Goumang is the second boss inNine Sols, and players will fight her, and two Jiangshi soldiers, in the Agrarian Hall. After dispatching Goumang, and collecting her Sol Seal, fans must navigate to the Factory (Great Hall), though they may be confused about how to reach that location. This guide is here to alleviate that confusion, and it details exactly where players should go after beating Goumang inNine Sols.
Players can obtain Goumang’s Sol Seal by interacting with the machine to the left of her arena.
Nine Sols: Where to Go After Goumang
Return to Four Seasons Pavilion
After collecting the Seal of Goumang, players should focus on returning to theFour Seasons Pavilion. While there are many ways in which fans can reach that hub area, the fastest is to visit theRoot Nodeto the right of Goumang’s arena and useNine Sols' fast travelfeature to instantly teleport to the Pavilion.
This return trip to the Four Seasons Pavilion is a good opportunity to create Pipe Vials at the 3D printer, to have Kuafu make modifications, to deliver items to Shuanshuan, and to give chips toShanhai 9000.
Go to Cortex Center
After taking care of business in the Four Seasons Pavilion, players shouldexit the hub and head left. Fans will encounter alocked gateafter traveling in that direction for a short distance, and they can open it by summoning the Mystic Nymph, sending it into the wall above the gate, and hacking the device that the tool encounters.
Players should now continue to theleftuntil they reach astatue with a shield. Fans ofMetroidvaniasshouldbreak the statue’s shield(with a Charged Strike),hack the deviceto open the nearby gate, and keep moving left.
The room beyond the statue is a bit odd, as players cannot exit it initially. Indeed, fans must spend a bit of time in this room in order to trigger ajump scare. Once that jump scare occurs, players should continue to the left and activate theCortex Center Root Node.
Go to Factory Great Hall
Nine Solsplayersmust now navigate through the Cortex Center, and they will find theFactory (Great Hall)just beyond that area. Here are the actions that fans should take to get past the Cortex Center’s obstacles:
Players should now be in the Factory (Great Hall), and they are well on their way to earning their next ability and finding the third boss. While fans work toward that ability and boss, they may want to take a moment to solveNine Sols' Factory Great Hall puzzleand to perform some general exploration.
