HCBailly plays Soul Blazer - Part 20 of 33


It's time to take care of some loose ends before heading to Dr. Leo's laboratory!


Lune



Go back to the area you opened up in the dream world and interact with where the mushroom stood there. You'll find Master's Emblem F.

To the left of that you will find a monster's lair that will release the soul of another snail...but that snail is in an area you cannot yet access.

There is nothing left to do, so head to the doorway to the north. There you will face yet another boss.

To beat Poseidon, stay away from the spear so you can avoid the three-way shots and the fireballs. After the three-way shot, hold out your sword with L or R and stand in the center so you don't get stabbed. When two fireballs are shot out simultaneously, dodging will be easier if you are in the center of the room, since you can walk back and then walk forward. If you're at the sides, you'll have to move towards the center and walk backwards into the partitions in the back wall.

If a boss has more than 50 HP, their health bar will be a different color. Poseidon's health bar starts out green, but then turns light blue before becoming the regular blue color.

When you beat Poseidon, you'll release the King and open up the throne room.

Soul of Mountain House


To reach the snail you freed after entering the Dream World, there is a hidden path in the wall south of the teleporter pad leading to the shrine. The snail will give you Master's Emblem E if you speak to it.

The snail in the jail is Nome, who used to live in Dr. Leo's house. Nome will tell you how Dr. Leo was asked by King Magridd to build the machine that called upon evil, and that Dr. Leo refused and was sent to Magridd Castle. Nome also tells you that Dr. Leo gave him and three other people four stones and told them to run away. The stones are keys to the World of Evil, and the rest are located in Dr. Leo's Laboratory and in the Castle of Magridd. Nome will give you the Silver Stone and tells you to head to Dr. Leo's lab.

The boy in the jail tells you that there is a house in the desert to the southwest, and that there are mechanical monsters in this desert that cannot be destroyed by normal swords.

The throne room is south of the Grandpa near the logs. The Grandmas near the King will be able to call the Phoenix is you can collect the Master's three symbols.

Talk to the King. The King will apologize for treating Nome poorly and putting him in prison for telling him that monsters would invade the mountain. He will tell you to talk to Nome, and also tells you about the three Master's items that will summon the Phoenix: the Red-Hot Mirror, the Red-Hot Ball and The Red-Hot Stick. He asks you to bring them all to him if you find them.

It's time to head to the next area. Don't forget to save.


To the east of St. Elle's (and southeast of the mountain) is Dr. Leo's Laboratory. Time to head there.

Dr. Leo's Laboratory



Dr. Leo's Laboratory is run down and has holes in the floor. The door in the room you arrive at will tell you that there are machines lurking around that only the Zantetsu Sword can destroy. The door then opens. If you face left in a doorway, you can talk to a door again.

To the left after that door is a set of stairs. Go down.

Laboratory Basement



You want to go north immediately, take out the worms, step on the lair, go to the right, take out the robo-maids and step on the monster lair there to release the soul of a Great Door. This allows you quick and easy access to the room with the chest containing the Zantetsu Sword. You'll need to be Level 16 to equip it.

The worms are very easy to take out. Just stand in front of the lair and keep swinging. The robo-maids are pretty hilarious, but they stop being funny when they shoot you with an eight-way soapy bubble shot. No, seriously. That is what their projectiles are. 

As you go through the basement and step on monster lairs, you'll release the souls of other doors that will let you enter other areas.

After getting the Zantetsu Sword, you'll want to go all the way back to the Grass Valley Highlands and take the shortcut to Leo's Paintings.

Leo's Paintings



With the Zantetsu Sword equipped, you can kill the mental enemies near the room leading to Solid Boss. This will allow you to release another ivy ladder that leads to another gem.

To the south of that, there are more metal monsters to kill. Go back to where you came in from and step on the monster lair to release yet another ivy ladder that doesn't seem to be very useful.

South of that is a monster lair that releases a chest that gives you the Tornado magic. It's just a tornado that shows up and randomly moves around.
