Chapter 98 The Engineer Who Can Speak Xia

"After the mapping and measurement of the map model was completed, twenty-six special points were found, and they were comparing and excluding..." After waiting for half an hour and everyone felt a little nervous, Lily's voice came from the communication channel.

"What? Twenty-six?" Yao Jie was shocked when he heard this result.

"Yes, in fact, the area detected by the detector is only a small part of this ruin. According to my analysis, the part detected now should only account for about 5% of the entire ruin, and there is still a huge space underground." Lily replied.

Hearing Lily's answer, Yao Jie immediately remembered what David said to Elizabeth Xiao at the end of the plot. There were other engineer spacecraft here, and there were many.

There are many, but it is naturally impossible to know how many, but obviously not too few.

According to Yao Jie's estimate, there were at least seven or eight ships, at most dozens, or even dozens of ships.

If these spacecraft are all anchored in the underground space of this ruins like the one that appears in the movie, then the surface departments detected now only account for about 5% of the entire ruins, which seems to make sense.

"So the twenty-six special points you are talking about referring to the gate that the detector cannot pass?" Yao Jie asked.

"Yes!" Lily replied without hesitation.

Then the question is, the twenty-six gates, which leads to the infection chamber discovered by everyone in the movie, and which leads to the spaceship David found in the movie with the living engineer?

Yao Jie's face looked a little ugly. He didn't want to play the game of opening a blind box in this ruin filled with massive alien gene fluid.

Yao Jie is not afraid now because before opening any door, the space behind the doors are all closed.

But if you are unlucky and open which door to change its internal atmosphere, then there is a possibility that the hall where the protagonists are the first to enter. The black water begins to leak, and the worms on the ground are quickly infected, becoming a ferocious butterfly snake alien.

So David can find a spaceship with living engineers at random. Is it luck or?

"The investigation is completed!" Just as Yao Jie was full of doubts, Lily suddenly said.

“I have marked twenty-six points in twenty-six letters, comparing the scenes that appear in Prometheus’s film.

Point B is the infection hall discovered by Elizabeth Shaw and others, David's gene bottle, infected worms, Milban and Fifeld's infected area.

Point E, 3 kilometers west of point B, matches the position of the spacecraft discovered by David in the movie, with a matching degree of more than 90%.

Point C between points B and points E is the pile of engineers found by Mirban and the other two in the movie. There is a closed door behind them, with a high risk rating and is not recommended to open it.

The adjacent point D does not seem to be a gate, but an excavation channel leading to the depths of the underground. However, the channel seems to be blocked at a fifty meters and the detector cannot enter.

Among the remaining marking points, the similarity between points H, K, L, N, P, S, W, Z and E is extremely high, and the possibility of being a spacecraft berthing point exceeding 90%. The data of the other marking points is insufficient and it is impossible to make a judgment."

"Is it E?" Yao Jie looked at the coordinate data transmitted by Lily on the right arm wrist guard terminal, muttered softly, then chose the direction, and ordered the person behind him: "Let's go here."

After saying that, he walked forward without waiting for everyone's reaction.

"Let's keep up!" Verland said hurriedly to the medical staff and guards beside him, and several people followed immediately.

Only Elizabeth Shaw and her boyfriend Charlie Holloway were hung at the end.

"Charlie, do you believe what that person said?" Elizabeth Shaw said in a low mood.

"What?" Holloway was a little puzzled. Yao Jie had said so many things, how did he know which sentence Xiao was saying?

"We are just guinea pigs raised by engineers!" Xiao replied.

Although Yao Jie turned into a blee yesterday, their consciousness did not become a sheep, so they naturally knew exactly what happened later and what Yao Jie said.

When Holloway heard Xiao’s question, he was speechless and didn’t know how to answer.

He knew very well that due to Yao Jie's various magical performances and powerful strength, everyone in the Prometheus, including them, had already believed Yao Jie's words by eight points.

As for the remaining two points, it is more because of Yao Jie's rebellious mentality caused by force coercion against them.

Because with Yao Jie's magical ability, there is no reason to deceive them. As long as the other party wants, they can easily kill all of them, and there is no need to make up lies.

But Holloway is also very clear that the "truth" learned from Yao Jie may not be anything to him, but for Xiao, who has always had a strong belief, it is obviously an extremely heavy blow.

"Maybe things are not that bad. Are we going to meet them now? If that person can really take us to the engineer, then everything will be answered soon!" Holloway could only comfort his girlfriend in this way.

"I hope so..." Xiao sighed.

Because of a clear goal, under the guidance of Yao Jie, the group was moving very fast and soon arrived at Point C, which was the mountain of corpses piled up by engineers.

"Look, this is your creator, you died miserably." Yao Jie curled his lips at the mountain of corpses.

Not to mention, the engineer's body shape and the way of death that either exploded or exploded his chest or shot his head was shocked at first sight.

Seeing this mountain of engineers whom he considered the Creator, Xiao covered his helmet in disbelief, and the rest were also shocked. This scene was so terrifying.

"What the hell killed them?" Verland asked in a deep voice.

"It's the kind of biological and chemical weapon I mentioned. That kind of thing can create a terrible creature by infecting creatures. But what I can't tell for the time being is that it was this engineer civilization who created that thing by creating this kind of biological and chemical weapon, or after discovering that thing, that biological and chemical weapon." Yao Jie said after thinking about it.

There are many different opinions in the real world about whether black water gene liquid first or alien shape first.

However, Yao Jie felt that the latter was more likely, because in the movie, when David and the protagonist and his group entered the lobby of Point B, the male protagonist Holloway's flashlight shone on the mural with an alien shape.

There is also the green oval sphere enshrined by Holloway with a flashlight on the stone platform under the mural, which is very similar to the green special eggs in the alien series stills, but for some reason it crystallized, and there is a faint black shadow inside.

Combined with the rumors revealed by the drama members on the Internet about the engineer civilization losing its ability to reproduce, as well as the full image of reproductive worship in the alien series, it is hard not to remind people of the purpose of engineer civilization... restoring reproductive ability.

So according to Yao Jie's own speculation.

The engineer civilization may have begun to worship this "perfect" creature after discovering the alien, and began to study its genes, create black water gene fluid, and then conduct experiments on planets that may produce life in the universe. By adding their own and alien genes to the possible births of these planets, we can find ways to restore the reproduction ability of their own clan.

Obviously, from a biological point of view, this is not a creation at all. At most it is a genetically modified experiment...by adding more "excellent" genes to the original species to guide the evolution of species.

If this is also considered the creator, then humans can also be considered the creator. There are not too many genetically modified species.

However, it can also be seen from the current situation of engineer civilization that their experiments were not very successful.

Perhaps because the erosion of the alien gene is too strong, except for humans, there are no other species that have been successfully guided to evolve.

In addition, the engineers obviously did not seem to be satisfied with the "villain" race of humans. Perhaps it was because of the rapid development of humans and the aggressiveness they showed that they felt fear, so they were prepared to completely destroy it more than two thousand years ago, around the first century AD.

That period happened to be a small peak in human history, both the ancient Roman Empire and the Han Empire.

The brilliant civilizations displayed by these two empires at that time were indeed quite amazing. Even more than two thousand years later, the characteristics of civilization developed during the two empires did not break down.

On the contrary, many dynasties during this period were completely submerged into the long river of history.

"What are you looking at?" Just as everyone was shocked by the corpses of these engineers, Holloway noticed Yao Jie was constantly watching something in the darkness on the other side of the passage.

"There is an underground passage over there, and the detector observed that there was a confined space, not like mechanical excavation, but like some kind of creature... So I was wondering if the creature that killed these engineers was still alive." Yao Jie said with a cold face.

"Hahaha... you must be joking, right?" Holloway felt a chill in an instant and said with a embarrassed smile.

"He is talking nonsense. These engineers have died for at least two thousand years. It is impossible for them to live that long if they kill them!" Xiao, who was standing beside him, said with some dissatisfaction as he looked at the carbon measurement reader in his hand.

"Is that true? What if I tell you that the lifespan of these engineers may exceed hundreds of thousands of years?" Yao Jie sneered.

Xiao was speechless in a flash. If the engineer's lifespan was really that long, would it be strange if the creatures that killed them lived for thousands of years?

Of course, the lifespan of an engineer for hundreds of thousands of years is just Yao Jie's fault, which is just a speculation on the world's Internet.

The source is the content of a draft script released by the movie No. 2 screenwriter, saying that the lifespan of an engineer reaches 300,000 years, and the loss of reproduction ability is also the content of this draft.

But for some reason, the contents in this draft, which were spread around the Internet, became what some people think of as "official establishment".

In fact, these contents were deleted by Director Lei in the later official scripts and actual shooting. They can only be used as a reference and speculation, and cannot be taken completely seriously.

"Really? Engineers really have hundreds of thousands of years of life?" If others were just shocked by the number of words Yao Jie said casually, then Verlander would be so high when he heard this number.

I'm good, 300,000 years, let alone 300,000 years, even if I give me 300,000 years, I'm satisfied. Verland couldn't help but start to be in a bad mood.

To prolong your life, it has become the obsession of this dying old guy.

"Haha, you will know when you meet the engineer." Yao Jie was too lazy to pay too much for a dying person, "Have you seen enough? Let's leave after you see enough, there are some living people to show you."

"Why do you know so much, even you know there are still living engineers in this ruins?" Xiao couldn't help but chase after him and asked.

"I guessed." Yao Jie didn't want to pay attention to him at all.

Soon, everyone finally arrived at the destination, at the gate where Point E is located.

"Lily, translate it!" The light shone on the rune switch on the right side of the door, and Yao Jie asked Lily in the communication channel.

Because of David's research data, Lily quickly completed the analysis and told Yao Jie how to open the door.

As Lily said, he pulled the rune switch a few times, and the spacecraft door opened with a bang.

The first thing that caught my eye was the dense jars.

"Are these..." Xiao, the curious baby, asked again.

"These are those biological weapons. If I were you, I would never touch them." Yao Jie glanced at them and continued to walk forward.

I soon arrived at the control hall of the spacecraft.

Under Lily's guidance, Yao Jie quickly triggered the holographic images left by the engineers in the spacecraft control hall, just like David in the movie.

Through the holographic image, everyone also saw the target set by the spacecraft... the blue planet they were all very familiar with.

What Yao Jie said is true.

If those bottles were filled with biological weapons that Yao Jie mentioned, everyone felt a little chilled in an instant when they thought about the possible consequences of these things being spread on the earth.

At this time, Yao Jie had already opened the dormant cabin where the engineer was under the guidance of Lily's translation.

The next second, Yao Jie did not hesitate to look at the engineer who had just opened his eyes and was a soul-catching curse.

Is it successful? Yao Jie was not completely sure, so he took a few steps back.

The former behind Weiland couldn't wait to try to come forward to communicate with the other party, but after taking two steps, he remembered that he didn't seem to understand the engineer's language, and David, the translator he had originally prepared, had been removed by Yao Jie.

"Lily, perform simultaneous translation." Seeing this, Yao Jie was not pretentious and said directly, "Now you can talk to him."

So in Lily's simultaneous translation, Verlander expressed his demands.

However, after listening to Verland's request, the engineer who had completely woken up did not answer him, but looked at Yao Jie: "Dignified sir, is your purpose the same?"

When Yao Jie heard the other party's words, he was stunned because the other party was speaking Xia Yu, but not Mandarin, but somewhat similar to Hang dialect... Yao Jie is from Zhejiang Province, so he is naturally very familiar with this tone.

But who can tell him why an alien speaks Xia language, and it is in a dialect?

"Master, what he said should be the elegant words from the Qin and Han dynasties." Just as Yao Jie was stunned, Lily reminded him in time.

Yao Jie suddenly realized that yes, the Zhejiang dialect, including Hangzhou dialect, all originated from Wu dialect, and Wu dialect is inherited from Ya dialect and is the official language of the Qin and Han dynasties.
