Chapter 9: An Uneasy Alliance

Follow Laksmi and clear the path for her. Next, stack up to the cart and push it together with her. After reaching the exit, climb over the blockade to trigger a cutscene. After that, find the interchange lever for the tracks and pull it. Next, push the nearby cart so you can use it to climb over the wooden platforms. Climb up to the street level and examine the gate.

Once the sniper appears, climb the stairs nearby to reach the roof. Take cover since more armed guards are waiting for you. Take them out and grab the ammo and the carbine from their bodies. Head to the balcony and engage the enemies on the ground pinning Lakhsmi down.

Head inside the building and make your way to the ground level. Once there, take cover since the place will be stormed in by several armed guards. Be careful of the shotgunner that will approach you. Take out the remaining guards and replenish your ammo. Head outside where you'll find more guards, including one that wields a Thermite gun. He's armored so it will take several shots to kill him. Just make sure to stay behind cover and avoid the areas where the thermite powder has been sprayed.

Once killed, clear the alley and grab the Thermite gun. Find the stairs near the gate at the end of the alley and climb up. Jump to the next wooden platform and climb inside the window. Climb inside the building and open the next door. Time your sneak attack right to kill the sniper. You'll be taking his weapon automatically so use that to provide cover to Lakshmi.

Once she moves up, open the next door where another QTE will trigger. Press the button to survive the sneak attack and drink the Blackwater. Next, you have to drag yourself amidst the enemy fire towards Lakshmi. Keep moving until you get inside.

When inside, find the chain in the right side of the room. Interact with it and hold the button to move the platform near the walkway upstairs. Once done, go upstairs and jump over the platform. Lakshmi will operate the platform again. Once the platform stops moving, jump to the next walkway and go downstairs. Open the gate for her. Before helping her out on the next door, you can pick up a phonograph in the middle shelf nearby. (Cable from the New Continent)

Help her out to open the double door, only to find more enemies inside. Take cover and kill them all. Once the room is cleared, replenish your ammo and grenades. Continue following Lakshmi and squeeze your way out of the cart for another cutscene.

After the scene, continue sneaking inside the offices. Once you're back in the ground floor, don't leave the office yet. You can pick the lock of the door around the corner at the back. This will allow you to grab another phonograph. (Cargo Inspection Log)

Open the door to exit the office. Climb over the wall then jump over the wooden platforms to reach the lift leading up to the docked ship. After lifting the platform, boost Lakshmi to take a peek inside. Follow her by jumping on the next platforms and complete a single QTE.

After that you'll be in a heavy firefight with the guards. Keep an eye to the explosives that will fired by an armored guard wielding a grenade launcher. Press X to roll out when you see the prompt. Kill the enemies on the ship's deck then equip the sniper rifle in your starting position to take out the guards in the dock.

Move forward a bit and a sniper will appear. He's located on the nearby crane. If you can't find him immediately, take cover and look around. You should see the flashes on his scope reflected by sunlight. After taking out the sniper, find the TS-17 Detonator that the armored enemy used earlier and equip it as your primary weapon. There's also an ammo cache nearby that you can use to replenish your Detonator's ammo.

Ride the lift down and you'll find another TS-17 Detonator on the table. Jump on the ledge below then cut the rope to create a ramp. Go down and climb on the next ledge. More enemies will be waiting for you in this area. Use your elevation advantage against them then climb down when the coast is clear. More enemies will appear so take cover and clear them out as well. Climb up the ramp and open the door to the next building.

Change your weapon if you want to then open the next door. Head to the next door to reach the cargo hold. You have to find a cargo box with a red marking in the lowest shelf so you can examine it. After the scene, you'll be in another cargo bay. You'll have to help Lakshmi to destroy the vile cargo. She will pour fuel on the cargo boxes and you just need to light them up.

After lighting up two cargo boxes, boost Lakshmi up in the ledge then climb the ladder she'll lay down. She'll continue pouring on another cargo box. Light it up and guards will flood in and attack you from the opposing walkway. Take cover and engage them in battle. The Detonator's a perfect weapon for this lot since you can aim for the walkway's floor beside enemies taking cover and detonate them remotely by pressing R1. You can also detonate the shells in mid-air, making it a very effective weapon against enemies hiding behind cover.

Once the cleared, refill your ammo using the ammo box on the lift. Lakshmi will operate the lift down where you'll fight more guards from the same platform. Take cover and engage them. As the battle drags on, dangerous enemies like the shotgunner and armored detonator will arrive. Use Blacksight to effectively deal with the charging shotgunner while use your own Detonator against the armored target.

After killing all enemies, a cutscene will take place. You'll be taken in another room where you have to deal with the lesser lycans. Always keep an eye to the evade prompt. These lycans will most likely attack in succession, making it harder to watch out for them. It's advised to switch your Detonator with the M28 automatic rifle nearby and stay near the door in your starting position. This will allow you to wait for their attacks and riddle them with bullets until you soften them up for a finishing move. After killing two of them, continue forth to trigger another cutscene and the chapter's complete.
