Chapter 19: Chu Xuan's Purpose
As a feeling of being half asleep and half awake came over, when Ye Zi opened her eyes again, she was already standing in a cabin made of all metal and full of futuristic high-tech feel. And when she glanced around, the person who was originally with her
Chu Xuan, who was holding hands, calmly withdrew his right hand... Such an incomprehensible and charming action made Ye Zi couldn't help but curse.
(Really... there is no reason to hold a girl's hand and just pull it away without saying a word.)
Ignoring Ye Zi's little thoughts, Chu Xuan walked to the operating console of the landing craft and quickly tapped the virtual keyboard on the desktop to query various data about the spacecraft. After a while, he took a photo
A button clicked and the cabin door not far away opened. Then he nodded to Ye Zi and left the cabin immediately.
Following Chu Xuan's steps out of the cabin, what came into view was the hangar of the spacecraft "Sulak": Different from the original plot, due to the complete annihilation of the Marine Corps, this huge space battleship, together with the aircraft it carried,
The backup landing craft is still parked quietly on the synchronous orbit.
According to Ye Zi's understanding of the setting, the "Sulak" is about 400 meters long and weighs about 80,000 tons. It can be called a steel fortress floating in space. Due to its huge size and the complexity of its internal structure, if it were not
The crew members who spend time with it day and night,
It's easy to get lost inside this maze-like hull. But Chu Xuan just glanced at the structure diagram of the spacecraft before, and now he was able to shuttle through the aisles familiarly. It only took less than ten minutes to complete it.
The shortest route reached the main control room of the spacecraft.
"If I guess correctly...are you planning to eliminate all the aliens on planet lv-426 to complete this possible hidden branch?" Ye Zi, who also walked into the main control room, looked at Chu Xuan's back.
After pondering for a moment, he whispered his guess:
"I remember the original plot of Alien 2. It was mentioned that the Sulak was equipped with nuclear bombs. All we had to do was drop one at the Hadley's Hope colony and the alien spacecraft in Alien 1.
If so, we should be able to annihilate all the aliens on the entire planet."
"It's generally true, but there are some minor discrepancies in the details." Chu Xuan turned to glance at Ye Zi, and nodded approvingly: "The 'Sulak' is indeed equipped with nuclear bombs, but only one, so my
The plan is...to use this nuclear bomb on an alien spacecraft, and if Hadley hopes to colonize it, just use the Surak to hit it."
(As long as we set the course of the "Sulak" and let it hit the target, we can leave on the backup landing craft... No wonder Chu Xuan specially set the landing and return locations on the landing craft. This plan is impeccable.
but…)
After a brief silence, Ye Zi calmly said: "I have no doubts about your plan... It's just that before destroying the 'Hadley Hope' colony, I hope to go back there first."
"What's your reason...?" Chu Xuan was operating the central computer of the spacecraft, but when he heard this, he frowned, stopped what he was doing, and looked at Ye Zi.
"I hope to save the 'Bishop', the artificial man who once provided us with information." Ye Zi played with the hair beside his cheek and expressed his thoughts: "I have no intention of discussing whether robots have human rights.
'That question...but given the choice, I don't want him to be buried with the aliens in the 'Hadley Hope' colony."
Chu Xuan took a deep look at Ye Zi and didn't know what he was thinking about. After a moment, he sighed and said helplessly: "This kind of thing will indeed not have a negative impact on my plan. It's just that it won't have a negative impact on my plan."
It's just necessary...Forget it, I'll let the Surak spend a few hours accelerating around the orbit of lv-426 before impact."
"And this time should be enough for you to save people."
Seeing Ye Zi nodded slightly and approved his arrangement, Chu Xuan continued to operate the central computer and at the same time made arrangements: "Previously on the computer of 'Hadley Hope', I found the action record of exploring alien spacecraft...
The coordinates of the spacecraft are 692.17,701.9. You are responsible for using the secondary computer to control the weapon system and drop the nuclear bomb at these coordinates, is that okay?"
"Understood." Ye Zi agreed and began to set various parameters for nuclear bomb launch: This 22nd century weapon system is surprisingly simple to operate. You only need to enter a series of necessary data, and the built-in AI system will automatically
Calculating the required ballistic trajectory does not require much professional knowledge at all.
After obtaining the authorization from the central computer, Ye Zi took a picture of the "launch" button with great enthusiasm and saw with satisfaction that a line of bright red countdowns appeared on the screen. Seeing that Chu Xuan's route setting was not yet completed,
She then left the main control room leisurely and walked to a porthole, ready to observe the effect of the nuclear bomb.
Calculating in his mind that there were still ten seconds left in the countdown, Ye Zi suddenly cleared his throat and began to sing some unexplained lines from the second grade.
"My name is Ye Zi."
"Far blacker than black, blacker than darkness, desire to merge with my true red. The time of awakening has arrived. The truth falls into the realm of infallibility and becomes an invisible distortion, manifesting itself."
"explosion!"
As soon as she finished speaking, an obvious bulge appeared in the thick atmosphere of LV-426. It was obvious that the nuclear bomb she dropped had successfully released its full power.
After admiring his "masterpiece" for a few more seconds, the refreshed Ye Zi walked lightly back to the main control room. After meeting up with Chu Xuan who had completed the route setting, the two boarded the backup landing craft, headed by Chu Xuan.
Xuan drove and landed on the "Hadley's Hope".
And watching Chu Xuan skillfully manually control the landing craft, Ye Zi was once again convinced of the fact that "Chu Dingdang is omnipotent": This is obviously a science fiction spaceship. Hey, why are you so skilled!? Is it possible?
Your father is also in Xiawei...did he teach you at Longyin Base?
After sending Ye Zi to the main entrance of "Hadley's Hope", the cautious Chu Xuan did not choose to stop where he was, but drove the landing craft to circle around the building to prevent aliens from sneaking up like the original plot of the movie.
Landing craft. Ye Zi, who is a talented and courageous man, single-handedly entered "Hadley's Hope".
The small number of aliens in the building did not pose much of a threat to Ye Zi, who was in full swing at the moment. Occasionally, a few unknown aliens came to sneak attack. She didn't even bother to take out weapons, and only relied on gene locks and magic power to release them.
Just fight them with your bare hands.
After finding the android "Bishop", Ye Zi didn't explain much. He just asked him to enter a dormant state, then held his upper body in one hand and a Gauss pistol in the other, and killed "Hadley Hope"
's main entrance.
After being picked up by Chu Xuan on the landing craft, she placed the bishop in the back cabin, while she returned to the front cabin, sat in the co-pilot's seat, and quietly waited for Chu Xuan to drive the spacecraft back to the satellite orbit.
During the whole process, there was a strange silence in the cabin. Ye Zi didn't know how to open the topic, and Chu Xuan...God knows what he was thinking.
Fortunately, this dead atmosphere did not last forever. When the "Sulak" completed its acceleration, under the gaze of the two people, it almost turned into a meteor, tearing apart the atmosphere of lv-426, carrying with it
With a decisive momentum, after hitting the surface at full speed, the Lord God's cold notification sound also sounded in Ye Zi's mind.
"Assist in eliminating all aliens on planet lv-426, obtain a D-level side plot, and receive 500 reward points."
At the same time, Chu Xuan also broke the silence in the cabin and said: "I got a C-level side plot with 1,000 reward points... If my prediction is good, the side plot you got should be at D-level."
Between level C.”
"Back to the main story, the reason why I want to talk to you this time is that after studying the 'dream' meme, I discovered that there is a lot of mystery in it." Although his face was expressionless, there was something deep in Chu Xuan's eyes.
A touch of dangerous fanaticism flashed through again: "According to some information from the Lord God, as well as some of my personal understanding, I think the concept of 'meme' can probably be understood as a 'bug' in the world."
"If 'dreams cannot change reality' and 'all things come and go' are normal laws of the world, they will be distorted to varying degrees after being affected by memes. This is why memes can ignore logic.
This is the reason for ignoring rationality and ignoring the laws of physics."
"But in the final analysis, no matter how chaotic and disorderly it is, as long as we can get through the 'illogical' appearance and get to its core, we can study it and discover the secrets hidden in it."
(Awesome, awesome, in less than a day, have you guessed the essence of the meme!?)
"However, with modern scientific methods, let alone digging out its core, we can't even conduct basic research. Only through the special enhancement from the Lord God can I gain the ability to analyze its essence."
"And this is one of the reasons why I'm looking for you this time. I need your support to exchange for a B-level side plot enhancement."
Hearing this, Ye Zi's expression was expressionless, but he shouted in his heart: Since Chu Xuan plans to exchange it, it means that his thirst for knowledge has defeated his world-weary thoughts. In this way, he will probably not be in the next horrific scene.
In the film, it is just like the original work where it is all about death. To achieve such a result, no matter how many side plots and reward points are required, it is completely worth it.
"The enhancement I like is called..."
