If You Huan guessed correctly, he was now in the outer area of the Weyland Corporation's headquarters building.
The "Zone C" sign hanging in the corridor proves this.
But there must be someone here who has the means to enter the inner layer.
Standing in front of the laboratory door, a man dressed as a researcher walked over hurriedly, took out a door card, swiped it next to the door, and underwent a facial scan.
The door opens.
The researcher was about to walk in when he suddenly became distracted and didn't realize that there was another person in protective clothing walking into the laboratory with him.
The security of the building is very tight, but various scanning methods are almost ineffective against You Huan.
Even if he was discovered here, given the current situation, by the time the building reacted to him, he would have already reached the next area.
After entering the laboratory, he immediately integrated into the group of researchers.
He walked to the center of the lab and looked at the information on a computer amid the busy conversation of everyone.
Maybe because this is Area C, the information does not involve too many confidential information.
But words like "black water" have already appeared here.
It can be seen that the research here should be related to Blackwater medical research.
Even if it is discovered by outsiders, there are plenty of excuses to cover it up.
But several code names that appeared in a latest document caught his attention.
"Queen", "Empress", "Queen-Mother"?
If you want to translate it, Queen is the most well-known alien queen, Empress can be translated as empress or emperor, Queen-Mother is the mother of the queen, and can also be localized and translated into empress dowager.
This is supposed to be a series of alien species based on the Alien Queen, with each one being more powerful than the previous.
The Alien Queen is an alien that appears in the Alien original story.
Although the latter two appeared in official works, they did not appear in the main film or prequel.
Could it be that Weyland has already manufactured all of this series of aliens?
They might be the biggest enemy of this operation.
After secretly noting down this information, You Huan suddenly felt his mimicked "shoulder" being patted heavily.
Turning around, he saw an older man looking at him through the mask of his protective suit.
There was a puzzled look on the man's face - although it couldn't be seen clearly because of the protective suit.
"Are you a researcher in our laboratory? Why do you look a little strange to me?"
"..." You Huan didn't have the ability to mimic human vocal organs at all, so he didn't say a word.
A small cluster of black water had broken through the protective suit from behind him and spread out, gradually covering itself with an exoskeleton in the air and becoming hard.
Then it turned into a tail hook and pierced into the body of the man in front of him!
"Ugh!" The man's eyes widened and he froze in place.
The alien toxin spread rapidly in his body.
The toxin, which mainly has a paralyzing effect against powerful aliens, has a direct fatal effect on a human like this who has not undergone any enhancement.
Two seconds later, the man was dead.
You Huan stretched out his arm to support him and took out a door card from him.
Judging from the name tag, this person is the supervisor of this area and his door card should have sufficient authority.
He conveniently placed the man's body on the computer chair next to him so that he could sleep more peacefully.
Then he took out the gasoline he had prepared earlier from the space card and took out a lighter from the man's pocket.
A few seconds later, a terrifying flame suddenly rose from the center of the laboratory and pounced on the people around it with its fangs and claws.
The fire alarm sounded, and the people here fell into chaos in confusion and panic.
A fire of this magnitude should have been put out quickly by the fire-fighting system, but for some reason today, the fire-fighting system seemed to be stuck and no water was sprayed for half a day.
The fire spread rapidly, and the blazing flames engulfed everything around it.
The researchers immediately ran out, and soon the corridor was filled with people.
In this chaotic situation, You Huan walked along the long corridor and found a door that required identity verification.
The sign on the gate reads: [Area C → Area B]
He swiped the door card he got from his supervisor on the door, and when he turned on the facial verification, he fully activated the mimicry effect.
The facial features instantly became clear, the eyes came to life, and the undulating natural patterns in the irises could be clearly seen.
It was the supervisor's face.
The facial information matches the door card, the verification is passed, and the door opens.
He slipped into area B.
Now that he has come this far, he doesn't plan to camouflage anymore.
Just as he was about to return to his monster form and prepare to kill his way through, a few familiar faces walked out around the next corner.
It was Shaw, Ripley and the others.
In addition to these two, there is also Ripley's team, and...Ash.
No one knows whose body Ash has connected to, but he is currently moving with a complete body.
He walked among the crowd, seemingly leading the way for them, with a very honest look.
But You Huan could sense that inside his body—or rather, inside his head—there was something with the aura of Blue-veined Deacon.
Could it be that after seeing the new species of blackwater life - referring to Deacon and You Huan - he changed his target and planned to obtain their blackwater information and give it to the company?
Is this his new conspiracy?
Deacon's is easy to say, but if You Huan's blackwater is added, it is hard to say how strong the company's aliens will be.
You Huan did not take any immediate action, but followed the group silently.
They entered a room marked "Control Room".
Ash didn't know what he did, but all the doors along the way were opened for him.
After entering the room, he said, "This is the main control room of Area B. You can check the surveillance of Area B and adjust the security system here."
This is certainly very useful, but Xiao immediately raised a question: "Wait, the confidentiality level here should be very high, right? Why can you open the door here?"
Ash opened his mouth: "Because..."
"——Because I gave him the authority."
A calm, powerful and confident male voice sounded from behind the crowd.
Everyone turned around suddenly and saw a man in a suit and tie calmly walking into the control room surrounded by several bodyguards.
But from the look in his eyes when he glanced at the large monitoring screen in the control room, the B5-B7 area surveillance had completely turned into a snow screen.
He wasn't as calm as he appeared.
Ash saw the man walking in and immediately bowed slightly, "Sir."
Xiao and others immediately realized that this was a conspiracy.
It was unknown when Ash had contacted the company's top management, with the intention of catching Xiao and the others in one fell swoop.
As to why they were not arrested as soon as they entered the building, it may be related to the chaos in the building.
They also vaguely realized that in addition to them, there was at least another group of people wreaking havoc in the building.
The man who was a senior executive in the company noticed the target that Shaw, Ripley and the others were wary of and hated, and smiled slightly.
Then he looked at the blue-striped Dickon who was standing beside Xiao and neighing at him, with a look of surprise in his eyes:
"It is indeed a unique black water life form, not the same as the aliens! Not bad——"
"Hiss!" Blue-striped Dicken couldn't bear it any longer. He suddenly jumped up and attacked the man's head with his molars.
As a black water creature that can fight against the god Deacon, its combat effectiveness is quite good.
It's just that it has always been restrained by its "mother" Xiao and generally does not show any aggressiveness.
Even an ordinary alien would be killed instantly in front of it.
Seeing that his head was about to be shot through by the inner molar, the man just stood there motionless with a confident smile.
"Shua——"
Just when Blue-striped Deacon was about to kill the man, he suddenly retracted his inner molars, took a step back, and returned to Xiao's side.
There were restless sounds coming from his mouth.
It could feel that just now a black water aura that was extremely threatening to it suddenly appeared!
Although this aura did not belong to this male human, it still made it fearful and even gave it a vague feeling of being suppressed.
The man smiled when he saw this: "The Alien Queen's black water is indeed useful. Even non-aliens are afraid of it..."
However, the next moment, he found that the way Shaw, Ripley and others looked at him had changed.
It gets weird.
