, I completed the transformation from an ordinary human to an understanding of the anomalies in their holy city of Nect. It took me a long time to learn Isth's language, and fought back their fear to communicate with them. Surprisingly, these terrifying-looking creatures are very kind, they almost always answer questions, and they are so knowledgeable and knowledgeable..."

Rope seemed to anticipate what Wingate was going to say next, and asked with a frown.

"You asked about the future?"

"...Yes." Wingate sighed: "Humans always hope to control the future that does not belong to them. At the end, I finally couldn't help asking about the future, and the Yis are also very good. answered me."

""The future is meaningless, your world will collapse". "

"That's the answer the Iss gave me," Wingate said.

"I was so desperate at the time. I had a wife and children, and I was looking forward to the safe growth of future generations. The absurd phenomenon of world destruction, which only appeared in novels, was placed in front of me who was unprepared, young I was almost mad. I immediately asked them how to avoid the destruction of the world, but it was such a simple question, and the kind Iss were no longer willing to answer anyway."

"I was not reconciled, so I walked into Nect's big library and frantically searched for all the information that could help me. In it, I learned all kinds of knowledge beyond human technology, the multiverse and the secrets of evil gods, but always There are no words to change the destruction of this world. In the end, I reach out to the core knowledge of the Yiths."

--seek death.

Hearing Wingate's words, Rope only had these two words in his mind.

The great race of Yis is kind in the Cthulhu mythology, but it is different when they come into contact with the core knowledge of the race. Yisi is very taboo to talk about the "future", and they will not be kind enough to open their homes to foreigners. Secret door.

Do you really think that Iss, who beat the flying polyp to the north, is some Virgin tribe?

"After that, technically I succeeded. I succeeded in seeing a way to avoid the destruction of the world."

Wingate smiled wryly.

"But I was also cursed by the Iss at that time. Except for the coming of the world's collapse or preventing the world's collapse, they made me old but did not allow me to die, and they did not allow even the slightest peace of mind. Driven by this curse , I can only keep moving closer to the direction of "stopping the world from collapsing" according to the information in my mind, I am tired of running around and gradually become crazy.After my wife, sons and daughters all died because of my curse, I realized what a big mistake I had made, but it was too late anyway, so I could only continue to move forward in pain. "

"Further, it was a boring experience with the SCP Foundation. It seems that for the sake of protecting human beings, they helped me regain my sanity and thinking. I used the technology I learned in Necter to work for them... Well, Your Excellency is right. Shouldn't this be of any interest?"

"I'm only interested in 'the way to avoid the destruction of the world'. "

He stood up and stared straight at Wingate.

"Tell me how the world collapses, and then tell me how to avoid the collapse of the world, and I can help you relieve the pain that has spread for a hundred years."

"I don't know how the world collapsed, but what I saw from the "future" at that time was like a blurred vision of countless squares superimposed. "

Wingate said regretfully.

"However, I probably know a little bit about how to stop the world from collapsing."

"What is it?"

"It's you, Your Excellency Rope." Wingate said earnestly: "I saw you, you can stop this world from collapsing. That's why I came here from Europe and chose to wait in agony. You will be there for me. The responsible area appears."

"..."

The blood surged, and Rope's brain was a little dizzy.

He forcibly suppressed the urge to lift the table and beat the old man.

"Of course I have to stop it, because that's what I have to do!"

Rope said through gritted teeth.

"But until now I don't know how the collapse will happen. Thank you so much for your useless information!"

"Uh...I'm not finished yet."

Rope took a deep breath.

"...Hurry up, before I can suppress my anger, Mr. Pesri!"

"The catastrophe of the world that is not even recorded in SCP-152's "Book of Doomsday", the sporadic clues I have seen on how to stop the collapse, are all recorded in this book. "

Wingate said, and clicked on the cover of the book.

"It is yours, Your Excellency the Great Mystic, I hope it will help you."

Say no sooner rather than later.

Rope took the ancient book angrily, ready to open it to take a look.

- Bang!

The moment the black-haired youth just opened the cover, the whole room shook violently.

The lights flickered on and off, and after a while the emergency lighting system was activated.

"...Aren't your buildings earthquake-proof?"

Wingate covered his forehead like a headache and said in an almost difficult voice.

"I think it's probably not an earthquake, Your Excellency Rope..."

As if to prove Wingate's words, a faint roar like a dragon's roar could be heard faintly from outside the door.

SCP-682, "Immortal Lizard" got out of trouble again.
