Chapter 9: Catacombs

You may be wondering where the Catacombs are. Don't worry, you haven't missed a map or anything.
The Travel Planner will come in handy here.
Chart a course from your current location (probably the Pinnacle Chamber) to the Laboratory. Include the Bazaar as a stopover in the "Stopover?" column.
Travel according to the suggested path. While you are at the Bazaar, hand over the Tattered Mousoleum Map for repairs. It'll cost you 160,000 gold.
It takes 5 days to complete the order. Hence your final destination of your world tour: the Laboratory. Use:

Collect another 30 Radioactive Blue Cheese Curd Potions (sorry, it can't be helped).
You can check on the progress of your order anytime, even from the Laboratory, from Inventory → Cartographer.
Once you've collected the potions and the order is done, go back to the Bazaar to pick up the Mousoleum Restoration patch.
A new region, the Bristle Woods, appears, with a new location: the Catacombs.
Use one or two Radioactive Blue potions in preparation.
Be sure you have at least 316,350 gold (plus travelling costs) on hand.
Go to the Catacombs. Immediately buy the Obelisk of Slumber from the trapsmith. You need this trap; no other trap can substitute. Use it with the Explosive Base, and Radioactive Blue cheese.
This area behaves much like the Mousoleum did before; tough mice, but great rewards. You'll see some old mice from the Mousoleum, and some new mice. They are of a new type; the "Forgotten" type. This type is best caught using an "Arcane" trap, like the Obelisk of Slumber.
You have 3 goals here:

Catch a Keeper Mouse with the Keeper's Candle. This is the key to the next locations, the Forbidden Grove (sometimes this location is missing; that's normal), and the Acolyte Realm (note that it is locked; that's also normal). Do not go to those places yet.
Collect 632,700 gold (yes, I'm aware that's a lot) to buy the Mysterious Blueprints from the General Store.
Collect 12 pieces of Scrap Metal, dropped by the Scavenger Mice here.

The Mysterious Blueprints are used to craft your next trap. Before crafting it, make sure you have:

Magic Essence is obtainable by smashing SUPER|Brie+. Find out how to obtain SUPER|Brie+ here.
Once you have those items (check it twice!), unequip your Obelisk of Slumber (by equipping another weapon), and smash it with your Hunter's Hammer in the crafting panel. You'll get 1 Obelisk Parts.
Craft the Obelisk Parts with the other ingredients above (except the points :p) to get your Arcane Capturing Rod Of Never Yielding Mystery (or the ACRONYM for short).
Note that the ACRONYM has an "Insanely Stale" cheese effect. Switch to the Dehydration Base to counteract this effect.
If you accidentally smashed the Obelisk of Slumber while lacking ingredients, you may reconstruct it by crafting the Obelisk Parts with the Bead of Slumber from the General Store. It'll set you back 2,000 gold, but that's better than having to buy it again.
Once you have crafted the ACRONYM, continue hunting until you run out of Radioactive Blue, then continue to the next chapter.
Notice that the Curds and Whey in the Catacombs are extremely cheap; only 3 gold per unit. Go ahead and buy in bulk (1000-2000 units).
