Of course, with us floating in zero gravity, the word "run" was purely metaphorical.
Still, semantics didn't matter right now.
I locked my eyes on the target I'd just fired upon, a grotesque mass huddled in one place amidst the mossy, radioactive walls. Even after taking a direct hit from my mining laser, the creature barely flinched. As anticipated, it remained largely unaffected.
That was to be expected, considering what we were up against.
Yes, as you've probably figured out already, the entity that had somehow breached this space was none other than the "boss" monster meant to guard outside the cube. The terrifying, invincible alien—Glop-kun!
I'll never understand why the devs chose that name. Trying to be ironic? A misguided attempt at humor? Anime references gone wrong? Either way, the cutesy name did absolutely nothing to represent the horror it embodied.
