Graveyard

You find yourself in a sideyard. Get the four barrels here, then unlock the door and exit.

There is a cutscene where a horde of villagers enter the graveyard, obviously unhappy that you have completed your mission. Ashley will point out a cart full of barrels, so shoot it and it will burst into flames and roll down the hill, taking out most of the villagers. Take care of the remaining villagers.

There are two boxes in the shack to the east, and bird's nests have respawned over the path back to the village dropping a Spinel and Handgun Ammo.

Church (optional)

If you want a bit of extra challenge, go back into the church. Saddler is gone but the archers are still there so immediately lead Ashley into the left hallway and park her there. Then defeat the archers; it's best to snipe the first one from behind a barrier where the second one can't see you. Be aware that they are crack shots so good timing will be helpful. One of the archers drops 5000 PTAS while the other should replenish the ammo that you used.

Tunnel

The Merchant now sells a powerful new Handgun named Red9 and a stock for it. It takes up two more squares than than the one you have now, but the extra firepower may make it worthwhile. The stock takes up three squares. Get the box midway through the tunnel and climb the ladder at the end. Make sure Ashley is out of the way, then shoot the lamp over the trapdoor for a Spinel. There is a barrel here and a box in the next room. It's probably a good idea to save while you're here.

Village (night)

Immediately lead Ashley right and into the tower, then climb the ladder. Get the Spinel as long as you're here and park Ashley for the time being; it seems that the villagers won't be able to find her here.

Now drop down and start hunting villagers. There are fewer enemies this time but now they have a chance of sprouting parasites. You don't have to get all of them but it will help if you're going to be looking for goodies. You can probably get a few villagers coming for you at the base of the tower; fortunately they din't seem to be organized enough to attack all at once. Most of the villagers will be in the north and east, though there will be one in the barn. Use your rifle scope to try to spot them before they see you. The path to the farm is littered with bear traps, so be sure to search carefully and disarm them. Note that Ashley can get caught by them and she'll take a lot of damage it she does, so it's better to be safe and disarm as many as you can find. Note that the gates to the area where you started the game and to the chief's house have been boarded up permanently.

When the villagers are gone, get the items that have respawned since the last time you were here. Items to collect are:

  • Boxes in the building in the southwest corner.
  • Box on a table next to the north path
  • Boxes and a barrel in the building northwest of where the bonfire was
  • Barrels on the first floor of the building northeast of where the bonfire was
  • TMP Ammo in a cupboard on the second floor of the same building
  • Barrel in the building southeast of where the bonfire was
  • Box and barrel behind the door in the same building
  • Box in a building in the northeast corner
  • Box on a table in the south courtyard

Note that chickens are now gone from the game, so no more eggs.

When you've done everything here, collect Ashley and go through the northeast gate to the farm.

Farm (night)

Command Ashley to hide in the red container, and head into the nearby hut. Break the barrel, read the document, and save. Exit the hut, and shoot the enemies on the elevated walkway. This will draw out an enemy from the barn, so take care of him, and head for the house. Take care of the two enemies here, knife the bear traps, and climb the ladder. Move along the walkway where the two enemies were, and get the attention of the lone enemy on the ground. When he tries to climb the ladder, shoot him or slice him with the knife to knock him off. Once he's dead, drop down, knife the bear traps, enter the small hut, and break the crate and barrel in here. You can't open the large doors without Ashley, but before you call her over, be sure to search the entire farm for items and treasures. When you're done, call Ashley to have her rejoin you, and piggyback her over the doors so she can unlock them.

Cabin

Sell any treasures you have to the Merchant, and tune up as much as you can. Walk along the bridge to get an unsettling message from Hunnigan, and walk to the end to trigger a cutscene. For fans of the original Dawn of the Dead, this will be a familiar scenario. Push the bookcases in front of the windows, and collect items around the room. The bookcases will buy you some time, but they will eventually break through. Luis lends a hand with his own Red9, and will occasionally throw you some ammo, or a recovery item, so stay close to him. Try to avoid headshots to avoid fighting too many parasites, and use the Shotgun to thin crowds when necessary. Just be careful not to hit Luis - if you shoot him three times, it's Game Over. When Luis says, head upstairs, and knock down the ladders to keep from being overwhelmed. Back into the far end of the room, and use the Shotgun to keep the enemies at bay. If needed throw a Hand Grenade to take out large numbers of enemies, and Flash Grenades to instantly kill any parasites. Once you have killed enough enemies, they give up, ending the battle and the chapter.
