Chapter 141 - 141 137 Containment Breach Seven

Chapter 141: Chapter 137 Containment Breach Seven Chapter 141: Chapter 137 Containment Breach Seven This office was almost always this dark.

Because she disliked turning on the lights.

To be honest, she quite enjoyed this job. There was no need to engage in fights, no need to ponder over strange research every day, no need to wrack her brain over various containment plans, and definitely no need to deal with those annoying S-class containment subjects…

Every day, she only needed to watch the screen in front of her.

Although there were quite a few images on the screen, several thousand?

She hadn’t checked in a long time as they were always changing.

In any case, this was fairly relaxing for her, and she even had time to read that book she could never seem to finish.

However, she would occasionally run into some distressing matters, like now, when she had to review this file once again.

…

She extended a hand.

This hand was beautiful, slender and elegant, soft and radiant with a luster that made it cleaner than ivory.

At this moment, the thumb of this hand was flipping through a corner of the paper file and turning to the next page.

Immediately after, a sharp face came into view.

This was a strangely angled photo, because the background was a piece of ceiling. That meant the person who took this photo was pinned to the ground by the owner of the face before capturing the shot.

Seven had gone mad… Four had died…

To merely capture a single photograph, a toll of eleven “volunteers” had been paid… As she recalled the scene of utter chaos, she shook her head uncomfortably.

The person in the photo was thin, with a sharp chin and nose, high cheekbones, and raised eyebrows. They had a disgusting smirk, and their hair even had a tint of green to it. It was hard to imagine a person looking like this in reality…

But indeed, he had appeared… stood in front of everyone, with bouts of bone-chilling laughter ringing out.

That’s when people finally understood what “madness” looked like…

Everyone was satisfied…

And at the same time, they all regretted it…

The woman exhaled deeply, feeling an itch in her throat and an urge to laugh. This emotion appeared very abruptly in her mind and made her lips curl upwards unnaturally.

Naturally, she knew what this meant, so she opened a small box beside her and took out a red capsule that was inside.

“This is truly terrifying—”

Reflecting on this, she placed the capsule in her mouth and bit down directly.

A faint taste of blood spread through her mouth, and the inexplicable urge to laugh in her head also started to fade away.

…

She steadied herself and continued to turn the pages of the file in her hand…

“S—033”

“Dimensional Materialization Proposal” Phase Two Product—”Madness”

…

All the S-class abnormal files were only available in paper form, as an old stubborn man believed that only the oldest method of record-keeping was the safest. Like locks, usually the more complicated they are, the easier they get breached, but the sturdiest ones are the simple “bolts.”

As it turned out, he was right. In several large-scale containment document theft incidents, not a single S-class file went missing.

It was certain; that old man was always adept at guarding things, and it was hard to imagine anything escaping his surveillance,

Except for that… woman

…

…

The file she was currently reviewing still contained the same descriptions, the same experiment reports. Although she had read it many times over, to the point of memorizing it, it was still necessary to read it again, as a brilliant idea might emerge during the process.

Time passed by, second by second. She read very carefully, savoring each word, each punctuation, and sometimes stopping to ponder for a while…

But… just like every other time, she still couldn’t think of any method that could truly stop “it”.

“Madness” was contagious…

And more terrifying than any virus…

It didn’t require a medium, no mode of transmission, and there were no vaccines.

Because it was an idea, intangible, invisible, indestructible… and no one was immune to it…

Just seeing their appearance

Hearing their laughter

Witnessing what they had done,

Or even just recalling those scenes of madness,

Would plunge one into endless chaos,

Until they became one of them.

…

The woman slowly closed the file,

That green-haired lunatic was like that, he kept turning people into versions of himself, one after another, like a spreading virus.

The scariest thing was, he wouldn’t die.

Just like what was said before, it was just a thought, even if the flesh was killed… it just needed to find another vessel…

“Heh, there’s no way out,”

She muttered to herself, laughing mockingly.

However, fortunately, that chubby guy found someone fairly reliable. Although she didn’t know what price he had paid, in any case, it was suppressed.

…

…

At that moment, the woman looked at the dense surveillance footage before her and sighed helplessly…

Those people were laughing, shouting, shooting, destroying, killing each other.

A bunch of lunatics.

And among these screens, a guy in a purple outfit was leisurely strolling along, walking from one absurd scene into another. Wherever he went, there would immediately erupt even crazier noises, more blood would be sprayed, or more violent explosions would occur. In short, as he walked, he created an uncomfortable contrast with the surrounding chaos.

The taste of the blood from the capsule still lingered in the woman’s mouth, so she took a few more glances at Chen Xiao on the screen.

This was a situation she had anticipated. Because suppression is always temporary, like a tap that is continuously turned off, it will inevitably burst one day; therefore, it’s necessary to occasionally release some pressure.

The woman calculated the time, in just an hour, he had turned the entire abnormal creature research area into a terrifying madhouse.

“This vessel… might be its favorite one,” she thought.

In that instant, she felt as if this person and the green-haired one were very alike!

Even during normal times.

Be it their appearances, their laughter, or the strange and inexplicable aura about them.

If there was anything different, it was that his mouth wasn’t as large as the other’s.

That was for sure, how could anyone have such a disgusting mouth…

But, this person seemed to have slit the corners of his mouth.

Why would he do such a thing?

The woman wondered.

…

…

At this time, the man in the purple suit merrily hopped down a corridor, then spread his arms and spun around, seeming very pleased.

Suddenly!

He stopped.

And stared straight at the camera, as if he were looking through the screen at everyone who was watching him.

“Hi,”

He greeted.

The woman frowned, her heart felt like it was being wrung, quite uncomfortable, so she looked away.

…

…

Bai Xiong was also watching the surveillance video just sent by Song Xuan, so he saw Chen Xiao greeting him as well.

He exhaled deeply, trying hard to make his expression not look so “expected”

While internally cursing nonstop.

“It’s over, it’s over… It’s really him, isn’t it”
