Chapter 98
In the negotiation with the alien life 'Engineer' representative, Vigus.
Both sides upheld a good, friendly, and harmonious vision, jointly discussed cooperation matters, and achieved good progress.
In this regard, 'Engineer' representative Vigus expressed heartfelt gratitude to Alvin.
On the level of technical exchange between the two races, Vigus fully exerted the spirit of humanitarianism, helpfulness, self-sacrifice, etc.
The 'Racial Peace' meeting came to a successful conclusion.
Vigus voluntarily 'shared' the technology related to the Engineer race.
For example, biological gene technology, which is mainly manifested in the armor worn by the Engineers.
Different from the armor developed by humans, the Engineer's 'armor' is a mechanism similar to some kind of 'symbiosis', which is completely integrated with the skin.
This point can be seen from the biological armor on Vigus.
The technology of the Engineers at the biological gene level is even slightly higher than that of the human Empire in the Warhammer universe.
This special biological armor not only provides great defensive power but also has regenerative properties, which is the same as biological self-healing of cells, and because it is completely integrated with the skin, it is similar to the black carapace of Space Marines, and can provide survival ability even in alien environments.
The armor completely fused with the skin is only the inner armor. Engineers can also wear various outer armors according to different needs.
Secondly, it is the gene editing technology project that Alvin values most and cares about most!
If Vigus can be given sufficient time, combined with the technical ideas of other worlds, he can absolutely edit a brand-new, obedient, fearless 'Xenomorph' army!
As for the Engineer's spaceship, although it has a faster-than-light engine, the speed is really a bit...
But based on the principle of 'since you are here', even a mosquito leg is meat. Alvin decided to snatch... no, borrow it, and then throw it into the Marvel Universe.
When there is a suitable opportunity in the future, it can be sold to the Mechanicus.
I believe that with the character of the Mechanicus, it is very difficult to refuse such a spaceship possessing faster-than-light engine technology.
What? Heresy?
Non-existent. Who doesn't know that the Mechanicus is the biggest 'heretic'?
Those things in their inventory, if they were exploded, would be much more terrifying than his little things.
Of course, the 'exchange' of technology cannot be completed overnight.
"Then, happy cooperation." Seeing the cooperation reached, Alvin immediately changed his expression, enthusiastically supported the 'Engineer', and smiled kindly: "Don't be so nervous, Vigus. From now on, everyone is a friend. Relax."
You call this 'friend'?
A person who talks about destroying the life of an entire planet, actually has the face to say that everyone is a friend?
If it weren't for the fact that the 'Engineer's' language really lacked vocabulary for 'cursing', I'm afraid Vigus would have started spraying long ago.
But now, no matter how resentful Vigus was, he could only accept it.
He had been sleeping for a full two thousand years and didn't know what happened to his home planet, but it was certain that something big must have happened!
If it weren't for this, the plan to destroy humans would never have been interrupted.
From the moment humans appeared on the spaceship, Vigus immediately judged the conclusion, so he swallowed his anger and agreed to Alvin's request.
"I hope you can keep your promise."
Vigus, although very resentful, still hoped to protect his home planet, looking at Alvin seriously: "I don't know much about the technology of the Engineer race. My main responsibility is to destroy humans, so... I hope you can take me back to my home planet, and then I will hand over all the technology to you."
"Of course, I don't mind going back to your home planet with you."
Alvin nodded with a smile and agreed to Vigus' request.
"Aren't you afraid that once I find my home planet, I will take action immediately?" Vigus had some doubts in his heart. The other party actually trusted him so much?
You must know that even if the Engineer race has declined, as long as they can find the 'Elders', then rising again is just a matter of time.
The Engineer race at its peak would have no problem traversing the entire universe.
Where did the other party get the confidence?
"Believe me, Vigus."
Alvin said slowly: "Trust is the basis for each other. And if you betray the trust I have in you, then next time... I can guarantee you that I will mobilize the largest fleet, burn your home planet, and even the planets with traces of Engineers into glass, and completely exterminate your race!"
Don't ask, asking is Exterminatus warning!
Even if there is no way now, Alvin just doesn't believe that he won't be able to kill an Engineer in the future?
Vigus was dumbfounded.
His original intention was to test it, but who knew he would test such a result?
Although Alvin was smiling, the coldness contained in the bottom of his eyes made Vigus feel cold all over.
This tone, demeanor, experience... Vigus didn't believe it if he hadn't exterminated hundreds of races.
Especially that sentence about 'burning the entire planet into glass' directly outlined a tragic, extinct, and terrifying scene like purgatory in his mind!
How cruel a race must be to talk about exterminating a race completely?
Vigus shivered, and the only thought left in his mind was immediately cut off by him: "Please rest assured, I will keep my promise. I hope you can also keep your promise."
"A very wise choice."
Looking at Vigus, who seemed to have been scared out of his wits, Alvin tried to make his tone as gentle as possible: "Believe me, Vigus, the future you will be grateful for the choice you made today."
Ending the conversation, Alvin turned his gaze to the others: "Tell everyone a good news. Your Creator, after friendly consultation with me, voluntarily decided to help us, put down hatred, and no longer destroy humans."
Looking at the reluctant Vigus, everyone suddenly fell into a strange silence.
Vol... voluntarily?
Weyland looked at the resentful 'Engineer', and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.
Are you sure it's really voluntary?
Although the language is not clear, at least from the expression, it is completely not the case!
This 'Engineer' was filled with grief and indignation, not looking like 'voluntary', but rather like being 'coerced'.
"That, sir"
But Weyland on the side couldn't care about that much. He was afraid that if he didn't ask now, he wouldn't have a chance: "Can you help me ask him if he can grant me immortality!"
Alvin glanced at Vigus on the side: "This old man wants you to help him become immortal."
Vigus, upon hearing this, first looked at Weyland, hesitated for a few seconds, and said: "In my race, there is no concept of 'immortality', but if gene editing is specifically performed, it can extend his life. How long it can be depends on the situation of the race."
"Oh."
Alvin nodded slightly, turned to Weyland and said: "He said no, you don't deserve it."
Are you fooling a ghost?
Weyland's mouth twitched, and there seemed to be ten thousand horses galloping in his heart.
Even if he were a fool, he should know that such a long paragraph, how could it be just these two sentences when translated?
But unfortunately, the initiative was in the hands of others, and he could only pretend to smile on the surface.
Otherwise, what can he do?
A living example is right in front of his eyes!
The great 'Creator' was beaten up by someone, and his eyes became clear.
