A year later, in the Virtual Realm's Battlefield Domain:

A group of five individuals cautiously walked, searching for their next prey.

"There are two people up ahead, be ready," commanded Hans, their leader.

However, as they prepared to advance, their scout noticed another group of individuals not far from them.

"Stop, stay in position," Hans ordered.

In the Battlefield Domain, they only had one life; if they failed, they could only remain mediocre for life.

Suddenly, as they cautiously moved forward, waiting for their chance, they noticed more and more groups.

More groups mean more uncertainty and chaos.

"Are we being ambushed?" one of the members said.

"No, something must be attracting them here," Hans concluded confidently.

He still trusted in his group's camouflage

Observing the direction everyone was heading, he could only deduce that something lay ahead.
