Dying Light 2 Reloaded Edition Gameplay Walkthrough Part 9 - No Commentary
Aiden, a 20 year old survivor of the Fall and a Pilgrim—a brave traveler who delivers goods and information between settlements—has been making his way to the city of Villedor. After being told by Spike how to contact a man named Dylan who knows the whereabouts of Vincent Waltz, a doctor who experimented on Aiden and his sister Mia when they were children to find a cure for THV, but were separated due to a terrible incident in the lab, Aiden contacts Dylan over the radio & meets with him. However, Aiden is attacked & bitten by a Volatile and becomes infected with THV. After traveling through the tunnel,[which?] and saving Dylan from a group of Renegades, Dylan gives Aiden a working GRE electronic key, warning him that if Waltz were to get his hands on it, Villedor would be doomed. He then instructs Aiden to take the key to the "Fish Eye", and find a woman named Lawan. Dylan proceeds to open a fan duct, and sends Aiden through before shutting & locking it. Aiden watches as Waltz executes Dylan and then proceeds to chase Aiden, making his way further into Villedor. Aiden eventually finds his way to the Bazaar, a large settlement in old Villedor run by a group of people called Survivors. Aiden is nearly killed due to his lack of a biomarker—an electronic device that tracks the progression of THV—but is saved by Hakon, a former Nightrunner. Hakon explains that tensions in Villedor are high due to the recent murder of a high ranking Peacekeeper officer, Lucas. The Peacekeepers believe that the survivors of the Bazaar are responsible due to their hatred of the Peacekeepers, and risk of a war between the two factions seems imminent. Hakon helps Aiden obtain a biomarker and tries to smuggle him into Villedor's Central loop, where the Fish Eye is located. Players can choose to side with either the Bazaar's leaders, Carl and Sophie, or with Aitor, an officer of the Peacekeepers. Both of them promise Aiden that they will smuggle him into the Central District as both sides go to war. Regardless of who Aiden sides with, he discovers that Hakon was the one who killed Lucas, on Waltz's orders. If players choose to help Hakon after he is shot, Aiden comes across a person who is attempting to kill him, and discovers the person is a woman. After making his way to an abandoned GRE tunnel, Aiden is met by Aitor, who may be either angry or friendly depending on the player's choices. Waltz suddenly appears in the tunnel & confronts Aiden, demonstrating superhuman abilities as he steals the GRE key from him, and kills all of the Peacekeepers except for Aitor. Aiden pursues Waltz to an abandoned car factory, where he uses the key to activate a console before the mysterious woman intervenes, incapacitating Waltz long enough for Aiden to recover the key and escape. The woman reveals herself to be Lawan, and explains that she seeks revenge against Waltz because she was also one of his test subjects. She also reveals that Lucas was murdered by Waltz after originally finding the GRE key. With the key, Aiden and Lawan are able to enter the Central district, where they see electricity suddenly be restored to the city due to Waltz's use of the key. Aiden then meets with the commander of the Peacekeepers, Jack Matt, as well as the former leader of the now defunct Nightrunner group, Frank. They both task Aiden with reactivating the radio antenna atop Villedor's highest skyscraper so that they can broadcast messages to the rest of Villedor and the settlements beyond, and in return they can help Aiden with finding a surviving GRE doctor so that he can access the GRE database. After reactivating the tower, Aiden learns that the GRE doctor's identity is Dr. Veronika Ryan, a Bazaar resident. Aiden returns to the Bazaar and finds Veronika, who is on the run from the Renegades. Together, they head to a GRE facility called the Observatory, which had originally been inaccessible due to being bombarded by THV GenMod.[clarification needed] At the observatory Veronica claims they can find the location of a GRE database. After accessing the database, Aiden does not find any information to help his search for Mia, but discovers that Waltz reactivating Villedor's power plant also reactivated a GRE failsafe protocol, which initiates missile bombardments to destroy Villedor. Waltz arrives to take the key, and while fighting him, Aiden loses control of his THV infection and kills Veronika just as a missile destroys the Observatory, allowing Waltz to escape with the key.
