A year following this rise, Blue Team were deployed from {{UNSCShip|Infinity}} to CASTLE Base to investigate assets hidden in Halsey's laboratory that may have survived the base's destruction, and help to lead to the defeat of the AI uprising. The team consisted of John-117, [[Frederic-104]], [[Kelly-087]] and [[Linda-058]], who had begun to employ their own variants of the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN3)]].{{Ref/Reuse|CFshadows}} | ||

Meanwhile a trio of Seraphs arrived and opened fire on the crash site. Fred used the drilling jumbo as a makeshift anti-aircraft gun and destroyed two Seraphs. The third Seraph attempted to perform evasive manuevers but ended up crashing. John and Kelly finished retrieving Major Van Houte from the Owl, as more Seraphs arrived to investigate. As they were evacuating the crash site, John noticed the damaged Seraph had crash-landed nearby. Using [[M9 fragmentation grenade|grenades]] to distract the newly arrived Seraphs, John inspected the crashed Seraph and discovered it had [[Banished]] markings on it. Once the team was at a safe distance, Van Houte activated the ''Special Delivery''{{'}}s self-destruct. The attacking Seraphs were caught in the blast and destroyed.{{Ref/Reuse|SoRChapt2}} | Meanwhile a trio of Seraphs arrived and opened fire on the crash site.
