  7. Control Panel. Unlock the front panel by inserting a disc with a value equal to the green number. (When done, click the green box next to the number.) You will need to exchange some of the tokens to obtain certain values. (see full guide here). Talk to Brimstail for more discs.

The one by Brimstail, if you haven't killed it already. One outside of the main gate (south-east from Brimstail's cave). Note: It must be killed within stronghold walls. If it is outside, simply kill it, let it spawn, and kill it again for credit.
