Chapter 4-1 Part 2
Resident Evil 5 HD Walkthrough S-Rank Chapter 4-1: No Damage
Begin heading to the left of this treasure chest. Before you leave the next small room though, break the basket/torch. Inside is an Emerald (Pear). It won't take long for the game to takeover in cutscene form. Sheva is incredibly annoying throughout the game and messes a lot of things up, so it will come as no surprise whatsoever that she'll cross a stone bridge without you, only to see it crumble, separating the two partners. Oh well! When you regain control, head forward and to the left, grabbing the goods from the two vases you encounter. Then, head to where the bridge once was, and drop down. When you head leftward, you'll finally encounter the first substantial zombified resistance of the chapter. These enemies can be dealt with conventionally, but you'll want to single out their archers, since they are dangerous with their ranged attacks. Also, enemies with shields can easily be blown-through with a shotgun blast or grenade chuck.
After this wave of foes is felled, grab the Green Herb nearby and continue forward to a staircase leading upward. Sheva is nearby, so if she's equipped with anything useful (which frankly, she shouldn't be), she's probably too busy wasting ammunition to join you at your current location, even though she easily could. So, expect to work your way up the stairs on your own. You'll deal with more archers and shielded enemies, so quickly toggle between your pistol and shotgun-of-choice to take care of the enemies in the best way possible. Also -- and this goes without saying at this point in the game -- be sure you grab whatever items are dropped by enemies as you go along. When you reach the top of the stairs, deal with the final wave of foes as you head rightward. It's at this point that Sheva can reconnect with you.
With the two estranged teammates reunited, head into the first room you encounter, which should have another large stone treasure chest that will require both characters to open. You'll find a Sapphire (Square) and Sapphire (Pear) on top of a pile of gold within this chest. After collecting your booty, head into the adjacent room. You'll find a Green Herb in an open chest, some ammunition in a jar, and a Ruby (Pear) in the grasp of a skeleton in a standing sarcophagus. Another Sapphire (Pear) is in the torch beside it. Head back out into the corridor hereafter. Heading forward, you'll come to the other side of the bridge where your partner was earlier stranded. Head to the right from here, where yet another large stone treasure chest sits. Once the partners open it, however, they'll find that it springs open a trap door underneath their feet. Be sure to pay close attention to the fall, since to land it successfully, you'll have to follow through with a button press or face certain death.
As soon as you land, draw your gun and get ready for a prolonged battle in close quarters. You're in a plus sign-shaped location, directly in the center of it. Running down one path will allow you to continue with your mission, but first, you're going to want to make absolutely sure you deal with the heavy contingent of enemies that come here to greet you and grab the valuable treasures around you as well. Begin by calling your partner to your side and running down into one of the three dead-end corridors nearby. With your back against the wall, chances are you won't be flanked, so all enemies in the area will need to come at you from the front. Amongst the thick contingent of Majini, you'll also be dealing with pesky Bui Kichwa. Also keep in mind that a handful of downed Majini will turn into Cephalo, so if you have Flash Grenades on you, now's the time to use them. The good news is that when this huge enemy force is downed, you'll be able to grab the numerous goods they've dropped. You'll also be able to help yourself to the goods from the three treasure chests at the end of each dead end before proceeding down the fourth path. You'll find a Ruby (Trilliant), Sapphire (Trilliant), and Emerald (Trilliant) to add to your horde of treasure.
With treasure in hand, head down the only pathway that will allow you to continue with your mission. This will bring you to a wide open room full of hostile enemies. If you act swiftly, you can break out your sniper rifle and initiate hostilities with your foes before they even know you're there. Aim for headshots (of course) for the cleanest kills, and focus on the bow-wielding enemies before their defensively-postured friends, equipped with shields. That way, you eliminate the threat of ranged attacks right off the bat. You'll only be able to get a shot or two off before your enemies realize you're there. This won't only spring into action the foes around you that you've yet struck, but it will also encourage movement from behind the scenes. In other words, the enemy force already there will be supplemented with reinforcements almost immediately. Keep that sniper rifle rocking, blasting through enemy heads. Shielded enemies can easily be killed by waiting for them to turn their backs. Remember that any enemy you aren't able to eliminate will jump up and greet you up close and personal. Switch to your pistol when this happens to nullify the remainders.
