Chapter 151: On the use of aliens
For the transformation of the alien, before setting off for Earth, Fang Zheng had already discussed it with Milune, and had a general idea.
In the "Alien" series, the alien itself has a system, the alien queen is responsible for laying eggs, and the eggs give birth to face-hugging worms, which then attack the host, and then give birth to aliens, and then the aliens use this to expand the population.
But in Mirune's view, this ecological cycle of aliens is both primitive and inefficient. Although the Xenomorph can absorb the host's excellent genes and improve it, it is completely different from the Zerg. Zerg are active in collecting and absorbing excellent genes. The alien is passively absorbed, which can be said to be a bit like a big luck, the host is what the alien is like, and although the fecundity of the alien is high, the inheritance of genes has not been preserved. This approach may be an effective way to spread the risk at the beginning of a race, and to find the best evolutionary path by devouring the host's superior genes to modify itself, but it is meaningless if these excellent genes cannot be fused.
It's like a computer, and I finally installed a lot of software and optimized it, but I have to reinstall it with a new computer. This so-called gene phagocytosis efficiency, Milune can't even look at it.
So in the end, Fang Zheng and Mi Luen decided to optimize the original genes of the opposite sex, eliminating the useless things such as the face-hugging worm and the alien queen, and only needed the normal body of the alien.
Fangzheng's requirements for aliens are to lurk, assassinate, and then explode. It's like a virus, which lurks in the body of ordinary people without any abnormalities at first, then quietly spreads and spreads, and then erupts into a deadly plague that completely sweeps everything away. Therefore, the aliens adjusted by Mirune and Lulana will also change drastically.
First of all, the form of the alien is fixed to the battle alien, that is, the black mature form of the whole body in "Alien vs. Predator", which will no longer change due to the change of host, which is also a sign that the alien is completely integrated into the swarm. Secondly, the four dorsal tubes behind the xenomorph have also been transformed into spike-like existences that resemble stinging snakes. This allows the xenomorphs not only to hunt at close range, but also to launch sneak attacks from a distance like a stinging snake.
The most terrifying thing about the aliens is their ability to reproduce, and Mirune is even better at this. Originally, the alien reproduction method was because the alien eggs needed to be fused with the host's genes and optimized, but after the Zerg transformation, the alien lost this ability, so the original face-hugging insect also lost its meaning. Conversely, the Xenomorphs who have been modified by the Swarm have an even more terrifying ability to reproduceβββ and when they attack, they will inject a genetic virus into the body of their enemies, as long as they are scratched, bitten, or stabbed by the Xenomorph.
After that, these xenoviruses that have been modified by the swarm will begin to frantically devour the host's body nutrients, and they will not distinguish between life and death. This also means that once you are injured by an alien, whether you are dead or alive, you will become the host of the alien, thus producing a new alien.
To be honest, Fang Zheng's whole person was cold when he heard Mi Luen's idea, if the alien had this ability, then he would have made a fart series of movies, I'm afraid it wouldn't have been for humans and iron-blooded people who would have died a long time ago!
From this, it is no wonder that the Zerg will become the overlord of the universe, and the Xenomorph can only run the trick in the movie......... It's fate.
ββ¦β¦β¦οΌοΌβ
Just when Fang Zheng was idle and bored to let himself go, suddenly, the originally dim hall began to brighten, and electricity emerged from the chains, striking the Alien Empress's body. Seeing this scene, Fang Zheng also immediately concentrated and looked ahead.
"Roar.........!!"
At this moment, the Alien Empress roared wildly, its genes had been completely transformed by Lulana, and the current Alien Empress had lost its original power. Her massive body began to rise and fall incessantly, and under the stimulation of the electric current, new life forms began to take shape in its body.
ββββοΌοΌ βββοΌοΌ β
Feeling that the power in her body was disappearing, the Alien Empress also began to shake her body frantically in an attempt to break free from the restraints, but the chains used by Iron and Blood to bind her naturally would not be so easily broken. Soon, with a terrible wail, the alien empress in front of Fang Fang suddenly struggled, and then collapsed like this, never to react again. And then, the back of her large, egg-laying abdomen burst open with a "poof". Then, Fang Zheng saw several larvae "happily" jumping out of it, spinning around in front of the corpse of the Alien Empress.
"Only three?"
Looking at the larva in front of him, Fang Zheng frowned, and then looked at Lulana beside him.
"The test subject itself is too weak to raise more larvae."
It's also said that this alien queen hasn't eaten for more than a hundred years, and she has been frozen here, and she was forced to give birth to another wave just now, I'm afraid her stomach has long been empty.
"Let's start hatching."
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng didn't say anything, but shrugged his shoulders. With the power of the ghost, he had seen three Predators who had come to take the "exam" leave the mothership and come to this ice field. And then, as expected, these Predators will start to be incomparable.
Let's put them to the test of the power of the swarm aliens.
Man is brave because he is ignorant.
At the same time that the larvae were hatching, the expedition team sponsored by Weyland Industries to dig up the "mystery of human history" had also arrived at the interior of the pyramid, and if they knew that there were terrible monsters under the pyramid that were planning to attack them, or that there were invisible aliens behind them who were planning to use their heads for loot, they would have been even more nervous.
Unfortunately, they don't know anything about it.
"Nimfu, close the door."
Seeing that the group of explorers was walking towards the hall, Fang Zheng raised his eyebrows, and then immediately gave the order to Nimfu. In the movie, everyone entered this hall and got the Predator's weapon that triggered the whole trial. But what Fang Zheng has to test at the moment is the strength gap between his own swarm alien and the Predator. An unarmed Predator is not a good test subject, so he certainly wouldn't let the dead take the Predator's weapon.
"Yes, master."
Hearing Fangzheng's order, Nimfu, who was staying in the spaceship, immediately reached out and tapped lightly on the keyboard in front of him.
"Boom...!"
"What's wrong? What happened? β
The explorers were also shocked by the sudden shaking and noise, and then they saw that the stone door in the hall in front of them was falling rapidly!
"Oh no, let's get in!"
The woman in charge hurried towards the falling stone door, trying to rush into the hall before the stone door closed completely. But it's a pity that her speed is still not as fast as the stone gate closing, and when the woman rushed to the stone gate, the entire gate has been completely closed with a "boom".
"Damn it!"
Looking at the closed stone door in front of her, the woman slammed down the wall. And the group of frightened scientists next to them also came back to their senses at this time, and looked around tremblingly.
"What's wrong? What's going on? β
"That's all for today."
Ignoring everyone's panic, the woman in charge of the team shouted, then pointed to her watch.
"We must go back to camp at once, it's obviously not safe here, and if we get trapped here, it's going to be a problem!"
"This ............"
Hearing the woman's words, everyone showed hesitant expressions, and then they turned their heads to look at the old man walking in the middle of the crowd. In the movie, it is in this hall that they find the Predator's weapon and begin their path to death. But now, these people don't know what's inside, so they are not so resistant to the woman's orders.
"Okay......... Let's go back first.........."
In the face of everyone's inquiring eyes, the old man thought for a moment, and then nodded. Obviously, he didn't feel safe either. After hearing the old man's answer, the woman also breathed a sigh of relief, then took out the walkie-talkie and began to call for the people who stayed in the other room.
"This is Team A, we're going back to camp, what's your doing? Answer, please? β
"This is Team B! We're locked up in here! β
"What?"
Everyone was taken aback when they heard the answer on the radio.
"Is anyone hurt?"
"No, but this place the hell......... Hurry up and find a way to get us out! Wait, there's something like it......... Damn, what is this? Be careful! β
"Bang bang!!"
"Team B? Team B?!! β
Hearing the screams and gunfire over the radio, everyone was also taken aback, and they hurried to the sacrificial tomb, only to find that it was indeed sealed by a heavy stone door, and could not be opened at all.
In desperation, they had no choice but to return to the camp first, intending to take out the explosives and blow up the stone gate directly. After making their decision, the group left the pyramid in a panic, unaware that three transparent figures passed by them.
And so it was.
Seeing this scene through the ghost, Fang Zheng also nodded, it seems that for the three Predators, it is more important to complete the exam at present. In the movie, when the weapon was taken away, these Predators didn't kill an old man like Wayland, so now that they didn't take the weapon, the Predator won't go to trouble them.
Soon, under Fangzheng's watchful eye, the Predators made their way through the passage to the hall, where they easily opened the sealed door, then opened the sarcophagus, and took out their own weapons.
And at this moment, the trial officially begins.
