After a long while, "Alright," Halsey said, chiding William in his arms, "It's not just you who's going to be a father; I'm going to be a mother too."
"Hehe, yes, yes," William chuckled absentmindedly.
He carefully set Halsey down, then half-knelt, his ear instinctively pressing against her lower abdomen.
It seemed…
It seemed he wanted to listen for any movement?
Seeing this,
"Are you silly?" Halsey gently tapped the top of William's head with her hand.
And laughed, "It's only been twenty-one days; how could there be any movement yet?"
"You're right, you're right. How could I be so muddled?"
William, enlightened by Halsey, scratched his head, and after slowly standing up, he couldn't help but hug her again.
It wasn't that his reaction was excessive.
Mainly, ever since he arrived in this world, William had always felt out of place, and now he finally felt 'rooted' in this world.
"William, let me go. I still need to finalize the modification plan for the God-body," Halsey said softly.
"Okay," William nodded gently as well, and after letting her go, he admonished, "You're pregnant now, so you can't sit in front of the computer day and night like before. If it's really too much, I'll have Serina come help you."
"Oh, you don't need to worry about me so much," Halsey poked William's side again, helplessly saying, "Besides the tricky 'The Thing' anomaly recently, there's nothing else to worry about for now. And soon, Rebecca can be my assistant, so there won't be any problems."
"Hmm, that's good," William finally relaxed.

Project: God-body · Modified.
Read Permission: B-level and above.
Description:
As a God-body constructed using the genes of first-generation Spartans and Achilles' blood, it was initially designed to deal with giant anomalies on Earth.
It performed excellently in the Antarctic battle, capable of overwhelmingly defeating the legendary Protoss.
However, with the emergence of the 'The Thing' anomaly, Umbrella realized that humanity was not 'alone' in the universe.
In view of this situation, a modification project led by Halsey was approved to comprehensively transform the ground-combat God-body.
It gained mobility in high-altitude and space, and could cooperate with fleets in combat to respond to any invasion.
Since the Hive developed the Gauss Spike Rifle, Umbrella's research into Gauss weapons has matured, the caliber of weapons equipped by the God-body has gradually increased, and at the same time, funding consumption has decreased.
The armament system of the God-body · Modified is as follows:
Composite titanium alloy armor. Energy shield. God-body standard Gauss Spike Repeating Cannon, capable of firing 566mm caliber spike rounds.
Spike rounds have multiple types.
Such as delayed explosive rounds, armor-piercing incendiary rounds, tracer guidance rounds, and so on.
The Hive and Minos Island have also specially crafted six-barreled 140mm caliber rotary Gauss cannons for the robust Spartan God-bodies, a type of 'machine gun' capable of effectively tearing apart giant vessels. Funnel system.
The first generation of Spartans had four teams: Blue, Red, Black, and White. The captain of each team was equipped with a funnel system for controlling the battlefield situation or launching overwhelming attacks.
Particle Beam Sword.
As the name suggests, it is a 'lightsaber' developed based on particle beam technology, and it is the best choice for Spartan God-bodies in close-quarters combat.
Derivative weapon: Ship-cutting Blade.
The God-body can carry two ship-cutting blades, each 130m long, which can be combined.

.
When the God-body is equipped with the power thrusters developed by Dr. Halsey, its mobility performance in space is only slightly inferior to that of the F-X and Viking fighters.

Project: Fleet.
Read Permission: B-level and above.
Description.
While Umbrella was heavily modifying the God-body,
The company's owner, William Russell, instructed Serina to open three shipyards in Canada: Alberta, Nova Scotia, and Quebec.
Including Newfoundland and Labrador, Umbrella now has four large shipyards to accelerate the progress of the fleet's 'entry into the sea'.
By the end of the third quarter of 2010, Umbrella had three regular fleets and the secret-class fleet of the company's owner, William Russell.
Among them, the Spartan Red, White, and Black teams were stationed in the First, Second, and Third Fleets, respectively.
The flagship of each fleet, the Phoenix-class aircraft carrier, was modified.
The carrier's hangar was expanded again.
Ground combat armored units were reduced, a small number of carrier-based aircraft and bombers were retained, and one-third of the marines were cut.
The freed-up space was used to transport the Spartans' God-bodies and the ground crew responsible for God-body maintenance and repair.
As for the flagship of the secret-class fleet, it is the Phantom, where Russell and Dr. Halsey reside.
Its composition consists of three Paris-class frigates, similarly equipped with optical camouflage, high-temperature resistant stealth coating, and energy shields.
The three frigates canceled their original marine and armored vehicle complements.
They retained the Helljumpers unit, as well as the carrier-based Pelican, F-X, and Viking fighters.
The excess space was used to transport the three God-bodies of the Spartan Blue Team.
Fleet composition:
Twelve heavy frigates.
Three battlecruisers.
One aircraft carrier.
Fleet locations:
The First Fleet remains in Mars' near-Earth orbit.
The Second Fleet guards the asteroid belt colony.
The Third Fleet is located in Titan's near-Earth orbit.
The Secret Fleet, on the other hand, remains in Earth's near-Earth orbit long-term, and its carrier-based Helljumper company is used to assist containment operations on Earth.
In case of an emergency, Athena, the Spartan Blue Team, and the 'Guardian' elite marine corps stationed on the Phantom can also join the support forces.
.
The four shipyards utilize mineral resources from the asteroid belt and can build twenty-four Paris-class frigates, six battlecruisers, and two Phoenix-class aircraft carriers within a year.
At the same time, they can also build a large number of colony ships, preparing for Umbrella's first colonization plan to an exoplanetary system.
.
November 1, 2010.
General Ostrovsky (Andrei), Umbrella's supreme commander, strongly requested the company to equip UBCS and Mobile Task Forces with corresponding warships for containment operations against various anomalies.
Request approved.
By the end of the first quarter of 2011, a containment fleet composed of three Phoenix-class aircraft carriers officially 'launched' and orbited Earth's near-Earth orbit.
Each carrier transports at least six Mobile Task Forces, 1200 Tyrants, and a large number of UBCS equipped with AAES, as well as USS equipped with bio-armor.
The carrier's individual air drop pods were modified to deploy combat personnel and also to deploy Tyrants for orbital assault.

Project: Second Generation Spartan.
Read Permission: A-level and above.
Description:
The dosage of T-virus and vaccine injected into the second-generation Spartans is no different from the first generation; only the modification surgery has become more conservative, and the potential activation is slightly inferior to the first generation.
Tests have shown that the genes of second-generation Spartans are also suitable for God-body construction.
In the foreseeable future, Umbrella will have more God-body mechs to cooperate with the fleet in protecting humanity.
