Inside Yellowstone Mountain?
The audience in the live broadcast room subconsciously recalled the scene of Yellowstone Mountain turning into a sea of fire in an instant, and they were all suddenly silent.
But new doubts arose.
What are flowers?
Ten raised his hands to stop yet another chorus of questions and complaints.
He actively explained: "The flower is an SCP black box..."
"It has, until now, been known only to four Overseers: Me, One, Two, and Thirteen.
This is the reset button for the entire universe."
Cosmic…
Reset button?
When this sentence appeared on the screen, the audience, who were still immersed in the mood of the Foundation's restart of the world, completely lost the ability to think.
S.H.I.E.L.D.
Nick Fury's pupils shrank to a point, and cold sweat had already wet his back.
The fact that the Foundation could restart the world had already overturned his cognition.
However, until this moment, he completely let go of his obsession with comparing S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Foundation.
This is an ability that exceeds the limits of human technology!
Not only humans, but even the oldest and most powerful beings in the universe cannot do this!
Restart the universe!
It's so scary...
In the picture.
Ten's statement caused a moment of silence in the room.
"Ten would oversimplify this, definitely put it hastily."
"Due to time constraints, I don't think I have time to tell these old fogies about the whole 'World-Transforming Flower' and 'Multiverse Observer'," Ten said calmly.
Hearing this, Nick Fury outside the screen suddenly became anxious!
Who says there is no time?
You're just saying that!
"Everyone else now just needs to know that the flower is the dividing point between many different possibilities.
It is originally the most stable point on Earth.
That's why we put the ultimate measure, the human race recovery system, on it."
Ten narrated calmly, as if he was talking about an insignificant and ordinary thing.
"Unfortunately," Ten continued:
"Yellowstone happens to be an unstable, long overdue supervolcano, which is why... Dr. Null... was assigned to find a way to replicate the flower's effects elsewhere, in hopes of moving or replicating it to a more stable location."
He sighed, "Even more unfortunately, something went wrong. Now instead of keeping the parallel universes separate, the flower is pulling them together."
The audience in the live broadcast room tried to use their imagination to imagine that scene, but their brains ended up being a mess.
"Isn't there still a Scranton Reality Anchor near that thing?" asked the figure sitting in Nine's seat.
[Scranton Reality Anchor: A device that can stabilize the Hume index around it, named after its inventor, Dr. Robert Scranton.]
"The Scranton Reality Anchors around that thing are the only reason our universe hasn't disappeared yet," Ten explained. "If I may...?"
As he spoke, he typed a command on his keyboard and an image appeared on the screen behind him.
The image shows a small blue ball that appears to be entangled in some kind of yellow force field represented by lines.
"This is a false-color picture of current mathematical reality." Ten explained:
"The blue spheres represent dependent timelines and Schrödinger-type uncertainty. The yellow vortex represents separate timelines and universes. This image was taken over as a project at one of our existing research facilities last year."
He clicked a command, and the image suddenly moved: "This is a real-time picture."
The image, which had been mostly still before, now swirled and bubbled, like a yellow flower floating in a sea of foam.
Slowly but inexorably, the flowers began to come together.
The voice of Ten also rang out.
"Timelines are like photons and anti-photons," Ten said:
"When two separate and incompatible timelines intersect, the result is mutual annihilation. When these flowers bring the nearby realities closer to us, the result is unpredictable."
Seeing this, some quick-thinking viewers in the live broadcast room already had a vague concept in their minds.
Ten clicked a command, and then a line of words "Event Plan Sequence" appeared on the screen.
"The first cosmic crossover would cause the space-time membrane that surrounds our reality to collapse, and cause and effect would no longer exist. Events would no longer exist uniquely in time."
He paused: "When Schrödinger's famous cat is both alive and dead at the same time, there would be two cats, one alive and one dead, both coexisting. This is definitely impossible, so both cats would annihilate together."
Seeing this, some viewers' thoughts gradually became clear!
The timelines of parallel worlds intersect, causing the collapse of time and space—annihilation!
Barrages of comments also flooded into the live broadcast room.
"Damn it, I didn't expect to have to take a physics class after the memory exposure!"
"Physics? This is f*****g science fiction. No, even science fiction doesn't dare to write this way! This is magic, a miracle!"
"This is shocking, oh my god, this is just... oh no, this is not even God's business!"
"It's crazy, it's absolutely crazy!"
"..."
S.H.I.E.L.D.
Nick Fury looked at the top physicist on his team.
The other party adjusted his glasses and said in a deep voice: "Theoretically, this possibility does exist!"
He also drew a suggested model diagram on the screen: "When the timelines of the two space-times begin to intersect, events will no longer exist uniquely in time!"
Natasha Romanoff seemed to understand: "So, the previous doomsday scene actually happened in a parallel world?"
"It is most likely so."
Nick Fury couldn't help but frown when he heard this and asked, "So what happens after the timeline intersects? Annihilation?"
The physicist shook his head: "It is impossible to infer!"
In the picture, there is bitterness on everyone's face.
"The annihilation reaction will release unimaginable amounts of energy. This energy will accelerate the convergence process, bringing more parallel universes together faster."
On the screen, the flowers folded together, swirled, and disappeared into gray foam until nothing existed anymore...
Nothingness...
There are no shocking scenes and no exaggerated numbers.
There was only a simple blank space, but it brought an unprecedented fear to everyone.
"That," said Ten, "is the result."
"ZK-Class Reality Failure Scenario," One sighed.
[ZK-class reality failure scenario: reality undergoes a fundamental collapse or obliteration. Usually caused by physics or some SCP that can annihilate things.]
Kamar-Taj.
The Ancient One stared at the screen in the sky in silence for a long time.
All the shock and worry finally turned into a long sigh.
The Sorcerer Supreme's duty is to protect Blue Planet and its inhabitants from invasions by creatures from other dimensions.
Every Sorcerer Supreme needs to have extremely high magical ability in order to fight against enemies who have been spying on the earth for a long time.
During the hundreds of years that the Ancient One became the Sorcerer Supreme, she prevented one powerful enemy after another from invading Blue Planet.
She even forced back the overlord of the dark dimension, Dormammu, several times!
When she traveled through the multi-universe, she also met the cosmic god "Eternity". The Eye of Agamotto was given by "Eternity" to the Ancient One.
She thought that she was already extremely strong both physically and mentally.
However,
It was not until she saw the world of the Foundation that she realized what it meant to be a frog in a well.
Divine beings, gods, supreme divinity…
Reality distorts, reality collapses, reality disappears...
If any of these things were brought to Blue Star, the Ancient One would not be able to resist it.
Thinking of this, she sighed again.
Comforting herself:
At least, these things won't happen on Blue Star, right?
Asgard.
Loki's face at the moment no longer had the arrogance he had before, instead there was lingering worry.
He originally thought that God was the most powerful being in the universe.
Until this moment,
He found out he was wrong...
The power of gods is based on reality.
But if reality disappears and everything becomes nothingness,
So, is God still God?
No matter how shocked the audience of the Marvel world is, the fact has already happened in the world of the Foundation.
After hearing Ten's words, the atmosphere in the room became extremely depressing.
"I don't think there's a term for what's going to happen, but it's coming," Ten admitted.
"Unless we do something in the next few hours, we will lose everything. We have a last-ditch emergency plan, but the chances of success are slim. The only other option is to deal with the flowers originally, which would require access to the Yellowstone Mountain facility."
Entering the Yellowstone Mountain facility?
"Do we have any personnel there who can respond promptly?" One asked.
"Only one team," Ten admitted.
When Ten said this, everyone suddenly remembered...
Leon Lake and the others seem to still be there...
Then, a shocking idea emerged in everyone's mind.
Could it be that Ten was referring to them?
"Mobile Task Force Omega-7: Pandora's Box. Team Able is currently out of contact, but we have managed to connect with members of Team Iris. Led by a junior researcher and two agents, the researchers and agents will be in the facility within the hour!"
Someone immediately questioned: "A low-level researcher?"
"To be precise, he is a Medium-level researcher. Kondraki submitted a promotion application for him yesterday." Ten paused and added:
"We don't have any more men."
As he spoke, Ten pulled out a file: "Leon has received complete Mobile Task Force training, and all his qualities are top-notch. He should have joined the Red Right Hand."
"The person who was supposed to join the Red Right Hand became a researcher. Hum, interesting." The voices of doubt disappeared.
"Does anyone want to add anything?" One asked.
Seeing no one talking,
"Then deploy them," he continued, "and keep me informed."
The leader of the O5 Council turned to Ten: "Take care of this matter. Do whatever you need. You have full access to any Foundation property until this crisis is over."
Ten nodded in response.
After listening to the conversation, the audience in the live broadcast room was silent at first, and then suddenly exploded!
"WTF? Are you kidding me? I'm being drafted again?"
"Damn, Leon Lake's luck is so bad, isn't he? He's just a low-level researcher?"
"But the problem is, they are the only ones there right now!"
"Shit! I suddenly understand what Lois said, 'at any cost,' and Leon Lake and the others are the so-called 'cost'!"
"..."
There was a lot of curses in the live broadcast room, but everyone knew that no one could resist the foundation's appointment.
An ethics committee?
Maybe there is a Lun in this room.
Senior members of the Management Committee!
Besides, the prerequisite for finding the Ethics Committee is to be able to see them alive...
At this moment, the picture on the screen suddenly changed.
The audience, who were still filled with indignation in the previous second, saw the strange Yellowstone Mountain in the picture in the next second, and then they were speechless in an instant.
Yellowstone Mountain has basically stabilized.
But at the moment, it is even weirder than before, like a VHS tape
No!
Rather than looking like a crappy VHS tape, it now looks blurry and translucent, like an out-of-focus photograph.
Every moment it flickers and shifts, as if other possibilities of itself exist within this reality.
Everyone's mind involuntarily recalled what Ten had said before -
"When the timelines of two space-times begin to intersect, events no longer exist uniquely in time."
Obviously, Yellowstone Mountain is in such a state now!
Three transport vehicles approached the helicopter that landed at the foot of the mountain, and twelve soldiers got off.
One of the soldiers, a stocky man with dark skin and electric blue eyeshadow, stood up in front of the car, carrying three equipment bags.
He dropped the two bags to the ground at the feet of Adrian and Beatrice.
Then he came to Leon Lake with the last one in his hand and said sternly: "Excuse me, Doctor, I'm afraid this mission is not suitable for you."
Beatrice beside her was carelessly taking off her windbreaker and pajamas and changing into combat gear.
Upon hearing this, she froze in place, then looked at Leon Lake in astonishment: "Leon, you want to participate in the mission too?"
Adrian was also confused: "Damn it, I thought Leon's mission was to escort Iris back to the base!"
The black man shrugged. "Not only that, Leon will be a member of your Iris team."
"Shit," Adrian complained, pulling on grey digital camouflage pants.
Adrian was about to dissuade Leon Lake, but found that he was already dressed.
Especially the spirit and energy he displayed was even more eye-catching than that of the members of their mobile task force.
After taking another look at his medal, Adrian and Beatrice stood at attention:
"Lieutenant!"
