Exzisus/Stage 2

Once Exzisus has fully rematerialized (after he'd been flying diagonally downwards at a high speed), he will slow down and start flying forwards again as the game's main theme again starts to be heard from the Yamaha YM-2151, and six Type 11 enemies will come flying into view from the right side of the screen, while firing projectiles at him; once you have fired a shot at each of these to kill them, you shall receive a 1000-point bonus, and a Type 2 enemy will come flying into view, from the right side of the screen. Once you have fired a shot at this one, to kill it, it will leave an "F" powerup behind - and once you have collected it, six more Type 11 enemies will come flying into view from the right side of the screen, while firing projectiles at you. Once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them, you will receive another 1000-point bonus and a Type 5 enemy will come walking into view from the right side of the screen; once you have dropped a missile upon it to kill it, six more Type 11 enemies will come flying into view from the right side of the screen, while firing projectiles at you. Once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them, you will receive a third 1000-point bonus and another Type 2 enemy will come flying into view from the right side of the screen - and once you have fired a shot at it to kill it, it shall leave an "L" powerup behind.

Once you have fired a shot at this to kill it, five more Type 11 enemies will come flying into view from the right side of the screen, while firing projectiles at you - and once you've fired a shot at each of these to kill them you will receive a sixth 1000-point bonus and come to ten Type 12 enemies which are firing projectiles up at you from their positions on the ground. Once you have dropped a missile on each of them to kill them you will receive a seventh 1000-point bonus, and eight Type 13 enemies will come flying into view from the left and right sides of the screen, while firing projectiles at you; once you've fired a shot at each of these to kill them, you will receive two more 1000-point bonuses, and a third Type 2 enemy will come flying into view from the right side of the screen. Once you have fired a shot at it to kill it, it will leave an inverted "D" powerup behind - and once you have collected it, it will destroy four more Type 13 enemies, that are flying into view from the left side of the screen and firing projectiles at you.

Once you have collected it, five more Type 11 enemies will come flying towards you from the right side of the screen, while firing projectiles at you - and once you have fired a shot at each of them, to kill them, you'll receive a fifteenth 1000-point bonus, and a fifth Type 2 enemy will come flying into view from the right side of the screen. Once you have fired a shot at it to kill it, it will leave a "D" powerup behind; once you have collected it, two Type 3 enemies will come flying into view from the left side of the screen while splitting into two (and three) and firing projectiles at you; once you have fired off one shot at each of them to kill them you will receive a sixteenth 1000-point bonus and a sixth Type 2 enemy will come flying into view from the right side of the screen. Once you have fired a shot at it to kill it it will leave an "A" powerup behind - and once you have collected it, Exzisus will transform back into a Darius-like turbo jet if he was unfortunate enough to get hit. Two more Type 3 enemies will now fly into view from the right side of the screen, while splitting into two and three and firing projectiles at you; once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them, you shall receive a seventeenth 1000-point bonus and the text of "ICE POLE. ELIMINATE IT BY SHOOTING AT THE BASE." will appear upon the screen. You will now come to an Ice Pole (which is comprised of fourteen segments) - and as you are firing out shots at these to blow them away (for 100 extra points apiece), an infinite amount of replacement ones shall fall down into view from the top of the screen. Once you have bypassed it, a seventh Type 2 enemy will come flying into view, from the right side of the screen; once you have fired a shot at it to kill it, it will leave an "O" powerup behind.

The game's "boss" theme will now start to be heard from the Yamaha YM-2151 for second time as the text "MECHANICAL YETI. SHOOT THE RED PARTS ON THE EYES AND BELLY" appears on the screen; that Mechanical Yeti shall then walk into view from the right side of the screen while spitting orange projectiles at you from his mouth and firing purple lasers at you from his belly. Once you've fired enough shots at his head to destroy it you'll have to aim for his belly; once you've fired enough shots at that belly to destroy it his body shall explode and fall down off the bottom of the screen, but his smoking head shall fly off it and start flying around the screen while spitting more orange projectiles at you from its mouth. Once you fire enough shots at the head to (truly) destroy it, it will explode and fall down off the bottom of the screen - and you will then receive another 10000-point bonus, as Exzisus dematerializes again and starts flying diagonally upwards at a high speed for the second time (again, if he was unfortunate enough to take another hit after collecting the second "A" powerup and get returned to his regular humanoid form and his robots returned to their regular bird- and dog-like forms with him his surfboard will fly into view from the left side of the screen and he will get onto it) as he proceeds to the third stage. You are now at the game's "halfway point" because two is half of four.
