HCBailly plays Final Fantasy: Mystic Quest - Part 13 of 23

Three down, one to go.

There are a lot of Cure and Heal Potions here, so stock up when you see the brown chests.

For some reason, the part where you meet the boss here reminds me of StarTropics...except you can't die on the way to meeting him.

The boss here is the Dualhead Hydra.
 

Dualhead Hydra


Strangely enough, the boss isn't weak against Water, so pound him with White and Reuben's Morning Star. The Dualhead Hydra's Para-breath can Paralyze, the Poisonbreath Poisons you, and the Stone Gas will Petrify you. Hope you've got a lot of Heal Potions!

As the battle wears on, the Hydra will lose one of its heads, then it loses the second neck entirely. C'mon, I wanna fight a headless boss!

When you defeat it, you'll free the Fire Crystal. Reuben will mention someone from Windia mentioning a Crystal...then lava will flow out of the volcano, giving you access to another battlefield.

Open the chest nearby to get the Sun Coin, then get out of there by taking the stairs to the right.
 

Lava Dome Battlefield


This one is a bit difficult for the game's standards. You'll usually get hit first, and also Paralyzed and Petrified often. You'll be fighting either Iflytes or Sthenos, often two at a time, so rest often if you need to.

Clearing this battlefield gives you 1068 EXP.
