Containment Control Begins with Umbrella Text Volume Chapter 702 Mombasa February 3, 2027.
Location: Kenya Base.
Local clock: 09:12.
Narration:
Kenya Base is one of the largest military bases Umbrella established in Africa twenty years ago, and it is still the largest base in the southern half of the earth.
After all, this place is not far from Minos Island which is 'rich' in Super Soldier, and Africa has many historical issues and is still a hotbed of Rebels, pirates and terrorists, so the scale of Kenya Base has only increased.
Aerial view.
Kenya Base owns a huge airport, where various types of fighter planes are parked, including even the 'old-fashioned' refurbished A-10.
On the easternmost side of the base, there is another Orbital Elevator similar to the one built on Bountiful Star, and its scale is larger than that on Bountiful Star.
You can see many large military trucks driving into the base carrying giant containers of different colors, and then go straight to the bottom of Orbital Elevator.
Immediately afterwards, a large number of ground crews will drive orange-yellow-painted MS for engineering, work together to unload the container, and transport it to Orbital Elevator.
It seems that all kinds of materials will be quickly transported to the Orbital Elevator hub station fourteen kilometers away through the installation of anti-gravity freight elevators.
In fact, these materials are exactly the living supplies of Orbital Defense System near the earth.
The geographical location of Kenya Base is very good. It is only 60 kilometers away from Mombasa City, which is controlled by Umbrella.
Under Umbrella's management, Mombasa is already Africa's largest and newest 'interstellar' city, and one of the largest ports on Earth.
Therefore, the Kenya Base equipped with Orbital Elevator will receive the supply fleet of Mombasa almost every day, continuously providing materials and supplies for the low-Earth orbit defense forces.
At this time, Engineering Team stationed at Kenya Base were quickly gathering at the airport.
Subsequently, these Engineering Team members dressed in orange and yellow Mechanical Skeleton quickly entered the Pelican and DR-7 type Transport Boat that were already waiting.
At the same time, several mobile suits belonging to Engineering Team were also standing on the edge of the airport, waiting.
After the transport formation took off with all the Engineering Team, they all turned around and flew towards the seaside, preparing to assist Halsey who had arrived at Mombasa to dig out Forerunner Ruins located on the outskirts of Mombasa City.
Moreover, before flying to Mombasa City, several Pelicans also came to the top of those engineering MSs and used the suction cups on the tail to carry these MSs to Mombasa City on the seaside.
These MS are not combat-type, and do not have the anti-gravity and shields of ATs, or jet packs like Aerial Strike, so they do not have the ability to fly quickly in the atmosphere.
After loading the mobile suits used for engineering, these Pelicans accelerated to catch up with the transport formation and flew towards Mombasa in the southwest direction.
A few minutes later.
Mombasa City.
Looking down at the city occupied by Umbrella, you can see that its plan is square and flat, and the streets are divided into 'well' shapes.
Most of the buildings are giant buildings representing Umbrella Engineering Team technology. These buildings have many company logos, such as Terra Enterprise of Constantine, or branches of Dalin Heavy Industries, etc.
There are many kinds of vehicles on the street. Although the number of Flying Boat is relatively rare, this is enough to prove that the economic form of Mombasa is very good.
After all, this is Africa...Africa. It is very rare to have so many types of vehicles on the street, let alone a giant commercial building hundreds of meters high.
At this time.
A 300-meter-long warship belonging to Fleet Zero is hovering 500 meters above the center of Mombasa City.
Phantom.
This three-hundred-meter-long, three-hundred-meter-wide stealth warship carried Halsey, Ivan, Xiya and other juniors to Mombasa to preside over the excavation work of the ruins.
Inside the hangar of the Phantom.
The space here is much smaller than the hangar of a frigate, and the number of carrier-based aircraft and ground vehicles is extremely small.
Ivan, Shia, and Nova, dressed in straight military uniforms, were at the edge of the hangar deck, walking towards the center of the hangar.
As Ivan's unique Artificial Intelligence Megan, naturally she stood quietly behind Ivan, but her 'military uniform' was simulated by liquid metal.
Busy on the deck is the elite Marine Corps who is wearing Mechanical Skeleton and gray combat uniform.
Marine Corps has a small number of people, about sixty people, the strength of two platoons.
The leader is none other than Johnny Rego, one of the few members of Ivan.
Rui Ge performed very well in the City of Brotherly Love landing battle. He led a platoon of firepower and cleverly used the alternating firepower formation to suppress the Jiralhanae troops several times his own.
In that battle alone, Rui Ge won the military merit that promoted him from lieutenant to colonel.
As for Rigo's deputy and girlfriend, Tiz Flos, she stayed on Earth to recuperate due to pregnancy long before the war between humanity and the Covenant began.
As a friend of Rui Ge, Ivan also applied to William to transfer Tiz from the front-line combat force to a civilian unit.
William naturally did not refuse, which allowed Rui Ge to lead Marine Corps to make great achievements without any worries.
Just look at Rui Ge now, commanding two platoons of elite Marine Corps to transport a large number of equipment boxes to the Pelican's cabin.
When Brother Rui saw Ivan approaching, he immediately raised his hand and saluted. "Master, the doctor's scientific research equipment is about to be transported."
"Yeah." Ivan also raised his hand to return the gift to Brother Rui, and said with a smile that looked like William:
"Major Ruige, our current military ranks are both majors. From now on, you only need to address me by military rank, and you don't need to call me young master.
When there are no outsiders, you should just call me Ivan."
"Yes." Brother Rui was not polite to Ivan. He immediately put down his right hand, looked around and said:
"Ivan, where is the doctor?"
"Ivan." Before Ivan could reply, Halsey, wearing a women's suit, came to the hangar and came to Ivan's side and asked:
"When can we leave?"
Hearing this, Ivan turned around and replied to Halsey, "Mother, you can leave right away."
"Well, that's good."
Halsey said, holding a tablet as thin as paper, and while studying it, she walked into the cabin of a Pelican that she liked.
"Uncle... mother is still so resolute..."
Xiya, who was standing on the left hand side of Ivan, looked at Halsey who had already approached the cabin, and couldn't help but sigh in a low voice to Ivan.
"Ah, yes." Ivan also smiled slightly and shook his head.
With that said, Ivan also led the girls towards the Pelican, and at the same time said quietly to Brother Rui:
"Brother Rui, let's go when you're ready."
"Okay." Rui Ge replied.
In the next few minutes, Marine Corps carried all the required scientific research equipment, and then left the hangar on the Pelican and flew towards the suburbs of Mombasa City.
