Continuing through the rocks to a pumping station, Jun and Noble Six discovered outnumbered local [[Reach militia|colonial militia]] forces engaging Covenant troops. Kat ordered the two Spartans to assist the militia as they might have information the Spartans would need. Working together, the Spartans and the militia were able to eliminate the Covenant at the pumping station and one trooper explained that they didn't like the idea of relying on anyone else to protect their homes and revealed briefcases containing UNSC contraband - stolen heavy weapons. | |||
The Covenant sent in multiple waves of Phantom to drop in more troops to assault the pumping station. With the help of the heavy weapons, the Spartans and troopers were able to repel the Covenant attack. One of the troopers explained that the road led to a hydroelectric power plant, but the gate didn't work. However, the locals used the dried-up riverbed to smuggle UNSC contraband which could act as an alternate route.<ref name="Nightfall" /><ref group="note">If the player fails to save any of the militiamen, Kat will instead check in with [[Jorge-052]] on [[Recon Team Alpha]] and direct the Spartans to use the riverbed.</ref> | |||
