Defend Paragon City

The Sky is Falling
Part Two: Operation Boomerang

Mission Acceptance

Operation Corsair is a success, but at a cost. The Praetorian rift portal has been shut down and the Sky Raider floating fortress has been captured, but a sizable number of their Imperial Defense Force is already en route to Paragon City. You won't be able to stop them from starting a fight, but you sure as hell can finish it.

Briefing

Character, I thought you were out with 11th Fleet in the Atlantic.

  • We just sailed back into port. What's the situation?

The Praetorians came into port aboard a cargo vessel. The port authority tried to stop them, but their vessel was moving too quickly.

They ran aground just over there near the ferry parking lot and started disgorging their warworks battle robots as a vanguard force for their troops.

  • There doesn't appear to be much damage for an attack.

They're leaving most of the civilians alone, unless someone pulls a gun on them, then they respond with deadly force.

Citadel and I have been trying to organize Longbow and the Talos Island police to deal with the chaos, but War Walkers seem to have spread to every corner of the island in search of heroes to engage and destroy.

We've managed to corner their main force inside this tunnel, but so far they're so well dug in that we haven't been able to punch more than 200 yards past their defenses. We've been in this stalemate for over an hour now.

  • I take it you're looking for someone to lead the charge.

I can't ask you to do that, Character, but, right now you and your task force are the most organized heroes on the island. The sooner we can break the backs of the Praetorian command and control, the sooner this will all be over.

  • Are they working with the Sky Raiders?

No, we have seen no evidence of Sky Raiders working with the Praetorians, but I'll inform Citadel to be alert for their presence. Thank you for the warning.

  • Tell your men to stand back, we're going in!


Objective: Track Praetorians through the sewers
