Upon arriving in Hykros, head towards Klema to trigger a cutscene.

Speak with Archon Elric.

Access the menu, open suppressors, upgrade to a new one, and equip it.

Speak with Franz and Elric again.

Follow the blue silhouettes to locate the first bomb. Interact with it to enter the defusal screen. Adjust the claw hand to hover directly above the green wire, then launch it to snip the wire. Avoid the red wire to prevent failure.

Proceed to the upper level of the area and climb the curtained wall. Follow the blue silhouettes to find the second bomb. The defusal puzzle is more precise due to a narrower gap to the green wire.

After defusing the second bomb, report back to Archon Elric and Franz.

You will be transported to a forcefield outside Hykros to defuse a third bomb. After a cutscene where your character initially fails, you will get another attempt.

Interact with the bomb on the forcefield. This defusal is more complex, requiring you to avoid red wires and moving orbs. Wait until the two orbs are moving in the same direction before lowering the claw when they pass towards the sides of the screen.

After successfully defusing the third bomb, talk to Franz.

Listen to Archon Elric's request and ask about the time retracement. He will ask for your help with the Omnium Towers.

Conclude your conversation with Elric and recount the events to Mi-a.

Head up the stairs in Hykros and locate Cobalt-B. She will give you a motorbike named Falcon on behalf of Franz.

Open your menu, unlock the Falcon motorbike, and equip it to your toolbar.

After getting accustomed to the motorbike, find Gerard near the portal to leave Hykros.

Pass through the portal to leave Hykros and return to Astra Omnium Tower, concluding this part of the chapter.
