The blob found itself heading downstream.
The blob had entered the river while in the city.
By probing the girl's memories, it had learned much. It now knew that by following this river it would arrive at another city.
Using the afternath of the city's partial destruction, it had escaped the city.
Within two hours it had arrived.
It quickly made its way into the sewers after searching around for a brief time.
Once more it spread through the sewers.
The blob was cautious now, at least to an extent. The first thing it did was latch onto another power relay and siphon off power again. Afterwards it waited. Many of its tentacles were damaged. As such, as power siphoned in it slowly began to regenerate the damaged tissue.
Several days would go by before it started moving again.
All around the city several people disappeared here and there.
While doing so, it was also searching for something, or rather a building. When it probed the girl's memories some if the memories contained information on various cities. This city specifically was one it happened to now have a basic understanding of. While some of the details were unclear, most of the important bits were all there. It had learned of a large bio-warehouse within the city. There was also a mass rail cannon on the city's outskirts.
It was actively searching for both.
It didn't take it very long to find either one.
Each was a treasure trove for the blob.
The mass rail cannon would provide much needed metal and technology while the bio-warehouse would provide an enormous amount of organic material for growth.
Within the bio-warehouse, a massacre could be found going on. Tentacles were tearing people apart left and right. Entire sections had been demolished and burned or melted metal could seen here and there. Several tentacles were also tearing through large metal crates every few minutes. Within half an hour it was silent.
Empty crates and debris were all that remained as evidence. Not too much later dozens of people swarmed the warehouse. Enforces, the ones responsible for maintaining public order. Suffice to say they were late though.
The blob was originally going to lay waste to mass rail cannon as well, however something stopped it.
