Go through the large gate nearby to have easy access to the prior area, and along the way,there is a locker in which players can instruct Ashley to hide inside to prevent any danger to the companion. Once nearing the darkened lab,the target can be spotted along with two other formidable buddies.
This enemy of note is like a cross betweenthe Regeneradorand an Iron Maiden, identified by its spikes and armor, and has a body full of parasites.That is the key to defeating this enemy, with the Biosensor equipped on the Stingray weapon the best bet to making this fight an easier affair.
From the window, aim and use the Biosensor to pick off the parasites one by one, and when the enemy comes too close for comfort, get into the lab and cross over to the room on the other side and repeat the process. There is also the alternative of taking care of the other two enemies first so that the full attention can be on the target. There is no way of the creature attacking Leon unless they are in the same room together, so keep that in mind, and things should come to a conclusion quickly.
After defeating the strange corpse, backtrack to where Leon went through the wall and take the elevator up. Findthe Merchantand turn in the request for a reward of 8 Spinels, which will always come in handy throughout the time spent in the game.
