Outbreak on Installation 00: Difference between revisions

Voridus' base did not hold for long, and they soon found themselves attempting to retreat and meet up with Pavium's forces. Their way would once again be blocked, before both commanders decided to restart the salvage operations they had been running earlier. The region they were in ran with unstable chemicals and energies, which could potentially be leveraged by the salvage drills if the Flood could be held off for just a short while. Pavium's forces set up a defense near the drill site, and began defending their base while they generated enough power to keep the [[salvage drill]]s online. The Flood had established several [[Flood hive|hives]] around the site, and the regular pressure increases forced the pustules to regularly discharge new Flood forms including [[Seeder infector]]s and [[Flood infester form|infesters]] into the environment, which began to attack the operation. However, the Banished were able to hold out long enough to discharge the drills and light the chemicals under the ground, destroying the Flood threat in the immediate area and buying the Banished forces time to breathe. Pavium ordered Voridus to send a party down into the [[Archive]], believed to be connected to the Sentinel defense network he had deactivated earlier, while the rest of the troops stayed above ground to hold off the Flood.<ref name="LTF">''Halo Wars 2: Awakening the Nightmare'', campaign level [[Light the Fuse]]</ref>
