John Logan, early Alien Covenant script from 2015:

The crew of the Covenant arrives at the Engineers' city

DAVID
“Just over ten years ago, Dr. Elizabeth Shaw and I arrived here – the only survivors of the research vessel Prometheus. The ship we traveled on, the ship you discovered, carried a bioweapon, a virus. The payload accidentally deployed when we were landing. In the confusion we lost control of the ship. Elizabeth – Dr. Shaw – died in the crash … And you see the result of the pathogen … Their entire civilization came to an end within a few days”.

DANIELS
“Days?”

DAVID
“Four days, to be exact”.

They’ve reached the top of the hill…

A stunning revelation beyond…

For they can now see the towers and streets of a massive CITY. Stark and dramatic mountains frame the DEAD, EMPTY METROPOLIS.
They stare in AWED SILENCE.

DAVID
“And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and the rider’s name was Death, and Hell followed with him…”

David’s face. Haunted by his memories.

A flash–

Ten years before–

The MASSIVE ENGINEER SHIP ARRIVING, hovering over the CITY …the BOMB DELIVERY BAYS OPEN–

/Image by Matt Hatton: 'It occurred to me that I hadn't posted any female Engineers from Covenant yet. This was actually the second piece I did, right after the Leonardo type dissection. We were investigating going in an anal-retentive Victorian style for the crosshatching but decided it would be prohibitive in terms of the time we had and amount to do. Hence the looser Rembrandt hatching!'/

Yet, this isn't a fact since it's based off of an early script?

If this is true, then that means David never experimented with Engineers.

Also, we have to remember that David is telling us this.  David is a compulsive liar, so that also has to be considered when reading these statements.  I could never trust David.  We can only guess as to what he is thinking most of the time in Alien: Covenant.

Thing is, with a city that big, and factoring in sewage systems and storm drainage systems...there may yet be survivors, as well as deposits of still semi-active Black Liquid... ;)

IN SPACE THERE IS NO WARNING
