Chapter 1179: Choosing Not to Go Public
Hovering above the imperial capital, Xiao Tian and Su Yu gazed silently down at the bustling city below.
Humanity on Blue Star had crafted a civilization of unparalleled brilliance, but this civilization was on the brink of destruction. As members of this civilization, they were devastated by the impending loss.
While the civilization might leave behind a spark for future generations, it was uncertain how much of it could be restored. Most languages and written records would likely be lost.
Xiao Tian stared at the city, lost in thought.
After a few seconds, she used her psychic abilities to ask Su Yu, “Counter, we need to bring a sixth or seventh-tier powerhouse to Dragon Island. Who do you think would be the best choice?”
“Hmm…” Su Yu was taken aback, falling into deep thought.
Choosing the right candidate was no easy task.
This person needed to have a strong sense of responsibility and a historical mission. They needed to have the mental fortitude to remain calm and rational in the face of potential future crises. Who would be the best fit?
One by one, the figures of sixth and seventh-tier powerhouses flashed through Su Yu's mind. He listed everyone he could think of, comparing them to find the most suitable candidate.
But before he could think much longer, Xiao Tian used her psychic abilities again, “There’s one more thing. Do we really want to let others know about this?”
“Hmm? What do you mean?” Su Yu was taken aback once more.
“I’ve been thinking about this ever since we came back,” Xiao Tian turned to him, her expression calm. “If everyone knows about this, the selection process will become incredibly complicated.
Everyone will do everything in their power to secure a spot for themselves or their children, just like last time.”
“I see… That’s bound to happen,” Su Yu nodded, sighing softly.
The last “Spark Plan” had seen similar issues.
Led by the United Government with Zhong Feng and Old Meng as the main coordinators, Su Yu had not been heavily involved. However, he had heard about many powerful figures or those with influence fighting fiercely to secure spots for their children, often leading to bitter conflicts.
The “Spark Plan” had 200 spots for children, and from what Su Yu knew, at least two-thirds of those children were offspring of high-tier powerhouses or influential figures. Very few were from ordinary families, and only those with the most exceptional talents made the cut.
If this selection process were made public, it would undoubtedly repeat the same mistakes, and this time it would be even worse.
The last “Spark Plan” involved sending people to outer space to survive, and the chances of survival were slim.
But this time was different.
This “Ark Plan” involved sending the children to Dragon Island, where they would definitely survive!
Without a doubt, once the information was made public, every parent whose child had a chance would fight tooth and nail for a spot, a thought that made Su Yu’s head ache.
“Xiao Tian, what you’re saying is…”
“Why don’t we keep it secret?” Xiao Tian turned to Su Yu, a rare smile on her face. “We won’t make this public. Only the two of us will know.
As for the 200 children, we’ll personally select some smart, lively, and talented kids, ensuring they aren’t influenced by anyone or any power.”
“Personally select them…”
By this point, Su Yu was already feeling inclined.
Instead of dealing with the headache of the selection process, it would be better to decide everything internally.
At the very least, for humanity, an internal decision would be better than selecting a batch of children from the privileged class.
“Smart, lively, and talented…” Su Yu repeated Xiao Tian’s words, reaching out to ruffle her hair, a hint of regret in his voice. “Xiao Tian, you’re also a child, and you fit that description perfectly… But you’re eighth-tier. Otherwise, you’d definitely have a spot on this trip to Dragon Island.”
