Soon.
Flying Formation carrying William easily obtained the right to fly through the special passage, passed the dome entrance very smoothly, and entered the Mars' atmosphere.
As the height from the ground decreased, William, standing in the cabin, noticed through the porthole that the scenery outside was changing.
Not long after, Flying Formation was flying stably at an altitude of 1,000 meters, and the scenery already looked like that of Minos Island in the early morning.
The blue sea water also forms waves under the control of artificial gravity, and combined with the artificial sun on the dome, it has a sparkling effect.
On the beach along the coastline, there are many people in swimsuits, playing happily nearby.
Looking further inland, you can see cities, towns and resorts built next to the rainforest.
Although the trees in the rainforest are artificially planted, if you look at them from a distance, they can look fake and real.
And above the rainforest, there are all kinds of tropical birds flying happily.
Even the endangered blue macaws, with the support of Umbrella's biotechnology, can fly freely in the rainforest in groups.
More importantly, because the entire surface of Mars is made of artificial foundations, it has a very advanced filtration system, and there will be no pollution at all here.
Inside the cabin.
"Boss, I think coming here is definitely a place where you can relax during your vacation."
Mylon, who was standing next to William, couldn't help but sigh when he saw the scenery below.
"Yeah." William also nodded slightly, agreeing very much with what Mylon said.
And I have already made a decision in my heart. After Halsey gives birth to the baby and finishes the confinement period, I must take her here to relax.
As for the new baby...
Leave it to Andre. That old man is an 'expert' in taking care of children, and he enjoys taking care of them.
The next Flying Formation continued flying north of the equator for a while.
It won't take long.
A city similar in size and architectural style to Hafa, but more advanced than Hafa, appeared in front of the formation.
Subsequently, Flying Formation came to the sky above a military base in the southern suburbs of the city and landed at the designated location according to the guidance of the tower.
The hatch opens.
William put his hands in his trouser pockets and saw a general who looked middle-aged and whose facial features were somewhat similar to Warrior Nation's.
And the personal guards responsible for protecting the general are all wearing UBCS military uniforms, and the name tag on the left chest has the image of 'Bulldozer' engraved on it.
This general is Major General Mikhail·Victor, and his bodyguards are also the 'Obstacle Clearers' company of one of the few elite UBCS companies.
Mikhail, who was just a captain at the time, once led his subordinate Obstacle Clearers to contain the first anomaly, which was 049 who was the director of Pluto Research Center.
The military rank has also risen from the original captain to the current major general, and is in charge of the defense of the entire Mars.
Moreover, Mikhail's younger brothers, Michel and Victor, were also promoted from captain to colonel.
Helljumpers was originally in charge of Fleet Zero's unit. Later, William transferred Michel to First Fleet because of Mike's request.
It can be said that the Victor brothers, obviously veterans who knew nothing but fighting, became one of the few well-known senior officers after accepting Umbrella's employment.
Of course, the most intuitive benefit is that these two brothers can make the family obtain enough money.
"Boss! Long time no see!"
The moment he saw William, Mikhail immediately saluted the most standard military salute, and even the group of Obstacle Clearers behind him also saluted one after another.
"Haha."
William also saluted with a smile. After putting down his hand, he said to Mikhail and Obstacle Clearers:
"Everyone, take a rest."
"Yes." Mikhail responded.
William led Serena and John to Victor. Vision looked around and took a deep breath.
He sighed, "I didn't expect that the air on Mars is much better than that over there at Minos Island. It's such a good place."
"That's right." Mikhail also catered to William and said:
"Since I became the supreme leader of Mars, I have brought my family to Mars. At first, I was just Dome Colony, but now Mars can be called the second Earth."
"Haha." William just smiled slightly and said, "Okay, take me to see the capital of Mars, Phoenix City."
"Yes."
Then, under the leadership of Mikhail, William and others took the military-grade large-scale Flying Boat, and were escorted by the Mars garrison Marine Corps to Phoenix City not far away.
After Mikhail's introduction and Serena's addition, we learned that 60% of the residents in Phoenix City are from humans in the <Starship Troopers> universe.
This percentage also applies to the entire population of Mars.
Although the federal government was reestablished under Umbrella's control and the intrusion of Arachnid Swarm in Milky Way Galaxy was resolved, humans from that universe were still immigrating to Main Universe in a steady stream.
Especially Mars.
After all, the vast majority of civilians who chose to immigrate in the first place chose to sign a half-year Engineering Team contract in order to obtain property rights on Mars.
This is one of the reasons why it took less than a few years for Mars to develop to its current size.
Mars now has a total population of about 130 million.
More than 80 million of them come from the <Starship Troopers> universe, and the remaining 50 million are people from Main Universe, and among these 50 million people...
There are also more than 14 million people who became refugees because of the rebellion caused by Yuri, which made Hozette-4d no longer habitable.
The first people to build Mars were four million of these refugees.
Moreover, in order to compensate these four million people, William also asked Serena to make arrangements to provide various benefits, and even properties in good locations.
In fact, Mars, colonies, asteroid colonies, and undeveloped planets can be occupied as long as you have the strength.
Therefore, as the most powerful Umbrella, there is not much else but a lot of 'real estate'.
After completing the simple inspection and experiencing first-hand the Mars transformed by Umbrella, William led Serena and John back to Infinity.
At this time, Hafa Time is already 18:20 on July 23.
Inside the bridge.
William stood next to Central Control Console with his arms crossed, looking at the Orion Arm star map that Holographic Imaging came out, as if he was thinking about something.
"Boss." Serena, standing behind him, asked, "Do you want to return to Earth now?"
"No." William shook his head slightly, glanced at Serena behind him with his peripheral vision, and asked:
"How long does it take to get to Epsilon Eridani from here."
"Warp Engine will take two hours, Warp Engine will take about twenty-five minutes." Serena replied.
"Well..."
William nodded lightly, looked back at the star map, and raised his voice to Carmen, who was sitting in the captain's seat, and ordered:
"Captain Ibanez, please take us to Epsilon Eridani. I want to see the company's next-generation flagship in person."
"Yes, boss."
