Several subjects were literally trampled by their peers." - The beginning of the experiment After several days strange metamorphoses started to occur: hair loss, heightened aggressiveness. No changes were detected in the first few days.
↑ "A week ago it was decided to increase the intensity of radiation on the test subjects. What's interesting is that the parts were destined for another lab with the codename X16 and it's probably a secret one too."- Strelok's note in the PDA I found some documents.I didn't understand much of what was written in there except that they contained technical specifications for some components for Kaimanov emitters. Lab X18 wasn't fun.and its current residents.I didn't think things like that existed. The report meticulously describes the mutation of living beings following exposure to emissions.\nThese documents must not fall into anyone else's hands, as they would be of great interest to USS analysts." - Report on study of samples The samples were subjected to informational field effects of varying intensities. ↑ "The report details the study of biological samples sent from lab X18. If you revisit the lab after you took the documents, more Snorks can spawn here, and the Pseudogiant can spawn again too. This is because no map exists of the area. While the location of X-18 is beneath Dark Valley, on the PDA it's depicted as an above ground location close to the Red Forest. Two secret stashes - ( one containing a Night Star). AKM-74/2 fitted with a Grenade launcher. "Documents from X18, Part 3", that the Barkeep requires. A Fruit Punch anomaly in what appears to be a pool of (corrosive?) chemicals. A Comet anomaly in the same room as the Burner anomalies. One Pyrogeist in the room with the documents. X-18 also helped in the creation of the Brain Scorcher, which is located in the Red Forest. Borov was always too afraid to enter the lab after locking it, thus it remained locked until the Marked One unlocked it, using the keycard he recovered from Borov after killing him. īorov, the bandit leader in Shadow of Chernobyl, discovered that the door may not have been locked, he then proceeded to lock it, keeping what treasure may be inside safe for him to collect at a later date. Few survived, many died from shock, while others were at the mercy of the Poltergeists. Later, Stalkers began venturing into the laboratory for any treasures that may remain there. Eventually, their experiments reached them through the piping, and killed them off.
#Walkthrough mutation the visitor returns series#
The surviving staff members locked themselves out of the main hall by a series of large coded doors. The end of the laboratory came when, after receiving too much radiation, an experiment broke out and destroyed most of X-18 (it did this by opening all the other containers and releasing the previous experiments). The experiment was considered a success and led to experimentation on larger creatures. The final experiment concerned the use of new psi-emissions on test subjects, which ended with their brains roasted. The security team had to respond with force, suffering minor wounds. In one heinous instance, two dozen test subjects broke out and vandalized the main experiment area and forcing the researchers to lock down the lower levels. Security incidents took place, as the aggressive subjects were prone to causing damage when prompted to by researchers or security guards. Thus, the second stage of the experiment with a new modulation of psi-emissions was authorized. Bursts of seemingly random activity were present, but not directed at their peers, leading to speculation on an increase in intellect.
Eventually, subjects stabilized, with only 10% of their hair remaining and substantial growth of claws and teeth. In one of the last experiments, mutations involved hair loss, aggression, etc. Mutations of living beings following exposure to these emissions is meticulously noted. It was set up in the wake of the 1986 disaster. X-18 is a laboratory that was used to study the effects of psychic radiation (based on the informational field, noosphere) on living cells using Kaymanov emitters.
