Head down the nearby stairs to your right and you'll find the Glowing Omen on the way down.
| Declassify |
| "Kilo Squad claimed to have found and destroyed Locust Eggs of unknown origin." Serapede Eggs left intact will hatch, spawning more Serapedes to fight. |
| There are 10 groups of Serapede Eggs and if you don't destroy them, they will hatch behind you and force you into a fight with Serapedes. |
You'll likely see your first set of Eggs against the wall across from the bottom of the stairs. Note, however, that the locations of the eggs is randomized and can appear in multiple locations. Make sure to check every wall, floor, ceiling, corner and E-hole (there's only one) that you come across.
When you come off the stairs, turn left. Along this hallway, you'll find the first door on your right leads to a weapons cache and I'd recommend taking one of each Lancer. Enter the second door on the right and about half way across you'll be attacked by your first Serapede. Wait for it to cross the room and head for your teammates before getting behind it with the Retro Lancer. Just unload into its tail to make quick work of it. You'll come across another Serapede when you are nearly to the door at the back. Make sure you get the rest of the eggs before leaving or you'll have more Serapedes to deal with.
Go through the doors at the far end of this floor to enter the Archives proper. In here, follow the left wall around past the elevator and you'll eventually find a Crimson Omen on the wall, turn right and you should find a body with a [COG Tag].
Be careful in this room, however. There are quite a few enemies in this room - most of them Serapedes. You'll also encounter tickers and possibly Grubs as well. Try to stick with your squad to make dealing with the Serapedes easier.
After you deal with this initial group, you'll be sent to the back right corner of this room. Head there and then take cover. You'll see an E-Hole open up by the wall. Toss a grenade in and then get back behind cover. Up above and to the right will be a Grinder. Kill him and the wall behind the E-Hole will explode. Coming out of that hole will be a few Scorchers. Hit their gas tanks on their backs to deal with them quickly and possibly take a couple extra enemies with them.
Clear the hole and then enter. Inside, take a right and head for the end. You'll see a Markza Rifle on the ground that's been modified. It has lost the scope and shoots slower but it packs more punch and sports a blade for melee combat. Head for the objective just up the stairs.
