The pursuer is telling the truth. He will not die. If he will die, he would have died many, many years ago.

As for how many years it was, he could not remember it clearly, but he vaguely remembered that at that time, people still lived in stone houses and castles. As for where the castle was... it seemed to be in a small town near the Mediterranean, he could not remember it clearly.

But he still remembered that he was bought by a slave owner.

The slave owner put on gorgeous clothes, ate delicious food, and tortured himself. He seemed to be doing some research. One day, the slave owner locked himself in a human-shaped coffin with thorns, and the lid of the coffin was full of spikes, and the spikes pierced his body.

After that, the pain accompanied me forever for a long time, until I don’t know how long it took, the lid of the coffin was finally opened and I was liberated.

But the world had completely changed at that time.

The iron sheet was filled with wheels, and the giant steel bird flew in the sky. Only then did I realize that the thing was called a car and an airplane.

Oh, by the way, the person who rescued himself called himself an agent, and that guy took him to a place called the SCP Foundation.

Haha, that was centuries ago.

Project number: SCP-762 (Mini-changed)

Project Level: Safe  Change to Euclid

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-762 is placed in a storage box in the █ Containment Area. Unless actively or passively enters SCP-762, the containment item is harmless to anyone and therefore no further containment procedures are required.

Any experiments conducted using SCP-762 require authorization from Dr. ████.

Additional containment procedures:

SCP-762-1 is prohibited from contacting any living organism with blood, body fluids, body tissues, hair, nails and other tissues.

Description: SCP-762 is a torture device similar to the infamous Nuremberg Iron Virgin.

Its appearance is like a huge coffin decorated with human faces, but it is covered with iron nails. When the victim is locked up, these iron nails will ruthlessly penetrate the victim's body. Moreover, this torture instrument is not a quick death, because the iron nails are generally thin, so the victim often struggles in severe pain for about a day before he dies.

It was discovered in 1992 in a basement of ████████, Austria.

When opened, it was discovered that there was a male human inside SCP-762, now called SCP-762-1.

The Foundation's agents in central Europe immediately intervened in the investigation and successfully recovered the abnormal item and carried out primary memory removal of relevant personnel.

......

SCP-762-1 appears to be an ordinary male human, of European descent, with an age of about 35 years old, about 180 cm tall and 100 kilograms.

When he was discovered, SCP-762-1 was in the Iron Virgin, and the Iron Virgin's spike had pierced his flesh and blood. However, after removing SCP-762-1 from the Iron Virgin, all the wounds on his body recovered within half an hour.

In the early stages, SCP-762-1 was identified with tension schizophrenia, social dialogue phobia, pain delusion, and extremely severe claustrophobia. These symptoms are attributed to their long-term placement in the Iron Virgin.

Surprisingly, SCP-762-1 is generally quite healthy in addition to severe mental illness. Due to the unique properties of SCP-762-1, it is impossible to determine how long SCP-762-1 has stayed inside it. The detection of the device shows that its existence dates back to the late 15th century, so it is possible that SCP-762-1 has been inside the device for centuries.

Any person who is placed in SCP-762 (Iron Virgin) will enter a state of false death. The subject will no longer need food, water, or even air when he is inside SCP-762. At the same time, the subject seems to be immune to the disease when he is inside SCP-762, but the ulceration of the wound will occur normally and can cause more severe pain to the personnel inside.

But despite this, the tester will remain conscious and describe it's experienced very painful. Once the tester is removed from the inside of SCP-762, all wounds caused by the device will recover quickly in a short period of time.

Since all physiological functions except consciousness are suspended when inside SCP-762, the person placed inside does not appear to age.

It is interesting that no one except SCP-762-1 was given the ability to regenerate continuously after entering the Iron Virgin. The testers hypothesized that this was because SCP-762-1 was in the Iron Virgin for too long and was assimilated by its ability.

Dr. ██████ applied to identify this hypothesis by placing a primate inside SCP-762.

......

██-██, ███.

Dr. ████ discovered and confirmed that SCP-762-1 has a new anomaly characteristic and requested to change its rating to Euclid.

At 9:30 am on ███, a staff member in the █ Containment Area was suddenly cut off without any external contact. At that time, the staff was eating in the staff cafeteria, and no murder weapon or perpetrator was found at the scene.

The person was sent to the rescue area in time, but during the delivery process, the person's chest, legs, and right eyeball were damaged one after another without being touched by any object. At 9:53, the person died of excessive blood loss.

The ██ team immediately launched an investigation into this special incident and identified the suspected suspicion of SCP-762-1.

According to investigation, SCP-762-1 was conducting a human test at that time. The purpose of the test was to test its regeneration ability. The tester cut SCP-762-1's left arm, third rib on the chest, legs, and right eyeball.

According to the description of the parties, the wound was completely consistent with the victim staff.

However, within half an hour after the trial, all injuries of SCP-762-1 healed and regenerated, while the victim was dead.

The containment area immediately imprisoned SCP-762-1. After investigation, it was found that the victim was a chef in the containment area. During the diet making in the containment area early in the morning, he accidentally cut his fingers, causing a drop of blood to drip into the white porridge pot for breakfast that day.

Dr. ██ immediately applied for a retest of the particularity of SCP-762-1.

Test record:

1. SCP-762-1 is required to drink the blood of a highland dog and cut SCP-762-1's calves.

The highland dog's left leg showed the same injury and showed great pain.

Ten minutes later, SCP-762-1's calf injury healed, and the wounds of the Highland dogs remained.

2. SCP-762-1 is required to slice and eat a D-class personnel's little finger and cut SCP-762-1's throat.

The throat of the D-class personnel broke out of thin air without any physical contact.

Six minutes later, SCP-762-1 returned to health, and the D-level personnel who tested were dead at 51 seconds.

Dr. ██ applied to quarantine SCP-762-1 alone and prohibited the supply of any meaty food.
