Where can you find the underground temple? In the past few days, this may be the question asked by one or the other player who was just at the scout post and picked up the eponymous quest “The Temple in the Underground” from the researcher Josha. The quest starts after completing the “People Underground” quest, where you have to go underground and search for Romelo there. You also have to take a picture of a statue. Since the temple you are looking for is not that easy to find underground, we have created a short guide with a solution for the quest here.

As mentioned above, you must first complete the “People Underground” quest before you can search for the Temple Underground. Picked up the quest from Josha and you’re good to go. The description says “Enigmatic statues can be seen on the large mural that Josha assembled from small fragments. Josha noticed that all of the statues’ gazes end at a temple-like building in the middle“. The temple-like building can be found underground at the abandoned Central Mine, which is beneath the “Forgotten Plateau” in the overworld.
- If unlocked, teleport to the underground root “Inoguqojk” and then simply follow the path south. Alternatively, you can teleport to the Nusimak underground root and then head southwest.
- If you haven’t unlocked the two underground roots yet and have no idea where to find the temple underground, you should jump into the underground entrance at the forest of times north of the Panora Mountain. At the bottom walk a few meters to the north and here you will find the mentioned Nusimak root (see screenshot). From there walk to the southwest and you can already see the temple you are looking for in the distance.
- At the temple you have to talk to the researcher and activate the green symbol. Link then learns the “Bauto” ability from the minion construct. After learning the Baumatik skill and building the vehicle, there is a battle against Koga, the leader of the Yiga.
- Finally, you have to report back to Josha, assemble the balloon using the newly learned Bautomatic ability and the “The Temple in the Underground” quest is successfully completed.
Incidentally, Bautomatic is Link’s “last hidden ability”.
