Sev and Bugface unload on the last of the lurkers, it flinches. Determined to be not denied its dinner, it tries to stuff Pangea into its maw. The shock of the electric countermeasures however distracts it from getting a really good bite in.

Pangea thinks back to the Tian-styled pre-Gap cuisine found on Absalom station:
"No more sushi rolls for me!"
The android is getting quite tired about being wrapped up... but at the same time it thinks: Best it's me being the prey, since I reduce damage and inflict some automatically...
Pangea squirms around, and tries to kick its legs, despite the difficulty at being held down.
Acrobatics Anti-Pin roll:1d20 + 14 - 4 ⇒ (14) + 14 - 4 = 24 since it is not an Attack roll a 20 does not auto' work. So KAC+10 must be in the 30's... probably no chance to get out this way.
I should be rolling Attack rolls, since I imagine a 20 is an auto success even if it does not meet the KAC+10

With one foe defeated, Sev continues to fire on the other.
Ranged (Laser rifle, azimuth) v blue EAC:1d20 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16 Damage (F):1d8 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13
The starfinders descend on the sole remaining creature with a fury born of desperation. Energy weapons fire, Androids struggle and hammers.. well the hammer humms.
And the dreaded slime monster from the deep.... dies.
Near the back of the room Sev and the last creature fight themselves to a draw, as it sinks down into some type of refuge away from the horrible invaders of its little home.

The big golden thing is obviously very important... maybe even what you are after. There are a number of other artefacts also clustered about the room. While bulky they are surely valuable.

Pangea clambers to sit somewhere.
If its companions take time to explore, the android will have itself a rest.
if we have the 10 minutes: Pangea 46/46SP; 26/42HP; 8/9 RP
You can take as long as you want, I've left the counter running, as some folk don't have quite as good armor as Pangea. Amazing how after that beating it still protects him from radiation and holds an atmosphere!

While resting, Pangea gives a thumbs up and smiles at the camera: "The D-Suit II by Ulrikka Clanholding! Never attack mutant aliens in radioactive pools without it!"

But is seems some radioactivity seeped into the armor through cracks made by the tentacles...
Pangea looks at its face mirrored in the pool: "What have I become? By the great Smurf!"

"Who is this 'Great Smurf' of whom you speak?" Sev asks of Pangea. "Also, it would seem as though your injuries may have led to rapid onset depression for you appear to be rather blue."
Perhaps, the result of the Mysticism check was posted and I missed it (or, perhaps, Sev never had the time to make the Mysticism check at all before the attack?)

Beta took the 10 minute break.
Beta will have a quick look around this place--
Perception:1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 23
and then is willing to take a couple minutes to thoroughly check if this "tear" is somehow trapped--
Take 20 in Perception for 27
"So, do we take it and move out of here? Or explore some more?"
Since my armor protects me from radiation I will pass on making the decision, not having any such indirect/permanent threat.
I am up for leaving now, or for exploring more.

Sev takes a moment to rest his actuators as his visual sensors assess the newly-recovered object. "Clearly, some tragedy has befallen this place. Perhaps, though our exploration, we may be able to provide some context to this... tear."
The team secures the artifact and rests up a little to consider what else they might want to do down here.
You quickly discover there is little more to find on this level, although those pistons at the bottom of the shaft are going to be a bit dangerous for those who want to get back up and cannot fly...

Pangea looks around, trying to find a way to shut the power off to the pistons, or if something can be tossed in them to block them at least enough to let its friends through.

"Okay! So, we get this Tear to safety on our ship.
Then I scout the place out so you can be safe from the radiation? Or I trade my armor with someone - I just have to check my contract, it is on loan, so I do not know what type of insurance I have if I lend it to a 3rd party? Or we all go? Or just some of us?"
Climbing back up to the top is hard work. But with the machinery stopped you all manage to do it eventually.
I guess I could make you all roll and/or use up rounds of your jet packs, but there is not a lot of urgency really.
Where to next? There are no obvious places to explore, other than maybe down into the misty pit itself. Or the trap door that Viper took a quick trip down earlier :-) There is the computer you could try repairing, though that would likely be another hour or so work.

I can knock charges of the jet pack
(currently at 8/40 charges used ; and I have a spare battery if needed for Beta or others)
"Viper, do we check the trap door again? Anything possibly down there? I'd say we do that first if needed... then the mist.
Maybe scour around rapidly for hidden doors if any wish."
Using Fabricate Tech and expending a 2nd level spell slot
As a full action, Sev can expend an unused spell slot to temporarily construct a piece of technological gear from raw magic. He can create any single technological item with a level equal to or less than level 6[level of the expended spell slot × 3]. The item appears in his hands or in an adjacent square. He can use fuse spells with this magic hack. The size of the item cannot exceed 10 bulk or Medium size, and the quality of the item is average. Treat this as a spell of the same level as the expended spell slot. The item persists for 7 minutes (a number of minutes equal to his technomancer level). At the end of this duration, the item disappears. He can’t create armor, weapons, magic items, or items with limited uses or charges (such as batteries, drugs, or fuel) with this hack.
Pangea can spot the outline of some type of hatch in the wall at the end.
Sev tries to spot a way to jam the compactor, but nothing springs immediately to mind.
Status, round 1
Bugface - on the floor
Viper - on rope, 40' up (top of room)
Moving wall
Pangea - flying 20' up
Sev - in chute still, 60' up (flying) I'll take your spoiler as your action for next round unless you pick a different one. That ten bulk limit may be an issue though.

"There's a hatch down there!"
Pangea says, pointing...
If still a move action left after looking around w. Perception (?), Pangea would fly towards the hatch.
