Soul Of Negary Chapter 293 - Vol4 Ch18: The 22nd [REDACTED]

Chapter 293: Vol4 Ch18: The 22nd [REDACTED]

Translator: La0o9

This floor of Site C4 collapsed altogether. Bennett Foddy, no, he should now be called the collective frustration of all failures, his body had become bloated to its limits, coupled with its unbreakable property, which had caused the structural integrity of the building to fail.

Victor was currently standing on top of a floating door, currently pus.h.i.+ng his gla.s.ses up, completely unfazed by the dim water. His expression was stiff, his gaze completely blank, now fully under the control of the storyteller machine.

However, every word or action directed by the storyteller machine expended the [Protagonist Aura]’s power, which was the reason for Victor’s pre-mission training, to ensure that he could at least perform basic tasks and save power.

They never expected Negary’s Face of G.o.d inspiration would cause Victor to show signs of rebelling, thus having no choice but to use the mental handicap weapon prepared for Negary on Victor.

〖 They really held nothing back to get rid of me, huh? 〗

Negary was now standing on the surface of the dim water with something seemingly swimming beneath him.

He had already performed a.n.a.lysis towards the water under his feet. This water seemed to be related to one’s trauma, capable of rousing all of an individual’s traumas while they were submerged within it.

And almost none of the people of Site C4 managed to avoid the effects of this traumatic water. For D-cla.s.s personnel, the majority of them were death row prisoners convicted due to violent crimes, so as they were submerged, they either curled up into a fetal position or turned unusually aggressive.

Aside from very few who were provoked into committing crimes, most violent criminals become how they were due to their daily lives and living environment. All of them more or less carried some sort of personal trauma or personality defects; being submerged in the traumatic water caused all of it to explode.

The members of Site C4 who weren’t D-cla.s.s personnel also didn’t fare any better. How could anyone who came into contact with anomalies and the Foundation’s grey practices year-round not carry trauma? This resulted in almost everyone at Site C4 falling to the effects.

Only a minority managed to escape the effects of the traumatic water, but what awaited them was the collateral damage of the supernatural battle above them, as well as the increasingly more anomalies who broke containment. Even worse, the dome still hadn’t been removed at this point.

Mutated, unshapely limbs were madly swinging all over the place, destroying everything in its surroundings, as typical of how most people vented their frustration from failure. Like how a gamer would usually start banging their table and keyboard or throwing their mouse and controller.

Having become a beast of frustration representing all failures, Bennett Foddy’s original characteristic of being incapable of destruction had now changed into nothing but destruction, crus.h.i.+ng even Negary’s viruses inside the things he destroyed.

On the other hand, the ‘I wanna’ mini-man had also been mutated, his blood was now a mix of black and red, each of his deaths spread this mixture of blood further onto his surroundings. The ominous writhing black-red blood was capable of killing Negary’s viruses just by touching them.

Hovering in mid-air, the Collector unleashed more and more of his collection from beneath his cloak. The air was now pretty much filled with collected creatures of various shapes and sizes, although the majority of them were the disembodied heads of savage tribesmen, as the Collector liked to collect humanoid creatures.

These collected creatures were madly devouring everything in their surroundings; anything they consumed would then quickly become a part of the Collector’s collection. Even Negary’s viruses would be converted by the Collector’s rules and turned into a muddy, fleshy blob creature.

Wielding his sword, the Armor unleashed a spatial slash to destroy Negary’s viruses through the power of s.p.a.ce.

The viruses that infected this area quickly decreased. These four anomalies all carried considerable destructive power, so once they had completely let themselves go, this s.p.a.ce became a heaven of destruction.

However, while they were indeed capable of destroying Negary’s viruses, his strongest characteristic was his vitality, and anything that couldn’t kill him could only make him stronger.

From underneath the water that didn’t seem to let any light through, a giant golden hand suddenly erupted out from below and grabbed the destructive frustration beast.

The frustration beast madly continued its rampage, causing the hand to continuously break down, spilling glittering golden blood all over the water. However unlike before, the broken parts did not undergo necrosis, even as they dropped into the water, they quickly returned to the giant hand that was growing increasingly larger.

〖 3 minutes 27 seconds, destructive cus.h.i.+on thermal energy storage installment completed 〗

The frustration beast’s destructive capabilities had been a.n.a.lyzed and a counteracting measure was quickly devised. The viruses’ connective structure was changed, interlinking like a chain of beads that spread the frustration beast’s power throughout itself layer upon layer, ultimately converting back into kinetic energy to hold the frustration beast down.

Without being able to surpa.s.s the upper limit of this power conversion system, the frustration beast’s power would only become its own chains.

The mini-man also wasn’t in a better spot, being constantly stuck in a constant death loop. Negary had sealed off the mini-man’s save point, limiting it to a zone in s.p.a.ce with numerous spatial spikes, countless golden viruses were suicidally jumping into the mixed-blood splatter at the point of the mini-man’s death, then quickly mutated to counter this power.

〖 4 minutes 39 seconds, emotional endurance viruses have been conceived, moving forward to the next topic: constant state restructuring research 〗

Meanwhile, a few of the hovering collected creatures in the sky had already turned golden at some unknown point in time, golden spots were also appearing around the Collector’s body. While it was true that he had been consuming and converting Negary’s viruses into his collection, Negary’s viruses had also been using that opportunity to infect him in return.

〖 6 minutes 52 seconds, collected creature conversion counteraction completed 〗

The golden spots were growing increasingly larger on top of the Collector’s body, he wanted to stop consuming these viruses, but his actions were no longer dictated by his mind.

Only the Armor had been able to persevere the longest. Whoever created him had an extremely profound level of understanding of ‘existence’, causing the Armor to remain in an ever-constant state. While this made sure that he could never improve or grow, it also made him nearly impossible to destroy or infect. There was essentially no opening to invade him, at least, not one that Negary can currently recognize.

…

Inside a certain containment chamber at Site S1, there was a piece of parchment in the shape of a scroll, which contained various code numbers, the unusual a.s.sembled unit’s code numbers. Currently, a golden glow had appeared on the Collector’s and Bennett Foddy’s codenames on top of the parchment paper, which was continuously spreading like it wanted to infect the entire piece of parchment.

The mini-man’s codename had both a black and a golden glow, one represented Negary while the other represented The Wickedness of the World.

Observing the Unusual a.s.sembling Order’s changes from the shadow, the members of the E5 council fell into thought. After a few moments of pondering, one of them made a suggestion:

“I propose we activate S-1-2, [REDACTED]”

“I object, that thing has already caused 21 alterations in the world’s timeline, there is no telling what would happen to the world on the 22nd alteration”

“I concur, leaving Negary to continue infecting the world would only lead to an even worse outcome”

“I concur!”
