Containment control starts with the umbrella

"what??"

Ivan couldn't believe what he heard.

However, Xia didn't show much fear after seeing William, who looked similar to Ivan, but stood quietly behind Ivan to observe.

And Ivan looked at his father and asked again: "Father, what you just said... let me protect Shia?"

"Yes."

William raised his hand and patted Ivan's left shoulder, and said earnestly: "Before the church is completely eradicated, this girl is in danger of life.

And you and her look like people of the same age, so the security work is left to you."

"But father..." Ivan still asked slightly puzzled:

"Even if the Light Star Church is very powerful compared to other organizations, but... compared with our Umbrella, it's not as good as an ant.

As long as she is in the base..."

"Ahem!" William gave a heavy cough, interrupting Ivan to continue speaking, and said in a tone that cannot be rejected:

"Okay, kids don't ask too much, just obey your dad's orders."

"This...yes." Ivan nodded and agreed.

Immediately afterwards, William waved his hand lightly and turned to leave.

He also told: "Ivan, you and this girl will stay at the Athens base for the time being. Your mother and I need to return to the Phantom to discuss matters concerning the extermination of this church."

Seeing his father returned to his former boss appearance, Ivan also immediately promised: "Yes, father."

"Yeah." William nodded and walked away before disappearing into the corner of the corridor.

Seeing William leave, Xia asked, "Is the man just your father?"

"Ah, it's my father and the most powerful person on earth." Ivan nodded.

"That's it..." Xia whispered to herself again: "I feel like a father...it must be good."

…

William keeps the Guardian Company led by Hicks and Hudson and Hank's Alpha at the Athens base to protect Ivan and the anomalous Shia.

Then he and Halsey boarded the Pelican and returned to the Phantom, which was hovering over the Athens base.

After the Pelican entered the hangar and stopped, the Phantom lifted off and went to low-Earth orbit to join the containment fleet.

———————

…

After half an hour.

Europe followed the rotation of the earth into the dark side, and the whole continent was completely plunged into the night except for a little light.

In low-Earth orbit, operating simultaneously with Europe are two containment aircraft carriers and the much smaller Phantom.

And a Pelican, painted in dark gray, left from the belly of the Phantom and flew to the aircraft carrier not far away.

In the cabin.

William was sitting closer to the cockpit, while Halsey was left on the Phantom by him to accompany the frightened Yelena.

Also accompanied by the Spartan Blue team, all three of them have replaced Thor's hammer armor.

But when they were not in combat, the three Spartans did not wear helmets, but put them on the seats beside them.

At this moment, Myron's facial expressions were no longer the usual silly looks, but rather serious and uncommon.

It's even a bit hideous.

Myron drew a long saber from his calf and played it in his hand, matching his current look, as if trying to smash someone.

Seeing what Mellen looked like, William asked Karl who was sitting not far away: "Karl, what's wrong with Mellen?"

"Boss, the attack in Venice seems to have frightened Yelena, and Myron often plays with Yelena. Myron always says that Yelena is his sister.

So... Myron may be the believer who wants to teach those rays of light."

"That's right." Myron looked up at William, his eyes also revealed a rare killing intent:

"Boss, if you find the specific location of those guys, please let our blue team also attack."

"Boss." John also rarely echoed Myron and said: "I also agree with A-003's proposal."

As for William.

When he saw his daughter crying, he had already pronounced the death sentence on the Shining Star Church in his heart, and of course he would not refuse the two's requests.

Then he nodded and said: "Okay, then the airborne troops will be led by you."

"Yes, boss." (x3)

"--."

At this moment, there was a little noise from both sides of the fuselage.

It means that the Pelican has reached the decompression chamber of the aircraft carrier and is fixed by the robotic arm.

After a while, the door at the rear of the cabin was also opened by the pilot, and William led the three Spartans to the hangar outside the cabin.

Leave the Pelican.

William saw Andre with an angry face, leading several USSs wearing biochemical armor, standing not far from the Pelican waiting for him.

He guessed with his toes, and he knew that the veteran guarding the calf also wanted to give the Shining Star Church alive.

"General."

"boss."

The two simply saluted each other and went to the combat meeting room of the aircraft carrier together.

———————

…

Combat meeting room.

In the very center of the cabin is a center console similar to a bridge, and a map of Europe is displayed on the giant screen.

Several lieutenant officers in military uniforms, Andre and William, and three Spartans surrounded the center console.

And an artificial intelligence equipped with a prosthetic body, standing at one end of the center console, with his pupils emitting a faint blue light, explained to everyone:

"Everyone, based on the description provided by the girl codenamed'Miko', it can be inferred that there are three locations that match the location of the Shining Star Church where she was held.

They are Corsica, Sardinia, and Sicily."

While speaking, the three islands presented on the screen were marked by her with red circles.

He continued: "According to the investigation of the agents and the data analysis of our artificial intelligence, it is concluded that a deserted castle in Corsica is most suitable for various characteristics.

Several senior agents have hidden near the castle, confirming that there are multiple heat sources inside the castle, and there are also multiple armed guards armed with guns outside."

"Um..." Andre looked at the marked Corsica and said to the artificial intelligence:

"Tina, inform the UNSC to announce that the special command is about to conduct live fire exercises in the woods of Corsica."

The artificial intelligence named Tina nodded respectfully: "Yes, General."

Then Andre looked at a group of officers and ordered: "Everyone, perform an orbital airborne in fifteen minutes to catch this bug parasitic in the dark."

"Yes, General." Everyone saluted him, then left the meeting room and went to the equipment room to change combat equipment and weapons.

"call!"

Andre looked at the leaving officer and Sparta, deflated, and said solemnly to William standing beside him:

"William, you know I'm holding back the anger of wanting to launch a hydrogen bomb! The cultists actually scared my baby Yelena!"

Hearing this, William couldn't help but shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Well, Andre, Yelena is not as serious as you think, it will be fine in a few days.

Don’t use hydrogen bombs, and you have to change your temper."
