During this period of free time, Hao Qi and the others had held discussions, followed by several meetings with the small council of the Refuge. Given the might of Hao Qi's Super Internal Energy, the anticipation surrounding the large Super Mecha, the successive awakening of the Ryodan members, and most importantly, Hao Qi's means of thoroughly killing these monsters, the result of the council discussions was that a combat plan could proceed... an operation targeting the two Peak Storm-rank entities.
However, Hao Qi's other proposal was met with skepticism: the idea of leaving the Refuge to flee to another ocean. Only a small minority supported it, and even Li Xiu and others, whom Hao Qi had first encountered, raised questions.
First was the issue of Primordial Era conventions. Under any circumstances, the human government would dispatch rescue personnel; this was evident from the historical actions of the government. If they failed to send rescue even once, once exposed, not only would the current human government collapse, but it would also implicate their political party and numerous officials—it could be said to trigger a major political earthquake for the government. Therefore, a small fraction of people still firmly believed that the human government would send a rescue force, and that as long as they held the Refuge desperately, they were bound to be saved. The number of people proposing this was not large.
