Fluid Pestilence (Sci-Fi, LitRPG)

So, what does it take to summon a void entity? They were talking about it like it requires sapient sacrifice or something.
I will clarify that it isn't something that hard requires anything notable like blood sacrifice or something like that.
The intent there is just that "dying request for horrors beyond reality to avenge" was a possible method.
 
Who thought it was a good idea to need at least three separate supply chains here? I am so glad I'm not Sledge's quartermaster.
Stat-maxxers. That's probably the killiest setup you can get. Running that sort of rig makes sense on a level where you don't need a giant logistics chain to keep your kit running, which is what the player base has experience with.
Alternatively, someone realized what a white elephant it was and decided to make it Flamescale's problem.
Ah, the next season is going to be void entity caused, I see.
Can't imagine much else that needs enough molten kaiju to flood a mid-sized country.
 
She also had the downside that even with the relatively easy routes to the material travel skills her ability to travel between shadows was limited to an area around where she had a body, or where she had specifically made unnatural shadows. Yellow-Glow had outright panicked when she said that it also worked for her Lava Viper body, and then went to personally get the pieces of that set of branches in a rather extreme rush. That made a lot more sense when he pointed out that it would in theory work with the 'human' bodies of other Entities too.

Apparently the biggest taboo was going to the human instance they knew about. Although Yellow-Glow had not appreciated the question about what happened with other human instances, or maybe did and just turned that into an interrogation about if she had seen anyone from one of those. She had not as far as she had asked, but admittedly nobody had told her much about the human instance yet.

I'm just imagining a scene of Flamescale sneezing as a human and going "huh, lava fruit... wait...". Wonder how infection skills interact with encountering your own body. I mean, a body that's explicitly not the void entity body (or part of the set of those bodies... this is confusing, shhh). But honestly kept wondering about this sort of thing the moment we got to see the infection and the fact both Sol and Local are kinda connected.

The weird pacifistic human is unnerving. Seemingly advocating for the good of Locals, yet when interrogated a bit more, looks rather fragile and not actually in on lots of stuff. Wonder what that reminds me of, cough cough.

Been really really nice to see how things are from a PoV that isn't just tunnel visioned to rather high degree, as it is with Flamescale. Her arc is almost laser focused on objectives, and extracting the details of the world is a bit of a challenge. Guess because she's trying not to think too much about it despite knowing it for sure that it's not the game. Coping mechanisms be wild.

If they keep acquiring more hugeness, one of them can volunteer to be the new trade station. :V

"Flamescale. What did you do."
"..."
"Where's the sun?"
