to it with the Spider Ball, and go back through the secret passage. Keep going
left until you drop down (use the Big Energy Ball if you need to heal), then
bomb through the rock again. Head left, then go all the way back to that big
lake of acid you hopped over earlier.

C. The Second Chozo City [HYDRO]
================================

1. Getting the Varia Suit [VARIA]
---------------------------------

When you reach the acid lake, you'll find that it's drained away. Go down the
tunnel revealed. Eventually you'll reach another deep pool of acid. You'll
see a morph ball tunnel heading left; go through it. A short walk later, and
the music will change to another rather creepy atmospheric ambience, like you
heard in the first Chozo city.

Climb up the shaft, then head left. You'll see several floating creatures
called Septoggs. Don't jump on them; they'll take you down into the sand, and
your only recourse will be to bomb your way out of it. You can't kill them, or
even hurt them, so don't try. Keep going left.

You'll find yourself in what looks like the Gawron nest room from earlier, only
this time it's empty...except for a single ALPHA METROID! Shoot it down!

METROIDS REMAINING: 33 (L-07)

Continue left, and you'll find yourself in another "outer city" cavern. Keep
going left and through the door, and you'll find yourself in another ruin.
You'll see a Save Point right in front of you; use it if you wish. Keep going
left; you'll enter a cavern with columns running down in the background. On
the far left you'll find an Autrack shooting plasma beams at you. Jump over it
and shoot it from behind (it can't turn around). Head left, and you'll find
yourself in a mirror image of the first save room in this area; save here.

Continue to head left. Eventually you'll see a gap in the floor; drop through
it. You'll land in water, which in this game has no effect on Samus. Shoot
any creatures in your way as you head right.

You'll be inside the ruins again. Jump the platforms to the right wall. Go
into Spider Ball mode, climb up the right wall, and grab the MISSILE POD (M:
100) there. Now drop down to the bottom of this chamber. Once you're on the
ground, go right; there'll be a secret passage that way, and you'll drop into
a passage. Morph out and head right again, but get your missiles ready--you're
going to face another ALPHA METROID!

METROIDS REMAINING: 32 (L-06)

Now go up the staircase on the right, and jump to the ledge on your left.
Morph into a ball, and slip through the opening. Unmorph when the ball stops,
and jump up and to the left as you make your way through the passage.
Eventually you'll run through a long tunnel; once you reach a point where you
can't run any farther, morph back into ball mode. Roll left through the narrow
tunnel, bombing any blocks in your way. What's all this extra effort for?
Why, a MISSILE POD (M: 110) of course!

Go back the way you came, back to the small staircase on the far right of the
room. This time, go into Spider Ball mode and climb the wall. You'll ascend
a narrow shaft, and eventually the tunnel will go left. You'll emerge into
another room with a staircase. Head up it, and blast away the missile door.

Ah, another Chozo Statue with an artif--wait, where's the orb-container? The
statue's not holding it! Bomb into the crawlspace underneath it, and Spider
Ball your way left. Eventually you'll creep through a hidden passage.

You've got to be kidding me. There are a lot of fake orb-containers here,
which you can remove by Bombing. One of the containers (the one between two
blocks) resists the bombing; this is the one we want. (If you play this game
on a GBC or GBA, the real container will be red, while the fake containers are
green.) Morph out when you can reach it, then shoot it. Drop onto it to get
your VARIA SUIT!

Varia Suit: A Primer

This item, once you acquire it, will constantly be in effect. Damage done to
Samus will be cut in half (rounding down). It will not protect her very much
from the acid, however, so don't try to shortcut her through it!

Now go all the way back until you hear the "outside" music; you're done here.


2. Getting the Wave Beam [WAVEBEAM]
-----------------------------------

Get out of the water you're in, then head right until you reach the doorway
leading back to the second Save Point. Duck inside to save if you want, then
jump up to the ledge on the wall. Spider Ball your way up, avoiding the
Senjoos as best you can. Climb the city walls; eventually you'll reach the
flat rooftop. Unmorph here and get rid of any enemies in your way. You'll see
a doorway blocked by a stone; bomb it and roll through.

Inside the ruin, unmorph and get your missiles ready. Head right until you
reach what almost looks like a mirror image of your normal Chozo temple, only
the statue's missing. In its place is...another ALPHA METROID!
