Location: Distance coordinates 74°41's, east of 164°16'e, in the Southern Ocean.
At this time, Antarctica was still in a state of polar night. On the sea thirty kilometers away from the Antarctic continent, there were two large ships sailing in the ice floes one after another.
The ship behind is the Bohandong where Sui Bian is located, and the one in front is an icebreaker belonging to the company, clearing the way for the Bohandong.
The flight deck of the Wave Winter.
The two CH-53s with the propellers retracted have already been covered with dustproof cloths. Some of the ground crew members who put on winter cold-proof clothing are checking the chains that fix the CH-53s. Others are gathered together chatting and waiting.
The next order from the bridge.
Sui Bian, who was wearing a black jacket, winter pants, and a black peaked cap, was also standing in the middle of the deck. He put his hands in his pockets and looked up at the stars, silently admiring the green aurora.
Perhaps due to good luck, the group of them had not seen the aurora since they sailed into the polar night zone of the Antarctic Circle. However, when they were only thirty kilometers away from the Antarctic Research Institute, the aurora appeared in this area like ripples on the water.
Above.
"Huh~." Sui Bian took a long breath, and the warm gas instantly turned into a 'fog' when it was cold, lingering in front of his eyes for a moment before dissipating.
In addition to the dazzling auroras, there are also 'stars' that twinkle due to refraction in the atmosphere. It has to be said that the night in Antarctica is much more beautiful than in other regions.
Now, eight days have passed since the destruction of Rockford Island.
After the Bohandong eliminated all the resistance on the island, it left a hundred elite security guards behind, and then directly adjusted its course to the Antarctic Research Institute.
Two hours after the Bohandong left, the fleet that had already departed from the African base arrived at Rockford Island.
The fleet transported Umbrella's engineering department personnel and workers, as well as a large number of technical personnel.
The job of the Engineering Department is to repair the airport's runway and related facilities, and then transform Rockford Island into the first anomaly detention center in a short period of time.
The job of the technicians is simple and clear, that is, to deal with the bodies of humans and B.O.W.s on the island, and to thoroughly disinfect the closed facilities to ensure that there is no risk of infection to the workers.
The Wave of Winters sailed for a day and arrived at the port of Durban in South Africa. The crew and accompanying troops rested in Durban for two days. At the same time, the Wave of Winters was also replenishing and waiting for the icebreaker dispatched by the African base.
The Bitter Winter and the icebreaker that arrived arrived at the Antarctic at 09:00 on the 24th, preparing to take over Umbrella's last 'wild' research facility.
In the following time, Sui Bian, who accompanied him, gradually secured his position as chairman with the help of the Red Queen and the White Queen.
Although he is the only director on the company's board of directors.
Among them, military bases and ports in Africa, as well as the research institute next to the ruins of the Dibaidia tribe in Burkina Faso, West Africa, north of the capital Ouagadougou, did not have any objections to Sui Bian's coming to power.
Employees, researchers and armed forces in Africa have similar ideas to USS, which is to obey all orders from the company's top management.
Don't worry.
On the 26th, Wang Zhaofeng also received good news, that is, m41a and caseless pulse bombs can now enter the production line.
It's just that the production workshop of Mother's Nest is becoming saturated.
Therefore, Sui Bian asked Queen Bai to make arrangements to build an arsenal next to Umbrella Airport on the outskirts of Raccoon City that could satisfy his mass production of individual weapons and equipment.
However, after Birkin mentioned the completion of the g-virus to Sui Bian, he never said another word to him. It seemed that neither the refining of the serum nor the use of the virus to create super soldiers was going well.
Sui Bian was not in a hurry about this and let it take its course. Moreover, there was no need to rush into this kind of thing. If he kept asking, it would disturb Birken and Rebecca's thoughts.
As for major projects and plans in other departments of the company, such as real estate, medicine, digital and other departments, they all require his approval and signature.
As for smaller departments, such as film, television, and entertainment, he does not need to be personally involved, unless these small departments do something earth-shattering.
In fact, Queen Bai helped Sui Bian check the above aspects. She would screen out the projects and plans that were most likely to be profitable. The rest was up to him to think about whether to implement, sign and allocate funds.
The Red Queen has also been recruiting retired soldiers from all over the world, selecting them based on their military affiliation, service experience, family composition, etc., and preparing to form various task forces as envisioned by Sui Bian.
At first, Sui Bian was a little uncomfortable with assuming power all of a sudden. The dazzling documents and archives were floating in like snowflakes, but everything needs a process, and now he has gradually become familiar with this rhythm.
Just now, when he was checking project templates on his laptop in his cabin, he heard the crew in the corridor say there was an aurora.
Out of curiosity and the purpose of relaxing his eyes, Sui Bian came to the flight deck to take a breather and witness the aurora scenery that looked like a computer wallpaper.
"Hey." After taking a deep breath, Sui Bian couldn't help but sigh and shook his head.
Time flies.
From waking up in a studio apartment to standing on the flight deck of a ship thinking about life, three months passed very quickly.
"I don't know what kind of things are waiting for me in the future, and Umbrella has to reduce and control them. Well, it's time to continue working."
After Sui Bian whispered to himself, he turned and walked towards the hatch leading to the ship.
15:07.
The icebreaker reaches the limit of its progress.
15:20.
With the assistance of the ground crew, the two CH-53s re-deployed the propellers, and then the pilots cooperated with the ground crew to conduct pre-takeoff inspections.
15:32.
The three troops of Charon, Spear of Olympus and Epsilon are preparing to log in to ch-53 in sequence.
15:35.
With everything ready, the two CH-53s flew off the deck of Bo Handong and headed for the Antarctic Research Institute on the edge of the Antarctic continent.
15:56.
Due to good weather, the CH-53 flight formation successfully arrived at the Antarctic Research Institute and landed on the research institute's apron.
The Antarctic Research Institute was once built by Alexander Asifot, Alfred Alexia’s ‘father’.
The reason for the quotation marks is that these brothers and sisters were born in the Antarctic Research Institute by Alexander using artificial insemination.
After Alexia learned of her origin, out of hatred, she made Alexander the first experimental subject of the T-Veronica virus, turning her nominal father into a monster that is neither human nor ghost.
After Alexia, who took over as the director of the Antarctic Research Institute, fell into a deep sleep under the pretense of faking her own death, the Antarctic Research Institute failed to recover. It was precisely because of this that it did not attract Spencer's attention.
After learning that the company's top management would take over the Antarctic Research Institute again, the remaining employees were too late to be happy. How could they block the landing of the CH-53 formation?
In this way, Sui Bian successfully took control of Umbrella's last large facility.
