Chapter 264: Mission Briefing, Before Landing

"Good morning. I say this to those whom I personally hire, and it is a pleasure to see you again...... For the rest, listen up, my name is Meredith Vickers, and it's my job to oversee you doing your job. The tall blonde slowly approached the crowd as she spoke, and after standing in a suitable position, she gestured to David the robot sitting in the front row: "Alright, then, let's start the mission briefing." ”

David, who always had a gentle smile on his face, clicked a few times on the tablet in his hand, the lights in the basketball court quickly dimmed, the instruments on the surrounding walls began to glow, and a holographic display was projected into the center of the basketball court, accompanied by a video play, a nice male voice came from the stereo.

"Wellland, build a better world." With the slogan of the company shouted, a room was created out of thin air in the center of the field, the wide glass door slowly opened, and an old man walked in from the "door", behind him, there was a human Martian colony scene in full swing......

Now, the image of the chairman of the Welland company, Peter Wellan, appeared in front of everyone, "walking" towards the crowd on crutches.

――

"Hello everyone...... My name is Pete Wellland, and I'm your employer. The old man, dressed in a neat and neat gray outfit, said: "This video was recorded on June 22, 2091, if you are watching, it means that you have arrived at your destination, and I am already dead, may I rest in peace." ”

Vickers, the speaker's daughter, and the reincarnators. They all sneered: Pete Welland was still hibernating in a secret room on the ship, waiting for the employees to find a creator or a human to achieve immortality.

The image of the aging man will not be disturbed by the outside world, and he continues to tremble but speak coherently: "There is a man among you named David, he is like my son, but unfortunately he is not human, he does not age. will not die, even if he has such a talent, he will not know how to appreciate himself...... Because there is one thing he lacks, and that is the soul. ”

The lines that I heard several times in the movie made Zhang Haolin so bored that he wanted to roll his eyes, but fortunately, it was a bit interesting to watch Miss Vickers show an annoyed expression in person. Unexpectedly, in the body of a business genius like Wei Lan, there would be patriarchal prejudice, maybe it was because he didn't have a qualified male heir. Do you want to live forever?

……

"I've spent my life searching for answers – where do we come from, what is our mission, what happens when we die?" Wellan said earnestly, looking sincere, "There are two people in the end who make me believe that the answer is within reach, Holloway and Dr. Sean, please get up." ”

A man and a woman sitting in two rows in front of the reincarnators stood up. Walked towards the stereoscopic projection of Pitt Wellland.

"You need to know by now that the two of them are in charge of this operation. Prometheus, a Titan. Man was created in imitation of God's appearance, for which he was expelled from Olympus. My friends, the time has finally come for God's return. The old man's projection was just right, and when the two archaeologists stood beside him, he waved to the crowd and turned away: "Alright, now. It's your time. ”

The projection flickered and disappeared, the video was played, and the lighting system on the basketball court came back on.

"Okay, wow-" Dr. Holloway, the male protagonist Charlie. Shrugging at the disappearing employer projection, he sighed, "It feels weird...... I used to ...... Never worked for a dead man. He coughed a few times and steered the conversation to the norm: "Alright, now, I'm going to show you why we're here." ”

He pressed the Rubik's Cube in his hand a few times and put it on the ground, the small square toy turned out to be a projector, and several pictures were projected in the air: "These are pictures collected by archaeology from all over the world, these are Egyptians, Mayans, Sumeronians, Babylonians...... The last one was a Mesopotamian. He pointed to the 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 were separated by centuries from each other, and there was no connection with each other, but they ......."

He waved his hand and merged several pictures together, playing them one by one like PPT, and finally merged into one: "These similar pictures show a giant creature that humans worship, pointing to these stars, and each image shows the same content, and the only galaxy that matches this star map is so far away from the earth that it is impossible for these ancient earth civilizations to know about its existence." But today we have confirmed that in that galaxy, there is a star, much like our sun, and a long-wave scan has revealed that there is a planet there, and one of the moons of this planet can sustain life. So, here we are this morning. ”

The speaker looked around triumphantly, clearly pleased with the results of his research.

"How to find this galaxy through a map, I still don't understand after reading it several times." Wen Yu asked in the spiritual link, "Explain, the time has come to test your knowledge." ”

It is rare to meet Wen Yu who is interested in the knowledge of science, Zhang Haolin is naturally obliged, taking advantage of the discussions of the surrounding plot characters about what the protagonist says, he explained to everyone in the spiritual link: "Recording the location of a planet is not the same as marking a location on a map, because the universe is three-dimensional, and the different civilizations in it do not use a map, unless you draw a large enough star map and mark this special planet in it, but the ancient earthlings obviously couldn't do this...... However, there is a way to summarize the location of the planet with a very small amount of information. ”

Biologists and archaeologists debated the true way life originated, and Zhang Haolin paused and went on to explain to his teammates: "Most stars, when seen from a distance, are just a point of light, and although they are actually unique to each other, just as each leaf on a tree is unique, it is difficult to find this leaf in a lush tree through a picture of a leaf - when the base is very large." A difference that isn't obvious is the same as an exact one. ”

"Well, so what."

"Ancients couldn't mark this location by leaving precise data on the stars, but the relative positions of the stars were not so particular. It's like taking a picture of a branch of a tree and finding the shape of the branches in that photo is much easier than finding a single leaf. Equally. The relative arrangement of several stars is also almost unique in the universe and much easier to find. ”

"Oh...... I understand that the Titans, who created and guided mankind, left the relative positions of the six stars to the human ancestors, and later people could find this place by looking for the stars in the same arrangement according to the star map. ”

"Yes, just like fingerprints, they can be the same in theory, but in practice they are still unique. Although the stars are moving, this information is still valid for tens of millions of years. The universe is so large that it is not impossible for the same arrangement to appear, but the possibility of two sets of the same arrangement on one spiral arm in the Milky Way is very small, so humans have come to find it. ”

Everyone else nodded in realization, only Arnie blinked wide-eyed, "I don't know—how long do we have to go, it's so boring." ”

――

Despite all the talk, an employee is an employee. Whether you are interested in the so-called Creator or not, you have to work when you get paid. Mission briefing ends. Everyone disbanded and went back to their rooms, and the reincarnators reunited to discuss their next move.

"First of all, we must make a judgment on one thing, what is the relationship between the Titan reincarnation and the alien reincarnation; Whether they are already waiting for us on the surface of that moon now; If yes, what should we do? ”

"We need to figure out the relationship between the Titans and the Aliens - we already have several speculations from the Lord God, and the most reliable ones are nothing more than two: the Aliens are the target products of the Titan scientists' experiments. Xenomorphs are an accidental product of the extinction of human biological weapons. We know that the process of the alien is as follows: a human male contaminated with the black water in the weapon tank combines with a human female to give birth to an octopus-like monster in the woman's body, which we call the Primordial Faceworm, which implants embryos into the Titans. will give birth to a true alien in the body of the Titans...... It can be called the original alien. ”

"That's right, that's why I agree with the idea that the alien is a biochemical weapon that the Titans want to produce, and the black petroleum-like liquid on the LV_223 is definitely not the same thing as the black water that Prometheus of the Titan drank at the beginning of the film." Mao Dong said: "The Titan people themselves are the best carriers for cultivating aliens, but they obviously can't use their own people to carry out this kind of cultivation, so they will breed humans tens of thousands of years ago...... We know that the genetic similarity between humans and the Titans is close to 100%, but some subtle differences and different growth environments lead to differences in body shape and appearance, and it is obviously okay to use humans as alien carriers. ”

"Your guess is very reasonable, but according to the clues, the Titans were suddenly ready to destroy the ...... before they used humans to breed aliens."

"I didn't say that in the movie, remember that many ancient civilizations had a tradition of sacrificing living people, maybe the people who sacrificed were taken by the Titans to cultivate aliens...... And there is also an alien in the alien world, called Iron Blood...... It is not certain that Prometheus and several other alien movies have the same worldview, but based on the similarity of the alien spaceships in "Prometheus" and "Alien 1", we can assume that Iron Will also exists in this universe. ”

"Predator?" In addition to watching this movie at the main god, the reincarnators also downloaded the entire series of aliens in the computer, and were woken up by what Mao Dong said, Zhang Haolin took out the computer and watched other movies in the room roughly, and sure enough, he found a lot of things.

The ships in Alien 1 are a bit different from the ships in Prometheus, but from the general idea of their structure and the cockpit of the internal cannon, it can be judged that they are all Titans' ships...... Then there are many things that can be deduced.

"I see...... It may be that the Titans and the Iron Bloods are at war, with the former developing Xenomorphs to deal with the latter and establishing breeding bases across the galaxy...... However, the Predators discovered this plan and secretly arrived on Earth to conduct research on humans and aliens, resulting in a complete ineffectiveness of the plan, so the Titans abandoned the biological weapons program and prepared to cleanse the earth. ”

"The ship full of Xenomorph eggs in Alien 1 is supposed to be the warship that was originally used to attack Predator or Earth, and it has many more external devices than the ring ship in this movie, apparently a weapon system or ammunition bay, but it crashed accidentally...... Later, the Titans learned their lesson and knew that it was not safe to directly use alien or alien eggs as weapons, so they used a more primitive black liquid that would not jump out and bite people as an alternative weapon to destroy humanity, but an accident still happened. ”

"What the hell is going on, only those who make movies know, don't guess, there are no iron-blooded reincarnators in this world." Wen Yu sat on the bed with his chin propped up, staring at the two discussants boredly: "Not to mention, movies and the real world are not necessarily the same. ”

"Anyway, I don't think the aliens and the Titans are on the same side, and the best outcome is neutrality...... And, to be honest, I feel that Xenomorphs are the most adaptable creatures...... Even if they were created by the Titans, it is impossible to be grateful to them for this, in their eyes, all living things are the source of excellent genes and the nourishment of their offspring. Weng Wei said: "Of course, I also look at them with prejudice, my impression of the alien is still stuck in the monsters in the alien series, maybe the alien reincarnation also has wisdom, civilization and reason, and can sit down and negotiate with us." ”

"One is bigger than the other...... We humans are also wise and civilized, but for pigs, no matter how knowledgeable, beautiful, gentle and kind people are, as long as they eat pork, they are pig eaters...... There's no way the alien can sit down with us and talk. Wen Yu said: "Perhaps, the main task of the alien reincarnation is to kill all the humans and titans on this planet." ”

Mao Dong had a smile on his face: "Well said, Miss Pig Eater, then, guess what, what is the main quest of the Titans?" ”
