Chapter 268: Chapter 249 Human Colonists
The fleet of spaceships that appeared in the sky was not just one, but a whole fleet!
It looked like there were at least four of them, the one in the center was the largest, and the three surrounding ones were much smaller.
Under You Huan's gaze, the silhouette of the largest spaceship was vaguely visible in the atmosphere, maintaining a certain height without falling.
The three small spaceships around, as well as many aircraft that flew out of the ships, fell to the ground quickly like a swarm of bees.
This angular, overall long design reveals a strong human design style.
How many humans have come to this planet?
... In the end, which planet is this?
Whether it is the most classic Lv.426 planet in "Alien 1" or Lv.223 planet in "Prometheus", they are all very desolate planets.
However, the Paradise Planet that appeared in the second prequel film "Alien: Covenant" is also where civilians among the Engineers live. It is suspected to be the Engineers' home planet and has a vibrant surface environment that is extremely similar to that of the Earth.
Could he be on the Heavenly Planet?
Then why are there so many human fleets in the sky?
In this regard, You Huan could only think of the most reasonable explanation:
these are large-scale human colonists...
No matter what the truth was, he planned to go directly to the place where this group of humans landed to find out.
But before that…
With a flick of its slender tail, the bodies of the engineers on the ground were turned over.
This alien is similar to a giant among humans, with pale skin, no hair, and deep-set eyes. Apart from this, it is almost exactly the same as humans.
These engineers had a lot of black stains on their eyes, ears, mouths and noses, and their faces, necks, arms and exposed parts of their bodies were also covered with raised black blood vessels.
Black Water...
Why didn't the black water life parasitize these dead engineers?
Perhaps it was because they had already used black water, an organic substance with infinite potential, on their bodies before they died!
Perhaps it was used for strengthening, or perhaps it was infected.
In short, there is a considerable amount of black water residue in the bodies of these engineers.
Moreover, the black water in their bodies was different from the "original black water" or black water life that You Huan had encountered before.
If the latter is compared to a wild beast that is difficult to tame, then this black water fish is a tamed dog with very low activity and no desire to attack or parasitize.
Have these engineers already transformed black water and used it in practical technology?
It is indeed a distorted middle world, which is completely beyond the scope of the movie setting.
While he was thinking, there was a violent tremor from the distant earth, which spread all the way to his feet.
Those unknown aircraft have landed on the ground one after another.
Amid the howling wind and the shaking ground, rumbling vibrations were also heard from inside the engineer's crescent-shaped spacecraft behind You Huan.
Among the blood-related inductions, one by one the same inductions are rapidly converging towards the direction of the spacecraft's door.
You Huan, who was turning the bodies of the engineers over and over, immediately retracted his claws and quietly entered the jungle nearby.
After a while, a large number of black water creatures wearing exoskeletons or still wearing soft gelatinous skin rushed out of the spacecraft!
Obviously, the arrival of those aircraft made them smell a strange and fresh smell, which aroused their interest.
These monsters quickly dispersed into the jungle and followed different routes, approaching the direction where the aircraft was landing.
Being aggressive doesn't mean they are brainless. Obviously, they are also more cautious when facing unknown things.
At the same time, the instinct of black water will drive them to find new biological hosts to cultivate the next generation of black water life.
However, the sturdy black water creature did not appear and remained inside the spacecraft.
You Huan waited for a moment and did not go directly to look for the landed aircraft.
Instead, it circled around the engineer spaceship.
It looks exactly like the one in the movie, shaped like a curved horn with the two tips pointing towards each other.
The outside, like the inside, also has protruding bone structures similar to those of living things, which looks extremely biologically beautiful.
Engineers should have a lot of these spacecraft, so it can be considered a mass product.
But now, this spaceship abandoned in the jungle has long been dilapidated, with large areas of peeling and decay on its surface.
The interior has also been occupied by black water.
Combining the bodies of the engineers lying outside, he imagined the scenes that had happened in the past.
Engineers were conducting experiments on black water in this spacecraft, studying this organic matter that would induce strange biological reactions.
Suddenly, the black water parasitized some engineers and other animals, turning them into black water monsters.
The spacecraft crashed and the remaining engineers fled.
Some of the engineers had already fled to the door, but could not escape the killing of the black water creatures and fell at the door.
Because the biomass armor they wore still had a certain effect, and the black water in their bodies kept their bodies from rotting, so they just stayed where they were.
If this is really Paradise, perhaps there are more engineers on this planet.
After observing the spaceship, he very cautiously retreated to an area far away from the spaceship, and then took out the headless corpse of the black water creature from the space card.
Start eating.
[Evolution Points +15]
[Evolution Points +12]
[Evolution Points +10]
A total of 37 evolution points were obtained, directly raising the level to 39/40.
You Huan took out the food stock from the space card and used 5 evolution points to fill the gap.
[Level: Lv.3 → Lv.4 (4/80)]
In a short period of time, he leveled up two times, and the improvement to this body was quite obvious.
With a slight crackling sound from the exoskeleton, his body grew taller again, and when he stood on all fours, his height was almost two meters.
In addition to the improvements brought by upgrading, [Gene Complementation] will continue to take effect during feeding.
The advantageous genes contained in this extremely strong and swift black water creature were constantly absorbed by him and transformed into part of himself.
Muscle fibers gradually become denser, the internal organs are more resistant to impact, and explosive power is slowly increasing.
After eating, he originally wanted to explore the place where the aircraft landed, but as soon as he moved a little, he felt something was wrong.
"Crack, crack…"
He twisted his neck violently, and the exoskeleton on his body was suddenly dislocated due to the violent movement.
But it was not his exoskeleton that was damaged, but the outermost layer of the exoskeleton that fell off on its own.
As he shook his body violently from head to toe, with a snap, a whole set of slightly transparent exoskeleton fell off his body.
New exoskeletons have also appeared on the body.
It has absorbed the compositional advantages of the exoskeleton of the black water life it feeds on, with a tighter texture and a darker and shinier shell.
The dark and deep exoskeleton glows with a cold light, and its outline is smooth and hard. At first glance, it seems not to be a living creature, but a sculpture with an extremely alien beauty.
If Light Fury or Indominus Raptor were here, they would definitely take a lot of photos in the mirror to admire their own "heroic appearance".
Different monster brains have different tendencies that will slightly affect his personality.
But as an alien, he felt no emotion at all... probably.
The emotions of the black water creature were even more indifferent than all the monsters he had experienced before. It seemed to always remain in a cold yet aggressive state.
You Huan does not reject the personality differences between different monsters. After all, as the most authentic self, he has not changed.
On this basis, it is interesting to experience the way different monsters think.
After a little exercise, he estimated that the upgrade and gene completion had doubled his strength compared to before he encountered the two powerful black water creatures!
Then he took silent steps and quickly rushed to the place where the aircraft landed...
At the same time, at his destination.
Spacecraft of varying sizes landed on a flat area on the planet.
After a long silence, the whooshing sound of gas exchange could be heard from the aircraft.
Amidst the white mist, the door of the aircraft opened.
Figures walking upright and wearing heavy clothes and helmets walked out of the aircraft carefully and vigilantly.
You Huan's guess was correct, this was indeed a human colony.
