Remembering the barriers in the tunnel levels, he decided to begin destruction, but...
He reviewed his options, fourteen elements, each with its unique properties.
Fluorine showed the most promising reaction. The only halogen.
Fluorine was known to Elio for its chemical aggressiveness, its ability to react with almost any element.
If he could use it correctly...
Elio concentrated his control, creating highly reactive fluorine; the halogen began to corrode the crystalline surface, weakening its bonds.
"Now."
A concentrated explosion finished the work, shattering the weakened barrier. Elio had found his rhythm.
Although the position made each explosion send him upward in a kind of jump.
At least the damage wasn't direct or too severe.
The fall became a dangerous repetition with increasingly powerful explosions that sent him higher and higher.
