Chapter 228: The Company

Wu Pifu did not truly see the owner of that mouth; even this mouth was sensed directly from the consciousness of the Man-Hunters through inexplicable super-brain induction.

It was just that this mouth gave him too strong a feeling, so it changed from a hazy induction to this intuitive image display.

Even so, Wu Pifu felt a very hazy but truly existing perception transmitted from beneath that giant mouth, as if trying to find the life that was "looking" at it.

It was almost by a hair's breadth that he was noticed by the owner of that mouth.

This was truly incredible.

Wu Pifu did not see this mouth directly; this was already similar to obtaining information through retelling and description. But even so, he was almost noticed.

This must be a great terror in the world below 0.3!

But... so what!?

Wu Pifu was no longer the one struggling in the dream world at the beginning. Since his martial arts progressed and his martial heart was established, he now possessed his own power.

Many persistence he originally couldn't carry out, he could now try to carry out.

Even if only for that sentence... his companions were laughing at his solitary survival!

Early the next morning, hundreds of people followed Wu Pifu to a place in the human territory. This place was not far from Tiaohai City, and the destination was not any building, but a natural cave. Not far from this cave, there was even a salt field.

"Speaking of which, this place is still some distance from the coast. Why is it called Tiaohai City?"

Wu Pifu asked others on the way.

Someone answered this question.

"This place was indeed the sea before the biochemical beast tide, but not the sea in the general sense. This place was originally called the Dead Sea."

Wu Pifu suddenly realized. He looked at the huge salt field; that was probably the trace left after the Dead Sea completely evaporated.

A strange feeling suddenly surged into his heart.

"Tiaohai City... Dead Sea... Dead Sea Scrolls?"

In Wu Pifu's memory, the Dead Sea Scrolls seemed to be a quite famous thing, but shouldn't that be fictional? His memory of the past was incomplete, piece by piece. He both felt that the Dead Sea Scrolls were fictional objects in some anime or manga, and felt that this seemed to be something that really happened in history, or a story in religious mythology. For a moment, he didn't know what the Dead Sea Scrolls were.

However, at this point in time in this world, the information left by the Azure organization stored here could truly change everything.

When Wu Pifu brought hundreds of people to the entrance of this cave, he stopped and did not immediately walk into the cave, and the others also stopped. Wu Pifu asked: "Have your arrangements been completed?"

The hundreds of people looked at each other, and then all showed bitter expressions.

One of them said: "Mr. Wu, if you hadn't asked us to accommodate children under six years old yesterday, we wouldn't have known that the number of children under six in the entire human territory was so small. Then we looked through the information once held by the three major guilds, and only then confirmed a fact: since about ten years ago, our human birth rate began to decline. It's just that at that time, the three major guilds were in power, and it wasn't obvious at first, but as time went on, the decline became greater and greater."

Canglang also said from the side: "From yesterday all night until now, we have sent out all the staff on hand, and found a total of 3,122 children under six years old. Counting those living in villages, towns, or the wild, perhaps the total number of children under six in all of humanity is less than 5,000."

"How many!?"

Wu Pifu was shocked. He widened his eyes and looked at the others: "Tens of millions of people, and fewer than 5,000 children under six!?"

The more than one hundred people present all showed bitter smiles.

This number was reported this morning, which was also why they didn't have any dissuasion along the way and all walked here wholeheartedly.

Not to mention that exploring the truth would trigger doomsday, just the current number of newborns in all of humanity was enough for them to make up their minds.

There was no need for other factors; just this birth rate alone could make humanity extinct in a few decades.

Wu Pifu also knew what this meant, so he asked again: "Have these children under six all been transferred? Also, what about other arrangements?"

Li Xianchun shook her head: "Actually, after knowing that the number of children under six was so small, we really didn't have any preparations. More than 3,000 children have all been transferred to the most solid shelter we could find. This is a nuclear defense project built before the war, located 300 meters underground. The entire project is cast entirely of alloy. Once closed, external force can almost not open it."

"However, please wait a moment, Mr. Wu. Besides the plane to carry you to Xia Weiyi not being ready, some arrangements also need time, such as distributing guns, ammunition, fresh water, food, and medical supplies to all the public. Currently, we have also opened all the shelters of the three major guilds. Anyway, it is to accommodate as many people as possible. Whether it can protect them through this doomsday really depends on God's will."

Wu Pifu nodded. He sat silently at the entrance of the cave, and the others were either standing or sitting, waiting silently for the final moment to arrive. At noon, a huge vehicle drove from afar. On the cargo body of this vehicle, a plane that looked full of sci-fi style was parked.

"Jian-100, a ninth-generation plane before the Third World War, is also the best flight vehicle we can find now."

Li Xianchun introduced this plane to Wu Pifu. She said: "This plane can take off and land vertically, and at the same time can fly out of the atmosphere, move outside the atmosphere, and then fly vertically into the atmosphere. In this way, it can avoid high-altitude biochemical beast attacks. According to estimates, this Jian-100 can safely fly Mr. Wu to Xia Weiyi from here within an hour... Actually, if it weren't for guarding against high-altitude biochemical beasts and needing to fly outside the atmosphere to move, it might not even take an hour."

After Wu Pifu saw this ninth-generation plane named Jian-100, he was also very interested. He circled the plane several times before asking: "But I don't know how to fly. Can this plane fly automatically?"

Li Xianchun said decisively again: "I can! Mr. Wu, please let me fly for you!"

The crowd present was indignant at this time, and everyone shouted.

"I'll fly, Mr. Wu!"

"Let me do it, I've flown a super-machine!"

"Let the old man do it!"

Wu Pifu looked at the crowd who were recommending themselves. He was silent for a long time before shaking his head: "No need. You can just teach it on the spot. I already have a pilot, and you... go back to your relatives and partners. Although it is said to be doomsday, and it is said that all humanity is facing extinction, who knows the result until the last moment?"

The crowd was silent. At this time, Li Xianchun still asked unwillingly: "But Mr. Wu has to deal with the upcoming decisive battle. Who will be your pilot?"

!

Wu Pifu pointed to the Samoyed at his feet and said: "She will help me fly."

"Huh?"

"Woof?"

The Samoyed pointed at herself with her dog paws. From that dog face, she actually showed the meaning of "Are you kidding me?". Not only the Samoyed, but the others also looked at the dog with their mouths wide open.

Wu Pifu said seriously: "You don't think she's really a dog, do you? Start teaching her how to fly this Jian-100 now, be quick."

"Woof woof?" Daphne barked immediately.

The crowd was also full of incredulity. They wanted to say something but stopped. Then they saw Wu Pifu walking into the cave step by step, while the crowd surrounded Daphne silently.

"Woof woof woof?"

Not to mention that Daphne began to bear the weight that a dog could not bear, Wu Pifu had already entered the cave at this time. He saw three metal storage boxes in the cave. They were not safes that required passwords, but boxes for better storage of data, documents, USB drives, and other things.

Wu Pifu looked at the three boxes arranged from outside to inside. He opened the outermost one and looked at the documents, dozens of photos, and a USB drive placed in the box. He first picked up the documents.

"... The investigation has begun. Although we made preparations early and completely cut off the offline, this is not safe. After all, if you have done it, you will leave traces. According to the think tank's estimate, it may be exposed within half a year at most. I hope the company can think of a solution as soon as possible."

"... The company has decided to launch the Great Flood Plan. Executive-level personnel, please immediately go to the company node in your area to evacuate. Repeat, the Third World War is about to break out. Please all executive-level personnel immediately go to the company node in your area to evacuate..."

"... The No. 8 Singularity Technology has been declared a failure..."

"... The No. 9 Singularity Technology has been declared a failure..."

"The No. 12 Singularity Technology has succeeded! The company has named it Chimera. Currently, I will serve as the leader of the Chimera research team!"

"... Damn it, the nuclear war did not break out! There is a hidden force helping the government manufacture a global decay device! This won't work. Once both sides cannot enter the extreme situation of mutually destructive war, our traces will inevitably be found by them. Now the investigation team is tracking closely, and we are about to be exposed!!"

"... The company's board of directors group has finished voting early this morning, nine votes in favor, one vote against, three abstentions!"

"The company has decided to launch the biochemical beast tide!"

"Cleanse this world thoroughly, wipe out all ignorant sorrow, destroy this sinful civilization and the mortal world. We... the company, will lead the human elite to the top. From now to the future, from human to god, we..."

"Singularity Company, will surely be eternal and immortal!!"
