Q72822 ??? undefined

(Materials for [%dic:STR_DIC_E_Naki6_K]? Sounds interesting.)

(You might find clues for your case against [%dic:STR_DIC_E_Stella_Industry].)

(You should try opening it.)

“Let’s see....”

(You opened the [%dic:STR_DIC_OBJ_IDLDF8_Lab_FOBJ_MatBox] with the key you obtained from [%dic:STR_DIC_E_IDLDF8_Lab_Boss_01], but the chest is empty.)

(Perhaps one of the laboratory’s researchers moved it somewhere safe, away from the gang of addicted Daevas.)

(But... Why did Draug have the key to such an important chest?)

(There’s something suspicious about this--you should discuss it with [%dic:STR_DIC_N_LDF8_OP_Rhyle_E].)

(Close the chest.)

(You can’t open the chest because you don’t have the right key.)

(Leave the chest for now.)

Hello again, [%username].

Have you learned something new?

“Yes, listen to this....”

You found a key to the Main Material Chest on a slime monster? But the chest was empty?

Here’s a thought--maybe one of the researchers was fleeing with the ST-IX materials, but fell prey to a regular slime. If that slime absorbed whatever Stellin uses to make ST-IX, it could very easily have mutated into the monster you came across.

It’s all guesswork, but if true, this confirms our theory that they’re using something incredibly powerful. We just need to find out what it is. We’re getting close, though. I can feel it.

Defeat [%dic:STR_DIC_E_IDLDF8_Lab_Boss_01], obtain [%dic:STR_DIC_I_quest_62822a], and open the chest after finding it.

[%collectitem]

Speak with [%dic:STR_DIC_N_LDF8_OP_Rhyle_E] in Demaha.

Examine the contents of the Main Material Chest and tell Lyle about it.

You defeated Draug and obtained the key to the Main Material Chest.

You opened the Main Material Chest but it was already empty.

You thought it was suspicious that the key to an important chest was on Draug, so you told Lyle what happened.

Lyle guessed that the researcher running away with the contents of the chest had fallen prey to a slime that then absorbed them, mutating into Draug.
