Full health is the kill threshold, no matter if you're a god or a demon!

A gentle green ripple spread out from the altar, enveloping all members of the Dragon Abyss, and each of them received a buff effect.

"Done!" Wu Zhan breathed a sigh of relief. "Now we can get through that poisonous passage."

The main materials dropped by the Goda bug are hard blue carapaces and sharp limbs, which can be used to make armor or weapons.

Among the pile of materials, someone discovered several small bottles containing a deep blue liquid.

【Name: Godard Blue Dye】

[Type: Consumable (Dye)]

[Effect: Permanently changes the appearance color of one piece of equipment to "Gorda Blue". This operation will not change any of the equipment's attributes.]

[Note: The natural dye extracted from the shell of the Goda beetle has a deep and unique color, an elegant hue favored by some nobles.]

"Huh? There's dye too?" A female player curiously picked up a bottle. "The colors are quite pretty!"

Looking at the dyes, Wu Zhan had an idea and smiled, "Since we're all in the same guild and about to establish our own city, why don't we unify our symbols? I think this blue is good. Everyone can dye their right shoulder armor or cloak this color, so it'll be easier to spot each other on the battlefield and it'll look neater!"

The suggestion was immediately met with a positive response.

Thus, an interesting scene unfolded before the entrance to the second level passage—members of the Dragon Abyss Guild, regardless of gender or profession, all took out [Godar Blue Dye] and cheerfully dyed the equipment on their right shoulders with a uniform, deep "Godar Blue".

"Haha, now we're the 'Blue Shoulder Army'!" Wang Tugang laughed, patting his blue-dyed shoulder armor.

"Blue-shouldered soldiers? Not bad, not bad! From now on, this blue shoulder will be the symbol of our Longyuan!" Everyone echoed.

Liu Nian also smiled and dyed his right shoulder blue.

Looking at his spirited team members, Wu Zhan felt a surge of pride. He waved his hand dismissively:

"Blue Shoulder Army! Target: the second level of the Dark Territory beyond the Poisonous Passage! Proceed!"

With the [Toxin Immunity] buff, the members of the Dragon Abyss Guild once again stood before the passage that resembled the throat of a monster.

At this moment, the dense, fluorescent poison gas no longer posed any threat to them.

"Maintain formation, stay close! Let's go!" With a command from Wu Zhan, the high-ranking team members led the way, stepping into the passage first.

The passage was narrower and more oppressive than they had imagined. The fleshy, wall-like structures around them seemed to be writhing slightly. Thick venom dripped from above, but it was blocked and slid away by an invisible green halo when it approached their bodies.

The ground beneath my feet was slippery and springy, and it felt very strange to step on it.

The passageway is not entirely straight and has some bends, but there are no forks in the road.

After walking for a full fifteen minutes in the claustrophobic and eerie environment, a faint light, different from the poisonous green, finally appeared ahead.

"We can see the exit!" came an excited voice from the front of the group.

The group quickened their pace and finally broke through the long and suffocating passage.

When their feet touched solid ground again, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if they had seen the light of day again—even though this was still the eternal underground world.

However, before they could even take a good look at their surroundings, a question popped into everyone's mind.

Wu Zhan frowned as he watched the passage behind him slowly close, transforming back into a rocky disguise. "The passage is one-way, or at least we haven't found a way to open it from this side. How to get back is the problem..."

This question cooled the lively atmosphere slightly, and everyone became serious upon hearing it.

Although Cyber ​​Hell is a gamified world, it still has basic rules for survival.

Players need to eat and sleep. The system will prompt players to enter "rest mode" at night. If they force themselves to stay up late or do not get enough rest, they will accumulate a series of debuffs such as "fatigue", "drowsiness" and "lack of energy", which will cause all attributes to decrease, slow reaction, and in severe cases, even hallucinations.

The longer you stay up all night, the harsher the punishment will be.

They couldn't stay on this second floor forever; they needed a safe place to rest and recuperate.

Moreover, looking at the time, it was almost dusk, and in about three hours, the outside world should be completely dark.

Although this place is underground, the player's biological clock is still normal.

Liu Nian was also observing the environment when he heard Wu Zhan say:

"The most urgent task is to find a safe base, similar to the mushroom tribe we wiped out before." Wu Zhan looked around. "Unfortunately, our alliance with the dwarves and our acquisition of the title 'Destroyer of the Mushrooms' have already made us mortal enemies of the mushroom forces. Otherwise, we could have given it a try... Now, we need to find another place."

Upon hearing this, Liu Nian took a deep breath and turned his gaze to the second level of this vast and boundless dark region.

The map in their hands was completely useless. From now on, they were truly in the dark and had to explore on their own.

This place is far more complex, dangerous, and vast than the first level!

Everyone knew that there must be a fungus tribe here, but in fact there really was a fungus kingdom. This kingdom was one of the overlords of this second level, occupying the richest and most energy-rich area.

Numerous fungus tribes are scattered around this area, and the "Fungus Annihilation" title on the members of the Dragon Abyss Guild will make them the fungus tribe's top priority target.

In addition, there is a remnant of the Frost Giants here.

This is a small group of descendants of frost giants who were stranded here due to an ancient war. They occupy a glacial canyon with a vein of ice.

These giants are tall, with adults generally exceeding 10 meters in height. They are siege units with amazing defense and formidable physical attack power. They are also skilled in using frost power. However, they are relatively closed-off and xenophobic. As an NPC faction, they are not the type to actively invade. They have a long-standing feud with the fire lizards to the south.

Large numbers of fire lizards and their evolved forms, such as lava scalers and fire-breathing wyverns, inhabit the crisscrossing lava rivers and volcanic caves of the south. They are fierce, highly territorial, and possess precious fire-elemental materials within their bodies. They are natural enemies of the Frost Giants due to their elemental affinities, and conflicts between them are constant.

As for the last faction, that is the goblin players, who invaded here through other passages. Because this place not only has a large number of monsters, but also many mineral veins, these greedy and cunning creatures naturally wouldn't let these go. Moreover, they are also skilled in engineering, explosives, and biological modification. Powerful goblin players can tame and modify reptiles, much like human players' mounts.

The dwarf prince Gelbin mentioned earlier that they were dealing with an invasion from the goblin kingdom in the Eastern Rift, which actually refers to these goblins!

Therefore, this second underground level also serves as a defensive base for the engineering dwarfs, located on the edge of the eastern mining area.

These were all gnome engineering teams from Prince City of Gearheart, who had clashed fiercely with goblin players in their efforts to protect and mine the magical mineral deposits here.

However, no one knew this, otherwise, this defensive base would have been their best place to stay.

In addition, common monsters found here include: mimic stone golems, swarms of shadow bats, cave spiders, burrowing worms, underground dire wolves, and so on.
