Artyom sustains several injuries fighting it off, and both fall from a fire escape on the side of the building, with the blind one impaling itself on a pipe as Artyom passes out.
Having found an intact case with the medicine, Artyom prepares to depart, before being chased through an air vent by a blind one. Artyom has several near misses with them throughout the facility, before arriving at the labs in the center of the building. These beasts have no eyes, and rely on their other senses to hunt their prey. They are giant mutated apes, similar to that of the librarians from Moscow's Lenin Library. Reaching the roof of the Institute, Artyom encounters a fearsome new enemy the blind ones. As he reaches the institute, he has several more visions such as Anna suffocating or talking to him through a door, however when Artyom interacts with her, he sees they are just the skeletons of the dead. After crossing the square out in the open he begins to have a vivid vision of the final moments before the bombs fell, and a tank crew shooting at the Metro entrance as the war began. As he reaches the platform he begins to see a vision of Anna guiding him forward, as well as the bones of the dead coming to life. Kirill gives Artyom and Miller two of the remaining three doses of Green Stuff to make it through the radiation.Īrtyom makes his way through the tunnels fighting nosalises and giant worms along the way, and as he reaches the Lenin Square station, the radiation seeping through the cracks in the ceiling starts to affect him even after taking his dose of the green stuff. Deciding this is not an opportunity to pass up, Miller and Artyom split up, with Miller heading to the SATCOM center, and Artyom continuing to the institute. However, he has not returned since his most recent trip several weeks ago. Kirill reveals to the pair that his father had made several trips to the Satcom center in the city retrieving maps of clean areas including the Forest Valley the Aurora passed through. Kirill and his father Slava Khlebnikov, a Lieutenant-Colonel in the OSKOM unit, are the only two survivors in the Metro, after dwindling supplies lead to riots and mutants overrunning the stations. He explains that the Metro survived due to an experimental radiation drug, known as "green stuff", which was distributed by the OSKOM unit. Travelling further into the Metro, and uncovering signs of battle, the pair run into a young boy, Kirill, who initially runs, but eventually leads them to his home.
After the duo enter the Metro, they begin to see the familiar sights of mutants, which they easily fend off. Artyom takes the wheel as Miller diverts them to an alternate entrance, a crater a few miles to the north. However the first Metro station they come across is inaccessible due to the ice build up over the entrance. Their plan is to avoid the high levels of radiation by diverting through the Metro, and coming out at Lenin Square, where the Institute is located right next to the Theater. Saying their farewells and good lucks, Miller and Artyom depart the Aurora in the heavily modified, and lead-lined van. Also to the south is their secondary objective, the Novosibirsk Museum for Railway Technology, where Yermak knows the location of a snow plow for the Aurora. It is here where Miller suspects the drug may have also been produced and as a backup Miller sends Stepan, Krest, Sam and Idiot to search the area. Novosibirsk was home to the Akademgorodok district to the south, which contained the cities university, libraries and research institutes. Miller remarks how the radiation is so high, yet the buildings are still standing, as well as the hundreds of cars blocking the roads, and the dozens of train carriages that can be seen along the railway.īack inside the bridge, Miller tasks the crew with several objectives whilst he and Artyom search the city.
Sam, Miller, and Artyom stand at the head of the train as it crosses the Novosibirsk rail bridge, and into the snow covered city.
Having left the lush greenery of the forest valley behind, the crew have moved further east to the highly radioactive city of Novosibirsk. Read at your own risk, or skip the spoiler by clicking HERE. This article contains plot information that may spoil major story aspects for the reader.
