The shockwave and the heatwave of the explosion spread through the room simultaneously, and at that moment, time seemed to slow down that Zhang Jue could even feel his skin slowly scorched. Was it the end for him? Zhang Jue thought.

If he were blown up like this by a minion who didn't even have a name, it would be a disgrace to his position as the Foundation's Special Advisor, and he would be embarrassed to go out and greet his colleague.

Yang Xue's scream sounded desperate, was she worried about herself?

One way or another, the explosion will inevitably trigger SCP-2950's emergency protocol failsafe. At that time, there was no telling how big the nuclear explosion would be, will the people on the side of a road be safe, and will they be able to survive just to live another day.

Zhang Jue's brain circuit is not quite the same as the average person. Legend has it that before an ordinary person dies, their whole life memories flash before their eyes, whether it was a good or bad memory. However, at this moment, Zhang Jue was thinking about the battle between Obito and Minato in Naruto.

In order to kill Obito as he was trying to destroy his village, Minato drew hundreds if not millions of explosive talismans. That scene itself was much more awesome than what Zhang Jue had to experience at that moment.

Unfortunately, the explosion was absorbed by Obito's Ability "Kamui" without a sweat. If Minato's plan were successful, it would be a happy ending. If he was blown up by this Mr. Samuel here, wouldn't something similar to that happen?

Knowing his lousy personality. Of course, something like that to happen was impossible since a mischievous person's prayer would not be granted. It would be nice if he could absorb the explosion himself. Zhang Jue thought.

Immediately afterward, a strange phenomenon occurred. He realized that his wish had been granted. In an instant, a black hole appeared in front of him. The shockwave and heatwave from the explosion were all sucked in by the black hole.

What the fuck? What the actual fuck? Zhang Jue froze as to what had just happened.

Then he saw the black hole's true form- it was not a black hole, it was a device given to him by "the kind "SCP-106. A device which the Old Man liked to call it as "the Reality Anchor".

Was it really always this powerful? This device can distort part of the reality according to his mind. It was really a valuable device.

Zhang Jue fell off a cliff and picked up Nine Yang Ability the moment he saw it. Zhang Jue's mind was fast, and these thoughts were just a fraction of a second. The entire explosion was absorbed by him just as soon as it began to disperse. Yang Xue's shout was echoed through the containment room.

"Dr. Yang, no need to shout so loudly. I can hear you." Zhang Jue said with a smile as he turned back around.

Yang Xue's mouth opened wide. The shock in her heart could no longer be described with words. Just now, Zhang Jue had shielded her and parried the explosion as if he was a heavenly god.

"You..." She was shocked for half a minute, didn't know what to react she had just seen.

"Why do you scream at me." Zhang Jue said, "Just tell me, am I cool or not?"

Yang Xue sighed. It must have been her illusion just now, and this was the real Jue Zhang. Seeing Yang Xue recover from her shock, Zhang Jue was relieved and turned his attention towards that mysterious man.

Since the explosion had taken, the mysterious man had not moved an inch. Zhang Jue always had a feeling that Mr. Samuel's self-destruction, comparable to a nuclear bomb explosion, could not hurt him.

The mysterious man gently clapped his hands, "That was wonderful, worthy of being the chosen one. It's far beyond what I expected." He mentioned the word again.

Zhang Jue was already sure that he had no malicious intent and asked, "Hey, big guy, if you don't mind. Can you tell me what do you mean by 'the chosen one' and who elected me as this 'chosen one'? Chosen for what? Paid for a salary?"

In response to Zhang Jue's series of aggressive questions, the mysterious man only replied with one word.

"Secret."

Damn it! If it weren't because of your mysterious ability, I would've killed you already!

Zhang Jue was about to curse when he saw the mysterious man suddenly waved his hand.

"Your comrades have arrived. I should be going now." Zhang Jue calculated the time. The Mobile Task Force had already dug the passage and rushed all the way over.

Currently, Site-14 should have been surrounded by the MTF, and Zhang Jue was a bit curious about how he would get out of here.

"Hey you, before you leave. Can you tell me who you are and who do you work with?" Zhang Jue asked.

In fact, he didn't hope for him to answer at all. It was best if that mysterious man was willing to answer. But if not, he had nothing to lose. To Zhang Jue's surprise, the mysterious man answered his question.

"You can call me Nobody." After saying that, he casually waved his hand in the air. As he moved, his entire body gradually became transparent and finally disappeared.

"Nobody huh…" Zhang Jue mumbled for a few moments.

It was not familiar to him. Although he had heard of the word, Nobody didn't leave much information even in his world. It wasn't even clear if Nobody was a person or an organization.

An organization with an unknown leader, an unknown number of members, and an unknown purpose. Not to mention that compared to the Chaos Insurgency, a big villain, and the Serpent's Hand is much more famous than them. They were most likely to be a neutral organization, thought Zhang Jue. It'd be better if we didn't bother them at all.

-----

"Don't move!

"Hands in the air!"

Zhang Jue was lost in thought when a squad of heavily armed soldiers entered the containment room, shouting the same old useless lines. Needless to say, the "Red Ying" Mobile Task Force had finally arrived.

The soldiers took up various vantage points and surrounded the three remaining people at the scene, and finally, two men walked in. Deputy Site Director Huang Xingwen and Red Ying Captain Guan Peng. Both of these two had met with Zhang Jue before. Seeing that Zhang Jue and Yang Xue were okay, Huang Xingwen was relieved.

Yang Xue briefed Huang Xingwen on the general situation and was surprised to learn that Dr. Li was a Chaos Insurgency member. At Site-14, Dr. Li was considered a very respectable person, and no one would have thought that he would betray the Foundation.

Guan Peng had his team members arrest Dr. Li, who groaned his crotch in pain. For this kind of Chaos Insurgency whistleblower, the Foundation would deal with it seriously this time.

After they cleared the situation, several people immediately exited the SCP-2950 containment room. After all, this thing was too dangerous. Even Deputy Site Director Huang Xingwen did not dare to look at it without permission.

On the way back to the ground, Huang Xingwen patted Zhang Jue's shoulder, "Advisor Zhang. Thanks to you, if you weren't there, we wouldn't know how this accident would have ended."

Zhang Jue said, "You are too kind, Deputy Director Huang. I am also a member of the Foundation, so I should do something to help you guys."

Huang Xingwen shook his head, "I heard what Yang Xue said. Without you, Site-14 would fall into the wrong hand, and hundreds if not thousands of innocent people's lives will die. All in all, you did an excellent job. Site Director Wenbai and I had discussed when this incident is over, and we'll apply for a commendation from the O5 council."

Talk about a commendation. Zhang Jue instantly excited, "How much is it?"

"About that…" Huang Xingwen was puzzled by his question, and only after half a second later, he continued, "Advisor Zhang, your contribution in this accident can no longer be measured in money, and to be honest, I don't know how the O5 Council will commend you. "

Dammit. Zhang Jue grimaced. Maybe the O5 Council would give him 500 Yuan and a custom medal with the words "People's Defender" on it. If that's the case, he'll put the medal on a second-hand website and sell it, then buy a bunch of paper money for him to burn and pay tribute to the O5 Council's noble character and departed morality.

But having said that, because of this accident, he came back with many benefits along the way. He acquired SCP-1013's (Cockatrice) ability – Mind Freeze, and SCP-049's (Plague Doctor) ability – Paralyze.

In addition, he also made contact with SCP-2006 (Too Spooky/The Gorilla With Antenna Head) and SCP-106 (The Old Man). The abilities of these two, which he had not fully processed yet, will probably take some time to show, and not knowing what abilities will it be when the time comes.

And most importantly, he obtained a device called- the Reality Anchor. At the moment, it seems to be a divine weapon. A device that could distort reality to a certain extent, but its usage will have to be studied properly.
