Anomalous phenomenon file being written……
Writing completed.
Item number: AP-002.
Reading clearance: B-level, and B-level and above.
Threat level: Non-threat (Level One).
Status: Mitigated.
Description:
The item was first discovered by the company on ■■ August ■■, 1998, at coordinates ■■°■■'25.9″S, ■■°■■'51.1″E.
The item is a massive pyramid that combines Egyptian, Cambodian, Mayan, and other cultural styles, located in a hollow space about 600 meters below the ice layer.
It has now been mitigated by the subsidiary anomalous phenomenon AP-002-02.
Given that the item itself poses no harm to humans and that it has been mitigated by AP-002-02, the company has classified it as non-threat.
Subsidiary anomalous phenomena;
①AP-002-01.
Alias: Xenomorph.
Threat level: Hera (Level Three).
Description:
(That is, the relevant traits of the Xenomorph, which will not be elaborated here).
Given that the item possesses rapid evolution, rapid reaction, and extremely high intelligence, if not controlled or mitigated it would cause large-scale harm and even threaten the entire human species; therefore the company classifies it as Hera.
②AP-002-02.
Alias: Iron Blood Clan.
Threat level: Hera → TBD.
Description:
(That is, the relevant traits of the Iron Blood Warriors.)
Based on the weapons and equipment technology displayed by the item, the company judges that the item's species possesses the capability to reshape human civilization.
Given that the item can engage in communication, cooperation, and even alliance, the company classifies the item's species as Hera-level.
If in the future the company or humanity allies with the item, the level will be re-evaluated according to the degree of alliance.
Subsidiary file;
The company has recovered the relevant weapons and equipment of AP-002-02 (Iron Blood), and currently a research team led by Dr. Wang Zhaofeng, the high-tech R&D head of the mother nest, is conducting reverse-engineering of the technology.

Umbrella file being retrieved……
Retrieval completed.
Item name: Raccoon City suburbs arms factory.
Reading clearance: C-level, and C-level and above.
Status: Under construction.
Description:
Given that the production capacity of the Raccoon City mother nest research center can no longer meet the company's demands, the company conducted site selection and planning in the latter half of August 1998, and then began formal construction on September 5 of the same year.
The arms factory is located in the suburbs of Raccoon City, and its main responsibility is to provide individual equipment for the company's USS, MTF, and other elite units.
Such as the mass production of mechanical exoskeletons, MA5B, and M41A.
The arms factory is expected to be completed in June 1999, at which time the company will be able to greatly increase the efficiency of updating individual equipment.

Item name: Memory Eraser.
Reading clearance: B-level, and B-level and above.
Person in charge: Wang Zhaofeng.
Status: Completed.
Description:
The high-tech research team of the mother nest led by Wang Zhaofeng has thoroughly perfected the company's research on memory modification, deletion, and so on.
The first-generation company-owned memory eraser is officially named «UmbrellaExclusiveNeuralyzer-001».
Abbreviated as UEN-001.
UEN-001 can erase the target's memories during the time period set by the user.
The user can input false memories and experiences for the target by means of 'storytelling'.
Of course, the user may also choose to do nothing, which will leave the target with a memory gap.
The users of UEN-001 are units composed of Umbrella intelligence personnel, mobile task forces, rapid reaction teams, and technical staff.
It can be anticipated that once the company possesses UEN-model memory erasers, it will be able to immediately control and conceal the existence of anomalous phenomena.
At the same time, the mother nest's high-tech research team has also thoroughly perfected brainwashing technology.
The company's previous memory deletion, modification, and brainwashing technologies have considerable side effects on humans, especially modification and brainwashing, which can severely cause direct death.
The company's current brainwashing technology will be able to modify human memory at low risk, and can also be used in the Super Soldier Program {For details, please consult the file}.

Project Name: Umbrella Recreated Soldier Program.
Reading Clearance: B-level and above.
Project Leader: Rebecca Chambos.
Status: Ongoing.
Description:
On September 11, 1998, the Raccoon City Hive Research Center officially launched the Recreated Soldier program, whose primary goal is to provide the company with an elite task force of 20 to 30 personnel.
The company followed the project leader's recommendation, and on September 11 the Hive sequentially collected blood and tissue samples from three USS units and two MTF members.
After 30 hours of data analysis and comparison, a total of 20 individuals were selected as samples for the Recreated Soldier, including Captain Han Ke, Lieutenant Chris Redfield, Colonel Mi Xie Er Wei Ke Duo, and Sergeant Ka Luo Si Ao Li Wei La.
Under the project leader's direction, the Hive began cloning the aforementioned 20 individuals on September 13.
September 24.
The Hive completed the cloning procedure and, during the process, performed substantial genetic modifications on the 20 cloned soldiers.
On the 24th, the research team began injecting the 20 cloned soldiers with relevant compounds, gradually converting them into Recreated Soldiers.
September 26.
The 20 cloned soldiers completed their transformation into Recreated Soldiers and were subsequently programmed in their brains to obey only company orders.
September 27.
After brain programming, the 20 cloned soldiers began testing on the Hive's third floor, with deployment in actual combat expected by mid‑October.
Note:
Each cloned soldier successfully converted into a Recreated Soldier consumes funds equivalent to the cost of constructing three Tyrant T‑103 models.
The company directly possesses mature Recreated Soldier technology, so it did not expend large sums on research and development, but proceeded straight to production.
Although the cost per cloned soldier is not exorbitant, it remains a highly capital‑intensive project.
If the Recreated Soldiers prove exceptionally effective in combat, the company will appropriately reduce production and development of the Tyrant models, redirecting more funds into the Recreated Soldier program.

Project Name: Umbrella Mobile Task Force (MTF) File.
Reading Clearance: B-level and above.
Description:
The MTF differs in unit attributes from Umbrella's Quick Response Force (USS); its primary purpose is the control and mitigation of anomalous phenomena.
However, because the MTF was established later, before it was fully formed, the USS was responsible for controlling and mitigating anomalous phenomena.
According to the company's elite unit ranking, the MTF ranks just below the USS.
Thus the MTF will receive USS-level treatment; if the Raccoon City suburban armory is completed, it will mass‑produce individual weapons and gear for the MTF.
After three months of development, the company's MTF units are now ready for deployment.
There are currently three MTF squads.
1. Ka Rong Task Force.
2. Olympus Spear Task Force.
3. Living Dead Task Force.
