The oppression in the form of spiritual power on the gate line has disappeared.
The maintenance man who was tinkering with the gate system fixed the door in no time.
Everyone exchanged glances with Ash before the former silently stepped off the ship one by one.
Now that the door is open, there is no point in staying on the spaceship any longer.
A dark shadow flashed where they couldn't see clearly.
You Huan also came down from the spaceship, and his paws stepped on the green grass for the first time in a long time.
The characteristics inherited from a certain type of black water life on the exoskeleton made him have a very low sense of existence at this time.
Standing on the spaceship, he looked down at the man who was talking to everyone.
Ash, a character who appeared in the first Alien movie.
At first, he appears to be just a scientist on the Nostromo.
But his actual identity is a bionic man affiliated with the Weyland Corporation.
In the movie, he received instructions from the company and came specifically for Black Water.
The most classic praise for the Alien, "a perfect organism", came from his mouth.
It is also the source of the task description for Collection Task Three.
If the basic setting remains unchanged, the appearance of Ash, a android loyal to the company, here is not a good sign.
At the same time, he noticed that David, who came down from the spaceship with everyone else, had a strange expression on his face when he saw Ash.
The two androids looked at each other for a moment, then looked away as if nothing had happened.
Bionic Man, Company, Black Water...
Come to think of it, the black water that is now wreaking havoc on more than a few human colonies could it be the product of Weyland Corporation's research into black water?
The Heavenly Planet is far away from human territory, and the creatures there will not leave on their own.
In You Huan's opinion, it is more likely that the black water was leaked by Weyland Company than that the black water from Paradise Star was spread.
After all, judging from the fact that the founder of Weyland Company was hiding in the team heading to Heaven Star.
Long before these colonists arrived on Paradise, Weyland Corporation had known about the existence of Black Water.
Black water is an organic substance with unlimited potential.
Regardless of the need, Weyland must have started researching black water as soon as it learned about it.
Thinking of this, a task prompt appeared on the panel:
[Normal task: Destroy the conspiracy of the android Ash. [Reward: Subsequent chain tasks are unlocked, evolution point (advanced)*1]]
The long-awaited ordinary task has arrived.
During the time on the spacecraft, so many things happened, but he didn't even see an ordinary mission.
You Huan wondered if factors from the Fenyu world had affected the panel or other things.
Anyway, since the mission appeared, he jumped out of the spaceship.
It passed quickly over everyone's heads.
Following the scent trail that Ash left when he came, he walked all the way.
At this time, everyone was talking to Ash.
"Has everyone on this planet been evacuated?"
When everyone heard the news, they were a little surprised, but also seemed to have expected it.
Ash nodded and said, "During this period, we on Aurora have repeatedly received news that unknown infectious diseases have appeared on many other planets."
"For safety reasons, most people on this planet have already boarded spacecraft to return to their home planet Earth. Only a few people have stayed on."
"Later, the 'Black Plague' really spread here along the routes of commercial spacecraft."
"It was at that time that I came here as a commissioner sent by Earth to deal with this plague."
"Although I have controlled the plague to a certain extent, many people who stayed behind still contracted it. Some died, and some... became monsters."
"So what happened to these black... monsters?"
"There is no other way, we can only humanely destroy them..."
Ash looked gloomy.
Seeing this, Daniels comforted him: "At least, this black... plague can still be controlled. As long as we return to Earth, we still have hope."
Xiao continued, "You were the one who answered our broadcast earlier and said there are large spaceships here, right? Can we borrow them?"
Seeing Ash looking at the cross-shaped spaceship behind her, she added:
"Uh... As you just saw, our spaceship has some problems. It's sometimes working and sometimes not. We want to change the spaceship."
"Yes, there are three large spaceships on the Aurora. You can use them as you wish."
"But..." Ash changed the subject and said apologetically, "You need to pass identity verification to open the spaceship. You are not from here, and your identities are not in the system."
"You must first go to the Colonial Center building in the city center and input your information."
"Then go quickly!"
"However, there are still remnants of the black plague and a small number of monsters in the colonist city today."
"It's okay." Everyone just wanted to change the spaceship and fly back to Earth as soon as possible. What's the point of some black water and black water life?
They all rubbed their hands and said, "Mr. Ash, please show us the way to the Colonial Center Building!"
"Boom!"
You Huan was tracking Ash's breath and not long after he walked, he heard a roar coming from not far away.
He has now entered the only human city on the planet called "Aurora".
This is an extremely magnificent and huge city, but unfortunately it is now deserted.
On the modern streets filled with steel and concrete, only dust is floating in the wind.
The signs on the shops on both sides flickered occasionally and then dimmed again.
Sometimes you can see claw marks on the walls and glass, as well as words such as "Humanity is finished!" and "May the world be destroyed!" spray-painted on the walls.
At first glance, it is extremely desolate.
The roar was several streets away from him, but he immediately recognized it as the sound of Xiao and others using some kind of weapon.
It seems that they have come into conflict with the remaining blackwater life in the city.
Through blood sensing, he discovered that the black water life here was pitifully small compared to the size of the city.
A considerable number of them are concentrated in a certain area and show no signs of moving.
In this case, Xiao and others can finally jump from the horror thriller set to the action movies they prefer.
Relying on various weapons and rich experience, you can make your way through the city.
You Huan ignored them.
Following Ash's scent, he arrived in front of a complex of buildings that looked to be a general hospital.
The moment I stepped into the hospital, a strange sensation of black water spread throughout my body.
It seems that there are some special black water life forms in this hospital.
It seems like I've come to the right place.
After a pause, he continued walking into the hospital.
His figure entering the hospital was recorded by surveillance cameras.
The picture appeared on Ash's electronic screen.
Ash, who had already shown the way to everyone, stood somewhere in the city, frowning slightly as he watched the scene on the surveillance screen.
He was a little confused as to why such a black water creature that he had never seen before appeared and walked into his hospital with a clear purpose.
After thinking for a moment, he pressed an option next to the surveillance screen.
"Boom—"
As You Huan walked into the hospital, he heard a roar coming from the front.
The iron gate of the hospital building, which was originally closed, suddenly opened upwards!
The dark interior of the hospital seemed to be welcoming his arrival.
He was not afraid at all. He spread his sickle wings slightly and walked into the building openly.
Darkness instantly enveloped the vision.
Blackwater Life's ability to capture light waves is unparalleled, and he can still clearly see the scene inside the building.
It looks like a very normal hospital layout.
However, the place was filled with an extremely strong smell of black water, and the sensation of a large group of black water life forms was emanating from under his feet.
It seems that someone has been secretly conducting black water research here...
During his brief period of thought, spots of light began to appear in the dark building.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
Dense machine guns rose from the ceiling, ground and other places of the building, and bullets as dense as a rainstorm instantly flooded the place where he was!
Will add more at a later time.
