Level 6
Deepsea Dive
In this level, Lara is in the Extreme Depth Suit (EDS), and she can swim without losing air. You cannot use your weapons, but this is a very short level anyway. There is only one Secret to collect. The only enemies in this level are some small submarines that shoot torpedoes at you. You can't kill these small submarines, so you just have to avoid their shots as best you can. Just swim side to side or up and down to avoid the submarines' fire. In addition, you have some new items. The Chaff Flares are used to distract the mini submarines, so that they won't shoot at you.
You start off at the bottom of the u-boat. Swimming in this diving suit is the same as swimming without it. All the normal moves apply. Swim forward, and go past the seaweed. Turn right, and you'll enter a large underwater area. A small submarine is here, and it's firing torpedoes at you, so be careful. The small submarine basically stays in one place. Swim past the small submarine, and then, swim down. There is an underwater passage here. Swim through it, and you can collect the Secret. Now, leave the underwater passage, and swim past the small submarine to the other side. Make it back to the u-boat, and when you reach the seaweed, make a right. You are on the left side of the underwater area that you were just in. You can see the small submarine firing torpedoes on the right. There's a passageway to your left, but you can't go in since the current is too strong. You'll have to swim straight. Go past the submarine, and soon, you'll reach a passageway to the left. Go through it, and you'll reach the sunken submarine. Go inside, and swim through the series of passages underneath. There are four entrances you'll have to pass. The first one is at the bottom, the second and third at the top, and the fourth is in the middle. Soon, a cutscene will play.
Lara finds the Spear of Destiny inside a box in the sunken submarine. Soon, the submarine begins to implode, and Lara's diving suit is damaged. She begins to lose air quickly, so you have to make it back to the u-boat before Lara runs out of oxygen. Quickly go through the series of entrances in the sunken submarine except in the opposite order. Now, you're at the large opening to the sunken submarine. Swim upward, and go through the passageway. Don't go back through the long underwater area. If you do, your oxygen will run out quickly. Do you remember the passageway that you couldn't go through since the current was too strong? Well, now you can go there. Look for a passage with green seaweed, and go through. The current will speed you up, and soon you'll be back at the u-boat. Go back to where you started at the beginning of the level.

Level 7
Sinking Submarine
Lara returns to the u-boat, but Sergei and his two henchmen are waiting for her. Sergei forces Lara to give him the Spear of Destiny, and his two henchmen take her away. When Lara leaves the room, she sees lights flashing, and electric shocks are killing Sergei. There is an explosion, and the u-boat is damaged. Lara knocks out the two henchmen. This level is full of electric wires and flooded hallways. Now, turn around, and climb down the ladder. Once down here, run forward, and kill two bad guys. Get the Desert Eagle ammo and the uzi ammo that they leave behind. Run to the right, and go through the corridor. Climb the ladder. Run forward. To the right, there is a corridor on fire. Do not go here yet. First run forward and left through the corridor. Soon, you'll hear warning music. Kill the bad guy that attacks. Now, go to the corridor on fire. Go inside, and face and press up against the wall. Begin to sidejump across the corridor. About halfway across, there is a room that you can enter. Go inside. There are some shelves and drawers here. Search through them, and you'll be rewarded with the Uzi. Leave this room, and continue side jumping across the corridor. Now, walk forward a bit, and you can see that you're back in the dining room.
A cutscene shows that some electric cables are dangling in the water. This means that if Lara steps on the floor, she will be electrocuted. However, if you accidentally fall into the water, you won't die instantly. The electricity slowly depletes Lara's health, so you can jump to a table before she dies. You also have to make it to the other side of the room. So, what you have to do is jump on top of the tables to get to the other side. Go to the back right side of the room, and you'll see that the dangling cables are here. Perform a jump into the entrance next to them. You are safe now. You will soon enter a room with more shelves and drawers. A bad guy is in here, so shoot him. Collect the Swipe Card that he leaves behind, and also, collect the Small Medipack from the shelf. Now, leave this room, and return to the dining room. Hop from table to table back to where you came from. You are back in the corridor on fire. Side jump back to the other side. Now, run right. Follow the path and then left. To your left, there will be a door that can be opened with the Swipe Card. Do that, and go inside. To your right will be a corridor. You can't go here yet since there are dangling wires that will electrocute you. At the end of that hallway is a door that can be opened with a key. Keep that in mind. For now, run to the end of the hallway, and climb up the ladder, and follow the path. To your left is another room that you cannot go into. There are dangling wires that will electrocute you. There are many items to collect here. You can come back later when you shut off the dangling wires. For now, keep going straight. You are now in a room that is flooded with water, and there are some tables. At the back of the room is a small bridge and two closed doors. Run all the way to the back of the room, and open the closed door on the left. Go inside.
A cutscene will ensue, and Lara meets Admiral Yarofev. He is wounded, and he is no longer Lara's enemy. He is willing to help her. After a while of talking, Admiral Yarofev gives Lara the Silver Key. Notice that there is a ladder to the left of the Admiral. You will go up there later. For now, leave this room, and go back to the room with the small bridge and the tables. Run across to the other side of the room, and stand on the blue table on the left. You can see that there is a metal grating in front of the table. Jump up, and shoot the grating with your pistols. Now, you can go inside. Stand at the edge of the blue table, and perform a standing jump and grab. Climb inside, and begin to crawl to the right. Follow the path, and you'll come upon a trapdoor. Stand at the edge, and press action. Lara will grab it and open it. Jump down inside. Look to the wall opposite the shelves. You can see a high voltage switch that is high up on the wall. Go below the switch, and jump. While in midair, hold down action so that Lara will grab onto the switch. She will pull it down. By doing this, you have shut off all the electric wires that prevented Lara from going into the rooms.
Crawl back into the vent, and make your way back to the room with the small bridge. Somersault out, and leave this room through the hallway. Don't go back to Admiral Yarofev yet. Once out here, go into the first room on the right. The electric cables have been shut off, so walk freely around. There is some Desert Eagle ammo and the Nitrogen Canister all the way at the back of the room. The Nitrogen Canister looks like a yellow container. It is on top of a platform. There is also a Large Medipack at the front of the room. Once you have collected all these items, leave this room, and climb down the ladder. Go forward and take your first left into the hallway. Run all the way across and up to the door with the keyhole. Use the Silver Key here, and go inside. You are inside a conference room, and there are cabinets on both sides of the room. Walk up to all four cabinets, and search through them. You will get the Oxygen Canister and a Small Medipack. Leave this room, and go down the hallway. Two bad guys will attack you, so shoot them. One of them drops the Bronze Key after you kill them. Collect the Bronze Key. Now, make a left through the corridor, and make a right into the water-filled hallway. Run to the corridor on fire, and side jump across. You're back to the dining room. The electric wires have been shut off, so you're safe now. Run past two dining tables, and make a left. You're in the kitchen. Collect the Secret from the floor, and leave this room. Go back to the corridor with fire, and side jump across. Make a right, and follow the path. Turn left into the door with the Swipe Card. Go straight and up the ladder. Run across into the room with the small bridge, and jump onto the blue table. Perform a standing jump and grab to the air vent. Climb inside, and crawl right. Jump down through the trapdoor, and use the Bronze Key at the door with the keyhole. Go inside, and get the Secret from the drawer. Now, run back, and hop back into the vent. Crawl through, and somersault out into the room with the small bridge.
Run back to the room with Admiral Yarofev. Once you're in here, climb up the ladder, and you're in the escape pod. Place the Nitrogen Canister and the Oxygen Canister in the slots on both sides. Once you've done that, a cutscene will automatically take place. Lara will climb down the ladder and tell Admiral Yarofev to come with her. He refuses, but Lara insists. Admiral Yarofev is adamant about staying, so Lara accepts. He says that the outer airlock can only be closed from inside the ship. He will help here to escape, and this is his gift to her. Yarofev asks Lara to tell his story to the world. He wants Lara to tell the world of the sacrifice he made for his country. Lara accepts. She climbs up the ladder and says, "Goodbye." |
