"Woohoo~! Come with me to get a burger, John!"

"Keep your voice down."

As soon as the tableware was placed on the table, the cheering Mylon pulled the helpless John out of his seat.

Looking at Mylon's expression, it seems that he will never give up until this buffet goes bankrupt.

Instead, Karl sat opposite William, blinking her unique yellow pupils, and asked slightly worriedly:

"Boss, is there anything that's bothering you?"

After all, she has keen vision, but she saw William frowning for a moment.

?

William shook his head, showed a gentle smile to Karl and said, "What can I have to worry about? Go and get what you like to eat, otherwise Mylon will rob it sooner or later."

"Then... okay." Karl nodded.

Then she left her seat and went to choose her favorite food under the surprised eyes of a group of diners.

After all, he is two meters tall, has long white hair, and has light yellow eyes.

Especially women are taller than men, which makes Karl the center of attention no matter where it is.

As for William, after Spartans had left, he looked at the scene of Mars City outside the right-hand window.

And said in his heart: 'System, you said that an abnormal phenomenon is about to appear, can you detect things that have not appeared?'

[Back to the host, it is the person or thing related to this abnormal phenomenon that appears within the sphere of influence of the company under the host.

Therefore, this system can detect that the relevant anomaly is about to appear, and this system cannot detect things that have not yet appeared.]

'My company's sphere of influence? People or things? If the agents found out...Serena should have informed me long ago.'

Then William tried to ask the system: 'System, can you give me a hint?'

[Return to host, Athens.]

'Athens?'

After hearing about this city, William frowned again and said quietly to Serena:

"Serena, is there anything unusual in Athens?"

"Abnormal? There is nothing wrong in Athens. Except for the old president's poor health, there is nothing worth noting." Serena replied.

"Really?" William raised his hand and pinched his chin.

It seems that this anomaly is somewhat special.

Although he believed what Serena said, he was even more convinced of the information and help provided by the system.

The system says yes.

Then there is definitely something special... in Athens.

"Serena, from now on, increase the monitoring of Athens, and then notify the Phantom to prepare for the jump, and head to Earth immediately after I bring the blue team back to the ship." William ordered.

"Yes, boss." Serena's tone was also much more serious.

Time: November 13, 2009.

East Third District Time

.

At this time, Athens, and even Greece as a whole, had long been one of Umbrella's many assets.

However, it was precisely this that prevented Greece from going bankrupt and causing complete economic collapse and erosion.

A city that perfectly combines classicism and modernity, especially Parthenon Temple, which stands in the center of the city and overlooks the entire Athens.

The Latin Parthenon (Parthenon) is the translation of the Greek word virgin (nttapoevwvac), which is also an alias for Athena.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, the city of Athens is filled with tourists from all over the world, coming to enjoy the unique scenery and beauty of Greece.

The streets have been widened and expanded as much as possible, and the shops selling souvenirs on the streets are crowded with people. It seems that they have restored their former glory.

It's just that the police are no longer the ones guarding the peace here.

Instead, they are security personnel wearing dark blue combat uniforms, helmets and masks, and armbands with the Red and White Umbrella logo.

About two years ago, William assimilated all the security at that time into Marine Corps, but the security system was not abolished.

Instead, in cities such as Athens and Hafa that have a high degree of cooperation with Umbrella, they play the role of police to protect the safety of ordinary humans.

As for the location where security is concentrated, it is undoubtedly Parthenon Temple, the most central location in Athens with the largest passenger flow.

Inside the temple.

There is a statue of about ten meters tall, wearing a gold-plated war helmet and long skirt. It holds a human-faced beast with Griffin in the palm of its right hand, and a statue of Athena with a war spear and a wheel in its left hand.

(Idol)

This statue is a replica; the original has been destroyed long ago.

Despite this, tourists still cannot resist coming here to appreciate the 'true appearance' of Athena.

The queue of tourists is like a long snake, slowly 'squirming' towards the temple.

If William were here, they would secretly complain:

"Well, it's like May Day or National Day."

But this also represents the recovery of Greece's tourism economy, which can bring him more wealth.

.

Outside the temple.

"Ah... why are there so many people?"

"Wait a minute, after all, there is Goddess with wisdom and war inside."

"Hey, okay."

People queuing up outside were inevitably resentful, but in order to take photos as a souvenir, they had no choice but to be patient and wait.

Fortunately, since Umbrella took over, he has limited his stay in the temple to prevent some scoundrels from lingering.

If there are still scoundrels who ignore the warning, then the security guards guarding the temple will not mind using "full of goodwill" to ask the scoundrels out.

Inside the temple at this time.

A woman wearing a black sweatshirt and tight-fitting jeans, with a white gauze covering her mouth and nose, was standing directly in front of the Athena statue.

Her long blond hair reaches her waist. Even though she is dressed as above, it is not difficult to see that she has an excellent figure, which is likely to be in the golden ratio.

She also has long eyelashes and sky-blue eyes.

After getting permission from the security guards to move freely, she and the tourists came to the front of the statue.

The difference is that tourists are busy taking photos.

But she just put her hands in her pockets and looked up at the statue, her eyes filled with disgust.

Like...

It seems that I am very dissatisfied with this statue.

Soon after.

Two security guards walked to the side of the tourists and reminded them in a gentle tone, "Everyone, please follow the order and leave in the direction of the exit."

"Ah... so fast."

"Fortunately, I took all the photos that needed to be taken."

Although the passengers were unwilling to do so, they still walked away slowly and in a good manner, allowing those waiting outside to come in as soon as possible.

But the woman just now remained where she was, shaking her head slightly and muttering something:

"Why is it so ugly?"

"Can't we hire some good engravers?"

"Hey..."

Something like that.

On the other hand, the security guard closest to her didn't care about what she said at all, and said in a slightly cold tone:

"Miss, please leave, there are people waiting outside."

"Leave?"

After the woman heard the security guard's words, she turned around and looked directly at him. Her eyes actually glowed slightly, and her long golden hair also fluttered.

He said softly, "Why are you leaving? This temple was built for me."

Upon seeing this, the security guard immediately raised the rifle in his hand, pointed it at the woman and shouted:

"Abnormal phenomenon! Alert! Alert!"
