15: Extraction - part 2 | Main quests - The Slums #2 Dying Light Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Way to unlock: You need to complete main quest 14 - Clinic (Old Town).
Difficulty level: high
Note - This quest has been added to your journal when you still were in the Old Town, i.e. after you left doctor Camden's clinic. To complete its main part, you need to return to the Slum, because this is where Rais's HQ is.
If you took the route along the sewers, you start in the tunnel that you have already been to (point 7a on the map) and, if took the alternative route suggested by me (the one neighboring the tunnel in the antenna area) you start in the safe zone in the Northern Slum (point 7b on the map). In both cases, your current destination remains the same, and you need to reach the skyscraper that serves as Rais's HQ (point 7c on the map). After you reach the skyscraper, find the red door and interact with it to get to a separate area.
Climb towards the higher floors and ignore image distortion that your character experiences, because everything gets back to normal soon. After you reach a new, larger area, you watch a cutscene of the conversation with Rais, who sends a horde of zombies against Crane. Do not try fighting the infected, because they are replaced with more of them (in larger quantities). Instead, start escaping and start a long scene, where you will have to remain in constant movement. First, climb onto the metal scaffolding, which allows you to get out of an arena, of a kind.
While crossing the building site, watch out for the mutant and the other elite zombies (e.g. the bolters). Keep running until you reach a small tunnel, after a while. Follow the tunnel running and jump into the hole. After you get to the sewers, dart towards the screamer here and silence him quickly. Then, head on.
Starting with this point, there will start appearing zombies, around Crane. Just like before, do not waste your time, nor supplies, on eliminating them. However, you can use the UV light or UV flares to slow them down and decrease the risk of taking damage. The most important thing now is running away from them - along your path, jump over small platforms and grab on to the ledges above, as well as yellow pipes. After you reach the area with two extended ropes, it is a god idea to grab on to one of them, which will allow you to get around a larger group of zombies. Finally, take a long jump to the ladder a bit to the right. Climb up the ladder, to the very top.
After you leave the sewers, go straight ahead. Climb onto the flipped container and take the nearby scaffolding to continue climbing (if necessary, turn around to find interactive ledges). After you get to the ledge above, enter the red elevator, press the button and wait to go all the way up. Exit the elevator and head onwards. You do not need to escape anymore, but I recommend that you avoid engaging zombies, anyways. Locate stairs and after you stand at the destroyed part, jump towards the upper floor. Find the severely wounded Karim here and listen to the conversation.
Approach the edge and check out the nearby crane - you need to run up, jump and land on the blue bags. After you land, eliminate the zombie here, climb onto the crane and head on. Stop where you will be able to jump towards the scaffolding of the neighboring building. Eliminate the bomber here and head on, to find the destroyed stairs. Continue your exploration. Along your path, you will have to take several precise jumps onto concrete elements. It is a good idea to stop before each successive jump to recognize the distance.
After you reach the vertical shaft, jump towards the metal elements and climb onto the balconies. Then, climb several ladders to the very top of another crane. Here, you need to start running, because Rais will target the crane. Your task is to reach the end, before the crane is destroyed. Jump towards the ledges at the wall of the neighboring building and use them to reach the upper floor. Now, you will have to handle a series of difficult stunts - walk over the narrow elements of the skyscraper and jump towards the neighboring ledges. Towards the end of the climbing, crouch to get under several metal elements, thanks to which you will not have to take unnecessary risk.
Soon, you reach the rooftop of the skyscraper. Climb the last ladder here, to meet Rais. Prepare, because during the cutscene of the meeting, you will have to tap the keys/button displayed on the screen, to keep Crane alive. Finally, tap additionally the interaction key.
After you complete the QTE sequence, see the cutscene. This is not it, yet,. Because you still need to remove the dagger from Crane's body (tap the interaction button), and use it to eliminate Rais once and for all. Congratulations, this is the end!
