Overview

"Nemesis" (ラスト・エスケープ, Rasuto Esucēpu^?) or "Last Escape" in Japanese, is the thirty-sixth chapter and forty-first overall chapter in Project X Zone. This marks the final encounter with Vajra and the Aragami, Skeith and The World monsters, and Nemesis. Nightbreakers first appear here.

Synopsis

Area: Tower of Tarqaron, Interior

One of the groups find themselves inside a strange room in the tower and hope the others made it as well. They see a few monsters scattered around as well as several capsules. Just then, Skeith and monsters from The World suddenly appear followed by a pack of Aragami led by a Vajra. Not only that but several Gnosis show up as well. After studying the capsule, Tron thinks they are embryonic capsules and orders one of the Servbots to destroy one of them and like she predicted a monster pops out! It looks like someone or something is breeding monsters here and can't let this stand. So they head out to destroy the capsules along with the other monsters.

After defeating Skeith, he explodes. Kite wonders how he's multiplying in the real world, but Pai suggests doing something or else things may get worse. After the Vajra falls, Soma wonders if they are recreating the Aragami somehow. Alisa suggests reporting this to Fenrir, but Soma thinks Sakaki would try and replicate them so he suggests keeping quiet about this.

As they make their way to the center, B.O.W.s appear along with 2 Nemesis!  Just then, the central capsule breaks and a third one jumps out. Rikiya thinks this is the original Nemesis, and the others think that he's the one who used the machines for cloning. Chris and Jill decide to settle things with Nemesis for good and make their way to the center.

Eventually, all 3 Nemesis are dead, this time for good. Afterwards, Tron and KOS-MOS work on blocking the device so they can't grow any more monsters. Frank was surprised Nemesis could do that, but Jill says it's impossible for him even though he's more intelligent than most B.O.W.s. Someone was helping him, and they do have a few suspects in mind like Oros Phlox and the Demon Lords. Juri then leads them out another path and hopefully to the others...

Strategy

Some capsules contain monsters and when they pop out, the unit that released them will end their turn right there so keep them healed just in case.

Trivia

• The Japanese chapter name, Last Escape, is the subtitle for Resident Evil 3's Japanese name.
• This is the only chapter in the game that has three of the same boss appear at once.
  • Chapter 29 did this with Skeith but Skeith Zero is a completely separate enemy.
• This is the only chapter that directly refers to a boss, being Nemesis. The previous chapter did with Jedah, but instead indirectly referring him to the "Dark Savior". Chapter 38 also does with Seth, referred to as the "Lord of Puppets".
• The blades that Skeith drops belonged to Sora, a PK (Player Killer) who was once allied with Morgana during the events of the .hack// prologue series Sign. After betraying her and helping Tsukasa and a younger Aura escape, he was Data Drained by Skeith Zero and his mind was trapped in his wand. In Outbreak, Kite finds a set of keywords where a player claims to have seen a red wand similar to Skeith's. After reaching the bottom of Λ Stalking Betrayed Nothingness, he finds the wand and Sora emerges from the disappearing wand. After giving his thanks, he hands Kite his blades.
• The Sakaki that Soma mentions is Dr. Paylor Sakaki, an Aragami researcher who helped in the development in the God Arcs as well as the head of the Aragami Technology Development dept. of Fenrir. While he had a hand in the Ark Project, he knew the director would willingly cause a Devouring Apocalypse so he led the director on a wild goose chase while hiding the true Singularity from him.
