They then steal a pair of Wraith tanks, and blast their way into Castle Base under Menachite Mountain. There they meet up with the surviving Spartans of Delta Team, the injured Spartans, including [[Isaac-039]] , [[Vinh-030]] and [[William-043|Will-043]]. They meet up with Doctor Halsey, who treats their injuries, and sends them to retrieve some new weapons - the [[BR55 Battle Rifle]] and the [[M6C Personal Defense Weapon System|M6C]] magnum sidearm. | ||
At the lab, Dr. Halsey discovers Colonel Ackerson's plans, which were extensive lists on "Her Spartans", a star chart reference, and a third file labeled "[[KING UNDER THE MOUNTAIN]]". Before she can access these, however, a UNSC AI named [[Araqiel]] appears and attempts to stop her by threatening to kill her or the Spartans. She destroys it using a bypass code she herself had programmed, but causes some concern with her personal AI. The Covenant then invaded the base, and the Spartans and Doctor Halsey escape to the old titanium mines beneath Castle Base, right before its destruction, which blocks their only exit. Having no other alternatives, the Spartans and Dr Halsey venture deep into the tunnels. | At the lab, Dr. Halsey discovers Colonel Ackerson's plans, which were extensive lists on "Her Spartans", a star chart reference, and a third file labeled "[[KING UNDER THE MOUNTAIN]]".
