Mission List: Rank (Knight) Preceded By: 5-2 Mission: Hall of Heroes Followed By: 6-1 Mission: An Explosive Plot Important Stratum Themes: Monsters: Rewards: Prestige x100 Advanced Orb of Alchemy x2 Spark of Life x2  Jelly Gem

The Sovereign Slime is a 5-2 rank mission.

Overview

Description:

The source of the strange energy signature is believed to be located somewhere in the Royal Jelly Palace, the home to one of the members of the slime aristocrac, the Royal Jelly.

This might of these sovereign slimes is not to be understimated. Should you find yourself facing this hot-tempered highborn, you would be wise to be equipped with the appropriate gear and backed by a full squad of experienced knights.

It is highly recommended that you equip yourself with pierce resistant gear and shadow damage weapons before deploying for the Royal Jelly Palace!

Objective:

Infiltrate the Royal Jelly Palace and find the mysterious energy source.

Notes

This mission was introduced with release 2012-02-22. The boss stratum composing its floors was introduced with release 2011-02-11, accessible via arcade gates. Players may venture into this area of the Royal Jelly Palace via The Sovereign Slime or the relevant arcade gate as often as desired.

The Royal Jelly Palace is the name of a geographical area featuring a collection of special maps. As such, it has its own description separate from the mission:

The Royal Jelly Palace is an ancient castle overtaken by a legion of slime monsters. It is unclear what purpose the castle serves, though it is rumored to house a Royal Jelly, said to be nobility within the slime kingdoms. If true then the purpose of the castle is likely to serve the Royal Jelly, and nothing more.

This mission is played often in order to obtain  Jelly Gems to exchange with Brinks for related gear.

With release 2014-05-21, the treasure room layout was changed in association with The Artifact. The recon module only needs to be collected once, after that, it is accessible via the artifact tab of the player's arsenal. After Volume II of Harry Mack's soundtracks for Spiral Knights crashed, the "Two Slimes Are Better Than One" was replaced for as short time by "Lichen to a Polyp".  Monstrous Codex: Royal Jelly Monstrous Codex: Royal Jelly This massive gelatinous cube has a short fuse and loves to throw his weight around. When his royal tasters are absent a poisoned parfait would be a royal pain. Close Codex  Recon Module: Royal Jelly Palace A recording from Parma, Alpha Squad Recon: Someone out there has it in for me. While in recon training I was routinely frustrated by the limits of the training simulations- I knew they were not real. I craved the open air, soil beneath my feet and the wind. I wanted the challenge only the wild can offer. The Skylark crash was horrible, and the resulting situation even worse. But when Captain Ozlo selected me for this squad I was excited- there is no greater wild than what this planet offered. Is that wrong? But then as we stepped off of that first elevator platform and sunlight warmed our faces it began to sink in: the grinding of gears, the buzzing of enormous lights, the smell of smoke and the steam-filled air... the wild we had stepped into was not real. It was another simulation. More ironic still is how little of my training actually applies now. This world is crazy, the terrain changes constantly. I think this squad would have been better off with another guardian instead of me. At least then they would be better prepared to fight whatever they didn't see coming.
