Dr. Aeon reveals the secret purpose behind the Architect...to prove that the Butterfly Effect is false, that the present cannot be changed by changing the past.


Recover the recorder
Small size map, level range 1-54. Contains Ambush, Boss, Collection, Patrol.

Briefing

Dr. Aeon
Dr. Aeon
The existence of these Lizardmen, as you call them, is a surprising and fascinating twist. This is the joy of research, you believe you are creating a minor deathray, and suddenly it mutates kittens into gigantic feline killers.

The most interesting part is that, of the thousand of alternate earths we have explored, NONE have reptiles as the dominant species. The common theory is that the inability to maintain body temperature is such an evolutionary disadvantage that they simply cannot compete. The answer of HOW these beings developed is stored in my recorder. We'll make scientific history!

But to do that, you must recover the device. They would have taken it to one of their scientists, who will be baffled by it--he would have to be a genius like myself to understand it. I have identified the recorder's energy signature. Go, retrieve the recorder, and deal with the scientist who collected it. Hurry, they might erase the data by accident. What a tragedy that would be!

Mission Acceptance

Dr. Aeon
Dr. Aeon
Hurry, don't let them damage the recorder's data. Six million years of evolutionary data. We'll be famous! Well, you'll be famous, I'll be even more famous.

In-Progress

Dr. Aeon
Dr. Aeon
Why are you still here? Go! Fight! Win! For Science!!!

Mission Objectives

There's just something weird about these intelligent lizardmen.

  • Find the recorder
  • Deal with the scientist

You have defeated a lizard Dr. Aeon. It will never get weirder than this.

Mission Clues

Recorder Disassembly Report
On a computer, you found a file setting forth the complete disassembly and reverse-engineering of the recorder. Not only has six million years worth of data moved elsewhere, they know about your earth, and refer to technology that can open portals to that world.

Oh, dear, that is disappointing. That data would given me top spot at the World Science Convention.

Now, now, don't worry about that portal project of theirs. You'd need to be a genius like myself to reverse-engineer the circuits in the recorder. He may have called himself Dr. Aeon, after finding it in the recorder's programming, but there's only one real Dr. Aeon.

Well, still, a successful experiment. As I theorized, the Butterfly Effect was true, and we proved it. Yes, that was my theory. Perhaps you misunderstood me, those without scientific training often fail to grasp the nuances of scientific discussion. Not your fault, do not worry.

It's been a great day for science. Together, we have pushed back the boundaries of the unknown. It's all the reward one could want, am I right?
