Chapter 223: The Dragon Was Here

“...... In the end, it is impossible to eradicate the KY phenomenon, and the convention only works for those who consciously maintain the civilization of the Internet, but I still think that it is better to spread the work to more people than to restrain my own people. At the moment when SCP becomes a mainstream culture, KY will cease to exist. ”

Just like the famous sentence "There are a thousand Hamlets for a thousand readers", does anyone think that posting this under other works is "Hamlet" in ky?

As long as it is classic enough for the public, this problem will be solved.

"......" Guan Li looked at the tirade You Wei sent him, was silent, and decided to get to the point, "So what do you want to express?"

Wei Yu: "Now is a good opportunity to spread!"

Divine Will: "For example?"

Wei Yu: "I have a friend...... Ah no, I have a few juniors who are about to start preparing their graduation projects. (crazy hint .jpg)"

Divine Will: "And then?"

Wei Yu: "They like SCP-1762 very much, so they want to ask you through me for the adaptation rights of this project, which will only be used as a graduation project, and will not be used commercially." ”

Others may be confused about the animation production team of "God Think", which has nothing but its name, but Qin Qian, the senior sister who was pulled by You Wei to participate in the production of "I am in All Things", can be said to clearly know that You Wei has a connection with the Foundation.

And this woman is the "culprit" who included 1762 in her plan and successfully persuaded the other members of the group to work on SCP.

"SCP-1762, the Dragon's Home. Guan Li was also very impressed with this project.

Unlike the usual horrors or horrors of the Foundation, 1762 is characterised by a mechanized narrative that is indistinguishable from any other archive.

It is...... It used to be a Safe-class object, a plain-looking silver cardboard box.

The words "The dragon is here" are written on the lid in black marker.

Occasionally, the box will open automatically, and some black smoke will come out of it.

This seems to be some kind of signal, and soon, SCP-1762-2, the paper-folded "dragons", will fly out of it.

They range in length from 9 cm to 30 cm and come in a variety of species, including Eastern and Western dragons.

The origami dragon will move around the area, play and interact with the people around it, and fly back into the box after two or three hours.

The box closes, waiting for the next time it will be opened.

The above is a description of 1762 itself as recorded in the Foundation archives.

Wei Yu: "Qin Qian-the one who did the 3999 animation with us before--they already have a preliminary adaptation idea, if you have doubts about the quality of the work, you can take a look at their ideas before making a decision." ”

Guan Li was noncommittal, "Send me the contact information." ”

Wei Yu: "OK!"

You Wei sent a screenshot of this message to the group waiting on the other side, saying that the task of his middleman was completed, and the rest was up to them, and they were ready to slip away immediately.

"Wait!" Qin Qian hurriedly stopped him, "Don't be in a hurry to quit the group yet, maybe you will be needed later." ”

"I can't participate in your group's graduation project, and I'm only a sophomore, sister!

"Although the main body of the work had to be completed by the three of us, the school did not strictly restrict 'off-site help'. "This time it was Zhang Yingjun, the leader of the three-person team," and I have to say...... You're more experienced in animation than we are, especially when it comes to SCP. ”

In his sophomore year, he has experience in formal commercial animation production, even if it is just a "short animation" with only three episodes, You Wei's resume can still make countless people in the same profession look sideways.

What's more, he is not involved as a grassroots painter, but an assistant director who can influence the direction of the work to a certain extent......

The answer sheet handed over in the end did not disappoint, and You Wei's own ability has been seen.

You Wei understands again, he is also a tool man here (although I don't know if it will be used, but it's always good to be prepared).

It's okay, it's not a big problem.

Those who use tools will eventually be used as tools.

It's good for everyone to use each other.

At the same time, Qin Qian was telling Guan Li about their general production ideas.

For SCP-1762, the basic presentation of form and effect can be completed in a very short period of time, and can be compressed to less than a minute.

A larger part of the article must be devoted to describing the "Exploding Dragon" incident in the appendix.

Jabberwocky, meaning "boring, meaningless words", is a word that appears in Alice in Wonderland and the name of an evil dragon in the book.

But in the Foundation's archives, it's not a "meaningless" word.

"Occasionally, after SCP-1762-1 has retrieved all of SCP-1762-2, a message written or engraved in a variety of materials will appear on the lid of the box. ”

Through this information, the reader is able to get a glimpse of another world inside the box.

A fantasy world with dragons, giants, elves and other species.

"You've found us. Thank you. In the first message sent in 1762, the dragons affectionately addressed humans as "friends" and expressed their longing for not seeing humans in a long time, "How are your people doing? Do you remember how your rooms worked? ”

They call their world "Illusory" and say that they are much larger when they are in Illusory, but the way they appear here is very strange: "We don't quite understand. According to our contract, rooms should always be stable between rooms. Keep your word. ”

This peaceful flow of information was soon broken, and the change began with a war that took place in the illusory world.

The Foundation has no way of knowing what is going on, except for messages from 1762, reflecting the growing tension behind it.

The giants tried to come to the human world but failed, dragons, snakes, and hybrids tried to prevent "them" from returning, and other races were angry that humans had forgotten their past conventions and become stupid and ignorant.

And none of this is clear to any avail.

The Archives provide a grim view of shredded paper spewed out of 1762, damaged and dead paper dragons, and finally a substance resembling muscle and organ tissue.

When everything calmed down, the box closed and was not opened again for seven months.

Seven months later, a bloody roll of parchment was found in the box.

It was the dragon's farewell to humanity.

"We're going to burn down your room. We cannot risk putting you in harm's way. This is our farewell. Maybe one day, your people will build another room. This little hope may be disappointed, but we will cherish it. ”

An hour later, the box began to emit smoke and spontaneously combusted, and the words "Dragon Here" on the lid were burned.

The last document given to humanity in 1762 was a drawing on a papyrus scroll of a winged dragon about to fly away from a mountainous area full of trees and waterfalls.

In the lower right corner of the scroll is the last message left by the dragon.

They will go to a new realm and will never meet humanity again.

"We are sad, we love you and we will not forget you. ”

"We're scared, will you forget about us?"

No one answered, and neither could the Foundation, just as they couldn't intervene in the Illusion to help the dragon win the war that didn't even know who the enemy was.

It's not because you don't have that ability, it's just because you can't put humans in danger.

What kind of promise did the humans of this world make to the dragons of the illusory world?

No one knows.

After the paper rolls were removed, the brine emerged from the box, repairing the burnt marks.

The silver carton is as good as new.

The only change is that the "dragon is here" on the lid has been replaced with "the dragon was here".

No dragon ever appeared from it again.

"From the appearance of the dragon to the disappearance of the dragon, the mood of the whole story is very progressive, and it is good to strictly follow the original text to describe the information conveyed by 1762 one by one, and there is no need to add superfluous content. ”

"The key is how to show the content of the information, and simple words will definitely not work, which is too wasteful of animation to express itself. So we currently have two ideas. ”

"One is for the narrator to read out the information, and at the same time animate the content again, blurring and stacking it on the main screen of the Foundation observation box. This is a relatively conventional way, and it is relatively easy for the audience to understand. ”

"Second, you can cancel the narration and create a narrative with pure sound effects, ideally to achieve a very good effect, close to the feeling of 'untouchable other world' in the original text......"

Speaking from his heart, Qin Qian prefers the latter, but the difficulty is much greater than the former.

She felt that with the musical literacy of her own people, it was really not necessarily ...... Wait, since You's danger is in their hands......
