Chapter 1604 Cloud and Mist
The portal opened, and Blaze stepped in. What he saw was not the scenery unique to the floating island, but a mist.

This is the cloud.

Even though the floating island and the sky giant nation have been open to the world, the operating mode that the floating island has maintained since its birth cannot be changed, and it is always moving deep in the clouds.

Fortunately, having his vision blocked was not a problem for Blaze. He closed his eyes, and the surroundings became clear as his vision entered darkness, and part of the floating island appeared in front of him.

Although there are signs of processing around, it still retains a fairly primitive style of piled-up stones. This should be a deliberate arrangement by [Hermes' Traveling Hat] so that the culture of the sky giants can always maintain its original feel.

Just a few steps away is the inn built by [Hermes' Travel Hat] on the floating island. You can go there for help if you have any problems.

Although Blaze had learned a lot about the floating island from Hebina, he still decided to conduct a field trip first to make sure that the information was correct.

The staff of the Floating Island Station just happened to be on shift, and they were working very hard. Due to the special situation of the Floating Island, the employees of the station also had to pay attention to the [Doomsday Number], so they were working in 24-hour shifts.

Work a full day and then switch at zero o'clock.

Blazer saw an employee staggering and immediately reached out to support him.

"Mom... I'm so tired..."

"Ahem." Blaze coughed awkwardly. The employee was startled and stood up straight. After looking at the person in front of him clearly, he touched the back of his head awkwardly.

"Sorry, I'm a little too tired."

"I understand. It's okay. You should go to bed early." Blaze waved from the warehouse, took out a golden fruit from the sea of ​​golden apple trees and placed it in the hands of the tired employee.

In order to prevent employees from refusing, he said that it was arranged by President Herbie and that every employee had one.

After distributing the fruits, Blazer sighed helplessly. The situation of the employees was not very good. Working for 24 hours straight was too much of a burden.

The fruits of the Golden Apple Tree Sea have powerful vitality. Eating them can restore health points, but fatigue is not an abnormal state that can be offset.

Even someone as professional as Greenland will enter an energy-saving state after being active for more than ten hours - that is, the consciousness is blurred, but the body is still active.

Blazer believed that Herbie must have given appropriate compensation and training, and it would be inappropriate for him to interfere and give comments.

He sat in the floating island inn for a while, waiting for the employees in the inn to complete the handover. He didn't know if it was his illusion, but the sea of ​​clouds seemed to invade the inn.

Because there was no sunshine, the clouds made the entire station look very gloomy and sleepy.

"Is it due to the environment?" Blaze waved his hands vigorously, trying to disperse the uncomfortable fog. Unfortunately, the fog was like a dog-skin plaster. Even if it was waved away, it would come back soon.

A female employee saw Blaze waving and immediately came over to explain.

"There's no way to dispel this fog, haa ...

The female employee had just finished speaking when she yawned unexpectedly. She immediately covered her mouth and waved her hands at Blaze embarrassedly.

"Sorry, I yawned just after I got to work." "It's normal." Blaze waved his hand indifferently and began to understand the situation of the floating island.

As the nearest station to the teleportation point, it naturally has quite complete information about the floating island, ranging from the culture of the indigenous people to the ecological environment, which is almost the same as Hebina's.

But he was not wasting his time, as the intelligence from Hebina did not say that these employees were drowsy.

This could be a perfectly normal situation, but it could also be a sign that something unusual is about to happen.

Even if it's not a big deal, it means that the employees of [Hermes' Traveling Hat] were found to be unable to adapt to the work mode of one day on and one day off, and adjustments need to be made.

After Blaze took note of this, he bought a map and an atlas of the floating island's ecology and left the inn.

Judging from the map, the entire floating island is roughly in the shape of a huge disc. In addition to the central disc as the main island, there are also circles of rings surrounding it as subsidiary islands.

The central island is naturally where the sky giants live, and it is also the location of the temple dedicated to the [Remnants of the Sky].

Needless to say, the temple, or the place where the [Remnants of Heaven] are enshrined should be in the center of the entire floating island.

In addition to the sky giants, there is also the ecosystem of the floating island. The floating island is not a world in a special space, so the monsters living in it are not as special and extreme as those in the vertical abyss and the falling abyss.

But if it was just an ordinary ecosystem, it would not attract foreigners to explore, so [Hermes' Travel Hat] took the initiative to do business.

This world is very magical, and any region will produce a corresponding environmental ecology.

There are sea fish in the sea, and there are also flying fish in the sea of ​​clouds.

"Feather fish, thunder fish, wind speed fish, oh! There are quite a rich variety of species." Blaze widened his eyes with interest. These rare monsters that live in the clouds and are absolutely impossible to encounter under normal circumstances are appearing in large numbers on the floating island.

The reason is simple, just like birds are life in the sky, but they cannot fly infinitely and always need a place to rest. Even sky fish living in the sea of ​​clouds need a place to rest.

The island-country-level floating island is naturally a Feng Shui treasure land, gathering a large number of sky fish.

It is said that on the day when the sky fish lay eggs, there will be a very shocking scene of sky fish all over the sky. The scales of the sky fish will emit sunlight, making the entire floating island look like a huge gem sparkling with countless colors.

Unfortunately, this spawning day is called the "Disaster Day". Sky fish don't care about the "doomsday number". They just focus on spawning, and fish spawn in tens of thousands.

When the eggs hatch, it will be another disaster. The hungry young sky fish will attack everywhere. The carnivorous sky fish will hunt the livestock of the sky giants, which are already few in number, and the herbivorous sky fish will eat the vegetation. It will be a disaster anyway.

Therefore, every year during the breeding season of sky fishes, the sky giants would risk their lives falling from the floating islands to eradicate the eggs laid by the sky fishes on the cliffs.

The biggest advantage of opening the floating island to foreigners now is that there is a group of people who are not afraid of death to eradicate the eggs, and they don’t have to be paid.

"[Doomsday Number] Ah...it seems like everything revolves around this."
