Chapter 172: Alien Research Results and Androids

The embryonic effect of the Alien eggs was great. Although there were still "defects" at present, it was still a major "lethal weapon."

Although in the Warhammer universe, the current "Alien" couldn't play much of a role, even the lower-hive gangs could probably slaughter it.

But it couldn't be denied that the Alien had extremely outstanding growth potential, which was the point Alvin valued most.

As for the android, that was out of consideration for another aspect.

Frequently traveling in various worlds, when facing all kinds of dangers, he must have a tool that could help him explore the danger.

And the android developed by Weyland just happened to meet this demand.

First of all, strictly speaking, an android didn't count as life; it was merely a biochemical person with thinking ability, which could be placed in a private space.

In this way, Alvin could be liberated. For example, when he needed to explore a dangerous area in the future, he could completely let the android go, which was also a guarantee for himself.

What, an android is also a person?

No, no, no. From the subsequent series developed by Weyland, an android wasn't a person in the true sense; they were merely a tool.

Therefore, there was absolutely no need to have any psychological burden.

Regarding the needs Alvin put forward, Peter was very smart and didn't ask for the reason at all, just cautiously reminded him: "Sir, the current 'Alien' life form holds great hostility toward any creature. You need to be extremely careful about this point."

Why build a space station on LV-223?

The reason was simple, because in the process of researching the "Alien" life form once, a researcher made an operational error and was parasitized.

The things that followed were simple. Soon, the research department built on the ground of LV-223 was completely captured by the Alien. If it weren't for the Space Jockey of the Engineer race led by Vickers who timely controlled the disaster of the Alien expansion on LV-223, I'm afraid the entire planet would have fallen by now.

Therefore, after that incident, Peter built a space station in space, transferring the research from the ground to space.

And strictly limited the scope of "Alien" research, only in the lowest area, so that once an accident happened, the space could separate the lower layer and let it crash directly.

The LV-223 ground research institute wasn't completely abandoned, but was changed into an observation center, specially used for cultivating and domesticating "Alien" life forms.

"You don't need to worry about this point."

Alvin waved his hand. To humans, the Alien might count as a threat.

But, in front of an Epsilon-level psyker, the difficulty of pinching an Alien to death was not much harder than pinching an ant.

"Sir, may I trouble you to ask, what are the uses of the android you need?" Seeming to be avoiding suspicion, after asking this sentence, Peter specially added another sentence: "I don't have any other meaning, sir, just that I need to know your needs to better customize the android you need."

He understood too well. Alvin liked this kind of Weyland, sensible and thoughtful, so he smiled: "Used for exploration, dealing with all kinds of unknown dangers, traps, environments, etc. Do you have any suggestions?"

Peter pondered for a few seconds, and an idea popped into his mind: "Sir, I can implant the Engineer's biological armor for you. In this way, it can make up for the android's defects, and at the same time, it can also bear risks and attacks for you when necessary. What do you think?"

"Not bad, just do as you say."

Alvin nodded, happily accepting this suggestion.

"Manufacturing an android and cultivating a biological core needs about two days." Peter said cautiously: "Sir, during this time, do you want to go to LV-223 to see? We set up an Alien cultivation and training center there."

"Sounds a bit like a 'zoo'?" Alvin raised his eyebrows, his interest piqued.

"In a certain sense, it is indeed a 'zoo'."

Peter answered with a smile: "We noticed that changing the Alien from the genetic level is difficult, so we intend to use the domestication method to let the Alien iterate, thereby achieving this goal."

"Good, then let's go see."

Anyway, it needed two days, so Alvin didn't mind going to stroll around the so-called "Alien zoo."

Piloting a small spaceship, after arriving at the LV-223 planet, Alvin saw the "big head" that mixed the Engineer's unique architectural style at a glance: "Is the zoo inside here?"

The researcher in charge was cautious and answered: "Yes, sir. Because the 'Alien' is an extremely dangerous life form, we entrusted the Engineer to build a specialized cultivation park here. Currently, the Aliens inside have been bred to the third generation."

A cultivation park is okay... Alvin looked at that weird building, and a thought suddenly popped into his mind.

Isn't this Jurassic Crisis magic-modified version, Alien Crisis?

Really don't know if it continues to be cultivated, will there be such a day in the future that Weyland turns the Alien into a large theme park and then sells tickets?

Moreover, the entire planetary ecological environment of LV-223 was also re-transformed by the Weyland company.

The process of sightseeing, apart from being relatively novel at the beginning, was a bit dull afterward.

But there was one point worth praising. In order to explore the diversity of the Alien, Weyland specially transported various creatures from Earth, specially providing Alien embryos for parasitism.

Finally, two types of breeds were born, which were considered relatively excellent among them.

One type was the "Hunter type" that possessed explosive sprinting speed after parasitizing the large feline creature, the cheetah.

The other type was the "Hound type" that possessed extremely excellent endurance and tracking after parasitizing the large canine creature.

Both had their own different advantages, were bred separately in the park, and underwent optimization iteration. And the most primitive Alien breed, after experiencing several iterations and a certain special genetic mutation, actually produced a super-large Alien. But what made Alvin relatively regretful was that it wasn't an Alien Queen.

After staying for two days, his android was manufactured.

The moment Peter led that android into the room, Alvin couldn't help but reveal a surprised look.

If he weren't sure that this was the Alien universe, he would even suspect whether he was in Warhammer.

The height of that android was about 2.5 meters, almost like an iron tower, with perfect muscle lines like ancient Greek sculptures. Just looking at that burly figure, it already had a shadow of a Space Marine. The only difference was that it didn't have implants.

"Please allow me to formally introduce it to you..."

Peter was glowing, extremely proud: "This is the android model 'Heracles' I specially developed for you. It gathers the highest technical crystallization of Weyland-Yutani at present and can completely act as complex tasks such as exploration and assault. Moreover, its physical fitness is five times that of an ordinary human!"

The 'Heracles' model android could completely act as a degraded Space Marine!

Alvin was very satisfied with the android Peter specially designed for him. With such a guardian god, in the future when exploring other worlds, the risk could be reduced a lot. ===== CHAPTER 173 =====
