In this entry, we finally face Cadmium and defeat him, but Cadmium has one last trick up his sleeve...
It's time to head to the cave to the northwest. When you head north to the coast and then west, then follow the passage leading south when you see it. You'll soon reach a cave. Enter it.
Along the way, you'll probably meet the Meltmess. It can cast Slip, but that's pretty much the worst of it regarding this enemy. Beating Meltmess gives you 120 Experience and 287 Gold, as well as a chance at an Alloy Shield drop. If you get it, equip it; it's slightly stronger than what you can get in Torte Village.
At the cave, equip Zap1 and talk to the guard. Microwave will tell you to use Zap1 before the battle, so do that if you want to defeat him. Beating Julian will net you 1500 Experience and 500 Gold. Zap1 costs 10 MP and causes instant death to the target if it connects, but it will not always hit. If it doesn't hit Julian, keep casting Zap1 until you do, as it is the only way to defeat him.
Once Julian is defeated, enter the cave and follow the path. You'll meet some new enemies along the way. The Craw Mom is weak against Bolt Magic. It gives 132 Experience and 320 Gold, as well as a chance at a Chrome Armor drop. Equip it if you find it, as it will be the strongest armor you can get at this point. The Craw Mom can also be met on the way to the cave.
The black shadowy figures that move back and forth are Maxigrems. They can cast Shove, but other than that, they're pretty much vanilla enemies. They give 205 Experience and 209 Gold when defeated.
Bug Boy appears in this cave as well, but it's the same as ever. The same is true of Konklone.
Charczar is another fireball enemy. It is weak against Freeze magic, understandably strong against Flame magic, and can cast Fire 2, which can still pack a punch. It gives 133 Experience and 418 Gold, and has a chance of dropping a Med 3-10 scroll.
The Wig is useless and is only there if you need money.
Make sure you explore all of the floors fully, as you'll miss out on two chests containing a Regain 3 if you fail to do so.
On the final floor, you'll finally meet Cadmium. When he asks if you will face Bio-Haz, pick "No." You'll then face...Cavity? But I thought his name was Cadmium?!? Cavity has 1700 HP and is weak against Bolt magic. Use that along with physical attacks, and heal up with your strongest Heal magic if your HP goes anywhere under 100 HP. He can also cast Shove. He drops 2500 Experience and 2200 Gold, and also has a chance of dropping a Fix. If you get that, hold on to it. You won't be able to get Fixes until near the end of the game, as a Fix fully replenishes all HP and MP outside of battle.
After the battle, you'll find out that the guy's name was Cadmium the whole time, thanks to the message box. Cadmium will congratulate you, saying that if you put your heart into it, you could become a great ruler that surpasses even Bio-Haz, as you has the make of a ruler like him. After Cadmium dies/disappears, Microwave finds out that she has put her back out, and you'll have to carry her on your back on the way out of the cave.
Head back to Torte Village. If you run into any enemies on the way back, you'll be able to fight them, but you won't have Microwave casting spells alongside you in battle. Get Microwave back to the big house on the north end to get her home, then Microwave will tell Sam that Bio-Haz and his followers are from his world, and not the one he is in right now. She says that she has no intention of blaming you, as there is no one else who can match Bio-Haz's power and defeat the great greed which seems to drive him and his minions. (Hey, she said the game name!) Microwave will tell you that the citizens of the kingdom are gathering in Burger, and that you must join them and fight. Say "Yes," then Microwave will tell you to join the people in Burger and that she will catch up with you later.
From Torte Village, head back to Fly Port to the south. At Fly Port, head to the southernmost dock and press A at the boat. You will man the boat with the key, but on the way to the next area, Cadmium will blow up your boat in one last-ditch effort to destroy you. Unfortunately for him, it does not work, as you get rescued by some people. You'll wake up in Caviar Village in the Empire of Soup near a woman named Marcela, and you'll also meet her husband Pint and their son Junior. You'll also find out that you have an injured leg, but it doesn't affect you in anyway in-game. When you try to leave, Marcela will wonder why you want to go to Burger, and that you must go through a blizzard in the mountains and get across the nearby channel to get there.
You'll then be able to explore the village. If you re-enter where you came here from, you'll find a chest containing a Dress, but it won't be able to do anything for you armor-wise.
