Part 28

From a sniping position, take out guards or use melee takedowns. You will have crouched past a vent system on your way to the sniper.

Heading inside the vent system nets you [TRAVELER 100XP]. This shortcut connects to your destination.

The vent shaft on the intermediate level connects to a storage depot on the ground floor with [REVOLVER AMMO x3] and [SNIPER RIFLE AMMO x3] inside.

Your destination, an elevator to the lower levels, is on the lowest floor of the current area.

Path #2: Going through a door leads into a garage-like environment. Stairs connect to Path #1. Find [COMBAT RIFLE AMMO x3] on a crate. Head through the door and explore the office for a [CYBERBOOST PROENERGY BAR], [TRANQ DARTS x2], and a level 3 PC requiring login spaxxor/neuralhub. This PC grants access to doors/cameras. Deactivate cameras by clicking on their screens; a red indicator shows they are shut down.

Outside the office, wait for the nearby guard to turn his back and take him down. Hack the laser beams on your right or use code 7984. This merges Path #2 and #3.

Alternatively, head left and sneak down to your destination. You can take down remaining guards for experience. A long ladder also leads to the elevator.

Path #3: Move metal crates and read the Ebook (IPC Procedures and You). Find [SNIPER RIFLE AMMO x2] and [REVOLVER AMMO x1] on a crate.

A laser system is to your left; use code 7984 or hack it (level 2). Be careful of a patrolling guard.

You can continue onward without deactivating the laser system and overhear a conversation. When mercs split up, hide behind crates, take one down when he approaches, and hide his body.

Find [REVOLVER AMMO x4] on a crate to the left, behind the fence. Notice the sniper on the catwalk above. Take him out with a long-range weapon (tranq/sniper rifle) to prevent him from spotting you.

Alternatively, hug the wall to the right, sneak past the camera, and climb two ladders (only go up when the guard is walking away). Swiftly take him out. This is where Paths #1 and #2 merge. Find [125 CREDITS] at the far end of the catwalk.

This catwalk is a good position to take down two guards below. You can also head back down to take them out for maximum experience.

There is a guard in the cabin below. Opening the door will alert him. Take him down as he goes outside, or sneak inside through a window.

Inside the cabin, find a [POCKET SECRETARY] with a computer login (WKS0012/NTLSEC59), a [PEPS ENERGY PACK], an [AMMO CAPACITY UPGRADE], and [35 CREDITS]. The Level 2 PC can be hacked (9GREY HAT 50XP) or unlocked with the login and contains background info.

A long ladder nearby (after taking down the guard(s)) leads to your destination.

Whichever path you choose, ride the elevator down, wary of the camera (if active). As you ride down, the conspiracy begins to unravel [2500 XP], [GHOST 500XP], [SMOOTH OPERATOR 250XP].

F.E.M.A. FACILITY: Hide behind crates and grab the [EMP GRENADE] and [COMBAT RIFLE AMMO x2]. A Security Bot (Box Guard) is activated.

A good toss of the EMP grenade instantly defeats the bot but alarms nearby guards. Consider a stealthier approach.

Path #1 (F.E.M.A.): Head left and grab [COMBAT RIFLE AMMO x3] from a crate. Place a small wooden crate at iron bars to hop over. Sneak through and grab [REVOLVER AMMO x3] and [SNIPER RIFLE AMMO x2] from a crate. Find a [ROCKET LAUNCHER] and a [ROCKET] here.

Sneak out of this area. When no one is looking, grab [COMBAT RIFLE AMMO x5] from a crate and head through the nearby door.

Two guards are conversing around the corner. Grab [10MM AMMO x2] and wait.
