In Response To: Re: A little speculation *Spoilers* Part 1 (Dubble.utoo) : In this case, lighting the ring would kill off the combat forms and carrier : forms (as they are technically still 'food' for the flood, just augmented : with super cell structures) which would leave the flood with only the : Infection forms, and a gravemind that has nothing more to assimilate and : thus, the flood has no means to invade starships or other means of : transport to follow the Humans and Elites through the portal in the event : that the Halo fired successfully. : However, Cortana's line from Halo 1 "The only way to stop the flood is
: This has been a long and complicated post, so, Is this scenario obvious and
I dont think you missed anything and you are most definitely not ignorant, I just don't think that we can take Cortana's words 100% literally. If the rings destroy all sentient life, that would mean the flood and Gravemind too, as Gravemind is sentient (although to be fair, one does not need to be self aware to be sentient). Also, the fact that a swat with a magnum can "pop" an infection form, leaves me to highly doubt that a blast from the rings that would kill all people, animals, and other life forms and leave the flood unharmed. And if that is the truth...why cant it be engineered the opposite way...and make it so the rings ONLY kill the flood. Or have I missed something?
