Chapter 1 The Decision

Bai Qingxue's words were final, leaving no room for argument.

After cooperating with Blackie, Bai Qingxue had sensed the importance of lifestyle professions. Although their impact on God's Domain wasn't significant yet, who could guarantee the future?

Therefore, she wouldn't let go of any lifestyle profession design drawings that dropped in dungeons.

With Bai Qingxue's approval, the members of Serpent's Kiss felt even more confident, looking at Shi Feng as if he were an idiot.

Now that the captain disagreed, let's see how you can still act cool, kid. If you have the guts, form your own team and go to Darkmoon Graveyard. That way, they could relax.

Shi Feng frowned slightly. He hadn't expected Bai Qingxue to be so resolute. He wondered what had happened to trigger her, making her completely different from their first meeting when there was room for negotiation.

Little did Shi Feng know, it was he himself who had triggered Bai Qingxue…

"How about this? What if we auction the lifestyle profession design drawings that drop within the team?" Shi Feng had to take a step back.

Hearing Shi Feng say this, Zhao Yueru covered her mouth and smiled lightly.

"Ye Feng, stop dreaming. Team dungeons only reset every three days. The design drawings inside are crucial for the guild's development. How could we auction them within the team? If that's the case, we'll just call a few more elite members over. Then, Darkmoon Graveyard will be entirely ours, and we won't have to share with you," Zhao Yueru said, her tone turning cold.

Zhao Yueru had made it clear: if you stay, don't even think about the design drawings. Otherwise, leave on your own. We won't stop you.

Bai Qingxue didn't stop Zhao Yueru, indicating that she agreed with Zhao Yueru's point of view.

"Miss Zhao, don't be angry. Feng-ge (big brother Feng) doesn't know how important the design drawings are to you. I apologize to you," Blackie couldn't stand it anymore. If things continued like this, the final result would be a complete breakdown. He had finally latched onto a goddess, giving the workshop a chance for further development. It couldn't end like this.

Blackie kept signaling Shi Feng not to be impulsive and to seize the opportunity.

Shi Feng sensed Bai Qingxue's firm attitude and was quite troubled by it. However, finding another team to take on Darkmoon Graveyard wouldn't be easy. After all, it was a team dungeon that required a certain level of equipment and trust. Moreover, people who were suddenly recruited might not be reliable, and could even cause harm.

"Alright, let's do as you say." It wasn't wise to have a falling out with Bai Qingxue here. Shi Feng could only give up this opportunity for now, and look for reliable members to tackle other team dungeons after completing this one.

Shi Feng agreed, and Blackie breathed a sigh of relief. However, Zhao Yueru pouted, feeling it was a pity that Shi Feng wasn't driven away.

Bai Qingxue ignored Zhao Yueru's sulking. The dungeon opening time had arrived, and other guild teams were also entering the dungeon one after another. So, she said in the team chat, "Let's go in too."

Before entering, Bai Qingxue set the dungeon difficulty to normal. This way, after everyone entered the teleportation gate, they would be sent into normal mode.

Team dungeons, like small dungeons, have three difficulties: normal, hard, and hell. However, guilds aren't familiar with the dungeons and will start with normal difficulty to understand the dungeon's information and prepare for hard and hell levels.

Now, the various guilds are vying for the first clear of Darkmoon Graveyard, hoping to use this to increase their guild's influence on the players in Red Leaf Town. Naturally, they won't challenge higher difficulties.

One by one, the group entered the teleportation gate and turned into beams of white light, entering Darkmoon Graveyard.

Team dungeons are unlike small dungeons. The maps inside are very large, almost the size of a small town. Some are even as large as a city with a million people.

Darkmoon Graveyard is the initial team dungeon in Red Leaf Town, so the map is relatively smaller.

Unlike team dungeons in other virtual games, all team dungeons in God's Domain are focused on finding the exit to leave. As long as you can leave the dungeon from the exit, it counts as clearing, and you'll receive corresponding dungeon rewards after leaving.

Darkmoon Graveyard is slightly different, mainly because it takes into account that players are making their first contact with team dungeons, so the difficulty is lower. You only need to consider one thing.

Survival!

As long as you can leave from the exit alive, you clear the dungeon.

As soon as everyone entered Darkmoon Graveyard, they felt a gust of cold wind blowing, making them shiver all over.

At this time, the sky was dim, and a red moon shone on the earth. This was a desolate area full of tombstones, with huge rocks erected everywhere, forming a huge maze. A strange atmosphere permeated the air, along with countless wails and howls.

"I'll assign roles first, and then you can just do your respective duties." Bai Qingxue wasn't intimidated by the eerie atmosphere at all. Instead, a hint of excitement appeared on the corner of her mouth.

After spending a few minutes, the team's roles were set. This way, they could react as quickly as possible when encountering any sudden situations.

There were a total of four healers, two priests, one oracle, and one druid.

Two MT (main tank), one shield warrior and one guardian knight.

Shi Feng was assigned to the vanguard team, mainly to fight at the front, while Lonely Snow was in the support team, mainly guarding the healers of the lifeline.

"Okay, scout team, go scout the way. We'll follow slowly behind," Bai Qingxue was very satisfied with the current team formation, and arranged for two assassins to scout the way.

After entering the desolate maze, the two assassins constantly reported what they discovered. Bai Qingxue responded immediately, guiding the team to advance on the best route, easily avoiding the traps set by kobold assassins and warriors.

Kobold Assassin, normal grade, level 5, health points 1600.

Kobold Warrior, elite grade, level 5, health points 3500.

If they entered the traps, they would have to face at least thirty kobold assassins and seven or eight elite kobold warriors, which would definitely cause significant losses to the team.

Thanks to Bai Qingxue's accurate judgment, the team got closer and closer to the exit of the maze. Along the way, they only had to kill a small number of kobolds to achieve this effect. Even Shi Feng was slightly amazed by Bai Qingxue's command, as if everything in Darkmoon Graveyard was under Bai Qingxue's control.

Zhao Yueru walked to Shi Feng's side and said smugly, "How is it? Now you know the difference in strength, right?"

Shi Feng was silent, not paying attention to Zhao Yueru, but gripping the sword at his waist even tighter.

"Hmph, you have nothing to say, do you?" Zhao Yueru assumed that Shi Feng had admitted defeat, and felt a burst of relief in her heart.

However, before Zhao Yueru could be complacent for long, she heard two screams in the team chat.

"Scout team, what happened?" Bai Qingxue asked urgently.

System: Player Bai Yiming has died.

System: Player Feng Zhongying has died.

"What exactly happened?" Zhao Yueru saw that the two dead people were the scout team, and her heart was full of questions.

However, no one answered Zhao Yueru's question.

In God's Domain, players cannot talk or chat after death.

Immediately, everyone became nervous, vigilantly looking around.

The bizarre deaths of the two made the members of Serpent's Kiss realize one thing.

Both of them were skilled, otherwise they wouldn't have become elite members of Serpent's Kiss. To die so suddenly without even sending out any news could only mean one thing: it was extremely dangerous here now.
