Golden Legend

The first-class cabin area within the A380 had already been refitted.

A queen-sized Simmons bed, fixed sofas, a dining table, a bar, and more.

Meanwhile, Hunk's Alpha Squad was located in the business class section behind them.

As a boss who wasn't short on cash, William certainly wouldn't mistreat the USS personnel protecting him.

The business class, much like the economy class, had also been completely renovated, featuring single beds, sofas, and embedded televisions connected to DVD players.

As for Alpha Unit's main equipment, it was all stored in the cargo hold, though quite a few firearms were still kept in the cabin as an emergency measure.

A380 First Class Area;

William sat on a single sofa near the window, ignoring the sweets and fine wines laid out before him as he gazed at the clouds outside.

Halsey, on the other hand, was seated on a more spacious sofa, diligently taking notes on her laptop.

Perhaps SCP-049 has given this female genius even more inspiration.

At this moment, William wasn't merely watching the sea of clouds; he was carefully listening to the System's words.

[Detected host observing SCP-049 at close range. First containment successful.

Exchanging rewards, please wait...

Congratulations to the host for obtaining two chances to draw items or characters from the Halo series. Would you like to draw?]

"Hoo!"

Upon hearing the System's words, William, who had been on the verge of falling asleep, immediately woke up.

His previously languid posture shifted as he propped his elbows on the table in front of him, clasping his hands together under his chin.

"Ahem!" He cleared his throat, preparing himself.

Then, he loudly declared internally to the System, "Draw!"

[Received. Initiating first draw, please wait...]

"Hoo... ha..." William's breathing became heavier.

He was nervous.

Because...

Characters, I want characters!

If he drew John 117, it would be a massive windfall.

With the Master Chief's incredible luck and strength, he should be able to help the company contain most anomalies.

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the mecha that appeared in Halo Legends.

Herendine / Yggdrasil Unit One Prototype Armor Defense System complete blueprints.

Now implanting into Catherine Elizabeth Halsey's memory...

Implantation complete.]

"This..." William felt a pang of disappointment.

After all, the higher the expectation, the greater the letdown.

However, obtaining the Herendine mecha was enough to keep him happy for several months.

He had watched the anime Halo Legends countless times in high school and knew full well that Herendine was a "cheat" armor.

The Spartan-II program was equipped with Mjolnir Armor, which greatly enhanced the Spartans' strength, endurance, agility, and reaction speed.

And later, the most famous Mark V armor even possessed energy shields, turning every Spartan-II warrior into a perfect killing machine.

It was a shame...

Ordinary soldiers couldn't wear Mjolnir Armor; the best outcome would be severe disability.

Therefore, in the anime, Naval Intelligence (ONI) developed this Herendine mecha on the planet Argolas.

The planet was subsequently invaded, which is the story content of Episode Six of the anime.

According to the Cole Protocol in the game's lore, this Herendine mecha had to be destroyed.

But the Master Chief, tasked with carrying out this mission, donned the Herendine mecha to fight against an entire Covenant fleet, covering the evacuation of his subordinates and civilians.

He successfully delayed their departure and heavily damaged the Covenant attacking force.

Ultimately, facing overwhelming odds and isolated, his mecha's energy shields failed, and the Master Chief's left arm was broken.

After confirming the safe evacuation of civilians and friendly forces, the Master Chief detonated the Herendine's built-in micro fusion reactor, taking the Covenant forces with him.

It could be said that possessing the Herendine meant Umbrella wouldn't just have a "humanoid Gundam"; it was much more.

Most importantly, Halsey could also develop the fusion technology and even the energy shield technology.

That's technology five hundred years ahead of humanity's current level.

It also gained the capability of nuclear threat.

But Herendine's only drawback is its exorbitant cost, several times that of the Mjolnir Armor.

Several Aegis-class destroyers...

[Host has one more Halo series gacha chance. Would you like to draw?]

Recovering from his shock and joy, William said calmly, "Ah, go ahead."

[Received. Drawing for the second time, please wait...

Congratulations to the host for obtaining the protagonist of the Halo game series, Master Chief.

Selecting one of the fourteen children the host requested to be kidnapped...

Modifying...

Modification complete.]

"WTF... WTF..."

Upon hearing the System's words, William couldn't help but utter a certain famous line.

Because he couldn't contain himself!

He had originally given up on trying to be clever and just drew randomly...

He didn't expect to get a 'gold' tier item!

Damn it!

What the hell...

Fortunately, Halsey was inspired and didn't notice her boss acting strangely.

The System also took advantage of William's shock to continue speaking in his ear:

[The modified child is named John Campe, sharing the same first name but a different last name as the Master Chief in the game.

Age: 11 Combat Power: 17 Special Skill: None.]

"Huh?"

William snapped his jaw shut, rubbed his temples, and leaned back on the sofa, asking:

"What's going on?"

[Responding to host, when John Campe is modified into a Spartan warrior by Dr. Halsey of this world, he will reach peak stats.

John Campe's peak stats are as follows:

Combat Power: xxx Special Skill: Good Luck.

Possesses extraordinary luck, capable of finding solutions even in seemingly certain death situations.

When facing extreme circumstances, it increases the combat power of nearby allies by twenty to thirty points and boosts his own combat power by twenty percent.

Note:

xxx represents an unknown limit, with a minimum of no less than four hundred.]

"Holy crap!"

Even the well-mannered William couldn't help but utter that classic Huaxia phrase.

xxx?

999 was also a possibility.

The only thing that made William's heart itch was that John was only eleven years old.

But it was better than nothing.

At this moment, the System continued: [Host, please pay attention to the following matters.

As anomalous phenomena begin to appear sequentially around the world, agents will report to the host's company one by one.

Only when this System detects phenomena with high lethality and the potential to cause significant civilian casualties will it alert the host and issue containment missions and rewards.

After all, anomalous phenomena that can be contained by agents alone do not require deploying troops to make a fuss.

And the host wouldn't want to be disturbed by this System twenty-four hours a day, would they?]

"Hmm, that makes sense."

William nodded, deeply agreeing in his heart.
