Secret Mission 01

Devil May Cry 4 - Secret Mission 01 -- Annihilation

When: Mission 02: La Porte De L'Enfer
Where: Terrace/Business District (after crossing the gap with Hell Bound).
Objective: Destroy all demons within the time limit.

While this secret mission is available during the second mission, it would be a good idea to wait until you've powered up Nero before attempting this. You have 60 seconds to clear out all of the Scarecrows in the area; the mission is a failure if you run out of time. An easy way to clear this mission is to wait until you have attained a lengthy Devil Trigger gauge by purchasing Purple Orbs, as the Devil Buster ability will usually kill a Scarecrow with a single use. You can clear out a good number of them with Devil Snatch, and then finish the rest off with other abilities. The Streak and Split Red Queen abilities are also good to have.

If one of your attacks happens to knock an enemy back, don't run after it, but instead use Snatch to pull the Scarecrow back to you. Snatch works while you're up in the air, too. If the Scarecrow falls beyond the Devil Bringer's reach, turn your attention to a different one. In the event of failure, you can immediately retry the mission if that failure wasn't due to Nero's death. Once you've met the objective, pick up the Blue Orb Fragment to clear the mission.
