Containment Control Begins with Umbrella, Main Text, Chapter 702: Mombasa, February 3, 2027.

Location: Kenya Base.

Local Time: 09:12.

Narration:

Kenya Base was one of the largest military bases Umbrella had established in Africa twenty years ago. Even now, it remained the largest base in Earth's southern hemisphere.

After all, it was not far from Minos Island, which was "famous for producing" Super Soldiers. Africa also had many historical problems, and it remained a breeding ground for Rebels, pirates, and terrorists, so Kenya Base only grew larger.

Viewed from the air.

Kenya Base had a gigantic airport, where all kinds of fighter aircraft were parked. Even the "ancient" refurbished A-10s could be found there.

On the easternmost side of the base stood an Orbital Elevator resembling the one built on Bountiful Star, and it was even larger than the one on Bountiful Star.

Many large military trucks could be seen carrying huge containers of various colors into the base before heading straight to the area beneath the Orbital Elevator.

Next, large numbers of ground crews would drive orange-and-yellow Engineering Team MS units to unload the containers together and transport them into the Orbital Elevator.

It seemed that all kinds of supplies would be quickly transported through the anti-gravity freight elevators to the Orbital Elevator hub fourteen kilometers away.

In fact, these supplies were daily necessities for Earth's near-orbit defense system.

Kenya Base was in an excellent location. It was only sixty kilometers from Mombasa, which was controlled by Umbrella.

Under Umbrella's management, Mombasa had already become Africa's largest and newest "interstellar" city, as well as one of the largest ports on Earth.

Therefore, Kenya Base, equipped with an Orbital Elevator, received supply convoys from Mombasa almost every day, continuously providing materials and provisions for the near-orbit defense forces.

At that
