Upgrades, and What Samantha Knows

Hedy walks Carl through the heat win's Golden upgrade slots, trading one down for three regular picks, and he settles on the full Bubble Buddy shield, a heat sink, booster rockets, and Roller Limbo - a Golden trans-dimensional upgrade allowing inverted racing and squeezing through ten-centimetre gaps. He turns down both the Onikuma and Old Shuck as mounts. Imani gathers Zhang and Tran at the Lollipop and sends Elle to coax the poisoned Li Na out of her guild, while Louis reports using his key to add a gecko and finding an engineer in an abandoned house's hidden room. Fewer than three thousand of the fifty-five hundred crawlers who reached the floor remain. Samantha, stronger by the hour and now able to float eye to eye, smells the goddess on Carl and identifies her as Chalchiuhtlicue: pretty, unstable, and given to having children sacrificed over trivialities, which tells Carl that an escaped god is inside Lucia Mar's head with the trapped children.
