During the [[Battle of Installation 04]], '' | During the [[Battle of Installation 04]], ''Infinite Succor'' was in orbit over [[Installation 04]] along with the rest of the [[Fleet of Particular Justice]], when a Covenant [[Spirit]] dropship filled with [[Flood]] [[Flood combat form|combat forms]] crashed into the ship's docking bay. Soon after, the [[Special Operations Commander]] [[Rtas 'Vadum|Rtas 'Vadumee]] led a Covenant [[Covenant Special Operations|Strike Team]] on board the ship. The team fought through a multitude of Flood infected creatures, including human combat forms and infected animals from the ship's hunting grounds, all the way to the bridge, only to find [[Infinite Succor]]'s controls disabled.{{Ref/Reuse|hgn}} | ||

The Minister ordered the entire group medically scanned before he would meet with them, due to the situation of Flood outbreak aboard the ship and refused to unlock the self-destruct because it posed too much risk that if the team was infected, they could then hack into the other primary systems.{{Ref/Reuse|hgn}} | ||

During this time it also became apparent that the [[Flood]] had gained the access codes to ''Infinite Succor'' through one of the infected [[Sangheili]] from 'Vadumee's party. As the Flood continued to spread throughout the ship, they reached the bridge and engineering room and begun fortifying the engineering room. The Flood were attempting a [[slipspace]] jump to escape [[Soell system|the system]]. At this time, 'Vadumee realized the Legate was only concerned with his own life, which had been costing the group precious time. In anger, 'Vadumee slammed the Legate into the floor, telling him that their prime concern was the [[Covenant]]'s safety, not his. The Minister was later absorbed by the Flood, becoming part of the growing [[Proto-Gravemind]] in the engine room of the ship. The infected Legate taunted 'Vadumee, before the latter destroyed the ''Infinite Succor'' by sending it on a slipspace vector with the system's star.{{Ref/Reuse|hgn}} | ||
