Marvel: I Started by Containing SCPs

Chapter 279: Chapter 279



["The results of the experiment were shocking. In the first group, where all the test subjects watched the cursed videotape together, they all succumbed to the mysterious virus and died of heart failure precisely seven days later."]

["However, in the second group, only the last person to watch the tape died. The earlier viewers survived, suggesting that the curse could be transferred to another person simply by showing them the tape."]

["This confirmed that the virus was being spread through the videotape itself. Anyone who watched its contents would be infected and die in seven days. Researchers examined the tape and found that it was no different from a regular videotape—there was no trace of any physical virus. This meant that the virus was being transmitted directly through the visual content of the tape."]

Upon hearing this, everyone was left dumbfounded, staring at the screen in disbelief.

Tony Stark: "What the fuck?! Are you crazy?!"

Tony Stark: "How is this even possible?! A virus spreading through a video? That completely defies scientific logic!"

Strange: "This is beyond absurd. How can a virus be linked to an electronic medium? Watching a tape leading to an infection makes no sense—unless the tape itself physically contains a virus."

Natasha: "The screen just explained that the tape itself has no virus. It infects people simply by watching it? That's… actually similar to my ability."

Diana: "Wait, you can do something like this?!"

Natasha: "Yes. After my brain potential was unlocked, I gained the ability to sense when someone is watching me through surveillance cameras. It works by using electromagnetic waves to penetrate electronic devices and detect brainwaves."

Bruce Wayne: "That's different from what this tape is doing. Your ability is about sensing people through electromagnetic waves, but this tape supposedly transmits a virus through visuals. Can you do that?"

Natasha: "No, I can't."

Wong: "By Vishanti! This must be a curse—using the videotape as a medium to deliver the curse!"

Strange: "Does such magic actually exist?"

Ancient One: "Yes, though it falls under dark magic. We generally avoid using it."

Dan: "This is terrifying! Could it be that the woman in the video is the one spreading the virus? She looks exactly like the figure shown earlier. She must be behind this!"

Daigo: "A ghost using modern technology to kill people… That's insane!"

Gen: "Have ghosts really adapted to technology?"

Chopper: "As a doctor, I can't accept this! This completely overturns the fundamental principles of medicine!"

Marco: "I get how you feel. I thought my medical knowledge was advanced, but compared to this, it seems primitive!"

Nobita: "Wait a second! We just watched that videotape too! Won't we die in seven days?!"

Usopp: "Wha-wha-wha—WHAT?! I don't want to die!!!"

Gian: "Don't scare me like that! I refuse to go out like this!"

Suneo: "MOM!!!"

Seiya: "Calm down, everyone! Stop scaring yourselves!"

Tony Stark: "Seiya's right. This screen protects us from harmful effects, so don't overthink it—we'll be fine!"

Nobita: "That's… a relief…"

Odin: "This ghost is clever. To be able to spread a virus through video waves… quite a fascinating trick compared to the spirits I've encountered."

Krillin: "But why does showing the tape to someone else remove the curse?"

Yamcha: "Maybe it's to spread her influence and make more people aware of her?"

Wong: "That makes sense! This ghost must be using fear as a way to strengthen herself. The more people fear her, the stronger she becomes!"

Rogers: "Then, by passing on the curse, people are actually helping her grow stronger?"

Wong: "That's very likely."

Regulus: "So… this is a videotape? And what's that machine playing it? Looks kind of interesting."

Seiya: "Cough Regulus, that's not the point right now."

Sengoku: "This technology resembles our Den Den Mushi projection system."

Naruto: "We don't have anything like this in our world."

Bruce Wayne: "For now, we should focus on the real issue at hand."

As the discussion continued, the screen displayed new information.

["We also made a startling discovery—though both men and women who watched the tape would die, there were distinct differences in their deaths."]

The screen changed to show a female death row inmate convulsing violently, seemingly in agony. She, too, had watched the cursed videotape, and after seven days, she was now facing her doom.

However, something strange was happening—her stomach was swelling unnaturally.

["Ugh… ughhh…!!"]

[The woman groaned in pain, clutching both her abdomen and chest. Her posture resembled that of a woman in labor, as if she were giving birth.]

[Eventually, she died. It was unclear whether it was due to cardiac arrest or another cause. But that was not the end.]

["Splurt!"]

[Suddenly, the woman's abdominal region—specifically her womb—burst open, scattering chunks of flesh in all directions. Emerging from the remains was a long-haired girl dressed in white, her face completely obscured by her hair."]

[The girl crawled toward the television screen—and then vanished into it."]

[This phenomenon stunned the researchers. More experiments were conducted, leading to a shocking conclusion: when the virus infected a woman who was ovulating, it would interact with her egg cells, causing rapid artificial conception. In the final moments before death, the woman would give birth at an accelerated rate, skipping the normal gestation period entirely. The result? The birth of a non-human entity—a ghost girl."]

[This revelation made the SCP Foundation realize the true horror of the entity behind the tape. Not only did she spread the virus through video signals, but she also used female victims to propagate more of her kind. This realization sent chills down the spines of the researchers—many of the victims had been women, which meant an unknown number of ghost children had already been born. And considering how long this urban legend had existed, the death toll could be in the thousands."]

[In that moment, the Foundation understood—they were dealing with an unimaginably dangerous entity."]
