Shortly after John-117's disappearance after the [[Battle of Mombasa|Mombasa slipspace event]], Blue Team was deployed to help defend Earth during the span of two weeks, while [[UNSC In Amber Clad|''In Amber Clad'']] was busy pursuing the [[Prophet of Regret]]. Blue Team conducted operations including numerous operations in orbit around Earth, [[Battle of Ross Island|stopping a Covenant invasion]] on [[Mount Erebus]] in [[Wikipedia:Antarctica|Antarctica]] with a [[HAVOK tactical nuclear weapon|HAVOK tactical nuke]], and stopping Covenant forces on the sea floor off of the [[Yucatan Peninsula]]. Following these ops, they were [[Battle of Havana|deployed]] to the [[Centennial Orbital Elevator]] in [[Havana]], [[Wikipedia:Cuba|Cuba]] to stop Covenant forces that had gathered around the orbital elevator. They then stopped the Covenant forces, who had captured multiple nuclear warheads, before they could ascend the orbital elevator.

In [[2559#October|October 2559]], Blue Team, now wearing [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN3)|GEN3 armor]], was sent to infiltrate the ruined [[CASTLE Base]] on [[Reach]] in search of assets kept by Dr. [[Catherine Halsey]] in a secret cryovault, assets that held the key to defeating [[Cortana]]. Blue Team and the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}'s forces came up against the [[Banished]] who were occupying the planet while searching for the [[Menachite portal complex|Forerunner complex]] that Blue Team had found beneath CASTLE Base during the [[Fall of Reach]]. The conflict left Blue Team battered and with heavily damaged armor, but they succeeded in retrieving three [[cryobin]]s and a lockbox from the cryovault. However, by following Blue Team's trail, the Banished succeeded in finding the Forerunner complex and opening a [[slipspace portal]] to [[Installation 00|the Ark]], allowing [[Atriox]] to return to the Milky Way galaxy. While scouting the Forerunner complex, [[Fred-104]] encountered Blue Team's old friend [[Veta Lopis]], now undercover in the [[Keepers of the One Freedom]]. Lopis passed on a message to ONI through Fred, warning them of Atriox's return and the fact that the Keepers of the One Freedom, accompanied by the [[Ferret]]s, were heading to the Ark in order to fire the [[Halo Array]] and start the Great Journey.{{Ref/Novel|SoR}} The cryobins recovered by Blue Team contained Halsey's surviving [[flash cloning|cloned]] brains from the creation of Cortana, allowing her to create [[the Weapon]], an exact copy of Cortana whose mission was to imitate Cortana and lock her down for deletion.{{Ref/Game|Hi|Detail=[[Audio log (Halo Infinite)#Recovered Files|UNSC Audio log]]: Recovered Files}}{{Ref/Game|Hi}} | In [[2559#October|October 2559]], Blue Team, now wearing [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN3)|GEN3 armor]], was sent to infiltrate the ruined [[CASTLE Base]] on [[Reach]] in search of assets kept by Dr. [[Catherine Halsey]] in a secret cryovault, assets that held the key to defeating [[Cortana]].
