Annotated Codebook
You find an annotated codebook. Reading it over, something piques your interest.
Perusing this codebook for a few minutes reveals several intriguing things. This codebook accesses some type of weapon system buried deep away in a hidden Council complex just below Paragon City. The original owner of the codebook was smart enough to break the book in two, but not smart enough to keep the part that had the location of their hideout written down.
Getting your hands on the other half of that codebook could wind up being a big windfall. With the full codes in your hands, it's entirely possible that you could find whoever has the codes then access the weapon's system from there to use!
Further perusal of the notes show that this weapon is extremely unstable, however. A weapon like that could cause more damage than it's worth. Perhaps it might be better if you destroyed the codes so that it doesn't fall into worse hands than yours.

Villain Acceptance
You've already gotten ahold of one half of the codes to access the weapon system, but you'll need to get the other half. It's no big jump to think the owner will have it in his or her possession.
Once you have the codes and the info in your possession, then you can move on to bigger and better plans - like blowing up anyone who dares to get in your way!
- Find the owner of the codebook, get the codes and whereabouts of the complex.
Since you already know where the hideout of the codebook owner is, there's no need to waste time. Go there and find the spy and make him or her tell you what you need to know.
Unnecessary Solicitation
Go find the person who is holding the other half of the codebook!
Mission Objective(s)
You'll have to find whoever has the other half of the codebook first. With any luck, the key to controlling the weapon's system will be here was well.
- Find the other half of the codes to access the weapon!
- Find the owner of the other half of the codebook!
- Access the Council Weapon's System!
It's a shame that you couldn't get more use out of that weapon's system, though this will leave both Longbow and the Council hurting for some time.

Debriefing
You can see some smoke rising off in the distance - smoke from the destroyed Longbow Cruiser.
You look at the current news to see that the PPD are trying to contain an explosion within Brickstown - which is where this facility must have originally been.
Rogue Acceptance
After re-reading what this weapon is capable of, you're not too sure you'd be around if this thing goes off prematurely. Sure, it could put you in pretty high standing within the Rogue Isles, but if something goes wrong you just might get blown sky high. Or worse yet, someone else could cause it to go critical. It's best if this was out of everyone's hands.
The only way to do that would be to find the other half of the codebook and use it to shut down the weapon's system.
- Find where the codes are kept and destroy them before real damage is caused!
Since you already know where the hideout of the codebook owner is, there's no need to waste time. Get over there and find where he or she is keeping the other half, then use it to shut down the weapon's system for good.
Unnecessary Solicitation
This won't exactly earn you any money, but it'll ensure that you're not blown up in the future while earning money.
Mission Objective(s)
The owner of the codebook will likely have kept it secured inside a safe container. You may have to destroy the container to get the codebook, as well.
- Shut down the weapon's system!
- Find the owner of the other half of the codebook!
- Access the Council Weapon's System!
With the weapon's system destroyed, you've ensured that this is one more thing that won't get in the way of your future dealings.

Debriefing
You were able to shut down the weapon's system and avoid Longbow bearing down on you.
Just as you managed to get clear of the base, a large fleet of Longbow stormed in. That'll lead to some big problems for the Council - fortunately, none of it will lead back to you.
