ZOMicron

ZOMicron

You are fighting the ZOMicron.

You open the Goldbergium Door, finding an even more complex contraption than the one you used to get the key. A woman in a goldbergium-stained labcoat stands among the gears and springs and rows of dominos and alarm clocks.

You both awkwardly wait for the other to start their introductory monologue until she goes first. "I am Doctor Zomadeus, inventor of the ZOM process and now you will face the greatest threat yet!"

You glance around until she gestures at a tiny goldbergium crystal encapsulated in a slightly larger cybernetic exoskeleton. All told, it's about the size of a mouse.

She sits back to watch the fight as you approach... cautiously, because the only thing more embarrassing then looking scared of a mouse is looking confident then getting thrashed by one.
Your opponent attacks ...

• The ZOMicron knocks over a domino, which knocks over a bigger domino, which knocks over a... you get the idea. The biggest domino falls on your head.

Miss messages:

• The ZOMicron queues up a roar to its speakers, but you gesture over the Petting Zoo and remind it not to wake the animals.
• The ZOMicron knocks over a domino, which knocks over a bigger domino, which knocks over a... you get the idea. You shove a domino out of the way, disrupting the chain before they can fall on you.

Victory! You beat up your foe and win the combat!

You gain 300 experience.

The ZOMicron collapses, setting off a chain reaction in the massive contraption around it. As you dodge mousetraps and gears, farm animals and springs, Dr. Zomadeus slips out the back.

You follow the trail, but lose her at the edge of the Triassic Park and Bestiary.
