Mysterious Invaders

Mysterious Invaders is the fifteenth chapter in Kid Icarus: Uprising, where Pit fights off new and mysterious foes. It takes place on a huge continent-like ship, home to the mysterious Aurum. Pit has to defeat these new enemies and protect Angel Land.

Aerial Mission

This mission starts off as Pit slowly jumps out of the door because he was woken up too early. Palutena informs Pit of the recent invasion of the mysterious enemies, and tells him that he needs to protect everyone from these new foes. Meanwhile, Viridi and Hades had been fighting, and if the enemies never invaded, they still would be. Hades asks Palutena if she knows anything about the enemies, but all she knows is that they aren't from this world. Knowing how dangerous this new threat is, both the Underworld army and Forces of Nature begin to fight the invaders. After fighting off the invasion for a while, a mysterious god, Pyrrhon, comes and helps Pit fight the enemies. Pyrrhon apparently knows who these creatures are, and he says they are known as the Aurum, an alien race that invades wherever and whenever there is massive destruction. Everyone looks at Hades and Viridi, since they were recently locked in battle. Viridi stands up for herself and says that everyone is a victim, and Palutena agrees, saying that they all are on the same side. Pit infiltrates the huge colony so that the Aurum won't eat the world.

Ground Mission

Pit lands on the Aurum base. Fighting enemies along the way, Pit makes his way inside the main tower. Inside, Pit finds a Mimicutie and a moving Hot Spring. Palutena tells Pit that he can get to the Hot Spring if he goes up a floor. Viridi isn't sure if it's a Hot Spring or another type of puddle. Outside, Pit finds an Exo Tank, which everyone is confused about. In the next room, there is a jump and another Exo Tank. If Pit tries to jump the gap, Viridi tries to psych him out by yelling, "You're gonna fall! You're gonna fall!". After using the Exo Tank to go down a spiraling path, he will find another Mimicutie. Pit then goes up an elevator to a place with a grind rail. Palutena says that when she was setting up the grind rail, it got distorted and turned out weird. After Pit has ridden all the grind rails and gone down the elevator, he gets to a place where he can get down into the tower. Pit then goes down the elevator to the boss, the Aurum Core. 

Boss Battle

The Aurum Core doesn't attack itself, but it has electric floors and laser drones to hurt Pit. the Core also has a shield around it that has some gaps that Pit can attack. 

After the Aurum Core is defeated, Pyrrhon saves Pit from the explosion. Pit is extracted, and Pyrrhon senses danger. Pyrrhon turns around and he sees the Aurum Fleet.

Trivia

• Though Palutena doesn't know much about the enemies, she still knows their names.
