chapter 4 "The Town Well"
|
|
|
|
This one is really tricky. There are wheels to turn, levers to pull,
|
|
grates to open, and as a weak little human you can't do it all yourself...
|
|
or can you? This isn't called a cheat book for nothing.
|
|
|
|
All righty we're going to call upon some of the stuff you've already done.
|
|
We need to head back to the town and deposit any cash you picked up and
|
|
sell any heavy armor you may have that you don't really need (like the
|
|
leather boots and jacket from the mansion or chainmail from the church)
|
|
and then deposit that money too. Get in the habit of watching your
|
|
encumbrance. Keep that weird gray amulet if you found it in the church, though.
|
|
And that access badge from Kleiner!
|
|
|
|
It's especially important now because you'e about to go fetch a bunch of
|
|
heavy equipment to get this quest done.
|
|
|
|
So if you're still at Roshd, head back to town:
|
|
|
|
1s, 1e, 1n, 1u
|
|
dial cave
|
|
enter gate
|
|
out
|
|
26s, 5e, 1n
|
|
sell blue jeans
|
|
sell white shirt (etc)
|
|
1s, 1w, 3n, 1e
|
|
deposit all
|
|
|
|
Ok now back to the Campus lab
|
|
|
|
1w, 3s, 4w, 26n

|

|
|

|

Yeah dude. A rocket pack and a portal generator. Sweet. Save those for a little later.

|

|
What? What is this? A mech? What? Yes indeed. There should be a landstrider mech
|
|
here...looking kind of like ED-209 from Robocop but with a seat you can get into.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
You're in an underground tunnel that has a very heavy door that you can't open
|
|
yourself if you're a puny human, so you're goig to have to get the mech to
|
|
open it for you, once you get the key. Let's leave the mech here for now.
|
|
|
|
Make sure you get that badge back or you won't be able to get back here.
|
|
|
|
enter portal
|
|

|
|

|
|
|
|
All right so we've unlocked that super heavy door and had the mech open it,
|
|
then we had the mech open the super heavy grate. There are other ways to solve
|
|
this problem, and they involve killing a human and then making it into a zombie.
|
|
If you want to try that solution (or the mech or portal are not available), read the
|
|
player hints book and that will guide you through. Otherwise, this method is the
|
|
quick and dirty. Now we need to open up the water wheel so that water can start
|
|
flooding the overhead chamber...but we also want to wear some gear that will
|
|
let us breathe underwater in case we don't type fast enough.
|
|
|
|
Remember all that crud you grabbed from the lab table earlier? One of those things
|
|
was an A98 breathing device. This will help. If you don't have it handy, just be sure
|
|
you can type fast. The next steps will flood the rooms you are in, and as a human
|
|
you are not super great at breathing water.
|
|
|
|
enter portal
|
|
2w
|
|
wear a98
|
|
turn wheel
|
|
2e
|
|
enter portal
|
|
remove a98
|
|
|
|
Ok! What's happening now is that a bunch of water is flooding the rooms you were
|
|
in. It's flooding upwards into a chamber near the town well. This will take a few
|
|
minutes. Once that's done, we'll head over to the well and open a door that lets
|
|
the water into the well, solving the quest.
|
|
|
|
Another thing the water is doing is flooding along the corridor you were in, and
|
|
filling up a locked-up room with water. This is a really really good thing, because
|
|
that room has a cave troll that you need to be dead for a different quest, and it is
|
|
much easier to have it die from drowning than to have to kill it with combat.
|
|
|
|
All right, let's head up to the well.
|
|
|
|
2n
|
|
dial cave
|
|
enter gate
|
|
out
|
|
26s, 4e, 1s
|
|
enter well
|
|
|
|
Ok here we are. Has it been a few minutes? Maybe 5 or so? Let's go ahead and open
|
|
that flood door:
|
|
|
|
pull lever
|
|
|
|
If that doesn't work, push the lever and wait some more and try again. If that still
|
|
doesn't work, you may need to try the zombie solution.
