Chapter 319: Entering Prometheus

When it comes to "Prometheus", and the "Alien" series after that, there is a name that can never be ignored, of course, not the Emperor, but Weland, Weland, Inc.

Just like in many movies, there will always be a behind-the-scenes mastermind who is dominating the story, whether explicitly or covertly, and being strong and pervasive seems to have become their basic attributes, especially since many of them still have an unswerving spirit of death, in line with the disposition of not dying or living, knowing that something is very dangerous, but still unswervingly chasing it, and often reaping the consequences in the end.

In the world corresponding to "Alien", the Weyland Company plays such a role, and it is not accurate to say that the Weeland Company is not accurate, because the company that did everything possible to study the alien but was eventually destroyed by the heroine every time was called the Weyland-Yuya Company.

At the time when the Prometheus Project was launched, the Weedland Company had not yet merged with the Yuya Company, and the pure Weeland Company before that time had a very positive image in the world in which he lived, and it was not an exaggeration to call it the greatest company.

Weeland & Co. was incorporated in the United States on November 11, 2012 by its founder, Peter Weland.

Then, under the leadership of genius scientist Peter Weland, the Weyland Company began his similar journey.

The company's first project after its establishment was to install solar panels in space, which are axially inclined to the Earth's orbit to simulate the permanent summer solstice, enjoy the longest sunshine hours throughout the year, and maximize the intake of solar resources.

A year later, Peter Weyland invented the Atmospheric Handler, capable of synthesizing an atmosphere above the polar ice cap, effectively ending global warming.

In 2017, it acquired the rights to NASA's NASA technology development to allow independent space exploration, and with the launch of the space exploration project, the first signs of life were found on Europa, and Peter Weyland first proposed the idea of the "Prometheus" program.

In 2022, Wieland's health department deciphered the genetic chain of more than 98% of cancers and used genetically modified cells that could cure almost all cancers on the planet.

The following year, Peter Weyland proposed the idea of "Building a Better World" in a public lecture, setting the company's 50-year development plan and proposing the android project for the first time.

In the 64 years from 2023 to 2090, the company has made a series of amazing achievements, including the development of androids and subsequent improvements, the Weeland Storm Pulse Rifle, which is the electromagnetic pulse rifle in the late Xenomorph series, the cryo-hibernation system, the fully automated atmosphere processor, the lunar colonization program, the faster than the speed of light transmission mode FTL, the space exploration spacecraft, the mechanical exoskeleton, the biological pod, and the fully automated diagnostic and surgical platform Medpod The 720i, 3D live for 3D images of any region can be drawn live, and so on.

There are so many scientific and technological products, it is like listing all the high-tech products in various science fiction movies, but these are all developed by Weland, and they are only the more representative works of Weland's various products.

In particular, the Weeland Corporation almost dominated, the era of interstellar development for the entire human race.

It is definitely not an exaggeration to conclude from these achievements that the Weeland Company is a company that has opened its name.

It's a pity that Peter Weeland's Prometheus plan became a turning point for Weeland's great company.

The failure of Prometheus not only led to the loss of a trillion dollars in investment, but also the death of the company's founder, Peter Weeland, and the company's CEO, Meredith Weeks, on the planet LV-223, leaving the Weeland company leaderless.

In an effort to reverse the dire situation, Charles, the current president of the Weedland Corporation, merged with his former rival, Japan's Yutani Corporation, to form the Welander-Yutani Company, and increased investment in the biotechnology division.

This move can be said to be the starting point of Weland's degeneration from a great company to a black company.

And it is ironic that this so-called Yutani Company once copied the cyborg of the Weyland Company, but was eventually defeated by the Welander Company through years of litigation.

After that, it was the era of the "Alien" series of that world. After years of chasing aliens, the Weland-Yutani company finally succeeded in playing itself to waste, and was finally acquired by Wal-Mart Group, a company that had existed for more than 300 years, and finally collapsed.

Therefore, in the end, a department store group became the final winner, which is really a wonderful ending.

Then, it's about the aliens in that world.

Although they belong to the same world, at least for now, Ye Qianhu is not sure that the aliens in "Prometheus" and those monsters in the "Aliens" series are the same kind.

In the first installment of the Alien series, it was already established that the ship piloted by the Engineer that Ripley found on the planet LV-426 had indeed left the Engineer military base on the planet LV-223, and before the military base was destroyed for some reason.

On the way to a certain location, the Facehug loses control, killing the Engineer and causing the ship to crash-land on the planet LV-426.

Before all of them were killed, the Engineer sent out a warning message, which was also the signal received by the human ship in the first part of Alien, and mistook it for a distress signal, resulting in a face-hugging bug attack.

The alien in this spaceship is the type we are familiar with, and it is also the alien that Ye Qianhu hunted in the world of "Alien 4". The alien embryo is injected into the human body through the face-hugging worm, and after maturing in the human body, it breaks open the chest and appears.

However, the aliens shown in "Prometheus" are very different.

On the planet LV-223 where the Prometheus spacecraft landed, the black liquid that the protagonists find sealed in a container is more like a strange biological weapon.

For example, you can turn those worms into snake-shaped monsters, and after entering the human body, you can turn humans into terrifying beings like zombies, and through the conception of the heroine's body, they can grow into a creature similar to a squid.

Eventually, the new host engineer continued to breed into something similar to the xenomorph we are familiar with.

The two aliens on LV-223 and LV-426 are definitely related, but as for the specific relationship between each other, such as whether they are two versions of the same biological weapon, or whether one of them is the original version of the other, Ye Qianhu has no way of knowing, and can only make some guesses.

However, there is no need to delve too deeply into this kind of thing, after all, he is about to enter the world of "Prometheus", and he will definitely be able to find the answer in it after entering the military base of the Engineers on the planet LV-223, and even obtaining further research materials from them.

For this world that is about to open, Ye Qianhu doesn't need to make any special preparations, his system space has enough equipment for him to deal with most situations.

And on the side of the Resident Evil world, at least for a short time, Ye Qianhu doesn't have anything to do, in this case, it is better to enter the world of "Prometheus", well, it should be a very interesting journey.

"Lilith."

In her mind, Lilith immediately responded, "Are you going to start a new mission world?" ”

Sitting on a chair in the cabin of the plane, Ye Qianhu confirmed: "Open the world of Prometheus." ”

Then, Ye Qianhu suddenly lost consciousness.
