Containment Control Starts With the Umbrella

"…"

Looking at the file presented by the holographic projection, William thought silently for a moment, then waved his hand and agreed:

"Then do as the Doctor suggested.

(Looking at Serena who is standing in the center) Serena, organize the artificial intelligence on Earth to delete the relevant information of Kepler 22-b.

Then notify the generals and officials of the UNSC, so that they must abide by the containment protocol and prohibit unrelated ships from going to the star field where Kepler 22-b is located. "

"Yes." Serena, who was standing in the center of the U-shaped table, nodded lightly, and then conveyed William's instructions to the various ministries, as well as the UNSC generals and officials.

"Okay." Halsey stood up at this time, looked around at the officers and staff present, and said in a low voice:

"The matter about Kepler has been decided. Everyone should be busy with their own affairs first. I have something to discuss with the boss privately."

"Yes." The employees and Serena obeyed Halsey's instructions and got up and left the conference room.

"Click-!"

When the door was closed by the last person, the huge conference room was silent.

Halsey just stared at William so quietly, expressionless, and said nothing.

"." William, who was stared at by Halsey, had numbness in his scalp, and his whole body felt weak.

"Cough..." He shrugged and coughed deliberately, "That... Catherine, what do you want to talk to me about in private?"

Halsey still ignored William. She left her seat and walked to William who was sitting at the front of the U-shaped table.

He looked down at William who was still sitting in his seat.

"Guru!" William, who was afraid of Halsey's madness, surged his Adam's apple, and then quickly raised his right hand to assure:

"Catherine, I will never take the initiative to participate in containment operations in the future. Don't worry, I have a long memory this time!"

Suddenly, Halsey snapped like a taut string.

"...you just come back..."

She didn't cry or make trouble, she just sat on William's lap with a choked sob, leaning on William's arms and said softly:

"Umbrella can't live without you, I, and the children, can't live without you, so I'll leave the containment operations to John and Myron.

okay?

Otherwise, why did we go to great lengths to build so many Spartans? Right. "

"..." William also put away his half-joking face, and the landlord took his wife like a 'strong woman'.

In fact, through Andre, he had already learned about the chaos of the Zero Fleet at that time. If Halsey quelled the scene, it might have really had a great impact on the company.

William couldn't imagine that a woman who had always been engrossed in scientific research suddenly lost her pivotal husband. While worrying about her husband's comfort, she also needed to pretend to be calm to maintain order.

"Don't worry..." Thinking of this, William said from the bottom of his heart: "I swear I will never participate in containment operations casually again.

It's time for those children in the first and second phases to have a better space to play. "

"Well, it's good that you know."

…

The brief disappearance of William and Serena was only known to the Zero Fleet and a small number of employees, and was gradually drowned in the company's past.

William himself stayed on Mars for half a month, dealing with the daily life of the company, and also enjoying the scenery of the city of Mars with Halsey.

At night, William had a profound understanding of what it means to be a "little better than a newlywed".

A little kidney deficiency.

Afterwards, William and Halsey returned to Earth on an aircraft carrier containing the fleet under the arrangement of Andre.

As for Serena, as well as the Spartan red and white teams, they stayed on Mars and waited for the return of the Zeroth Fleet.

On September 31, 2018, Hafa time, the Zero Fleet completely dealt with the things on Kepler 22-b, and took back Serena, the red team, and the white team waiting on Mars.

Serena re-hosted the Infinity as commander of the entire fleet, directing the Zeroth Fleet to continue patrolling the solar system.

Of course, the 'angel' who only obeyed William's orders, as well as the fruit of life obtained from Venus, was escorted to Hafa by the blue team led by John.

Angels and the Fruit of Life are temporarily "kept" in the hive, and the team led by Halsey and Rebecca continues to study these two anomalies.

The BLU team did not return to the Zero Fleet, and the three Spartans stayed at the sea view villa in Hafa.

After all, Hank, who has been in charge of the protection of William's family for nearly ten years, has been promoted to the dean of the Ghost Academy, and Alpha has also become the instructor and mentor of the ghost agent.

Therefore, the task of being responsible for the security of the William family is handed over to John, Carl and Myron, and the blue team can always act as the rapid response force of the earth.

In order to stop worrying about Halsey, William was going to completely take a back seat and handle the company's affairs at the Sea View Villa. He could usually take care of the two 'bear' children Yelena and Ivan.

…

Shortly after the company's owner, William Russell, and the company's chief researcher, Kathryn Russell, returned to Halfa City, violent civil wars broke out in Syria, Iraq and other Middle Eastern countries.

Due to the previous interference and interference of a certain "big power", the political and military systems of these countries have become extremely chaotic.

Coupled with the establishment of the UNSC, the decision to promote the integration of human beings, and the promotion of hydrogen engines and nuclear fusion technology, oil is slowly being replaced.

And so on, it is completely shaking the personal interests of some long-established corrupt officials, warlords, and extreme politicians in the Middle East.

There have been growing conflicts within these countries, and even party struggles that have lasted for years.

Finally, on October 3, 2018, the Middle East countries were once again plunged into never-ending war and chaos.

The UNSC, deployed all over the world, began to mobilize troops to Saudi Arabia, Egypt and other places, preparing to wipe out the large-scale rebels that appeared for the first time since the establishment of the UNSC.

However, the UNSC, which has the support of fleet firepower, cannot take advantage of low-Earth orbit bombing.

Because the rebels occupied cities, towns, villages with large numbers of civilians.

In addition, the rebels also took advantage of the racial and cultural gap to deliberately discredit UNSC and other propaganda policies, brainwashing local civilians to support the rebels.

In the face of such a large number of 'hostages', the UNSC simply cannot effectively use its heavy firepower to strike.

Under the pressure of public opinion and other aspects, the UNSC had to send ground troops to prepare for street battles with the rebels in cities and towns.

This time, what the UNSC has to face in the Middle East is no longer terrorists with simple equipment, but rebels with mechanical skeletons and individual armor.

The leaders of the rebels were all warlords, politicians and financial groups from various countries before they openly rebelled. Whether it was through regular channels or the black market, they could obtain weapons and equipment no less than or even higher than that of the UNSC.

Moreover, before the promotion of Umbrella's hydrogen engine, the most important thing in the Middle East is oil and money.

Therefore, the first large-scale civil war of mankind was not a distant colony, but broke out on the earth.
