Containment control starts with the umbrella

Halfa time: September 17, 2018.

At this time, it has been six Earth days since the reconnaissance force led by William came into contact with the anomalous phenomenon code-named "Shadow".

After receiving instructions, the military engineering in the outskirts of Hafa began mass production of silver ammunition, which was transported by a frigate of the First Fleet led by Athena.

The frigate arrived in Kepler 22-b low-Earth orbit on September 14 and transported silver ammunition for ground forces.

As a person who needed to participate in the war, Athena was ordered by William to stay in the operation base station, waiting to participate in the containment operation soon.

The frigate responsible for transporting ammunition made another jump on September 15 and returned to the first fleet stationed in the solar system.

From the 11th to the 17th, the engineering team belonging to the Zero Fleet was not idle.

The engineering team dismantled the four Pelicans and a large number of Warthogs, and passed through a narrow tunnel through the gate to the planet considered to be a desert for reorganization.

At the same time, the engineering team disassembled three assault MS and a special MS, and transported them to the desert planet for reorganization.

This is one of the reasons why the ammunition has arrived for three days, but William has not yet issued a containment operation.

------------------------

…

Location:'Desert Planet'.

At this time, the Pyramid, which had a gate exit and was about to be swallowed by yellow sand, had been transformed'unrecognizable' by the Umbrella engineering team.

The engineering team used their unique'stunts' to make a simple transformation of the nearby landscape and built a mobile base station around the half of the pyramid.

Inside the base station are the assembled Pelican, Warthog, and four mobile suits, as well as several simple buildings for combatants to garrison and rest.

Operational conference room of mobile base station;

Dozens of lieutenant-level and school-level officers in Umbrella uniforms, three members of the Spartan Blue team, and specially invited Athena were sitting on folding chairs, obeying the next combat instructions.

As the boss, William, and his secretary and assistant Serena, stood at the front of the combat meeting room.

Although this mobile base station is too simple compared to other bases, it is still equipped with necessary equipment, such as holographic imaging devices.

An image of a planet emitting a pale yellow light,'floating' in the combat meeting room.

Serena put her hand to the planet and explained: "After the four Pelican lift-off reconnaissance, it is concluded that the boundary we are in is still an earth-like planet.

It is located in the habitable zone of the star system. The ocean area is about 64%. It has a large amount of seaweed to produce oxygen, and the southern continent has a large area of ​​rainforest.

As for the star system it is in is not in the Milky Way, it belongs to an extragalactic galaxy, and it is a position that the transition engine cannot reach."

With that said, the image of the rotating planet stagnated and focused on a large area of ​​desert in the northern hemisphere. The green dot marked by Serena was the area where they were.

The area framed by black on the south side of the green dot is the abandoned city that the previous investigation team entered.

Continue to look to the south, and see an area indicated in red.

"Everyone, after the Pelican's scanning and reconnaissance of the entire planet, an apparently abnormal phenomenon...'building' was discovered.

Please see."

Holographic imaging gathers and enlarges the red area, finally showing another abandoned city.

In the very center of the city, there is a group of meat that occupies nearly one third of the size of the city.

This is why when Serena said the word'architecture', her facial expressions were a little uncomfortable.

Through the detection equipment carried by the Pelican, you can clearly see the street scene in the city and what the meatball is.

I saw a large number of'shadows' gathered in the city, and they seemed to wander aimlessly.

Of course, there are still many'human beings' in dilapidated clothes, dragged by these shadows to the giant'meat mass'.

Those human beings after that were pressed on the ground by a large number of shadows, and then the shadows took out the hearts of those people out of thin air.

Out of thin air, it didn't cut a person's chest, nor did it use brute force to dig it out. It was taken out of thin air.

The heart was thrown into the'meat ball' by the shadow, absorbed and merged.

While the shadows took out those human hearts, the'fleshball' was still producing new shadows continuously.

It seems that just as William had guessed, this anomalous phenomenon is somewhat similar to SCP1983, using the heart and light to reproduce.

Despite seeing such scenes that ordinary people can hardly understand and tolerate, the facial expressions of the officers, Spartans and goddesses present have hardly any fluctuations.

Because they guessed at least that the giant'meat ball' was the source of the abnormal phenomenon.

Then just destroy the source.

This is the first thought of everyone here

Playing the document of the complete video, Serena continued and said:

"According to the information provided by the boss and the doctor, destroying the giant meatball can completely eradicate this abnormal phenomenon.

All of you here are the elites in the company, with beliefs that ordinary people don’t have, so...

(Look at Athena sitting behind)

Therefore, one of the first prerequisites for combat is to pray to Athena in your heart so that you can kill the'Shadow'."

Everyone nodded silently.

For everyone, this condition can be described as simple.

It may be difficult to make them look like a vain god, but Athena, who is also a god, is sitting behind them alive and is still a'colleague'.

Immediately afterwards, Serena took out a spike bullet from her military uniform pocket and said:

"Because of the characteristics of these abnormal phenomena, only silver physical ammunition can be used to effectively kill those shadows.

Therefore, it is not recommended that you use plasma and beam weapons."

Having said that, Serena glanced around at the crowd and said, "Are there any questions?"

"Yes." A lieutenant colonel looked at the A4 computer in his hand and asked:

"Our ground forces are responsible for containing the'shadows' and rescuing the indigenous people on this planet as much as possible. What about the source of the anomaly?"

"Don't worry about this." William, who has not spoken, answered the question of the lieutenant colonel for Serena:

"These days I have been on standby, just to allow the engineering team to assemble and deploy the MS.

So the source of that thing is solved by driving the mobile suit with the blue team and the goddess Athena. You only need to ensure the safety of the natives as much as possible.

Any question?"

"..." Everyone shook their heads.

"Very well, now pass the order to your subordinates, and prepare to act in half an hour."

"Yes." All the officers stood up and saluted, and then left the combat meeting room.

John also led Carl and Myron, leaving the combat meeting room to change the combat uniforms driving the assault MS.
