Chapter 16 The Back of the Abyss Chasing the Light
"Well, four hundred years ago, someone took out a stone slab from the supreme divine hanged god. He said that he was in the mystery of Arakada. The man took out the stone slab and died after taking it out. How did it get it and why it was brought out? No one knows. In subsequent research, it was found that some people, as long as they touched the stone slab according to a certain ritual, they would enter the land of the faced god with six-story halls. There, they could complete the "upstory" and obtain the powerful surreal ability they gave. It was even rumored that they could realize the faced god there by reaching the sixth level of the highest level."
"At first we thought that if we wanted to enter such a space, we could only pass through that stone slab. Many human groups broke out in war to control it, but in the long years later, people gradually discovered more traces left by gods. Not only this stone slab, but almost every known "supreme divinity" left a unique "relics" in this world. While these relics themselves have diverse functions, they can also select their respective believers so that people can enter their six-story temples. Human faith is divided by these relics, such as the supreme divinity and gatekeepers that are generally believed in by the Foundation, the supreme divinity and the broken god McCann, and the Adabos believed in by the Holy Flesh Sect."
"We call these people surrealists, also called them light chasers," Liang Yuan said in a deep voice: "It is said that this name is given because light symbolizes these gods who guide the future of mankind. The end of this path can meet the gods who give us these powers, and even become part of the gods."
"Although I have seen the indescribable sacred countless times, I have always been skeptical about the statement of God in front of me. If there are really gods in this world, then for them, the first thing that should be erased and reshaped should be this smoky world."
"Maybe gods will also have some hobbies and considerations that humans cannot understand."
"It is indeed possible." Liang Yuan sighed. For the person in his position, perhaps only gods would make him want to sigh.
"And some of the people who become surrealists, or most of them, will eventually become marginal people who may be extremely harmful to humans because of the high Hume index." Liang Yuan said.
"What is the Hume index..." Zhou Wangjing touched his head, and he felt like an uneducated novices.
Sure enough, the ignorant old man gave him a thunderous thunder.
"Idiot, I don't know anything and I'm still pushing into the foundation!" Mr. Liang sighed and couldn't help but persuade: "I advise you to be honest with Liang Yan..."
"Okay, okay! Master, stop thinking!" Zhou Wangjing couldn't help but cover his ears and cried.
Regarding the experience of Liang Xiangguo’s three rounds of care in the morning, I’m afraid that Zhou Wangjing, the only one in the world, has received such treatment.
Liang Yuan sighed deeply, and he picked up the glass in his hand, closed his hands, and the glass broke into fine, powder-like residue, and then spread it on the table.
"The surrealist is a group of beings that transcend normal reality, and the so-called Hume is the unit that measures the degree of reality. We compare reality to a plate of sand. It is not necessarily evenly distributed in the space. The higher the Hume value in the space where the human body is, the more "reality", the more realism of the human space where the human body is, and vice versa." Liang Yuan said: "In addition to the space where we are, our human body itself is also composed of various reality. Once the index of our own reality exceeds the index of our own reality
With too much space in our area, we will develop a sense of disconnection. We will not only think that we are in a false world, but also guide the original normal reality around us to develop in the direction we expect, and then cause very serious but difficult to discover. We call this situation "self-deification". For them, the so-called six-level temple is no longer important. They think they are already gods, and the gods they once believed will also drive them out of the temple."
"Reality distortionists are trapped in the vortex of ‘self-deification’ and have the existence of Hume, who is higher than the surrounding space. Most of them may be just humans at first, but in situations that they themselves do not realize, they become weird... For example, what you came into contact with that day, scp053."
Zhou Wangjing remembered the little girl that day, and the person in the show also said that she might not even know what she was doing.
For herself, it may be the only one who is a real entity, while others are just ghosts who linger around her and want to hurt her.
"It's not just the reality twister. Basically, every weird person, even a bowl that knows how to cook by itself, has a very high sense of silence. This is also a relatively practical method for humans to observe weirdness."
"The stronger your ability, you will become more and more centered on yourself, and then it will become something similar to a weird person in the eyes of normal people, right?" Zhou Wangjing could understand a little.
"It can be understood that this is also one of the reasons why people reject the SCP Foundation. The SCP Foundation, especially those task force members, are many of them surrealists. They seem to be powerful and lucky god-selected people, but they may also become unlucky people who are out of control in the world at any time." Liang Yuan sighed: "Among the mysterious accidents that break out in the Huangyan Kingdom every year, one-fifth of them are out of control in the foundation. In addition to the spitting of the victims, there are also the execution of their former comrades."
"They pursue the light, and they also lean on the abyss."
To be honest, he actually doesn't hate the foundation. On the contrary, he admires these "stupid" who are moving forward and rushing toward an unfortunate future for a certain belief.
He just sincerely did not want Zhou Wangjing, who was regarded as a grandson, to take such a difficult path.
"But there are people who will not be distorted in the end, right? For example, Mr. Liang, you, my grandfather."
"My Hume index has never been high. I am still on the first floor of the temple. The reason is that although my ability is not weak, I never explore this path, nor have I had any chance to get in touch with more unrealistic opportunities. Every day I remind myself of my insignificance and the greatness of the world, and your grandfather... is not the same as mine."
"no the same?"
"Well, he is a member of the foundation and often comes into contact with non-realistic beings. His Hume index should be very high... In fact, when he was still there, he did mention to me that his Hume index had already reached a very horrifying level."
"Is it because of this that he disappeared?" Zhou Wangjing suddenly thought of this possibility and murmured.
"I don't know, if this is the case, I would be too regretful to that old man." Liang Yuan sighed regretfully.
Most people who become distorted people have bad endings... They are even less human rights in all senses than those born weird.
He really couldn't imagine that a person like Zhou Huanyu would endure being like that. If he really became a distorted reality, he would either make a big fuss in the world... If he didn't do this, he would be no longer in this world.
After the scene was slowed down for a while.
"You said you had locked them in some other world gate, which means they could no longer get out." Prince Kang asked.
"Well, that's the case for the time being."
"temporary?"
"Because we cannot put those projects in the gates of another world for a long time, once the entity inside is disturbed, we cannot predict the consequences ourselves." Wright explained calmly, but his words made people feel desperate. "And what Ash Bukato wanted was the relics of the Supreme God-Scp001 Crimson King that were passed down from generation to generation by the royal family of the Phoenix Flame Kingdom to this day."
"The Crimson Relic will emit some meme signal due to large-scale deaths. This is why Ash used 053 to create chaos and death. This thing was always under the supervision of Li Shouhou, but fortunately he discovered the problem early and immediately transferred it."
"Once he really gets such a thing, he will get a way to open the door of another world, release the 312 weirdos who are temporarily imprisoned... and even alarm the monster inside the door that has cleared all the creatures on the door."
"The Phoenix Flame Kingdom will suffer from this creature, and it is only a matter of time before it can be destroyed. The whole world will also fall into a desperate catastrophe of at least the 'sun level' for this."
After Wright finished the report, the Silver Hall fell silent.
Most of them have never seen the so-called weirdness at all, but this does not affect their imagination of what kind of disaster this country will be if more than two hundred weirdos appear in this world at the same time.
Some time ago, the appearance of a 053 made the entire Phoenix Yan Saint almost helpless.
Those scp projects that are temporarily detained... will not be every little girl who is underage.
