Containment control starts with the umbrella
Chapter 361
"This…"
The middle-aged reporter did not expect that Andre would dare to be in front of many media and directly come back.
Obviously, this reporter didn't know yet. In fact, Andre was already a face-off without getting angry. After all, Andre was a veteran who had participated in countless wars.
"General, did you say that..."
"Shut up." Before the middle-aged reporter continued to refute, Andre directly raised his finger to the reporter and interrupted:
"Just now you said that you violated God's will, so let's talk about it now.
In the video played before, the Mr. Smith once said personally that since God made his children special, there is a reason for existence.
Even this little Smith was born to be destined to be the'Spartan' that protects mankind.
If God really exists, is the Smith family given this mission?Let their children become super soldiers and fight to protect humanity?
And the fact is right there, who was fighting the monster a few days ago?Isn't it these Spartans driving giant mechas?
Talking about a little longer, who frustrated the invasion of the Reaper civilization in the first place?
Isn't it also these children?
Without this group of children, you still have the opportunity to tell me here, what we Umbrella is doing is against morality, against law, against conscience?
Ok?!"
"amount…"
Hearing Andre came back angrily again, the middle-aged reporter finally had nothing to say, and finally sat down with a flushed face in shame.
At the same time, the online comments have changed from the original polarization to the side that supports the Spartan forces.
Indeed, as Andre said.
Without this group of Spartan super soldiers, then humans would have ceased to exist more than ten years ago. Then, where will they have the opportunity to continue to "spray people" on the Internet?
As for the reporters and representatives in the venue, because of Andrei's stubborn words, they no longer dared to ask questions at will.
Because no matter what Umbrella did right or not, the result is here. Without Sparta, there would be no human beings.
"Cough cough." Andre coughed slightly, breaking the uncomfortable tranquil atmosphere first, and then glanced around at the crowd again and said quietly:
"So, do you have any questions?"
"..."
"..."
"General." At this time, only a younger male reporter raised his right hand and asked:
"What I want to ask is, now... now you Umbrella, are you still continuing to secretly recruit children in their early ten years, training and transforming them to become Spartans?"
"Yes." Andre did not deny, but quickly explained:
"But it's no longer the children in their early ten years. At the end of last year, our company's biotechnology made another breakthrough.
It is possible for young people aged 17 and 8 to inject corresponding drugs in a short time and undergo remodeling operations when they are 18 and 19 years old, and they can also become super soldiers.
However, these new generations of super soldiers are weaker than the early Spartans, and their unit code has also changed from Spartans to'Astarte'.
More importantly, the conditions for recruiting Astarte have been significantly reduced, and the genetic requirements are no longer extremely strict."
"General..." Upon hearing this, the male reporter asked again:
"Does this mean that you Umbrella can be recruited on a large scale? Are these super soldiers code-named Astarte?"
"Yes, and according to our company's arrangement, the original plan is to announce the existence of super soldiers at the beginning of next year when the first batch of Astartes formally form an army, so as to achieve mass recruitment. aims.
However, the attack of the giant beast caused us to announce this plan in advance."
With that said, Andre looked at the cameramen in front of him, and said with a rare smile:
"As I told you before, Astarte's requirements are not harsh, so Umbrella welcomes young people who are willing to become super soldiers at any time."
------------------------
…
The office cabin of Endless.
On the computer screen, the footage of Andre’s interview is still being broadcast live, and the veteran and the reporters and representatives of various parties are no longer confronting each other as before.
And the discussion content in the comment section...
"Let me go! According to the old general, it is possible for ordinary people to become super soldiers?"
"If it meets Astarte's recruitment requirements, it should be possible in theory."
"Does it have to be a young man of 17 or 8?"
"Is there any hope for a 25-year-old social animal like me?"
From the initial differences in concepts between the two sides, now they are discussing with each other about joining Astarte.
Men, they all want to be a "different" person, otherwise they will not be in the second two, dreaming that they can save the world and become a superhero.
So in the face of the temptation to become Astarte, it is naturally impossible to resist.
Although from time to time someone will say that the behemoth may be an original species on the earth, or the truth of the zombie incident, and the hell messenger that appeared in Egypt, etc.
But after all, there are still very few people, and Serena and the artificial intelligences must have locked the positions of these people.
Although Umbrella’s agents and USS cannot modify the memory of all human beings, a few people are more than enough.
As William expected, once a more powerful truth is revealed, it can instantly attract most people's attention.
What's more, this Umbrella not only throws one out, but also announces the recruitment process of Spartan Phase II and the news of Astarte's public recruitment.
Enough for the general public to react for a while.
The recruitment and training process of Spartan Phase I, but one of Umbrella's top secrets, will not be made public at any time.
In addition, the clones who replaced the first-period children died due to various genetic defects a few years ago. In theory, John, Carl, Myron and others are'dead'.
I am really sorry for the children in the first period, and the parents of the children.
But with the first phase of Sparta as a buffer, enough time for Umbrella to cultivate and train the second phase, otherwise the earth and humans will not be destroyed, and the 50 million death toll will have to be multiplied by one. ten.
As for William, who watched the live broadcast, he shook his head and smiled lightly: "I don't know if the old man is behind the improvisation, or Serena helped him prepare the lines."
Then he saw that the incident had been resolved almost, so he closed the web page of the live broadcast room and stopped paying attention to the press conference.
He got up and left the office cabin and walked slowly to the air corridor on this floor.
William leaned against the railing in the corridor, watching the crew and engineers walking down the lower deck, as well as the Marines on duty.
Looking at the open scene, I can finally relax my body and mind. I shouldn't encounter any major events in the short term... right.
