Chapter 1 Dark Moon Cemetery

Darkmoon Valley, Darkmoon Cemetery.

Countless tombstones stood near a dilapidated church. At night, mournful wails echoed from the graves, while kobold assassins lurked in the shadows around the church.

This was the most famous place in Darkmoon Valley.

Because this was the first twenty-man team dungeon opened near Red Leaf Town. Its importance to the guilds of Red Leaf Town was self-evident. Compared to the previous six-man dungeons, this was the dungeon that each guild was most concerned about.

Team dungeons were different from party dungeons. Not only was the difficulty higher, but the equipment and items dropped were also better. Moreover, clearing a team dungeon was proof of a guild's strength. In addition, next to each team dungeon portal was a huge Hall of Fame, which recorded the names of the first clearing team and players for later players to admire.

Of course, in addition to the first clear, there was also a record for the shortest clear time, set at three hours. As long as a team surpassed the record, it could leave its name, but this record was not permanent, but temporary. As soon as another team had a shorter time, it would be replaced.

At this time, the entire Darkmoon Cemetery was crowded with people. In addition to the major guilds in Red Leaf Town, there were also many pickup groups preparing to challenge this team dungeon.

"Wow, as expected of the battle for the first clear of the team dungeon, this equipment is too gorgeous. Our pickup group is no match at all."

"That's for sure. Look how many times these guilds have farmed the level three and four small dungeons. Even the worst guild team is wearing seven or eight pieces of Bronze equipment. Look at the Martial Union over there, all of them are wearing Bronze equipment. Team leader Ironsword Mad Lion's equipment is the Wolf Fang Set that only drops from the level four dungeon Black Wolf Den."

"Ironsword Mad Lion's equipment is not bad among the low-tier guilds, but look over there. The equipment of Wind Walker, the vice leader of the elite team of the third-rate guild Crown of Paradise, is the Spirit Wind Set that only drops from the level four advanced dungeon Ghost Fort. That is the level four top-grade set for the Sorcerer. The others are also wearing a lot of set pieces that only drop from Ghost Fort."

The pickup group players looked at the equipment of the guild teams, counting them like treasures, envious and jealous, the saliva flowing from their mouths becoming more and more fierce as they spoke.

Those high-difficulty small dungeons could only be cleared by the guild elite teams. They, as independent players, could only envy and look up to them.

Just as everyone was marveling at the equipment of these guild elite teams, Assassin's Heart from the Assassin Alliance walked over with a team. This group of people had very uniform equipment. All twenty of them were wearing level four Bronze Sets. Among them, the two silver daggers around Assassin's Heart's waist were exceptionally dazzling.

"Damn, no way, those are the Twin Thorns that only drop from the final boss of the level four Hard Mode Ghost Fort." An assassin who was very obsessed with daggers exclaimed.

Immediately, the团长leaders and higher-ups of other guilds looked sideways.

The style and color were the same as the official data.

"The Assassin Alliance truly deserves to be a second-rate guild. Their strength is indeed not to be underestimated. They quietly cleared the Hard Mode Ghost Fort. We have only taken down the first Hard Mode Boss so far, and they have already cleared it," the vice leader of Crown of Paradise, Wind Walker, said with emotion.

"Hmph, so what if they cleared the Hard Mode? Everyone is still at the same starting point. The difficulty of a team dungeon is not comparable to a small dungeon. If you want to clear it, it depends more on the commander," Ironsword Mad Lion frowned, snorted coldly, and said disdainfully. He believed that his skills were no worse than Assassin's Heart's. If he hadn't been ambushed by that Night Blade, causing him to drop a level, the team he led might have already cleared the Hard Mode Ghost Fort.

"How interesting." Zhang Luowei, the leader of Shadowy, listened to the discussions of the other guilds and smiled slightly, as if he didn't take these people seriously at all, full of arrogance.

None of the guilds present were convinced by the others. After all, the game had just started, and no one knew what would happen later. The Assassin Alliance was just relying on its strong foundation from the start, but this first clear of the Darkmoon Cemetery wasn't something that could be obtained just by having a strong foundation. It just meant they had some advantages.

This first clear of the team dungeon could be said to be a reshuffle of the forces in Red Leaf Town. Whoever took the first clear, their prestige would be greatly increased in Red Leaf Town, and their development would be faster, especially among new players, with a huge impact.

Everyone looked at the time. There were still more than twenty minutes before the Darkmoon Cemetery opened, so they all stood quietly on the side and waited silently.

"Sister Qingxue, it's so lively here!" Xiao Yue'er挽着took Bai Qingxue's玉臂 jade arm, looked around, and smiled playfully.

Bai Qingxue nodded, looked around with a cold expression, like a millennium-old unmelted ice. She didn't pay attention to these guilds, but was looking for someone.

Although Bai Qingxue and the others walked to the front of the Darkmoon Cemetery dungeon gate in a low-key manner, everyone's eyes unconsciously shifted to Bai Qingxue and the others, including the higher-ups of various guilds.

Second-rate guilds still had the confidence to compete with each other, but first-rate guilds didn't have any extravagant hopes. This was mainly because the gap between second-rate guilds and first-rate guilds was too large, not only in the number of players, but more in the quality of players and the financial background.

Just Bai Qingxue standing here gave the higher-ups of many guilds a great sense of oppression, and the reason for this oppression, in addition to the gap between guilds, was mostly the gap in individual strength. As long as you played virtual games, no one didn't know the name of the Ice Snow Goddess. This wasn't just praising Bai Qingxue's beautiful face, but more her terrifying strength.

"As expected of the Ice Snow Goddess, this equipment is probably the top-tier equipment for players at this stage, right." Assassin's Heart looked at Bai Qingxue wearing a set of silver-red interwoven armor and secretly admired her.

This set of Flame Light Set was a set that only dropped from the level five Advanced dungeon Lava Mountain, a dungeon they hadn't cleared yet, and this set of Flame Light was a Xuan Iron grade set that only dropped from the Hard Mode...

This was much better than his equipment, not to mention the red Flame Spirit Sword in Bai Qingxue's hand, a level 5 Mithril grade two-handed sword, completely crushing his Xuan Iron grade Twin Thorns.

This set of equipment brought a great deal of pressure to many experts, coupled with Zhao Yueru and Xiao Yue'er's Xuan Iron grade equipment, it was simply a rhythm of碾压 crushing Darkmoon Cemetery. How could they compete?

"Why hasn't he come yet?" Bai Qingxue scanned around but didn't find Shi Feng's figure, and a hint of frost appeared on her face.

"Hahaha, Qingxue, he must know that he would be embarrassed if he came, so he doesn't dare to come. Why don't we call a few more people over?" Zhao Yueru straightened her傲人 proud double peaks and smiled smugly.

Bai Qingxue thought for a while. The first clear of Darkmoon Cemetery was very important. If Shi Feng really didn't come, then it was right to prepare in advance.

Just as Bai Qingxue was about to contact her subordinates, Shi Feng and the others rushed over.

"Sorry, I kept you waiting." Shi Feng scratched his head and said embarrassedly.

Although he was in a hurry, the distance was too far, and he encountered a level 5 Super Rare Elite on the way, so it took a little time...
