Chapter 1223. See you again, the man in the cocoon!
"Need building materials?"
At the Royal Headquarters, Elizabeth looked at the contents of the emergency contact document that had just been delivered to her, wondering if she had read it wrongly.
This is the royal headquarters. Yang Sikang’s emergency contact was actually to ask the royal family to send a batch of materials over?
Although the contents of the materials are nothing special and not difficult to obtain, but precisely because of this, isn't it better to get them directly from White Eagle?
You know, although the Bermuda Islands are royal territory, the closest place there is the White Eagle.
"Commander Yang seems to have taken away all the materials that White Eagle could immediately mobilize, so..."
"Took them all? And it's still not enough?"
Elizabeth frowned when she heard this:
"What is this guy doing? He can't have blown through Bermuda and is now trying to repair the island, right?"
Elizabeth said casually, but there are a lot of these materials in the royal family, so it is not impossible to transport them over.
She quickly approved the document and said to Belfast:
"Befa, you go and supervise this matter in person and send out the materials today. Remember, let our fleet escort the ship in person to show him our royal sincerity!"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
At the same time, Yang Sikang stood beside the cliff with a very ugly expression.
The rubble was cleared, and the loose soil caused by the bomb was temporarily dug out by the engineering team that he had urgently mobilized through his own connections. However, the more this happened, the more disheartened he became. The energy had penetrated far deeper into the archipelago than he had imagined. The energy on land had penetrated deep into the island, so much so that the previous explosion had blasted nearly a hundred meters below the island in one go.
Although it is not so uneven that the island has not been destroyed, it is not too bad.
The good news is that the edge of the island was not damaged at all, but the bad news is that the explosion area has now been dug into a deep pot in the sea.
"Yang, if we dig any further, the engineering team's equipment will hardly be of any use."
Hermann Stock, the businessman who rose to prominence a few years ago thanks to Yang Sikang's connections, looked at the construction site ahead and reluctantly informed Yang Sikang of the engineering team's feedback.
Yang Sikang patted his shoulder and said:
"Don't look like that, Hermann. You've done your best, but I never expected this place to turn out like this. Let the engineering team handle it as best as possible, and stop when it becomes a potential safety issue. I'll figure out the rest."
Yang Sikang didn't want to make things difficult for them. After all, with the level of the engineering team that White Eagle could mobilize, it was already very impressive to be able to achieve this level.
The rest can only be handled by more professional people, but...
Yang Sikang sighed helplessly. If he had known that such trouble would arise, he would have used ordinary explosives. Who could have known that such a thing would happen by such a coincidence.
That night, the engineering team that completed the work received a reward from Yang Sikang that was generous enough to make each of them lose their memories, and then left together and returned to White Eagle.
Yang Sikang himself came to the bottom of the big hole, and while continuing to detect with portable equipment, he marked the areas that needed priority treatment and the locations where risks existed on his personal terminal screen.
He now has no idea how long the surrounding coastal areas can withstand the erosion of sea water. Once this deep pot leaks, his plan will be ruined.
But just as he was racing against time to detect and record, the detector suddenly sent back a strange response.
"Hmm? Energy source?"
Yang Sikang frowned as he looked at the detection instrument. The instrument showed that there was a weak energy source about ten meters directly in front of him.
But he was now at the very edge of the area affected by the explosion. In front of him were solid and reliable rocks, and there were a large number of supporting structures on the edges. The ground above his head had not completely collapsed.
Ten meters ahead was inside the rock. Not to mention the problem of how there could be an energy source inside the rock, if he dug in, he couldn't even guarantee that the things above his head wouldn't collapse because of the digging. Once they collapsed, he wouldn't be able to dig himself out even if he was physically fit.
But the detection equipment would not lie to him, and Bai Ze's scanning results also showed that there was an unknown energy source in front of him.
Yang Sikang explored for a while and took a deep breath.
If he dug a small enough hole, he would be able to enter without affecting the strength of the superstructure, but the problem was that the size was only enough for him to enter while half-crouching.
But Yang Sikang did not hesitate. He found the equipment and started working right away!
The automatic equipment was very efficient in digging holes. Yang Sikang half-squatted while digging and moving the gravel to the back. Of course, this would make it very troublesome for him to get out later, but he didn't have the conditions to do a good job of the project.
After all, if the ship girls found out he was doing this, they would definitely stop him, no need to think about it.
The distance of ten meters is not very long, and Yang Sikang quickly dug nearby. As the tunnel boring machine suddenly rushed forward, Yang Sikang's eyes lit up.
"Is there really an undetectable hole?"
Yang Sikang's eyes lit up, but he soon became alert. However, he didn't dare to breathe too heavily here, as there was dust all around from the destruction of rocks.
After enlarging the hole a little, Yang Sikang simply squatted on the ground and pushed the boring machine in first, then squeezed himself in.
"This is... Why is this here?!"
Yang Sikang's pupils shrank and he looked at the thing in front of him in surprise.
It was a huge pure white cocoon with windows all around it. Fungus-like roots spread out everywhere, absorbing something from the surroundings as if it was breathing.
Those roots did not penetrate into the rocks and soil, as if the nutrients they needed existed in the air itself.
And inside this white cocoon, looking through the window, there was a familiar pure white woman that Yang Sikang had seen before.
She lay on her side in the cocoon as if she was asleep, her long hair draped beneath her body, her arms and legs slightly bent, like a fetus curled up in her mother's belly, and the white eyelashes on her delicate face trembled slightly.
The last time Yang Sikang saw this cocoon, it had devoured the power of the eggs and then disappeared. He never expected to see this thing here.
But before he had time to think about it, the woman inside woke up and slowly opened her eyes.
When the two looked at each other, Yang Sikang noticed something different.
The woman's eyes turned silver, and they became much more lively than the last time they were seen. Moreover, the pupils became very complicated. Looking closely, it felt like looking at a kaleidoscope, which made people want to stare at her unconsciously.
Yang Sikang never relaxed his vigilance and quickly looked away, but the woman floated up in the cocoon.
Her long hair fluttered behind her. She faced Yang Sikang and put one hand on the window.
Yang Sikang looked at her again, and this time, the corners of the woman's mouth twitched slightly, and then she raised a faint smile, and her eyes moved slightly, allowing people to clearly feel her joy.
"you know me?"
Yang Sikang muttered to himself, frowning slightly.
From a safety perspective, it would be best to ignore it, but Yang Sikang trusts his intuition.
He stretched out his hand, and just like last time, overlapped his hand with the woman's through the callus.
At the same time, the cocoon itself suddenly emitted a dazzling light. Yang Sikang subconsciously closed his eyes and covered it with his hands. The next second, the strong light suddenly disappeared!
Yang Sikang opened his eyes and found that the empty space in front of him was empty.
"What is this? And who is the white person inside?"
Before Yang Sikang could think more, the voice of the ship girl came from the passage behind him:
"Ah! There is a secret passage here! The commander must have discovered a secret treasure and went to look for it secretly by himself!!!"
