As more players started going there, Shi Feng’s area turned leisurely.
“Brother Feng, I’m not seeing things, right? Or am I dreaming right now?” Blackie rubbed his eyes as he asked with uncertainty.
Shi Feng was speechless. With a bitter smile, he looked towards the three-man party that caused this disturbance.
The newcomer was not just anybody; she was Blackie’s idol, Goddess Gentle Snow. Gentle Snow’s body was covered in a suit of gorgeous silver-colored Plate Armor, revealing her fine and curvaceous body. Adding to her angelic beauty and snow-cold temperament, even women’s hearts would be moved by her, as well as a large group of men.
Even Shi Feng couldn’t help but admit that Gentle Snow was the most perfect woman he had seen before, be it regarding appearances, body, or temperament. There was not a single female celebrity who could match up to her.
As for the two people on each side of Gentle Snow, Shi Feng was very familiar with them as well. He had seen them before on big news channels. They were all famous experts in God’s Domain.
One of them was also an absolute beauty named Zhao Yueru. If Gentle Snow could be said to possess a perfect body and appearance, then Zhao Yueru possessed a devilishly enticing body and appearance. Every one of her movements was like a temptation that could influence a person’s heart. Adding on the fiery red robe that she wore, her body radiated a wild-like charm.
Such bewildering charms had caused many men wanting to go over and assault her.
If you really did such a thing, however, then congratulations. You’ve just earned a one-way ticket directly to hell.
This was because words such as ‘big breasts, no brains’ and ‘as delicate as a flower’ were not applicable to Zhao Yueru. In God’s domain, she had another nickname of the Flame Witch. The reason why she held this title was that of the mountain of corpses she had piled up using these male players.
There had once been a Guild Leader of a large Guild that had tried assaulting Zhao Yueru. As a result, the Guild that had over a hundred thousand players became no more; Zhao Yueru even hunted their Guild Leader. The incident only came to an end when that Guild Leader was killed back to Level 0. From then on, the title of Flame Witch had been cast on Zhao Yueru.
Compared to the Snow Goddess and Flame Witch, the Priestess by their side could only be considered normal. She was not overly beautiful, her techniques were not bad, and she was also within the top hundred rankings of Star-Moon Kingdom’s Priest Leaderboard.
Two absolute beauties plus a great beauty, such a combination had created brilliant scenery in the Deathly Forest. Hundreds of players surrounded them, trying to become acquainted with the three women. Unfortunately, the three beauties did not even look at them.
“Sister Yueru, these people are really scary. How about we return and level up?” The timid Xiao Yue’er whispered.
“Hehe, Yue’er, don’t be afraid. With Gentle Snow here, even if you give these hateful, vulgar men ten times the courage, they wouldn’t dare come over here,” Zhao Yueru said with a smile, proudly sticking out her chest.
Gentle Snow only nodded her head in reply. Regarding these salivating, vulgar men, she did not even place them in her eyes.
“Although the drops from Elite monsters are not bad, the drop rate for skill books is higher at the Deathly Forest. If we don’t grind for a few more skill books, we will level up very slowly in the future,” Gentle Snow quietly said.
Zhao Yueru nodded her head in agreement. Although the three of them had killed quite many Elite monsters, the number of skill books that dropped was very little. Until now, the three of them had yet to learn even three skills. It was really affecting their strength utilization and grinding efficiency.
“Effective party for Deathly Forest, looking for a healer and MT, 3 waiting for 3.” After taking a few looks, Shi Feng continued shouting.
Although Gentle Snow and Zhao Yueru were indeed attractive, Shi Feng was no longer a child. He had seen plenty of beauties, especially after he became Shadow’s Captain; many beauties would willingly throw themselves at Shi Feng. As for Gentle Snow and Zhao Yueru, it was good enough to just look at them for pleasure. Such beauties were not something Shi Feng could have thoughts about. His main goal right now was to get down to business.
However, Shi Feng’s shouting did not yield any replies. Not a single player had even glanced at him. All of them were staring and salivating at Gentle Snow’s group of three. Even Blackie was no exception; his eyes had nearly popped out of their sockets from staring.
Shi Feng sighed, helplessly shaking his head and continued shouting and recruiting people.
“Crap, what is this fool blabbering about? Do you really think anybody would commit suicide together with you in the Dungeon?”
“Quickly scram, you Level 1 noob! Stop distracting me from looking at beauties.”
Quite a few players started to express their discontentment. Two high-quality beauties had already shown up, yet instead of trying to get closer to them, Shi Feng was actually making noise here. What would you do if those beauties were scared off?
“That person is interesting. He can actually attract the hostility of so many people. Did he do something immoral before?” Xiao Yue’er revealed a crescent moon-like smile, giggling as she pointed at Shi Feng.
Zhao Yueru aimed her eyes over as well. She felt nothing special from Shi Feng. He was even dressed in tattered clothing. Zhao Yueru felt that Shi Feng was just trying to seek attention from the crowd. She suddenly said in disdain, “He is definitely doing so to grab our attention. Let’s not bother with him and quickly party up 3 people to dive the Dungeon.”
Regarding the number of men who had tried to attract their attention, there were just too many of them. Zhao Yueru had seen all kinds of methods these men had used before, and Shi Feng’s method was not a rare sight at all, but instead outdated.
Gentle Snow did not voice out any opinions, only taking a look at Shi Feng. She felt an odd feeling coming from Shi Feng; this was the spirit of a hidden sword. Gentle Snow was especially concerned about the fire poker hanging around Shi Feng’s waist.
“Gentle Snow, what happened to you?” Zhao Yueru curiously looked at Gentle Snow. She did not understand why Gentle Snow would keep staring at the extremely ordinary Shi Feng.
“It’s nothing. Maybe it’s just my imagination. We should hurry up and recruit some people to dive the Dungeon.” Gentle Snow shook her head, no longer looking at the fire poker at Shi Feng’s waist.
Originally, Shi Feng’s party already had trouble recruiting for people. However, because of Zhao Yueru’s single sentence, nobody else had paid attention to Shi Feng’s party; even if his party had an expert present.
Shi Feng expressed his helplessness when seeing the hundreds of players queuing up in front of Zhao Yueru. The three women’s arrival had really bad timing.
“Brother Feng, why don’t we go over there as well,” Blackie shamelessly suggested.
“Scram! What do you take me for?” Shi Feng rolled his eyes at Blackie. This fellow was just too shameless, forgetting friendship after finding love. Instead, Lonely Snow was the better one. He was a truly honest man. In the beginning, Lonely Snow had only taken a few glances but stopped after giving out a few praises. He had even helped Shi Feng in recruiting people by his side.
Blackie did not dare to speak again after being scolded by Shi Feng. He could only silently look on in envy at those players in the queue.
Over ten minutes later, Shi Feng still had not recruited a single person. Similarly, Gentle Snow’s party had also not recruited a single person. However, in Shi Feng’s case, it was because nobody had come to join his party. Whereas for Gentle Snow’s party, it was because the players that wanted to join did not match up to their specifications. One party was in heaven, while the other was on earth.
Shi Feng had no more choices. He could not just continue dragging on in such a way; his time was precious. He could only make exceptions in recruiting.
“Efficient party for Deathly Forest, we have an expert leading the party, clear in one try, no limit to levels, looking for healers and damage dealers, 3 waiting for 3.”
However, Shi Feng’s words had caused many players to send over looks of disdain.
Even if you were trying to attract attention, you should have a lower line!
Currently, there had already been tens of Level 2 players who had died out of the Dungeon. Every one of them had said the Deathly Forest was impossible to clear. On the other hand, Shi Feng said his party had no level limits. Then wasn’t he trying to say that he only needed one person to clear the Deathly Forest? Was this possible?
However, Shi Feng lower line had still attracted some player’s attention. Within a few moments, a group of Level 1 players had come running over to join.
Tens of Level 1 players came running over. The area in front of Shi Feng’s party had also started becoming lively.
“This person is really something. He is so desperate to enter the Dungeon that he would even want Level 1 noobs. Did he not know that there has already been a Level 2 Elite party that had returned after dying?”
“Who cares about him. A noob is a noob after all. We won’t be able to understand their thoughts.”
The long queue of Level 2 players started laughing one after another at Shi Feng’s actions. They all wanted to watch Shi Feng become a joke.
“Those guys are really interesting. Even I don’t have much confidence in clearing the Deathly Forest, yet they actually want to clear it with a group of Level 1 players.” Zhao Yueru’s lips curled up slightly, revealing an exuberant smile as she looked in Shi Feng’s direction. Her voice carried a hint of ridicule and disdain.
Gentle Snow also sent a glance towards Shi Feng from a distance. Shi Feng’s temperament was both calm and confident. He did not become angry from being laughed at. Every one of his movements was very mature, not much different from the experts in God’s Domain she had seen before. However, she did not understand from where Shi Feng’s confidence came. Deathly Forest was Red Leaf Town’s first Dungeon, and it was also everyone’s first time being in touch with a Dungeon in God’s Domain; their difficulties were an unknown. Even the Elite parties of Guilds would carefully choose their members before entering the Dungeon. On the other hand, Shi Feng did not care in the slightest, as if just gathering 6 players was good enough.
“Maybe I’m just overthinking things. He’s just a Level 1 player, so how could he clear the Deathly Forest.” Gentle Snow caressed her elegant hair, her heart no longer thinking about Shi Feng’s odd actions. She looked at her hand, at the player information displayed on it, “Level 2 Summoner, Magic Attack 28, HP 150, Defense 8, Movement Speed 4. Fail. Next.”
Afterward, another Cursemancer stepped forward. The person tensely sent his own Attributes to the Snow Goddess, Gentle Snow.
On the other side, Shi Feng as well was looking at player data.
Although he did not have a lower line, he did have a bottom line.
The equipment and levels of these Level 1 players were much worse than the Level 2 players that Gentle Snow’s party were recruiting. However, they were still players. As long as they did not simply add their 8 Free Attribute Points early on, the chance of clearing the Deathly Forest with a 6-man party was very high.
As for those Shield Warriors and Guardian Knights who solely added Strength or Weapons Job but did not add Agility, all of them were rejected.
“Big brother, please party me. Although I am just a Level 1 Guardian Knight, I have a piece of Level 0 Common Equipment. Also, all 8 of my Attribute Points are still available. I can completely add them based on your requirements. “ A youth named Cola pleaded, his eyes filled with expectations.
Shi Feng was slightly surprised. A Guardian Knight that did not add any Attribute Points could actually reach Level 1. It was a masterpiece. It had to be known that Guardian Knights had very low Attack, making the killing of monsters difficult. Normally, they would party up to kill monsters. To increase grinding efficiency, they would add a few points of Strength. Otherwise, leveling up would be too slow.
Guardian Knight Cola?
“Cola…… Cola.” When Shi Feng looked at Cola’s face, and also his tall and muscular body, he felt that it was somewhat familiar. Suddenly, he entered into deep thought. His memory seemed to have such a person in it.
That’s right! It’s Tyrant Bear!
Shi Feng managed to remember it; Tyrant Bear’s name was Cola. Tyrant Bear was the core MT of the first-rate Guild, [Brilliant Stars]. During the early periods of God’s Domain, Tyrant Bear was constantly unsuccessful. He was even kicked out by third-rate Guild, [Heaven’s Crown]. After entering Brilliant Stars, Cola suddenly started to shine. He turned from being a normal party’s MT into the core elite party’s MT in the Guild. He was ranked fifteenth on the Guardian Knight Leaderboard of Star-Moon Kingdom. Cola was known for both being able to attack and defend. Shi Feng had never thought that the Tyrant Bear would run up to him on his own. Cola was such a shy person, as well. It was totally different from the Tyrant Bear of ten years later.
Suddenly, Shi Feng had an idea.
Currently, the Tyrant Bear had yet to join Heaven’s Crown, not to mention Brilliant Stars. If Shi Feng could poach Cola over and turn Cola into his own MT, then wouldn’t Dungeon-diving in the future be a lot easier?
“Big brother, I guarantee that I will absolutely listen to your commands when inside the Dungeon. Please consider it over,” Cola’s tone carried hints of begging.
Shi Feng had nearly let loose a laugh. The great Tyrant Bear would actually speak in such whispered tones just for a position in the Dungeon. However, Shi Feng still held it in.
The Level 1 players that had come here all held hopes of getting lucky. The other parties that entered the Deathly Forest with Level 2 players were already no good, not to mention Level 1 players like them. If they could enter once into the Deathly Forest and fortunately obtain one or two pieces of equipment, then it would be of great help to their future development. At that time, entering into a large Guild would become much easier.
“Alright, I can add you in.” Shi Feng’s face turned grave as he said, “However, you should know that bringing a Level 1 noob like you into the Deathly Forest isn’t easy. I can’t just carry you through the Deathly Forest, and then after you get equipment, you join some other elite parties. Wouldn’t I just be striving for nothing?”
When Shi Feng finished his speech, quite a few Level 1 players had suddenly sent over looks of disdain. Weren’t you also a Level 1 noob?
However, Shi Feng did not care about what these people felt. He continued saying, “I wish to form a stable party. Even if we need members, it would be with stability as the priority. If you wish to enter the Dungeon, you need to be prepared for the long term. When I call you for Dungeon-diving, you must come. You cannot reject because you have some other matters. So, what will be your choice?”
When the other players heard Shi Feng saying so, they suddenly turned quiet.
Shi Feng’s intentions were very clear. If you wish to enter the party, then you won’t be able to join other parties in the future, not to mention joining a Guild.
Everybody knew that entering a Guild was the best method to increase your own strength quickly.
Currently, they did not have the qualifications to join any of those Guilds. So, they were here to try their luck, hoping to obtain one or two pieces of equipment. They might even be able to join those Guilds afterward. So, how would they be able to give up their chances of entering a good Guild just to enter a Dungeon.?
Cola had also never imagined that Shi Feng would give such a demand. However, it was still reasonable. You couldn’t just expect other people to bring you up, then leave when you become strong. However, Shi Feng lacked the persuasiveness when he said these words.
At this moment, Blackie stood out and furiously said, “Just looking at you noobs, there is nobody that would want you down in the Dungeon. And you still wish to join a Guild in the future and enjoy their benefits? Are you thinking yourselves as experts, or are you taking us for idiots?”
Cola thought what Blackie, the ‘expert,’ had said made sense. Even a Level 2 expert with three pieces of Bronze Equipment was in this party, whereas Cola himself was just a novice noob. So, what right did he have to complain?
“Many thanks for Big Brother Expert’s pointers. Little brother will definitely strive to fulfill his own role.” Cola continuously thanked Blackie.
Blackie felt somewhat uneasy from being thanked and referred to as an expert by Cola. Blackie was just a complete impostor of an expert. However, being called such by someone made Blackie want to become an expert in God’s Domain even more.
“Blackie, beautifully done!” Shi Feng stretched out a thumbs-up, quietly praising Blackie.
Shi Feng never imagined Blackie would tame the Tyrant Bear just like that. The Tyrant Bear had also called Blackie a Big Brother with a face full of respect.
Blackie suddenly became confused. He did not understand what he had done that was worth being praised by Shi Feng. However, he was still very happy. At least he had done something for Shi Feng; although he didn’t know what he had done exactly.
Over ten minutes later, Shi Feng finally gathered six players. They could start Dungeon-diving now.
