Explore the starting area and then press a button on the wall that lowers the central lift, kill the Mercenary that emerges and a previously locked door opens. Proceed through the door and through a hallway filled with holographic images, into a room containing two more Mercenaries, kill them both, collect the equipment here and press the two buttons located on either side of the room.
Look at the computer console on the wall. The left side of the console is a map of the waste containment chambers in the next level, Terraniux. Three main waster containment chambers branch off a central core. The fourth chamber, which is smaller than the rest, is a control room that manages the flow of waste. Learn this picture to help with the next level.
Now return to the main area with the lift. The lift is now active, walk onto the lift, which rises up a vast distance. Upstairs, you’re on a platform overlooking two lower ledges with Mercenaries. Kill the lone Mercenary on your level, then attack the ones below from your vantage point. When they are dead, drop down to the right. You’ll find a computer console and a pair of hallways, take the right hallway to another console. Press the button on the wall for the next level to load.
