OP. LEGITIMATE UNDERTAKING TERMINATED. EMERGENCY SITUATION IN TERMINID QUARANTINE ZONE.

Several weeks ago, the Helldivers activated the Terminid Control System on the Barrier Planets: Erata Prime, Fenrir III, Meridia, & Turing. Since then, the Termicide produced by the TCS has kept the Terminids at bay. However, the TCS is no longer functioning as intended: Terminid outbreaks have erupted on all Barrier Planets. The bugs are displaying resistance to Termicide, something our top scientists previously believed impossible.

The situation on Meridia is even worse. There, Terminid reproduction rates have exploded overnight, and continue to increase exponentially. The planet is already almost fully infested, having formed into a super-colony. While the exact mechanism for this hyper-reproductive adaptation is unknown, it appears to be linked to continued Termicide exposure. So far, this effect is limited to Meridia. It cannot be allowed to spread.

Operation Legitimate Undertaking has been placed on indefinite hiatus. Meridia is unsalvageable. The Helldivers are ordered to deactivate the Terminid Control System on the remaining Barrier Planets immediately before this catastrophe can spread beyond our control.
