The '''containment shield''' | The '''containment shield''' is a massive [[Hardlight|hard light barrier barrier]]that can be created by [[Sentinel]] forces to quarantine an area. One was projected from the [[Sentinel Wall]] around [[Installation 05]]'s [[Library]]. One of the many containment measures built by the [[Forerunner]]s, it helped contain and enclose the [[Flood]] inside the [[Quarantine Zone]], and keep out anything that could sustain the Flood. It had to be lowered and deactivated in order to enter the Library and recover the [[Activation Index]].<ref name="h2">'''[[Halo 2]]''', campaign level ''[[Sacred Icon]]''</ref> | ||

The deactivation of the shield allowed access to the Quarantine Zone by the Covenant and the UNSC, giving the Flood hundreds of new hosts. The Flood was released onto the rest of [[Installation 05]]. As a result of this, the {{UNSCShip|In Amber Clad}} was taken over by the Flood and flown into the Covenant city of ''[[High Charity]]''.<ref name="h2"/> | The deactivation of the shield allowed access to the Quarantine Zone by the Covenant and the UNSC, giving the Flood hundreds of new hosts.

Three days after [[Human-Covenant War]] | Three days after [[Human-Covenant War]] ended, Sentinels set up a containment shield around the ruins of High Charity that survived the detonation of its backup reactors. [[Voridus]], however, destroyed a part of containment shield with a Scarab, leading to second outbreak on the Ark. This in turn caused Atriox to abandon his plans to destroy the humans on the Ark for the time being in order to stop the Flood threat. | ||
