410. Initial Construction of the Island (2)
Ais felt they were too slow, so she silently closed her eyes and used her powerful mental energy to explore the deep sea.
A moment later, he opened his eyes and pointed to a point further away on the nautical chart.
“That place meets all your requirements.”
Everyone immediately focused their attention on the location Ais had pointed to.
After detailed discussions and surveys, a suitable sea area was finally identified.
With the location determined, the next step is preparation.
Each organization proceeded in an orderly manner according to its previous division of labor.
Sun Yiming led his team to clear any potential obstacles near the selected sea area and set up a temporary ship and material team.
The team responsible for building the framework then began collecting, classifying, and assembling various materials according to the preliminary design drawings provided by Gu Xi.
For a time, the Future became a temporary command center and material transfer station.
Flamescale wasn't idle either; it volunteered to take on the role of "cleaner."
The blue-purple flames moved nimbly through the water, burning away the seaweed and debris clinging to the rocks.
Occasionally, it might misjudge the heat and burn a rock until it's slightly blackened, drawing good-natured laughter from the workers nearby. It would then quip and argue back, making the scene quite lively.
Ais is very popular.
He used his ingenious freezing abilities to create ice tunnels, forming natural cargo conveyor belts.
Although he doesn't talk much, he is always precise and efficient in his actions, which makes everyone envious.
Seeing the bustling scene before him, Gu Xi was also filled with enthusiasm and helped out with the work, something he hadn't done in a long time.
The survivors may be weak or have their own shortcomings, but the cohesion and creativity they displayed in the face of a common goal were truly astonishing.
A few days later, everything was ready.
Gu Xi led Sun Yiming, Ai Si, Yan Lin, and several core organization leaders, riding on an ice ball made by Ai Si, carrying the Heart of the Island, and slowly descended to the designated seabed location.
This is a relatively flat sandy seabed, with no large obstacles except for some scattered peculiar coral reefs.
“This is it,” Ais said.
Gu Xi nodded, holding the Heart of the Island, preparing to place it on a cleared area that had been prepared beforehand.
All eyes were focused on the heart of the island, waiting for Gu Xi to "plant" it; the atmosphere was both tense and expectant.
Just as the heart of the island was about to touch the seawater—
"Buzz..."
A sudden, jarring sound wave emanated from the surrounding seawater!
The once calm seawater began to develop abnormal eddies.
Previously, because it was a shallow sea area, the people and fish had not conducted any mental probing, but they reflexively began to probe.
"What's going on?!" some of the slower-reacting people exclaimed.
"Whoosh! A bunch of trash are coming! So many!" Flame Scale's senses were equally sharp. It barked as if its fur had stood on end, and blue-purple flames instantly ignited.
Suddenly, many distorted shadows appeared in the once clear seawater.
These shadows quickly coalesced into a form that was clearly a group of strangely shaped deep-sea creatures! But judging from their appearance, they didn't really look like it.
They have no fixed shape, resembling clumps of murky silt or twisted aggregates of seaweed, with some broken shells and bone spurs faintly visible on their surface, emitting a nauseating fishy stench.
However, judging from the fluctuations in their mental energy, it is very weak. Perhaps it is precisely because they are weak that they are good at hiding?
In short, it's not impressive, but it's quite disgusting.
These bizarre creatures, without eyes, seemed to be attracted by the pure life energy emanating from the Heart of the Island, and surged madly toward the Heart of the Island!
"What the hell! It's garbage!" Sun Yiming suppressed his nausea. "The energy fluctuations of the Heart of the Island must be too strong, attracting all this deep-sea garbage here!"
These creatures are not strong in themselves, but they are numerous and fearless. Their attack methods are also extremely vile, and once you get entangled with them, it is very troublesome.
