Chapter 107: Parachuting? Airdrop!

Indeed, as an Archaeologist and Occultist, one is prone to courting death, or rather, being "forced" into dangerous situations. Despite players knowing certain actions are perilous, they are compelled by "professional ethics" to proceed regardless.

Thus, Liu Xing declared, “It's decided then. Ai Mei, you'll watch over Pei Si, as it's more convenient among women. I'll take care of Ji Wu. How does that sound?”

Ai Mei nodded in agreement, and no one else objected.

At that moment, between Liu Xing and Ji Wu in the cabin aisle, a virtual display screen suddenly erected, showing the topography of Sky Floating Island.

In simple terms, Sky Floating Island was divided into five regions. The east appeared to be a small town with about thirty buildings; the south was a forest with a circular clearing in its midst; the west featured deserts interspersed with oases; the north was a range of mountains covered with heavy snow; and at the center lay a circular lake dotted with hundreds of islands. The island at the very center of the lake seemed to host a large statue.

However, due to clarity issues, Liu Xing couldn't discern the statue's details but speculated it might be of Nyarlathotep, as this was its territory, unlikely to host another Eldritch God's statue.

“Hmm, looks like this is the map of Sky Floating Island. Let's decide where to head first. Personally, I suggest the town in the east, as it seems the safest,” Liu Xing suggested.

Liu Xing felt the central lake was undoubtedly the most dangerous area. For the players, even with swimming and diving skills, moving in water was not easy, especially since firearms were less effective underwater in terms of damage and accuracy.

Liu Xing also noticed some islands with buildings but no docks or boats nearby, hinting at the probable presence of numerous Deep Ones in the lake. Hence, heading straight for the lake was tantamount to seeking one's own death.

As soon as KP Luo Luo finished, a red dot appeared on the virtual display, located in the eastern part of the town area—a grassland, perfect for parachuting.

Thus, Liu Xing and the six players simultaneously nodded and pressed the red button on their right.

The moment they pressed the button, a trio of iron plates fell onto Liu Xing's head, trapping him in a Sealed Compartment. Suddenly feeling weightless, Liu Xing experienced an intense bout of nausea, nearly vomiting.

Liu Xing realized he was enclosed in an Airdrop Pod, dropped directly from the Transport Plane...

Overwhelmed by severe dizziness and not knowing how much time had passed, Liu Xing finally heard a loud bang. His seatbelt automatically loosened, indicating a successful landing.

Taking a deep breath and resting for a minute, Liu Xing calmed his turbulent stomach and shaky brain.

"It seems everyone has successfully landed. Now, players can press the red button again to exit the Airdrop Pod," KP Luo Luo said with a smile.

"Wasn't it supposed to be a parachute jump? How did it suddenly turn into an airdrop? Luckily, the Airdrop Pod's shock absorption is good; otherwise, I'd be lucky to see if I'd survive a crash," Liu Xing complained while pressing the red button.
