How to start a task

After the start 10th chapter go to the Main Hall, go up the stairs to the three-headed statue, turn into the right passage and enter a small room with a coffee table with flowers. To the right of him, on the cabinet with the gramophone, there will be a blue note with a request.

You will need to deal with a serious threat in the face of a creepy knight. It is noted that he kills enemies with one blow. As a reward for destroying it, you will receive eight spinels.

Where to find the creepy golden knight

You need to return to the Shrine, playing as Leon. After taking the note, go through the passage on the right and turn on the flashlight. Move forward along the dark corridor, crawl under the shelf and go through the door ahead. You will be taken to the Library. Go forward, bypassing the bookshelves, and go down the stairs.

Next, use the elevator to go down to the desired location. Note that at the bottom you will need to defeat two ordinary and one golden knight. The latter is a kind of mini-boss, therefore it has a large health bar and is capable of inflicting significant damage. Recommended prepare well for a fight with him, taking more first-aid kits, grenades and cartridges.

After descending, pick up a flashbang (or fragmentation) grenade, take a few steps forward and throw a projectile at the three knights in front. Two or three grenades should be enough to destroy ordinary mobs (gems drop from them). Now you can focus all your attention on the gold enemy.

Do not even try to shoot the enemy in an armored torso - just waste your ammunition. Shoot the enemy in the back of the head where the parasite is located. After a few shots, the helmet will fall off the monster, and tentacles will appear, making it easier to hit them. You can take a rifle or a pumped shotgun to deal with the enemy faster.

After dealing with the golden knight, pick up a yellow diamond from his corpse. Now return to the merchant for your reward.
