Before setting off for Earth, Fang Zheng had already discussed the transformation of the alien with Miluen and had a general idea.
In the "Alien" series, the alien itself has a system. The Alien Queen is responsible for laying eggs, from which facehuggers are born. The facehuggers then attack the host, and then the aliens are born, and then the aliens use this to expand their population.
But in Miluen's opinion, the ecological cycle of the aliens is both primitive and inefficient. Although the aliens can absorb the excellent genes of the host for improvement, this is completely different from the Zerg. The Zerg actively collects and absorbs excellent genes. The aliens absorb them passively, which can be said to be a bit like hitting the jackpot. The host is what the alien is, and although the aliens have high fertility, the inheritance of genes is not preserved. This method may be able to effectively disperse risks in the early stages of a race, by devouring the excellent genes of the host to transform itself to find the best path of evolution and development, but it is meaningless if these excellent genes cannot be integrated.
It's like a computer that has finally installed a lot of software and optimized, but has to be reinstalled again when it gets a new computer. Miluen doesn't even look down on this so-called gene engulfment efficiency.
So in the end, Fang Zheng and Milune decided to optimize the original genes of the opposite sex, eliminating useless things like face huggers and alien queens, and only needed normal alien bodies.
Fang Zheng's requirements for the aliens are to lurk, assassinate, and then explode. Just like a virus, it lurks in the body of an ordinary person without any abnormality at first, then spreads quietly, and then explodes into a deadly plague, completely sweeping away everything. Therefore, the aliens adjusted by Miluen and Lulana will also undergo drastic changes.
First, the Alien's form is fixed to the combat Alien, which is the full-body black mature form in "Alien vs. Predator". It will not change due to the change of the host. This is also a sign of the Alien's complete integration into the Zerg. Secondly, the four dorsal tubes on the back of the Alien have also been transformed into a hydralisk-like spike. This allows the Alien to not only hunt in close quarters, but also launch sneak attacks from a distance like the Hydralisk.
The most terrifying thing about the aliens is their ability to reproduce, and Milune has done a better job in this regard. The original method of reproduction of the aliens was that the alien eggs needed to fuse the host's genes and optimize them, but the aliens after being transformed by the Zerg lost this ability, so the original face huggers also lost their meaning. On the contrary, the aliens after being transformed by the Zerg have a more terrifying reproduction ability - when they attack, they will inject a genetic virus into the enemy's body, and anyone who is scratched, bitten or stabbed by the aliens will be injected with this virus.
After that, these alien viruses transformed by the swarm will begin to frantically devour the host's body nutrients, regardless of whether they are dead or alive. This means that once you are injured by an alien, whether you are dead or alive, you will become a host for the alien, thus producing a brand new alien.
To be honest, Fang Zheng was completely disappointed when he heard Miluen's idea. If the aliens had this ability earlier, there would be no point in making a series of movies. I'm afraid that humans and the Iron Blood would have died long ago!
From this we can see that it is no wonder that the Zerg have become the overlords of the universe, while the Aliens can only play minor roles in movies...it's fate.
“……!!”
Just when Fang Zheng was bored and letting himself go, suddenly, the originally dim hall began to become bright, and electric currents emerged from the chains and hit the body of the Alien Queen. Seeing this scene, Fang Zheng immediately focused his mind and looked forward.
"roar……!!"
At this moment, the Alien Queen was roaring crazily. Her genes had been completely transformed by Lulana, and now the Alien Queen had lost her original power. Her huge body began to rise and fall constantly, and under the stimulation of the electric current, a new life form began to take shape in her body.
"——!!——!!"
Feeling the power in her body disappear, the Alien Queen began to shake her body frantically in an attempt to break free, but the chains that Tiexue used to bind her would not be easily broken. Soon, accompanied by a shrill wail, the Alien Queen in front of Fang Zheng struggled violently, and then collapsed limply, no longer responding. And then, the back of her huge abdomen, which was used to lay eggs, exploded with a "puff". Then, Fang Zheng saw several larvae "joyfully" jumping out of it, circling around in front of the Alien Queen's body.
"Only three?"
Looking at the larvae in front of him, Fang Zheng frowned, then looked at Lu Lana beside him.
"This experimental subject is too weak to raise more larvae."
That's true. This alien queen hasn't eaten for more than a hundred years and has been frozen here. She was just forced to give birth. I'm afraid her stomach must be empty a long time ago.
"Start hatching."
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng didn't say much, but shrugged his shoulders. With the help of the power of psionic energy, he had seen three Iron Blood Warriors who came to take the "exam" leave the mothership and come to this ice field. And if it goes as expected, these Iron Blood Warriors will start to be invincible.
That's perfect, let's use them to test the power of the Zerg aliens.
People are brave because they are ignorant.
At the same time that Fang Zheng was hatching the larvae, the exploration team sponsored by Weyland Industries that came here to dig out the "mysteries of human history" had also arrived inside the pyramid. If they knew that there were terrible monsters under the pyramid trying to attack them, or that there were invisible aliens behind them trying to take their heads as trophies, they would probably be more nervous.
But unfortunately, they know nothing about this.
"Nymph, close the gate."
Seeing this group of explorers walking towards the hall, Fang Zheng raised his eyebrows and immediately gave Nymph an order. In the movie, the whole trial was triggered after everyone entered this hall and got the Predator's weapons. But Fang Zheng currently wanted to test the difference in strength between his Zerg Alien and the Predator. An unarmed Predator is not a good test subject, so he certainly won't let these guys who are looking for death take away the Predator's weapons.
"Yes, Master."
Hearing Fang Zheng's order, Nymph, who was in the spaceship, immediately reached out and tapped lightly on the keyboard in front of her.
“Boom…!”
"What's wrong? What happened?"
The explorers were startled by the sudden shaking and noise, and then they saw the stone door of the hall in front of them falling down quickly!
"No, let's go in!"
The leading woman rushed towards the falling stone door, trying to rush into the hall before it completely closed. But unfortunately, her speed was still not as fast as the stone door closing speed. When the woman rushed to the stone door, the entire door had been completely closed with a "bang".
“Damn it!”
Looking at the closed stone door in front of her, the woman slammed the wall heavily. The group of scientists who were still frightened beside her also came to their senses and looked around tremblingly.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
"That's all for today."
Ignoring everyone's panic, the leading woman shouted and then pointed at her watch.
"We must return to the camp immediately. It's obviously not safe here. If we are trapped and die here, it will be very troublesome!"
"this……"
Hearing the woman's words, everyone showed a hesitant expression, and then they turned their heads and looked at the old man walking in the middle of the crowd. In the movie, they found the weapons of the Iron Warrior in this hall and began their road to death. But now, these people didn't know what was inside, so they were not so resistant to the woman's orders.
"Okay... let's go back first..."
Facing the inquiring eyes of the crowd, the old man thought for a moment and then nodded. Obviously, he also felt that this was not safe. After hearing the old man's answer, the woman also breathed a sigh of relief, then took out the radio and began to call the people staying in the other room.
"This is Team A. We are planning to return to camp. What is your status? Please answer?"
"This is Team B! We're trapped in here!"
"What?"
Everyone was shocked to hear the answer coming from the radio.
"Is anyone injured?"
"No, but this damn place... hurry up and find a way to get us out! Wait, there seems to be something... damn, what is this? Be careful!"
“Bang, bang!!”
"Team B? Team B?!!"
Everyone was shocked to hear the screams and gunshots coming from the radio. They hurried to the sacrificial tomb and found that it was indeed blocked by a heavy stone door and could not be opened at all.
With no other options, they had to choose to return to the camp first, planning to take out the explosives and blow up the stone door directly. After making the decision, the group hurriedly left the pyramid, not noticing that three transparent figures passed by them.
It is true.
Fang Zheng nodded after seeing this scene through the psychic. It seemed that for the three Iron-blooded Warriors, completing the exam was more important. In the movie, when the weapons were taken away, the Iron-blooded Warriors did not kill old men like Weland. So now that they did not take the weapons away, the Iron-blooded Warriors would not bother them.
Soon, under Fang Zheng's watchful eyes, these iron-blooded warriors passed through the passage and came to the hall. They easily opened the blocked door, then opened the sarcophagus and took out their own weapons from it.
And at this moment, the trial officially began.
