He woke up in the morning.
Aurora had already left. Bruce didn’t know what she was doing outside.
He heard a series of knocks on the door.
“Aurora?!” Bruce reacted subconsciously.
But the moment he opened the door, he was stunned.
‘Damn!’
‘Who are these people? ‘
They looked very professional. Everyone was fully armed, carrying guns and ammunition.
It was as if they had walked out of a movie. Bruce was a little stunned for a moment. ‘What was going on.’
‘Why did the other party come to find me?’
“Hello, is this Mr. Bruce?!”
The leader of the group, a man in a suit, took out a red and black business card. He handed it to Bruce.
The moment he took over the business card, they immediately said to the other end of the walkie-talkie, “Confirmed. It’s an intelligent type of vessel. Level unknown.”
Vessel. Bruce was still a little puzzled. He looked at the business card.
PFFT!
‘It’s the SCP Foundation!’
‘It’s the renowned organization that dealt with supernatural incidents…’
‘And they said vessel?!’
‘Who leaked the news?!’
‘That’s not right!’
‘Who told you that I was taking care of things?!’
‘Bruce was a human, alright!?’
“I am. What’s the matter?”
“SCP Foundation. This is the first time I’ve seen a real person. You guys are the PI-1 Task Force, right? You’re in charge of a special mobile unit in the city.”
Some time ago, when Bruce was bored, he happened to read their information, so he had some understanding of these special mobile units.
The special team in front of him piqued Bruce’s interest. He even thought that the other party would come looking for him because of something.
He just did not expect that it would be here soon!
After Bruce spoke, the other party’s nervous mood clearly relaxed a lot.
‘Was it because I had confirmed that I am an intelligent creature?!’
‘What a joke.’
This was completely different from his impression of being tall and handsome!
“If that’s the case, then it’s easy to talk. I hope that you can cooperate with us and return to the foundation for a check-up. If you don’t pose any threat, we will send you back.”
Hearing this, Bruce laughed lightly.
“What if I tell you that I won’t go out?”
Bruce asked calmly, but his eyes were filled with danger.
“Then we might have to force it.”
“Report, the item has developed a rebellious mood and is unwilling to step out of its own house. It may be due to some inevitable contact, so we have decided to force it to be taken in!”
The moment the black-clothed man finished speaking, his body had already hidden behind the fully armed Pi-1 squad. The remaining Pi-1 members were ready to shoot.
“Ding! Congratulations to the host for overcoming the danger of an F -rank house-leaving crisis. 1 point rewarded!”
“Just you guys?”
Bruce was too lazy to waste his breath on them. He directly penetrated the man in black with his Dragon’s Breath.
In his opinion, this was retarded.
The power of the Dragon’s Breath was too strong. It penetrated through two rooms before stopping. The Pi-1 had almost turned into ashes.
If not for Bruce’s deliberate actions, they would not have survived.
“Ding! Congratulations to the host for overcoming the danger of an F -rank house-leaving crisis. 1 point rewarded!”
“I’m telling you for the last time. I’m not a vessel, I’m just an ordinary person who knows some magic.”
“If you still insist on taking me in, then I won’t be polite this time.”
Although Bruce’s tone was calm, it sounded like a demon’s whisper to the Pi-1 unit.
An ordinary human could spit out a breath like lava?!
Seeing this, the vice-captain of the Pi-1 unit immediately rushed forward and did the following actions.
He took off his bulletproof helmet and gloves.
“Sorry, our captain was nervous just now.” He glanced at the former captain who was half-naked showed no emotion. Then he smiled and said, “Now Pi-1 is under my control. I’m the new captain, Pi-1-013794. You can call me Lexus.”
With that, Lexus reached out his hand.
Seeing Lexus’ expression, Bruce shook his hand with doubt.
“Tell me, what’s the matter? Otherwise, don’t bother me anymore.”
After what happened just now, Bruce was too lazy to continue talking to them.
If you were a guest, then Bruce would naturally entertain you.
But if you were an enemy, then sorry, all of you should die!
Especially now that he had to constantly pay attention to the house-leaving crisis, he didn’t have time to negotiate with them!
“Then can I come in?”
“Only I can go in, they’ll wait for me here.”
Lexus said to Bruce, “The ex-captain’s attitude is indeed wrong. Using the word ‘vessel’ is indeed a little disrespectful to you.”
Hearing this, Bruce realized that the other party was indeed much more polite than the previous one, so he nodded and turned around to sit on the sofa.
Seeing this, Lexus understood what he meant. He followed him in and closed the door behind him.
This series of operations was not something that the SCP Foundation could do.
When they saw Lexus enter so easily, they were shocked. Then, they fell into deep thought.
“Maybe our method was wrong. We’ve encountered this situation before. As long as we don’t provoke the other party, they will usually cooperate with our foundation, right?”
“What are you talking about?! Cooperate? The spell just now was the same as the dragon’s breath. It was definitely not something that an ordinary person could use. From this, it can be seen that he is a dangerous object with an unstable mood. I suggest that we execute him immediately!”
“No, I think we should wait. Since Lexus has already entered, we should negotiate and see what the other party’s goal is. Perhaps we can learn some information from the conversation.”
“I also suggest that we communicate with each other. Otherwise, the price we have to pay might be higher than what we can imagine!”
A few researchers looked at the big screen and discussed. In the end, they said into the microphone, “Lexus, don’t alarm the other party. Continue to communicate like this. If there is any situation, we will take them in.”
But at this moment, Lexus took off his earphones when he heard this.
“They thought you were a dangerous species. You were a little too rash just now,” Lexus said with a smile.
Then, he crushed the earphones.
He also took off all his equipment and started to search for snacks in the kitchen. Then, he took out two cans of beer from the fridge and placed them in front of Bruce’s table.
“Hahahaha, I didn’t expect you to have potato chips at home. Perfect.”
Lexus sat down on the sofa, opened the beer and started drinking on his own.
