The chat doesn’t last long before you’re encouraged to go downstairs.Head down and confront Pacoin the makeshift arena.
Speak to the guy tobegin a fistfight with him. The battle is rather easy since Paco’s strikes are slow and easy to avoid, while he’s not too good at avoiding your blows.
Once you’ve pounded him into submission, talk to him againto end this section.
Protect The Convoy
When you’re back in the present day, Paco does a bit more talking beforeoffering you another hit of whatever drug he’s using. Accept his offer tocontinue to the next section, where Hansen and Paco are riding in a truck.

After a short chase,you’re forced to get out of the vehicle to deal with more scavengersthat have turned up.
The game equips you with a throwing knife for this bit. Yet, you can switch back to the powerful pistol if you desire. With the pistol and you’re hefty health bar, it’s pretty easy toeliminate all the scavengers.
This will leaveone wounded enemyleft.Approach him and then talk with Pacobefore returning to the present.
