Mega Man X3/Toxic Seahorse

Underground Sewer
This stage's fist room begins with 2 Victoroids in your way and after them there is a hole in the ground you must go down. Following the route after this shaft will lead you to 2 Notor Bangers and a vertical shaft you must climb up. This section also introduces the sewer water running along the walls that have a small effect on your movement physics.

As you ascend this shaft, you will run across several Earth Commanders and Notor Bangers—behind one is a large health pickup). Both of these enemies are quickly dispatched by spinning blade (Crush Crawfish's weapon) if you have it. nearing the top of the shaft, a large health pickup will fall from above you pushed by the water, if you are on the right side of the wall you should be able to grab it in time.

Following the natural exit to the shaft you will come across a lone notor banger guarding the hall just before the Bit/Byte room. the following room will present a fork in the road, continue foreward and you will come to a dead end with a ride armor access platform (it is recommended that you summon the frog ride armor for the following segment if you have it). downward at the fork will lead you to an underwater section, greeted by a few mine tortoises, a bottomless pit, and several options presenting themselves to you.

Firstly if you have both the arm parts and the frost sheild (Bilzzard Buffalo's weapon) you will be able to get the kangaroo ride armor. to do this, charge frost sheild and ride the subsiquent ice block upward to the are where the ride armor chip is, optimal placement is somewhere on the right ramp leading out of the aformentioned bottomless pit.

next you are presented with another fork in the road, if you have the previously mentioned ride armor equiped you may take the top path where you can destroy the fans that would normaly push you back, allowing you to exit the ride armor safely and climb the wall. there is a fake-out ledge but if you continue climbing you will come across the leg chip upgrade, allowing you to dash twice in the air. following the bottom part of the fork will have you traversing a hallway littered with insta-kill spikes on the cealing, bottomless pits, and many more mine tortoises. this then leads to shitter door of the mid boss of this stage Hotareeca
