The Puzzle to the Rooftop Temple.

I cleared a path through a corrupted demon tree and gathered spirits from the empty streets. To reach a shrine high above, I used a flying creature as a grapple point to launch Akito onto a rooftop. After defeating a group of aggressive ghosts, I finally reached the temple gate.

On my way to the shrine, I hit another roadblock in the form of a massive demon tree. Its corrupted branches were blocking the entire path, so I had to stop and scan the area to find its core. Once I located the glowing heart hidden within the corruption, I destroyed it, causing the entire tree to dissolve and clearing the way forward.

As I continued through the quiet streets, I came across more spirits, this time a group of boys and men trapped in the spirit realm. I didn't hesitate to use my Katashiro to absorb them. Every soul I save feels like a small victory against the chaos taking over the city.

While looking up, I noticed a temple gate at the top of a tall building. It looked completely out of reach. I also saw something strange flying high above the rooftops, circling the area, and KK said that mysterious creature was going to be the key to getting up there.

Before attempting the climb, I found a phone booth nearby. These booths are essential for sending the spirits I have gathered to safety. I stepped inside and went through the process of releasing the spirits I had absorbed earlier, making sure they were far away from the dangers of the street.

I spent quite a bit of time circling the block, trying to figure out a way to reach that rooftop. I knew I needed to cleanse the temple area, but the stairs and elevators were all useless. It was a bit of a puzzle trying to understand how the verticality of this city works.

At last, I figured out the trick. I used a special ability to grapple onto that flying creature I had spotted earlier. It pulled me high into the air, allowing me to leap onto the building's ledge. It is a wild way to travel, but it is the only way to reach these shrines.

The moment my feet hit the roof, I was ambushed by a special kind of ghost guarding the gate. They were fast and aggressive, but I had to eliminate them to get close enough to the temple gate. Then I took them down.

We'll continue in another post.
