Once the Skulls are gone, destroy the AA radar and call the chopper to Da Smasei. If you prefer not to fight the Skulls, then dash out of Da Smasei Laman towards the main road to lose sight of them. It's worth killing them, as you get a ton of bonus mission points for doing so. They are tough, but a burst to the head will still drop them. It should take 2 shoots per Skull, but you can also use normal weapons on them. You can either flee or fight them using the Honey Bee. Once you reach the surface with the Honey Bee, those zany Skulls return for a big battle.

From there, exit the caves by using the same path or thru the large opening on the other end. The weapon is hidden in a tiny alcove inside the room, so grab it to complete the objective. Follow the slope down to the lower cave chamber where the Honey Bee is waiting (see screencap above for the location). Drop down into the room below and scan the base of the walls for a small hole you can crawl through. Follow the main path up and you'll find a hole in the floor. Making your way through the caves can be disorienting. As you approach the cave system you should also see the prisoner (if you didn't extract him at the relay base). Once inside head toward the center and back, then left relative to the cave entrances.

The west rock wall is a relatively safe path to the caves. Take the footpath to enter the fort on the southwest side. We recommend bypassing the main entrance and following the road a bit further west. You'll do well to sneak to the periphery and interrogate a couple of guards to get bearings on troop positions. The valley that Smasei Fort sits in is impressive, pockmarked with caves on the north wall and patrolled by hordes of enemy soldiers. You can shoot it down, or simply hide until it passes. As you pass an outpost, a helicopter will appear. He won't stay here long though, as they soon begin transporting him to the same location as your objective.ДЇollow the road carefully, leaving the area with the large bridge, and head towards your objective. If you thoroughly scan the area, you will see that the troops on the far side of the bridge have a prisoner. You'll find Diamonds on both sides and a Tape on the far side.Д«eneath the bridge you'll find a few tents and items to grab at the bottom of the steps. Or, drop down into the valley, run across the bottom, climb up the other side and sneak past everyone. Ease the crossing by bringing your sniper rifle and simply clear out the opposition from a distance.

The bridge in this area can be annoying if you rely on short-range arms.

Destroy the AA Radar and change the LZ location to Da SmaseiДЇollow the road to the Mountain Relay Base.

Defeat the Skulls by staying inside the ruins and using your grenade launcher on them.

Infiltrate Da Smasei using the northern hidden path.

Gallop quickly to Da Smasei Laman while avoiding the chopper.

Ignore the mute prisoner and quickly exit the base (use the mountain walls to stay concealed from the captors).

Gallop to the Mountain Relay Base and stay hidden by using the solar panels as cover (don't use the lower canyon or snipers will see you).

For the S-Rank, you'll need speed and some strong weapons to fight the Skulls.
