I'm In Charge of SCP

Chapter 16 "Down in the Containment Area"

A containment breach? Zhang Jue was a bit helpless, this kind of event only occurred on a rare occasion, and they were caught on such an unfortunate moment. The impact of a containment breach can be big or small. If it's just a monster like SCP-682, then it'll be easy, a few missiles can solve the problem, but if it's something else that's terrifying got out, that's bad news.

Knowing Yang Xue's expression, it seems that the situation was terrible. After the alarm went off, the entire site was in a state of emergency—the security team was stationed at their assigned position to prepare for the unexpected.

After only a few minutes, a heavily armed team of security personnel passed by Zhang Jue and the others. Zhang Jue and Yang Xue were both B-Class personnel, and according to the SCP Foundation constitution, they should have been moved to a safe zone immediately in the event of a containment breach.

But Yang Xue was in charge so that she refused to be the first to be escorted and took the initiative to help the security personnel evacuate the site staff. Zhang Jue could only assist her by quickly evacuating the researchers who were still working. It was a good thing that their current location was on floor B2, not the core of the site that contained most of the anomalies. Even so, if there was an anomaly that escaped, it shouldn't be a problem for now.

"Boom!"

A massive explosion came from beneath their feet, accompanied by violent vibrations. The security personnel below were already engaged in a fierce battle with the anomalies that had breached their containment.

To ensure safety, the building material used by the Foundation as a containment room was very thick steel plates and other special materials filled between each floor. Two of them can feel the explosion, and they can see that the battle below was fierce to an extent. They don't know what containment rooms are left to hold the anomalies.

"Okay, we should go now!" Zhang Jue sent the last group of researchers up the elevator, and Zhang Jue shouted to Yang Xue.

The security team had all gone to fight the anomalies, the Mobile Task Force should arrive within half an hour, and on the current B2 floor, they were the only two left. Yang Xue hesitated somewhat reluctantly.

Such a large-scale containment breach like this was the first time it happened in Site-14, and she doesn't know how long the security team members on the site can hold them out. But she knew that there was nothing that she could have done to stop it when it came to this situation. The cause of the accident could not be investigated until the problem was resolved, and there was just no telling how many innocent people would have to be sacrificed this time.

Seeing Yang Xue nod, Zhang Jue reached out to press the elevator before he could reach the door. Hearing only a big explosion, the floor beneath their feet shook violently, and a few moments later, it crumbled inch by inch and fell downward. The two didn't even have time to let out a scream before they fell into the abyss along with the debris.

"Ugh..." Zhang Jue felt his body was in pain as if all his bones had shattered.

A conservative estimate was that he had just fallen a straight line of at least twenty meters. If he hadn't possessed Shirley's self-healing ability, he probably would have been a pile of minced meat by now. He was surrounded by darkness, with only a little light coming from the hole above his head.

Zhang Jue fumbled around with the pain and found Yang Xue, not knowing how badly she was hurt. "Wake up, wake up." He gently patted Yang Xue's face.

He used his body to protect Yang Xue during the fall, but falling from such a high place, even with his body as a cushion, the chance of injury or even death was still high. The good thing was that Yang Xue's body seemed unharmed, and after a short period, she woke up.
