The guards stationed there were somewhat surprised to see Li Yu and his group arrive. When Li Yu stepped forward, they stopped him, saying, "Please show your identification."

This place is not open to the public yet. To enter, you need to pass an ID check to confirm that there is information inside.

Upon hearing the other party's words, Li Yu immediately took out his ID card. The other party took it and swiped it on the machine next to him. The next moment, an indicator light turned green.

The other party returned the ID card to Li Yu, indicating that he should go inside. Then they began to check the ID cards of other people, and without exception, everyone was allowed to pass through directly.

After confirming that there were no major problems, the group entered. Ais and the others had been teleported here before, and they hadn't even had time to look around before they were teleported away.

"Is nobody here right now?" Lefiya looked around and couldn't help but ask Li Yu.

Aside from the guards on the outside, there wasn't a single person in sight inside. Dungeon in other worlds really that quiet?

"Nobody's here. It's not open to the public yet, and I don't know the specifics. Maybe some people are in the Dungeon." Li Yu glanced around. The area was already completed, and some shops were even decorated, seemingly just waiting to open.

Hearing Li Yu's words, Lefiya blinked. It wasn't open to the public yet... Thinking of this, Lefiya suddenly asked, "Does that mean no one killed any of the floor masters?"

This is fantastic news! If no one has killed any of the floor masters inside, then everyone can go and take them down. After all, for them, this is a great opportunity to level up.

Ais's heart skipped a beat. She looked at Li Yu and slowly said, "Let's go kill the floor master. I want to see if I can solo the floor master of the 27th floor!"

She'd lost interest in the floor owner of the 17th floor; a solo kill would be easy enough. Now, she was interested in the Amphisbaena on the 27th floor.

"You can't kill it alone. This Dungeon is undeveloped, and it's even different from the ones over there." Li Yu shook his head. Their Dungeon seemed to be a bit different from the ones on the other side.

After all, their Dungeon is in an undeveloped state; can you believe there's still fog on some of the lower floors? We have it here.

Li Yu and his companions had no idea what the deeper situation was, and they didn't even have a map. Li Yu had compared the map of the Dicuo area with the map of Dicuo, and although some places were similar, there were still differences.

Ais was taken aback by Li Yu's words. A completely different Dungeon? If that was the case, they might really be no match for it. Thinking of this, Ais couldn't help but say, "Then let's go take a look. Let's check out the floor master of the 17th floor first."

She decided to take it one step at a time. Since she couldn't kill the boss on the 27th floor, she would start by looking at the 17th floor. She would take it one step at a time and understand the situation on that floor first.

"Okay, let's go in first. You can go ahead, Kato and I will take Bell and Haruhime and follow behind." Li Yu didn't say anything more. He gestured for everyone to go in first, while he and the others would accompany Bell and the others to slowly advance behind.

Hearing Li Yu say this, everyone nodded and then walked directly towards the passage without saying anything more. After everyone had left, Li Yu looked at Bell Haruhime.

"Bell, Haruhime, you two handle the monsters we encounter next," Li Yu ordered directly, letting the two get used to the combat in the first few levels.

Hearing Li Yu say this, Bell Haruhime nodded nervously. Bell's eyes were full of anticipation; he could finally enter the Dungeon he had been dreaming of for an adventure.

Bell didn't hesitate, took out his weapon and walked into the passage. Haruhime followed closely behind. The others had already disappeared from sight. After entering the first level, they hurriedly headed to the next level.

After Bell Haruhime entered the Dungeon, Li Yu couldn't help but say to Kato Megumi, "Let's go in too."

After saying that, Li Yu took the lead and walked out, with Kato Megumi following closely behind. The two of them followed Bell and the other person at a leisurely pace.

Upon entering the Dungeon for the first time, Bell looked around with great vigilance, as if afraid that a monster might suddenly rush out and attack him.

"Don't be nervous. When monsters spawn, they won't attack you suddenly because there's a few seconds delay when they spawn," Li Yu explained the Dungeon rules to Bell and the other person as they walked.

Hearing Li Yu say this, Bell breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Li Yu had been too nervous. Thinking of this, Bell relaxed a lot.

Li Yu's words were quickly confirmed: monsters began to spawn in the Dungeon. Seeing this, Bell became alert again and assumed a fighting stance.

"What are you standing there for? Take them down before they come out. Or are you planning to duel them?" Li Yu looked at the two silly guys and felt a little helpless.

Reminded by Li Yu, Bell paused for a moment, then acted quickly, casting a Lightness Technique on himself and charging directly towards the two monsters that had emerged.

Seeing that Bell had chosen a direction, Haruhime decisively raised the Kagura Bell in her hand, quickly generating a Magic Array. The next moment, a magic bullet was launched, directly blasting towards the other side.

However, her attack missed and went slightly off target. Haruhime was too nervous, and her attack went astray, but the newly spawned monster was still affected.

The magic bullet exploded, blasting the two newly emerged goblins away. Haruhime, realizing her shot had missed, quickly adjusted and attacked again. This time, the magic bullet hit its mark, instantly eliminating the already weak Goblin.

Bell also successfully secured the first kill, quickly rushing forward and easily eliminating the monsters that showed themselves with his short blade.

Looking at the monster he had personally dealt with, Bell smiled. Only one Magic Stone had fallen to the ground, and its quality wasn't very good, but Bell still picked it up.

This was the loot from his first kill, and he naturally wanted to keep it safe. Haruhime, on the other hand, wasn't so lucky; her first kill didn't drop any Magic Stone.

However, Haruhime didn't care much; she was more concerned about her True Magic accidentally going wrong.

"Well done, keep it up." Li Yu's voice rang out at this moment, offering encouragement before Li Yu them to continue their journey.

Li Yu wasn't too demanding about their first battle; as long as they could defeat the monster, wasn't that enough?

Li Yu didn't care about other things. Although there were some mistakes, the process was good. As long as they could improve next time, that would be fine.

Hearing Li Yu's words, the two nodded and continued walking forward, heading towards the second level. The monster respawn rate was quite good.

As they continued their journey, more and more monsters spawned. With each battle, Bell Haruhime became increasingly skilled, and no monster on this level could threaten them anymore.

Li Yu also collected all the fallen Magic Stone. If there was any problem, it was that Haruhime only liked to fight with True Magic and didn't like to rush into melee combat at all.

Li Yu didn't say anything to her, after all, Haruhime really couldn't fight in close combat, and her talent was all in True Magic. He just reminded her to be careful with her magic power, since neither of them was very strong at the moment and didn't have much magic power.

Just as Li Yu and the others were leisurely entering the second level, the mark on his hand suddenly lit up, and Xia Yu's voice rang out, "Class monitor, we're already on the fourth level. Where are you guys?"

Hearing Xia Yu's words, Li Yu couldn't help but say, "We were just about to enter the second level. You guys can continue going deeper first, and we'll meet up again this afternoon."

Upon hearing Li Yu's words, the people on the other end quickly responded, indicating that there was no problem and that they would slow down and wait for Li Yu and the others.

After ending the call, Li Yu led Bell and the other person into the second level, where they began to train. Bell's progress was clearly visible.

In just a few hours, he had completely adapted to the battle, and he was even getting more and more excited as the battle progressed, showing some of the genes of Berserker.

Li Yu and Kato Megumi would occasionally give them some pointers, telling them how to deal with the monsters. Before they knew it, they had reached the sixth floor.

Upon entering, Li Yu suddenly noticed that the fog was much thinner than when they first arrived. Kato Megumi sniffed the air and couldn't help but say, "It looks like someone made a hole over there, and the fog is being expelled."

Kato Megumi shared her discovery. Upon hearing this, Li Yu activated his senses and indeed noticed that a hole had been punched in the Dungeon and a stone had been inserted into it.

"Is this to prevent the Dungeon from regenerating?" Seeing the situation there, a look of surprise flashed in Li Yu's eyes. Was this done by Ais and the others? Was it the same in Danmaku? The fog disappeared after it was developed.

"It was probably Ais and the others who did it." Kato Megumi glanced at the direction the mist was flowing and roughly guessed who was responsible.

"Let's go, we need to speed up. They've probably already reached the teens floor." After saying that, Li Yu gestured for Bell and the others to follow. They didn't need to fight anymore; just keeping up with the pace was enough.

Upon hearing Li Yu's words, Bell and Haruhime hurriedly nodded. Li Yu set off, activating his full perception abilities, and led the group to quickly advance through the Dungeon. Li Yu easily eliminated the monsters that spawned.

Bell, following behind, watched Li Yu effortlessly use True Magic to defeat the monster, and he was filled with envy. When would he be able to take down enemies as easily as Brother Li Yu?

After stopping and starting along the way to allow Bell and Haruhime to recover, Li Yu continued on his journey. The others had already reached the seventeenth floor. Just as Li Yu and the others descended to the thirteenth floor, they received another communication.

"Have you come down yet? We're already at the entrance to the seventeenth floor." Asuna's voice rang out, and upon hearing her words, Li Yu immediately replied, "We're on the thirteenth floor now."

After saying that, Li Yu looked at Bell and the others and said, "Speed up! Wait a minute, you guys will see how Miss Ais fights the boss."

If nothing unexpected happens, Ais intends to solo the boss this time, so things are about to get interesting. Li Yu promptly increased his speed.

Bell and Haruhime quickly followed, and the group rushed down from the 13th floor. By the time they met up with everyone on the 17th floor, Bell and Haruhime were exhausted.

They weren't strong enough; they were struggling just to keep up. Bell was getting increasingly anxious. He secretly resolved that he had to become stronger this time, otherwise they wouldn't even be able to keep up.

"Let's go in!" Ais said upon seeing Li Yu's arrival, then turned and walked into the passage leading to the seventeenth floor.

Seeing this, Li Yu didn't say anything. Since the other party wanted to try a one-on-one fight, then let her try and see what kind of boss they had in this world.

With this in mind, Li Yu and the others followed them inside. Bell could finally breathe a sigh of relief; they had barely managed to keep up with Li Yu and the others.

As soon as the group stepped into the seventeenth floor, they heard a series of cracking sounds. The environment here was the same as that in the dungeon, still a huge, gray space.

Ais drew her weapon, locked her gaze on the direction from which the sound came, and charged out. The battle was about to begin, and the others remained still, watching intently.

Before the boss even appeared, Ais had already leaped high into the air, brandishing her sword. A streak of emerald green sword energy shot out, severely injuring the newly emerged Goliath.

"Roar!" The turquoise slash directly severed his outstretched hand, instantly enraging Goliath, whose birth rate also suddenly increased.

In the blink of an eye, it burst through the wall and launched an attack on Ais. Facing the oncoming Goliath, Ais met it with incredible agility, her entire body transforming into a streak of emerald light.

The next moment, a gale howled, and streaks of emerald green sword light erupted from Goliath's body. This was followed by Goliath's furious roar, and Ais unleashed countless slashes on Goliath's body with terrifying speed.

Taking advantage of this moment, Ais had already arrived behind Goliath, floating in the air. Facing Goliath, whose neck was exposed, Ais expressionlessly unleashed her full-force attack.

A turquoise wind blade slashed towards Goliath's neck, severing Goliath head on the spot. His massive body slowly collapsed to the ground, eventually turning into dust and dissipating into nothingness.

"This is boring! This is boring!" Xia Yu couldn't help but complain as she watched the floor owner being killed in a single exchange. "There's no entertainment value at all. It's just a one-sided massacre. What's the point of this?"

"It's really boring. Ais is already at Sixth Tier, killing a boss like this is child's play for her. It's a pity, otherwise you guys could have given it a try." Li Yu looked at Goliath, who had already been defeated, with some regret.

It's such a waste to let Ais handle this; we should have let Asuna and the others come instead. That way, we could have seen if they could take them down with just a few people.

"Let's go to the 27th floor! We'll definitely be able to take down the floor master of the 27th floor easily this time!" Xia Yu now had a general understanding of their own strength.

Last time, everyone managed to kill the Amphisbaena, so this time it will only be easier for them. If possible, they want to try to kill the floor master without relying on Li Yu and Ais, just by their own strength.

Furthermore, the Dungeon bosses in this world are actually quite similar to those in DanMachi. Although they are undeveloped Dungeon, the monsters are almost identical, as are the dungeon bosses!

Hearing this, Li Yu nodded and didn't refuse. If no one else wanted to kill, then they could kill. What was the big deal? It would be good for Bell and the others to gain some experience. With that in mind, Li Yu made her decision.

After Ais defeated Goliath and picked up all its loot, she returned to the group. She said dejectedly, "Goliath is a bit weak; there was no pressure at all."

Upon hearing Ais's words, Li Yu rolled his eyes and said, "Isn't it possible that you're too strong? After all, you're no longer Iv5, but have already broken through to lv6."

Ais pursed her lips, seemingly agreeing with the statement. After breaking through to level 6, level 17 Goliath was no longer a problem for her. Thinking this, Ais didn't say anything more.

After everyone smiled, they continued on their way to the safe zone on the 18th floor. After passing through the passage, they entered the 18th floor. There was nothing else there; as far as the eye could see, there was only a lush green grassland and some forests.

The air was much fresher in the undeveloped Dungeon. The group found a suitable place to settle down and began preparing lunch. Because everyone had Space Backpack, they brought quite a lot of things today.

There are even all sorts of pre-cooked dishes that you can just take out and eat. They're all packaged up, since time is frozen inside the Space Backpack, while in modern society, there are just too many things that can be packed inside.

Since they didn't have much to carry, everyone naturally stuffed all their belongings inside. Li Yu was speechless when he saw the food his classmates had brought. Xia Yu even took out a few durians to share with everyone.

"Selling you the Space Backpack was definitely a worthwhile investment." Li Yu was speechless. These guys were just too outrageous. He possessed four spaces, yet he was like a greenhorn in front of them!

Hearing Li Yu's words, Xia Yu chuckled and then handed Li Yu a peeled durian, saying, "Squad leader, would you like some? If you don't like it, I'll give it to someone else."
