We need help with our xenoforming weapon of mass destruction

+0
−0

Our empire has been at the mercy of violent marauders who are not working with the Will of Dozin and instead trying to break away from our cosmic union. In our archives, we have found a xenoforming device we aspire to use as a form of leverage against these marauders.

It apparently has the capability to self replicate, create a complex of massive organisms that cover a world within the span of years and is able to eventually spread to other worlds until all garden worlds in the whole galaxy if not beyond are xenoformed into being chlorine worlds.

That is, it converts worlds of oxygen-water chemistry to chlorine worlds. However the mechanisms of this process we do not understand and want to know how it does it. Our own knowledge of chlorination is that it should only acidify the oceans- how does it create a chlorine rich atmosphere?

(In short, how do you chlorinate the atmosphere of an earthlike planet?)
