Open the door to the side to continue.
__ Mining Area __
Follow the tunnel and eventually Leon will stumble upon two Ganados. Shoot
them and continue. An overhead mine cart will be up above the track near the
end - this will be used in just a few minutes.
/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------\
| [ ] Velvet Blue | Inside the first mine cart to the right |
\-----------------------------------------------------------------------------/
Leon will enter an excavation site with several Ganados below. Drop down below
and shoot them then search the area for pickups. Walk over to the lever and
press it to more the mine cart up above. It will fall on the tracks and lower
about halfway, but the power will shut off.
/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------\
| [ ] Velvet Blue | Inside the mine cart beside the tracks |
| [ ] Shotgun Ammo | Inside of a crate on a raised area to the right (west |
| | side) |
| [ ] 2800 PTAS | Lying on a crate near the raised are describe above |
| [ ] 5000 PTAS | On some sandbags behind the second lever |
\-----------------------------------------------------------------------------/
Run up the stairs to the south and pull the lever at the top to turn the power
back on. Rush back down the stairs. Some more Ganados and a chainsaw Ganado
will appear up ahead so take out a shotgun and fight them off. The Gandos will
drop down from the side with the ladder.
/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------\
| [ ] 10000 PTAS | Defeat the chainsaw Ganado |
\-----------------------------------------------------------------------------/
Pull the lever once again near the tracks to lower the mine cart the rest of
the way. Run over to the mine cart and pick up the --DYNAMITE-- from inside.
Walk over to the rocks on the right side of the first lever and place the
dynamite on the rocks then run away. The dynamite will explode and a new path
will be open to reach the set of doors on the other side. Open the doors to
continue.
__ Lava Pit __
Notice the lever to the left side. The lever will open and close the circular
trapdoor with lava below it in the center of the room. There is also a ladder
on the right side of the room that leads up to a handle that Leon can grab onto
and swing over to the lever from.
/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------\
| [ ] First Aid | To the right, on top of some rocks |
| Spray | |
| [ ] Shotgun Ammo | To the left, on top of some rocks by the lever |
| [ ] Flash Grenade | On the right side of the room on top of some rocks |
\-----------------------------------------------------------------------------/
Approach the doors on the opposite side. Two El Gigantes will enter the room.
Either fight them both normally with Flash Grenades followed by constant shots
from the broken butterfly or make one of them fall into the lava.
To lead one into the lava, climb up the ladder and wait until one of them start
to move over to the platform - they will shake it if you stay on too long.
Grab ahold of the handle and swing across to the lever on the other side. Grab
the lever (Leon will look toward the middle after the first A press) and wait
for one of them to step over the middle trapdoor. Once one is on it, pull the
lever to make him fall into the lava. Do not get close to the center lava pool
while the El Gigante struggles or he will grab Leon and pull him in the pool
with him, killing him instantly. Only one can be trapped in the lava since the
lever will malfunction after the first drops in. Defeat the other El Gigante
with flash grenades and the broken butterfly. The TMP works alright as well if
it is powered up.
The interesting aspect of taking them both on normally is that one will just
stand back and watch while the other attacks Leon, so basically you're only
fighting one at a time still. Both El Gigante must be defeated without the use
of the lava trap in order to collect both peseta amounts. In the Gamecube
version the pesetas for the one killed in the lava would spawn once the room
was exited and returned to. In the PS2 and Wii version, that gaming bug was
fixed.
The door that sealed before will open once both are defeated in whichever way.
Open the doors to the side once the battle is finished.
/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------\
| [ ] 15000 | Defeat the first El Gigante (without the lava trap) |
| [ ] 15000 | Defeat the second El Gigante (without the lava trap) |
\-----------------------------------------------------------------------------/
__ Novistador Cave __
Follow the tunnel ahead to arrive in a bluish cave. This place is crawling
with Novistadors, so you may get another chance at a blue eye for the butterfly
lamps. The Novistadors that fly in the air are extremely weak but the grounded
one are still just as tough. Use the TMP to shoot the ones that fly and break
out the shotgun for the Novistadors that attack from the ground.
Examine the pedestal upon first entering the cave for the following message:
"The two lights shall shine light on a new path."
The phrase will become clear once the cave is explored a bit. Move up the path
to the right and blast the flying Novistadors to the left. There is a sealed
door in the south portion of this area, so don't go there yet.
/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------\
| [ ] Green Herb | To the left of the first pedestal |
| [ ] Flash Grenade | To the right while moving up the first path |
| [ ] Shotgun Ammo | At the very top of the first path, directly across |
| | from the top |
| [ ] Green Herb | Inside the first tunnel (west tunnel) |
\-----------------------------------------------------------------------------/
At the top turn right and enter the tunnel to the on the left wall (once
turned). Press the block that is sticking out below the carving on the wall.
The block will light up and a light on a carving beside the sealed door in the
south will turn on. Novistadors will crawl down the tunnel and attack so get a
shotgun or TMP ready and start blast them. Defeat the flying Novistadors
first.
Exit the cave and turn left then follow that path. A few flying Novistadors
will attack along the way. All the way to the east, enter the next tunnel.
More flying Novistadors will attack at the front of the tunnel. Press the
block on the carving at the bottom of the tunnel to make the other carving
outside light up. With both carvings shining light on the mirror in the east,
it will reflect toward the south door and the door will start to melt and a new
path will be revealed.
/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------\
| [ ] TMP Ammo | In the northwest corner of the tunnel |
| [ ] Handgun Ammo | Outside the second tunnel (east tunnel) |
| [ ] Green Herb | Inside the second tunnel (west tunnel) |
\-----------------------------------------------------------------------------/
Novistadors will enter the tunnel and attack so get the TMP or shotgun out and
get ready to blast them as they enter. Move across the bridge and defeat any
remaining Novistadors in the area. Examine the gate and press the switch on
the gate to open it.
Run under the first compacter in the tunnel then climb up to the raised area up
ahead ahead. Fall down then quickly move under the next compactor when it
raises then fall again. Pull the lever to the left to make the middle
compactor up ahead stop moving - it will remain up in the ceiling. Carefully
move under the first compactor then get under the second (the deactivated one)
and wait until the third moves upward then rush under it.
Follow the tunnel all the way to the end. Run up the pedestal and pick up the
Royal Insinia to finish up the Crown treasures. Check the middle of the
platform and the lift will rise up and take Leon to the surface, ending this
chapter.
/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------\
| [ ] Royal Insignia | On the pedestal at the very end of the tunnel |
