Chapter 295
The SCR Foundation might not be the only containment organization in this world, but it was the oldest and most powerful containment organization.
Since the beginning of time, they had taken in many anomalies, some of which had been analyzed by others and were no longer anomalies, but even more of them had been taken in.
Even many members of the E5 council didn't know what S-1-1 was, so the oldest and most powerful anomaly to date was S-1-2 [REDACTED].
S-1-2 was an anomaly that existed in a place that didn't exist, in other words, it didn't exist in this world.
It was for this reason that every time S-1-2 was used, an anomaly that didn't exist in this world would appear in this world, causing the timeline to change every time.
In the SCR Foundation's records, they had only managed to stop the timeline from changing three times, one of which was only a half-success, causing a certain religion to rise to power.
But before these three times, the timeline of this world would have changed even more, as the corresponding information could be found from certain anomalies.
For example, the Demon Goat seemed to be a product of a certain timeline change, while S-1-2 clearly stated that it alone had caused a total of 21 timeline changes, so in this world, S-1-2 was also known as the non-existent [REDACTED] 22.
"No one knows what the original appearance of this world was. Perhaps there were still anomalies that represented them, or perhaps even those symbols no longer exist" In front of the containment room, the tall director of Site S1 was carrying a large black box on his back, his thoughts a bit scattered.
In other timelines, perhaps he was a lizardman, perhaps he was a destitute beggar, perhaps he was a D-class personnel, there were simply too many 'ifs'. What the other timelines were like was already too difficult to observe, the only thing he could do was make a few deductions from the anomalies that were related to them.
After inputting 42 passwords, Site S1's containment room slowly opened. There was nothing inside, because [REDACTED] 22 didn't exist in this world, it was a synonym for the Underworld.
After taking the corresponding serum, Site S1's containment room continued to scatter. This was a necessary preparation to obtain [REDACTED] 22.
A World Line Shift was when the current world replaced the previous world, while a small portion of the previous World Line would leave behind something that symbolized that World Line. Sometimes, these things could even cause the World Line Shift, causing the previous World Line to reappear.
For example, when the Lizardman's Skull had been downgraded to B-6-13, when it was still an A-rank, it went out of control once, causing a small-scale Timeline Warp, allowing the Lizardmen that only existed in the previous Timeline to appear in this world.
Their numbers were very small, but their technology was much more advanced than that of the current humans. Due to the Timeline Shift, a certain species of humans on Earth had turned into a hybrid of lizardmen and humans. The lizardmen controlled the hybrids, established the Witch Cooperation Association, and then used economic means to control human society.
Their goal was to make humans kill each other, reducing the number of humans in the process. In the end, they would enslave this world, causing this timeline to change once again, allowing the lizardmen's timeline to return.
That was the SCR Foundation's most tragic containment campaign, the two World Wars were also related to it. Through economic manipulation, the few remaining lizardmen became the supreme leaders of a certain country. Many famous people were also lizardmen in disguise, and even the SCR Foundation had quite a few lizardman hybrids mixed in.
It was the last month of 1999, the lizardmen's scheme was close to succeeding. Many countries were already under their control, and World War III was about to erupt. The ignorant humans would kill each other to give the World Line Master position to the lizardmen.
Fortunately, the existence of the Lizardmen had been exposed at that time, and the SCR Foundation had used the S-1-4 Genocide Warrant to kill all of the Lizardmen, stopping their conspiracy. Unfortunately, S-1-4
Unfortunately, S-1-4 and Death Note were the same, requiring the target's detailed information to be activated, otherwise the SCR Foundation would have already used S-1-4 to eliminate Negri.
Furthermore, due to the effects of S-1-4, the Lizardmen's Skull, the symbol of the lizardmen anomaly, no longer had the ability to alter the timeline. Its remaining abilities could only create mindless lizardmen monsters, which was why its sequence was reduced to B-6-13.
Of course, there weren't many timelines like the lizardmen. Most of the timelines of the past had already been destroyed, leaving only twisted remains that continued to sink into the ground. These remains of past timelines had gathered to form the other side of the current world, the World of Darkness.
[REDACTED] represented the World of Darkness, which was why it represented objects that didn't exist in this world.
Up until now, quite a few anomalies had been brought out of the World of Darkness through [REDACTED], such as C-4-27, the Old Granny of Bone Ash, and C-4-32, the Vampire Flag.
[REDACTED] was a secret among secrets, and the World of Darkness was the same. In fact, there shouldn't be more than 10 people in this world who knew about the existence of the World of Darkness, and the director of Site S1 was one of them.
As the information regarding the World of Darkness in his mind spread further and further, even the containment chamber began to show an abnormal reaction. The World of Darkness was formed from the remains of past timelines, and these things shouldn't have existed as the timeline changed, so the people of this world shouldn't be able to observe the existence of the World of Darkness. Even S-2-5's Omniscient Eye, which was connected to this world's information sea, didn't have any description of the World of Darkness.
To obtain [REDACTED], one needed information regarding the World of Darkness, but this world couldn't observe the existence of the World of Darkness, so it was quite intriguing how the information came to be in the first place. It was said to be related to S-1-1, but as for what S-1-1 was, not even the members of the E5 council of the SCR Foundation's Supreme Council knew, as there was no information regarding that thing.
Inside the containment chamber, a large number of indescribable things were moving about. The faint image of a straight sword that looked like a greatsword appeared inside the containment chamber, hovering between existence and non-existence. At this point, the director of Site S1 had already closed his eyes, no longer paying attention to this sword, otherwise, just looking at it would cause him to shed tears.
Due to the fact that it was a lost timeline, it contained the resentment and sorrow of countless people, so when [REDACTED] 22 once again appeared in this world, the sorrow would affect everyone who saw it.
Suppressing the sorrow in his heart and continuing his scattered thoughts, the director of Site S1 put down the black box on his back.
A-1-3, codenamed Schrodinger's black box. Anything that was placed inside and taken out would appear in one of two states: existing or non-existing, and this state was purely a matter of luck.
If [REDACTED] 22 was non-existent, then when it was placed inside A-1-3 and taken out, there would only be one result: existing.
