Wasteland Farming, Manual for Raising Human Cubs

Chapter 263 Awakening
After staying up all night, Yang Mei had just fallen asleep when she was awakened by the shrill alarm in the White Tower.

The S-level early warning broadcast began to be broadcast automatically, calling all personnel related to the deep-sea project to gather at the main control desk quickly.

Yang Mei had just arrived at the headquarters building a few days ago. Her position was promoted and the company gave her more authority. However, she only fully understood the content of this authority last night.

She is honored to have successfully developed a virus vaccine and has now been transferred to the most mysterious deep-sea project department at the headquarters.

The highest-level early warning broadcast made the already serious atmosphere in the headquarters building even more tense.

Yang Mei didn't have time to think about what was happening. She picked up her clothes in one hand and her work computer in the other, and rushed to the control console while putting on her clothes.

As soon as she entered, Pei Yankai and a group of other project veterans followed in.

Without even taking a seat, Pei Yankai immediately entered the password to start monitoring and recording, and received information transmitted from detection points in various areas outside the tower.

"What's wrong?" Yang Mei had just arrived and saw the flashing red light on the display screen. She tentatively asked the female researcher next to her.

The other party shook his head, frowned, and said only one sentence: "We are in big trouble."

Yang Mei thought, now that the biggest problem of the virus has been solved, could there be any bigger trouble?
"Marine creatures attack the White Tower?" Yang Mei looked at the fully armed security personnel running over from the door and tried again.

At this moment, the picture on the screen changed, and a huge whirlpool and a large cargo ship appeared in front of everyone.

Yang Mei remembered that cargo ship. It was the company's only large cargo ship, which traveled between the land and the headquarters' Baita Island twice a day.

At this moment, the huge cargo ship was like a piece of rag, being caught in the whirlpool and almost disintegrating.

Looking at the video time, this is what happened in the sea near the White Tower five minutes ago.

Seeing this vortex, the researchers did not react at all. They just quickly consulted the heads of their respective departments for information such as casualties, supplies, etc.

Half a minute later, Pei Yankai enlarged the real-time monitoring image of the flashing red light. All the busy researchers stopped at once, with an expression of disbelief in their eyes.

Yang Mei was also startled, and her hair stood on end. "This, this is the deep sea energy fluctuation monitoring!"

She stayed up late last night to read all the energy wave monitoring data in history. In the eighty years since humans have been able to monitor energy waves, this data has remained stable.

Occasionally there is a small increase, indicating that the deep-sea guy is eating.

But the energy wave data being transmitted now is rising steadily, and has exceeded ten times the previous highest band!
What does this represent?
There was a brief silence in front of the main control desk, and the densely flashing red light reflected on everyone's face.

Pei Yan opened his mouth in a hoarse voice: "He is awake."

"Why did he suddenly wake up? There was no sign before. What happened on that freighter?" Yang Mei asked with difficulty.

Someone else asked, "Do you want to go down and take a look?"

Pei Yankai nodded, and his subordinates immediately dispersed, some went to sea, some collected intelligence on the freighter.

In the blink of an eye, only one-third of the core researchers were left at the control console. They looked at each other, not knowing what to do next.

Because the person in charge of the deep-sea project had just made a work deployment report that "He will continue to sleep for at least a hundred years."

They had all been mentally prepared to put food into the deep sea every three days and to continue doing so for a full twenty years. Who could have thought that the guy would wake up just like that?

An unknown behemoth whose curled-up body is large enough to span two oceans in its sleeping state. If it wakes up and simply turns over, it will be a devastating disaster for any planet.

The virus that nearly wiped out humanity had just been dealt with, and it looked like the hard times were about to end. But the next second, God played a huge joke on everyone.

Pei Yankai's face was solemn, and the situation of other core members was not much better than his. They even ridiculously started checking the stockpile of incendiary bombs.

"It's useless." Pei Yankai said coldly.

"Now we need to confirm whether He has really awakened. If so, what is the reason for awakening? After checking each one, we will find a way to make Him continue to sleep."

"And that ship!" Pei Yan opened his eyes and stared at the cargo ship spinning in the vortex.

The ship was full of food they had prepared for Him, so he prayed that the guy just couldn't wait to eat early, not that he had actually woken up.

While everyone was waiting for news, Yang Mei arrived at the helicopter pad on the top of the building at some point.

This is the highest point of the building, with unobstructed views on all sides, and you can clearly see everything happening in this sea area.

The blue sea surface was sparkling, without a single flying bird, and there was not a single mutated marine creature above level C in the sea near the White Tower.

The freighter accident occurred in the deepest sea area west of the White Pagoda. Through the telescope, you can see the shrinking vortex.

The freighter did not sink into the whirlpool as the power had weakened a lot. The captain managed to drive the freighter out safely and was heading towards the shore dock under the guidance of the company's guide ship.

Pei Yankai ruled out the possibility of eating beforehand during his prayers.

That guy just woke up!

Yang Mei's breathing suddenly became heavier. An inexplicable desire in her body was surrounding her reason tightly. She even had the crazy idea of ​​communicating with Him face to face in person.

But at the same time, her pitiful rationality pulled her out of this crazy idea.

Pei Yankai once said that if that guy just moved his fingers, the planet beneath her feet might be destroyed.

After taking another look at the overly calm sea, Yang Mei hurried downstairs and came to the main control desk.

The people who went to investigate the freighter came back with news that the freighter had loaded the cargo and the residents who were coming to the island and left the port on time this morning.

When sailing to the deepest sea area, the escort team on the ship received news of stowaways, so they led the team to search the cargo hold. As expected, they found a group of stowaways. The two sides had a brief exchange of fire. One stowaway died on the spot, and two people, one big and one small, jumped into the sea and escaped. The rest were all arrested.

It sounds like there's nothing unusual.

"Wait a minute." Pei Yankai suddenly asked, "A big man and a small child jumped into the sea to escape? There was a child among the stowaways? How old was the child?"

The subordinate replied: "A child who looked about four or five years old. The visibility in the cabin was very poor at the time, so he didn't see clearly. He must have boarded the ship with the adults."

Hearing this, Yang Mei and Pei Yankai looked at each other quickly and said in shock at the same time: "N number!"

The researchers present knew all the details about No. N, and someone immediately questioned, "Wasn't it dealt with by incendiary bombs? How could it still appear?"

"And if it was No. N, how could it possibly come back? Isn't that just walking into a trap?"

Pei Yankai and Yang Mei were also very puzzled.

But looking at the ever-soaring energy wave data, everyone could only put aside this doubt for the time being and find a way to solve the upcoming huge crisis.
