Chapter 48 Delphi
By early next year, Umbrella will be a business 'serving' all humanity.
As William put it: Our business is life itself.
This is what the outside world knows.
But Umbrella employees know another sentence:
We contain, we control, we protect, we are humanity's first line of defense, and we will never retreat.
People can enjoy a stable life because someone is dying for them.
The number of employees who have signed nondisclosure agreements and died in action since the Athabasca incident is as follows;
C-level security personnel in charge of containment centers around the world: 27.
Class B expatriate agents in charge of detecting anomalies: 221.
Of course, the D-level personnel who made Umbrella's biotechnology progress are also indispensable: 20,000+.
If it weren't for the selfless efforts of these people, human society would have collapsed long ago.
…
Hey…
Looking at the shade of trees outside the window, William couldn't help sighing.
It is the fearlessness of the dispatched agents that can ensure the timely arrival of the UBCS, otherwise some Safe containment items can also cause large-scale casualties.
The level is not just lethality, but also the difficulty of the containment when it is recovered.
Like Wendigo.
Such invisible evil spirits cannot be contained at all, but after understanding their weaknesses, dispatched agents alone are sufficient to deal with them, so they are classified as Euclid.
But what struck William the most was 049.
The epidemic doctor got along with the lieutenants of Containment Center No. 1, and the relationship was much more harmonious than those of the researchers.
Even most of the contained objects are analyzed and researched by 049, which helps the containment center to better control and manage, and 049 is very happy with this work.
William has watched many fan videos on YouTube in the original world.
049 can be described as killing ghosts when seeing ghosts, killing gods when meeting gods.
Not to mention the group of mobile task force ********.
On the other hand, after the UBCS lieutenants took over the No. 1 containment center, 049 did not show any intention of resistance at all, and lavender tranquilizers were not even used.
Or, let Halsey ask if you have time?
After all, the only person who can have a good conversation with 049 is her.
say
Since William almost kissed her that time, the relationship between the two has become a little delicate.
Fortunately, after Halsey helped deal with the Xbox, she went to the Delphi base to prepare for the construction of the aerospace carrier.
And William is also busy with the company's expansion, and has no time to worry about personal emotional issues.
Otherwise he wouldn't be able to fall asleep sitting next to him.
…
Boss, we are coming.
Hearing Hank's reminder, William stopped thinking and replied quietly: Well, I see.
He looked forward again.
Through the car window, you can see a checkpoint not far from the front end of the Hummer.
The level has a lift pole in the middle of the dirt road, and six UBCS wearing AAES are stationed here.
When UBCS confirmed that William was in the car, it immediately saluted and released.
The Hummer continued to drive along the dirt road between the dense forests, and soon the field of vision gradually became wider, and the end of the road was a cave entrance.
The mountain walls on both sides of the entrance were hollowed out, and it could be vaguely guessed that it was a built-in bunker.
How many hidden defense weapons and personnel configuration there are, let's see if anyone dares to try it.
The Hummer drove into the cave and continued to drive inside according to the lights.
The road in the cave is no longer a dirt road, but a flat asphalt concrete road, and there is a red and white umbrella logo every 100 meters.
This is the Delphi base.
In order to prevent detection by American spy satellites, the facilities outside the cave are extremely simple. From the air, there are trees in addition to trees.
In order to hide people's eyes and ears, William first went to the space science and technology department to inspect, and then let the team composed of Alpha return at a constant speed in the direction of Hafa.
Hank and another elite Alpha carried biochemical armor to protect William from secretly coming to the Defer base.
It's not that William is making a fuss, but that there are things in this base that can change the pattern of the world, and we must be cautious and cautious.
…
after a few minutes;
Hummer's vision suddenly opened up.
I saw that the whole mountain was hollowed out, and the huge lighting equipment made the inside of the cave like daylight.
There are five outer-frame buildings lined up in sequence and covered with green safety nets.
The glare of the welding flashes inside, and I don't know how many workers from the engineering team are building inside.
The main thing is…
Each 'building' is six hundred meters long, two hundred meters wide, and two hundred meters high.
From this, it can be concluded that the Defer base is definitely the largest of all facilities, and there is no one.
Fortunately, William's luck was good enough to get Umbrella's dedicated engineering team, otherwise Dephel would not be able to complete the project even after a few decades.
The Hummer drove for a few more minutes, and finally came to an elevator.
William and the others got out of the car and took the elevator to the facility built on the top of the cave.
The style of the facility is very similar to that of a beehive. There are UBCS patrolling in the corridor and technicians in white coats.

…
Duffel Base, inside Halsey's office;
This is the most protruding position of the top facility, and the floor and walls have been replaced by pieces of giant bulletproof glass by Halsey.
Standing here, you can overlook the entire base at a 360-degree angle without dead ends, and it can also provide her with the best inspiration.
But the scenery here is extremely unfriendly to people with acrophobia.
Tattoo~
Halsey was sitting behind the computer desk, his face was serious and cold, and he was busy typing on the keyboard with his slender fingers.
Shh-
Um?
The sound of the automatic door opening caught Halsey's attention.
When she saw that the visitor was William, her face changed from the coldness she had before, and she instantly turned into that of a little girl, ready to launch an 'attack'.
The screen switches to William.
He pressed the button to open the door and told the two Alphas beside him, Hank, just wait for me outside.
Yes, boss. (x2)
Yeah. William nodded lightly and walked into Halsey's room.
It's just that when he took a few steps forward, his heart almost didn't pop out, and there were a lot of white stars floating in his eyes, and it felt like the world was spinning.
Boss~!
Halsey got up quickly to hug her unscrupulous boss.
but…
thump--!
Before William could be ravaged by Halsey, he rolled his eyes, faced down, and fell straight to the glass floor.
Yes, William is a mild fear of heights.
but…
As soon as the door is opened, the situation of hanging is encountered, and no one can stand it.
