Of course, it was just a joke.
Although Fangzheng's men did add the Xenomorphs to the swarm, strictly speaking, they were Xenomorphs from the world of "Alien vs. Predator", not the Xenomorphs from "Alien". Well, it was a bit roundabout, but that was what it meant.
After all, there were Xenomorphs and Predators first, and then there was Alien vs. Predator. The latter could be said to be a derivative of the former, which meant that the two Xenomorphs were sisters. Even if they looked exactly the same, they were still two completely different individuals.
Just like in "Batman vs. Superman".
"Who are you people?"
Ripley looked at the girls in front of her in surprise and asked. Not only her, but the others were also curious and puzzled about the group of girls who appeared here. They did rescue a girl who was hiding earlier, but the girl was unkempt and malnourished. She was so frightened that she could not even speak.
But these young ladies were completely different. They were dressed in strange, gorgeous, and clean outfits. They even held strange weapons in their hands, and their faces didn't look nervous at all. In fact, they seemed even calmer than the professional Marines on their side.
"Passersby."
The red ponytail only paused for a moment, then immediately confirmed the situation and casually replied.
She replied casually, "We're here to deal with the aftermath. Our purpose should be similar to yours."
"You mean …."
Hearing this, the man in the military uniform walked out from behind.
"You're also here to destroy the Xenomorphs? Whose orders did you receive? The colony is the property of the company. I've never heard of it …. "
"It's none of your business."
The red ponytail did not even bother to make up an excuse. She gestured for the others to put down their weapons before she spoke.
"In short, leave the monsters here to us. You guys … can go back to sleep."
"Leave them to you?"
Hearing this, another soldier whistled and looked at Red Ponytail with a grin. He shook the heavy machine gun in his hand.
"Hey, little girl, you're exaggerating. We have guns. No matter what kind of monster it is, one shot is enough to smash them to pieces."
"Guns are useless against Xenomorphs."
The red ponytail did not care at all.
"And when the bullets run out, you're dead …. So the best choice is to stay in the armoured vehicle."
"What did you say …?"
Just as the atmosphere between the two sides became tense again, the walkie-talkie of the soldier in the back rang. He tilted his head and said something before turning to the crowd.
"We've found the colony residents. Everyone, prepare to assemble immediately."
Having said that, he looked at the red ponytail again.
"I don't know who you are, but if you want to help, you can do anything."
After saying this, the soldier turned and left with his subordinates, while Xiao Huan walked to Red Ponytail's side.
"Xiao Hong? What should we do? "
"Follow him."
"Are they from another world?"
"Similar to the NPCs in games."
Considering that these magical girls were following her on their first mission across worlds, Red Ponytail explained a little.
"Observe carefully. They will give you some information. How you use this information is up to you."
"Then, our mission this time is to rescue those colony residents."
Xing Zi hurriedly asked, but the red ponytail shrugged and did not answer.
"Let's go."
If Red Ponytail's guess was not wrong, they were currently in the plot of Alien 2.
In Alien 1, Ripley piloted a cargo ship to deliver the goods. On the way, she received an unknown distress signal, so she landed on planet LV426. They then found an alien spaceship, and one of them was attacked and infected by the Xenomorph ….
When the captain tried to return to the spaceship with the attacked crew, he was refused by Ripley. According to the spaceship's safety rules, he had to be quarantined for 24 hours, or the whole spaceship might be infected (Ripley's choice turned out to be the right one). Surprisingly, the captain, as the supreme commander of the spaceship, refused to accept this. He forced the attacked crew back to the spaceship. Although Ripley refused to accept this order, someone eventually opened the hatch and let them in.
Needless to say, the Xenomorph was born and wiped out the entire spaceship. In the end, Ripley detonated the spaceship and went into hibernation mode. That was the end of the first movie.
To be honest, when Fangzheng watched the movie, he felt that it was an idiot. Although there was indeed an inside story, as the commander of the ship, why did he not abide by the rules and regulations and take the lead in violating them?
Fifty years later, the hibernating Ripley was discovered and returned to Earth. Then, because the colony on planet LV426 had lost contact, the company sent her and a group of marines to investigate the situation and rescue the colony residents there.
As one of the most famous series in the history of sci-fi movies, Alien had a very "politically incorrect" part. Generally speaking, Hollywood movies would not film a child's death, but Alien was an exception. At the end of the second Alien movie, Ripley escaped the planet with a child she rescued from the colony, but in the third movie, the little girl died. This was unacceptable to many audiences, and the movie's reviews became not very high because of this.
Similarly, in the second Alien vs. Predator movie, there was also a scene where a little boy was parasitized by a facehugger and died. At that time, it also attracted a lot of negative comments.
However, this was all in the future, and there was no need to mention it now.
Soon, just like in the movie, Ripley and her group found the signal of other colony residents. They were currently in the freezer on the third floor of the processing plant. Although they did not know what was going on with these people, they still decided to go and search. The red ponytail and the other girls naturally followed along.
Of course, the red ponytail did not mind telling them some of the characteristics of the Xenomorphs along the way. After all, a little more information meant a little more chance of success.
"So, we are likely to face dozens or even more monsters?"
After listening to the red ponytail's introduction, the soldiers all sucked in a breath of cold air. The soldier in the lead frowned with a solemn expression.
"Basically, there are as many Xenomorphs as there are residents in the colony. There's no need for you to save them. Judging from the current situation, they have been brought to their nests and parasitized. Now, they're just waiting to break out of their shells. You're just giving those Xenomorphs a beautiful gift of new life."
The red ponytail's expression did not change. She only said what she wanted to say. What others thought had nothing to do with her.
"My suggestion is to detonate the entire third processing plant and blow everything inside to smithereens. Then, you take this little girl and leave this planet immediately … Of course, before that, you'd better check to see if there are any little guys sneaking in with you."
"What about you? Little girl? "
"We have our work to do."
If the red ponytail's guess was right, their target this time should be the alien spaceship that had crashed on this planet. As for whether the owner of this space had other puzzles for them to complete after arriving there, that was another matter altogether.
"I hope you can go to the processing plant with us."
Hearing the red ponytail's answer, the soldier thought for a moment, then looked at the red ponytail. The latter shrugged and did not say anything else.
"Sure, up to you."
After saying this, the red ponytail returned to the back of the carriage. Apricot, Xiao Huan, and the others also came over.
"Xiao Hong, why are we going with them?"
Apricot was an impatient person to begin with. At this moment, she also opened her mouth to ask.
"Didn't you say we're going to find that alien spaceship? Let's just go. What's the point of wasting time with them? "
However, the red ponytail looked at Apricot and shook her head.
"Have you played games before?"
"Yes, I have."
"When an NPC gives you a mission, do you accept it?"
"Of course I accept it, but this …"
"I suspect this might be a hidden condition."
The red ponytail pointed at the soldiers in front of them.
"To put it simply, if we can protect them and solve the problem safely, then we might get more rewards and clues when we arrive at the alien spaceship. But if we leave directly, that might not be the case. Anyway, we are not in a hurry. Why don't we follow them and see what happens?"
"Well, since you put it that way … I have no objections."
After listening to the red ponytail's words, the other four magical girls thought for a moment, then nodded.
The magical girls whispered to each other in the back, while Ripley and the soldiers in front were also discussing in a low voice.
"Do you know who they are? These girls don't look normal. "
"They don't look like people from the Colonies, nor do they look like people from the Company. I don't know where they're from. But they seem to know that monster very well, even better than you do. "
As he spoke, the soldier turned to Ripley. The latter frowned.
"So … you mean they're aliens?"
"That's hard to say. Anyway, these girls are really strange … Stay alert and be careful. Let's finish the mission first."
