With a momentary lull in the fighting, John was called to a strategy meeting with [[Andrew Del Rio]], Captain of the ''Infinity''. Skeptical of the threat of the Prometheans, Rio ordered an immediate attack on a Forerunner gravity well preventing the ship from leaving.{{Ref/Reuse|infil}} A strike force of Spartans led by John was deployed with a [[Mobile Anti-Aircraft Weapons Platform M510 Siegework/Ultra-Heavy|Mammoth]] ultra-heavy ground vehicle supporting the attack. Facing daunting odds, the UNSC was able to defeat a large armored strike force of Covenant and Prometheans and disabled the gravity beam. Diverted to an underground facility along the way, John was confronted with a vision from the [[Librarian]], who warned him of the Didact's plans to enslave humanity with a device known as the [[Composer]]. The Librarian also provided John with a gift: a medical treatment to counteract the Forerunners' devolution of the human genome, and a means to resist the effects of the Composer.{{Ref/Reuse|H4 reclaimer}} | With a momentary lull in the fighting, John was called to a strategy meeting with [[Andrew Del Rio]], Captain of the ''Infinity''.

Regrouping aboard the ''Infinity'', Captain Del Rio dismissed the threat of the Prometheans and prepared the ship to depart the system. Defying direct orders, John took the increasingly unstable Cortana and departed the ''Infinity''. Armed with a [[D79-TC Pelican#Gunship variant|Pelican gunship]] provided by Commander Lasky, John launched several attacks on support pillars providing the Didact's Cryptum with shields and power, with the goal of preventing him from leaving the planet and attacking Earth and other colonies.<ref name="H4S">''Halo 4'', campaign level ''[[Shutdown]]''</ref> John's attempt to stop the Didact ultimately proved unsuccessful, as the Didact managed to leave Requiem aboard [[Mantle's Approach|his vessel]], escorted by a flotilla of Covenant ships.

Stowing away aboard a [[Kmiro'sish-pattern Lich|Lich]], Master Chief pursued the Forerunner to [[Ivanoff Station]], a UNSC research base orbiting Halo [[Installation 03]] where the Composer was kept. [[Sandra Tillson|Dr. Sandra Tillson]], a lead researcher aboard the base, helped guide John to the artifact amidst a swarm of Covenant attackers. Despite John reaching the artifact first, the Didact was successful in obtaining the Composer and immediately tested the device on the crew of the station, completely destroying their bodies and assimilating their minds to power additional war machines. However, John survived, thanks to the genetic enhancements imposed by the Librarian.<ref name="composer">''Halo 4'', campaign level ''[[Composer (level)|Composer]]''</ref> | ||
