Secrets

 * 1) Open the wall with yellow skulls around it and notice that the barrels make an arrow towards the left wall. That wall functions as a lift. Take it up to reach a hallway leading to the west section of the map. (sector 107)
 * 2) In the large area at the west section of the map, drop into the nukage and use the wall with squares to lower it. Go along the path all the way until you find a soul sphere on a block. (sector 106)
 * 3) In the large area at the west section of the map, go all the way to the south end and open the door there. Head east, back to the arena, then to the ledge with armor bonuses to the north. Open the north wall to get a chaingun. (sector 75)
