[quote=@Stabby] *Grimaces.* Thanks for the info. *The energy matter refuses your attempts to influence it moreso then before, as it seems to be heavily anchored to the pseudo-reality this time around. I manage to get it down and disperse it within my body, leaving less room for the crystals, though they are still there for the moment. Looking up, I launch a volley of corrosive flames at you, which actually harms the nanites and breaks them down to their periodic elements since it has no energy or mass, and is instead an effect. It doesn't breach the swarm though, just weakens it.* [/quote] *I reinforce the shield by making the nanites self replicate at extremely fast rates before attempting to limit your pseudo-realities sphere of influence by rewriting this small part of the 3rd dimension in such a way, so it rejects and fights against it. Meanwhile, due to the aging law I placed earlier, the Tiberium crystals begin to grow within you, slowly converting parts of your body into more of it*
