Is it really normal to contain these anomalies?

Even the three Lobotomy Corporation employees who were watching were a little surprised, especially Aika. It was the first time she was so grateful that she didn't have to fight an Abnormality.

"I'm very interested in you..."

Now, 049 wiped off the black blood that was still dripping from the sharp stick, and continued to approach the cell man who was almost cut into a human stick, step by step, and asked softly.

"Are you...really a human?"

What exactly is the plague that 049 mentioned?

For a long time, even it itself could not express clearly, is it the inevitable death of life, or the emotions and connections that are intricately linked with the world?

no one knows.

Or....both?

But none of this matters. What matters is that it has been seeking ways to completely rid humanity of the 'plague' over countless years.

But now, 049 was surprised to find that the best treatment it was looking for did not seem to be the only one...

049 It can be seen that the soul and body of the person in front of him do not match...

The plague surrounds it, no... rather than surrounding it, it's more like the plague is emanating from it, yet it doesn't seem to affect it...

'It's close....'

'Yeah, just one step away...'

'But...I am the only antidote.'

049 might really want to talk to the creator of this thing...but now, it is also very interested in the creation in front of it.

"I will take over your doctor's treatment plan... There may be some modifications, but please don't be afraid..."

The plague doctor chuckled under his mask, "We will all succeed..."

It was not known whether the cell man in front of it understood, but it was indeed staring at the guy who was the first person in the world to force itself into a desperate situation.

'I'll rip your damn beak off...'

If it had a mouth, it would have said this.

But now, in front of everyone's witness, the body of the employee who housed the cell man began to fall down powerlessly.

The cell head rolled down at this moment.

No one knew it was so flexible. Without the restraints of its body, it drilled out from various gaps and broken pipes...it went to look for the next useful corpse.

Bai Yu understood that the cell man in Dead Cells was like this. It would not get tired. For it, which had lost all its memories, fighting was everything. It would come back soon... with more skilled fighting skills.

"Senior, we have to go," Komini trotted over from the other end of the corridor.

"Hmm..." Bai Yu took almost a last look at 049 who was walking towards the direction where the dead cells disappeared, trying to find its trace.

It seems that in this out-of-control branch, every Abnormal has its own things to do.

He followed Aika and Komini and wanted to leave the area.

From the broadcast just now, he basically knew what was going to happen in this branch.

Director? Want to deploy the Rabbit Squad... These clones from R Corporation kill anything they see.

The scene in the dream seemed to be becoming reality little by little. This time, Bai Yu was not going to get his head blown off by these things.

"doctor."

But when he was about to disappear at the end of the corridor, the plague doctor suddenly called him.

"I hope you won't stop me."

"..."

Bai Yu knew what it meant. This time, 049 was afraid that he wouldn't be able to persuade it to return to the containment unit by just talking nicely...

"The people here are suffering from the plague," the doctor in front of him said softly, "I will save them because this is our job..."

This was the last conversation of the meeting.

Bai Yu didn't answer it, but he was still stunned standing there... as if he had noticed something...

But he quickly recovered. Without thinking too much, he turned the corner and left quickly.

The three of them ran frantically in the corridor of the brain branch. They had indeed wasted too much time along the way.

If they stayed any longer, they would probably be among the rabbits' 'fresh grass'.

And now, after a full sprint, the elevator to the control department is right in front of us.

However, there were already several civil servants gathered here with faces of devastation.

"Why! Why can't it be opened?"

“We’ve been abandoned!”

They shouted loudly and banged on the alloy elevator door with their hands even though they were covered in blood.

When Bai Yu and his friends arrived at the elevator door, they finally understood why these civil servants were so desperate. The operating console here was locked.

Chapter 76 ▉▉▉’s Response

"How could this happen! There are still 3 minutes left..."

Aijia was also a little bit unbelievable when she saw this scene. There was only one possibility for this situation, that is, the blockade had begun.

She fumbled for the communicator on her body and was about to ask Yulia in the control department what was going on, but found that the communication was also cut off.

Aijia was really panicking at this moment, "Let's find the emergency stairs!"

"Don't be silly, the lockdown process won't make that kind of mistake."

Bai Yu pointed out the mistakes in her words and stroked the closed elevator door in front of him with his hand.

He slowly looked at the surveillance camera. He knew that there was someone else on the other side, and he also knew that she had the authority to unblock this branch.

But she just watched coldly.

Bai Yu was right.

The headquarters of Lobotomy Corporation is still in the dark director's office.

Through the surveillance, Angela and Bai Yu were looking at each other across an unknown distance.

And just at this moment, right behind her, a person walked in from the sensor door.

It was a white-haired woman in an orange combat uniform.

"This damn place really hasn't changed at all," she said, having just taken off her combat helmet and stretched. "Hey, Angela, could you guys lower the transmission frequency of the W Company branch a bit? Every time I come here, I feel like my internal organs are disrupted..."

"Miao..." Angela didn't look back, but just said softly, "Let the rabbits go."

Yes, she will not show mercy. Using W Company's technology, all rabbits can reach all branches within a few seconds regardless of distance. This requires creating a closed area a few minutes in advance.

What's more, so many people have sacrificed their lives, both at the headquarters and at the branch. Essentially, what is the difference between you and those who have been sacrificed?

So....why do you look at me like that!

Angela herself didn't even know why a trace of annoyance appeared in her mechanical heart...

Yes, even through the surveillance camera, the man's eyes did not show the despair and resentment of being abandoned, but only calmness and compassion...

"I'm not the one being abandoned, nor am I the one about to lose everything... It's obviously you..."

She whispered in her heart, but in reality, the fist of the best AI in history had already clenched unconsciously.

"how?"

Miao noticed Angela's abnormality, she walked over, saw the man on the other side of the surveillance, and said with a malicious smile.

"Oh~reluctant?"

"..."

Hearing the provocation behind her, Angela turned around and glanced at Mu with her golden pupils. It was this glance that made the rabbit captain of the Fourth Army of R Company temporarily shut his mouth.

"Miao, we at L Company didn't hire you to be such a chatterbox."

"..." Only then did Miao become a little more serious and started talking about work. "Are you serious? Angela, there are three departments and twelve corridors... Even if it's a branch, our R Company will still charge enkephalin according to the standard."

"Of course," Angela said without any intention of bargaining, "Let's get to work."

"Okay, since you guys at L Company have the money anyway..." Myuu shrugged and turned off the headphones. "Rabbits, you all heard it, right? The next patch of grass is the entire W-0001 branch, excluding the control department..."

The command has been given, and in just a few seconds, the rabbits will come to that patch of grass and eat all the 'grass'...

But just as these words fell, in this room, witnessed by Angela and Miu, the surveillance footage related to the W-0001 branch suddenly disappeared at this moment.

'What? ! ’

Angela looked back in surprise, but the facts did not change at all.

The screens behind him had all gone out, and the room only regained its light 0.1 seconds later when the surveillance cameras here automatically switched the images back to the headquarters.

"What's going on? As an energy company, your L company still has a power outage?" Miao raised his eyebrows and did not miss any opportunity to make a few more sarcastic remarks.

But this time, Angela didn't have the heart to refute her. She was mobilizing all available resources to inquire...

There is only one possibility for the situation that just happened... Lobotomy Corporation lost its W-0001 branch!

But this is impossible. In Angela's database, she can still feel that the burial protocol of the W-0001 branch has not been activated.

No....

Angela soon realized that it was not that Lobotomy Corporation lost the W-0001 branch, but that she temporarily lost control of this branch!

But how is this possible?

Even the branch manager has no authority to close the connection with the headquarters!

This time, Angela was really confused and she couldn't find any reasonable explanation!

"Even the Rabbit Team can't get through..."

Just now, Miao Ye had just finished talking with the R Company headquarters, and the rabbit captain's face also showed doubts.

"Also, W Company also said that the space density in your branch's basement is shockingly low..."

-----------------

Bai Yu withdrew his gaze from the surveillance camera.

He just opened the system's control panel...

He received this thing at the moment 049 told him that it would not return to the containment unit honestly.

This is a query from the system.

[Confirmed SCP-049 has breached containment... 64% of containment facilities are ineffective, special circumstances have been achieved...]

【Inquiry: Should we seek reinforcements from ▉▉▉?】

【whether?】

It seemed like just a few days ago, he also encountered a similar multiple-choice question.

And now, with all the civil affairs around him in chaos, Bai Yu was looking at the options before him.

However, I'm afraid he doesn't need to think about anything now.

In his heart, he already had the answer.

And when he made up his mind, the system loading prompts popped up one after another in front of Bai Yu.

【Understood...Response is being processed...】

Please wait...

There was silence for a few seconds, but suddenly the lights in the entire W-0001 branch flickered collectively.

"What went wrong again?!" The civil servants began to rage almost out of emergency.

Chaos is almost inevitable.

But here, apart from Komini who was still looking at her predecessor calmly, Bai Yu was probably the only one who could remain calm.

He even felt a little relieved.

Because now there is only the last system prompt in front of him.
