Synopsis

Mac Anu

At the Chaos Gate, Aura explains that the party needs to use a set of Area Words to use it. Kite simplifies that they need to combine three keywords to access an area, and BlackRose uses Hidden Forbidden Sanctum as the example.

Aura reveals the locations of three of her segments: Raging Haunted Mansion, God-Eating Fool's Carrier, and Transporting Merciful Goddess. Ichiro suggests splitting up to find the fragments, but Aura doesn't have enough power to find the last one. After everyone picks a fragment to find, they split into three groups to search for the missing segments and agree to meet back at the Chaos Gate once they have all of them.

The World, Delta Server: Raging Haunted Mansion

Chris, Jill, and Rikiya have been walking around for a while and find themselves in front of large mansion. They still don't know how they managed to get here from the Bermuda, but Rikiya seems to know this place, the Curien Mansion. He starts explaining about the UDS project (UnDead Soldiers) used to create zombies for military usage. The project was scrapped, but part of the tech was unleashed in a certain town; the town they are in.

Rikiya senses someone and sees a fragment of Aura. Jill thinks its a victim of the U.D.S. project, but Aura's fragment explains that the place they are in are created from their memories. Just as she was about to go into detail about that and the Feydooms, zombies jump out of the nearby fountain. Chris figures that they need to get to the girl if they want answers and decides to fight their way through the undead horde.

The first group warps into the area and spot the agents immediately. Just as they get reacquainted, Feydooms appear. They see Aura's segment and she suggests that Kite use his bracelet to transfer her data. However, he must do so quickly as she can't remain in the area as a fragment for long. They decide to hurry towards Aura before she disappears. More zombies show up, including one that Jill knows all too well: Nemesis-T Type aka, the "Pursuer". Frank explains that the Feydooms use their powers to resurrect hated memories from a person's mind, in this case, Jill's.

And now, more zombies show up including their leader Lord Raptor. It seems that he's planning to add Nemesis to his ranks. After some talk with Rikiya, Jill and Chris prepare for the assault at the House of the Dead.

After Kite reaches the Aura fragment, he uses his bracelet to store the fragment. Just as the .hackers head back, another zombie ambush occurs. The agents aren't too thrilled about it...

After Nemesis takes a beating, he retreats. After Raptor takes a thrashing from the agents, he rants about adding Nemesis to his army.

After clearing the courtyard of zombies, it was time to head back. Jill wonders if anything is inside the mansion, but Chris declines thinking there's nothing friendly in there.

Strategy

Since time is of the essence, getting Kite to Aura should be your top priority. Equipping him with the Roaming Charm will get him past enemies, and be sure to use Flynn's Marching Orders skill to get everyone moving. Have everyone deal with the enemies while Kite gets to Aura.

Trivia

• The mansion in the foreground is actually the Curien mansion from the original House of the Dead arcade, using its design from Zombie Revenge. Incidentally, in Zombie Revenge, the House of the Dead level features the same one. The main difference is the interior design.
• Chris and Jill are the last pair unit to be unlocked in Project X Zone.
• Jill remembers Nemesis because he chased her relentlessly throughout the events of Resident Evil 3: Nemesis.
