    Zorthrus

    In Genshin Impact Meteoric Lance is task of Fontaine's world and part of the quest line “Search in the Sea of ​​Algae”. During it, you will have to find the seal, find the way forward and solve the next orthant puzzle in order to obtain the element of Wishes. If you have any difficulties accepting and completing the mission, then study our guide.

    Walkthrough of the quest “Meteoric Lance” in Genshin Impact

    How to start a task

    You will need to complete the previous mission in the chain called "Mother of the Muses". Immediately after this, the next quest will appear in your journal with a marker indicating the location of the second seal. If this does not happen, then try logging out of your account, wait 20-30 minutes, and then re-login.

    How to find a seal

    Swim out of the flooded cave or simply teleport to another location, and then head to the western shore of the Ruins of Fort Charybdis. Here you will find an entrance to a cave - swim into it.

    Move deeper into the cave, activate the teleport along the way and go into the ruins, dealing with the mek. Approach the quest marker and you will find a wounded man on the ground. Help him and then continue your investigation.

    How to find the way forward

    During the dialogue, you will automatically find a new sign with a riddle. This time you won’t have to choose an answer, since Caterpillar will give it himself, saying that we are talking about “life.” We won't argue with him and move on.

    You'll need to unlock the grate on the left side, which involves solving a slightly confusing puzzle. However, before that, deal with all the enemies in the location so that they don’t bother you later.

    After dealing with the opponents, take the xenochrome octopus ability from the blue ball on the stairs. Then walk up to Eliphas's beam and use his skill on his right Elemental Reaction: Crystallize to rotate the turret so his laser starts shining directly at the pillar in front of him (see second screenshot below).

    Approach the first lifting column next to the beam and start lifting it (use the octopus skill on the crystal on the right) until the laser hits its lens on the right side so that the light branches out as shown in the picture below.

    Go to the second lifting column and raise it to such a level that the beam begins to shine into the sphere near the grate, as shown in the image below. As a result, you will be able to unlock a new passage.

    Note: Before using the lift, you can enter the purple mirror to be transported to another dimension with a Rip Hound and an awesome chest. Coming out the other side, you can solve another small pillar puzzle for a regular chest.

    After exploring the location, get on the lift and ride it down. Deal with the mek located here, and then hit the crystal so that it turns orange - the first grate will open and the second will close. Take an archer to your team, stand on the stairs and shoot at the Elemental Reaction: Crystallize. This will open up a path forward for you.

    Note: You can also simply hit the orange crystal and make a couple of dashes towards the ladder - you should have time to run under the closing grate.

    How to solve the riddle of orthanthus

    Move further down and you will find the next main device, to which you need to direct two streams of energy from the side mechanisms. Next we will indicate their location.

    The first mechanism with energy flow

    First, grab the octopus ability from the blue orb on the left side of the main device. Then approach the lifting columns from the side and lower them (use the octopus power on the crystals) so that Eliphas's beams can charge the balls and open the grate, as shown in the picture below. Lower the left pillar first, then the right one.

    Go through the opened passage, deal with the mek and go down on the lift. Take out the group of Hydro Slimes, take the Octopus skill and approach the control valve on the other side. Start influencing one of his crystals with the acquired ability to begin turning the receiving nodes. Rotate them as shown in the image below (the arrows should turn blue).

    Next, approach the device and release the energy. Follow the stream to the second mechanism ahead. Wait until it is filled with energy, and then click on the "Rise" button. Once on the second level, release the energy by directing the flow straight to the main apparatus.

    Second mechanism with energy flow

    Open the door and start following the fairy down. Approaching the spirit house, you will unlock a Hurdle leading to the water. Dive, open the rich chest and take the ability from the xenochrome razorback swimming near the device. Deal with the meks so that they don't get in the way under your feet.

    Then swim to a tunnel overgrown with algae. Aim at the green spheres and release Fontmer's blade at them to hit all three balls at once. This is the only way you can destroy the barrier.

    Next, take the skill from the xenochrome octopus swimming nearby and set about setting up the receiving nodes. First turn the top control valve so the nodes light up blue (second screenshot below). Then start turning the bottom valve until the nodes turn blue (third screenshot below).

    Now you can release the stream and follow it to the blue barrier. Wait until the device charges, and then go up two floors With You it. Release the energy from it and deal with the group of robots.

    Open the luxurious chest, climb onto the mechanism and check it. Talk to Caterpillar and this will complete the quest. You will have access to the next quest in the chain called “Cupid's Love.”
