Play Diary:
Nichirinmaru - Underwater Ruins
7.22.2000
I have been really busy this week thus the extreme slow progress of the diary. Now we're ready for the ship. Remember to ask for rumor demon "Red Mat" and obtain blank maps before aboarding.
The party ride on Nanjo's boat and set off to Nichirinmaru. Scene cuts to Chitsuru and Kandori, it seems to be Kandori plotting something against Tatsou on his own...hmm..
Walk thorougly to complete the map. There're quite a few harder-to-notice doorways and stairs, don't miss them! I went upstair first and met rumor demon Red Mat at 2B. After defeating him I got its stinky mat..yuk~~^^;;
Now heading downstairs at the engine part of the ship. After walking thoroughly the map. go outside the dock and the party reunited with Tatsuya. Tatsou escaped in helicopter, and a battle with his robots.
Battle with robots: not a tough battle if you got thunder element Persona.
Now the soldier who previously blocking the stairs is gone. Go downstairs further. I got a pop-up message saying my map is finished (can exchange "Special magic card set" later with Salam). Don't forget that you can find a material card in one of the treasure box --- you can summon SUN Lv.46 Iludaba with it)
Tatsuya will be ready with a submarine waiting for the gang (how did he learn to control one ?-__-). Now heading for the headache nightmare dungeon -- Underwater ruins! -__-;;;
Underwater ruins: the floors in this place were so unstable that there're LOTS of fallen traps. You'd find yourrself falling down again and again, tracing back the same route over and over. The dungeon itself is quite complicated as well, many split roads and the ultimate mystery: the unaccessable treasure room.
How to enter the treasure rooms: I've spend 3 bloody hours figuring this out. You must enquire from demon TOWER Lv.42 Aeijuma (others are all useless~~ they tell you NOTHING! >__<), she'll tell you the rumor that Liweiasan (WORLD Lv.39) can destory the wall for you. This is not that hard to get, the second time I met Aeijuma (first time sign contract with her) she already tell me this. The HUGE problem was that she hardly appears! So frustrating!!! Anyway once you got that, meeting Liweiasan (weird spelling..) isn't as hard. Ask him to break wall for you and tada! Inside you can get tons of rare magic cards~~ hoho~~
Another very annoying puzzle: in one room (forgot which floor)there're TONS of fallen holes. Basically you just have to walk step by step, once you land safely, save your game. If the next step you fell, load the game and remember those "fallen spots". After getting thru all those holes, you came upon a small room where you can find 3 treasure boxes with magic cards
Now fall downstairs and head north for the boss battle. I'm fighting Kandori with 4 robots. Tatsuya was just next to us, why wasn't he helping out? -__-;; anyway it's a pretty tough battle, here's my strategy:
First eqiuped members with Persona that has Thunder magic. I have Ulala casting "Magic attack UP" and "Bamboo Plum" (cure-all) ALL the time, while other 4 members all have thunder magic ready. Two by two doing Thunder + thunder combo...that can hurt ALL the robots with about 1000 damage each in one round (Baofu+Nanjo team can do 750+, Maya+Katsuya only do 400). Wipe out the robots as fast as possible. Notice the thunder magic can hardly hurt Kandori (only 30)...which means..he's NOT afraid of thunder. Notice he'll be use a Wind type of magic....so now obviously, use EARTH on him!!! I change my party's Persona with various element magic. I did "Water --> Fire --> Earth" combo on Kandori, and it works pretty well (350+ each round). Hang in there while Ulala just keeps on curing-all. Kandori was defeated after a rather long struggle~~ whew~~
The Ruins are fallen apart, Nanjou was asking Kandori to come with us...^^ (of course he refused). Anyway goodbye to this @#%#^ place. The gang escaped and CG movies time~~
Back to land (my god, feels like years~~~) Katsuya asked why Tatsuya was avoiding him. BaoFu interrupted the brothers affair and reveal, "You ungrateful brat, did you know your brother has been saving up money for you??" A blushing katsuya was panic and wonder how on earth BaoFu found out? ^^;; Ulala said BaoFu had requested Nanjou to did a background check on Katsuya. Tatsuya agreed to reveal what his purpose and why was he acting like this, he wanted the gang to go to Araya Temple.
btw inside La Cleir de Lune, Katsuya was really mad at BaoFu for revealing his "privacy" in front of everybody. BaoFu mocked him back...eventually BaoFu DOES live up to his name---he "revenge" Katsuya for digging out his secret past ^^;; Nanjou seems a little guilty but insist that it's all because of BaoFu's request.
