Book 5: Chapter 62: The Void Creatures

Scarlet

My eyes narrow slightly as I look through the much smaller list than we had for monster defenders.

Description

Voidling

0.1 Points

The weakest and most common void creature in the void. They are completely unintelligent and chase after the strongest source of life force they can sense nearby.

Their most common method of attacking is through swarming with sheer numbers.

They are no stronger than a wild animal with the power of a Class 0 being and have appearances that vary from one voidling to another. However, they all have black scales and tentacles, with no eyes.

Void Drone

0.3 Points

The second weakest and second most common void creature in the void with the power of a Class I being. They are completely unintelligent and chase after the strongest source of life force they can sense nearby.

Their most common method of attacking is through swarming with sheer numbers.

They have the power of a Class I being with the appearance of a large beetle with black tentacles growing out from beneath their shells and six black-scaled legs.

Void Vanguard

1 Point

The main force of the Voided Overlord, serving at the front of every charge through sheer instinct alone.

These creatures are completely unintelligent and always starving, looking to devour life force whenever possible. Therefore they will always rush to the front of any attack in an attempt to find their next meal.

Right. It only described up to Class III equivalent void creatures. There wasnt anything about the Class IV equivalent ones I found while fighting them above that planet.

I didnt see any Class V equivalent ones though.

The Class IV equivalent void creatures are known to us as void ravagers, and they tend to be the size of a small house, King Oberon starts off surprising more than a few people. They often have the forms of large blobs of nothing but tentacles, claws, and scales, and try to pull anything living nearby them into their mess of tentacles to absorb them alive. While also shredding them up with the claws within their mass of flesh.

That doesnt sound pleasant.

At all.

And those are very large blobs. Very large indeed.

Then the Class V equivalent void creatures are known as void heralds, and they have the distinct power to attract other void creatures to them, King Oberon says, making my eyes narrow slightly. Just like all of the other void creatures, they have no intelligence. But what they do have is a stronger set of instincts than the other void creatures. They know when to retreat by pure instinct alone for example, and they pull back the invasion forces from a force they dont believe they can take on before merging with another invasion force.

That sounds dangerous.

The heralds take on different forms for every herald, with the only exception being that they all include black scales and tentacles, King Oberon continues, making me briefly wonder why the void creatures are so obsessed with scales and tentacles. Their sizes can also vary, ranging from the size of a skyscraper to that of a very small moon depending on how much void energy they have.

Even larger than the blobs. Got it.

Lastly, King Oberon states, surprising me for a second before I understand what hes going to talk about next, the Voided Overlord. A void creature on the level of a Class VI being.

The stadium grows silent despite the action going on down below at the base of the tower, which makes me partially realize that the Fae King must be doing this lecture right now on purpose. To give the last place competitor an advantage over the others due to everyones distraction.

The Voided Overlord is as large as a medium-sized star and looks vaguely similar to a dinosaur from prehistoric Earth, King Oberon says as a wave of mutters begin going through the audience. It has a large and powerful body with a long neck, two short arms, and two short legs. Meanwhile tentacles and black scales cover its entire body. But unlike the other void creatures, this one also has a humanoid form. Even if it still has no real intelligence.

A humanoid form without any intelligence?

Thats bizarre.

Is it just to get into smaller places? But then shouldnt it have used that form to pass into the universe by now instead of waiting for the rift to grow large enough?

The creature is also the personification of void energy given material form, the king states, his tone growing dark as an equally dark look crosses his face. Its very presence once it enters the universe will begin destroying reality around it.

Oh.

Thats not good.
