Chapter 325: Come to my room
With Hollowway and Elizabeth Shaw on either side of him, Peter Weyland finally concluded: "You guys get started." ”
With that, Peter Weiland, on crutches, turned away with his pet dog, and as he left, the holographic projection also ended, revealing the original appearance of the playground.
"Wow, well, I've never seen a ghost speak."
As if he wasn't used to being watched by so many people, Hollowway made a sneer to himself, tossing the Rubik's cube-like object back and forth in his left and right hands.
Noticing the cold reaction of the others, Hollowaway raised the Rubik's Cube in his hand and said, "Okay, let's see why we're here." ”
This little thing, which looks like a Rubik's cube, is actually an instrument with storage and projection functions. Haloway placed the Rubik's Cube on the ground, clicked on it a few times, and then several images that gave a very old feeling were projected and displayed in front of everyone.
"These are images from archaeological collections from all over the world, Egyptians, Mayans, Sumerians, Babylonians and, finally, Mesopotamians," says Hollowaway. ”
Haloway gestured to a picture in the middle and said, "This is a 35,000-year-old cave painting that we recently found on an island in Scotland. ”
"These ancient civilizations, centuries apart from each other, have no connection. However, these same images show that humans worship a giant creature. Each of these stars shows the same thing. ”
"The only information that matches this star map is so far away from Earth that these ancient Earth civilizations didn't know it existed, but it happened."
The image projected by the Rubik's cube changed with Hollowaway's presentation, showing the appearance of a starry sky.
"In the galaxy represented by that star map, there is a sun, much like our solar system. Longwave scans revealed a planet that supports life on one of its moons, and here we are today. ”
By the time Harloway and Elizabeth Shaw began their demonstration, Meredith Vickers had already left the front of the crowd and casually came to the back of the crowd, lacking interest in the demonstration of the two in front of them.
"This kind of scene makes me feel like I'm back in a college classroom."
Meredith Vickers stopped behind his side, and Ye Qianhu, who had finally stopped in a daze, looked at the demonstration in front of him and said softly.
Meredith Vickers knew that he was talking to himself, smiled indifferently, and sarcastically said, "It's surprising that you still have the experience of a college class." ”
"You're really discriminatory." Ye Qianhu said.
"Do you need me to apologize?"
"Will you apologize?" Ye Qianhu leaned sideways and looked at Meredith Vickers.
The other party shook his head decisively, "No." ”
Smiling, Ye Qianhu asked softly, "You don't seem to be interested in this?" ”
Meredith Vickers glanced at him and said, "Because I know every detail of this plan." ”
"It should be said that Peter Weyland let you know every detail." Ye Qianhu said with a smile.
With a cold snort, Meredith Vickers said coldly, "Don't confuse the relationship between us. ”
In front of the crowd, Hollowaway and Elizabeth Shaw continue to explain their findings, as well as speculation, and what they believe to be, the engineer who created humanity.
Ye Qianhu chatted with Meredith Vickers one after another, but his mind was thinking about this world.
The compensation that Lilith had spoken of, he felt more and more that it was not so good.
Although it is not like in other worlds, there is a clear mission, but this time the restrictions on him are even greater, and the biggest reason for this restriction is still from himself.
Because of the "future" he has already experienced, history must remain on a normal trajectory, at least, this part of it must not be changed.
This time, there are too many restrictions on him, and it is impossible for him to change the course of the story at will as he once did, without thinking too much about cause and effect.
Moreover, from another point of view, since the world of "Alien 4" he experienced did not conflict with the plot shown in the movie, it also shows that he in "Prometheus" did let history develop according to a normal trajectory.
Since history needs to be kept in its place, it seems that it is a good choice for him to leave here directly. At least, you don't have to experience that kind of helplessness, knowing that a lot of things are going to happen, and having the ability to rewrite them, but you can't do that.
Unfortunately, he would need to stay in this world for at least five days before he could choose to stay here again or leave.
Not to mention five days, according to the plot in the movie, until the story that happened on this planet came to an end, it actually only took about two days.
During this time, he can only play the role of a witness.
On the plus side, though, in this restrictive world of Prometheus, he also has access to a lot of tech.
For example, the planet LV-223 they are about to land on is a military base belonging to the engineer, although this military base was abandoned due to the leakage of biological weapons two thousand years ago, but the technology in it is far beyond the level of human technology today, compared to the world he has experienced before, even more so.
In that military base, there is more than one spaceship belonging to the engineer, in addition, there must be other scientific and technological products in the base, these things are of great value to Ye Qianhu, if you don't take all these things away, it will be too tyrannical.
If we talk about advanced technology, today's earth, as well as the home planet of engineers, must have more wealth. Unfortunately, the two were too far away from where he was now.
It took two years for the spacecraft to travel from Earth to the planet LV-223. Although you only need to stay in the dormant chamber and get a good night's sleep, you can still get to your destination, but the energy points are still deducted.
Moreover, it was clearly not worth his two-year stay. With all this time, perhaps he can already experience many high-tech worlds.
It's just that the military base that can only be obtained is enough to make Ye Qianhu's trip worthwhile.
On the other side, the introduction of Hollowway and Elizabeth Shaw had come to an end, Meredith Vickers didn't notice that Ye Qianhu was dual-minded when talking to her, hesitated for a moment, and suddenly whispered: "Wait in my room, ten minutes later." ”
Ye Qianhu was stunned for a moment, looked at Meredith Vickers with a normal face, and said with a smile: "Is this an employee benefit?" ”
"Shut up!"
Meredith said lightly and left Ye Qianhu's side directly.
