Chapter 214: The Past: On the Importance of Plot Opening
If you ask a person what they should do so that they don't regret it, the answer is actually quite simple. Many people will tell you, ah, the thing I regret the most back then was so-and-so, but I think the least regretful thing is to follow your heart. But in fact, for anyone, no matter what he has done, in the distant future, he will regret it, but he has to add a word to it, which is called... Maybe.
Wen Zhong didn't know what everyone's opinion of regret was in this script, but he was very sure that Benjamin in front of him had a lot to regret.
But when it comes to the thing he regrets the most, it is the complete explosion of aliens seven years ago.
Regarding the huge background setting of "Alien World", there are many hidden and open plots, but Wen Zhong definitely doesn't know about some of the little things that some key characters have done in the complete explosion of aliens.
In the big plot of the setting, the spaceship piloted by Ripley did not follow the scheduled course, but returned to Earth orbit in the third week outside the scheduled time, and floated in Earth orbit for a week without communication, and finally crashed into a lake west of Los Angeles.
News of the crash was hidden, and a large number of troops cordoned off the nearby area, but they were greeted by an alien formation. A spacecraft, a spaceship of thirty people, all became sacrifices for alien reproduction. No one knows exactly what's going on, maybe the company behind it is in the mood for a prequel or something, but in this script, these guys treat an entire army of people as a sacrifice for racial reproduction.
But the government at that time did not choose to use the ultimate "nuclear leveling" means, an alien cosmic creature, a strong body, sharp fangs, let the leaders of the free country at that time see the new weapons in the war. At that time, the fool's thoughts were roughly like this: Aha, we have the most powerful army on this planet, we are the most powerful country on this planet, and powerful cosmic beings from the outer lands must be able to use us and become sharper minions on the battlefield.
Admittedly, one of the leaders in this script has an accurate positioning of humanity, well... At the top of the food chain on this planet, it is possible to enslave any species except humans. But he overlooked that the aliens didn't belong to one of the links in the food chain.
The ambition of vain enslavement was completely shattered as the "messengers" threw themselves into the cities where the humans were located under the cover of the "sentinels". A large number of aliens killed indiscriminately in the city caused panic, and the alien mothers at this stage were highly prolific like sows, laying an unknown number of eggs.
Then there is the show time, and according to the needs of the plot, the government at that time still wants to enslave these alien creatures. The end result is simple, the first to fall is naturally the so-called free country. All in all, the country has once again ushered in the end of the alien apocalypse after countless tragic endings such as the apocalypse, alien invasion, and human self-destruction in the history of cinema since the movie appeared.
By the time people from other countries sensed that something was wrong, countless aliens had already climbed to other continents. At this time, when the "stupid humans" want to use "nuclear means" to solve the culprit of this catastrophe, they find that they have no idea where the mother body is. All those who know the truth are disappearing without a trace. It is only natural that, with the exception of Australia, which is isolated overseas, the alien army has invaded all continents.
Countless humans have become food for the aliens, but many more have become hosts for the aliens to reproduce. After a series of tragic casualties, humanity began to have a strategy to deal with it, and a weapon to fight it. But at this time, it was too late, and the birth of the "PVD Lord" allowed the alien army, which only had the hunting instinct, to learn to use tactics.
In the fourth year of the alien ravaging the land, while the human front was losing ground and had to go underground, a small incident happened near Los Angeles, a small thing that could have made this script non-existent. Among the participants in this little event was our Benjamin.
The reason for the incident is very simple, those who knew the truth disappeared for the sake of the plot arrangement. But no one knows if they are dead or hiding. Obviously, this is an old routine that the producer needs to use in order to use it in the future, but I have to say that it is very effective.
A resistance army located near the brood was about to leave with everyone when they accidentally found an underground shelter. When the vault was opened, it was discovered that the people inside were dead, and the only survivor had gone insane. But the leader of the Resistance at the time discovered that this madman was one of the people who knew about the alien landing.
Well, the next plot is very cliché. The leader found a useful clue from the madman's crazy words, and the spaceship that Ripley sent back did not stop running, and although most of it crashed, the host program was still there. Years passed, and the program fell asleep, and as long as it was able to wake up the main program, and then after some jumbled jargon, it was able to overload the main program and detonate the core that provided the spaceship with energy. In terms of specific power, it is probably greater than two neutron bombs.
In order to show that the plot is more nonsense, the leader of this resistance army entrusted the team to the second-in-command at the time very righteously, and he led twelve death squads who were willing to go together to touch the alien brood. Just as the plot opened the way for the alien invasion at the beginning, this time the plot also opened the way for this death squad.
The Death Squad managed to get into the Alien Brood, but they were not able to find the command room, which was always a bit large for a team of thirteen people, and the Messenger who had been evading patrols along the way, the Death Squad had not been able to find the control room in the mouth of any madman.
Instead, one of the members' carelessness alarms the aliens guarding the brood. The final result is naturally self-evident, there is no such thing as Wen Zhong among these people. After being chased like dogs throughout the whole process, the death squad suffered losses, and in the end only three people escaped into a passage, and not surprisingly, there was still our Benjamin among the three people.
There is only a huge room at the end of the passage, but it is the goal of this daredevil, to explore the power core of the ship. They were overjoyed, and after some tossing and turning, they were saddened to find that they had run out of ammunition and had no power to detonate this.
When this power core was first built, the periphery protection was exceptionally strong, and the outcome naturally caused these three people to use external forces to detonate the core as a luxury. In the end, for the sake of subsequent development, one of the three people stayed behind in exchange for the chance of survival of the other two companions, and these two people are now Hans and Benjamin.
