Chapter 311: Chapter 195: New Member

In the Edge of the World Pavilion in Qionghua City, a group of people sat around a table in Conference Room No. 9, where a projection screen in front of them was playing a peculiar video.

It was footage shot from high above, and the image was so clear that it made the terrestrial viewers feel it was clearer than any high-definition camera they had ever seen.

However, this wasn’t the main point; the key was the content of the video.

Above the boundless ocean, at the farthest point in the camera’s lens, a landmass, too vast to see its edges, was slowly emerging.

Accompanied by textual annotations on the side, this landmass was none other than the mysterious island that had suddenly appeared in the center of the Pacific Ocean only a bit more than a month ago—Rebirth Island.

"My God! How is this possible... How could there really be such an island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean!?"

At the conference table, several new recruits attending the job interview had their eyes wide open, their faces replaced by expressions of disbelief and shock.

"No, this might just be a regular aerial video, that island can’t really be that place..."

Someone still couldn’t believe what they were seeing and mumbled to themselves, trying to rationalize and find a plausible explanation.

However, they knew that it must be real; after all, if an aerial video of this level had appeared before, it would not have remained unnoticed on the internet. They would have certainly seen it through other channels.

Moreover, as the full view of the approaching island became clearer, they started to notice some unusual features of the island; it looked like a barren planet that had just birthed life.

The trees, as inconspicuous as pearls scattered on a beach, were nonetheless brimming with vitality.

There were no lush forests to be seen, only semi-grown trees in the midst of growth, everything appearing as tender as the beginning of life itself.

Evidently, this video was taken by an anti-gravity car as it passed by the edge of Rebirth Island. The perspective was from the bottom of the car, obtained by Yang Yangyang and the others from Zhang Xiaoman, to facilitate their future recruitment work.

At the conference table sat five prospective new employees, the last of whom was naturally Xiang Yu, who had rushed over after recently receiving a phone call.

Xiang Yu had already signed a non-disclosure agreement by then and knew that his future workplace would be on that vast island at the center of the Pacific Ocean.

At first, like the others, he was skeptical amidst his shock and wasn’t too willing to believe what they were saying.

But later on, after hearing the other party’s explanations, he found himself wavering.

For one thing, he could not fathom why the prestigious Snow Crystal Group would play such a joke on a new graduate like himself; it had no benefit for them and was entirely unecessary.

Secondly, he was personally very fond of mysterious and strange tales. He vaguely remembered seeing something about a newly emerged island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean on the internet.

It was apparently disclosed by an overseas explorer and photography enthusiast who had come across such a place, but the post was deleted shortly after it was published, and the topic was never brought up again.

All evidence pointed indirectly to one conclusion: this event was real, no matter how incredible it was; that was the truth of the matter.

Therefore, everyone had moved from initial suspicion to a state of indecision, which shifted to persuasion and trust after the video showed a massive lake.

The viewers saw that in the angle of the footage, calm waters of a seemingly endless lake suddenly rippled, followed by the appearance of half-transparent blue barriers materializing out of nowhere. On top of them, a circular gap abruptly opened.

Then, the person or flying vehicle filming this scene passed through it, revealing the true landscape behind.

The scene was similar to what was seen outside, but with one difference: a small island was perched above the lake.

Because of the field of view, the people couldn’t see all of Seven Star Island, only the outermost part.

The video abruptly ended there, clearly interrupted mid-way, which jolted the viewers still engrossed in the content, also inevitably leaving them with a sense of regret and longing.

Seeing the baffled expressions on the faces of the people in front of her, Yang Yangyang couldn’t help but smile. Wasn’t that similarly how she felt when she first saw the scenery of Rebirth Island?

Now, seeing others just like her, she suddenly felt a mix of nostalgia and amusement.

"Alright, the video has finished playing. I want to know, do you still have any questions about your future workplace?"

After allowing a brief time for everyone to reflect, she raised the actual matter for discussion.

The interviewees turned towards her, each one exhibiting a different reaction.

Shuai Yu and Xiang Yu, the youngest and most imaginative of the lot, were visibly filled with extreme excitement and longing.

They were utterly stunned by the scenes unfolded before their eyes and couldn’t help but believe the words they had been told.

While the rest were still somewhat hesitant, it was evident that they too were no longer as skeptical as before; they no longer rejected the fantastical sounding claims and were on the verge of being convinced.

"Excuse me, I’d like to know, is the small island in the lake we just saw the place where we are to work? And how exactly will we get there?"

The speaker was Liu Neng, who had been quiet for most of the time. Among them, he was the oldest and the most composed, an experienced construction worker.

"Yes, that is the base we have established there, and it is where all of you will be responsible for development and construction,"

Yang Yangyang answered his question, then, seeing a few others hesitant to speak up, preemptively added:

"As for the blue lights and other details about the base that appeared at the end of the footage, I must apologize for not being able to disclose more. Once you have signed the official contracts, everything will be made clear."
