Deus Ex: Human Revolution Hints
How can I use the security code?
1 of 7: Go to the SW side of the central structure (directly across from where Zhao's being held) to find a dedicated terminal.
2 of 7: Use it to enter the security code (2012), then click on "inactive."
3 of 7: This will screw up the computer's defenses and cause the glass shield protecting Zhao to crack. Unfortunately, it'll also cause some zombies and robots to be released.
4 of 7: As soon as you finish using the dedicated terminal, sprint up the stairs toward Zhao's shield, then crouch down next to the slanted wall that's to the left of it.
5 of 7: Wait until the shield cracks, then start hitting it with the heaviest weapon you've still got ammo for.
6 of 7: It'll take a lot of damage to shatter the shield. Hopefully, none of the zombies or robots will home in on you before you can manage it.
7 of 7: After the shield is gone, target Zhao directly until she dies.
