Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Engineer
"Open the dormant pod of this living engineer, we're going to ask him something. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info "Rather than pondering alone, it's better to ask the last party, what the hell is going on, he can't run anyway, and the robot that is controlled on the scene is not the kind of David who makes people tear by hand, and he has a guy in his hand.
After a few clicks on the control panel next to it, the translucent protective cover on it fell, the hose attached to the engineer fell off, and the engineer who had been asleep for an unknown amount of time gradually woke up. The pitted stuff on his body was not the engineer's own skin, but their spacesuit, which matched their own characteristics, but made Zhao Yang and the scientists and soldiers who controlled the robot behind them feel disgusting.
The Engineer was tall and strong at the same time, and the robots present stood in a circle with weapons in their hands and watched.
The engineer woke up from a long hiatus and looked at the robots around him with a little puzzled, his strong physique made him recover quickly, and he was overwhelmed by the robots that clearly did not appear to be of his own race, and at the same time looked like weapons in his hands.
The robot has a weapon in his hand, the engineer race is not good at fighting, as a civilization that has stepped into the stars, so obvious weapons can still be distinguished, even if his spacesuit can withstand bullets, his big white bald head can't resist.
"Here, let me introduce myself, we are earthlings from a parallel world, and you may not know that the planet you are going to carry the black solution to. For safety reasons, we didn't board your ship, we boarded robots that we controlled. ”
While talking, he also used projection to introduce that after all, the earth is the hometown in the hearts of the earthlings and the birthplace of the earthlings. But this is not the case in the Engineer's concept of cultural knowledge, and Earth is an alien planet that they are going to and may need to destroy.
First of all, after the concept is clear, it is much easier to communicate.
"We come from a parallel world, we want to know everything about your race, knowledge and culture, and why you want this black water to come about, we want to know, and we hope that you, the last survivor, can answer for us."
The engineer didn't speak, Zhao Yang also understood what the engineer meant, and with a gesture, one of the robots with a gun fired at the wall of the spaceship, and in an instant, a small hole burned in the wall of the spaceship, and then the rest of the robots pointed their guns at the engineer, and the red laser pointers on it were all aimed at the engineer's bare head, and the meaning was already obvious.
"I don't understand what you mean." The engineer seems to be very cooperative, there is no way that there are so many guns that do not cooperate with the ghost.
"In layman's terms, what you see is our creation, just as the humans on that planet in this world are your creation, but we were not created by you, you know. If you don't understand, watch the movie. ”
In the movie, the heroine Elizabeth Shaw wants to use David's translator to ask the engineer why he wants to destroy humanity, but the engineer does not answer and puts people down one by one.
David led the scientist Charlie to say, "Why do you think you created cyborgs?" ”
"Because we can."
The same is true of the Engineer's meaning, why create humanity because it can, why destroy humanity because he can do the same, although in the end he wants to play with it.
In the movie, when the engineer looks at his own creation human and brings his own creation biochemical David to meet him, he must have mixed feelings, because his creation has caught up with him to some extent, and there is a vague tendency to surpass himself. When he despises the things he has created, he is also afraid, so he also has the idea of killing human beings, because it will surpass and threaten his own existence.
Prometheus's entire film secretly combines the world background of some Western religions, and the engineer decomposes himself by drinking a black solution, and then the matter is recombined to evolve into human beings.
The humans that evolved were beyond the expectations of the engineer race, and the humans they created were unplanned intelligent life; Or they deliberately created humans, but the development of human beings exceeded their estimates, and then produced fear and rejection, and when humans came to them in their own spaceships, the remaining humans were determined to destroy the world.
When the Engineer boarded the Prometheus to find Elizabeth Shaw and saw the effects played in the spaceship, he still looked at the culture and music created by humans with an emotion called appreciation, but after discovering Elizabeth's movements, he turned to anger.
After the movie was played, the remaining engineer couldn't calm down for a long time, although they waited for two hours, everyone was quite comfortable to see the incomprehensible expression on the engineer's face, and the comfortable psychologist went up for treatment and continued to communicate as usual.
"You're from another world?"
"That's right, that's right, in the cognition of the earthlings of the other world, there are many races that surpass you in strength, and one of them is considered to be in the same world as you." Then the picture of the Predator was released.
The intersection of Predator and Alien was originally in the hearts of moviegoers. In the Predator's second film, there was an alien skull in the window of the Predator's trophy, and then someone made a movie for the two races to fight inside the pyramid. So some people wonder if these creatures are from the same universe.
"I don't recognize them."
"Alright, now let's talk about what we want to know."
Under the many guns, the engineer also honestly explained everything, because the humans in this world have the ability to threaten the engineer, so they are determined to eradicate this human race that can threaten their own race.
Hearing these Prometheus people, the feelings were mixed, because the creator of them felt threatened, so the creator mainly destroyed them, but because of the accident, the plan had to be delayed, and they came over and almost opened Pandora's box.
This accident was caused by a black water leak during the experiment, and the average leak engineer is not afraid to clean it up. But this leaked black water contaminated the original experimental creature, and as a result, the evolution speed of the creature exceeded imagination, and when it was ready to deal with it, it was killed back, because it was not dealt with in time, and it was chased everywhere because of the untimely treatment, and in the end, it was a fluke to escape by hiding in the cockpit, and the rest of them died in the process of dormancy because of their injuries.
In the absence of weapons, the Engineers, a race that is not good at fighting, were caught off guard in the face of the perfect hunting machine, and the rest of the ships were estimated to be the only ones left in total.
"That's all I know, you have to be careful that it's dangerous."
"It's okay, we're fully prepared, unless these monsters are overwhelming, they're all going to die at the hands of our machine gunners." If it weren't for the fear that the acidic blood would burn through the ship we wanted, we would have gone in with a gun in a hurry.
