Butterfly

A Butterfly is a virus in Child of Eden. It can be found in the Beauty Archive. As its name suggests, it resembles a butterfly.

The player must lock onto the pinkish core located in the center of the virus. It can be purified with eight shots of the Lock-On Laser.

They can close their wings and spin, making them invulnerable for a short duration.

They can be useful for getting a better high-score if you get a Perfect Octalock.

They have a Lumi's Garden counterpart, Butterfly (Reward).

If you purify all Butterfly viruses with full Octalocks, you will obtain the Butterfly Art. Note that this requires you to purify them in one shot, so you need to time the attack so the Buttefly does not spin while you are attacking it.
