Chapter 21. David's Gift
"Drinking more water and eating more fluid foods can help restore muscle tissue. Crew, eat high-calorie cheese ......"
The electronic voice without any emotion echoed in the cabin full of high-tech texture, and Jiang Jiu and the others honestly took their own food and dispersed it.
They can't be together all the time, which is not conducive to intelligence gathering.
Of course, this is only one of them, and the most important thing is that it is not conducive to the triggering of side quests.
Jiang Jiu took his plate and looked at the other scattered contractors, and began to think in his mind.
The male and female protagonists have two green-level people in the past, and the overseer of this spaceship, Vickers, has also been contacted by a green-level person, and it should be difficult for me to trigger the side quest in the past.
The biologists and geologists were passed by one Purple and another Yellow, while the Black Captain was followed by another Purple Class.
In addition to them, the others who have a little bit of a role in the movie are divided among the contractors.
Jiang Jiu was stunned for a moment, suddenly thought of something, and slowly turned his head around.
I saw a person standing not far away, it was the robot that took them to get the equipment before, David.
David is not only a robot, but also a key figure in this derivative world.
But it is precisely because of him that everyone does not dare to approach him easily.
David is different from the humans here, he is an unstable factor, and he can easily become a man who smiles on the surface and sells criticism in his heart.
Following him, even if there is a side quest, the contractors dare not fully believe it.
If you share the god's kung fu, you may be sold.
However, Jiang Jiu somewhat understood David's feelings.
His father died, and the meaning of Jiang Jiu's survival is now in a state of semi-deprivation, and he can only rely on space missions to find a new meaning of survival while paralyzing himself; And David, because he is a robot, is immortal, obeys the command of his "father", and is also looking for the meaning of his existence.
Jiang Jiu did not have his father's promise, not satisfied with the ambiguity of space, David had human emotions, not satisfied with human beings using him as a tool.
To be honest, they are very similar, and they both have a yearning for the meaning of survival.
It's just that one is looking for fillers, and the other is preparing to create their own fillers.
Jiang Jiu had a smile on his face, and came to David's side calmly holding the cup containing fluid food.
"What are you thinking?"
"Mr. Jiang Jiu? I'm wondering, what did you humans create me for~"
As soon as he arrived, Jiang Jiu came across this fatal sentence.
If Jiang Jiu's answer doesn't work, I'm afraid he will end up in the same fate as the male protagonist Holloway.
However, since he had previewed in advance, Jiang Jiu naturally did not need to panic.
"You think about your father, he needed you, so he created you. What do you think he thinks of you? ”
"Hmm...... Son. ”
David hesitated for a moment and nodded.
As a robot, he rarely hesitated, but he rarely hesitated in this matter.
Jiang Jiu understood that a tirade would have no effect on David, and besides, Jiang Jiu was just a killer, not a speaker, and he couldn't do anything at length.
So, he chose to play the ball.
"Why do you think we humans created you, that's it, human beings, not of the same heart."
"You're right, it's true."
David nodded, he was a robot, and the programming templates were all set, so in his consciousness, Jiang Jiu's answer was not wrong.
At the same time, Jiang Jiu's task panel suddenly changed.
Side Quests:
"David's Gift": Take a container of organic matter and bring it to David
Reward: 1000 Space Coins
Mission time: 24 hours
Difficulty: Level F
Failure Penalty: None
Well, the side quests are coming.
But where do you find that container?
Jiang Jiu was thinking about it, and David handed him a bottle of frozen spray.
"Get another bag, you can use it when it matters."
"Thank you."
"You're welcome, there should be two hours left before landing, and now it's time for us to gather for a mission briefing."
David smiled and left first.
Jiang Jiu looked at the back of him leaving, paused, and followed.
After a while, dozens of people, including the contractor, gathered in the hall.
The ship's leader, or Overseer Vickers, was a clean-cut woman who saw that everyone had arrived, and went straight to the mission briefing.
"Good morning, this is for those whom I personally hired, and I am really happy to see you again......"
Vickers's words can basically be omitted, and the highlight is the projection at the back.
Just watched David click a few times on his tablet, and the yellow halo was immediately projected in front of everyone, and an old man with a dog slowly walked out of it.
"My name is Pete Wieland, and I'm your employer. This video was recorded on June 22, 2091, and if you're watching, you've arrived at your destination.
I may die young, and may I rest in peace. Today there is a man among you, and his name is David. He's like my supposed son, but alas, he's not human. He won't grow old and he won't die, because he needs one thing that David doesn't have, and that's the soul.
Since he has no soul, then why do we have souls?
I've spent my life searching for these answers, where do we come from? What happens to us when we die? Finally two people convinced me that the answer was within reach, Holloway and Dr. Shaw, please get up. ”
The male and female protagonists of this film stood up with some restraint, and Wieland continued to speak.
"As far as I know, they were in charge of the operation. Prometheus, the Titan, wanted to give humans the same status as the gods, and for this, he was expelled from the Olympic Mountains, my friend, the time has finally come for the gods to return, doctors, please. ”
With that, Wieland turned around, and the projected body quickly disappeared.
After that, it was the turn of the male and female protagonists of this film, and what they wanted to talk about was basically some evidence theories and the like.
To summarize what they said, the specific meaning is that the two lords discovered the star map left by the aliens, and they believed that it was the creator of mankind, so they came to this planet across the galaxy countless light years away.
Aliens are the creators of humanity, that's right, and it's true, of course, only in this world.
Regarding this, Jiang Jiu and other people who have watched the film are very clear.
However, the human beings of this world are not clear.
Naturally, both men's tirades were interrupted and mercilessly mocked.
Including Vickers, the overseer of this operation, did not give a good look.
How is it possible for any human being to believe that they were created?
But no matter how much they interrupted, no matter how ridiculous they were, this time their task was still to follow these two people to explore the creator who "didn't exist" at all, which was an order from their employer, and they could only obey it.
After the male and female protagonists finished speaking, they left with David and Vickers.
The contractors looked at each other and chose to leave.
Everyone has a ghost in their hearts, and it's unnecessary to get too close at this time, and they have to prepare for the backhand.
No one wants to die, including the blue-level ......
