S-1-3 was called the Unusual Assembling Order.

It could forcefully conscript contained anomalies into a party to finish one mission of any nature, the drawback of which was that after finishing their mission, these anomalies would go out of control and needed to be re-contained.

After recognizing that Negary was an intelligent lifeform, the SCR Foundation had comprehended that his mental capabilities far exceeded that of humans. If they applied human thinking to contained anomalies to fight him, those anomalies would only be captured and turned into Negary’s power.

For that reason, they had decided to pit the supernatural against the supernatural, allowing those anomalies to form their own parties and freely act in an unrestrained way, which would let the anomalies exert their true powers.

While the supernatural party was still being gathered, Site C4’s mass containment breach had occurred ahead of time.

As reality had proven itself, Bart still managed to play quite a considerable role, having been taken to be investigated after claiming that he knew the truth of the dome.

It truly must be said that Negary’s understanding of human psychology had proven to be extremely thorough, as Bart had managed to become a true master psychologist by borrowing Negary’s knowledge. In an isolated environment like Site C4, everyone’s psychological states had become extremely sensitive, allowing Bart to take advantage of them.

With his psychological knowledge, he managed to convince several employees that the world outside of the dome had been destroyed; and that this Site was the last remaining embers of the human race.

They were the last humans on Noah’s ark, and that they needed to modify the Site into an altar for the world outside the dome to recover, at which point they would repopulate the human race among themselves.

At this point, most of the managerial brass’ efforts were focused on the dome and the upcoming mass containment breach, so Bart’s rebellion was outside of their expectations. Taking advantage of this, Bart had the group he persuaded help release every D-class personnel who were being kept here, then brought them under his command.

Each of these D-class personnels was a death row prisoner, not only did they have the capability of committing crimes, they had all committed crimes worthy of being sentenced to death, so they couldn’t be too incompetent, at least, they’d have the courage to do so again.

In this way, Bart now held control over a not inconsiderable force in the Site, which he used to first release a few contained anomalies. For example, C-4-51, the Mad Spoon Killer, who immediately manifested next to a certain office worker of the Site and began beating him with a spoon right after being released.

The few anomalies that were first released caused chaos in the Site, which then led to more containment breaches, gradually ending up with the mass containment breach.

A man was walking through an underground hallway with a long line of people following behind; this was the Magnet Man, his back seemingly carried some sort of magic that compelled others to subconsciously follow him.

At another place, two people with an extremely weak sense of presence were madly rampaging. Their sense of presence had gotten weak to the point that not even sensors could recognize them. It had gotten to a point that if they didn’t have a periodic system message to remind them, the personnel at Site C4 would have forgotten that they had these two anomalies in their containment.

To prove their presence, these anomalies were willing to do anything to draw the attention of others. Before being contained, they had robbed banks, raided TV stations, as well as committed other high-profile crimes. Right now, they were trying to draw the attention of people by releasing even more anomalies.

A pair of bright red high heels would spontaneously manifest by random corridors in the Site, anyone who saw it would feel drawn to it, then compelled to put it on. The pair of high heels seemed to be capable of automatically changing, fitting the feet of anyone. Each person who put on this pair of high heels would start bleeding from their seven main orifices and die with a fearful countenance after just a bit of time.

A man wearing a Santa Claus costume was freely walking through the corners of the Site while carrying a bag on his back, muttering as he strolled around: “Hohoho, time to punish the naughty children”

Numerous anomalies appeared all over the Site, having escaped their containment. The mass containment breach had made it dangerous for everyone at the Site, the only fortunate thing was that these anomalies weren’t too dangerous, being only C-class.

And it was in such a dangerous environment that the previously established order collapsed even faster. Using his verbal hypnotic abilities and Negary’s mark on his body, Bart acted more than what he actually was and successfully drew a few rational humanoid anomalies who had noticed Negary’s existence, like the Witch of Destiny, to his side.

With his control of manpower and the cooperation of some anomalies, Bart slowly took control of the Site, then instructed the others in arranging the aforementioned altar, drawing various inexplicable runes over the smooth surface of the base.

Wherever a rune was finished, it would begin glowing slightly golden; in truth, these runes were part of the knowledge that Negary granted Bart.

Each living being had a certain connection to the world that they were born in, no matter how weak. So if such living beings were to draw and carve out runes that represented Negary’s information, Negary would be able to borrow their connection with the world to accelerate his infection of the world. In essence, this was what it meant for three men to make a forest.

Under the support of Bart and his men, Site C4 was slowly being turned into a sort of information transmitter. Just as Negary had said, once this mechanism fully activated, information about Negary would rapidly spread to the entire world.

That would be time for Negary to fully invade and infect this world, and anyone who wished to stop Negary would find it extremely tough to do so. After all, by the time Negary’s information was spread outside the dome, the outermost layer of the world would have been completely infected, turning Negary into a part of the world itself.

…

〖 Then, they should be coming soon 〗standing on top of Site C4, Negary was staring outside the dome, as if to continuously observe something.

This world was extremely strange, as there was no such thing as the world’s Protagonist, nor had the will of the world become personified; there was only a main trend of the world, that being the constant war between the anomalies and the anomaly containment organizations.

Negary was an outsider, a virus that would infect the world. Whenever germs or viruses attempted to infect a body, the body’s immune system – its defense mechanism – would naturally react and retaliate, and this was no different. As Negary infected and broke the main trend of the world, it would naturally cause retaliation from the world’s immune system.

Everything before this had been nothing but child’s play, so coming up next, the world was likely to create an anomaly to specifically get rid of him, the forces of the world would also gradually converge to fight him.

After all, his enemy was an entire world itself, even if Negary’s current form was a special virus that could infect entire worlds, if he couldn’t quickly evolve and grow to counter this world, he would most likely be killed by the world’s own corrective forces very soon.

The golden runes gradually filled the entire grounds of Site C4. At the same time, some of the anomalies were also being surrounded by golden liquid, quickly analyzed then infected by Negary.

The more information he extracted from the world, the more Negary’s virus was evolving.
