It looked like a shopping district. Shops lined the streets, selling clothes, dining sets, bags, and shoes.
A shopping mall!
That meant after the first clear, those items could be converted into resources.
Joanna even spotted a jewelry store.
Gold, formed from supernova explosions, were sold for 1,000 Starcoins per 0.035 ounces and was effective against supernatural monsters, making it extremely valuable.
If that shop held more than 220 pounds of gold, it would be worth over 100 million Starcoins.
There were also people walking around, like normal residents.
Joanna knew they were NPCs. As the dungeon existed longer, they would slowly disappear, just like unique items.
Of course, they might also be monsters.
In zombie-type dungeons, normal people often transformed as the dungeon progressed.
Just then, 19 other professionals appeared around Joanna. They all looked strong. Anyone bold enough to enter a Nightmare-tier dungeon was probably at least SS-rank. Still, they looked
young.
That made sense. Space Alliance ran the SAT on a unified schedule. Last year’s SS-rank talents were already past Level 20 and couldn’t enter this dungeon. The ones here were likely fresh graduates who had just reached Level 15 or higher.
Everyone here was a competitor.
But inside the dungeon, they were temporary teammates.
There were three pre-formed teams, plus five solo players, including Joanna.
“Do we explore together or split up?”
“Where are the monsters?”
“Gaze of the Unknown Evil God … It sounds like a puzzle dungeon.”
Suddenly, a chilling sensation washed over everyone, like something unseen was watching

Black threads began falling from the sky.

They shimmered like rays of light and landed on buildings, people, and even peaceful doves.
The next moment, people’s eyes bulged and burst out of their sockets with sickening pops. Where their heads once were, a single massive eyeball appeared.
All the former tourists turned into humanoids with eyeball heads.
The doves’ heads also exploded, replaced by ping-pong-sized eyeballs. Even without heads, they kept flying.
The horrifying scene sent shivers through everyone.
Worse still, the black threads began falling toward the players.
“Ah!”
An assassin screamed and grabbed his head, as if it was about to explode.
A pastor quickly cast a shield, but it couldn’t stop the assassin’s eyes from swelling.
“I can’t do this dungeon! I’m out!”
The assassin jumped straight into the fountain portal and vanished.
Soon after, an archer felt intense pain, panicked at the thought of dying, and quickly retreated as well.
That was how pioneer dungeons worked. Slow, careful exploration was everything.
But if a new dungeon was abandoned and failed, the dimensional plane could drain energy back from the Space Alliance.
That was why every new dungeon had to be cleared as quickly as possible.
Joanna felt no discomfort at all. Instead, her mind raced, analyzing the situation.
At that moment, her Memory Tome glowed and began recording.
“Upon entry, black threads transform all tourists into eyeball-headed monsters. Current monster types: Human Eyeball Monsters, Dove Eyeball Monsters.
“An assassin and an archer experienced discomfort and began transforming. It’s likely tied to base attributes. Low vitality or spirit causes early-stage effects.”
