Talk to Billy[]

Icon Commission Commission Description

Billy's alone at the construction site. Let's ask him what he's doing here.
(Idle)
Billy: The Manager knocked that big guy flat with just one punch?!
Grace: Something feels wrong about saying that...
(Talk to Billy)
Billy: Yo, Manager! I heard you went toe-to-toe with the golden Mech!
Icon Dialogue Talk Overheard something at the noodle shop again?
Icon Dialogue Talk Cunning Hares sure has their ear to the ground.
Billy: Nicole told me not to come here, saying if I got hurt in the explosion, she wouldn't have the cash to replace my cybernetics.
Billy: But that golden Mech appeared in the Starlight Knight spin-off! Could that episode have also been inspired by the sci-fi comic classic?
Billy: If I can find the connection between the two, I can post another featured thread on the Starlight Knight fan forum!
Icon Dialogue Talk (Could Hurcules have something to do with the comic?)
Icon Dialogue Talk (Could the Mech have something to do with the comic?)
Grace: Proxy, Eous has been ready and waiting!
Icon Dialogue Talk Are you blaming me?
Icon Dialogue Talk Have you been waiting long, Grace?
Grace: Not at all! Actually, I've got some good news!
Icon Dialogue Talk Did you crack the defense program?
Icon Dialogue Talk Hurcules surrendered?
Grace: Proxy... one of the key points of mechanical research is to stay grounded.
Grace: That kid's color... almost like it has mutated. The whole body turned blue.
Icon Dialogue Talk It really is the Golden Mecha.
Icon Dialogue Talk It's definitely Hurcules' Mech 01.
Grace: In that case, the little rascal's definitely gonna come back to mess with us in the next few days.
Grace: Let's get ready and keep pushing hard with our training today.
Icon Dialogue Event Let's do it now!

Icon Dialogue Talk Still need time to prepare...

Complete the remaining combat training for this round[]

Icon Commission Commission Description

When you're ready, enter the external cockpit to start this round of Mech combat training.
(After defeating Mecha Golden Bangboo in Battle #4 of The Golden Mecha Returns)

Bangboo and Humans[]

Special Event
Bangboo and Humans

Story Description: After being defeated again, Hurcules shows his vulnerable side in front of Grace and (‍WiseWise / BelleBelle‍). Grace decides to put aside their differences to tend to Hurcules's wounds, and their relationship seems to improve a little...


The Golden Mecha slams the backup unit hard into a wall. Hurcules struggles to crawl out of the cockpit.
Hurcules: Ehn-ehn! Ehn-ehn-na, ehn-na... (Damn it! They've already restored unit 01 to phase two. How is this human doing this...?)
Hurcules: ...Ehn-na? Ehn-ehn-na!? (...Wait what? Who's clinging to my mech!?)
Billy: Ohhh man! It really is the Golden Mecha I've seen on TV!
Hurcules: En-nah! En-neh, en nah! (It's Golden Mecha's backup unit! You stupid metal man! Get off my mech now!)
Billy: Are you the owner?!
Billy: Then you must know that the mech in Starlight Knight Season 5, Episode 372, at the 15-minute mark, was totally based on this mech! So tell me, when you designed it, were you inspired by sci-fi comics?
Icon Dialogue Talk As expected of the biggest action movie fan. Billy...
(ProtagonistProtagonist): As expected of the biggest action movie fan. Billy... You've changed the vibes completely!
Hurcules: Ehn-ehn-na? Ehn-na, na-ehn... (This metal guy is actually a fan of mine? Was I too harsh to him? And what is this Starlight Knight...?)
Hurcules: Ehn-ehn-na? Ehn-na-ehn-na— (Ahem... my Golden Mecha is an unstoppable hero on TV, right? Just like me, the destroyer of humanity, the keeper of the universe's ultimate secret, the great Golden Mecha Mechboo, Herc—)
Billy: Huh? Oh, nah. It showed up for, like, 15 seconds before Starlight Knight one-punched it off the screen.
Billy: But for a villain mech, it held up much better than most. It even made Starlight Knight pull out that move. You know the one, right? So cool!
Hurcules: Ehn-na! Ehn-na! (I'm about to use that move on you! Now get off my mech!)
Grace: Still talking big huh, Little Guy? But you lost again~
Hurcules: Ehn-na! Ehn-na! (Don't be so smug! I just... let my guard down, that's all!)
Hurcules: Ehn-na-na, ehn-ehn-na! (This miserable place has no decent parts to scavenge! And you sly humans! I paid for a group of people to gather intel, but the second they got their money, they just disappeared!)
Icon Dialogue Talk You're surprisingly gullible.
(ProtagonistProtagonist): Huh... you're surprisingly gullible.
Icon Dialogue Talk The kind of Bangboo that actually pays for fair trade...
(ProtagonistProtagonist): I didn't know you're the kind of Bangboo that actually pays people for their time. I kinda thought you'd just kidnap humans and force them to work for you.
Hurcules: Ehn-na-na! (That would make me no different from you humans!)
Icon Dialogue Talk Bangboo are humans' friends.
(ProtagonistProtagonist): You've got it all wrong. Bangboo have always been humans' friends in New Eridu, including Eous, who's piloting unit 01.
Hurcules: Ehn-na! Ehn-na, na-ehn... (Hah! You expect me to believe that? I've seen Bangboo get scrapped and tossed into the Hollow like garbage with my own eyes...)
Hurcules: Ehn-na. Ehn-ehn! Ehn-na... (Forget it, I'm done with you lot. You want to break through 01's phase two? Ha! Keep dreaming! I'll be back next time to claim my victory... ugh...)
Hurcules: Ehn-na! Ehn-na-na? (...Ow, my right leg hurts! What's happening, I can't move it properly... Was it from that hit earlier?)
Grace: External high-voltage has scrambled your circuits. If it's not taken care of immediately, the damage will spread through your whole body.
Hurcules: Ehn-ehn? Ehn-na. (Oh, please, "taken care of"? Of course, you humans love taking care of Bangboo—when they're no longer useful, you just get rid of them.)
Grace: Um, you're being delusional again, Little Guy... Let me help you!
Hurcules: Ehn-na! Na-ehn! (Hey! Hey! Y-You're too close! Stay back, witch! Stay back!)
Hurcules freezes in place, his arms twitching weakly as if he's trying to push Grace away.
But Grace simply kneels down, her expression focused yet gentle, completely absorbed in what she's passionate about...
Hurcules remains tense, but his guard begins to drop slowly.
Grace: Huh, I thought a feisty little guy like you wouldn't make a sound during surgery.
Hurcules: Ehn-na? (Wh-What have you done?)
Grace: Relax, I just cleaned up your circuits a little.
Hurcules: Ehn-na? Na-ehn! (You planted some kind of control chip in me, didn't you! I knew it! You humans—)
Grace: Bangboo have always been friends with humans, just like the Proxy said.
Hurcules: Ehn-na-na! (Hmph... this doesn't change anything! I won't be bribed, and I definitely won't give up on my plan to destroy humanity!)
Icon Dialogue Talk Looking forward to your next visit.
(ProtagonistProtagonist): Looking forward to your next visit! It'll help us improve our training!
Hurcules: Ehn-na! (I will be back! Mark my words!)
Hurcules keeps its head down, running straight toward the Golden Mecha. Unlike his usual self, he is quiet, and doesn't even look back, as if he's avoiding something...
A few minutes later, the massive silhouette of the backup unit rises into the sky, hovering over you for a moment before vanishing into the distance.
Icon Dialogue Talk Is something on your mind, Grace?
(ProtagonistProtagonist): Is something on your mind, Grace?
Grace: That little guy, Hurcules... I get the feeling that he just needs a little more care.
Grace: Proxy, let's wrap up today's training. You and Eous worked hard.
