Containment Control Starts With the Umbrella

Chapter 60: 'exercise'

  Coordinates: 4°S, 55°E (British Indian Ocean)

  Name: Minos.

   From the sky, Minos still looks like a tropical island.

   covers a large area of ​​virgin forest area for Spartans to survive in the wild, and there are training facilities such as barbed wire on the white sand beach.

   is surrounded by the blue ocean.

   If it were not for the base buildings on the west coast, the island would look more like a resort.

   The Minos at this time has been re-planned by Halsey, and it is no longer the ‘simple’ and ‘unchapterless’ as half a year ago.

   There are more laboratory-like facilities, and a freezer room dedicated to storing T virus and serum.

   The Osprey carrying the Spartans has steadily stopped on the high platform of the apron and is being maintained by the ground crew.

  ...

   Inside the command center of Minos;

   The layout and layout of this command center is similar to that of other Umbrella military bases, but with fewer people and equipment.

   and the personnel responsible for manipulation and contact are selected from the USS and UBCS of the island.

In the center of the    command center, there is an electronic table with a giant screen.

   Halsey in a white coat is debugging something at this table.

she was…

   seems to have changed back to the original ‘sloppy’ appearance.

   The black short sleeves in the white lab coat were tucked into loose black pajamas by her hand.

   The light blonde long hair that I would take care of before, just got a ponytail.

   Maybe she would only dress up in front of William.

  .

   "唰——"

   "Doctor, is there anything important?"

   As the automatic door opened, Kent's voice came from behind her.

   turned around and saw Kent rushing into the command center with 14 Spartans and surrounding her.

"Yes it is."

   Without saying any extra words, Halsey directly uses the touch screen to open the electronic desk.

   The screen lights up.

   Presented in front of everyone is a satellite plan.

   In the center of the picture is an extremely backward desert city, which is also the hub of three highways in the east, west and north.

   There is also a description of the file on the far right of the display.

  Time: October 12, 2007.

   Location: Dadaab (Dadaab)

  Content:

   At 06:17 today, the Umbrella military base stationed in the grasslands of Kenya sent a convoy to Lamu Port to obtain supplies and food.

  The goal is to provide regular humanitarian assistance on the border between Kenya and Somalia.

  The fleet consists of 20 security personnel, 20 drivers, and 20 medium-sized trucks.

   At 07:45, the convoy was ready to load cargo.

   At 08:31, the convoy's necessary route to the border was blocked for unknown reasons.

   After reporting the situation to the base, the convoy turned around and tried to find another route.

   At 08:55, the convoy passing through the city of Dada was attacked by no less than 6,000 refugees, including a large number of armed men.

   At 08:59, the last security guard lost contact with the base.

   It has been confirmed that all personnel of the transport convoy were killed this time.

  .

  .

   After reading the contents of the file, Kent frowned slightly, and looked at Halsey across from the electronic desk, wondering:

  "Doctor, African refugees often rob food.

   One more thing, the convoy at the Kenya base was attacked and should be resolved by their dispatch of troops.

   What does this have to do with Minos? "

   "Of course it matters."

   Halsey walked slowly in front of John, glanced at the super soldier he had built, then looked at Kent and asked in a low voice:

   "Major, let me ask you, how is Sparta's combat capability now?"

   "Combat ability?"

   Kent looked around Sparta, and replied thoughtfully:

  "Spartan now has endurance, physical strength and strength beyond ordinary people.

   If you have more actual combat experience, it will be a perfect killing machine...

and many more…"

   Without waiting for Halsey to explain in person, the major guessed her intentions and said:

   "Doctor, do you mean to let Sparta participate in this event?"

   "That's right."

   Halsey patted John's right forearm and asked with a kind smile:

   "John, if you are asked to assassinate the leader of the militants, then... do you have the confidence to complete the task?"

   John first looked down at Halsey, then looked up at his surrounding teammates.

   Karl smiled and nodded lightly. Myron grinned and gave a thumbs up. The rest of the Spartans also expressed their support.

   Then John deliberately raised his chest and said calmly: "We are confident, Ma’am.

   As you taught us, nothing can stop Spartan’s pace. "

   "Good boy."

   Halsey's answer to John was not surprising at all.

   Then, she came to the electronic desk again, sliding her slender hand on the touch screen.

  The content on the display was replaced by Halsey.

   Switch from the original satellite thumbnail to a close-up image taken by a drone at high altitude.

  Dadaab’s city center has only a few high-rise buildings, most of which are brick houses or simple houses made of iron sheets and wooden sticks.

   Trash piles and weedy streets can be seen everywhere.

On the outskirts of    there are a large number of tent-like cloth sheds.

   The people here are skinny, as if they can break them with a kick, and the clothing is just a piece of cloth covering their private parts.

   compare with it.

   The city center is called rich, UU reading www.uukanshu.com is not too much.

   Anyway, the people in the city center have all kinds of clothes, and there are even many cars from the 1960s and 1970s.

   "Everyone."

   Halsey put a smile away, and said solemnly: "Dadaab has a population of about 490,000, of which 350,000 are refugees.

   In Dadabu, whoever controls the food and water sources controls the right to kill here. "

   Halsey said, sliding his finger on the touch screen.

  The screen is updated.

   I saw the content of the new picture display, which is a luxurious manor with swimming pool, villa, garden, and a large number of militants.

   is in sharp contrast with the dilapidated simple houses and brick houses outside the wall.

  The most conspicuous thing is that the manor is neatly parked and there are twenty trucks with red and white umbrella logos.

   See here.

   John held the table with both hands, leaned forward, carefully observed the manor and asked: "Madam, is this our goal?"

   "Yes." Halsey explained to everyone:

  " Through the collection of various materials from the Kenya base.

   A warlord named Glad Mehamud, carrying his troops, fled from Somalia to Kenya four months ago, and took full control of Dadaab half a month ago.

   The reason for the escape and the attack on Umbrella is unknown.

   The Kenya base speculated that it was due to the food shortage caused by continuous operations, which made Mehamud set his sights on Umbrella.

  嗬~"

   Halsey smiled contemptuously: "The reason is unknown, um...it seems that this little warlord still has some secrets.

   But, I really want to thank him.

   can give my Spartans a chance to have a drill. "
