*Dang—Dang—!*
Halsey tapped the Thor's hammer armour on it's breastplate with her fingers, then turned to look at William, crossing her arms under her chest with the corners of her mouth smiling slightly: "Hey, as you can see, your five billion are all well spent here."
'? !'
William, who was only originally interested in observing the newly developed armour, heard Halsey say that he had ran out of money, felt that his legs softened and he almost couldn't stand firmly.
Money.
He once said that it is not a problem.
Umbrella's earnings even by a quarter has already exceeded ten digits.
But it can't stand this flower...
Five billion helmets?
With the completed body of Thor's Hammer and Helendin, can't that amount to an entire fleet plus two aircraft carriers?
This prodigal girl!
Fuck...
Thinking of this, William opened his eyes wide and opened his mouth slightly, slowly placing his hands on his head and scratching hard.
"Haha~"
Seeing William's face change between red and white from panic, Halsey smiled at her trickery, before stroking her lower abdomen and saying: "It's okay boss, I won't tease you, or laugh. Actually~The expected cost of Thor's Hammer is between seven and one billion yuan, while Herendin's range would be even greater, it may take about ten times that of the Thors. These two suits in front of you and me are just the current final form. After all, a lot of experiments must been done, such as experimenting with new materials, trailing the system research and development, testing the neural response, etc... Which will definitely cost a little more. But is only a few hundred million."
"You, you..."
After listening to her explanation, William stopped thinking about how to quickly expand Umbrella's income, and instead just looked at the other party with a complaining expression.
He couldn't help it.
Time slowly eased the mood that seemed to be jumping low, and William gradually recovered his calm, looking at Halsey and said quietly: "Was the remaining money used by your hive team to make the AAES?"
"Yes~ none was wasted."
Halsey walked around William with her hands behind her back and said: "The containment items are classified into four grades, and one of the grades were given to SCP-049 was Euclid. Even if there are no big soldiers equipped with AAES, SCP-049 was still able to be contained. But what about Keter or above? Yes, this will need my Spartans to deal with it. Even though the colonel had sent USS to replace those children not long ago, the Spartan project has also entered the agenda. But... Sparta needs time to grow."
"Speaking of which." Halsey walked up to William, standing on her tiptoes, watching her boss from up close and said in a deep voice: "If a Keter or Thaumiel class anomaly appeared during this period, and there were no super soldiers to contain them. What could we do?"
William thought slightly: "You mean... you developed a kind of low-profile version of the super soldier?"
"That's right~" Halsey regained her usual face expression again, hooking her finger and said: "Come with me and show you the 'Super Soldier'."
"Ok."
William had long been accustomed to Halsey's strange expressions and weird behaviour, shrugged his shoulders, and followed after her.
They came to the corridor, just moved a few more steps, and the two of them came to the next room.
__________
*Swish~*
When the automatic door was closed, William felt a little cooler. This should be because the temperature of the air-conditioning in this room was much lower.
The dim red light within the room didn't allow him see much bar the centre of the room that held five 'human' shadows.
*Click--!*
Halsey, who was standing behind William, smiled. She reached out and poked a light switch that was next to the door, turning on an incandescent lamp that illuminated the apparent 'super soldiers' from the darkness.
William saw that those five sets had not been super soldiers at all, but power armours standing still like dark warriors.
William approached them and observed.
He found that they were composed of a large number of massive pieces of armour. There was no obvious gap between the mask and the helmet, and the hood was similar to USS optical camouflage uniforms.
As he continued to look closely again.
He can find a transparent tubular network between the armour gaps, which is filled with light green liquid.
At this time, Halsey was stopped pretending to be mysterious. She walked to the middle suit and said to William: "Boss, as I promised you, I upgraded the individual combat systems of UBCS and USS. Each set of AAES with a unit price of 22 million yuan, the performance is in line with the requirements of the UBCS special company. In the case of the arsenal with the hive, the monthly output is roughly 50 sets. It's slow, but compared to Thor's Hammer and Herendin, it is much faster. "
"So..." William stroked one of the 'Dark Samurai' armours.
It felt cool and icy.
William then looked at Halsey and asked, "Was all of the remaining money spent for these five suits then?"
"No." Halsey continued: "The vast majority of your 5 billion is used to develop Herendin and Thor's Hammer, as well as the experiments on fusion reactors, etc. And I haven't used up all of the money yet. These five sets are a biochemical 'power' armour that I have developed around the beginning of the completion of the hive. "
"Biochemical armour?" William had only heard of it for the first time today.
"Don't touch it."
Halsey flicked William's disobedient hand away from the armour before explaining: "The most successful product of the T virus is the tyrant T-103. They have strong explosive power and endurance. They can take simple commands, and absolutely obey them, among other advantages. But the shortcomings from them are also very obvious, that is, without the cooperation of soldiers, they will be besieged like fools. They don't have a lot of independence when it comes to intelligence which makes them just another kind of cannon fodder. But in an experiment, I had tried to coagulate the blood of the tyrant to remove the serum separated by a series of procedures such as fibrin and clotting factors...Which can actually allow people with strong physical fitness to secrete adrenaline quickly, safely and continuously, and improve brain activity and responsiveness. It can even make wounds heal quickly, infinitely close to the limit of the human body. In other words, what is the name of the superhero created by the Marvel comic company you bought..."
"Captain America." William jumped into the conversation.
"Yes~!"
Halsey stood on her tiptoes again, and poked William's right cheek, before squinting and smiling: "My boss is so good."
"Please stop making trouble, tell me more about this biochemical armour." William smiled helplessly.
"Hmm~" Halsey raised her jaw and continued: "Each Tyrant T-103 can only extract 100 ml of T serum. And each set of biochemical armour requires four thousand millilitres in order to achieve the human limits that I said before for a long time. So even without T serum, it is still a very good power armour. It also has a more advanced mechanical skeleton than AAES, a large area of titanium alloy armour, optical camouflage and other functions. This is the 'personal combat system' that USS should have."
"This…"
After hearing Halsey's introduction, William could only say that Halsey was really 'crazy'.
Only one hundred millilitres per tyrant?
Then a set of biochemical armour requires forty tyrants to be filled with serum, so it can only be used for combat.
This means that the USS will need to consume forty tyrants for only few missions wearing biochemical armour.
The impact of this was suddenly felt by William...
Halsey was the greatest 'abnormal phenomenon' of this world.
