The Master Chief arrived in Voi via the Tsavo Highway and joined up with the [[Thel 'Vadam|Arbiter]] and a large group of [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]]. The battle for the city begun with the UNSC attacking entrenched Covenant forces. During the engagement, many [[Voi factory workers|surviving workers]] from the Traxus facilities, armed with recovered UNSC weapons joined the Marines in their fight to liberate Voi. Together they destroyed multiple [[Anti-Air Wraith]]s, a [[Type-47 Ultra Heavy Assault Platform|Scarab]], and the Covenant anti-air gun. With the anti-air forces destroyed, [[Fleet Admiral]] [[Terrence Hood]]'s ships attacked the Prophet of Truth's Dreadnought, until Truth activated the Portal to the Ark and escaped through it, with his fleet following.<ref name="storm"/>

After this, a [[Indulgence of Conviction|Flood-controlled ship]] slipped in, and crashed in at the western edge of the city. This ship was full of Flood, and the Master Chief and the Arbiter began to fight this new threat. Under orders from [[Commander]] [[Miranda Keyes]], they started to move to the downed cruiser, hoping to destroy it in an effort to contain the Flood. As they neared the cruiser, the [[Swords of Sanghelios|Sangheili]] [[Fleet of Retribution]] arrived, led by [[Shipmaster]] [[Rtas 'Vadum]]. The separatist flagship, ''[[Shadow of Intent]]'', deployed [[Sangheili]] ground forces to assist the humans. Voi was ravaged by the Flood infestation and many Marines and surviving civilian personnel were infected in the ensuing chaos, but the Chief and his surviving allies forged ahead into the heart of the city.

The humans learned that the separatists were looking for the [[Artificial intelligence|AI construct]] [[Cortana]], who was supposedly aboard the Flood cruiser. Separating from the Arbiter, the Chief went aboard the cruiser. What he found was not [[Cortana]], but a damaged message left by her. As he was inspecting it, [[343 Guilty Spark]] arrived to repair Cortana. All human and Elite forces retreated to the ''Shadow of Intent'' as the fleet [[Glassing|glassed]] Voi, therefore destroying all Flood in the vicinity and preventing the parasite from spreading any further.<ref>'''Halo 3''', campaign level ''[[Floodgate]]''</ref>

Voi was terminated as a result of the excavation event; only a few industrial buildings remained, which were promptly destroyed by the separatists as they cleansed the region of Flood, effectively ending the Battle of Voi and marking the end of the campaign on Earth. After the end of the war, [[Voi Memorial|a memorial ceremony]] was held atop a hill in the remains of the town. As humanity began the arduous process of rebuilding, it was decided that this hillside be kept untouched as a memorial to those fallen in the war.<ref>'''Halo 3''', campaign level ''[[Halo (Halo 3 level)|Halo]]''</ref>
