They traveled through time at the same time, but the villainous scientist

Chapter 392 Score Farming in Progress

The company's confidential archives contain only a few words about the scientific expedition that took place in the 1990s: the expedition team was forced to evacuate due to an unprecedented extreme blizzard, and the project failed.

The entrance to the ruins was completely buried by a new layer of ice, and not even a clear photograph or a living specimen could be brought out.

In other words, there is no storyline in this world where the Predator has ever visited.

Because of that costly failure, and the fierce competition with several other mega-corporations around the world in the decades that followed, Wieland Corporation was no longer able to openly return to Antarctica.

Because any large-scale excavation operation will immediately raise high alert among competitors.

This is why, in the Alien 1 storyline, the company only sent one interplanetary mining ship to retrieve the alien eggs.

But now, everything is different.

Charles Wieland II's breathing became heavy. Looking at Zhang Qi's calm face, he finally understood the other party's intention.

Have conventional armed forces lost their standard of measurement?

Indeed, when you hold "God" in your hands, your enemy should naturally be "Demon".

"I understand."

Charles's voice was hoarse, but it carried a sense of resolute determination.

The company will restart the 'South Star' project.

For you...for 'Watson,' the grandest stage is prepared.

Once the order was given, the massive Wieland-Yutani Corporation, a super-corporation, began to operate with unprecedented efficiency.

A massive fleet, comprised of state-of-the-art icebreakers, heavy engineering equipment, and elite security forces, assembled in a very short time and set sail for the ends of the earth.

At the same time, the company's public relations department launched an unprecedented media campaign.

Holographic advertisements and news headlines on major information platforms were dominated by one message: "Weyland-Yutani Corporation has achieved a decisive breakthrough in the field of 'post-human technology,' and the next generation of human enhancement technology is about to be announced."

This bombshell instantly ignited global attention.

The eyes of all competitors, including Prodigy Corporation and Tyrrell Group, were drawn to this carefully crafted fog of mystery.

Countless corporate spies and hackers began frantically infiltrating Weyland's biological laboratories, attempting to steal this technology that could change the future.

They never dreamed that Weyland's real target wasn't in those bright and clean skyscrapers, but beneath the desolate ice fields of Antarctica.

Antarctica, Ellsworth Land.

The biting cold wind swirled with ice crystals.

Here, the concept of life is compressed to its limit.

However, at this moment, this deathly white world was shattered by the roar of steel.

The massive laser drilling platform emitted a deep rumble as a beam of intense heat pierced through the kilometer-thick, eternal ice sheet.

Around it, countless engineering vehicles and workers wearing heavy exoskeletons were methodically clearing away the melted ice and rocks.

Finally, with a dull thud, the end of the laser beam touched some kind of unnatural creation.

In the surveillance footage, a huge and deep hole appeared at the bottom of the ice layer, revealing a corner of a magnificent building with a metallic texture and exotic style.

"We've made it through!"

An uncontrollable roar of excitement came from the communication channel.

The subsequent exploration went exceptionally smoothly, as if the ruins were simply buried due to the weather, rather than being protected by some other force.

When the first exploration team ventured deep into the pyramid-like structure and saw the reliefs on the walls depicting strange humanoid creatures hunting another terrifying monster, everyone confirmed that it was indeed an altar built for "hunting".

When they finally arrived at the vast, church-like sacrificial hall, they found the "Holy Grail" that the Weyland family had been searching for for nearly a century and a half—hundreds and thousands of silent, leathery alien eggs.

Under the spotlight, they exhibited an eerie pulse of life, with the cross-shaped opening at the top pulsating slightly, as if breathing.

The live samples were quickly transported to a secret biological base located on a remote island in the Pacific Ocean.

To test the potential of this alien creature, researchers deployed various apex predators from Earth as hosts.

The parasitized Siberian tiger gave birth to an alien with a slender body, moving as fast as the wind, and its sharp claws could even easily cut through special steel plates.

But the most astonishing creation came from a genetically modified adult male silverback gorilla.

After the gorilla's body, its chest violently ripped open, was dragged out of the isolation room, a nightmarish creature appeared before everyone.

It is more robust and muscular than the ordinary alien, covered with a thick, skeletal black exoskeleton, and its muscular limbs are full of explosive power.

It was like an out-of-control heavy tank, rampaging through the test area and smashing huge dents into the alloy walls with brute force.

"Fire! Test its defenses!"

Upon receiving the order, the automatic pulse rifle turrets deployed around the perimeter simultaneously unleashed a barrage of fire.

A dense storm of bullets instantly enveloped the monster. However, a chilling scene unfolded.

The bullets struck its heavy outer armor, scattering a series of blinding sparks, but producing a clanging sound like metal striking metal. Most of the bullets were deflected, leaving only faint white spots on them.

"My God... its exoskeleton density exceeds that of our composite armor!"

A researcher gasped in shock.

This alien, incorporating gorilla genes, is undoubtedly a biological weapon born purely for killing.

However, in Zhang Qi's view, this was far from enough.

“Deploy it to the extreme testing range,” his voice rang out calmly. “Let Watson go and have a go at it.”

……

Underground extreme testing ground.

Charles Wieland II and the board of directors once again stood behind that thick reinforced glass.

This time, however, their faces no longer showed simple anticipation, but rather a sense of tension about the unknown.

On the screen, the ape-like alien codenamed "Tyrant" paced anxiously around the arena, each step causing the ground to tremble slightly.

The gate on the other side slowly rose.

Watson, still wearing his loose-fitting lab coat, quietly walked out.

"Roar--!"

Almost at the same time Watson appeared, the "Tyrant" let out a deafening roar, sensing the threat posed by this newcomer.

With a sudden burst of power from its hind legs, its massive body transformed into a black afterimage, charging towards Hua Sheng with an aura of crushing everything in its path.

Inside the observation room, several directors even subconsciously took a step back.

Faced with this devastating impact, Watson simply stood still, without even changing his posture.

Just as the slimy claws were about to touch him, his clothes spontaneously combusted again, instantly vaporizing.

A perfectly formed body, gleaming with the luster of metal and polymer, is exposed to the air. Battle mode activated!
"boom!"

A loud bang was heard, but it wasn't a mass of blood and flesh flying everywhere; rather, it was a head-on collision between steel and bone armor.

Watson simply raised his right arm and steadily blocked the "tyrant's" full-force attack.

The immense impact, powerful enough to smash through a wall, was transmitted to his arm, yet it left him completely still.

The "tyrant" seemed stunned, unable to comprehend how this seemingly insignificant creature could withstand its power.

It opened its terrifying, layered mandibles, and its inner teeth shot towards Watson's face like lightning.

Watson was faster.

His left hand rose instantly and precisely pinched the ejected inner canine tooth.

Acidic blood dripped from the alien's mouth, splashing onto his arm with a sizzling, corrosive sound and wisps of blue smoke, yet it could not penetrate the layer of silver-black reinforced skin.

The people in the observation room had forgotten to breathe.

The next second, Watson exerted his power.

With a crisp "crack," the incredibly hard inner tooth was crushed by his bare hands!

The excruciating pain caused the "tyrant" to let out a piercing scream. It frantically swung its other claw, reaching for Watson's chest.

Watson neither dodged nor evaded, but instead yanked hard with his left hand, which was gripping the remnant of the Tyrant's inner teeth, while simultaneously clenching his right fist and unleashing a straight punch from his waist.
As he moved, the arc reactor inside his body began to operate at overclock, and a huge amount of energy gathered in his right fist.

This is Kamen Rider's signature move, the Rider Fist!

There was no earth-shattering explosion, only a dull "thud" that made your heart stop!
Time seemed to slow down at that moment.

The tyrant's massive body shuddered violently, and spiderweb-like cracks instantly spread across the bone armor on its chest, which was strong enough to withstand pulse bullets, centered on Watson's fist.

Immediately afterwards, with a "poof" sound, the entire breastplate collapsed inward and burst!
Watson's fist had completely sunk into its chest cavity.

The gorilla-like alien's massive body froze. It slowly lowered its head, staring incredulously at the fist that had pierced through its chest.

Watson slowly withdrew his arm, which was covered in green, acidic blood and shattered internal organs. The Tyrant's massive body, like a mountain that had lost its support, crashed to the ground and fell silent.

From start to finish, it didn't take more than a minute.

This was a crushing defeat, a pure crushing defeat in terms of strength.

The observation room was deathly silent.

Charles Wieland II was pale, his lips trembling slightly. He looked down at the unyielding figure bathed in alien blood, unable to utter a sound.

Monster... no, it's a god...

Zhang Qi looked at the distraught faces behind the glass, but his heart remained unmoved.

At the same time, a stream of information that only he could see appeared on his retina.

[Defeat the mutant alien (gorilla host), gain 850 reward points, and complete one D-level side quest.]

Oh? That's interesting!
A barely perceptible smile appeared on Zhang Qi's lips.

For Watson now, killing this ape-like alien is no more difficult than crushing an ant.

However, according to the [God's] judgment, this is still a high-value kill.

This suggests that the evaluation system of the "God" does not seem to take into account the enhancements that reincarnators gain within the story world.

According to its data, Watson's strength may still be stuck at the moment he was "created".

This is a huge vulnerability that can be exploited indefinitely.

……

The next two months

On the isolated island base, various mutated aliens became Watson's "sparring partners".

From the elusive "messenger" with snake genes to the "guardian" with astonishing defensive capabilities, all were easily torn apart by his iron fist with its tens of tons of strength.

Each kill earned Zhang Qi between 500 and 1000 reward points.

His reward points began to grow at an unprecedented rate.

During this time, because he had run out of time to exchange, he briefly returned to the [Main God Space] and spent some reward points to extend his stay in this world by several months.

Meanwhile, at Zhang Qi's suggestion, Wieland Corporation established a project team for alien research.

According to the Prometheus storyline, the Xenomorphs did not evolve naturally; they were created by the Engineers.

Anything that is 'designed' can definitely be 'deciphered'.

Thus, after obtaining the alien's DNA sequence, Zhang Qi packaged it and sent it to his counterpart in the EVA and Guyver worlds.

Upon receiving this message, he immediately began to utilize the vast resources at his disposal in both worlds to reverse engineer it.

Although aliens are very strong, they are no match for super-lifeforms like the Apostles and the Beast Gods.

Just two weeks later, the seemingly flawless genetic sequence of the alien was completely deciphered.

Holding the complete genome map that would drive any biologist mad, Zhang Qi convened the board of directors once again.

"Gentlemen, the success of the 'Hercules' project has created an invincible guardian for us. But its cost is high and it is rare."

"But the Xenomorph is different."

He projected a new proposal onto the holographic screen.

"[Project Alien Legion]".

"Now, we have the key to creating it."

We can 'mass produce' them on a large scale, just like we produce canned goods.

We only need to provide enough organic matter as 'feed' to obtain an endless supply of fearless biological weapons.

His words were like a nuclear bomb dropped into a calm lake, causing an uproar throughout the board of directors.

Fear, greed, excitement, hesitation... a mix of emotions swirled on the faces of these business tycoons.

Zhang Qi watched them quietly; he knew they couldn't refuse the offer.

Human body modification technology is powerful, but it is also very expensive.

After he completely deciphered the genetic sequence of the alien, he was able to mass-produce these biological weapons.

This is an irresistible temptation for a mega-corporation that prioritizes profit above all else.

For Zhang Qi himself, the significance of this plan is equally profound.

Because this means a stable, efficient, and virtually unlimited source of reward points...
