Although a decision has been made, now is not the best time to release the information.
Gu Xi stared intently at the constantly refreshing screen, her mind racing like a high-speed engine, frantically weighing all the possibilities.
The heart of an island can create miracles, but seizing the right moment is equally crucial.
Humans have not yet gained sufficient influence among deep-sea species, and hastily implementing plans could exacerbate conflicts.
Moreover, she needs more people to participate in the island's development. Once it begins, there is no room for error, as any conflict could trigger a chain reaction, affecting the overall situation.
The campaign to exterminate the Bone Clan brought together leaders of various organizations, providing an excellent channel for information to be leaked.
She plans to observe the reactions of various organizations before making any further plans.
Gu Xi switched to the corresponding chat channel and sent a message.
Gu Xi: "Everyone, I have an item called the Heart of the Island, which can be used to build an island, but it requires a lot of materials. I would like to hear your opinions on this matter."
The chat window was quickly filled with messages as soon as the message was sent.
"The Heart of the Island? So the person who received the only item in the system notification was Sister Xi!"
"This is actually an island-building tool! I never expected that!"
"Sister Xi, with this tool, why are you still drifting at sea? Wouldn't it be better to build an island in shallow water and stay there by yourself? Why give up a peaceful life? What are you after?"
"Even if such a thing existed, how many people could an island accommodate? Our population base is quite large."
"What will the deep-sea species think? Will they agree? Will they think we're taking over their territory?"
Gu Xi replied calmly and quickly.
Gu Xi: "This is not a simple decision, but building an island with the heart of an island can create a living space for mankind."
"The problem of excessive population density remains unresolved. It's a dead end; what good will building an island do?"
"The relationships between the various organizations are currently delicate, and if they're all squeezed together, there will only be more conflicts. It would be strange if they didn't start fighting!"
Gu Xi paused for a moment as she looked at the message.
She understood the other party's concerns, but she needed a clear response right now.
If many people don't participate, she can only act in her own way.
Gu Xi: "So, how many people are willing to join in the island's development?"
After a brief silence in the messaging channel, a variety of responses followed.
"To be honest, life on the ship is pretty good right now. Didn't the system say this is our safe haven? I think it's fine. Why take the risk? Aren't we tired of a stable life?"
“Building an island would definitely require a lot of materials, it’s too much trouble, I don’t want to go through all that trouble.”
"I want to give it a try. Drifting at sea is not a long-term solution. I still prefer the feeling of having my feet on the ground."
“Our organization is willing to participate, and we will provide materials as much as possible.”
As Gu Xi looked at the differing opinions, her gaze grew even more resolute. She had anticipated this outcome, but it would not shake her determination.
Gu Xi: "Since that's the case, I won't force you. For organizations that are willing to participate, I'll create a new channel and post progress updates in real time. Those who aren't willing are fine too; everyone has the freedom to choose. But this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity; once it's gone, it's gone forever!"
"That's fine, it saves us from having to force ourselves. Anyway, I don't want to get involved."
"Let's organize the registration! For our new home, let's go!"
"We're joining in. Let's build our future together!"
Gu Xi looked at the screen, a slight smile playing on her lips. Although she hadn't been able to convince everyone, the result was enough.
With the first group of participants, subsequent steps can be taken step by step.
As for those who are still observing, it will be difficult to join once the island is completed.
However, building an island is not something that can be done overnight, so there is no rush to announce the news to the world channel.
Moreover, the Mercury survivors are about to be deployed, and she can make a decision based on the new situation.
