Dialogue

 * Outcast: You all set?


 * Outcast: Yeah.


 * Outcast: You, okay?


 * Outcast: Just hope I can get through the gates before any symptoms start to show.


 * Outcast: Where are you sent?


 * Outcast: Campus.


 * Outcast: I hope you infect every last one of those fuckers.

Briefing Manny Ortega:
 * Outcast: Yeah.

Henry's worried about Outcast activity at that abandoned Disease Control Department facility. Patching him in now. Are you there, Henry?

Henry Hayes:

Yeah. We've been keeping an eye on the old DCD site. People leave their infected with Green Poison and have started heading toward the Campus.

Manny Ortega:

We're getting reports that they're headed to other civilian centers. We need to shut this site down.

Transcript:

Manny Ortega: Henry’s reporting active Green Poison cases. Looks like they’re coming from the DCD complex. Whatever’s happening over there, we need to shut it down.

The Agent engages the Outcast guards in the courtyard, including reinforcements consisting of a Veteran Controller and Assault.

Outcast 1: You let them into the lab, and I’ll let you answer to Emeline, personally!

The Agent kills the reinforcements and enter the administration building.

ISAC: Active terminal detected.

Manny Ortega: See if you can hook ISAC into that terminal and get us some intel.

The Agent heads upstairs, surprising three Outcast guards.

Outcast 2: They’re heading for the terminal. Stop them!

The Agent kills them and activates the terminal.

ISAC: Connection established. DCD data stream enabled.

Manny Ortega: Alright, let’s see what we’ve got…. There’s an active lab on the north side, close to you. Your first priority should be to shut that down.

The Agent heads back downstairs and eliminates two guards that charge in.

Manny Ortega: Looks like the best way to take the lab offline should be the decontamination protocol.

Agent Kelso: That’s just a fancy way of saying ‘Everything gets sterilised’.

Manny Ortega: ISAC’s not detecting the gas needed for the decontamination process. They must have disabled the line.

Agent Kelso: Hit the main fuel line in the basement, that should get it flowing again.

The Agent heads downstairs to the basement.

Manny Ortega: Open the fuel line. That should give the Decon protocol enough gas to run.

The Agent engages the outcast guards that include a veteran thrower.

Outcast 3(Surprised): They’re in the basement!

The Agent kills the Outcasts in the basement, as well as reinforcements that include two veteran Heavy Weapons, and activates the fuel line.

Manny Ortega: The decontamination protocol can be triggered from a panel in the lab above you. Stay put once you pull the trigger and you should be safe. Top floor - you can’t miss it. It’s right in the middle of the lab.

The Agent makes their way upstairs and surprises three Outcast guards.

ISAC: Virus samples, detected.

Outcast 5: Fuck! They’re in the building! Get them!

The Agent eliminates the guards and activates the protocol, scorching the entire lab.

Agent Kelso: I guess you could call that clean.

An Outcast unlucky enough to enter the lab as the protocol starts runs past the window, burning.

Outcast 6: Ahhhh!

The Agent makes their way out of the building, killing another four Outcasts present downstairs including a Veteran Thrower.

Manny Ortega: You should be able to access the morgue at the far end of the west-wing construction sites. If they haven’t been disposing of the corpses properly, we could have another outbreak on our hands.

The Agent enters the construction site and finds multiple guards present including a veteran thrower, searching the area.

Outcast 7: Spread out and search for ‘em. They could be anywhere.

The Agent kills all Outcasts present, including a Veteran Sniper.

Manny Ortega: I think the Outcasts are using blood from an asymptomatic carrier - someone who’s infected, but doesn’t show symptoms. If I’m right, they’re weaponising green poison and turning it loose on the city. Destroy anything that might be contaminated.

''The Agent makes their way downstairs into the morgue and is greeted by a pair of doors vibrating at the far end. An Outcast Tank smashes down the doors with a sledgehammer, stumbling into the room as he does so.''

Outcast 8: Don’t let ‘em break the vats!

''The Agent kills all the Outcasts present and then destroys the vats, removing the Outcasts’ last source of infected blood. The Agent also picks up a comms device that records Emeline Shaw giving her blood for use as a weapon.''

Agent Kelso: Emeline’s the head of the Outcasts. If she’s an asymptomatic carrier, they’ve got an endless supply of the virus to play with.

Manny Ortega: Agent, your route out is going to take you into the DCD research library.

Agent Kelso: Hey. While you’re in there. Do me a favour. Recover everything you can on broad spectrum antivirals.

The agent makes their way into the library and finds the Outcasts securing the library.

Outcast 8: The lab’s toast, we gotta save the research. Don’t let Emeline down!

The Agent kills all the Outcast guards, including two Veteran Supports.

Manny Ortega:  The DCD’s data analysis lab is just ahead. See what data you can grab for Kelso.

ISAC: Data transfer initiated.

The Agent grabs Kelso’s data, fending off Outcast reinforcements including Elite Rushers and tow Elite Heavy Weapons.

ISAC: Data transfer completed.

Manny Ortega: You’re clear to get out of there. With the lab and samples destroyed, I don’t think the Outcasts are gonna be able to do much else from here.

Agent Kelso: Thanks for getting me that data to play with.

Cindy McAllister: Hostiles are moving to your position. Suggest an Egress through the courtyard to avoid getting boxed in.

The Agent makes their way to the courtyard, finding the Northern Building in flames and a large number of Outcasts in the courtyard.

Manny Ortega: Here they come. Be careful.

The Agent engages the Outcasts and eventually The Blade, the Outcast researcher and boss of the DCD outpost, appears on the far balcony.

The Blade (enraged): Do you have any idea how much damage you've done? I'm gonna enjoy cutting you to fucking pieces!

The Agent kills the Blade and all her outcast reinforcements.

Manny Ortega: Great job in there. We’ve been analysing the data you gathered, and it looks like it’s going to make Kelso very happy, even if it’s going to take a while for her to go through.

Henry Hayes: Hopefully, with the lab out of commission, the Outcasts won’t be able to send any more of their people to infect the Campus. The last we thing we beed is another outbreak. Thanks Agent, I’m real grateful.

Trivia

 * During the "Initiate the decontamination protocol" step, if you ignore the enemies and run to activate the protocol, you won't have to fight as the enemies will be burnt to death.
 * The Comms called "Complicit" can be found upstairs in a room before the terminal.
 * "Asymptomatic" is found in the blood vat room, in the northeast corner.
 * "Condemnation" can be found to the left of the staircase directly before the courtyard battle.
 * This is part of Stage 2 for the Technician Specialization.
