Dialogue

(Immediately after entering It All Started With a Man and a Dog)

Peppy: Woof woof!

Why'd you yell for me?

The puppy nudges your hand with its fluffed head. You instinctively press the beacon button on its back.

Peppy: (There's more than one Joy Filtration Set lost. As for the other set's whereabouts... I've found a clue.)

Peppy: (Peppy and (Trailblazer) are the world's best detective duo! You'll help Peppy, right?)

The puppy's sloppy tongue licks your hand, but seeing that you are unmoved, bites down on your glove and refuses to let go.

Fine, I'll play along.

Peppy flashes a splendid smile at you.

Of course, we're the world's best!

Peppy smiles at you, its tail wagging more profusely than before with happiness.

Peppy: (Let's go!)

Talk to and follow Peppy

Mission Description

Peppy has found clues about the lost Curio. You decide to follow it and continue your search.

Storage Zone

(Approach enemy and creation): Peppy: (Help!); Lend a hand
(Begin battle against Voidranger: Eliminator ×2, Voidranger: Reaver ×1, Antibaryon ×1)

(After battle)

Ruan Mei's Creation: Thank you for saving me!

What was taken should be returned now.

Ruan Mei's Creation: You mean, that strange can?

Hand over the Curio you stole as compensation.

Ruan Mei's Creation: What is a Curio?

Ruan Mei's Creation: Oh, you guys are talking about that dusty gray can of mine?

Ruan Mei's Creation: I've seen it before, but I didn't steal it. I don't even have the right to touch it.

What do you mean?

If it wasn't you, then who stole it?

Ruan Mei's Creation: It was the butler.

Who's the butler?

Ruan Mei's Creation: I saw it playing with that "can." It was fiercely protective with it too, and it wouldn't let me even glance at it.

Ruan Mei's Creation: That guy is a big fat liar. It said it was Ruan Mei's assistant, and that Ruan Mei dispatched it here to manage everyone.

Ruan Mei's Creation: My buddies and I were banished here because we doubted it... Such a shame that everyone else believed its lies.

Peppy: (We have to find the butler and retrieve the Curio...)

Ruan Mei's Creation: You're looking for it? That's gonna be hard, I'm afraid. It controls access to and from the room, and it won't let you in.

What do you know about the butler?

Ruan Mei's Creation: That's all I know. But, my buddies have also interacted with it.

Ruan Mei's Creation: It's a pity we all got scattered, or... You could go look for them — they might know something.

Search for the lost Curio and gather information about the butler

Mission Description

The lost Curio is currently held by a creation known as "butler." Who is this butler? And where can they be found? Despite lacking any information, you might uncover new leads by locating the lost Curio...

Storage Zone

(Investigate door): (Trailblazer): Feeling deja vu...; Peppy: The access control system is completely done for, woof!); Activate sync mode.

(Talk to the creation): Ruan Mei's Perplexed Creation: ...Hmm?; What do you know about the butler?; Ruan Mei's Perplexed Creation: The butler's always tooting its own horn, saying that it keeps in touch with Ruan Mei via the terminal.; Ruan Mei's Perplexed Creation: It also said that is was a unique creation from Madam Ruan Mei's, unlike us, and that it's a higher lifeform without biological needs, so it doesn't need food.; Ruan Mei's Perplexed Creation: That's all I recall.; Peppy: (Got it! One more clue!); Peppy: (Let's go take a look somewhere else.)

(Investigate door): (Trailblazer): Feeling deja vu...; Peppy: (Super Detective Peppy has arrived!); Activate sync mode.

Peppy: (Danger up ahead. Avoid at all costs. Don't get spotted by them!)

(Interact with any origami crane): Peppy: Woof woof... Woof? Woof woof woof!

(Get spotted by a monster): (We've been made! Run!); Peppy: (Good thing I've got a jet booster equipped. I bet these monsters didn't think I could fly!); Peppy: (This is the nearest landing point. (Trailblazer), you must be super careful later. Don't get caught by them again.)

(Find Ruan Mei's creation that is asking for help, optional): Peppy: (There's a strange air about here... (Trailblazer), come take a look?)

(Talk to creation): Peppy: (Were you the one calling out just now?); Ruan Mei's Lonely Creation: Anyone there? I'm so cold... So lonely...; What do you know about the butler?; It gazes at you profoundly and mutters to itself for a moment.; Ruan Mei's Lonely Creation: This fellow has many believers, so you'll have to expose its lies.; Ruan Mei's Lonely Creation: It'd be better to investigate by its side — we may have some luck.

(Talk to the creation inside the maze): Ruan Mei's Restless Creation: I know you... You shouldn't get too close.; What do you know about the butler?; Ruan Mei's Restless Creation: Everyone and I... were driven out by it. It wouldn't let us return.; Ruan Mei's Restless Creation: It said something about monsters destroying the door's lock and causing it to get stuck.; Ruan Mei's Restless Creation: I'm not too sure about the rest.; Peppy: (Got it! One more clue!)
(If Ruan Mei's Lonely Creation not encountered yet): Ruan Mei's Restless Creation: By the way, I have a friend who knows some stuff behind-the-scenes, but it's a lone wolf and doesn't mingle with us often, so I don't know where it is.; Ruan Mei's Restless Creation: If you have a chance, go look for it. If it's in a good mood, it might exchange a word or two.; Peppy: (There are other creations hidden in this zone? {NICKNAME}, what shall we do?); Nah, we need to report back.; Got it, I'll keep looking.; Ruan Mei's Restless Creation: Alright, see you around.

(Talk to Ruan Mei's Lonely Creation): Peppy: (Were you the one calling out just now?); Ruan Mei's Lonely Creation: Anyone there? I'm so cold... So lonely...; Do you know about the butler?; It gazes at you profoundly and mutters to itself for a moment.; Ruan Mei's Lonely Creation: This fellow has many believers, so you'll have to expose its lies.; Ruan Mei's Lonely Creation: It'd be better to investigate by its side — we may have some luck.

(Talk to Ruan Mei's Restless Creation again after helping Ruan Mei's Lonely Creation): Ruan Mei's Restless Creation: By the way, I have a friend who knows some stuff behind-the-scenes, but it's a lone wolf and doesn't mingle with us often, so I don't know where it is.; Ruan Mei's Restless Creation: If you have a chance, go look for it. If it's in a good mood, it might exchange a word or two.; We've seen it before.; Ruan Mei's Restless Creation: Alright, see you around.

Peppy: (Trailblazer), regarding the butler situation, what do you think about all this?)

I have no idea

Peppy: (...Ah, should we return and ask Miss Asta, woof?)

Peppy: (Sniff sniff...)

Peppy: (That guy can't be in this zone. I have to go back and find out where he is.)

Then let's go!

Peppy: (Let's wait until I report to Miss Asta. Also, the locking and repairing of the zone will take some time.)

Peppy: (It's all thanks to you today, (Trailblazer). You are Peppy's most reliable partner!)

Peppy: (I will desynchronize now! You can go back and rest well! I will holler if I have any news!)

Peppy desynchronized.

Peppy: Woof woof!
