Ifrit Golem

The Ifrit Golem is a boss in Sonic and the Secret Rings.

To the Water Blue Ring
When the Golem was first summoned, Sonic attempts many unsuccesful homing attacks on it. Shahra telling him he cannot fight fire with fire, Sonic leaves to find Sinbad, a sailor who may know how to defeat the Ifrit.

When he meets Sinbad, he tells him that to defeat the Ifrit, Sonic must douse it with the Water Blue Ring. Sonic found this World Ring after a battle with Captian Bemoth. He hurriedly rushed to the Ifrit's Chamber.

Attacks
Ifrit can use many attacks, such as firing an eye laser that does not hurt Sonic directly but creates a flame wall, dropping tanks of gas when Sonic came near it's hands, and (later in the battle) dropping into the hot water within its cauldron. it would also fall into the cauldron if Sonic succesfully attacked all the lights on its hands, in which the Ifrit would be helpless for a time long enough for Sonic to perform a few homing attacks on it's head. The Ifrit would not surrender until Sonic performed fifteen homing attacks on it's head, causing it to fall into the cauldron and melt in the burnign water.

The Orb with the Ring
Only half the battle was won after Sonic defeated the Ifrit. A red orb appeared, and Sonic had to take it outside the foundry before it exploded. The explosion revealed the Red World Ring.
