About C1 South Distribution Centre
This distribution centre was set up with the aim of delivering resources and other cargo to Ciudad Nudo del Norte (Cl) and surrounding prepper outposts. It is not intended to be a place for civilians to live. It comprises facilities for its delivery and support staff, as well as infrastructure for
Cargo management.
Administrator: Benjamin Rivera

Before he started working at the distribution centre, Benjamin was involved in medical anthropological fieldwork, where he observed and treated the symptoms of a number of different patients. He was interested in how the changes brought about by the Death Stranding were affecting people’s bodies and minds.
The knowledge Benjamin gleaned from his fieldwork proved useful when the first Bridges expedition arrived in Mexico.
Ever since the UCA was fully connected to the chiral network a year ago, the environment has been unstable. There have been earthquakes, sudden floods, and spikes in chiral density. Fear of BTs is also putting people on edge, straining them further. Benjamin believes that it is necessary to expand the chiral network and develop new technologies to put people’s minds at ease.
Benjamin’s medical background has also allowed him to contribute to the development of blood grenades. The grenades can now be mass-produced by synthesising the blood of DOOMS sufferers.
Rewards: C1 South Distribution Centre
Each Knot City and Shelter has a five-star reward system, granting rewards and upgrades with every star reached. Gain more reputation by delivering goods. APAS firmware upgrades, bandwidth increases, and Material Allotment increases are granted with every star reward. Shelters additionally offer Sam a place to rest at the 5-Star level.

1-Star Reward
Blood Grenade Lv1

Hand-thrown explosives developed for use against BTs. Their contents have the same potent effect as Sam’s blood.
The grenades will explode on impact to release a cloud of vapour that hangs in the air, damaging any BTs caught within it.
Since DOOMS blood can now be artificially synthesised, blood grenades can be mass-produced using chiral printing. They have not, however, enabled ordinary porters to easily dispatch BTs, as there remains no way of accurately identifying a BT’s position.
2-Star Reward
EX Grenade

A hand grenade developed for use against BTs. Their contents have the same potent effect as Sam’s bodily fluids.
The grenades explode on impact to release a cloud of vapour that hangs in the air, damaging any BTs caught within it.
Since DOOMS bodily fluids can now be artificially synthesised, EX Grenades can be mass-produced using chiral printing. Despite their effectiveness, however, many porters decline to carry them, preferring instead to save space for other cargo.
3-Star Reward
Blood Grenade Lv2

Hand-thrown explosives developed for use against BTs. Their contents have the same potent effect as Sam’s blood.
The grenades will explode on impact to release a cloud of vapour that hangs in the air, damaging any BTs caught within it.
Since DOOMS blood can now be artificially synthesised, blood grenades can be mass-produced using chiral printing. They have not, however, enabled ordinary porters to easily dispatch BTs, as there remains no way of accurately identifying a BT’s position.
4-Star Reward
Assault Rifle [MP Bullets] Lv2

A fully automatic weapon effective at any range. It is equipped with a light and can be switched between semi and fully automatic modes.
It is highly versatile and can be loaded with different types of ammunition to suit the situation. Be sure to check what kind of ammunition you have loaded before pulling the trigger.
There are several different models of assault rifles in circulation, all available in a range of colours.
The upgraded version has a faster rate of fire and a fitted grenade launcher, making it better at suppressing enemies and adapting to a range of battlefield conditions.
