Chapter 99

~8 min read 1,537 words

In Elizabeth's fantasy, the situation shouldn't be like this.

At least, it shouldn't be the great 'Creator', like a student who made a mistake, kneeling and bowing, with a face of flattery.

Yes, that's right!

It was the expression of kneeling, bowing, and flattery!

Why could Elizabeth be so sure?

The reason is very simple. When she and her boyfriend went to find Weyland for investment, the expression on their faces was exactly the same as the 'Creator'!

God knows how much psychological 'trauma' they suffered in just over ten minutes.

As for Weyland, who was full of hope, he truly experienced what 'despair' is.

He found the 'Creator', but the situation was different from what he imagined.

But fortunately, Weyland had been traversing for many years and immediately understood the intention of the 'alien life form', so he was not panicked instead.

Isn't it just pledging loyalty?

No problem, absolutely no problem!

As long as he can be granted life extension, pledging loyalty is not a problem at all. At worst, we'll talk about it later.

This has to mention the flexible bottom line of businessmen. Weyland's bottom line was particularly flexible. He was almost at the end of his rope. Let alone pledging loyalty to alien life forms, even if it were betraying humanity, he wouldn't have a second word.

"Right, what was the name of this spaceship?"

Alvin stroked the pilot seat of the spaceship, his eyes full of joy...

Although he couldn't accept it at first glance, as soon as he thought that this thing was about to belong to him, it immediately became much more pleasing to the eye.

"Its name is 'World Master'."

Vigus seemed to gradually accept the fate of being a 'prisoner of war' and very actively began to introduce the various functions of this spaceship to Alvin.

As a small spacecraft of the 'Engineer' race, the appearance is a U-shaped semi-enclosed ring, overall flat, with a diameter of about three hundred meters.

The entire spaceship is made of biological gene modification. To explain it in a category that humans can understand, it is probably that the entire spaceship 'grew up from small', just like cultivating plants, and this can be considered the embodiment of the 'Engineer's' bio-technology.

Its interior is equipped with a small faster-than-light engine, which can sail in the universe at several times the speed of light.

The hardness of the World Master's hull is far beyond the metal of the Weyland Corporation's spaceship. In the movie, when they collided with each other, the human spaceship exploded, while the World Master only crashed.

Moreover, afterward, the heroine and David re-piloted the 'World Master' and flew toward the 'Engineer's' lair, 'Paradise Planet'.

It can be seen that the World Master as a spaceship is definitely the biggest harvest so far.

"If you are willing, I can gift the World Master to you."

Vigus is worthy of being an 'Engineer', and the flexibility of his brain is not inferior to humans at all: "Of course, you need to allow me to pilot the World Master back to 'Paradise Planet' first."

In fact, Vigus didn't care about a small spaceship at all.

As long as he could return to Paradise Planet, if there were no accidents, there should be a 'mothership-class' spaceship there, whose size is a hundred times larger than the 'World Master'.

There is a spaceship larger than the World Master floating on Paradise Planet.

But unfortunately, what Vigus didn't know was that Alvin, who had watched the movie and understood the details, had long known about the giant mothership parked on the ceremonial square of Paradise Planet.

Although the mothership is far larger than the World Master in scale, it unfortunately does not configure any firepower and only serves as a 'port' for docking.

So, Alvin's interest in that mothership is not great, and... it's not cost-effective to force people too hard.

"Good, I allow you to pilot my spaceship and return to Paradise Planet."

Alvin nodded slightly and agreed to Vigus' proposal, but didn't forget to add one point: "Of course, I want to go to Paradise Planet with you. You have no opinion, right?"

"No opinion."

Vigus was already used to it, and besides, what qualification did he have to offer an opinion?

"Right, there is one thing that needs you to help me handle." Alvin looked at him kindly and said in the Engineer's language: "I need a method that can control other creatures."

Vigus was not surprised at all, and even felt it was very reasonable: "Of course, in our Engineer race, this technology is very simple. You only need to implant a nano-organism to completely control the biological nervous system of the other party. If you need it, I can give it to you now."

Worthy of being a side-door race specializing in biology, this thing can be taken out as soon as it is said?

"After going back, get one for that old man."

Alvin said to Vigus.

"No problem."

Vigus nodded.

Thus, the open conspiracy was completed.

"Good, then reorganize on LV-223 for a day, and then set off for Paradise Planet."

Alvin quickly formulated a plan and turned to say to the others: "Since everything has been satisfactorily resolved, everyone should go back to the spaceship. It just so happens that I have something to chat with Mr. Weyland."

"This is my honor, Mr. Alvin."

Weyland was secretly surprised, thinking to himself that he really didn't guess wrong.

However, when Alvin and his party led Vigus, who was clearly not a human, back to the Prometheus, including Captain Hannek and his crew, and even the illegitimate daughter Vickers, they all showed a look of terror, and even firmly refused to open the airlock.

Of course, this little problem, after Alvin blasted the airlock with one shot, Vickers and others immediately showed the unique face-changing speed of humans and 'enthusiastically' welcomed them.

Elizabeth was placed in the fully automated medical pod because of large-area burns.

And Ford, as a biologist, was responsible for taking care of the 'thing' inside, holding the 'Xenomorph embryo' frozen by liquid nitrogen with a bitter face.

The only one who was a bit unhappy was probably Vigus.

His height always hit his head when walking on the spaceship, and looking at the chattering humans around him, he felt very irritable and wished he could crush their heads.

Weyland sat back in his wheelchair and came to the secret cabin with Alvin.

"Sir, as long as you can let me extend my lifespan, I am willing to offer everything!"

As soon as he entered the door, Weyland was a bit impatient, looking at Alvin with fanaticism.

He didn't have much lifespan left, and this operation yielded nothing. If there was no progress, he would probably be hung on the wall soon if there were no accidents.

"For example?"

At the moment, Alvin held his lifeline, and it was not his turn to be anxious.

"I can transfer all the interests of the Weyland Corporation to you!" The reason Weyland said this was not because he was stupid; on the contrary, he was very smart.

The Weyland-Yutani Corporation is very large, involving countless industries. Even if it were really handed over to aliens, wouldn't the other party still need him to manage it?

"I don't need your company."

Alvin shook his head. Mining, industries, etc., have no meaning to him at the moment.

"Then what about android technology?"

Weyland seemed to have made up his mind, gritted his teeth and said in a low voice: "Android technology is the greatest work of my life. I can hand over the complete android technology to you in exchange for the method to extend my life. Is that okay?"

"Not enough."

Alvin was still shaking his head.

This is like a gambler at the gambling table. He holds the cards sufficient to decide the outcome and must squeeze out all the value of the other party!

"Faster-than-light engine! Atmosphere transformation technology! As long as you want... I can give you everything!"

At this moment, Weyland was like a gambler who had lost his eyes red. In order to extend his life, he had completely disregarded everything.

Finally, Alvin seemed to be moved. Looking at Weyland, whose face was flushed, the corners of his mouth rose slightly: "Actually, what I value most is not those technologies, but you... Peter Weyland. You are the 'commodity' with the greatest value."

"I am willing to pledge loyalty to you, Mr. Alvin."

Weyland also smiled, because he knew very well that after the other party said this sentence, he wouldn't let him die.

Just as the alien life form said, he, Peter Weyland, created the Weyland-Yutani Corporation that spans the universe with his own strength. He is the commodity with the greatest value!

Gentlemen, let me slow down for a few days, save some manuscripts, and then continue to work ten thousand words a day. I'm thick-skinned and ask for a wave of monthly tickets. I'm naked on the shelves and hit Black Myth: Sun Wukong. The traffic is pitifully low, and the recommendation is not enough. Gentlemen, help me. I am very grateful!
