Containment Control Starts With the Umbrella

In the airborne preparation cabin of the aircraft carrier.

I saw that the troops gathered here and preparing to wait for an orbital assault were no longer hell paratroopers, but heavy marines equipped with CMC.

The heavy marines wearing CMC power armor reached an average height of more than two meters.

The weapons they are holding are no longer the traditional pulse series of the Marine Corps, but the Gauss series with strong penetrating ability.

The overall painting of the armor is mainly dark gray, and the shoulder armors on both sides are printed with the logo of red and white umbrellas, typical of Umbrella style.

One hundred and twenty heavy marines, in groups of three, boarded a large airborne compartment specially designed for them.

The three members of the Spartan Blue Team also put on their helmets and also boarded the large airborne cabin.

When the entire combat crew is ready, the robotic arm on top of the cabin starts to operate, placing the airborne capsule on the slide rails.

The cabin begins to decompress.

The door in front of the slide rail opens.

Swish-!

Forty-one large airborne capsules ejected instantly, left the aircraft carrier and came to space, and fell towards Europe in the early morning.

…

Corcassia Island.

It is a large island in the Mediterranean Sea, an affiliated island to the south of France, 170 kilometers away from mainland France.

But Corsica is only about 100 kilometers away from the east coast of Italy.

The island has a large area of ​​nature reserves, forests cover a wide area, and sparsely populated.

The reason for the distribution of agents in proportion to the population has led to Umbrella's deployment of fewer agents on the island, mainly in towns along the coastline.

The agents paid no particular attention to the forest in the central part of the island and several abandoned castles.

After all, there are thousands of castles in Europe, some of which can be bought for only a few euros…

Of course, if the buyer can afford the high maintenance fee, then he can experience the aristocratic life of the Middle Ages.

What's more, most of the ancient castles are built on cliffs, cliffs and deep forests, and only a few ancient castles with better geographical locations have been converted into tourist attractions.

And deep in the forests of Corsica, a giant castle is standing in it.

It is built on top of a steep hill with only one entrance to the south.

And the passage of this entrance and exit is overgrown with shrubs and weeds because of the inaccessibility of people.

In front of the entrance to the castle is a rusty gate, and on the left is a warning sign written in English, French, and Italian.

From the outside, all the windows of the castle are sealed, and it only feels that it has been completely abandoned.

But this is only for ordinary people.

For the agents hiding in the woods on the south side of the castle, it cannot be said that they can see it all at a glance, but they may also discover the clues of the castle.

In the mask imaging of the agent's individual soldier system, there are looming figures on the city wall at the top of the castle.

Judging from the outline, each figure is holding a gun, so it can be judged that these people should be armed guards.

It seems that this is a base of the Light Star Church, and because the plundering mission of Shia failed, the castle has also strengthened its vigilance and seems to be preparing to evacuate.

The agents lurking here, their main task is to monitor, waiting for the arrival of the Heavy Marine Corps and the Spartan Blue Team.

Soon, the internal communication of the agents' helmets came with John's reminder:

"Agents, please stay away from the target as soon as possible to avoid accidental injury."

Hearing the reminder, all the agents looked up.

I saw forty-one meteors in the sky, falling towards the position of the castle.

Upon seeing this, the senior agent in charge of the surveillance mission immediately got up and replied, "Yes."

Then several agents got up one after another, no longer considering the hidden factor, and used the mechanical skeleton to quickly retreat down the mountain.

Shortly after…

"Boom-! Boom-!"

A large airborne tank capable of carrying three heavy marines smashed into and out of the castle, causing billowing smoke to rise directly in this area.

"Click-! Click-!"

The three warehouse doors of the airborne warehouse were bounced open, and three heavy-duty marines equipped with CMC power armor jumped out of the warehouse with their exclusive large-caliber Gauss guns.

The three heavy-armed marines ran towards the entrance of the castle, completely ignoring the trees that were blocking their progress, and directly 'rampage' using the power armor.

Just over ten seconds after the airborne warehouse landed, a large number of heavy-armed marines gathered on the road leading to the castle.

The castle was also attacked by four airdrop pods, including the airdrop pods that the three blue team members were riding in.

The warehouse door pops open.

John and the others immediately left the airdrop compartment, and led nine heavy-armed marines to the interior of the castle.

.

"Cough! Cough!"

The armed guards on the city walls were choked by the smoke rising everywhere.

Several of them saw John and others entering the castle, and just wanted to use the walkie-talkie on their left shoulder to warn, but…

"Tattoo!"

"Pfft!"

But with the gunshots of the spikes coming out of the chamber, these people and other guards were 'dismembered'.

After all, the gauss gun is a high-penetration weapon that is only used when dealing with anomalies that are difficult to contain. Umbrella rarely uses it on ordinary humans.

Similarly, pulse and plasma gun systems are not recommended for use against humans.

Because it's too brutal.

But the Church of the Light Star has individual equipment that is no less than AAES I, so he has to choose heavy marines and Gauss guns to deal with it.

but…

The more reason is that the father and son of William and Andre don't want to stay alive at all, so they use the most brutal way.

It didn't take long for the armed guards around the castle to be wiped out by the heavy armored soldiers who were not of the same level.

Several Pelicans also appeared in the sky, carrying technicians and recovery troops, flying to the castle to prepare for landing.

——————

at the same time.

The blue team and the nine heavy armored soldiers have already broken into the interior of the castle, and there is no escape wherever they go.

On the visor of John's helmet, the upper left corner shows a pulse-scanned castle structure, and the motion detection function also marks possible enemies.

During the communication, Cortana's voice said: "Master Chief, it has been detected that there is a large space under the castle, and the indicator has been generated on your screen."

Since Cortana is still in charge of affairs aboard the Phantom, she doesn't accompany the BLU team, but she can still provide support for the BLU team.

John replied quietly, "Okay."

Then, John led the crowd, following the directions given by Cortana.

During the journey, John also found that the interior of the castle was well maintained, and the internal passages were clean and bright.

But apart from those ordinary mercenary guards, they did not encounter the elites who attacked the church.

"John, it seems that the group of transformed soldiers, as well as the things that the Church of Light Star wants to cover up, are all underground in this castle." Carl analyzed.

"It doesn't matter where it is." Myron said, still full of anger, "Give me death."
