To locate it, in my opinion, you must take on the Hostile Intelligence quest. The quest will lead you to the planet Toliman II, found in the Toliman system, just a short jump away from the Sol system.

  1. Once you’ve started the Hostile Intelligence quest, access the missions menu.
  2. From there, initiate a jump to the Toliman system.
  3. Upon reaching Toliman, target Toliman II and seek out the designated landing site, Forward Base 441.

As you progress through the quest, you’ll engage in a pivotal conversation with the base commander, Saira Hatoum. She will provide you with the essential unlock codes to enter Londinion City.

Gearing Up

Hatoum emphasizes that while they’ll provide supplies, you’re alone once you enter the city. Kaiser will help you upload local municipal codes, Percival will stay at the base as your support, and Hadrian awaits near the city entrance.

  1. Visit the armory to gear up.
  2. The equipment marked by quest indicators is designed for battling aliens, especially the Sentinels’ UC Antixeno Spacesuit.
  3. Before proceeding, go through your inventory and send unnecessary items to your ship for later sale.
  4. When ready, speak with Hadrian at the exit and head through the corridors to the next area.

Searching For Aceles Gene Samples

As you enter the shipping yard, you’ll face various creatures controlled by the local Terrormorph.

  1. Your task is to clear the Processing Plant by swiftly eliminating threats in the nearby area.
  2. After the chaos subsides, resupply at the base cache.
  3. In the courtyard, your goal is to find several Aceles gene samples.
  4. Be cautious of Morphs in the area, including a powerful Cloaked Terrormorph.
  5. Keep your distance, let your assistants handle the fight, and focus on gathering gene samples.
  6. Two gene samples are on the ground, while the third is in a container above.
  7. To access it, approach the far end of the elevated platform, open the door, and proceed inside.

Finding More Gene Samples

  1. To continue, head through the Londinion Steam Tunnels.
  2. Here, you’ll uncover Heatleeches, those pesky creatures everyone complains about, are essentially baby Terrormorphs.

The Lazarus Plant’s spores, rapidly transform Heatleeches into full-fledged Terrormorphs, raising the possibility that a similar process caused the attack on New Atlantis.

Eliminating the Terrormorph
