Crap, I thought that was gonna be automated. Ah well.

Phantasm moves four spaces up.
Shired does the same.
Cacnea moves two spaces left.
Picket Man moves three spaces left.

---

Okay, new strat. Head over to Arctic Jungle instead, now I know to be careful around people who have seed items.

   you, that's what!

Aeon's Chaingun goes into Mobile Turret Mode, revealing FOUR EXTRA SETS OF BARRELS, and Aeon fires as much bullets as possible at Frostfire Man!

---

Aeon | HP: 183/200 | ATK: 87 | DEF: 175 ▲▲▲▲▲ | SPD: 283(.5) ▲▲▲▲▲▲▲

Enayrk moves one space right and two up, and uses a Regular Attack on Blader 1!
Mondegreen moves 3 spaces up and 2 right!

Shired reaches the stairs and heads to the next floor.

---

Well, I still don't see how Core Laser can help unless it can target multiple robots at once. Eh, whatever, I'll try as hard as possible.

Enayrk throws his Time Core south somehow!
Mondegreen fires a Core Laser at Flea 2!

You SERIOUSLY think I don't have something up my sleeve for situations like this one? Well guess what, I DO happen to have one of these types of things!

Aeon then pulls out a tin of ...Catnip? And then he... downloads it into his face? Suddenly, everything becomes super slow from Aeon's point of view, but not Aeon himself, making him look SUPER FAST to other people!

Yeah baby, I AM the lizard king!

Suddenly, Aeon pulls out a Chaingun and shoots a bunch of bullets at the Tackle Frostfires, making sure to get away from any potential attack when they're all dead!

---

Aeon | HP: 183/200 | ATK: 87 | DEF: 175 ▲▲▲▲▲ | SPD: 315 ▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲

Yes, you're reading that correctly. EIGHT WHOLE STAGES. And it would have gotten even BIGGER the more stages Aeon had in speed.

Team Fractal Requiem moves as far down as possible.

---

Seriously, even the EARLY dungeons are kicking my rear? Seriously, what EVEN with the defense on those fleas!

Mondegreen tries using a Regular Attack!

Aeon has a feeling that something BIG is coming up, so he uses Defense Mode!

---

Aeon | HP: 183/200 | ATK: 87 | DEF: 175 ▲▲▲▲▲ | SPD: 31(.5) ▼▼

Shired moves four spaces south and creates a Gate Block to his right!
Phantasm moves one space right and three south, and shoots a Break Laser at Picket Man 1!
Cacnea moves two spaces south and picks up the Bolts at his feet somehow!

---

Enayrk moves two spaces up and fires a Buster Shot at the Octo Battery north of him!
Mondegreen moves four spaces up and fires a Crystal Shot at the same Octo Battery, if possible! If she can't, she instead uses Buster Charge.

Phantasm heads to the stairs, and moves on to the next floor!

---

  Welp, at least I was able to inflict some damage on that Zeta guy.
  Anyway, Imma go head back to that place with the flying clocks.
  Oh no you don't! I am NOT going to risk letting you get scrapped by a bunch of high-tier bots TWICE!
  Ugh, fine, what's YOUR idea of a decent area to git gud in?
  How 'bout the Abandoned Warerhouse? There's TONS of floor-scrubbing trampolines there!
  Look, Mondegreen, or whatever the hell nickname you prefer? I'm pretty sure there's nothing to fight at a place that's ABANDONED. It's right in the name, for crying out loud!
  Well it's either that, or a massive steel-producing facility that has open pits of lava. Barring that, there's this secret area with flying buzzsaws and a ton of straght-up torture devices. Your choice!
  I'LL TAKE THE ABANDONDED WAREHOUSE THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE OFFER.

Team Mirage heads over to the Abandoned Warehouse!

  Nah, you ain't turning the Guts Dozer into your new personal dreadnaought.
  In fact, we're gonna trash it before you even get the chance to face it in combat.
  ...REALLY wishing I brought Shark Man along, though.

Team Fractal Requiem moves as far down as possible.

---

Enayrk moves a space up and uses Buster Shot on Zeta!

...YOU of all people, huh.
Just gonna get this out of the way, MKII; do NOT attempt in any way to interfere with our mission, or you WILL pay the price. HARD.
Then again, I plan to beat you up ANYWAY, so really you're just accelerating the inevitable in that case.

Phantasm moves four spaces down. So does Shired.
Chandelure moves two spaces right and uses Magma Bazooka on Bombomb!
Cacnea moves two spaces down.

By the way, I DID know a guy named Aeon, but I haven't seen him since he set out to collect those "Dragon Emerald" thingamaboppers.

---

...Wait, how'd Mondegreen get over THERE?

Enayrk uses a Regular Attack on Zeta!
Imma automate Mondegreen's turn.

Cacnea and Chandelure move two spaces down.
Phantasm moves two spaces down and two left, and tries to pick up whatever's on the floor.
Shired does the same, but with no item collection.

---

Enayrk moves two spaces left and uses Adhesive Shot on Treble!
Mondegreen moves two spaces left, and three spaces up, and then as far left as possible, if possible!

Man, this is REALLY starting to get stupid; why the hell are there like FIVE enemies on this floor alone? I get that this is supposed to force people to git gud, but this seems like a tad overkill. Besides, not like I can hit multiple people AT ONCE!
Wait, AT ONCE? Holy , I think we have an ability like that!
Yeah, but it KIIINDA cuts my stats in half, including my TPS- that's Tachyoses Per Second, by the way- and I'm pretty sure one more tap on the shoulder is gonna turn me into a bunch of glowy bouncy balls that move in cardinal and diagonal directions.
Oh. Welp, guess that makes it pretty much useless then.

[Team Fractal Requiem] leaves the dungeon, and if possible, switches out Shark Man for Cacnea! They then head out to the Mountain Mines!

Enayrk moves two spaces right and uses Speed Buster on Treble!
Mondegreen moves two spaces down and uses Crytstal Buster on Viking MKII(?) 1!

Shired moves two three spaces down and two left, STAT, and picks up the Speed Capsule, ALSO STAT!

---

Enayrk and Mondegreen IMMEDIATELY use Buster Charge!

Phantasm uses a Speed Capsule on Shired!
Shired moves one space left, and then as far down as possible!

---

Enayrk flails his dinky little not-human arms at Treble! (Regular Attack)

There's the Speed Capsule! Quickly, grab it before the other team can!

Shired moves two spaces left and two down!
Phantasm moves one space down and three left, picking up the Speed Pellet!
Chandelure mvoes two spaces down!

---

Enayrk unleashes his Speed Buster!

Aeon immediately Blood Punches the Blader!

Phantasm heads to the next floor!

---

Enayrk uses Buster Charge!
Mondegreen gets as far away from Treble as possible!

Alright, nice thinking. Treble's Doppelganger shouldn't be able to reach you with his attack, AND since I'm the only one he can target, that means he can only do 1 damage per turn.
...Why exactly DOES Treble have a Doppelganger, anyhow?
Magic.
Magic isn't real, Mondegreen.
(Then again, neither are robot dogs with doppelgangers, nor are shields with rockets strapped to them, mutant clocks, or hands that can turn into guns.)
If magic isn't real, then explain why there are giant clumps of paper in the sky!
Those are clouds.

Phantasm moves one space up, and three spaces right.

---

Mondegreen uses Crystal Buster on Komuso Man!
Enayrk fires a Buster Shot at Treble!
