Chapter 10 ? Menace in the Muck.
Here?s the new changes to Team Awesome?
Bones ?
Kahn ?
Also, here?s the new Digimon on the farm!
An time to check on Eruca?
Eruca?s next quest starts off with going to see what Julia wants? It has been a while since she?s seen the gang, time to go check on them?
: to do. I want you to go to Loop Swamp where a link has been reestablished.
: Deep inside Loop Swamp, we?ve detected illegal activity similar to the virus program like the one that attacked CITY.
: Chief Julia, Eruca doesn?t have enough experience. Shouldn?t we send a more experienced Tamer?
: Eruca is still inexperienced? There?s no telling what will happen? Shouldn?t we call Sukekiyo?s team and let them handle it? (Zanbamon)
: . . . You?re right? but?
: I think Eruca is capable of handling it.
Julia nods her head in agreement..
: Get to Loop Swamp and find out what?s causing the illegal activity. Also, watch out for whirlpools in Loop Swamp. You can enter the big ones but not the small ones.
Everyone salutes, and Eruca heads off to go see what lies for her in the damp, dusky area?
You can see here our map of locals is filling up quite nicely. Also a source of Dark EXP is highly appreciated, as most of our Digimon need Dark EXP to go to Ultimate form and higher.
Eruca loves the look of this place, chests in easy places and only two ways to go! She heads West first? After grabbing the chest of course ? Bronze Plate.
5 steps in and there?s already a split path. Well high ground it is? Trick! The middle path is the only one to lead anywhere. An the first encounter of the day is?
Yanmamon ? Level 27, 59 Bug EXP, 37 bits.
There?s new Digimon all over this place, time to show stuff off! By the way, Bones and Kahn went straight to level 6 and gained about 10-20 in each stat and 60 Health.
Shellmon ? Level 28, Aquan 60 EXP, 27 bits.
Here is a big whirlpool. The big whirlpools take you to the small whirlpool.
Slightly smaller circular area. They make it easy to notice somethings in this game? Then all the sudden a wild Squirtle Kamemon appears!
Kamemon ? Level , 34 Aquan EXP, 27 bits.
The good thing about that big whirlpool, brought her straight to a chest!
Full heal, 1 zone.
Eruca goes along the path a little more. She notices a split path, 1 going to a big whirlpool; and another path on the side (nothing there). Just as she goes to investigate through the whirlpool, she runs into one of these little froggy guys, and a big snake!
Gekomon ? Level 26, 57 Aquan EXP, 30 bits.
Seadramon ? Level 31, 62 Aquan EXP, and dropped a 3 zone, 150 HP heal. (This was an insane group, I had to go back for this shot, and that Seadramon was with 2 Shellmon and 2 Yanmamon)
The whirlpool takes Eruca to a whole new place!
The start of the level? I feel this could happen a couple times. But this could be a good thing, as Kirk is close to Digivolution.
Otamamon ? Level 21, 32 Aquan EXP, and a 2 zone 150 HP heal or bits, not sure how many.
The next fight displays Poyomon, a neat little in training Digimon.
Poyomon ? Level 9, 14 Aquan EXP, some bits, fought this one with the first Otamamon to drop bits, they dropped 37 together.
-Quick trip to CITY to Digivolve Kirk, so he/she/it can get a nice boost in stats from easy levels.
Also, Metatron degenerated to Tokomon.
Sulu degenerated back to Betamon.
Ringo degenerated back to Tentomon.
Chet degenerated back to DemiDevimon.
Now back to the show!
With a new party full of fresh Digimon, Eruca is ready to delve deeper into the swamp! Who know what lies in wait for her?
Right on the next screen, The north route leads to this chest, the south is a small whirlpool. The west is where Eruca chooses to go, where a big whirlpool lies in wait. Through the other side of the whirlpool, lies another whirlpool and a path just like last time, Eruca decided to mixes things up and finds a chest! It had a 1 zone revive in it. After grabbing the chest, Eruca turns around to go back through the whirlpool and runs into some disgruntled plants?
Weedmon ? Level 29, 60 Bug EXP, 32 bits or a GateDisk.
Through the whirlpool, leads to another bunch of paths. A whirlpool and a path. Eruca grabs the chest (GateDisk); and then heads through the top path. There?s nothing really there, but at least there?s a nice view?
Eruca than runs into some swamp monsters? as in a Numemon.
Numemon ? Level , 56 Aquan EXP, 30 bits. (Lord knows why it?s Aquan EXP, I think it should be Machine since it?s very similar to poop thrower Sukamon?)
Through the whirlpool, Eruca finds another split path. They love doing this to Eruca apparently? The West path leads to nothing. The East path leads to a big whirlpool and another nice view?
Through the next whirlpool is just what Eruca was looking for? A three way path, up the middle? Danger?
But before finding out what that big thing is, a Kogamon attacks Eruca!
Kogamon ? Level 30, 62 Bug EXP, 32 bits.
Here is our party?s stats for reference:
: Then let?s get down to business. Here?s the D word you asked for. It has a program that destroys server achieves in it. It was created from the virus you gave me! But that won?t let you destroy the archive completely. Now, give me the goods you promised.
: . . .Nope.
: What? You don?t have it!? That?s not what we promised!? What are you mocking me?! You?ll pay!
Skullbaluchimon ? Level 41, 1680 Dark EXP, 1200 bits, MultiRecoverS - Heals all ailments in a zone.
This is our first Ultimate boss. As you can see, this is a Big boss, 3 zones! Good thing, your multi-zone attacks hit him multiple time. Bad thing, bosses this size usually hit like trucks.
Attacks:
Dark Claw ? 2 zones (1 2), hit me very lightly, 1 on Kirk, 13 on Bones. Poisons.
Grave Bone ? 2 zones (1 2), once again very light damage. Poisons. Hits twice too.
Sharp Claw ? 1 zone, light damage.
Either my Digimon are getting incredibly powerful, or this boss was a pushover. Poison was the biggest danger of this fight, doing 10% every time your Digimon gets a turn. Other than that, this guy was a pushover.
: . . . . You?re? a lot stronger than you look? ! Are? you? a? Tamer from the Union?
: Yup.
: So you are? Now that the Union knows, I guess there?s no choice? A certain individual hired me to make a certain item? I?ll get an item I?m hired to get. That?s how I do business. Understand? . . . I?ll give you this. It?s a D Word. It should help in restoring CITY? Now, I?ll send it to your Digivice.
---Eruca got D Word---
: This job was a failure?
SkullBaluchimon ports away?
Eruca decides to head back to the Union. To tell Julia the good news! But first, found one thing before we?re leaving?
MultiRecoverS in the box.
Time to go back to CITY!
: studying the D Word you acquired right now.
: SkullBaluchimon?. This is a problem?
: The D Word that Eruca acquired is a boost program that reinforces the mysterious virus.
: Virus?
: Yes, it?s a highly contagious worm virus. But based on our analysis, we were able to restore CITY. We conducted a test and we succeeded in restoring Dark E area in Dark Terminal.
: That?s good news! Then we can restore the other areas?
: No? the virus seems to have built a resistance to the vaccine we created? It had no effect on Dark S area or Dark N area?
: . . .
: I see? Then it?s no use. Continue your investigation to see if there are any other options.
: Understood!
: If we were able to restore Dark E area, then we should be able to restore the other areas! Let?s keep working!
: Eruca, keep up the good work!
: I?ve sent your reward to the Dark Center, so collect it at the quest counter on the way back.
Everyone salutes, and off Eruca goes to get her reward!
Reward ? 115 Tamer points, 7185 bits, Novice Blade (weak).
Eruca saves the day again, and now we have a new area to go look at! Julia is grateful for the fantastic work Eruca keeps doing, and everyone else keeps doubting her greatness! Next time on Digimon World Dusk, Eruca goes to help more Digimon, more digivolving, and maybe a name rechange!? Tune in next time for? Chapter 11 ? The Golden Hair and Perfect Cake!
