Mother 3 - Ch. 16 - Highway Journey
0So last time, we began the arduous search for the Egg of Light Duster hid three years ago. It was unfortunately stashed in a Clayman that was animated at the very moment the Egg was found. The Clayman ran off and after a series of hijinks, headed towards the highway. The party follows in Pork Bean pursuit.
What's gonna happen now? Let's find out...
CHAPTER 16 - HIGHWAY JOURNEY
Keep heading west. When you enter the second tunnel area equip any DCMC Fan Books you have because the time to use' em in battle is about to come up. A Pig Mask soldier will arrive and mistake Lucas for his commander. He will lend you the Pork Bean. However, you find a banana peel and crash. The Fierce Pork Trooper returns to give you another Pork Bean, but suddenly realizes who you really are. It's battle time.
BOSS FIGHT - Fierce Pork Trooper (HP - 1,758)
The Fierce Pork Trooper is a huge push over if you have any DCMC items equipped. All you need to do, is select any DCMC item in your inventory and use it on him. He will become jealous and won't be able to attack for two or three rounds. If you don't have any DCMC items this fight is much harder. The Fierce Pork Trooper can hit hard so keep your HP up at all times. Have Duster use Scary Mask and Kumatora use Offense and Defense Down Alpha. Soon enough he will fall.
With the Fierce Pork Trooper beaten, he retreats leaving his working Pork Bean. Save with the nearby frog then take it and head north and go in the tunnel on the left. Inside you will come across a present with the Highway Map. Keep going west and you will see a refueling station and a present with a Doggy Biscuit inside. Don't use this as you can trade it for a better item soon. Keep going west and you will eventually come across a present with Gemini Bracelet inside and a Save Frog. Head back east to the refueling station you passed.
If you're lucky, you may encounter a rare enemy in the tunnels: the Bright Smile. You'll earn 2,000 DP for each one.
Head north from the recharge station. You'll eventually come to a construction area. Park the Pork Bean by the small dirt hill, and talk to the nearby mouse. She asks you to find her children and have them come home. Your reward will be the Shield Snatcher, an extremely useful item, especially later in the game.
Keep going north and park your Pork Bean once you get to a cliff. Hop out and speak to the stray dog. Give him your Doggy Biscuit in exchange for a powerful Pencil Rocket.
You need to recharge your Pork Bean now. If you don't, it will run out of power very soon, and you'll have to walk everywhere from now on. Use the recharge station here, but be sure to recharge it properly or it'll explode!
Follow the highway and cross over a suspension bridge. This leads to another tunnel that will eventually bring you out into the parking area. In this area there are no enemies so you are safe to explore. There is a present next to the Item Dude that contains a Brown Collar. There is also an Incredible Capsule and a Save Frog that you should use. The snack cart is also selling some new equipment that will prove to be helpful. Lastly, you can talk to the locals and explore the small cafe. When you are all done head into the east tunnel.
There is a robot sitting on the recharging station. He wants you to recharge him for EXACTLY 15 seconds. Play this little mini-game with him and you can win some DP. If you hit the A button between 1~10 seconds you get 1 DP, 11~14 seconds 50 DP, and at exactly 15 seconds you get 100 DP. Go over that and the robot will explode. You can keep coming back here as much as you want to earn DP, or just blow the robot up if you're into that sort of thing.
As soon as you enter this tunnel, take the south path to a small room. In here is Leo amongst many presents. Keep talking to him and he will eventually let you open one. But no matter which one you pick, they all contain a Hand-knit Sweater. Leave and continue east.
You have finally found the garbage dump where the Clayman has ended up! Climb down the ladder to finally claim the Egg of Light. But suddenly the party is attacked by the Forlorn Junk Heap!
BOSS FIGHT - Forlorn Junk Heap (HP - 1,818)
Start off by having Kumatora and Duster lower the Forlorn Junk Heaps his Offense and Defense, and then raise Duster and Lucas's Offense. Have them attack while Kumatora uses PK Fire. Have Boney use Pencil Rockets and healing items as needed. This battle shouldn't be too difficult.
With the Forlorn Junk Heap sent to the junk heap for good, Duster collects the Egg of Light. After touching the egg he has a flashback and finally recovers his memory. But you don't get to celebrate long as a Pig Mask arrives and once again Lucas is mistaken for their commander. You are then taken to the Thunder Tower...
But first, it's time to take a break. Join us next time for 'Ch. 17 - Thunder Tower'.
