<Snipped quote by Gentlemanvaultboy>

The power doesn't depend on its ability to spew out gibberish. Even in outer space it some how has the ability to make its speech resonate. 
That and it can just destroy the room in one second while crushing Eli in the rubble. Or Eli tries to counter the masses falling on him only to get a steel pipe pierce his pelvis as he turned his focus away from Patel for an instant.

Not if it can't talk. I know it doesn't matter if anyone can hear its voice, which is why I would attack its ability to use its voice. Hell, you could hit it with something that makes the throat swell up and makes it hard to talk and it would have the same effect.

I mean, I know Eli probably doesn't know any of this. I'm just pointing out the irony that the person best equipped to deal with it is leaving.
