...Should we stop him from reaching that weird alien guy?
*Shrugs*
(Well, that’s ironic.)

...Some new rules, hm? ...Truthfully, I always wondered when he’d realize that the old rules were... Shall I say, unrefined?
...Not that that’s important right now. Piplup, go ahead and speak with that Bright Man, won’t you? I’ll just keep heading for the stairs and leave these other two for the other teams, seeing as this time of year puts me in such a good mood and all.
* (I understand being a Time robot and all, but why do I have to be this... green gremlin!? I don’t even LIKE the character... Especially since he doesn’t understand that freezing time is NOT A PSYCHIC POWER-)
Am I interrupting something?
Ah, right, sorry. Let’s see, what am I supposed to do here... Ah, yes, of course.
Well, now if you excuse me... I’m going to find new friends with better taste in group costumes.
...Well, that was a waste. At least there are no enemies around here.
That figures. Just spawn whatever, I’m just going to go to the next floor anyways.

Okay, now we're going!
Right, let's go!
...The source of the dark energy isn’t here... Yet, it still seems to have left its mark. ...Perhaps the HQ was onto something, after all...
What the-!? Hey, haven’t people told you not to eavesdrop, Earth robot!? I swear, you’re the second person to have bothered me lately...
...Here. I was given this candy as a part of some Earth ceremony during this time of year. I have no need for it, so I’ll let you have it. In return, you will not tell anyone about this meeting.
...I guess nobody’s going to tell them that they’ve been out in the open for all of us to see and hear this entire time?
Ooooooh no ya don’t. I didn’t come all the way over here to just sit on my
. Go after that green guy or something, I don’t care, just leave this guy to me.
...I mean, hey, it’s your funeral, pal.


Finally, at long last, he’s been caught... Fire Man, the notorious leader of the “Legacy Robots Gang”!
Ever since this guy came around back in April*, countless numbers of Robot Masters with older models have been raiding every known Mystery Dungeon in the world, calling themselves the “superior models”. With their leader captured, they should begin to retreat back to their OWN dungeons.
And it’s all thanks to the four of you. Here, a token of our appreciation...
...And to make matters worse, I’ve been kicked out. Me! And out of my own home, to boot!
Yo, for real? Man, that sucks, dude.
Indeed... What irks me more about it is this strange sense of deja-vu, as in something just like this has happened before...
Um, excuse me. What are you two talking about?
What the two of us were talking about was the fact that my home in the Electrical Tower has been invaded by some hideous beast! It’s been making a mess of everything!
Apparently, the monster waltzed right on in and took over the place! And even more, it seems to be leaving a virus around, causing them to freak out and become... Well, a bunch of jerks!
Rumors have been going around, saying that Electric-core robots have been going around and shorting out people’s teleportation systems... I think that this beast is responsible for their actions!
That’s horrible!
I have been asking for help from the Robot Academy for quite some time now... But due to the rise in disasters recently, none of them are able to help... I came into town to look for someone to help in this predicament...
...Actually, I always found that “slow and steady wins the race” was not the lesson to be learned in that story; In the tale, the Torterra only ever beat the Lopunny because the latter was overconfident. If the Lopunny were to actually finish the race instead of taking a NAP, then the Lopunny would’ve won the race five times over before the Torterra could even get halfway across.
The POINT is, the TRUE moral of the story is to NEVER let your guard down, and NEVER underestimate your opponent. NOT “slow and steady wins the race”. If anything, the fact that it took this long to GET to the first story mission when it took you a simple matter of days the last time only PROVES that you have grown lackluster as a Roleplayer.
...My confidence in my ability is not at fault for my past failures. That FREAK of a Rotom holds more power than a lowlife like him has ANY right to bear. You know this as well as I do, seeing as you, too, have been a victim of his annual “holiday cheer”.
Now, if we can stop talking about
insignificant GNATS
for a moment, I’d like to point out that I have just reached the stairs.
Hmm, a tempting offer. On the one hand, I could possibly gain more EXP from the story mission, but on the other...
...Say, Piplup. How close are we, exactly, to that Outlaw we’re after?
The mission log says that the outlaw Picket Man is on the 4th floor. We are currently on the 2nd, with the 3rd floor right within your reach.
I see... In that case...
...We shall proceed as we were. We’ve already made the halfway mark, so I see no reason for us to abandon the objective now. And whether those other two decide to follow me to the end, or to leave for the story event, that’s their choice.

Hmm. Aside from the Halloween NPCs, there doesn’t seem to be a whole lot to this floor... Should make this a cakewalk.
Oh, come on! We just got here!
I mean, we could just decline, couldn't we?
Well, sure, but... *Sigh* Let's just go see what's so "big".
Huh? I mean, sure, but I thought-
(...I thought I was the leader?)
Right, where's the thing they mentioned?
Maybe the mission board? ..Huh? "Beast in Electrical Tower"?
Is that the "big" thing? Seems more like a clickbait news article.
I mean... Everything else is relatively mundane, but this request is kinda old... (I don't remember seeing it before, was it flagged as a troll or something?) I think it's worth a look, at least.
Eh... I guess it's better than nothing...
Right, but let's go see if there's anything useful at the shops first.
guess we gotta go
Hey! Watch it, partner!
