SCP Corporation: Contain Bonfire
Chapter 782 - 782 549 Follow-Up Handling of the Nonexistent

Chapter 782: Chapter 549: Follow-Up Handling of the “Nonexistent Hospital” Incident. _1 Chapter 782: Chapter 549: Follow-Up Handling of the “Nonexistent Hospital” Incident. _1 It was at this moment, sensing that the time was right, that Colin took out the “Cyanide Injection O-1 Enhanced Custom Model” and jabbed it into the other person’s neck, pressing and injecting the liquid.

In an instant, Brother Unyielding felt his body—no, more precisely, a tremendous splitting pain deep within his mind.

He could feel the consciousnesses that had been fostered under the corruption of those horrific beings rapidly being erased, screaming, struggling…

This process was extremely painful, lasting for several tens of seconds before he felt a bit better, but then came a great emptiness. He felt “clean” to be sure, but his body was riddled with holes and hollow inside.

The feeling wasn’t as intense, but the awareness of it was no less torturous than the pain…

Excruciatingly so.

“Take all your stuff and leave it. You don’t have to give it to me. I’ll take care of this body here to avoid any incidents. As for the deeper levels of your body or soul, you’ll have to use all your strength to crawl to the ‘Bonfire’ with the severed arms while those things are heavily damaged. Accept the warmth of the flame to slowly recover until you’re complete. Then you can think about the rest. Otherwise, it’s still a dead end,” Colin instructed.

He had seen the effects noted on this particular injection before.

To erase the negative parts within the body and then slowly nurture it back to health through “Bonfire,” which seemed to work as well on demons as it did on humans.

“Thank you, Brother Shunzi, the flame, it’s so warm…”

“Bang.”

Colin nodded, raised his gun, and with one shot exploded Brother Unyielding’s head, incinerating it in an instant until not a trace was left.

He had done all he could; whether the other could make it out alive was up to his own fate now.

If all went well, Brother Unyielding was highly likely to recover at some future time, but exactly when was hard to say—perhaps a few months at least, or indefinably longer.

But if things did not go well…

One could only say that since the dismembered hands had already been cast, even if he failed, he would no longer continue to pose a threat.

“Struggle to survive.”

Colin shook his head, gathered his thoughts, and looked at another “special event” besides helping “Brother Unyielding.”

[Special Event 2: Please find all employees lost and controlled in this place, dead or alive, and after sealing them with the power of the “Flame Bearer,” send them into the “Train in the Fog” exclusive carriage.]

…

“Does this mean others can be saved too?”

Now that the mysterious forces in the hospital’s space had significantly weakened and with the guidance provided by this mission, Colin was able to sense the locations of the staff who had attacked him earlier.

It seems that the vast majority were between the eighth and eleventh floors…

Except for a few whose bodies were beginning to smell, the others seemed to be still alive.

They were either passed out with tubes inserted in the intensive care unit or their bodies were dissected into hundreds of pieces, stored in various bottles and jars.

Without hesitation, Colin swiftly set into motion while the mission was not yet finalized…

Twenty minutes later, Colin found the bodies of eleven staff members. Unlike “Brother Unyielding,” even if dead, their level of corruption wasn’t as deep.

It was mostly like a few bottles of mineral water with some grease in them…

“The most critical part is that their souls and spirits are still relatively pure,” Colin observed a few employees who were in a deep coma due to the deep parasites and whose limbs were missing.

Though they were missing arms and legs and it didn’t look good, they were still alive, which meant it wasn’t so bad.

Not to mention the company, even he was confident he could bring them back to life.

Of course, whether their minds would be normal afterward was another question, as he wasn’t in charge of specialized rescue…

Without lingering, Colin’s gaze shifted to three other staff members laid out separately…

They looked peaceful, more so in death than the previous ones, their skin pale and even showing cloudy, striated, or patchy scars, their bodies emitting a faint odor of decay…

At that moment, the “Innate Ashen Holy Body” who had considerably recovered came over and looked at the mess of employee bodies, interrupting Colin’s reverie:

“Brother Shunzi, can they… still be saved?”

“Saved? I don’t know…”

Colin shook his head and spoke without false promises:

“In theory, the company has the capability, but considering the current state of affairs, you as a D Level staff must understand a bit. My current task is to send them back and not to follow up on the rest…”

While speaking, Colin glanced at one of the female staff, who had a clear ligature mark on her neck.

Of course, besides that, her lower back and abdomen also had openings, and there was damage and loss of internal organs.

But he had already had the Fire Tree sew her up…

This was the “receptionist” he had seen in the lobby, dead in the outpatient department on the ninth floor.

Colin guessed the reason she chose suicide might have been not wanting to be replaced, or perhaps she was severely injured and too desperate at the time. Anyway, it seemed that she was now gone.

Of course, this was just from his perspective.

Given the powers the company had shown, he believed she could be saved.

That was during the company’s peak.

Now, with the company dysfunctional, it was hard to say whether sending her back would lead to rescue, cremation, or cryopreservation.

Hearing Colin’s words, the “Innate Ashen Holy Body” fell silent for a while, his gaze resting on the other two for quite some time before he eventually let out a long sigh, not asking any more questions…
