(6) Peaceful solution: Uploading a virus to the security computer Deus Ex: HR Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

In order to get to the place of virus uploading, you have to exit currently explored building (I assume that you're inside the Micro-Gen Lab), preferably choosing the same way you enter. Your current goal is located in the northern part of the map, so you would have to bypass a defensive turret and enemies near it (but only if you haven't solve that problem yet) #1. Choose a path between two already explored lab buildings #2.

Be careful, because if you haven't disabled robots here, then you'll meet one right around the corner. In such a case you'll have to watch out and slightly move between covers or use a camouflage (the Glass-Shield Cloaking System augmentation). The same applies to a security camera hang east from here #2. If it is not disabled, you have to avoid it.

If you have disabled both, a robot and a camera, you would be able to explore this area carefully. I recommend going north #1, pass the large, red container and find a storage room with broken door. Crouch and get inside #2. There is a weapon locker with a sniper rifle and a shotgun. Beside that you'll find there a template mine and an EMP grenade.

Another storage room #1 is locked with fourth security level lock, but you can use a code 2410. In addition to ammo, you'll find few weapons there #2. Especially you should take a laser rifle, if you didn't take one during your stay at the Harvesters' hideout in Hengsha.

Head west. If you have to sneak there, then keep close to the northern building wall #1, jumping between covers and moving small crates on your way if needed. Eventually you need to get to the entrance to the northern tunnel #2.

During your march you have to watch out for another security camera - you had no chances to disable it before. Turn right when it is possible #1 and then turn left, entering the control room. If you want, you can hack a computer terminal with a third security level lock #2. It would allow you to disable a camera in the tunnel and a robot (only with the Robot Domination augmentation). You could also look into lockers - there is an EMP grenade in one of them.

In order to complete current mission goal, interact with a disc drive (screen above) confirm that you want to upload a virus. Stay here for a while and wait until an elevator reaches this level. A few enemies should run next to the guard room you're currently in. Do not care about them, because they won't try to explore this room.

Reward: 750 experience points + 750 experience points for remaining unnoticed.

Note! A description of further actions can be found in the description of Step 7 (Reaching the underground bunker).
