Map of the area:

Map legend: 1 - starting area; 2 - Bounty Card; 3 - Bounty Card; 4 - control panel; 5 - entrance to the arena; 6 - exit from the arena; 7 - area where you must defeat an Alpha Drone; 8 - Bounty Card; 9 - Bounty Card; 10 - passageway to the refinery

You begin your exploration while standing inside a small room. Thankfully there aren't any enemy units in the area, so you can look around. Start off by climbing on top of two crates [#622]. It shouldn't be a problem. From there get to the attic to find a cartridge. Head back down and exit the building.

[#622]

Head forward once you've left the building. Drop to a small hole and you'll find a bounty card (Ben Dere) to your right. Go back up and turn left. Notice new crates in front of you [#623]. Use these crates to gain access to an upper balcony. Head forward and turn right. It shouldn't take you too long to find a second bounty card (Acora Minola).

[#623]

Return to the ground floor and inspect the surrounding area to find two wooden doors [#624]. Destroy one of the doors with your SCAR rifle and head inside. Use a NanoMED health station before moving on. Once you're ready proceed towards a large square and find a small checkpoint (Arena Access Control).

[#624]

Destroy the entrance to the checkpoint. After that turn around and place a few mines in front of the entrance to the arena [#625]. Go inside the checkpoint and use a control panel to raise the main gate. Notice enemy soldiers coming out of the arena. Detonate the mines to deal with them and finish off the survivors. You can also hide inside the checkpoint, place the mines outside and wait for them to show up.

[#625]

Make sure you've eliminated all hostile units and head on to the arena. Once you're inside take your time to defeat one of the snipers on the upper balcony [#626]. After that place the mines in front of three other entrances. Make a few steps forward and notice that you've been trapped here.

[#626]

I would strongly recommend that you take cover behind a large pillar [#627]. Thankfully the guards are dumb enough not to perform any surprise attacks. Each time you want to eliminate a new group lean out carefully and detonate objects in their vicinity. Keep defending yourself until you notice that a boss has showed up inside the arena.
