Chapter 55

"There are people in the flames. Some survivors call them flame elves, and some people call them Balrogs. If no support is sent from above, the fire may be completely out of control and spread to the entirety of America." After the fire department chief finished speaking, he took out a tablet and handed it to Coulson.

A fire map is displayed on the screen.

Unlike a normal fire, Coulson found that the fire was spreading in all directions, even against the wind.

Seeing this, Coulson finally realized the seriousness of the matter.

SCP!

There must be an SCP doing the trick behind the scenes!

Such a strange fire can only be explained by supernatural phenomena.

"No! I have to report this matter to the bureau..."

Coulson, who left in a hurry, finally made the first call to Jason.

Compared to S.H.I.E.L.D, Coulson obviously believes in the Foundation's professional ability more.

Although he is an undercover agent, putting aside his position for a moment, the Foundation's professionalism in dealing with paranormal phenomena is indeed a lot better than the S.H.I.E.L.D.

"President, something terrible is going on here! I found traces of new SCP here, and the preliminary judgment is that it is an SCP related to flames."

Listening to Coulson's report, Jason replied calmly "Understood, you don't need to take care of this, I will send someone to deal with it, you continue to be in charge of the SCP -MC-24-Mjolnir."

"Cough...that..."

Coulson was embarrassed, hesitating, not knowing what to say.

"Say what you want to!" Jason looked straight at him and asked what he wanted to say.

Towards Coulson, Jason had no goodwill and he naturally would not give him any face while talking. Even if the other party worked hard, it still couldn't change the fact that the other party had bad intentions for him.

"If there is no accident, we have to retreat. The fire caused by the fire-related SCP is about to spread towards the area we are currently residing in."

"So fast?" Jason hearing this was shocked.

One must know that the place where SCP-457- Fireman descended was the small town of Yassac, a small town on the east side of New Mexico.

The location of Mjolnir is located in the north of New Mexico, and the distance between the two is only about 40 kilometers.

What is the concept of a distance of more than 40 kilometers? The combined diameter of the two cities is estimated to be this length!

This means that in just one night, Fireman burned nearly two cities, or even more?

'What to do? Do I want to stop it now?' Jason after thinking this, turned on the system and looked at the fame value balance.

This fire that burned so high had spread its chaos throughout the whole of America and it had directly brought him the fame value of nearly one million.

If SCP-457- fireman is allowed to continue to run free like this, then his legendary value is estimated to exceed 10 million in less than three days.

But should he let it run free for three more days?

That level of SCP-457- Fireman, does the Foundation really have the ability to stop it?

[A/N: That level here means when it will grow to a humongous level, since it grows after consuming fuel(which are combustible things), after three days it is estimated that it will have a army of its own]

Endless greed and careful restraint.

The two options kept colliding in Jason's mind.

Natasha next to him did not speak, but stared straight at Jason.

She definitely hoped that Jason would send the Foundation to stop it soon.

After all, the Foundation has this Ability, and at the base under his feet has a weather weapon that can control the weather.

As long as the Foundation is willing to pay the price, this disaster can be contained.

But doing so would inevitably expose the existence of the Foundation.

It won't be just S.H.I.E.L.D who will have their eyes on the Foundation by then.

At that time, all agent departments, military departments, and politicians will turn into hungry wolves and want to eat a bite of fat on the Foundation.

After hanging up the phone, Jason exhaled heavily.

Then took Natasha to the command room.

Dr. S96 at this moment was constantly busy in front of a projection, as if making a plan.

"Doctor, that fire..."

Before Jason asked, Dr. s96 interrupted "Container-457- Fireman, this is the number given to it by the Foundation, it has already caused a certain danger to human beings, the suggestion given by the Foundation is to contain it immediately."

Looking at the serious Dr. s96, the morality and reason in Jason's heart instantly occupied the high ground.

"What's the plan then?"

In the face of the most primitive greed, Jason finally chose kindness.

"The Foundation will deploy weather weapons to bring New Mexico into a 15-day period of heavy rain, and then our firefighters will prepare state-of-the-art fire extinguishers and baffles to join the SCP operation."

Dr. s96's plan sounds simple at first, and it is not difficult to implement.

But Jason was acutely aware of the flaws in the plan.

"Can't the 15-day rainstorm period be shortened?"

Jason asked worriedly.

"No! Weather weapons can't be used frequently. To make New Mexico rain heavily, the rainy period must be at least 15 days."

"What about the floods caused by the 15-day torrential rain?"

Dr. s96 spread his hands and said apologetically: "The endless flames or the short-lived floods, the people of America must choose one."

Jason: "..."

Jason took a deep look at the muscular man in front of him.

Those who can get into the management of the foundation are not really good people.

After this flood, New Mexico's economy has to go back at least 10 years.

But without this flood, the Fireman might have turned the entire New Mexico into a scorched earth.

In the choice of two evils, Jason chose the lesser evil, which was the second option!
