CH.592 Galactic Overlord
Today there was a surprise for all the Factory visitors, and I realized I may have ignored a few facts when I made the Factory public. Mainly our System Supports and the fact that a few System Agents visit the Factory from ti to ti.
Today’s surprise was the second. Aulis had co to the Factory to tell about an up and coming fissure and he was surprised to see so many people there.
Because despite the early morning hour, there were already 12 people in the Factory, who had co in using the Factory VR. And 6 dragons who ca following the Guide Post.
And because of the early morning hour, most of them were still making their way to where they were heading in the Factory.
“You’ve been busy.” Aulis comnted.
“Well, you know how it goes. It's been a while since the last [fissure] miasma blob, so I had to co up with sothing fun on my own.” I told him.
“Including a malfunctioning expurgating system?” Aulis asked.
“So it worked? Good to know. I actually hadn’t tested it out yet.” I told him.
“No, it didn't work. While it was dampened, I heard what you said under the cover words.” Aulis responded.
“It doesn’t work on you because you know the truth.” I explained. “But the visitors should hear the F word as miasma blob, which is what I’ve been telling them.”
“I see. Then I suppose it mostly worked. The filtering could do with so improvents.”
“Yeah, I’ll look into it.” I promised. “Let’s get to a private room. This isn’t a talk for the public.”
As we walked, Aulis got so attention. I don’t know why, but for so reason the Factory visitors are able to tell System Supports, or in this case System Agents, apart from my monsters. I did try to fix it, but I couldn’t find the root cause, so I couldn’t figure it out.
The sa goes for Fantasia. Everyone just knows she isn’t a Pack Opener monster. I would comnt about Tahlia, but only a few of the sages have seen her, since they are the only ones she shows herself to. And even then it is only to play boardgas with them.
… Actually, I may have just realized the root cause. I think it is Fantasia. She doesn’t want to reduce herself, her family and her extended family to be the sa as my monsters. So she probably gave her family so strange aura I can’t feel. But the visitors can. Maybe. I’ll ask her, but she’ll probably lie if that is the case.
I got the info about the next fissure from Aulis and then I compared it to the data coming in from the miasma dositers. And as I was comparing the data, I noticed a place different than the place Aulis indicated having abnormal miasma readings.
They weren’t stable, and were instead jumping up and down on the daily. One day there is too much miasma and the next there is too little. The change wasn’t large enough to trigger an alert, so I didn’t notice it before, but that really isn’t normal.
Low miasma readings have never led to a fissure, while high levels might. But there has never been this back and forth before. I’m honestly not sure what it ans.
Maybe it could an that a monster evolved and drew in a lot of miasma to fuel the evolution? And as the monster is pulling the miasma, the sensors keep picking it up, but then the levels drop again? Or sothing like that.
I wrote a report about the abnormal miasma level in that area and shared it with the guild communicator, recomnding that the guild in that area investigate what might be wrong.
As I was typing the report, Unika read it from over my shoulder and said she’d go take care of it. I then asked her if she’d rather co with to deal with a fissure or do the investigation, but after so thought, Unika said she’d do the investigation. In her words, fissures are more common and less exciting.
Since I didn’t get Unika, I instead took Cailie and Mothra with to the fissure. No, I wasn’t going to fight with Mothra. I was actually using her as a test subject. And Cailie was honestly a ‘just in case’, since her unique skill can purify miasma.
I don’t want what happened with Gojira to happen to Mothra. She, being a Giant Rainbow Butterfly, has higher natural miasma resistance than most monsters. There is a reason they are seen as ‘good monsters’. So she already has a better chance at surviving the miasma.
And Mothra does have an accessory that should protect her from miasma, which I designed for the Wild Pack and their tad monsters. As well as all of ours, but I only really designed it after we started our partnership with the Wild Pack.
It is currently untested against high amounts of miasma. And even with Mothra’s resistance to miasma, I’m not 100% sure she will be able to stand up against the pure power of a dinsional fissure without going crazy. Thus Cailie is here as an insurance.
I was going to deal with the fissure monster with Hiśaila. Because of her, or more like thanks to her, I got the Prism-Ice Magic skill. I’ve tested it a bit, but now I really want to take it for a spin against an opponent. And Hiśaila also wanted to test her evolved power.
I summoned the ice dragon at the sa ti as I called Exodia.
Then it was just open the fissure and deal with whatever monster cos from the inside. This isn’t the first ti. You know the deal.
The monster this ti was an SS-rank dinosaur monster that looked quite a lot like the real Godzilla, like it was trying to taunt that I had to kill Gojira. … okay, I didn’t need to kill him. I killed him because it was easier and I really didn’t have a close connection with the lizard yet. And to make things worse, this things racial na is The Great Zilla, for so reason. Fricking Japanese reincarnation or sothing.
But an SS-rank made for a good target for Hiśaila, so I just supported her however she needed. I mainly made so basic ice constructs with Prism-Ice Magic, which Hiśaila then used to attack the Great Zilla.
Prism-Ice Magic is really good for making ice constructs. It makes them with a crystal structure that is as clear as a prism, as you might have figured out from the na. But that crystal structure is also fairly durable. In terms of hardness, it can match up to very hard gems like rubies and sapphires, while being more tough than the gems.
Taking down the Great Zilla was a lot of work and it took a while, so long in fact that Exodia had already closed the fissure by the ti Hiśaila managed to finish off the beast.
During that ti, a few B-rank monsters had also spawned because of the fissure, but luckily Cailie and Mothra had dealt with them.
We then spent a bit of ti clearing out all the ice littering the ground before we headed back ho.
And naturally dealing with a fissure rewarded with a new set. .
And the new set ans packs. 10 of them in fact.
