Gu Xi stood on the deck of the Future, her gaze sweeping over the excited faces. She used her mental power to transmit a message to everyone:
"The island has taken initial shape, but this is only a foundation. We need to reinforce it, improve it, and make it our true sanctuary!"
She pointed to the newly formed land below, "Now, according to the previous groups, let's begin! The first step is to upgrade the island and carry out initial construction!"
Once the order was given, the various teams, which were already fully prepared, immediately sprang into action.
However, the ideal was far from reality. The enthusiasm for construction soon encountered its first problem—transportation.
Although large quantities of materials have been prepared, transporting them to the unique space in the Heart of the Island for upgrades is a major problem.
The process of listing items in a store is cumbersome, inconvenient, and unsafe.
Although there were various backpacks, the space was limited, so everyone had to move back and forth between the ship's storage boxes and the space area in the heart of the island.
To speed up construction, materials are now being transported not only by backpacks but also by manpower.
However, how to efficiently and safely transport those heavy building materials, such as deep-sea iron and giant coral skeletons, from the ship to the island became a major problem.
"Damn it, this thing is so heavy! If we keep carrying it back and forth, when will we ever be able to pile up the foundation materials?" A burly man in charge of moving the materials complained, sweating profusely, while looking at a huge metal ingot.
"Still looking for Ais? To have him build a few more ice tracks? But I don't even dare to talk to him."
"How about we try getting a small trailer? But I might be able to move things better than a small trailer."
Not only transportation, but coordination and management also quickly revealed problems.
A dozen organizations and hundreds of people started work at the same time. Although they had the same goal, their work habits and communication methods differed.
Sometimes Team A's material quantity didn't match up, and sometimes Team B thought they should put the materials in a certain area first and then take them all at once later, but Team C ended up taking them away.
For a time, the island was bustling with noise, with shouts of workers mixed with arguments and complaints.
"Hey! I'm talking to you guys! We put this batch of Abyssal Demon Vines here ourselves. Who told you to move them? The numbers don't match up when we were counting them!"
"What's wrong with moving? You'll have less work to do there. Instead of thanking us, you're complaining."
"We claimed this land first, why should we let you set up some kind of material transfer station?"
Inside the temporary command center of the Future, the communicators were practically exploding with reports and requests for help.
Sun Yiming rolled up his sleeves and shouted himself hoarse, trying to mediate the conflict between the parties, but with little effect.
The representative sent by Li Ruoyang frowned, gesturing on a simple map as he tried to sort out the chaotic situation.
Gu Xi stood on the observation deck, quietly looking down at the construction site below, which was both vibrant and somewhat chaotic.
Instead of immediately engaging in the argument, she quickly analyzed the root of the problem.
