Thes equipment is rather good, at least he won’t have to bother thinking about what he would be wearing once he is level 20. Everything is already up for him so Dave didn’t think much of it and thanked them for their kind gesture.
“Alright, I accept, where are we going then?” said Dave.
“We will be heading to a tomb nearby. It has some high-level Undead, and we can both use them to level you up and to finish our quest. We need to get deeper into the Tomb once we are there we will be fighting a powerful boss. Yet we can’t access the boos. There is a pedestal that needs three people to open before the fight starts.” Said Bone Breaker.
“But I don’t think I am strong enough to fight any bosses, especially bosses within this region, I know it’s a high leveled area. Shouldn't you ask for someone else?” asked Dave trying to prove some information.
“Alright, let's just be honest here,” said Stainless steel who tried to intervene.
“This is a secret quest that we initiated a long time ago we couldn’t ask anyone else in fear that they might jeopardize our quest, you are low level and we only need you to stand on a small platform that is it, as for the boss we will take care of it ourselves”. Said Stainless Steel

Dave then understood that the reason for their actions was rather simple. The fewer people that know about the place the better, and if that place were to become a dungeon, they might be able to put it up for sale. They will be able to get some money out of it.
Dave wasn’t an idiot, though they hid many things from him he still understood the reason why hey chose him, even if there were to do something funny they can easily kill him. Right after they open the boss’s area, they can simply take him out and they could finish off the boss without him bothering them.
However, he also understood that those guys were idiots!
Why didn’t they think that he could just tell his friends and they would come here rushing for the boss?
They must have thought that Dave would be too greedy, having received these requirements he will just act as a docile slave and follow their every order.
Dave actually didn’t have any friends for the moment in the game. So he didn’t think much of exposing their little secret, but still, he didn’t appreciate the idea of being used, even if he was given compensation for it. this was the same thing that happened when he was hospitalized, he was sent to the hospital with injuries that would ruin anyone’s future without hope of recovery.
Still, Dave didn't have a choice, he was given free equipment, so he has to do his end of the bargain.
“When will we depart?” Asked Dave.
“The road will be a bit longer if you have something to do you should go ahead and do it now. You might need to eat something, once we start we won’t stop until we defeat the final boss of the desolate tomb.”
So it is the same tomb that the Bishop spoke about. They wanted to kill the last boss of that dungeon.
“Alright, I will have to log out for a couple of minutes I will need to eat something first.” Said, Dave, as he logged out.
The first thing that dave did was to access the internet and see the desolate tomb. He needed to do his research first.
Then he was surprised to find out that the desolate tomb was an already cleared dungeon!
What was the reason for them asking him to join him?
Indeed it had many and several high-level mobs, but it was not that bothersome for them to slay.
This dungeon was a “Dead dungeon” Dead dungeons, are dungeons who’s boss once defeated will never respawn. Therefore not many guilds want to have these places, once the boss is defeated the value of a dungeon drops heavily. The boss will never spawn and is a one time kill. It was kind of useless to grind there for high-level players.
Still, why did they speak about a boss being there? It all felt weird to Dave but he still had to go with them.
Dave ate a plentiful meal and took a shower. Once he was refreshed he logged back in the game to find the two guys logged out. He already added them to his friend list so he didn’t have anything to do but to wander around.

Once he wandered a bit he found himself near an alchemist shop.
He entered and spoke to the alchemist asking to see his wears. Within them, he found something he was looking for. Something that might be helpful to him if he were to find himself in trouble.
However, he didn’t have enough money to buy the item. So he had to make a sacrifice.
He went to the auction house and made a sale. He placed the tortoise shield up for sale, he wasn’t going to use it anyway.
Those guys were too trustful of Dave. Not only had they given him items they didn’t think he would just put them on the ignore list and leave.
Dave could only sigh at how trustful they were, but on the other hand, he too was the same case. He was trusting them by going with them so it was all the same.
The sale was almost instant as dave made the price to be lower than the least expensive shield on the market of the same category.
Dave received 300 gold, which was equivalent to 300$, that was the value of the shield. If he took into consideration the total amount of the items he received it almost amounts to 900$, that was not something anyone would be willing to give for nothing.
Dave came back to the alchemist shop and got what he needed out of him.
Better be safe than sorry, said Dave to himself.
“Ah, brother Death stroke!” said Bone breaker as he was the first to log back in “Are you ready?”
The private message system was simple to use sod ave then sent a voice message saying.
“Yes, I just got something and now I am ready, let's go”
“Alright, Stainless steel will log in soon, lets head first.” Said Bone breaker as he marked his position on dave’s map”
The moment Dave reached the southern gate of the town, two people were already there. Namely, Bone breaker and Stainless steel who just logged in.
They then added Dave back to the party and ran forward.
They met with several low-level mobs, but they didn’t bother to stop. All they did was launch a spell on them and they would die. Dave would then gain a small amount of experience.
Level up!
Dave began to receive notifications telling him that he was leveling up like crazy!
Those monsters were rather hard for Dave to fight alone. Especially the deeper into the wilderness they went, the stronger the monsters will be. Dave was in euphoria.
“Aren’t you guys going to take the loots?” Asked Dave.
“No, those are low-level monsters, their loots are nothing to us. You should see some high-level mobs, a single fang of a mythical third beast would be worth ten times the value of the armors we gave you. Those drops are shit”
Said Bone breaker as he laughed.
“What are the tiers of beasts and monsters in this game? I never checked.”
“Oh, but if I remember. It starts with normal, then savage, fierce, Desolate. Epic, Mythic. Etheral, holy or unholy, Demonic or angelic, Divine or Devilish, then godlike.
“Why the split there?” asked Dave.
“There are some demonic tiered beasts that can’t fall under the category of Holy, so that is why. And the rest is simple. As for godlike, demonic or divine, they are still considered a god. Its just names, but the equipment drop from unholy beasts, for example, can’t benefit priest classes, but are powerful for warlocks.”
Dave then understood the reason, so that classes wouldn’t bother fighting monsters that are incompatible with them.
And so they delved deeper into the wilderness. Defeating monsters below level 20 were nothing more than a simple auto attack from either the paladin or the priest’s punishment ray which was the lowest costing spell of a priest.
Soon afterward they reached a dark forest. normally they would have reached there faster, but due to Dave’s level being low and his stamina being also low, they had to take some small breaks for him to gain his stamina back up.
“Now things are about to get interesting. Said Bone breaker as a small party of skeletons reached forward.
They all had a small red skull over their heads. This means that they are at least 20 levels above Dave’s character level. And once monsters have a 20 level difference between the character and themselves. Then a penalty occurs. The damage that the lower level one of the two deals is reduced by a percentage of levels. If a target is 30 levels higher than a character then the character deals 10% reduced damage to the enemy and receives 10% additional damage. This is so that people won’t blindly try to fight against high tier monsters. This way the game won’t be broken.
If an army of players attacks a boss they would normally defeat it with sheer numbers. Now that this penalty is laid down, they won’t madly try to fight bosses with higher levels.
This will also prolong the game’s life expectancy. And would make the game more interesting, forcing players to slowly grind their levels up.
“let's start!” said Bone breaker as he struck first with his heavy sword. Crushing the skull of the first skeleton.
Class quest updated
Defeat 25 skeleton soldiers.
1/25
Quest difficulty A
The class quest began updating every time the skeletons were defeated.
This was a rather simple and easy way for players to level up. Being power leveled sure is amazing thought, Dave.
The two mass murderers began slaughtering skeletons left and right, while Dave was leveling up and having his class quest achieved by someone else.

8 225Truck-kun Gets Sacrificed
Driscoll is my own version of a world with a game-like "system" of endless possibilities. MC has his own status, classes, skills, magic, and a living greatswordstaff in a world of monsters, demi-humans of all kinds, and even the supernatural. Sound good? Well, at first for Tru, it was a dream come true(I'm sorry). At least until reality hits him again and again. His quest from God is vague and must be discovered by him along the way. Hopefully, he can figure that out someday but for now, this new world's threats and his potential for power are motivation aplenty. With His new partner by his side, he's ready to embark on his mission of infinite sacrifice, however many lives it takes. The setting is pretty standard for fantasy, with my beginner attempts at writing. Litrpg elements are definitely involved here but It'll calm down as the story progresses and the world's foundation is laid. Judeo/Christian themes and principles take a major role and will be a backbone for much of the story. The fights will paint a picture in the mind rather than just be a bunch of number crunching. While he is meant to be a sacrifice to save all of Driscoll, he needs to gain enough power and influence to be a worthwhile sacrifice, or so he thinks. And so carnage will ensue as he avoids death as best he can while at the same time sacking himself for others. Truck Coon is your average determined, jiu-jitsu practitioner, tax associate that just started his new career. He dies to save kids from a semi-truck(Truck Coon got truck-kun'd, making him Truck-kun) and is transported to another world rather conventionally by God. Upon his arrival, he is quickly confronted with his first conflicts in the wild. Give it a shot and let me know what you think. Chapters are currently between 2300 and 4000 words and I try to post weekly, but also deal with severe limitations that cause late posts often. I have zero actual experience with writing stories and only recently started reading web novels in 2020. If you end up hating it, let me know your thoughts in a detailed comment or review, especially if you love it though :D I want to get better and welcome the feedback, so expect changes to be made with any flaws that y'all point out which I don't already have plans to address in future chapters. That being said, keep it constructive in nature, please. I have no Idea how the formatting and such will go, so if you like or dislike some techniques I try, give me that well-appreciated feedback! Thank you for reading.
8 544Of Righteous Evil
To wield the magical Arts. The power to manipulate nature itself. Follow Silas on his journey as he learns what it means to be a Mage. With war brewing on the horizon, Silas' plan to become a hero clashes with the harsh reality of conflict. Torn between contradicting emotions, he will have to reconsider his perceptions of both good and evil. Does the end truly never justify the means? Note from author (13.09.20): Sentences have been shortened, less commata used. Paragraphs have been split up. Meant to be "realistic" fantasy, with no overpowered protagonist or evil sorcerer trying to destroy the world. The focus lies on the characters, their progressions and their inner conflicts, coupled with an intricate magic system. Constructive criticism is highly appreciated! HIATUS Updates: 12.12.20 Chapter 1 & 2 are written together. The backstory of the parents will be integrated into one of the later chapters. 20.12.20 Prologue has been rewritten, fight added. Will now continue writing the chapters until the first arch is finished. 19.01.21 Chapter 15 is written. Will hopefully be able to write more from now on, university has been kinda rough these days. 08.04.21 Chapter 16 & 17 has been written. Beginning will be rewritten (again) to start with chapter 3. Chapter 1 & 2 will be shown through reocurring dreams / nightmares. 10.08.21 Rewriting of the first arc is complete and has been proofread twice. Plot of rest of book one is 80% complete. Will publish chapters once first book is finished and proofread. 06.12.21 Second arc is finished (chapter 24/31-33). First draft will likely be finished around February, after which I will edit a few suggestions of my beta readers and publish it on RR. Release schedule: Once a week on Sunday, chapters are around 3000 words long. (HIATUS, see last chapter for more info) Cover art by Riverman09

This story is utterly brutal, sick, twisted, and vile. Rape, Murder, Gore, Nature. Elephants rape and murder rhinos... I want to make this story twisted from the start. The world is a viscous and cruel place. My story is going to push limits. Abandon all hope, ye who enter here.
