Time Travel Foundation: Captured By Goc At The Beginning

"Of course I am.

Listening to the archbishop's trembling questions, the "devil" sat on a chair and fiddled with his non-existent nails while answering casually.

The Archbishop did not have such a good attitude. As soon as he heard that the demon in front of him was really SCP-738, his mood sank to the bottom.

SCP-738, Object Class Keter, is located in the SCP Foundation archives under the codename "Making Deals with the Devil."

Don't look at the dense words described in the file. In plain language, it is a "demonic entity" that only you can see and no one else can see. It negotiates a deal with you. You only need to pay the corresponding price, and it can Help you realize the corresponding wishes.

Theoretically, as long as you can afford the corresponding price, SCP-738 can help you rule the entire universe.

(But the combat power of the Supreme God is not low either)

Although the practical value of this SCP project is very high at first glance, because the SCP Foundation "cannot afford" the price of many wishes that it wants to realize, this SCP project is not taken seriously and is idle in the site. Occasionally Do some experiments.

After the civil war broke out, SCP-738 was contained in a secret site of the Originalists.

As soon as the archbishop recalled these contents and combined with what was happening now, his smart brain suddenly figured it out.

The ritual described in hundreds of thousands of words in SCP-CN-2513794 is indeed useful, and the process is even clever and groundbreaking.

But the problem is that the summoning result of this ritual is not to create a "demon controlled by the summoner", but to summon SCP-738 through a mysterious method, which can even be seen by others without Just traders.

And because the Guardians were deceived by SCP-CN-2794, they really thought the contents were true.

And their previous efforts to hold this ceremony now directly turned into clown behavior, and those people died in vain.

Thinking of this, the archbishop immediately dropped his head without even feeling angry. The previous excitement and confidence were completely gone. He looked like he was dozens of years older, as if he would fall down at any time.

"Currently, I have temporarily suspended the time in the one-meter area centered on you and me. Although you couldn't afford the price of your wish before, I still have enough time now. You can think about it and then mention another one. You can pay for it." The desire to pay the price..."

SCP-738 paused here and then said meaningfully:

"This time, I have to think about it carefully."

The archbishop suddenly regained his composure when he heard this.

(daej) He raised his head, staring into SCP-738's red eyes, thinking about whether to give it or not.

He thought for a moment and said:

"Move all SCP Foundation Defenders here to a safe location on our site."

"Well... you can afford this."

SCP-738 thought for a moment and answered.

"What's the price?"

"What of your dozens of SCP items have been sent to your mind."

Upon hearing this request and feeling the items that SCP-738 wanted, the Archbishop nodded without hesitation, and then said:

"You take it."

After hearing that the trader in front of him was willing to pay this price, SCP-738 stood up from his chair, walked to the archbishop, and stretched out his red hand.

The Archbishop quickly shook it.

"make a deal."

SCP-738 said with a smile, then waved.

At this moment, the Archbishop and the surviving members of the Guardian sect disappeared on the spot and then appeared at their previously secretly arranged security sites around the world.

Today, Das felt very clearly and profoundly what ups and downs are.

He almost jumped with excitement when he saw through a battlefield recorder installed on an elite unit at the front that they easily broke through the last line of defense of the defenders.

But when he saw the soldiers swinging their sharp axes wildly, but couldn't break the damn bulletproof glass, he felt bad all of a sudden.

Finally, when he saw the man in religious clothing completing the last step of the ceremony, especially when he saw the red gas floating out and gradually gathering together, his heart almost stopped.

The moment he saw the "demon" appear, Das's heart went blank, and he was completely despairing.

He knew in his heart that he had failed and the defenders had made a comeback.

Just when he took out a pistol from his waist and pointed it at his temple, preparing to die as an apology, the devil...are you willing to pay the price?" The words made him stop. .

The following conversation immediately made him understand that the demon was actually "SCP-738".

The first time he understood the identity of the devil, he laughed out loud on the spot regardless of the serious occasion, and his laughter got bigger and bigger, until tears came out of his eyes.

Because he knew in his heart that the Guardsmen could not afford the price.

When he listened to the archbishop's stammering voice and the awkward conversation behind him, Ince's stomach ached from laughing.

"...Use the thaumaturgic high-speed cutter to open the bulletproof glass and get in to capture him within two minutes!"

After stopping his laughter, he picked up the communicator next to him and gave the order.

At this time, he saw what the archbishop said to SCP-738, and then the archbishop disappeared in an instant.

Das was not stupid either. He understood that the archbishop must have made some wish for them to escape.

But he didn't care anymore.

Because the long-awaited ceremony of the Archguard Faction ended in a complete failure, to say the least, even if the organizations in the Veil World still support them, with the Original Purpose Faction's current absolute advantage and crushing combat power, they will not be able to overturn the situation.

The archbishop and those members of the Guards who had not been killed escaped, which was nothing more than an unpleasant episode and basically insignificant.

Das said happily to the five O5 representatives who supported the originalists beside him:

"Have they all seen it?"

"Of course, Commander Das, congratulations."

The representative said in the same beaming voice.

At the same time, Su Bai at a certain GOCN site also learned about the final result of the ceremony of the Guardian Sect through someone lurking in a relatively high position in the Original Sect.

Compared to the surprise and happiness of the originalists or the despair of the defenders, because he is a time traveler and knows the true content of SCP-CN-2794, Su Bai doesn't have any special emotions except that he thinks some people are clowns. .

But he is also a little regretful. In fact, he would have fought the civil war longer so that he could fish in troubled waters better.

And the agreement he made with the GOC extremists back then was to start preparing for action after the civil war was over. The longer the civil war lasted, the longer and more fully he had to prepare.

However, this idea disappeared after not lingering for long.

While Su Bai continued to recall the contents of various SCP official websites that he had seen, he picked up the encrypted communicator and said to the person on the other end:

"Order all our lurkers within the SCP Foundation to proceed according to the established plan. Remember, the first goal is to protect secrets and lives. The operation code name is...
