- Duel
- Save Arnaud
- Kill the Count
- Reach Hugo
- On the Cart
Regroup with Lucas and Sophia
After giving the news that both Lucas and Sophia survived, Amicia takes to her feet and the two make their way back to the shipwreck to continue the mission to recover Hugo.
As the two make their way to the now wrecked Rascasse, the Count shows up after following the boat to make sure that no one will come after him for Hugo. Arnaud takes up arms to force the Count to tell them the location of where Hugo is kept.
Save Arnaud
A fight ensues as Arnaud takes on the Count head on. The other soldiers will then come after you as Amicia, so be prepared with your arsenal.
The soldiers will come in waves just like before, with the tougher ones appearing as the fight goes on. The things to take note during this fight are the ranged soldiers that appear up on the cliff which should be prioritized, and the multiple armored soldiers that appear towards the end. There are also a bunch of materials scattered around the fight area, including bolts.
After the wave where the first armored soldier appears, a cutscene will show an explosion in the distance within the city of Marseille, giving out the location of Hugo and signaling that the Macula is getting to him. Clouds of the Nebula cover the entire sky, making it harder to see the surroundings.
The fight will continue with the tougher soldiers joining in. Continue focusing on the ranged spearmen and bombardiers that appear, then work on disarming the shields and removing the armors of the armored soldiers before finishing them.
Eventually, a cutscene will show Arnaud getting stabbed by the Count, but Arnaud uses this as an opportunity to remove the Count’s helmet, leaving his opponent’s head exposed for Amicia.
Kill the Count
At this point, use your slingshot to deal a headshot towards the Count to finally kill him.
As the fight ends, Amicia tries to help out Arnaud, but he passes away after saying his final words. Amicia then unties Lucas and Sophia and they make their way to the walled city of Marseille.
Reach Hugo
The three make their way to Marseille, passing through panicking villagers that have been shook by the explosion.
The carriage comes to a stop at the boarded gates of the city, so Amicia tries to use the flame turret on their carriage to find another way through. Aim the turret at the wooden fence on the right to proceed.
As the city walls begin to throb because of the rats, a part of it breaks, releasing a mountain of rats that immediately chase the carriage. Use the turret again and shoot flames towards the advancing rats to slow them down. Eventually, they will stop following, but only to reappear again by busting another side of the wall, causing debris to collapse on the carriage.
The chapter ends showing the three surviving the crash, and they decide to take the journey to the city on foot.
