Chapter 1 Welcome to Sky Island Paradise

"Brothers, let's get off work early today and play some Chenghai 3C in the evening?"

"Sure, I haven't played for a long time, let's ask Han Xing to join us."

In an office building in Xinyang City, two men are talking.

When Han Xing heard someone calling his name, he did not respond immediately, but continued to lower his head.

He was playing a pixel-style survival adventure game on his mobile phone, called "Sky Island Paradise", with fresh graphics and cheerful music.

The player is first born on a suspended block, and then expands the territory by exploring other floating blocks and searching for supplies.

But as he played, Han Xing discovered that this game was far more than it seemed.

When players explore, they will inadvertently trigger various side quests. These quests have different options, and each choice seems to determine the direction of the story.

These side quests are connected together to form a huge main line.

In addition to the rich side quests, the dialogues between the game characters are also very rich.

When talking with the protagonist, the true emotions inadvertently revealed by these game characters made Han Xing wonder if he was communicating with a normal person?

As the mission progresses, pieces of dusty history are unearthed...

All of this made Han Xing doubt for a while, is this really a pixel-style game of less than 100M? Han Xing was addicted to it.

At this moment, a prompt appeared on the phone screen.

[This game will be under maintenance in ten minutes, and the new version content will be released soon, so please stay tuned...]

Maintenance? Wasn't this game just launched for a few days? Han Xing was a little confused, but saw a muscular man appear beside him.

Cheng Jianyong patted Han Xing's shoulder, squinted his eyes and smiled: "Whose video are you watching? You didn't even hear me talking to you."

Han Xing put away his phone and said, "I heard it."

"I'm just wondering, this month's department performance has not yet reached the target, and Chen Ergou is now sitting in the office watching us every day, how dare you not work overtime?"

Cheng Jianyong chuckled and said proudly, "Overtime? Bullshit!"

"With such a small salary, you still want me to work hard for you every day? Even if a god comes today, I will still work the early shift!"

Cheng Jianyong said it with certainty, but Han Xing looked at him with suspicion.

Next to him, a man in a suit said with a smile: “Han Xing, don’t listen to this guy’s bragging.”

"This guy entered the graveyard of marriage right after graduation. Unlike us, one person's food feeds the whole family. If he doesn't work overtime, who will support his wife and children at home?"

The man who was speaking was called Shen Yun. He, Han Xing and Cheng Jianyong all graduated from the same university.

During their four years in college, they were assigned to the same dormitory. The three of them had similar interests and joined the same company after graduation. They were also Han Xing's only two friends.

Seeing Shen Yun ruining things, Cheng Jianyong felt a little embarrassed on his slightly weathered face and whispered, "Occasionally... one day, nothing happens..."

Seeing him like this, Han Xing and Shen Yun smiled at each other.

"Come to think of it, we haven't played games together for a long time." Han Xing said.

Shen Yun also showed a nostalgic look on his face, "Yeah, I really miss those days in college..."

Just then, a figure appeared behind the three of them.

"You miss school so much, why don't you go back to school?"

Hearing this voice, the three of them had a bad feeling in their hearts.

It’s the department manager, Chen Huaibo.

Privately, Han Xing and the others called him Chen Ergou. This guy was the boss's loyal lackey.

Chen Huaibo's face was dark as he asked, "What are you three discussing? You haven't even completed your sales target, and you're just thinking about playing games?"

"A few uneducated guys complain of being tired after being asked to work overtime for a few days. Are you spoiled girls?"

"Tell me, do you guys not want to do this anymore? If you don't want to do this, get out of here right away! Don't just sit here and do nothing."

"There are so many unemployed fresh graduates out there now. If you don't take the job, there are plenty of people who will! You guys need to be disciplined!"

Shen Yun took a step forward and said coldly, "Keep your mouth shut."

His voice was not loud, but it revealed unquestionable firmness.

The office suddenly became quiet. Several other employees cautiously poked their heads out, as if they couldn't believe that someone dared to confront Chen Huaibo head-on.

"What did you say?" Chen Huaibo's face was grim. "Believe it or not, I'm going to call the boss right now and ask you to pack up and get out immediately!"

Shen Yun was about to speak when Han Xing waved his hand to stop him.

Han Xing looked at Chen Huaibo, "Stop yelling, don't you just want to drive us away and bring in some of your relatives?"

"Chen Huaibo, you act as if no one knows about your little tricks." Han Xing said disdainfully.

"you……"

"What do you mean by 'you'? If you have the guts, go and tell the boss and see if he will fire us."

Han Xing is fearless because he knows that no matter how bad the department's performance is, they are the three who contribute the most.

Chen Huaibo was so angry that he was shaking all over. He didn't seem to have expected that the usually low-key Korean star would stand up and confront him.

He was just about to step forward and grab Han Xing's collar, but saw Cheng Jianyong suddenly standing in front of him.

"Chen Ergou, do you want to fight here?" Cheng Jianyong narrowed his eyes, his tone revealing a threat, and his tall figure gave people a great sense of intimidation.

Chen Huaibo retracted his outstretched hand and looked at the three people standing on the same front. His face looked so ugly that it seemed like water was about to drip out.

Han Xing pulled Cheng Jianyong from behind and was about to persuade him not to fight here, but before he could say anything, his vision suddenly went dark.

At this moment, a system prompt appeared in everyone's ears.

"The new version of the game has been updated. In three minutes, all humans on Blue Planet will be able to play this game."

"Game Tips: This is a world without land. There are countless islands of varying sizes floating in the sky. Opportunities and dangers are hidden in each island. But first, you must find a way to survive."

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

"Later, a piece of suspended land will be generated for all players. This is your core territory and the foundation for building a sky island in the future. Once it is destroyed, you will lose everything."

"You can control your territory to move forward in the air and come into contact with islands covered by clouds. Go up to explore and obtain supplies for survival. You can also occupy these islands and expand your territory."

"The island contains opportunities, but it may also be filled with terrible dangers. Each of you has only one chance to survive. The consequence of failure is death. Please choose carefully..."

"Vulnerable groups such as the elderly and children will be released to their relatives after one month of the game..."

"Well, welcome to Sky Island Paradise."

When Han Xing regained his sight, he found himself floating in the sky at an unknown height of tens of thousands of meters. Looking down, he saw nothing but empty space and no land at all.

Thousands of miles high in the sky, the breeze is blowing and the clouds are floating.

A huge fear filled my heart.

At this time, a personal panel appeared in front of Han Xing.

【Name: Han Xing】

[Race: Human]

[Occupation: None]

[Level: LV0]

[Strength: 3, Agility: 2, Spirit: 4, Stamina: 5]

[Skills: None]

[Talent: None]

Then, the system prompt came again.

"Please choose your career system as soon as possible."

"Currently, there are five major systems: Warrior, Mage, Clergy, Hunter, and Rogue. When players reach a certain level, they can complete their career advancement through career scrolls."

Han Xing was stunned for a moment, then the fear in his heart gradually disappeared and then turned into ecstasy.

You can actually choose a career!

Not only that, these five major professional systems are exactly the same as the game he played on his mobile phone! Although he has only played that mobile game for a few days, compared to others, Han Xing has a deeper understanding of these professions.

These five professions can be seen from their names. They are good at different things. Warriors are more inclined to close combat. After reaching a certain level, they can be transferred to swordsmen or berserkers. The advanced professions are swordsman and berserker...

The mage uses magic to manipulate elements and cause damage to the enemy. Later, he can change his job to become an elementalist and illusionist. The advanced job is elemental mentor and weaver...

The same is true for the other three professions, each of which has two job transfer directions and advancement paths.

If nothing unexpected happens, most people can only choose these ten professions.

"I played a hunter before, and now I should continue to choose a hunter to play to my strengths."

"And the most important thing is, when I was playing that mobile game, I heard a piece of news about the hidden hunter profession from the NPC's conversation..."

That hidden profession is called Wild Ranger!

If the early stages of the game remain the same as when he played it on his phone, then he can seize the opportunity and take this hidden profession first! Thinking of this, Han Xing had already made a decision. Just as he was about to choose the hunter profession, a solemn reminder sounded in his mind.

[It is detected that the player'Han Xing's fate is compatible with this world, and his personal talent, the God-level craftsman, has been activated. 】

[God-level craftsman (SSS level, hidden unique): You will never fail when making any item, and the chance of producing high-quality items is greatly increased. 】

Han Xing was stunned for a moment, then said in shock: "I am super???"
