At least a minute passed after Lin Chu sent the message, but no one in the group had replied.
Only the group's "little secretary" replied: "@Lin Chu, please take a look at the group rules first. This chat is pretty quiet most of the time. After all, many of the Island Lords are overseas and prefer seclusion. They don't like to be disturbed, and there are also practical issues like poor reception."
'Huh.'
Lin Chu could only give a wry smile.
'That does make sense.'
'What kind of person chooses to become an Island Lord, anyway?'
'The majority probably aren't the ambitious, highly-driven types looking to build an empire. They're more likely introverts who just want to find a quiet place to be by themselves, or with their families.'
"Oho, a new member! Welcome! Where'd you buy your island?"
A man with the screen name "Linhai Immortal" replied, saving the dead chat from complete embarrassment.
Lin Chu quickly replied: "Daber Island, Philippines, Palawan Province."
