Taking a [[Type-52 Phantom|Phantom]], ''[[Glorious Advance]]'', to ''Infinite Succor'', the team boarded the ship and discovered the remains of [[Huragok]] and [[Unggoy]]. The slaughter of Huragok led the team to question whether the humans were truly responsible for the attack, as they were never so barbaric. Upon entering the vessel's hunting preserve, the team was attacked by mutilated animals infected by the [[Flood]]. The survivors managed to fight their way to the bridge, where 'Vadumee realized the danger of letting the Flood escape and ordered for the bridge be locked down, have warnings sent to the rest of the fleet, and to begin initiating protocols for the ship's [[self-destruct]]ion. After discovering that the Minister of Etiology had survived the Flood's attack by hiding in a hidden security room, the Legate informed 'Vadumee of the Flood's intents and that [[Proto-Gravemind|a central mass]] was forming in the ship. 'Vadumee decided to set the ship's course to the system's sun | Taking a [[Type-52 Phantom|Phantom]], ''[[Glorious Advance]]'', to ''Infinite Succor'', the team boarded the ship and discovered the remains of [[Huragok]] and [[Unggoy]]. The slaughter of Huragok led the team to question whether the humans were truly responsible for the attack, as they were never so barbaric. Upon entering the vessel's hunting preserve, the team was attacked by mutilated animals infected by the [[Flood]]. The survivors managed to fight their way to the bridge, where 'Vadumee realized the danger of letting the Flood escape and ordered for the bridge be locked down, have warnings sent to the rest of the fleet, and to begin initiating protocols for the ship's [[self-destruct]]ion. After discovering that the Minister of Etiology had survived the Flood's attack by hiding in a hidden security room, the Legate informed 'Vadumee of the Flood's intents and that [[Proto-Gravemind|a central mass]] was forming in the ship. 'Vadumee decided to set the ship's course to the system's sun; however, the Minister insisted for the Special Operations crew to evacuate him to safety and then remotely destroy ''Infinite Succor''. Angered that the Minister was willing to put his own safety before the rest of the Covenant, 'Vadumee took tactical command of the mission. 'Vadumee and three other Sangheili made their way to the vessel's Engineering station to set a [[Slipstream space|slipspace]] course towards the nearby sun, while 'Kusovai led the remaining survivors and the Minister to ''Glorious Advance''. While trekking to Engineering, the three Sangheili were killed by the Flood. Once 'Vadumee reached Engineering, the Minister revealed himself to be infected by the Flood though a view screen, while 'Vadumee was confronted by the infected 'Kusovai. He was able to make a mortal strike at the infected 'Kusovai by allowing the infected officer to strike him along his arm and face, severing his left mandibles. Setting a slipspace course towards the sun, 'Vadumee returned to ''Glorious Advance'' and travelled back to ''Seeker of Truth'' two minutes before the slipspace jump occurred.<ref name="HGN"/> | ||
The sole survivor of the mission, Rtas revealed the threat of the Flood and the Minister's death to Supreme Commander 'Vadamee upon his return to the flagship. In response, 'Vadamee invoked emergency quarantine response throughout the fleet.<ref name="flood"/> After the battle, Rtas was relieved of fleet duty and reassigned to command all Covenant Special Operations from [[High Charity]].<ref name="enc136"/> | The sole survivor of the mission, Rtas revealed the threat of the Flood and the Minister's death to Supreme Commander 'Vadamee upon his return to the flagship.
