A platoon of Red Army soldiers hunts ghouls in the Siberian forests. Sgt. Sergei Pavlovich and Lieutenant Nikolai Zakharov raise concerns that the men are too dispersed, but the Major dismisses their worries. Following a bloody victory, Scout Okchen finds the decomposed corpse of a fallen Secret Police agent, Boris Grishin. Grishin's notebook describes "Operation Hades", an attempt to summon ghouls to fight for the Red Army. However, the summoners failed to control them and are killed. Sergei wishes to use this information to get rid of the ghouls, but Zakharov fears it would expose the government's past errors. As they locate a burrow, Okchen, and another soldier, Pogodin ready munitions to seal the ghouls' nest, but the blast instead opens the entire burrow. The horde is larger than expected, so Zakharov orders a last stand, commanding his son to relay a message to bombard their current location to kill the horde. The ghouls kill the whole platoon by the morning, but planes fly over them and begin carpet-bombing the site.
