In this entry, we take on another boss, then we open up the path between the two villages further before heading towards more of the land of Odessia.
Now that you can access the other staircase at the start of the first dungeon, you can now push the rock to the left to access it. You'll find an ax and a crown for your stats along the way, and you'll eventually be at Melba Village.
The people of Melba Village are happy that you have beaten the Bullbeast, but warn that the Gutworm lurks below. You'll also find out about the Ruvid Statue that you'll have to destroy to get to Baron Castle.
To the south of the village is several blue slime generators as well as the nearby Ruvid Statue. You'll have to go down the stairs near the blue slimes; the Ruvid Statue will have to wait.
In this dungeon, there will be plenty of flamethrower statues that you'll have to keep your distance while destroying them. This is where your ability to aim your attacks diagonally will be put to the test for the first time. Also, the gaping spiral-shaped openings that open and close are enemy generators.
The winged boots increase your speed.
Some floors may move you slowly in a certain direction. These floors act like conveyor belts, so watch where you're going. Thankfully, you can move against them, though it will take some effort, depending on how high your agility is. If it's not high enough, you're not budging at all.
Aside from the soldiers (the red ones of which shoot projectiles at you). there are also gray pillbug-like enemies that will fire at you and also drop white potions.
Flames hurt. Be careful when grabbing stuff near the flames moving in a circle, and definitely be careful and get rid of the flamethrower statues from an angle whenever possible to take them out safely at this point. If your agility is high enough, you can skip the ones near the end entirely.
The blue potion will give you some health back.
To beat the Gutworm, get the most distance you can between you and the boss as you shoot at it. If it gets closer to you, move elsewhere and start attacking again.
Now that you've taken care of the Gutworm, there are two stairways you can take at the end of the dungeon. One takes you to the Ruvis Statue so you can destroy it (destroying it is tied to your password) and the other one takes you to uncharted territory. Take out the Ruvis Statue first, then go back through the tavern and then through the dungeon again to get to the new land if you have to. Otherwise, just go back through the stairs you came out from and go to the new land. Also, some of the people of Melba Village will have new things to say once you defeat the Gutworm and destroy the Ruvis Statue.
If you decide to do the former, the King will tell you to go through Melba Village and enter Baron Castle to defeat the Grimrose before giving you a Black magic charge and a White magic charge.
If you see a stream with two bridges, then congratulations! You're in the new land! Continue east and go through the stairs for another dungeon.
