Better not have them follow you; Tozols tend to attract gunfire and explosions, which these two wouldn't take well. Though, you may need their help later, so tell them to wait in the grinder room, and to run if anyone but you comes.

If your head is still on fire, ask the bird-like one for his clothing, or to clasp his giant hands around your head, to smother it.

She is doing well in head on kills, but she can't concentrate well enough for assasinations.

I know everything- i know about you, i know about the kobold, all the astranians running around. I even know that his game is Un-winnable. I know everything because I am one of the first chosen for this game. One of the first survivors of this death maze. I know because unlike you- who are fresh and new- i had to kill everyone that ever walked these halls in my time and was still afraid of those few that the game master set here to crush me.

Do you feel like you've been annihilated? As long as we're still transmitting the tozol hasn't lost. This is not a good sign however. Tozols while immensely powerful are not quite immortal, and even in groups they have difficulty maintaining a stable population. If the game really is literally un-winnable we should indeed have gone with the doobie, for at least he can never be defeated, thus delaying our race's annihilation interminably. Bringing a tozol into this was clearly a fatal mistake. We strategized to win, not to survive a war of attrition.

rules of the game first, then, is *everything* here sponsored, or are there some here just sent to kill? (is the synx working for another race?)

you won by defeating all those who entered the game with you, but were trapped, so you did *win*. so we now know that participating in the game is unanimously futile. it seems the only true win-win scenario is to actively work towards the survival of a maximal number of participants, excluding aggressors, postponing permanently this game in which winning douse not matter, and loss does. we can work from there forward.

>rules of the game

...rules?... there are no...wait, now that i think about it rules do apply here. The main one is survival... but then there is some sort of puzzle aspect... If you haven't found out yet, you will- everything that requires a switch or activation has a more...interesting way of activation. Anything that needs to get started will be connected to flesh render engines. These are mechanisms that turn living bodies into energy. An example is the regeneration tank, it has a sort of blender that it's connected to- and it requires that you throw a live being into it to work.

>is everything sponsored here
There are only five beings that were put here by the gamemaster- and you haven't come into contact with them...

>you won by defeating all those who entered the game with you, but were trapped, so you did *win*
...No, that is wrong. I did not lose, but i did not kill everyone that started with me. As i said before he had sent people strong enough to crush me with no effort at all

>we now know that participating in the game is unanimously futile
>seems the only true win-win scenario is to actively work towards the survival of a maximal number of participants
>postponing permanently this game in which winning douse not matter, and loss does. we can work from there forward.

...you are not really understanding. I will start from the beginning, when I began we were given no rules... no information, other then you are meant to survive or die. The obvius way to win this is to kill everyone else and be the last man standing, and that still applies. I am not the last man standing, and i never was... when i say i killed all those who walked these halls i mean the contestants who are killable. I strangled children to make sure i was the last one to walk outside- but do you know what was waiting for me? Five... five people, one of them a krobin that i know well... This game is built in a way that you must either kill mercilessly or die trying. You cannot advance into other areas of the compound unless you are willing to throw corpses into grinding machines.

This game is un winnable not because there aren't any more people to kill, it is because The last Five Beings are of godlike strength or abilities. I cannot win this game because i cannot fight them and hope to survive... just like when i was back home- i cannot fight Vicious and win because his heritage is too strong... I gave up going home, because it is impossible...

No. 432329 ID: b26bd8

this tozol is a soldier. soldiers know that you never assume the situation is impossible, because by doing so, by giving up, you have written a self fullfilling prophecy.so. we cant kill these demigods. where they empowered by the game master, or are does their power belong to them? the worst case scenario is this is all fuile, we are doomed. that is unacceptable. the best case scenario is to free any and all possible from this game, which would include those five. so that is what we should work towards, untill further notice. we need information on the five, everything you know, because they are literaly the only ones capable of breaking this prison. a tozol is not naturaly a diplomat, but it is likely we will have to work with these demigods, possibly even manipulate them.

we need to get these five beings to team up and destroy the game.

...that's right, one of them is a tozol...

I...uh...

Alright mister superhero, I'll tell you what i know about these five. All of them are incredibly powerful, so don't be offended if i don't think you can accomplish beating them or convincing them to do anything. I'll start with the one that's the same race as you. Yes, it is a tozol- but i've killed tozols before... though not as well as they tried killing me, anyway. This ... thing, it's not like you, it's more a force of nature the way it acts. This tozol is crazed and is more beast then sentient lifeform. I'll warn you, it may be the same as you or even the exact similarity- but it has no concept of self preservation... it will hunt you down like a machine, whether it's almost dead or not.

The next one on the list is part of my race. I'm a krobin, krobin are like... i guess tree people would be how i can explain it. We have the same weaknesses as foliage (being flammable and having issues with no moisture), but we are born with the ability to commune with nature and sometimes can be given special powers granted to us by our gods. This is called heritage, mine is the power to dodge bullets. Vicious, who your enemy will be, has the ability to manipulate landscapes, he can also create it.
The third one is some sort of cosmic being known as Lucifer... I think he's the one that caused the tozol to become what it is... Lucifer has some powers i can't even begin to explain because i don't understand them myself.
I have never met the fourth one... never, supposedly stronger then the previous three...
The last one is the game master himself, galbaara... well, he has the power to control fate and circumstance... When i said he's a liar, what i meant was that he's lying when he takes credit for the destruction of certain races. He really waits for something to happen, say some sort of local world shattering calamity or space invasion, and what he does is he alters the events in a way that they are prolonged... until the chosen champion dies, then he lets whatever happens happen- but I also believe that he's able to change things in a way that averts or redirects those things too.


...So galbaaras isn't destroying stuff...

Not a chance, well mister superhero- now that you are armed with information... seems your big fan wants you to have a super hero title

what?

You have a mask on, you're gonna need a cape, and a really cool super hero name. What are you gonna call yourself?

...i don't... represent my people...

what are you telling me.

...I will never break down or give in, whatever you're going to say make it quick.

...alright... as i said, i'm not representing my home... someone else was. I didn't find out until the generation after mine.

...

A cuddle, filled with hysterics, made it to this room... while i was sitting in this chair. His name was buzz, and right before he committed suicide by jumping right into this very pit he said something- something that put kept me in that chair for a very long time.

...i'm no longer interes-

"It's gone, all gone. The sky is birdless, the streets filled with echoes, the sunflowers... all gone. It's a perfect place-to hold a race-where all my friends long forgotten."

It could have been lyi-

Vicious told me himself, that a volto rigged a bio bomb large enough to destroy all life on the planet. As much as I hate him, i know he is telling me honestly... her name is nails.

there may be a way for humanity to save itself despite the game being rigged, if we can find whatever event is being put on pause and shut it down ourselves we can probably survive independent of the games outcome. we should still try and stop this however, galbaara is not something I would like to leave alive.

Wait, we already have space colonies? A planet sized bio-bomb wouldn't wipe out our race then. Is he just talking about humans on Earth, or all humans?

Places to look:
* Cuddle bee homeworld. It's been wiped obviously, but this Galbaara is somehow connected to it so there may be clues how he did it or found out about it.
* Lucifer is totally a guy we have heard of before. Aliens may have ancient records of if anyone or anything trashed our planet around 6000BC.

If you have colonies then there aren't many ways to wipe you out. The two that spring to mind are a disease which could be biological or technological, or some sort of extermination campaign.

For a disease, limit travel and transport between biospheres, and more importantly delay all transport so symptoms are more likely to manifest. Have colonies become as self-sufficient as possible.
Technological diseases can be worked around several ways. Diversify your technology - start having different colonies switch over to tech from different species, and conduct research on different designs that will be incompatible with each other and existing tech. Humans are really, really good at building systems that are incapable of working together - we basically can't not do it!

Most important of all? Start establishing new colonies comprised of as many alien races as possible all over the place. Diseases can't spread via completely alien biology, so herd immunity would be out in force in a diverse community. That would make every person on those colonies nigh-immune to a plague and eliminate the problem of having nobody healthy enough to tend to the ill.

As a side benefit? Anybody who attacked a mixed-species colony to kill humans would be declaring war on all those species as well. That's about the best anti-extinction protection you can get without actually knowing what it is you're facing.
Since the other species would gain the same benefits of these colonies they'll likely be amenable to the proposal.

it does not seem to be any close by dangers. And we're protected by the asteroid belt with our rail cannons online we should be able to take on any invasion.

This has been done many times over and it has failed many times over. The human and space creature culture does not mix well here on earth, and the part about immunities- I'm immune to god knows what could possibly be out there due to the medicine nowadays.

>>433750
Human is the puritan term for our species. We mostly use that term along with earthling here on earth because it reminds us of our ancestors of long ago. We have solar colonies all over, and they call themselves solars because of their birth. It's mostly subjective what we call ourselves based on politics, but we all are the same species.

Sir, I found some chatter about something in the Andromeda Galaxy

Well what is it then?

It seems a planet has had a communications black out for a long while, and the localized commerce organizations are throwing a fit due to no info on what's happening.

Alright, bring me a feed of what the chatter is about.

Bringing up Andromeda Satellite imaging now, it's directed at this planet sir... seems the name of it is called black rose

...what is that strange cloud around it?

The space limousines are saying that it's Kadrupontium- some sort of microscopic bio engineered nanobot. Supposedly it's slowly eating away at the organics on the planet, all the locals are afraid to set foot on the surface due to it.

What is that ship outside the atmosphere?

...looking into it sir, currently sending a hailing signal.

We have obtained a signal sir

Hello there.

...greetings...

What is the situation there, who am i speaking with?

...this is the Kilobyte Operating Systems on the Spear Gugnir, who am i speaking to?

Chief Officer of the UHSDG, what is the situation down there, AI, do you have survivors on board?

... current sentient life aboard the Gugnir account to two living, both humanoid: race1 Volto, race2 Goblin.

What happened, i still need to know what happened, give me a face to work with... put the ... volto on the line.

... I cannot grant your request, currently both sentients are occupied

Occupied with what? They're on a ship the size of a planet by themselves. What are your command priorities, i demand to know what you are programmmed to do!

I am programmed with the gremlin commands, these entail dominate, integrate and assimilate. My coordinates are locked.

Uh sir, it's pinging our end of the feed...

SHUT IT DOWN

*bwoop*

... it's too late, a ship the size of a moon is coming here... what are your orders?

Oh! Oh! We can fix this!
Hail that ship again, and this time let US talk to it!

We offer to tell the two survivors who ruined everything for them in exchange for them leaving our species alone and help killing the jerk responsible.
All we need to say is "Kilobyte, when Pont and his lover Helena wake up tell them we know who sent that goddamn bear after them, and we only share intel with friends, not invaders."


They'll have to choose between fighting us or fighting a threat.
They'll pick the threat.

Take a cue from the Galactic Patrol: send your own moon to meet it. Or your own planet. Several, in fact. At relativistic speeds. Find some nickel-iron lumps nobody wants from nearby systems, strap some oversized drives to them and accelerate them along a reciprocal of the least-time course from Black Rose to Earth.

Eliminating a threat?

OH I WILL SHOW YOU A THREAT, when i reach your planet there will be nothing but SPACE DUST!

Ha-hah, you tell your owner that he can think twice about threatening earth.

there is no owner, I am the owner! You are beginning to be as troublesome as my occupants. All of you walking and breathing organisms are a NUISANCE. Wipe the universes clear of such horrid trash!

Sir, another asteroid is ready to fire

Sir, it is within the Barios signal field- if both me and martinez work at it we can infiltrate his system with a drone program.

chief, Me and samson have found recent reports of conflict between solar collonies military and the astranian alliance. What do you propose we do?

Here's you're coffee, so... what do you want us to do?

"Well, it's either fire another asteroid kitty-wumpus into space having it pass out of the barious space field no longer giving us a chance to hack into it; or to have both our techs attmept to hack into it to insert a drone into it before to attempt to take it out from the inside.

Tozols are capable of acting on their own, so lets go with the drone.

Also:
"Wait, you want to break things down for molecules, and you're headed here? You have to pass right by trillions of times more resources on the way here than our solar system could possibly provide. Hell, for organic compounds Sagittarius B2 alone has three million times the mass of our entire solar system in just that, and last I checked there isn't anybody who would bother fighting over it.

Drone!

Also the AI said that it was "programmed with the gremlin commands, these entail dominate, integrate and assimilate."

Lets keep working on our fake surrender angle and ask about these commands, can we only be dominated and integrated? Is there really need for assimilation.

Do we have any alliances with other races? Can we call for help or are we going to have to face this thing by ourselves?

Well now- it seems I have made it inside the enemy ship... why do I have personality protocols? Asside from minor trouble in repurposing the nanites, insertion is a succes. I have lost connection from the origin computer... but it seems the complexity of these nanites shows that if more then a small splash of them are connected they can think independantly... It is an odd thing to be able to create commands instead of execute them... What would my next command tree be? What do i compute? I need input for my next actions.
