Chapter 15 - Chapter 15: Demons From Hell?

Seeing this, the audience in the live broadcast room was a little surprised.

Build a factory around 1983?

Could it be that this 1983 is something that doesn't move?

Could it be that the 'Gate of Death,'

Is it really just a door?

[According to Chi-13 protocol, all mobile task force personnel must have strong religious beliefs.]

[All ammunition boxes must contain silver or silver-plated bullets.]

[The front door of SCP-1983-1 is to be monitored 24 hours a day. Guards are to engage any instances of SCP-1983-2 that appear. No personnel are to come within 5 meters of SCP-1983-2 beyond the limits of scheduled testing protocols.]

Nick Fury saw the content appear again, which seemed to confirm his previous guess.

As for what we need to deal with, it is most likely the so-called SCP-1983-2.

Nick Fury couldn't help but wonder in his mind, what could it be?

Vampire?

Werewolf?

Or... a devil?

[Description: SCP-1983-1 is a single-story farmhouse located in [DATA EXPUNGED]. It has been abandoned since 1968 following a series of religious murders linked to a "Satanic cult". Please see SCP-xxx[DATA EXPUNGED] Capture Log for further details.]

Cult?

After seeing this word, the audience in the live broadcast room were all dizzy.

Isn't it abnormal?

How did it get involved with a cult again?

[Upon opening the front door of SCP-1983-1, spatial anomalies appear to occur. No matter or light other than instances of SCP-1983-2 has been observed to escape from the doorway.]

[SCP-1983-1 can be entered through other entrances, including windows, back doors, and any entrances opened from the rear of SCP-1983-1.]

[Attempts to drill holes into SCP-1983-1's antechamber from the outside have resulted in the same spatial anomaly, though no instances of SCP-1983-2 have been observed to emerge. Further damage to the walls is prohibited by O5 order due to the potential increase in the number of potential SCP-1983-2 instances.]

Kamar-Taj.

After a period of recovery, Ancient One's condition has improved a lot.

At least the ability to think has been initially restored.

An apprentice asked in confusion: "A spatial anomaly? Does such a strange place really exist?"

Ancient One sighed:

"The inter-dimensional teleportation you are learning involves the laws of space. The interiors of those abnormal spaces are completely distorted and in chaos."

Although he was very curious about the so-called spatial anomaly of SCP-1983-1, after experiencing the previous accident, Ancient One rationally chose to give up the exploration.

[SCP-1983-2 is a bipedal monster 1.8 meters tall. They have a vague humanoid shape and are completely black. They are extremely aggressive and will attack any human they see.]

[When an instance of SCP-1983-2 comes into contact with a human, they will attack the victim's chest cavity by extending their upper limbs, but will not cause any superficial damage to the skin or tissue.]

[Through unknown means, they then remove the victim's heart, thereby killing him. Once the human heart is obtained, the SCP-1983-2 instance returns to SCP-1983-1.]

Demon?

It's really a devil!

Seeing this, the entire live broadcast room instantly became boiling.

"Damn it! Damn it! Isn't this the devil described in the Bible?"

"Taking a heart from a distance, oh my god, this is so scary..."

"How can this be the gate to the realm of death? This is the gate to hell!"

The audience was venting their shock crazily.

And inside SHIELD.

A group of senior executives and agents were all frowning.

Especially Nick Fury.

Even if he had guessed this at the beginning, when the guess came true,

He still couldn't help feeling a little scared.

An agent asked tremblingly:

"···Can something like this really be killed?"

Nick Fury narrowed his eyes and added, "The most important thing is, there is most likely more than one SCP-1983-2!"

Nick Fury shuddered subconsciously at the thought of the overwhelming demons pouring into the world.

That would be the end of the world!

Stark Industries Building.

"JARVIS, did you notice that?" Tony leaned back in his office chair, looking up at the sky.

JARVIS: "Notice what?"

Tony frowned and said, "SCP-1983-2, those demons, once they obtain the heart, they will immediately return to the behavior in SCP-1983-1..."

"What does Master mean?"

Tony's eyes sparkled with thought, and he said in a deep voice: "This reminds me of an insect that also exists in our world..."

"You mean... ants?"

"That's right! It's the ants!" Tony stood up and paced back and forth while thinking:

"After the worker ants leave the nest and find food, they each bring it back to the hive and eventually give it to..."

Tony raised his head and trembled as he spoke his final guess:

"Queen Ant!"

Thinking of this, he suddenly raised his head and looked at the screen.

So...

The devil's queen ant...

What is it exactly?

[Firing silver bullets while praying is the only known method of killing SCP-1983-2.]

[The content of the prayer and the faith of the person praying are not important, as long as the person praying is sincere enough.]

[Once an SCP-1983-2 is killed, its body appears to "evaporate," leaving behind only a layer of sulfur.]

Seeing this, the audience breathed a sigh of relief.

At the very least, SCP-1983-2 is not invincible.

The Foundation still has a way to kill demons.

But,

The audience couldn't help but feel worried for Leon Lake, a D-class personnel, when they thought about him having to come into contact with these demons with his bare hands.

Besides, everyone is curious.

SCP-1983's derivatives alone are so terrifying, what can Leon Lake and his group of D-class personnel do?

Most importantly,

How exactly does Dr. Kondraki intend to contain SCP-1983?
