Foundation: Recruiting Anime Characters, Containing Supreme

Inside the interview room.

Di Pace stayed where he was.

As if he had already expected Dr. Montauk to come back, the corners of his mouth curled up at this moment.

"Looks like I found it."

"Dr. Montauk, how much do you know about the origins of the Scarlet King?"

"There are many theories, creatures from the abyss, ancient monsters, the inhabitants of Alagadda..."

Dr. Montauk replied casually.

He sat down in the chair again, looking intently at the former leader of the Crimson Sons in front of him.

"These are... I wouldn't say they're lies, but the text has changed."

"It is only that it has been changed, and the past itself has been changed by what is to come."

"His past has been changed for him."

Dr. Montauk's face was grave.

The Crimson King was a concept he had known about, but had not expected.

The other party can actually change history.

It sounds more than that.

"But now I'm going to tell you something. This is kind of a give and take, I guess."

"Why did you agree to the Montauk Procedure?"

Pause for a few seconds.

Dr. Montauk stared at Di Pace.

He tapped the ground with his fingers.

"I thought I said it was none of your business."

"No, what I don't understand is that it wasn't supposed to work, at least not in the way the Foundation does it."

Di Pace finished speaking.

He continued to stare at the figure, his tone serious.

"I don't mean to hurt you, Doctor. Really, I just want to understand."

"It's just—it wasn't supposed to work."

"The child can still be born."

Pause for a few seconds.

Holmes clearly saw veins popping out on the back of Dr. Montauk's hand.

Like suppressing anger.

That child... must have a close relationship with Dr. Montauk.

"I am angry."

"It would be very unprofessional to bring this up."

Dr. Montauk stared through gritted teeth.

In response to this, Di Pace just spread his hands and said helplessly.

"Well, I don't know where to begin."

"Let me go back a bit."

"I don't think there's been much activity in your department in recent months, after the Serpent Hand's attempt to open the gate, right?"

"Your procedures."

"The girl was kept from giving birth, the nomads waged an endless war, and the Bookburners kept the spears safe."

"And the Devourer—well, there's nothing you can do about the Devourer now, right?"

Hear the words.

Dr. Montauk perked up.

Now that things were back on track, his tone quickly returned to calm.

"I told everyone that he was the Devourer. Theoretically, he's now on the side of the Red King, even though he's a bit unlucky."

"But we woke up too late and could only allow the Devourer to be transformed."

"This aspect is characteristic of the Crimson King."

"I've figured it out."

Di Pace laughed when he heard this.

He looked at Dr. Montauk with great satisfaction, clapping his hands in admiration.

"Yes."

"But the Crimson King is more than that."

"The Scarlet King is not a god, Doctor. The Scarlet King is an idea."

“And ideas cannot be killed.”

PS

A guest came late at noon.

The third chapter will still be updated, and the second chapter will be updated before 12 o'clock.

Chapter 64: The Secrets of the Three Laws Revealed! The Crimson King Sequel! The Foundation's Opposition! (Please Support!)

idea?

Dr. Montauk was slightly taken aback.

He didn't expect to hear this conclusion, although he knew that the other party was at the conceptual level.

But there should also be a physical presence.

"Yes."

Di Pace spread his hands, his expression calm.

“In every culture.”

"You can see the ideas of the Crimson King in every city and tribal civilization."

"It's always the same: the red king, the flaming crown, and this spirit rooted in ancient fear."

"He's always the same: a terrifying, all-consuming monster, yet so accessible."

"A great demon in the darkness, full of violent fire and -ancient blood sacrifice."

Holmes, Luo Ji and others looked at each other.

They didn't expect to hear such words.

[Special Containment Information Obtained! ]

[Intelligence Gathering Progress 1/2]

[Ding! Key intelligence has been obtained. More information on the Crimson King is being developed and transmitted...]

The following information is:

[Recorded in the lost book "L 1aR j" in Bangladesh in 1953]

[This record involves the Crimson King and may be affected by memes]

【So inform here】

【then】

As British rule continued, some things came along, bit by bit.

In the beginning there was a shadow; a red thing.

But it’s not complete, not even in fragments. It’s something slowly and quietly approaching, piece by piece.

It encountered the shadow of the country, the bleeding rat in the rice field, and began to take shape.

It has no soul

[In the beginning, there is no mind, it is not enough for the real thing to have a mind, it is a group of images]

[It is blood-red skin, taken from the heart of some Christian demon and placed on the ancient magician of Indian rituals]

But then it was catalogued, recorded, and described in precise scientific terms.

It doesn't like this, magical stuff.

[Technology and Empire should never mix together, and begin to distort the nature of the world]

As more Europeans visited, the Ancients learned to become "civilized"

Religion also began to change

But beneath this lies resentment.

[Crying for authenticity, for reality, that is, in our resistance against them]

Buried in our literature, in Tagore and others

[The endless struggle between the old and the new, the modern and the pre-modern]

In these fault lines, in the cries of rage and resentment, in our hatred of the old and our hatred of the new

A hybrid that only obeys the Law of Howl is born.

The Crimson King is born

Why does he cry out for a forgotten age? He is an English farmer looking up at the red sky, an Aztec priest pouring out his heart.

It is all this that is transformed into modernity's own destruction, as modernity does to everything.

He is resistance, resentment, hatred of everything he once was and everything he is now.

We were once filled with good and evil and a mixture of the two, the beauty and joy of the world, struggles and headaches, and reality.

But now we have lost almost everything—except our rage.

Fury is all we have left

Then the King Came

The howl of the destroyed, the forgotten, and the suppressed

His only purpose is to destroy, rape, maim, enslave, and sneer at others. This sneer is the king's sneer that makes his enemies cry before him.

He cannot exist without modernity, because all his purposes are given by modernity.

He is the God of Blood, the God of Spine, Bones, and Tendons, reminding the inhabitants of the world.

It's cruel and abominable, it's good, it's right

It is correction so that we can once again live the life we ​​must live.

[Cold, longing, hunger, and extreme, extreme fear]

【Information End】

When this information was finally shared, all the major worlds were concerned about the Crimson King.

Gradually, a concept came into being.

The sentence just now.

The idea cannot be killed, and it has deeply shaken their hearts.

Horror world.

“Ideas are immortal?”
