Time: July 6, 2024.

Location: Low Earth Orbit at the dock.

As an outpost supply station in the solar system, thousands of warships of all kinds gathered at this time.

There are Umbrella and UNSC battleships, frigates and aircraft carriers, as well as various supply ships and medical ships, as well as civilian colonial ships similar in number to the expeditionary force.

Civilian colonial ships vary in size and shape.

After all, since Umbrella shared how to make large airtight hulls, and began to sell ships and jump engines, various tycoons and companies have rushed to develop their own colonial teams, which has led to the vast majority of colonial ships being different.

Of course…

It is precisely because of the existence of the UNSC that the tycoons, enterprises, and companies can build and colonize various planets like countries.

It is also the most typical product of the East India Company during the colonial wave of the 17th century.

However, the difference is that there are no other civilized races that can be enslaved by these companies, enterprises, and the wealthy.

When the expeditionary force and colonial fleet arrived in the low-Earth orbit of the dock, the various supply spacecraft on the dock also began to supply warships and colonial ships.

At the same time, Wang Zhaofeng, the supervisor of the engineering team stationed on the dock, also led the engineering team to overhaul various ships and warships to avoid unnecessary accidents.

Suddenly, another jump exit emerged, the flagship aircraft carrier belonging to the Umbrella containment fleet.

Immediately afterwards, a Pelican flew away from the aircraft carrier's belly hangar and flew towards the Infinity in the center of the expeditionary force.

———————

The endless number soon.

In a conference cabin.

On a standard U-shaped table, William in military uniform sits in the main seat. Sitting on his left hand side are Andre and Mike who also wear general uniforms.

On the right hand side, Ivan in the uniform of a lieutenant officer, and Halsey in a female suit.

Serena, wearing a female military uniform, still stood quietly behind William, always ready to assist her boss.

In this conference room, Umbrella’s Olympus board, a lieutenant general in charge of the company’s ground forces, and...

And the kid who sat in as a'son'.

"William." Andre, who is the most prestigious and William's'father', first asked:

"Now that you have solved the bastard Yuri Brett Marin, what is the next company goal?"

"Haha." William chuckled habitually, then poked his elbows on the tabletop, crossed his left and right hands, and looked around at the crowd.

Said: "The first is how to resettle the Hozette-4d aboriginals of these 18 million people.

According to the information collected by Serena, it can be known that as colonists, most of them sold assets on the earth and used them to go to a new environment for a new life.

Moreover, the people of Hozett-4d have been enslaved by Yuri, and there is no excess deposit in their hands.

So...this is a refugee of 18 million people."

"..."

Hearing that, everyone present was grim, especially Mike.

As a former U.S. Marine Corps lieutenant general, Mike certainly knows what refugees represent.

confusion.

For example, the United States had planned many wars in the Middle East over the natural resources there, resulting in the emergence of millions of refugees.

These refugees will naturally choose to smuggle to a safer Europe, which has also led to a certain period of terrorist threats in Europe, such as the mass shooting in Paris, France.

Later, Canada hosted 20,000 Syrian refugees in 2015, leading to a certain number of terrorist attacks in Canada.

Therefore, reaching a certain level of refugees is a very dangerous thing for the entire human society.

Not to mention the refugees of 18 million people.

Even a giant with big business like Umbrella can't afford so many people, let alone UNSC, which was repeated by Yuri Hoho.

Halsey also sighed with a sad expression: "It's really impossible. We can collect them as D-class personnel. If we don't pay them but give them food, we can still afford it."

"Um..." After hearing Halsey's words, Ivan, who was sitting next to her, suddenly muttered with a slightly embarrassed expression:

"Mother... 18 million D-class personnel, what do you want to do?"

"Haha." Halsey said with a wry smile, placing his left hand lightly: "Just say it casually, don't take it seriously."

"D-class personnel..." William seemed to be inspired by Halsey, and after thinking for a few seconds, he asked Serena standing behind him:

"Selena, help me screen the number of suitable laborers among these refugees."

"Yes..." Selena, who was given the order, had her pupils faintly radiant, and selected laborers of the right age from more than 18 million refugees.

After half a minute.

Serena's pupils resumed as before, and she reported quietly: "Boss, there are about four million refugees in the labor force.

In addition, there are about 10 million old and weak women and children among the refugees, who are related to these 4 million suitable laborers."

"Very good." William nodded lightly, and continued to order Serena:

"Send the list of suitable laborers to the Marine Corps, and let these four million laborers sign a non-disclosure agreement and work contracts for the engineering team.

Turn these four million laborers into the main force of our Umbrella engineering team.

then…"

As he said, William looked at Halsey and said with an'innocent' smile: "Then I will trouble you, Catherine."

"Trouble me?" Halsey raised his left finger and pointed at himself, wondering: "What do you want me to do?"

William didn't mean to trick Halsey on purpose, and continued: "I want you to design a drawing."

"Drawing... what drawing?" Halsey had a bad feeling.

"It's very simple." William still smiled faintly: "I want you to design a dome city that can cover the entire surface of Mars, so...

We don't need to spend a lot of money to research and transform the geological activities of Mars, and we don't need to research and develop Mars to generate a high-intensity magnetic field.

We only need to use the resources of the asteroid belt or other galaxies to build a super giant dome city that can cover the surface of Mars.

As for the drawings of this city, you need Catherine to be responsible."

"..." After hearing William's words, Halsey's face stagnated.

Then she raised her hands and rubbed her temples, and said helplessly: "Hey...well, who made me a'doctor'?"

"Haha." William just smiled at his wife's complaints, and then said to Serena:

"Tell Wang Zhaofeng that the labor of these four million people has been handed over to him, and let the engineering team prepare a large amount of building materials as soon as possible. After waiting for the doctor to design the drawings, they can quickly build on the surface of Mars as soon as possible."

"Yes, boss."
