William is also quite satisfied with the characters in the Fire Spirit gift pack.
For example, James Carter, the legendary captain, has a strong sense of responsibility, dares to fight and take risks, is good at boosting morale, etc.
Umbrella really needs a captain with such rich experience in space to ensure the safety of the fleet.
There is also Artificial Intelligence Serena, who is known as the "venomous tongue" and "black belly". William has a deep impression on her. The most important thing is that she is not weaker than Cortana in terms of function and beauty.
As for Spartan Red Team, William will not make too many comments. He can only say two words...
Good Luck and tough.
Especially when he was playing the second part in Original World, 092 Jerome bought time for Artificial Intelligence Isabelle, and made a killing on the Exiles aircraft carrier.
After completing the mission, Jerome brought Isabelle to Sparta's unique 'Leap of Faith', wearing only Thor's Hammer for the atmospheric descent.
Really landing on both feet.
The only thing that makes William feel regretful is that the legendary sergeant John Fozzi is not included in the gift pack. After all, he was the one who killed a boss-level kamikaze martyr.
Except these.
What also makes William excited is the Colonial Marine Corps equipment, which includes M41A Pulse Rifle and M56 Smartgun.
The M41A is one of the most classic firearms in science fiction movies or games.
The crisp sound of gunfire.
Caseless Ammunition fully loaded with 99 pieces.
The warhead has a trigger fuze, which means the warhead will explode the moment it hits the target.
The 30mm diameter pump-operated Grenade Launcher is hung below.
This firepower is quite terrifying.
And M56.
It is called smart because it has corresponding electronic systems and a robotic arm on its waist.
The machine gunner only needs to move the muzzle to the general position of the enemy, and the system can automatically capture it and control the robotic arm to correct the aim.
Of course, the choice of whether to fire or not depends on the machine gunner's index finger.
If you modify the Individual Equipment from Colonial Marine Corps and add Mechanical Skeleton and Titanium Alloy armor, it will be perfect as a ship-based combatant.
Immediately afterwards, William asked the system: 'System, are there any restrictions on the assimilation options of the colonial army and Blackwatch?'
[Since the host has acquired the characteristic of 'corporate culture', restrictions on loyalty have been lifted.
The requirements for combat strength are as follows;
Colonial Marine Corps:55
Blackwatch Soldier:65
The system funds that need to be consumed are as follows;
Colonial Marine Corps: Five thousand.
Blackwatch Soldier: Fifteen thousand.]
'Yeah, I get it.'
After learning the answer, William sat down on the sofa with his elbows poking his knees, his left and right hands crossing his chin, and his brows furrowed as if he was deep in thought.
Soon after, he said quietly to the system: 'System, how many security guards are there in the company? What is the minimum combat strength?'
[Should the number of people be down to the individual?]
'Okay.'
[Yes, testing...
Security personnel: 33,674.
Minimum combat power:57.]
'Assimilate all security into Colonial Marine Corps.'
[Yes, 168.37 million system funds have been deducted and are being assimilated...
Assimilation completed.]
'Very good.' William nodded.
Security is outdated for Umbrella. The combat power and equipment are only slightly higher than ordinary soldiers, which is far from enough to garrison Containment Center.
And with Warp Engine, Umbrella's focus will be on the colonial project, and security is also not enough to ensure the safety of each colony.
Then William stood up and walked off the platform, and raised his voice and said, "Inform the colonel that the lieutenant general and the doctor will come to the conference hall of the terminal."
"Yes, boss."
In the conference hall a few minutes later;
Standard layout.
U-shaped long table and seats, and a full set of projection equipment.
William is sitting in the main seat. The first person on his left is Andre, followed by Mike who has brought 20,000 people to "invest in shares".
On the right hand side is Halsey who is overworked and unable to hide his fatigue and lethargy.
The chip of Cortana was also placed on the table by William, generating a palm-sized Holographic Imaging, ready to participate in the next discussion.
"Everyone, now that everything at Manhattan is on track, let's talk about the company's future development goals." William solemnly said.
"Boss." At this time, Andre glanced at Mike slightly unhappily and said:
"Is he also considered a member of Umbrella?"
"You're right." Before William could explain, Mike raised his eyebrows and said:
"From today on, my Marine Corps and I are employees of Umbrella, old friends."
"..."
William looked at the two veterans and shook his head helplessly.
Through getting along with each other these days, he discovered that Andre and Mike had a "competitive" relationship when they were young, and they were both his grandfather's favorite subordinates.
Bickering and taunting each other are daily occurrences. Rather than competition, it feels like their relationship is more like bad friends.
"Ahem." William coughed lightly and continued:
"The Lieutenant General is affiliated with Umbrella's A-Class Employee. He leads his 20,000 Marine Corps to be stationed in Troy on standby."
After saying that, William looked at Andre and said:
"Umbrella originally established the highest military rank of colonel, but with the increase in the number of troops and the addition of lieutenant generals, colonel is no longer suitable.
Then Andre, your latest military rank is general, how about you continue to command Umbrella's troops?"
Hearing this, Andre's eyes suddenly lit up, he raised his chest and said proudly, "No problem, boss."
This old and strong man happened to be worried about the issue of military rank, and William gave the perfect answer. He is worthy of being his 'own son'.
As for Mike, he has no objections to this decision. After all, everything has a first come, a first served, and the person who raised William was none other than Andre.
"Very good." William also smiled at Andre.
.
Then he asked Cortana to use the projection equipment to explain Project Heading Dawn to everyone. The main purpose was to make the newly joined Mike mentally prepared.
When Cortana finished explaining, William returned to his solemn expression, looked at Mike and said in a deep voice:
"Lieutenant General, all Marine Corps under your command will take off together with the six warships as the main combatants of the fleet."
"Yes, boss." Mike nodded.
Andre, who knows William best, asked instead, "Boss, the company's future development goal... is to focus on space?"
"Yes." William said seriously without denying:
"Umbrella's expansion around the world, that is, on the earth, has reached saturation. Solar System is the next main target, which is Colonization Plan."
