Chapter 396: Talking about business

This black coffin is obviously very important, it looks like a prop item, and it is probably too large, so there is no way to lightly put it into the exclusive space of the evil spirit contract.

Over the next three hours, with Isham leading the way, the convoy quickly reached a hidden base of the SCP Foundation.

The entire base is located in the depths of a desert connected with sand, which was formerly under the jurisdiction of the United States Air Force, and there are a large number of craters in this desert area, which are special facilities for verifying yàn in the past.

This is a large rock drilling machine weighing 100 tons to perforate vertically in the ground, dig a deep hole with a depth of 100 to 1,500 meters on the surface, and then dig a tunnel several hundred meters horizontally from the explosion point at the bottom, and place a container in the depths of the tunnel, and place a secondary critical nuclear material inside the container, which can force a nuclear explosion.

If the power of the nuclear explosion is too great, or if the tunnel is not deep enough vertically, or if the ground is not solid, the sand and rock that is backfilled in the tunnel will collapse around the tunnel shortly after the explosion, and the earth will collapse into the cavern, causing a partial depression on the surface of the earth, and sometimes a huge crater with a diameter of 200 meters and a depth of 20 meters.

The 200 craters scattered across the Nevada test site, large and small, were created in this way.

Feng Han and the others arrived at the former nuclear test monitoring base, and at the same time, it was also an underground nuclear defense facility.

"Welcome to the SCP Foundation's research base...... "It was Dr. Gears who came out to study them, Feng Han nodded to him, it was not the first time the two sides had met.

The convoy entered through the front entrance to the base, and they were found on a lift platform, descending into the depths of the ground as if they were riding an elevator.

"Here's your real base......

The actual Yàn base, which has been converted from an underground nuclear defense facility, appears to have dozens of floors. As the raiders descended into the underground base, they could see the scene of each floor of the actual base.

"That's right, this Resarch-class facility is used for special research, and it's mostly researchers and engineers who are here to do some realization, and on the one hand they're going to parse some SCP objects. Coordinate research and testing of one or more SCPs; On the other hand, they are responsible for the design, improvement, and maintenance of containment units and protocols for anomalous objects, individuals, or phenomena within Foundation facilities. ”

Dr. Gears said indifferently, "This is the first time we have invited outsiders to visit our site, and we hope you enjoy the trip. ”

"Well, I think we will."

Feng Han is in charge of dealing with the affairs of the SCP Foundation, and he is basically in charge of the negotiation activities with the other party.

"Tom!"

The platform eventually came to a halt and reached the underground space marked "21st floor".

"This is the training room of the tactical response team stationed at this actual base, and you can use it for the time being. It is very well equipped and we will provide you with the services you need......"

"That's very much appreciated."

Feng Han's expression remained unchanged and said, "However, can we talk about business now?" ”

"Is that SCP-140?"

"Yes, that's why we're here, and I'm sure the Foundation understands that this is getting worse!"

Feng Han felt the need to have an open and honest conversation with the SCP Foundation, and there were some situations where the two sides needed to communicate with each other.

"So, what kind of help can you provide to our intelligence?" Dr. Gears asked unhurriedly.

"Is the world of SK-class reorganized? It's a big crisis, but the SCP Foundation has been around since its inception. It has also encountered a great crisis that is even more dangerous and will even destroy the world and lead to the extinction of human civilization. But we've all dealt with these issues individually......"

(The implication is that we can still solve the problem without your help...... )

Feng Han smiled slightly, he stood beside Dr. Gears and said softly, "It's not as simple as you say, throughout the history of the Foundation, containment failures and unresolved status quo are not uncommon, 'you'." The Foundation itself, the O5 Council, and the O5 Council have never been a panacea......"

"The simplest analogy, by far...... You don't know where 'we' came from, or why we're here. In fact, the situation of SCP-140 is no longer something that the Foundation itself can handle......"

"To put it bluntly, the difference in the amount of information obtained determines the difference in the perception of a thing......"

Dr. Gears was a smart man after all, and he understood the subtext of Feng Han's words in an instant. Yes, the biggest problem with the Foundation right now is that it doesn't have a lot of information, and SCP-xxx41 has a lot of information about the SCP Foundation.

…… To be honest, the powerful power of the SCP Foundation lies in the fact that the SCP Foundation, as well as the O5-class members behind it, have always been in a state of transcendence and ignorance to the world. The SCP Foundation's concealment is the best layer of protection, which is why the Foundation has been hiding behind the scenes of the world and adopting a standard of mysticism.

Once the secrets of the SCP Foundation are exposed to the world, it will be in great danger, and the large number of SCP objects in the possession of the SCP Foundation alone will become the target of public criticism. The problem now is that SCP-xxx41 is aware of the existence of the SCP Foundation, understands its workings, and knows everything about this vast organization, while the SCP Foundation knows nothing about SCP-xxx41.

SCP-xxx41, also known as the Feng Han group, appear to be cooperative with the Foundation, and according to their claims, they appeared for the sake of a world crisis that could arise through SCP-140.

"Is it really possible that there will be a situation that is so strict that even the SCP Foundation can't handle it?" Dr. Gears muttered to himself.

………………

The SCP Foundation has prepared the 21st underground floor for the raiders as their camping place, but it is undeniable that this 21st underground floor is actually a surveillance camera, surrounded by a large number of cameras, thermal sensors, and eavesdropping monitoring equipment, and everyone's every move is monitored.

"Come to think of it, isn't it a bit presumptuous to come here, and if the SCP Foundation decides to kill us, why don't we just blow it up?" (To be continued......)
