Mission walkthrough

  1. Collect the required sword

    Pick up the mission weapon before heading to either stronghold. Keep it available even if you prefer firearms for the surrounding guards. The named targets must be finished with the sword.

  2. Clear the first stronghold

    Approach cautiously and remove bodyguards without accidentally killing the traitor with the wrong weapon. Close in with the sword for the required finishing attack. If he runs, follow promptly while watching the target marker.

  3. Collect IDs from both targets

    Search the first traitor and take his ID, then repeat at the other stronghold. Eliminate nearby guards if they prevent the search interaction. Do not leave a completed fight without collecting the evidence.

  4. Meet Hsin at the amusement park

    After both IDs are collected, travel to the final meeting. Enter the marker to finish the assignment. The two kills alone do not replace the evidence pickups and report.

Key point

Use the sword for each traitor’s finishing blow and collect the ID afterwards. Ordinary gun kills can fail the special requirement.
