With the Missile Launcher equipped, more areas are open to you. Your next objective is to recover the Morph Ball.

You do not have the necessary equipment to proceed past this room, so head to the Ruined Gallery.

Head to the Missile Lock Door near where you were attacked by a swarm of Beetles. Blast it open then continue on to the Ruined Shrine Access.

Ruined Shrine Access
Two groups of Scarabs are in this room, destroy them before attempting to progress further.

Ruined Shrine
Scan: Plated Beetle You'll see the Morph Ball on the far side of this room, however before you can acquired it, a wall will obstruct your path and you'll be attacked by a swarm of Beetles. If there are several Beetles grouped together, uses Missiles (keep at least three in reserve) to destroy them, otherwise stick to the Power Beam. After you slay the swarm, you'll be attacked by a Plated Beetle.

Boss battle: Plated Beetle
This creature behaves like a normal Beetle, however it is invulnerable to frontal attack. It'll make a screech just before it rams you, so dodge it then blast its vulnerable abdomen with Missiles. The creature will succumb to the damage after two or three hits with Missiles, depending on the set difficulty of the game.
