Chapter 285
Within an unknown corner of the world, the Devil Goat was furiously glaring at Negri, desperately using its horns to push away anything around it.
The dome was a Space-Time phenomenon that Negri had created after understanding the aspect of reality. Although it looked like a layer of glass to a normal person, its essence was actually a Space-Time barrier that covered a certain aspect.
If certain objects were absorbed into the barrier, they would appear as a map on the surface of the dome, but in truth, they were stuck in the aspect of Space-Time.
"Its essence is very powerful, as if it represents a certain world" Negri was carefully observing the goat. However, despite how powerful these creatures were, they were only powerful because of their unique characteristics. Once their unique characteristics were stripped away, they would be nothing more than the most ordinary of lifeforms.
For this reason, this power was both powerful and inflexible, because even their users themselves didn't understand the principles behind their power.
They couldn't use the power of their unique characteristics flexibly, so after a period of observation and research, the strengths and weaknesses of these anomalies could be discovered. As long as humans chose the right method to deal with them, they would be able to take control of these anomalies with their weak bodies.
This was a common problem for most anomalies, and this goat was no exception. It had a few powerful characteristics, but it was essentially a slightly smarter animal. By grasping its unique characteristics, even a few normal people in a car would be able to force it into a dead end.
Unlike the three supernatural creatures that were related to a certain [REDACTED] S-class anomaly, the Devil Goat wasn't related to any anomaly at all.
From what Negri had observed from his aspect of existence, the Devil Goat's power in this world was only manifested through this goat.
The power of its unique characteristics was tightly bound to the goat, which resulted in its indestructible body.
Negri's germs began to infect the goat's body, but under the effects of its unique characteristics, the process of infection was abnormally slow.
Golden patterns began to appear on the goat's body, turning it into golden particles that drifted around.
The parts of the world that had been infected by Negri were now being supplied to Negri. Countless soul chains were spreading from indiscernible angles to every corner of the goat's body. Once they were locked onto, this part of the world would be under Negri's complete control, at the same time, this also meant that they no longer had any secrets to Negri, as he only needed to spend a certain amount of particles to recreate them.
On the surface of the dome outside, the goat's image became stranger and stranger. First, its hair disappeared, and then its skin began to fester. It was as if something invisible was decomposing the goat.
"Has A-6-12 been obtained by the enemy as well?" In the unknown lands, the E5 Parliament was discussing the failure of the S-class containment this time.
They were currently in a pitch-black space. This pitch-black space was actually some sort of anomaly that could be set to not display certain information in this area, so no one could see the faces of the others and could only hear the modified voices.
Through this method, they were able to ensure that the information of the E5 council members would not be leaked. At the same time, through a special method, the information of certain objects could only be displayed here. Because of that, other than a few special S-class anomalies, most of their files could only be seen here.
"Although the other party is a germ, its lifeform clearly surpasses that of humans. Many things that are anomalies to us are nothing but ordinary creations to it. We have to admit that it is a lifeform that surpasses us"
"That's right, sending out anomalies with obvious weaknesses is the same as aiding the enemy right now."
"Therefore, I propose to use S-1-3."
"Seconded."
"Seconded."
…
As time slowly passed, the goat sticker on the dome had become a restricted image.
The goat was nothing but a normal goat, Negri had used his germs to sever the connection between it and its characteristics, causing its body to be transformed a little.
Until the very end, the entire goat had vanished without a trace, leaving behind only a mass of eerie black liquid.
The mere existence of this black liquid gave off an ominous feeling. The sticker that was left on the dome was clearly a mass of black liquid, but the SCR Foundation members who stayed behind to observe it all felt an indescribable sense of disgust.
And this was only a one-sided observation from the sticker. If they were in Negri's current position, their minds would most likely be quickly corrupted, then mutated into a low-level anomaly, or turned into a sacrificial offering that would make this eerie phenomenon even more powerful.
"There are too many negative emotions contained in this thing, what kind of situation would cause such a level of negative emotions to manifest?" Negri observed the mass of black substance, which was still squirming, trying to escape from Negri's control.
Although Negri wouldn't be able to control it for the time being, it was actually quite simple to prevent it from escaping.
"A completely warped characteristic, has it lost all rationality?" Negri's gaze swept through the dome, finally falling onto a ruined tire of a car. He made a small gap for the mass of black liquid to quickly move through space and fall onto the tire.
The originally ordinary tire instantly stood up and began to slowly roll on the ground, becoming a new anomaly. However, the surface of the tire was still flickering with a golden light from time to time, it was clear that the infection was still ongoing. Perhaps using this anomaly would be able to speed up the analysis of the anomaly and the rate of infection.
"According to my observations, there are currently three types of anomalies" Negri began to conclude his observations of anomalies during this period of time. The first type were natural phenomena that were currently incomprehensible to humanity, such as the Mad Ladle Killer, which was a manifestation of human pressure. The second type were anomalies born from the world's Authority, such as the Omniscient Eye. The third type were the goat, a negative substance that didn't belong to this world, but was still closely related to it.
Once this negative substance infects anything in this world, it would form new anomalies. The nature of these anomalies was extremely warped, which made them extremely hard to infect and could only be slowly analyzed.
"After this test, it's about time for me to show my true strength." Negri recalled that the goat's attack this time was only a test by the SCR Foundation. The goat's serial number was A-6-12, which meant that there were at least 6 A-class containment bases, each of which contained at least 12 anomalies.
In other words, from the information he currently knew, the SCR Foundation had at least 72 A-class anomalies. Including the special containment rooms that couldn't be moved, the total number of A-class anomalies should have exceeded the 100 mark.
Combined with even more BC-class anomalies, as well as the particularly powerful S-class anomalies, the SCR Foundation's strength couldn't be underestimated.
Furthermore, the SCR Foundation wasn't the only containment organization in this world, there were also the governments of various countries, as well as the private containment organizations of certain financial groups, as well as the holders of anomalies in the wild. Once Negri officially began to infect the world, he would definitely face intense resistance from them.
