Treasure Video for this level

You won't have any weapons at your disposal when this chapter starts, since you have been stripped of them earlier.  Sneak your way over to the guard to the left by leaping to the billboards and making your way over to him.  Snap his little neck and grab his grenade and gun.  Start taking out the guys below and when the coast is clear, Nate'll mention this to Elena.

.----- TREASURE #39: NAPALI BRONZE LION ---------------------------------------.
|!|This is an easy one.  It's found at the far end of the dark alley you can |!|
|!|spot from top of where you snapped the guard's neck.                      |!|
'------------------------------------------------------------------------------'

Give Elena a boost at the fire escape ladder, then climb up.

.----- TREASURE #40: YUAN DYNASTY LOTUS JAR -----------------------------------.
|!|Check out the green catwalk with the ladder you boosted Elena up and you  |!|
|!|will spot this shiny treasure.  Just walk up the staircase to find it on  |!|
|!|the catwalk above you.                                                    |!|
'------------------------------------------------------------------------------'

Follow Elena until you reach a dead end.  Appears the door is stuck, well if it ever isn't stuck!  If you go back around the corner you'll spot an electricity pole with signs onto it.  Leap over and aim at the planks barricading the door so Elena can bust through.  Right around this time, troops will assault the couple.

You can't drop down from the sign boards as it's too high, so you'll have to take cover while dealing with the soldiers.  They won't come all at once, but instead, after defeating a few of them in one building, more appear on other buildings.  When you've dispatched all of them, Elena lowers a walkway, allowing Nate to make it across.

.----- TREASURE #41: CHAM LION MASK -------------------------------------------.
|!|Simply check out the shiny glow on the other side of the previously       |!|
|!|blocked door to find this treasure.                                       |!|
'------------------------------------------------------------------------------'

Climb the ladder to reach the roof with the water tank and a cutscene will play.
Look for a rope to glide down on the left.

.----- TREASURE #42: JEWELED STATUE CROWN -------------------------------------.
|!|In this treasure-rich chapter, the next one is found right across the far |!|
|!|end of the area you land in.  Just head over to the dead end and look for |!|
|!|the usual shine.                                                          |!|
'------------------------------------------------------------------------------'

Push the cart away from the doors to enter the warehouse.  This is a pretty big hall, but there's not all that much to do.  In order to continue with the story, make your way up the trains, then go all the way over to the other side.

.----- TREASURE #43: THREE-STONE CORAL RING -----------------------------------.
|!|Before activating the train with a lever on the other side of the area,   |!|
|!|look for this treasure by getting on top of the middle train.  Here, walk |!|
|!|to the back of the warehouse and check the above wall on your left, where |!|
|!|the treasure's glow can be spotted.  To get there, use the rusty pipes to |!|
|!|swing over.                                                               |!|
'------------------------------------------------------------------------------'

Use the train cabin on the far other side of the area to smash the wooden obstruction down below - just pull the lever at the entrance of the cabin.  After you've done so you'll be caught in another big firefight.  Fortunately for you there's plenty of weapons you can grab.  Use the sniper rifle to take out the three sniper troops stationed far away and hurl grenades at groups of troops that move in.  Eventually two heavily armored grunts with chainguns appear, but shortly after Elena comes to the rescue, allowing Nate to still catch the train.  Close one!
