Log Entry #022: Vector Protocol Escalation

The KRYSTAL-BLOCK formations (ref: Log #001, Log #011) are exhibiting unprecedented resilience and adaptive regeneration. Standard containment protocols are failing across multiple sectors. The resonant frequencies causing material decay in orbital constructions (Log #019) are intensifying, suggesting the Krystal contagion is evolving its offensive capabilities.

In response to this escalating threat, Grid Command has authorized Directive 774: full reactivation and enhancement of the experimental Vector Vanquisher program. Operators are being equipped with newly developed, highly volatile ION-Balls. These projectiles possess the necessary power to deconstruct even the densest Krystal formations but come at a significant risk: their energy discharge can temporarily destabilize local spacetime, potentially exacerbating the dimensional rifts navigated by Quantum Aviator drones.

This is a desperate gamble. Operators assigned to the Vector Protocol must balance aggressive deconstruction with the potential for collateral dimensional damage. The integrity of the Grid hangs by a thread, and this escalation may be our last resort against the crystalline tide.
