MSI GS40 swollen battery removal

Anduin
Go to solution Solved by IronSoldier,

It has one plug and is stuck down. So you'll need a non sharp but thin lever to slide under the battery and break the glue. 

Hello guys, my MSI GS40's battery is swollen. I want to remove it but I don't really know how, I thought that I just unscrew the screw and it will pop out but it seems a bit more complicated. If anyone have the same laptop and removed their battery or has the knowledge how it's done could you share it? :) I tried to find a tutorial or something but had no luck. Here's a picture of it, any help will be appreciated!

I only see the one cable going to the battery, is it glued in or something?

I tried to pull it out (the battery) but it wouldn't move. Maybe I should apply a little bit more force?
