==Summary==
==Summary==
The Rookie, having found [[Veronica Dare|Dare]]'s distress signal after exploring the city, descends down an underground [[elevator]] shaft into the [[Superintendent]]'s [[New Mombasa Data Center|Data Center]]. He arrives at sub-level 7 of the complex and must fight his way down to sub-level 9, where Dare is hiding. On the way down, The Rookie has to defeat a range of Covenant, including Brutes and Drones. During this time, the Rookie runs into an [[Unidentified NMPD officer|NMPD Officer]] searching for his men. He follows the Rookie until he is killed by either the Drones or the Rookie (Depending on the number of audio logs found). Once the Rookie and Dare are reunited, Dare informs the Rookie of the true nature of their mission. The two then fight through a [[Yanme'e|Drone]] hive to the Superintendent's core to secure its data as well as "the asset," revealed to a rogue [[Huragok]] named [[Quick to Adjust]] that has taken refuge there. Quick to Adjust has assimilated the Superintendent's data with its own knowledge, particularly the Superintendent's [[Vergil]] subroutine, making it an extremely valuable defector to the [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] and a major liability for the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]]. [[Edward Buck|Buck]] fortuitously arrives just as Covenant reinforcements attempt to secure the complex, and with his help Dare and the Rookie escort Vergil safely to the surface through heavy resistance.

*The player can push Dare through the floor on this level through a glitch. When one and Dare are about to enter the small elevator, activate the elevator before Dare boards. After the elevator goes up, she will remain standing under it, and lowering the lift onto her will push her into the ground. She will later reappear on the upper levels of the hive.{{Citation needed}}

*When the Rookie links up with Dare, she comments on "some idiots" blowing up [[ONI Alpha Site (location)|the building]] at the top of the shaft and waking up the whole hive. This is a reference to the level ''[[ONI Alpha Site]]'' and Dutch and Mickey.

*Not killing the NMPD Officer when he turns hostile would turn your allies (Dare, Buck, and Vergil) to the enemy in the late part of the level. As such, killing the NMPD Officer is required to avoid being hostile with Dare, Buck, and Vergil for the rest of the level.
**The game system likely marks the player as hostile to NMPD and UNSC allies when turning the NMPD Officer into hostile. This can be avoided if the player leaves the NMPD Officer at the crime scene and proceeds throughout the level while keeping him as an ally.
