After being fed to top-tier orcs, I became the darling of the entire intergalactic world.

Chapter 364 The White Whale That Wouldn't Let Me Leave
After playing all day, Liang He didn't forget that she still had important things to do. After dinner, she pulled Liang Jia along to upload the research data on the black wizard.

After finishing work and washing up, around 11 o'clock, I would promptly go to sleep with my furry little ones.

"Hmm... Stop making noise, go to sleep quietly."

In her sleep, Liang He vaguely heard a series of urgent cries. She subconsciously thought it was some furry creature being naughty, so she reached out and patted them, as if to soothe a child.

However, such reassurances did not seem to work, and Lianghe could still hear the calls coming from near and far.

"Dong dong dong."

Finally, just as Liang He opened her eyes and realized that the furry creatures hadn't caused any trouble and the sounds weren't coming from them, there was a rapid knocking on her door.

Liang He frowned, yawned, and sleepily put on a coat before opening the door.

"Liang He, something seems to have happened."

It was Leila who knocked on the door. It was so late, so she was the only one who could come and call Liang He.

She stood at the doorway, looking somewhat anxious, and quickly recounted to Liang He what her subordinate had just reported.

"When the Federation troops were on patrol, they found a beluga whale circling the Explorer and calling out. At first, they thought it wanted food..."

Everyone knew that Liang He fed the beluga whale fish during the day, so they subconsciously assumed that the beluga whale's calls in the middle of the night were also because it wanted to eat.

But when they threw fish to the beluga whale, the whale didn't even open its mouth, shaking its head and refusing to be fed.

"The beluga whale kept calling, but we really didn't know what it was trying to say, so we had no choice but to come to you."

However, everyone had a general idea: beluga whales are very intelligent, and if they try to attract human attention but not for food, it can only mean that they are calling for help.

Liang He, who had also thought of this, quickly regained her senses and hurriedly told Meng Ji Xuebao and the others to stay in the room and not to run around. Then she followed Leila to find the white whale.

"When I was going to sleep, I thought it was Cyril and the others causing trouble by not sleeping. I didn't realize it was the sound of a beluga whale."

If it had been discovered earlier, Liang He would have appeared sooner. Now, it sounds like the beluga whale has been calling for quite some time.

Feeling inexplicably guilty, Liang He quickened her pace, wishing she could rush to the beluga whale's side and soothe its wounded heart.

“At first we didn’t pay much attention, after all, there are orcas around, and we’re used to it.”

Since the Explorer set sail, the orcas, whose home was blocked, have become like leeches to Liang He, following him everywhere and incidentally acting as his bodyguards at sea.

After all, they are the overlords of the ocean and street thugs, and no one dares to mess with them. The underwater tunnel during the daytime was also thanks to their help, otherwise it would have messed up during the live broadcast.

"Logically, if the beluga whale is making such a racket, the orca should stop it, but it may have seen that you fed the beluga whale during the day, so it let it continue to approach."

Both orcas and beluga whales are intelligent, and they should be able to communicate with each other quite well.

Moreover, the beluga whale seemed to have an emergency, and out of empathy, the orca wouldn't stop it.

"Never mind all that for now, I'll go find out first."

Liang He and Laila quickly walked to the first deck, where a group of people were gathered, presumably attracted by the beluga whale.

"Colonel!"

Upon seeing Leila, these people immediately straightened their backs and made way without looking at her.

Once they reached the railing, looking out at the white whale emerging from the deep sea, Liang He called out to it.

"Little beluga whale, are you looking for me?"

The beluga whale, which had been engrossed in the mechanical sounds and even tried to block the massive Explorer with its small body, emerged from the water the moment it heard Liang He's voice. Its soft, large head looked at Liang He, as if confirming her identity.

"Ah-ah!"

After recognizing Liang He, the beluga whale started shaking its head again, but this time it was nodding, not shaking its head.

Those watching from the sidelines, even those who had witnessed Liang He's seamless communication with animals before, were still inevitably amazed by this scene.

"They really are here to see Ms. Liang He. This beluga whale is too smart, isn't it?"

"That's right. It also knows that when it encounters difficulties, it's most effective to seek help from Ms. Liang He. Hehe, Ms. Liang He's reputation has even spread to the marine animal kingdom."

"But it looks really anxious. What happened? Could it be that another strange sea area has appeared?"

"Pah! Can't you say something auspicious? Or you'll get beaten up!"

The surrounding noise prevented Liang He from receiving the information transmitted by the white whale in time, causing her to frown slightly.

Laila, who noticed it immediately, gave them a sharp look, telling them to shut up.

After calming down, Liang He listened to the beluga whale's voice again. This time, her brows not only didn't relax, but they furrowed even more.

"Liang He, how are you?"

Leila only spoke softly after Liang He slowly straightened up from his bent-over listening posture.

She mainly wanted to see if there was anything she could do to help.

"The beluga whale said its companion was sick and wanted me to come and take a look."

Of course, there can't be just one beluga whale; they usually travel in groups. This particular beluga whale was forcibly brought to the vicinity of the underwater passage by an orca and forced to visit humans.

It ate and drank at Liang He's place, and after it was full, it returned to the beluga whale team. However, it unexpectedly discovered that its companion was sick, so it hurriedly sought Liang He's help.

“It’s not uncommon for beluga whales to ask humans for help. If I hadn’t interacted with it during the day, it might have asked other people for help too.”

It was simply because of their daytime acquaintance that the beluga whale trusted her more.

The fact that the orca clan was with her made the beluga whale think she was very powerful and would definitely be able to help it rescue its companions.

"But the Explorer's route is fixed, and we cannot easily change it."

This is not something that one person can decide; there are reasons from all sides, and even Göring could not make this decision.

Laila was at a loss, unsure how to help the white whale.

“It’s alright. Send a small boat and wake up your poisonous friend. He and I will follow the white whale.”

If they need medical attention, the poison might still be somewhat effective. They'll go and come back quickly, so it won't delay the Explorer's journey.

"How can this be? It's the middle of the night, the most dangerous time at sea. I can't let you leave."

Liang He's suggestion was rejected. Even though she repeatedly assured that she would be fine, the memory of being captured by the rebels after she pushed Laila out of the danger zone was still fresh in her mind and she couldn't let it go.

Even though she knew that Liang He had made preparations and deliberately allowed herself to be captured, Leila still felt extremely guilty.

"How about this, let's use submarines directly. If anything happens, they can hold out for a while."

Submarines can travel on the surface of the sea, but they can only dive to the seabed when they encounter danger on the surface.

A 360-degree, no-blind-spot security guarantee should put people at ease, right?
