Chapter 251 The Exploration Plan That Was Repeatedly Overturned

Rick's words silenced everyone present.

It's not that what he said was unreasonable; it's that what he said made perfect sense!

"It seems... that possibility does exist."

If that's the case, then the entire exploration plan would have to be overturned and reset.

For a moment, the entire lounge fell silent.

In the end, Liang He came up with a new idea.

"Perhaps we can combine the original plan."

According to Liang He, if what Rick said is true, it is because those creatures could not push the orca that the orca had the illusion that it was not pushed in.

They can now use this in reverse, making it even more advantageous when exploring strange sea areas.

"You mean, to use orcas as submarines?"

Huo An was the first to understand Liang He's thoughts.

After hearing what he said, everyone seemed to understand, but also hesitated.

"But orcas only listen to you, so wouldn't that mean you'd have to go into the water yourself?"

If possible, they would prefer to keep Liang He in a safer position.

They would be happy to be a "leader" who only talks and doesn't do anything.

"Not necessarily, there's another way."

Although Liang He didn't know why they didn't want her to go into the water, she respected their opinion.

Besides, this is Skalan Star, not Tianyao Star. As a guest, she should follow the host's lead.

"I see!"

Oko suddenly slapped his thigh, and because he was so excited, his palm turned red.

Of course, the thighs weren't in much better shape either.

“Oko, speak properly, don’t scare people, the president is still here.”

Goring reminded Oko to be careful not to frighten the old man, Chairman Lucas.

However, he clearly underestimated Chairman Lucas, who didn't care at all about Oko's overreaction.

After all, Rick wasn't much better than Oko.

"Alright, stop teasing this old man."

Receiving an apologetic look from Oko, Chairman Lucas waved his hand dismissively.

“Oko, since you have a good idea, quickly share it with us.”

President Lucas genuinely wanted to know his solution.

Although he felt that Liang He must have thought of these things earlier than them, everyone was just having their minds wander under her guidance.

"Sorry, sorry, I got too excited just now."

Oko apologized profusely, scratching his head awkwardly, his wheat-colored cheeks flushed red, clearly embarrassed.

"What I'm trying to say is that perhaps we could choose a heavier submarine."

Since those creatures can't move an orca that weighs several tons, why don't they just find a submarine of the same weight?

However, his suggestion was rejected by Göring immediately.

"The submarines deployed within the protected area are all lightweight; it's simply impossible to obtain them without applying for military submarines from federal headquarters."

Submarines are not typically provided for protected areas. Skalan Star is granted special permission to have submarines because of its vast sea area, but they are not classified as military-grade.

Submarines are classified into large, medium and small, with small submarines, also known as pocket submarines or submersibles, being the most protected.

“Small submarines can only carry two to three people. The one that Lyra used before was already considered one of the larger submarines in the protected area.”

But compared to military submarines, it's just a newborn baby.

Rick was somewhat disappointed that the solution he had painstakingly come up with was rejected by Göring. However, from Göring's explanation, he realized that he had been being a bit unrealistic.

"If all else fails, I'll submit an application to my superiors, but it will take a long time."

Leila was probably one of the few people present who could legitimately apply to the federal government for a large submarine.

However, military submarines are not something that can be obtained easily, especially on the distant planet Skalan.

By the time the entire process is completed and a submarine is sent over, Skalan will likely have already fallen victim to the rebels' plot.

"We're pressed for time; how can we wait?"

Oko, feeling utterly defeated and dejected, hung his head low.

He just wants to rescue his brothers as soon as possible, why is it so difficult?

"It seems that Liang Heti's method is the only one we have left."

Golin was also very troubled, especially with Huo An here to keep watch. He was really afraid that something would happen to Liang He, and Huo An would fight him to the death!
"Actually, I have another idea."

Perhaps feeling sorry for her, Liang He thought for a moment and then offered another suggestion.

"If there is a way to tie the submarine and the killer whale together, it might also be possible to achieve the weight requirement."

It's like running with a load. Whether the orca carries the submarine or the submarine uses the orca's weight to keep itself still, the result is the same.

Upon hearing this, the eyes of everyone present lit up instantly.

They all focused their attention on Liang He, their eyes filled with undisguised surprise and admiration.

"That's right! Such a great idea, how come I didn't think of that before!"

Rick seemed to be pounding his chest in frustration.

"That's right, that's a great idea! This way, no matter who goes underwater, it's always safer to stay inside the submarine!"

As the acting district chief, Goring was more concerned about the lives of the living.

Especially with foreign players like Leila and Liang He, he can't afford to take responsibility if anything happens to either of them.

"Indeed, Liang He's proposed solution seems to be the optimal one."

Huo An hadn't expected Liang He to propose this plan; he had thought Liang He would want to go into the water herself to find out what was going on.

Whether it was out of a desire to save animals from being harmed or out of a rare curiosity.

"Okay! Let's do as Liang He says!"

Seeing that Hoan had no objections, Goring naturally agreed to the plan with a smile.

However, if Liang He wants the orca to help, she needs to communicate with the orca herself.

"I'll go find the orca chief now and ask them what they're willing to do. If they're not willing to help, then we'll think of other ways."

But based on Liang He's understanding of them, once they realize that something in the strange sea area might destroy the sea area they depend on for survival, they shouldn't stand idly by.

Just as Liang He had predicted, the orca grandmother nodded repeatedly in agreement after learning that humans wanted to explore the strange sea area and resolve the disaster she had mentioned.

"Waaah! Waaah!"

Grandma Orca did not let her tribe complete this arduous task; instead, she chose to take on the task herself.

In its heart, it is the patriarch of the orca clan, and thus bears a heavy responsibility.

As it grows older, it will eventually hand over the leadership to a younger and stronger orca, so it might as well continue to contribute its remaining energy.

"Eek... Eek..."

Listening to the sounds that rose and fell around Grandma Orca, Liang He could hear the sadness and reluctance hidden within them.

It was as if this was a battle with no return, and the orca grandmother, as the clan leader, was a brave warrior going to her death.

"Eek~ Eek!"

The orca grandmother was comforting them and telling them that she was not afraid of death and was willing to die for the future of orcas!

Deeply shocked, Liang He was speechless for a moment, unsure whether her suggestion was correct.

Should she really place such a heavy burden on an orca? What is the meaning of their existence as humans then?
