-Roland reveals that in 2557, a faint signal originating on Gamma Halo was detected by the orbiting [[Ivanoff Station]]. In response, a [[Headhunter]] was sent to investigate. It was discovered that the source was originating from the Conduit, and [[Jul 'Mdama]]'s [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|new "Covenant"]] has also detected the signal and is attempting to take the Conduit for themselves. The Spartan now simulates the actions of the Headhunter during the [[Battle of Installation 03]]. To prevent the UNSC from finding the Conduit, signal jammers are placed throughout the jungle in which the Conduit is located. The Spartan destroys the jammers and the device's signal is soon found to be emanating from a nearby Forerunner structure. Utilizing a stolen [[Type-26 Wraith|Wraith]] to destroy a power core, the Spartan disables a gate blocking the entrance to the structure. The Spartan is attacked by a [[Promethean Knight]] inside the structure and it is realized that the source was fabricated by 'Mdama's Covenant to distract the UNSC. Pinpointing the Conduit's true location through the use of UNSC transmitters, the Spartan departs the area in a Pelican. A terminal on Gamma Halo reveals that the Conduit is capable of opening Forerunner [[slipspace portal]]s throughout the [[Milky Way]]. Additionally, it is able to enter slipspace to save itself from destruction—as demonstrated at New Mombasa. Meanwhile, 'Mdama's Covenant discovers the [[Altar]], where they plan to use it to power the Conduit. Once the Conduit is powered, 'Mdama's Covenant intends to open slipspace portals all across Gamma Halo for their [[Promethean]] allies, from which they would take control of the Halo from the UNSC.

 The Spartan, determined to stop Jul 'Mdama's Covenant, attempts to travel to the Altar in the Pelican. However, the dropship is shot down. Surviving the crash, the Spartan fights past his Covenant soldiers and discovers a deactivated portal that leads to the Altar. Using nearby power stations to activate the portal, the Spartan enters it and appears outside the Altar. Kwon determines that a [[M808 Scorpion|Scorpion]] is needed to break past 'Mdama's Covenant's defenses at the Altar. After the Spartan destroys several nearby [[Ogab'd-pattern anti-aircraft Wraith|Anti-Aircraft Wraiths]] that were preventing the UNSC from dropping off the tank via dropship, a Pelican drops off a Scorpion and the Spartan uses it to fight his way to the Altar. The Spartan kills all Covenant forces at the Altar, and reclaims the Conduit. Realizing they have lost the battle, 'Mdama's Covenant forces begin to retreat from Gamma Halo. Delivering the Conduit to a Pelican, the Spartan operates a Covenant Spirit to leave the ringworld and rendezvous with the Pelican in orbit. After returning to Ivanoff Station with the Conduit, the Spartan receives an emergency distress call from an [[New Phoenix ONI facility|ONI facility]] in New Phoenix on Earth. The Spartan learns that when Jul 'Mdama's Covenant used the Conduit at the Altar, portals were opened across the galaxy; one portal opened at the New Phoenix ONI facility, where a [[unidentified Forerunner machine|Forerunner artifact]] was being studied. Jul 'Mdama's forces and Prometheans proceeded to [[Battle of New Phoenix|invade]] the city though the portal. Realizing that the Conduit was needed to shut down the portal, the Spartan traveled to Earth with the device to end the invasion.
