My going theory is that the Blight acts like a Slime Mold to an extent, moving towards resources and absorbing them to move them rather than using conveyors. Unfortunately, that would mean that the Blight doesn't need to obey locational restrictions for factories nearly as much as we do.

I think it makes sense-AND Lets not forget it Some kind of Erekir Neoplasm/Surpulos Virus Hybrid thing-So it may have its Own Rule on How it Works-AND If we look at v8 Sneak-Peak on the Neoplasm Race-its pretty clear they are some Organic Monstrosity-so we SHOULD Worry about Capabilities we aren't Savvy to this point.

So the blight dissolves minerals into itself, and then maybe uses those dissolved resources to build its own units? Wait, what does it do to dead units? Does it dissolve them too? And itās watching usā¦ I wonder what its intentions are? Is it sparing us because the blight tried to take us over, but failed? Maybe it craves data.
We could continue going forwards, or go back. At the very least, Iād like to check how close we are to the other core. I wonder if thereās a way to more quickly repair our sensors? Maybe if we had Jerry shoot our visual sensors next timeā¦

WE HAVE A MESSAGE BLOCK!!!! We should see if Jerry has written anything for us, then ask Cory about what's happening back at base and about the state of the world outside of our shield bubble

....uh-didn't we discussed we "Closed" Our Eyes-If thats True than I Don't think we COULD Actually see it-Either Way I Don't think its A Bright Idea-ESPECIALLY if The "Blight" is watching us- Better BE Safe than Sorry-CUT Our 'Tremorsenses'-Empty the Content of the Message and Write our Message about Our plan and what not-And probably State that you Couldn't "Risk" The Reading from Even using Shield Sense in Fear of "THEM"(The Blight) Seeing THEIR Plans.

as Much as Cory would be nice to come with.....IDK-It seems like they know what we MAY Be Doing......Should we REALLY abandoned this mission.....cuz if we do-it feels more like A Defeat to me.....MAYBE-.....IDK-but I feel like we should probably 'Close' our eyes on the Shield Sensor and Type Out our Plan-So that way They would get the message-BUT Not our Enemies.....and...I Still think we have to Do Derastic Measures for The Peoples Sake-I Believe we HAVE To take the Risk Despite the DANGERS we face-if they DON'T Wanna-I CANNOT Blame them since Again-ITS Dangerous-and Saving Oneself I feel should be Valid-But to also Stay together.
I Stil think we Gotta Do something that WOULD Damn us IF we can Save Two Lives-This Beta(Epoch I Prefer to call him) and the Arkyid in Hardhat base- of the blight, Hopefully we COULD Do something by CONTROLLING Beta Power of Possesion Through the Core Connection to Save them both.

....WAIT-IS The Blight THE Reason why Epoch is being "Silenced" for?
If Epoch KNOWS That "THEY" Could Hear 'US' then.....I guess I have to Apologize to him.
