### Objectives

Upload a virus to erase the OVM's Hub software
Destroy the OVM Hub

### Agents Involved

Iulya Dalca Carlos Sánchez

Jack Harringer

## Background

Since learning about the Russians' OVM project, there was actually little that the QIA had been able to do about it, especially since the OVM was granted legitimacy in the wake of the Prometheus Leak.

However, after discovering that Konstantin Denisov had been interfering with - and both actively preventing and causing quantum infractions - Enora Gallou decided that it was time to destroy the rogue organisation, especially since they still had a working Hub while all three of the QIA Hubs had been disabled by the theta.exe file.

## Infraction

While not technically an infraction, the mission certainly went against many principles of the QIA. It took place concurrently with the St Petersburg, Vienna and Black Dolphin missions in an attempt to both disable the OVM permanently, and also break out Sacha Bell from captivity so that he could restore the Hubs.

## Mission Outline

The first stage of the mission was to keep Irina Polyakov busy by having Amber Harvey invite her and her entourage (which included Oleg Yudin) to London for a dinner party with some other G20 leaders.

Carlos Sánchez and Iulya Dalca flew out to Moscow posing as Mr and Mrs Wade, and booked a hotel room in the name of Mr and Mrs Kushnir, from which they were able to observe Irina and Oleg heading to the airport to fly to London.

Following this, Jack Harringer then dropped them both off in the woods near the OVM compound, but once here they saw to their surprise that both Irina and Oleg were present, despite also being in London at that exact same moment, along with Konstantin.

Undeterred, the agents continued the mission as planned. Carlos infiltrated the compound and first planted a relay device which allowed Iulya, still in the woods, to upload a powerful virus (designed by Anna Vogel) to destroy the OVM's Hub software. He then headed into the Svod building with the intention of planting and setting off three bombs. Unwilling to murder anyone, Carlos first convinced its two occupants to leave, then placed the bombs, which had been manufactured using the plastic explosive MR47 and had been hidden in three detachable pieces of a fake AK-12 assault rifle.

However, Carlos was caught by Oleg, and the two engaged in a brief fight during which Oleg injured Carlos with his combat knife before being tranquilised by prohiberazin. Carlos made a brief attempt to protect Oleg's unconscious body by stowing it behind a metal staircase, but the ensuing blast of the three bombs killed him anyway.

Carlos fled the compound but was tracked by Konstantin, who fought both him and Iulya out in the woods. Eventually, Konstantin was also hit with prohiberazin, though he managed to Jump back to the compound just before the drug took effect.

Carlos and Iulya stole Konstantin's car and headed back to Moscow, where they were later picked up again by Jack.

## Repercussions

Following the destruction of the OVM Hub and the erasure of its software, the organisation was later officially disbanded and the QIA given back jurisdiction over Russian infractions. Irina was also essentially scapegoated for all the conflict and failures, and was arrested.

Having been rescued from Black Dolphin, Sacha Bell also went on to bring the London Hub back online.
