Chapter 516 Prometheus
In the end, no one wanted to go there with Ethan. The space travel during this period made everyone feel a little disgusting and boring. I heard that this time I would go to a spaceship again and wander around on a desolate planet. Most people chose to refuse. .
Besides Ada and Logan, only Maria Hill is joining the trip.
Maria Hill, as the ship commander of Ethan's team, attaches great importance to the spaceship she will be in charge of in the future, and wants to know about this new ship as soon as possible.
In addition to the addition of Maria Hill, after Annette knew the world Ethan was going to, she hoped that he would bring back some samples, because the alien creature interested her very much.
"I can't guarantee this. You should know how dangerous that thing is."
Aliens do have many attractive features, the ability to optimize and improve themselves according to the genes of the host being parasitized, and to constantly improve themselves is very attractive.
If it was Ethan in the past, he would definitely not be able to refuse such a temptation, even if he took a huge risk, he would have to collect some abnormal samples.
But for him now, this optimization ability has become less attractive.
The Marvel universe itself has gene adjustment technology, which is not necessarily inferior to the ability of the alien itself, and it is a mature technology with absolutely no side effects.
Not to mention the various strengthening agents that Ethan has mastered, so the alien gene is dispensable for Ethan now.
Even the strong body is no longer attractive to Ethan, and he has no chance to use the Titan blood he got from the cabin in the woods last time.
After defeating Yi Ge, his magic level has been improved, so that he himself is receiving this kind of enhancement from the inside out. It is not suitable to use any strengthening medicine for the time being to avoid any unknown conflicts. He has to wait for the magic to affect himself. The new titan potion can only be used after ascension is over.
"In short, our main goal this time is the Prometheus spacecraft, and nothing else matters."
As for the crew on the Prometheus, they were dying like crazy from the beginning to the end. Except for the captain and two lieutenants who were considered heroic sacrifices, everyone else died because of their own stupidity. The average IQ of people on earth... Thinking that these guys are all top figures in related industries, Ethan suddenly felt that the earth in this universe has no future at all.
"right here?"
Ethan looked at the surrounding environment and compared it with the memory in his mind. He could be sure that he and the others had indeed arrived on the Prometheus.
Fortunately, Ethan and the others did not teleport to the beginning of the entire film.
If it was teleported to that time period, Ethan would face an embarrassing situation: Elizabeth Shaw had just discovered various clues about the 'engineer', and after that she took these materials to get the full support from the Welland Group, Almost all of the money was spent building this advanced spaceship, the Prometheus.
It was built from scratch, and no matter how fast it was, it would take at least a year.
Ethan is definitely not willing to waste a year in this world. If that happens, he can only choose to abandon this place and choose a spaceship from another world.
Fortunately, it was not transmitted to the beginning of the film, but to the time when the plot began, that is, before the Prometheus was about to arrive at its destination.
At this time, the Prometheus has been sailing for more than two years, and the passengers on board are all dormant, and the only active thing on board is the bionic robot David.
It can be known from the plot that the passengers on the Prometheus did not all know each other at the beginning. Perhaps only the captain Ganek and Meredith Vickers as the supervisor knew how many passengers were on the ship. , and specific information about those individuals.
In addition, the bionic robot David should also know these materials, or it can be said that he is the one who knows the most.
Ethan originally thought of a way to control David and Meredith Vickers. As long as he controls these two existences, he can obtain a relatively formal identity, and then play soy sauce in this scientific research team, and so on. After helping people die like crazy, take this spaceship and leave.
However, after carefully recalling all the details and considering the actual situation, he found that this method would not work. Compared with it, it would be better to show his muscles directly and snatch it by force.
"Isn't it a little bad to do that?"
The people present were not good people, but they were not unprincipled robbers either. They really couldn't do this kind of thing of snatching the spaceship.
Considering that once they take the spaceship away, this group of people can only wait to die on this strange planet very far away from the earth, which is no different from killing everyone directly and then taking the spaceship away.
Killing and seizing treasure?
When Ethan thought about it, he found that he was a little bit hesitant to do it.
"It's so hard to be a good person."
He just thought that this group of people would go crazy and die anyway, and he only needs to wait before he can take over a spaceship that has lost its crew.
Now that this group of people is not dead, and he thinks that he wants to keep the ship, it seems that the captain Ganek, his two co-pilots, and Meredith Vickers as the supervisor will not Death - Ethan certainly doesn't allow and doesn't need them to drive the Prometheus to hit the engineer's spaceship.
"Then let's solve the problem in the way I'm most used to in the past."
"How to do it?"
"Make a deal with them."
The content of the deal is the lives of these people: they hand over the spaceship, and Ethan guarantees that they can keep their lives, and Ethan will find a way to send them back to Earth.
The target is those few people who have a chance to survive and did not die like crazy.
As for the rest of them, Ethan really wanted to see how weird these guys could be up close.
"Who are you?"
Ethan and the others are in the control room of the Prometheus, which is the area at the front of the Prometheus.
Because the spacecraft is in automatic navigation state, there are only a few instruments in the entire cockpit emitting a faint light, and most of the equipment is in a dormant state.
Ethan felt that even David would not run here without incident, so he stood here with Logan and the others to discuss what to do next?
Unexpectedly, David appeared suddenly and found Ethan and these strangers—the information of all the passengers on the ship was in his record, and there was no information about Ethan and others, which means that these people are completely bottom invaders.
The Prometheus is a purely scientific research ship. The ship is not equipped with any weapons, and the ship also lacks sufficient defense systems and weapons.
It can even be said that when the spaceship was manufactured, combat needs were not considered. Although some weapons were carried on board, David would not carry those weapons with him.
Even if he realized that these were intruders, David had no way to eliminate the enemies.
In fact, he wanted to get out immediately, even if the control room was occupied by someone, as long as he took out the weapon, he believed that he could regain the cab by virtue of the special nature of the bionic robot.
The problem is that he can't move himself - Ethan stretched out his hand to release the magic power the first time David appeared, and the blue magic power illuminated the dark space, turning into blue energy chains David was firmly 'wrapped' in place, unable to move at all.
"Isn't this Eric?"
The same guy who plays the bionic David happens to be the same guy who plays a younger version of Magneto, so both Logan and Ada are marveling at David's appearance, but that's about it.
After traveling so many worlds with Ethan, they more or less thought of something. They knew very well that the person in front of them was not Eric. It was just the first time they encountered an existence with the same appearance, so they inevitably paid more attention.
"My name is David, not Eric."
Even if he was controlled, David didn't show any panic expression on his face. No matter how human he looked, he was still just a robot.
It's just that his intelligent core has a relatively high degree of evolution. At a certain level, he can already be regarded as a real intelligent life.
What's even more frightening is that I don't know what Wei Lan's intentions are. There are no restrictions in David's core program, which makes David do everything he wants after he gradually "evolve" or "awakened". What I wanted to do, and triggered the next series of stories.
Thinking of this, Ethan suddenly had the idea of destroying this product directly.
However, he still restrained his impulse. Apart from the fact that he still needed David now, there was another point that he didn't want to 'punish' him for something the other party hadn't done. What's more, with his interference, this David It is no longer possible to do those things like the original plot.
If he still goes that way, Ethan doesn't mind taking care of him.
After David found that he had regained his freedom, he did not act recklessly. He knew that he was still under the control of the other party. At this time, he wanted to know who the other party was. He came to Prometheus What's the purpose of the ship?
"It seems that we can only use plan B!"
"What? We have a plan B?"
Logan, Ada, and Hill all looked like 'Are you kidding me? ’ looking at Ethan, when we discussed it just now, I didn’t hear that there was any ‘Pulan coin! '
Ethan ignored the eyes of his companions, floated up gently, and then flew forward to David at a height of about 20 centimeters from the ground.
"David, take me to see the person in charge of your ship, I have something to talk to him about."
Ethan deliberately used "he" to emphasize, but David in front of him seemed to have not understood Ethan's meaning, or deliberately pretended not to understand, but instead reminded Ethan.
"The head of the Prometheus is Miss Meredith Vickers."
Ethan glanced at David and didn't bother with this question.
"Take me to see her, it's the same as talking to her anyway."
