Synopsis

After they defeat the deathbats, the Earth Corps go deeper underground and find the city of the Granites under attack by D'Compose and Tendril. While Granok (leader of the Granites) and his men wage war against the monsters, Tendril's offshoots free the inhumanoid leader Metlar ( a huge goblin-like monster with a scaly metal chest) who has been held captive by the magnetic beings Magnacore (Crygen and Pyrus). Metlar and the other Inhumanoids attack the Earth Corps just as Blackthorne Shore shows up in armor and captures Metlar. D'Compose then grabs Sandra and turns her into an undead creature.
