Part 127: Bullshit seals.




Update 73



Back to the fifth, advancement shall happen.




There is one large node per layer, which is rather convenient.



This part is pure bullshit. Pure unadultered bullshit.




On the other hand, the enemies tend to fall to guns as well, so whatever.




See?




Well, screw that. No way.



Trying this is worth a try.







Not a bad increase.





Unfortunately, it is not effective.



Better just to use this.





That was fortunately quite short.



And regular access to all abilities is restored.



"Mazandyne
Force Resist"







Oh boy!

Wikilink

Defeating Narasimha and getting his sword is a requirement for a secret boss.



Narasimha is very dangerous if he gets his turn, but he can be oneshotted with a Mind Charged Reincarnate.




And luckily, it was acquired in the very first try. Hooray!



This is a good thing.



Excellent, time to buy things.




That is quite cheap for an ultimate mantra. Thus, it will be acquired.






Oh my. More bullshit seals.





Well, fuck you, Ultimecia. Fuck you.







Any similarities with Portal are probably coincidences. Also, only red ones are pass through, since blue ones are only exits.





One way doors. Yaaay.






One less turn. That sucks a lot. Probably even more than human-only sections.






"Bufudyne
Cold Wave
Ice Amp"







That was not too horribly bad either. At least it was not a teleporty dungeon with 5 or so times as much crawling   Kill me now 




"Maragion
Fire Drain"




Pretty manageable, I would say.






At least they have the decency to put convenient small nodes everywhere.






This one will last for a single battle, I guess.




That means that there is something there that requires SOMETHING ELSE to be accessed. Clearly, Narasimha's master is not behind this door.




Oh boy! I wonder who it can be?

Next update: Another layer, another boss.
