Cat Patrol in ZZZ quest walkthrough
How to start
The quest becomes available after completing the first part of the story, “Mouse-Cat”, and reaching Internet level 27. To start the quest, use the video archive.
Look for Nekomata
Exit the video store and run to the right, then turn in the same direction again. Nekomata will be standing near the Banbu statue. Listen to a conversation between two security officers.
Keep Searching
Go back towards the video rental store and stop at Howl's Newsstand – Nekomata is standing behind it. Eavesdrop on the conversation of the plainclothes security officers and find out what kind of relationship the different departments of the organization have.
Look for the best place to place the bait
Immediately after the conversation, accept the order, return to the video rental store and use the HDD system to complete the task.
You should take characters of physical and fire damage types from level 28 to your team. The enemies in the cavern do not have any resistance, so there are no attribute restrictions as such. When you activate the trial mode, Nekomata will join your party.
From the first moment you enter the cavern, everything will not go according to plan, and Nekomata will have to pretend to be Ollie and cooperate with the officers who have arrived.
Collect the sherlings on the first field and go to the left teleport.
Bait Place 1
Collect the shearlings and supplies and head to the top cage, avoiding the enemies chasing you. You won't be able to set the bait – you'll run into the Ethereals. Defeat 3 groups of enemies.
In the opened part of the field, collect observation data and supplies and restore HP. Go to the teleport in the upper right cell.
Bait Location 2
Now go to the teleporter in the right cell.
On the new field, rows of cells disappear as you go down. To collect supplies, stand on the top red cell, then replenish HP in the green cell, then go left and down again.
Once you reach the new field, collect the denny and restore your HP. Then examine the “Carrot” data. There you will see 4 arrows pointing in different directions: down, right, up, down.
