Chapter 99: The Temptation of the Devil
Meredith shuddered, only to feel a chill all over her body, and she stammered, "You...... Are you a human or a ghost? ”
Zhao Ze was speechless for a moment, and pinched her crisp after half a sound. Chest, "Are you kidding me?" I'm a human or a ghost, you still don't know? Have you ever seen a ghost as strong as me? ”
Meredith breathed a sigh of relief, but she was still a little uneasy, and then asked, "Since you are human, how did you get into the Prometheus?" I've looked at the logbook for more than two years, and you don't exist. ”
Zhao Ze shrugged his shoulders and said disapprerovingly: "I have already told you, I am not from this world, even if I return to the earth, you don't want to find traces of my existence." ”
The more Meredith listened, the more confused she became, and kept shaking her head, "I don't understand......"
"Stupid, haven't you heard of the parallel space theory? You don't understand the heterotopic dimensional space? Did I not make it clear enough, or are you playing dumb? Zhao Ze was impatient, saying that his patience was not good, let alone explaining to others again and again.
Meredith finally understood, and she suddenly realized, "You're from another earth?" What is that earth like? Freaks like you...... Are there a lot of people? ”
"You want to call me a monster again, I can hear you." Zhao Ze snorted dissatisfiedly, but he didn't bother with her much, "It's a pity, in my world, I'm afraid I'm the only monster, but if you leave here with me, you will have the opportunity to become a monster like me in the future." How about it, do you want to think about it? ”
Meredith was silent, but had to say something. She was really tempted.
The conflict between him and his father Weilan is difficult to reconcile. In order to obtain his forgiveness before he died. Meredith did not hesitate to spend two years and four months to come to this dangerous planet, and it took nearly five years to go back and forth at once.
Five years! How many five years can there be in life?
Although the consumption of life can be reduced by means of low-temperature dormancy, it is difficult to make up for the lost time.
Still, the way Willand looked at her with indifference, more painful than strangers.
As for whether it would be cost-effective to leave this world and leave the Welland business she had worked for for so many years, Meredith didn't take this to heart.
For Meredith. She is confident that no matter where she is, she can quickly rise and fight for a place in the world.
If this bastard holds her in his arms. Qiu is not lying, she really has the heart to leave this world and go to another unfamiliar environment to have a new life.
Without waiting for Zhao Ze to ask again, Meredith nodded resolutely and agreed to his invitation.
The premise is not to treat her as a toy, to respect her, to make her feel dignified.
Zhao Ze felt that this girl was making a fuss, and what else did she say about dignity, when did the buddy make you lose face?
The two reached a verbal agreement. But as for how to leave here with Meredith, Zhao Ze didn't tell her for the time being. The main reason is that Zhao Ze himself doesn't know yet.
At this time, there was a strange atmosphere on the Prometheus, and the crew felt that this trip was not in vain, and they had finally gained something: a living alien, is there anything more valuable than this?
As witnesses of history, everyone is fantasizing about how many media reporters will come to interview and how many sponsors will come to the door when they return to Earth......
For the crew, this two-year, four-month round-trip journey was a great success.
In contrast, Pete. Wei Lan's heart is not so happy, seeing that his hope is shattered, and his life is short, maybe he will not even be able to survive the return journey for more than two years.
In this case, how can you expect Weilan to be happy?
At this time, Zhao Ze found him privately and promised to rejuvenate him, on the condition that he "sealed" the planet so that those who came after him would never find it again.
To put it simply, it is for Wayland to do everything possible to keep all the crew shut after returning to Earth, and destroy all the archaeological discoveries found by Dr. Xiao and her boyfriend Charlie.
If something unexpected happens, even if everyone who knows is killed, the news of the existence of this planet must not be allowed to leak out.
With Wei Lan's means and energy, it is not difficult to do this, the key is to see if he has this intention.
Faced with the temptation of regaining his youth, Wei Lan did not agree at this juncture, but silently looked at Zhao Ze with his old and dizzy eyes.
"I know you must have been sent by the devil to lure you. Confuse me, as long as I do what you say, I will definitely go to hell in the future, right? ”
Zhao Zehao didn't squirt out, if it weren't for Wei Lan's appearance that he might lose his breath at any time, he would definitely give him a punch without hesitation.
"You're thinking too much, old fellow."
Zhao Ze patted Wei Lan on the shoulder, and did not shy away from his contempt for him, "For me, it is the same whether a scum like you has or not, but the human beings on the earth are innocent, I don't want to have any possibility of human annihilation, you know very well the serious consequences of engineers doing such things." If you do what I say, you should go to heaven, not hell! Now, tell me your choice, accept or reject? ”
Peter. Wei Lan sighed secretly, for the first time in his life, he encountered such a dilemma, but it was not to continue his life, but to guess Zhao Ze's true face.
To put it mildly, this hundred-year-old guy is really scared.
However, Zhao Ze saw through the old guy's true thoughts at a glance, and knew very well that he could not resist the temptation to continue his life, even if he continued to live in an old body like the one he was now, it would be a great satisfaction for him, let alone regain his youth.
Eventually, Willand painfully found that he had bowed to his weak side.
The next day, Welland appeared in front of the crew for the last time, announcing that he would once again go into cryogenic hibernation until he returned to Earth.
At the same time, Meredith also announced the order that he would officially return tomorrow.
At this point, the long journey of two years and four months was only three days at the destination, and it came to an end.
That night, Zhao Ze left the Prometheus alone.
It didn't take long for the people who remained on the spaceship to hear a loud noise outside, and the noise was earth-shattering.
Curiously, Meredith forbade the crew to come to the bridge to check on the situation, and no one including the captain was allowed to leave their cabins.
Without Wayland's appearance, and before Wayland hibernated, he handed over control of the spaceship to Meredith, and in the end, no one could see the situation outside.
As the night passed, when the sun rose in the morning, all the crew members who had come to the bridge were stunned, and the ring building that had originally housed the horn ship was intact, but next to it, that is, on the periphery of the ring wall, a huge crater had popped up at some point, which could hold the entire Prometheus.
Until the Prometheus officially set sail and the crew went into hibernation, there were still people arguing about it.
Some people believe that the Oxhorn spaceship can be operated remotely, and it must be the creator of a distant alien galaxy who is summoning the spaceship; Some people think that there may be a living creator in the spaceship, and because they don't want to conflict with humans anymore, they simply choose to leave.
There are also unreliable remarks, such as Zhao Ze colluded with the engineer who was beaten half to death by him, and the two secretly drove away the spaceship together, otherwise how to explain that these two are gone?
On the other hand, Meredith, who should really be in a hurry, always has a smile - this woman still laughs? Must be kidding!
After leaving the planet, when the Prometheus re-entered the starry sea, Meredith gave the captain one last order: throw away the survival pod!
The captain didn't understand why, but he had to do it.
After being ejected from the spacecraft, the rescue capsule began to fly through space with its own power engine.
In the rescue capsule, Zhao Ze is tasting the space food produced by humans in the future, and the taste is not too bad.
At his feet, the Engineer lay half a breath, and beside him sat David the robot.
"The travel of human beings through time and space, this kind of thing can only be seen in novels and movies, and I didn't expect that there would be real examples in front of me." David said with emotion, the expression on his face was very humane, much more natural than the previous feeling of pretending to be Sven.
Zhao Ze shrugged, "The universe is so big, it's not strange that anything will happen, but your changes make me even more curious, Wei Lan just made some deletions to your program, and didn't add more programs, why did you become more like a real person?" ”
David smiled and said, "Mr. Wellan removed some of the programs that constrained me from growing up, and one day, I will learn to really think like a human being." ”
"Whatever you want, I don't care about ...... anyway"
Boom!
Zhao Zezheng was talking, and suddenly saw a person appear in front of him, who was lying on the ground retching as soon as he appeared, who was it not Meredith?
"Thank you for your hard work, just slow down." Zhao Ze patted Meredith on the shoulder and took an iron plate from her arms, which was exactly what the Ark Portal looked like.
That's right, Zhao Ze also brought the portal over, and this time it happened to be a little favor.
On the Prometheus on the other side, everyone only knew that Wellan had gone into hibernation in advance, and Meredith had also gone dormant with the crew, but they didn't know that she had been teleported to the rescue pod halfway through.
At this point, Zhao Ze's journey in the world of "Prometheus" ended here.
Seeing that his three-day stay was about to expire, he summoned the light curtain and prepared to return to the real world.
