Okay. Before we head to level 3, let's bank our cash by leaving the job for the day.
We're still short of enough money to make a appreciable difference with car mods, so we'll head back to the Minato Building. We should at least have our health back. It seems enemies, but not items respawn.
But we had an ulterior motive for returning home - we want to check our phone messages! After all, we gave that store attendant lady our phone number, and she promised us her friend would get in contact with us when she got back from the USA.
Whilst we've been off heroically slaying demons, I expect it has been ringing of the hook...
:
On the phone…
:
Everyone's calling!!
:
Just kidding.
I…. don't know what that was all about. I think it was some self deprecating joke about the fact Taro has zero messages. Or maybe it's a oblique reference to a early 90s Japanese television commercial.
Regardless, I hope this theoretical future girlfriend contacts us soon. All those gifts we bought for her are getting rather dented and bloody from being used to crush the skulls of delinquents and thugs.
Speaking of which, let's head back in!
Once more into the unknown.
Taro is very keen to use his new sword, so we’ll make sure that the next person that gets into our sight will be cut into cut into tiny gory pieces.
...Uh. Oh dear…
Uh, sorry miss….
That was okay to do right?
... I hear those ballerina’s are all drug fiends… right? That’s how they keep their trim figures?
Anyway, let's take our minds of it by slicing up some other people.
Yes. This'll do. We feel much less guilty about carving up Macho Man here.
Not to mention his slightly more melatonin'd friend, The Body Builder.
The Thief alien is back too, this time in red and yellow form.. he is a Robber!
And don't forget The Assassin, who looks like our old nemesis The Thug, but wearing yellow.
On this floor we continue to find new and varied items:
The Magic Potion as far as I can tell is a health boost. It may have other properties.
We've also found ourselves some new, more heavy duty replacements for our corset and hard hat that should provide some additional armour.
I also found that either the Magic Potion or the Underdog Jersey seems to be having some sort of magic shield effect against attacks.
Eventually we meet the boss of this floor The Queen
She spares no time in letting Taro know that he's been naughty...
