《Doll of Death》Chapter 3
Advertisement
I get into position laying in the dark as a pile of rocks and wait to see what is approaching.
(Young Man) "What's with the smell of blood?"
(Young Woman) "It's coming from those monster corpses."
(Gruff Young Man) "What monster leaves behind its spoils of battle? Doesn't it need food?"
It's a group of people. They are probably the so-called "adventurers" people who can't get a real job and resort to doing work the government is too lazy and cheap to send soldiers to do. Let's appraise them.

Too strong! I can't afford to fight them, I'm too weak. Let's just run away. I get up and start running away.
(Chase) "Woah! You saw that Stone Puppet run."
(Emily) "Maybe it saw us as scary and decided to leave."
(Dave) "Who cares, there's nothing to gain fighting Stone Puppets."

(Chase) "It's surprisingly fast for a Stone Puppet. Might be a Unique Stone Puppet."
(Emily) "Even if it is there's still nothing to gain."
(Dave) "Let's just take some of the Scorpion's exoskeleton back since it's in great condition."
They walk towards the corpses and examine them.
(Dave) "whistles They were all killed by one or two blunt hits."
(Chase) "Blunt hits? I wonder if the Stone Puppet killed them? It's only form of attacking are it's blunt hands."
(Emily) "Most likely, if it could kill a scorpion like this in 2 hits it's either at least level 10 or has unique skills to increase damage output. Both dangerous, the latter more so. If any reports in the future talk about a bizarrely strong stone puppet appear we pretend this never happened. Agreed?"
(Chase & Dave) "Yeah."
The small party takes what they want and proceed to head back from where they first came in. Right after they leave a small shadow creeps out of the darkness and heads toward the monster corpses and proceeds to swallow them. After it has its meal it proceeds to crawl back into the darkness and in the direction of where the Doll of Death went to.
A few minutes after I ran I was in a different passageway looking around. I found a group of three level 4 goblins. I observed them and snuck up behind them right when I was in position I attack the back of two of their necks instantly killing them and rush to the third one kicking him in the family jewels killing him.
Level Up! Reached Level 4!
I leveled up good. Now that that's over I should see some of the details on the new things the adventurers had.
