This should be the place...
Should be the place? Do I have remind you what happened last time* you said that?
Well, no, but this place is closer to the icon and looks a lot more gentle-y and countryside-y than that freaky forest* so..

Suddenly, er.. Whatever happens when someone enters a mystery dungeon.. happens?(I'm assuming something happens since if not some of the MDs would just be a random warzone/criminal hideout with "floors" in the middle of a relatively chill area. Alternatively, they just find an entrance somewhere.)

Huh. Looks like we're here.
Finally! Time to kick some bu-
..Why are there two Skull Men here?
..According to my scanners, they're also part of the Robot Academy.
Oh. That's.. good?
Wait, I thought you said there wasn't anyone else here!
Huh?! But- Oh. Looks like this part either isn't supposed to show everyone.. or it's outdated.
Huh..
Yeah.. Well, uh.. This is going to cause some.. complications. Maybe we should look somewhere else?
What?! NO! I did not run through that field of eyeballs* just to bail as soon as we got here! We're going in, no excuses! (Besides, if this place is already occupied, then the other dungeons probably are too.)
I guess you have a point.. Alright, I'll grab that pellet, you head for the stairs behind.. umm.. "Skull Man".

Parallax moves 2 spaces left and 1 space up and picks up the Weapon Pellet.

Wait, why am I the one going for the stairs?
Because.. you're closer to them?
Oh. Right.

Er, excuse me?
Tesstra moves 3 spaces up.(If she can't move through Skull Man then she only moves up 1 space.)

*Referring to an unspecified event that happened on the way here that I will likely never elaborate on.

...Hm.

Punch Man raises his gauntlet for a Buster Shot!



And... does Bluescreen Punch instead.

Under the pretense of energy conservation, Buster Shot.

Okay seriously though, Punch Punch.

Punch Man continues to use Inverted Punch.

He's likely trying to get us to deal more damage to him so he can power up further. Why he needs us to do that is beyond me, but that isn't important right now.
What is important right now is lowering that power as much as we can.

Punch Man uses Inverted Punch!

@Beta Shadow : Did you forget that Revolution Flame lowers defense and to update the debuffs in the character sheet or is Betan not going below -3 defense for some reason?

Anyways, Punch Man stands there dumbfounded for a second before deciding to return the gesture with Buster Shot.

He's probably going to do the refresh any time now.
I'll try to mitigate it when it comes.

Punch Man uses Inverted Punch.

Another one... Was he one of the humans of this world? Or was he part of another species?
Also, I'm sorry, "void"?

Punch Man Punch Punches the Anti-Omni Remmant Fl.

Punch Man recovers from the BSOD(again) and uses Punch Punch.

... ... ...


He then proceeds to.. fall over onto Beta Satan? Bluescreen Punch.

As Punch Man regains consciousness from the BSOD, he looks around at the burned(?) surroundings.

If anyone has anything held back, I suggest using it now.

He then moves in for an Inverted Punch!

Oh. Oh no.
Punch Man uses Inverted Punch.
(I think he should have enough WE for Inverted Punch? If not then Bluescreen Punch.)

Good news; you now have two defense.
Punch Man uses Inverted Punch.

While you may have a point...

Punch Man uses Punch Punch on Beta Satan!
Why would anyone care? Were you expecting us to lash out in despair? Leave ourselves open while having a existential crisis? Or are you trying to suggest nihilism?
In that case, how about you make yourself an example, and give up right now?

Punch Man continues spinning with Inverted Punch!

Punch Man moves in for a triple spinning backhand using Inverted Punch!

Reboot Complete.
That was.. weird. ...All systems operational.. *notices Beta Satan*
Enemy re-engaged.

Punch Man attacks with Punch Punch!

(Wait, Punch Man healed himself 3 turns ago! He should have survived!)

Well, if Punch Man is alive, he subconsciously uses Punch Punch while rebooting from the error last turn.

(Also, are the boss's stat buffs/debuffs affected by the boss multiplier? Since Beta Satan has 2 stages of Speed buff but has +4 Speed.)

You know, that intro mission was so easy I don't even remember a thing that happened in there!
I.. don't think that's a good thing.. We were supposed to be learning some important stuff in there...
Well, I mean, what's there to learn anyway? We just take missions, and then complete them! Speaking of.. where do we... take those missions?
Here, probably? Rescue.. Defeat.. How about this one?
At Gentle Countryside? Sure, let's go!
Right. Wait.. do we even know where Gentle Countryside is?
Nope! But we'll find it eventually, probably. Now c'mon! Let's go!

Team Comet Collision departs for Gentle Countryside!
