Containment Control Starts With the Umbrella
Chapter 357: hate
"General Ostrovsky! I want to ask about the civilization of the Reapers!"
"General! Do you Umbrella have any other truths that have not been announced?"
"General!"
After hearing Andre’s remarks, the reporters and representatives who had been sitting in their seats all stood up and asked Andre for more detailed content.
"Everyone!" And the veteran didn't seem to give any face to the ‘booze’ guys, his face was flat, and with a voice that could overwhelm everyone present, he said sharply:
"Give me quiet! Don't you know the quality of the venue?!"
"..." (x N)
Seeing a veteran who was not angry enough to be angry, suddenly the chaotic meeting place became extremely quiet, people also sat in their seats one after another, raising a hand to represent wanting to ask questions.
"..." Andre was silent for a few seconds before his face recovered.
Then the veteran glanced around at the crowd, and finally saw a female reporter sitting on his left hand side that was more pleasing to the eye, and raised his hand to the female reporter, slowly speaking:
"This lady, it's up to you to ask me questions first."
"Thank you General." The female reporter stood up, looked at Andre and asked:
"General, I would like to know whether those giant mechas belong to your Umbrella company or UNSC? Or are they jointly developed by the two parties?"
"Hehe." At this moment Andre just chuckled and replied:
"Madam, you have to know that when our company's giant mech was established, the UNSC did not yet exist, so it is impossible to be a joint venture between the two parties.
As for your first question, that is, the technology of the giant mech is unique to Umbrella, and the mech can only be bound with our company's super soldiers.
So, I can tell you clearly that the Giant Mech only belongs to us Umbrella. "
After confirming that the mecha belongs only to Umbrella, most of the people present changed their voices, because it means Umbrella has a military strength that surpasses the UNSC.
But...
There are also many people who are used to it. After all, Umbrella announced five fleets a few years ago, and each fleet has an endless-class warship as its flagship.
The firepower of an Infinity-class warship alone can crush the three UNSC fleets, not to mention that there are five Umbrella ships, and the Infinity-class warship is not alone.
Therefore, according to public data a few years ago, Umbrella has a military strength comparable to that of the UNSC.
What's more, 80% of UNSC's armaments, and even more of its armaments, come from Umbrella.
"General..." The female reporter slowed down and continued to ask questions:
"You are just a company, but you have a formal military organization, and you also have your own fleet. You still have ‘superhuman’ soldiers and giant mechas...
It can be said that the military strength of your company has completely surpassed UNSC, then we need to worry about your...
Yours…"
At this point, the female reporter was a little confused because she was afraid to point it out publicly.
"Are we dictatorship?" But Andre said it nonchalantly, and said with a more kind smile:
"Don't worry, everyone, if we want to engage in authoritarianism, we had this capital ten years ago.
But our Umbrella’s corporate mission is ‘people-oriented’, and our boss has expressed this mission through various news media and programs a few years ago.
It is precisely because our company has a technological level far surpassing all countries in the world, that is why we have to lead the world to ‘step forward’, and we are also secretly protecting all mankind.
As a famous saying in the Marvel comics acquired by our company, ‘the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility’.
If this is not enough to convince everyone here, then let me give you the simplest example, that is, if we want to engage in dictatorship, why would we sell space battleships out?
right?
And as early as more than ten years ago, the United Nations, which was the predecessor of UNSC, and Umbrella, both confirmed the existence of extraterrestrial civilization.
Since there are common enemies in the race, humans should not fight in their nests. On the contrary, they should work together to protect the earth and the colonies.
And what Umbrella and UNSC are doing now is to protect humanity. "
Faced with Andre’s remarks, no one could refute it.
Because what Andre said is the truth, the most direct way to dictatorship is not to sell various high-end technologies and weapons.
"So..." Immediately afterwards, Andre looked at the female reporter again, and asked in a calmer tone:
"Any other questions?"
"No...no more." The female reporter shook her head, and then sat back in her seat.
"General." Another middle-aged reporter immediately raised his left hand.
Andre also put his hand to the middle-aged reporter and said, "Please speak."
"Thank you General." The middle-aged reporter stood up, looked at Andre and said:
"What I want to ask the general is that in the video you played to us earlier, the Spartan soldier who had undergone military training and surgery...
At what age did he enter your military base?
And you don’t think that a child who is in his early ten years away from his parents, carries out military training day and night, and gives them this...this kind of transformation operation that goes against the will of God.
Will your conscience not be condemned? More importantly, this is already against the law. "

...
"Huh?" William, who watched the live broadcast on the Infinity, saw this kind-faced ~lightnovelpub.net~, but the unforgiving reporter exclaimed:
"Good guy, even God moved out."

...
Andre, who was standing on the podium at this time, had the same idea of ‘pro son’ in his heart, and was more radical, but he didn’t show it too much on the outside.
"Hehe." Andre still chuckled, staring at the middle-aged reporter and said quietly:
"Let’s put aside God and talk about the law first.
Umbrella will train and teach these genetically matched children after soliciting the wishes of their parents and children, and also provides a large amount of financial assistance to the family. The children have vacations every year to be with their parents. We reunited.
The nature of our Umbrella army is a private army. What's more, there is no evidence that these children joined our army when they were minors. You can compare that military base to a boy scout training camp.
In addition, when the children were undergoing the operation, they were all over 18 years old. If I don’t believe it, I can directly call up the files at the time.
and also! "
As he said, Andre’s tone changed suddenly, his eyes were full of disdain and he looked at the middle-aged reporter in a deep voice:
"The parents of the children and the children themselves have not complained about anything, but you, the beneficiary, are here to worry about others.
Put it more vulgarly, take care of your business, be boring, right? "
