"This species has been designated Parasite X," Lieutenant General Anderson stated gravely while the projection behind him enlarged into a horrifying image of the massive abomination.
The creature could emerge suddenly through unstable spatial fractures before unleashing countless massive tentacles capable of crushing fortified steel structures like paper. Entire warships were pierced and dragged into the purple fog before disappearing completely.
"There are currently five confirmed Parasite X entities detected," Anderson continued while displaying a star map marked with multiple crimson symbols. "The one currently on Baeldum has been designated Parasite X-2."
A movement trail soon appeared across several sectors.
"First detected eight years ago within the Neutral Zone," Anderson explained. "Since then, the entity remained elusive and avoided all large-scale engagement attempts."
The projection suddenly paused before zooming directly toward Baeldum.
