Meteoid/Underground

Choice adventure number: 490

Within the underground you can explore a (randomized) 5x5 map. In each cell you can attempt to move in 4 directions, fire weapons, or perhaps activate an item.

Entering with more than one teleport charge remaning:

I set the teleporter to a random set of coordinates, did a quick diagnostic check on my cybersuit's arm cannon, and smacked the button.

Upon rematerialization, I found myself in a strange, cavelike room.

Entering with only one teleport charge brings you to an area where you lose 5 energy points per move:

I was down to my last teleportation charge. I steeled my nerves, set the coordinates to the dead center of the underground complex, and took the plunge.

The room I found myself in was different from the others -- lined completely in metal, and hot! So hot my cybersuit's life support subsystems could barely maintain a survivable temperature. I resolved to finish this, one way or another.
