Complete and indefutable genocide...

[Armok]

There are no words to express how good this story is.

[Retro]

Make some of the explosive gel...

You take Skree back to the lab, rather glad he didn’t understand any of the images on the monitor. You wish you hadn’t, either. No, better not think about that much more. Okay. Next step is to figure out how to make this explosive gel thing.

Additionally, the amount of fulgurite and raw nutrient fluid we must burn up to produce the most insubstantial amount of pure Chemical X is excessive to the point of hyperbole.

The set-up looks complicated, but isn’t as tough to figure out as you thought. You leave the fulgurite in the catalyst input, unplug the dry hose, and attach the small X-UNREF test tube to the CHEMXFEED input.



You activate the burners and the machine goes to work!



You end up with a somewhat suspended fluctuating matter-thing. Presumably this is what refined Chemical X looks like? It’s not very useful on its own, though.

Our experimentation has produced several interesting results. By inputting pure Chemical X into the intake and mixing it with caern dew, a volatile, highly unstable explosive gel is created.

You repeat the process, hooking up the CAERN DEW to the catalyst input and sticking the refined Chemical X into CHEMXFEED. This time a dark, thick, black mixture is created.

...and use it to clear out that rubble.

You turn off the burners, done with science for now, and head to the Rec Room. Bloop bloop bloop. You pour the gunk all over the rocks then take a step back.



Hope this works!!!!



(it does)



That was fun! You’ve also managed to finally clear (disintegrate, even) that stupid pile of rocks that probably knocked you out in the first place. Take that, cave!

Comfort Skree. He seems a bit scared at the moment.

[Terrahex]

take that rod out of the door, head back to spaceship room and place it where it needs to be. then find out how far we are from earth using computers on the ship.

[Armok]

Ask yourself why you wasted gel on that when you could just have walked around right?

[SHAD0Wdump]

Now he can get around while the rod key door is shut.

Ask yourself why you wasted gel on that when you could just have walked around right?

>take rod from door
>use rod on hole near sphereship
>use sphereship

That is why.

[mnjiman]

If we attempt to use the rod right away we may be subverted.

[Soadreqm]

What are you talking about?

[mnjiman]

What are you talking about?

If we attempt to use the rod right away without returning to the Dr., I am sure that we will be stopped and called back to her as well as have the rod taken away. That is what I am talking about.

Comfort Skree. He seems a bit scared at the moment.

You give the little guy a hug. He was a bit put-off by the loud noise and sudden burst of heat, but seems all right now.

take that rod out of the door

Yoink! You remember this nifty little thing from quite a long while back.

head back to spaceship room and place it where it needs to be.

You pop the rod into the little holder thing and hear the mother of all whirr-clunks.

find out how far we are from earth using computers on the ship.

You enter the ship to find it now faintly humming and a little better lit. The static-y interface on the main monitor is gone, replaced with computer readings. The orb is re-lit as well. The broken monitor on the console remains static-y.



You position the indicator over the planet it was originally on. This time a text display pops up. You are on Aoide I, locally known as Procella!



Letting go of the navigation display, you see that a course has been set to go to Earth. It is 155,001,033.153 light years away, rounded! Apparently there is no fuel left, so it doesn’t look like you’ll be heading anywhere any time soon though.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Sorry that took a little longer than usual. Classes resumed a little while ago, so. Yeah.

[Tylui]

>_>

<_<

Fuel Ship.

Knock out Feringus.

Send her home.

Live here with Skree and pals foreverrrr. <3

[iceball3]

Go back downstairs and remove that rod from the hole in the ground. It seems to power the ships interface and we don't want to waste it's energy. Add to inventory.

[Soadreqm]

I don't think it's going to run out of power inside a reasonable timeframe. It's some kind of futuristic space power source. Feringus expected it to be connected to the ship and still working. Anyway, we should probably go unlock that beam door in the chem lab. The format was three numbers, wasn't it? 155 and onwards to the storeroom!

If we attempt to use the rod right away without returning to the Dr., I am sure that we will be stopped and called back to her as well as have the rod taken away. That is what I am talking about.

Eh, we're under orders to explore the base. I don't see why she would have taken the rod, even if she had called us back. Whether we like it or not, the good doctor is on our side.

For now.
