《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.

The Dungeon Hive
One thing I noticed about most dungeon stories is that most races mistakenly believe that dungeons have a hive-mind and I go, “That make sense.” Considering the various powers and how big dungeons can get, wouldn’t it make more sense for them to have a hive-mind? So this is it; my take of the world’s first dungeon and the hive that controls it. Watch as it stumbles, fall, survive, strive and…procreate? Watch as it changed the world of Ioplon…for better and for worse. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For edited version of the story, the full trilogy (Book_1: Fantasy Begins, Book_2: Dungeon Flames, Book_3: Spread of the Dungeons) are now available on Amazon. Please take a look, and leave a rating. Thanks

Core Defect
In the 264 years since the Great Singularity Wars, the world has been irrevocably changed. Technologies like nanobots and rogue artificial intelligences have caused the planet's wildlife to evolve in dangerous and powerful ways, pushing humanity to the verge of extinction. However, the remaining survivors are not without ways to fight back. Nanotech can enhance humans just as well as beasts, but perhaps most surprisingly, humanity has found an unexpected ally: a group of human-neutral AIs called Daemons. Val is a 22-year old woman striving to become a User: a nano-empowered human paired with a Daemon that serves as society's final and most powerful line of defense. When a critical issue in her nanosystem's core seemingly leaves her unable to serve as a User, she's given a difficult choice: give up on her dreams or accept a potentially unstable AI, Noir, as her Daemon partner. Val and Noir are stronger together than they are apart, but can they survive long enough to unlock their potential? Can they find a place among the other pairings like them, shunned by society but essential to civilization's survival? If Users are humanity's last line of defense, welcome to the sacrificial first line: the Defects. Updates are currently once a week, aiming for the weekend. Chapters usually 2k-3k in length.

Life, the struggle for existence
What would happen when man had to, once again, fight for its own right to live? Would the evolutionary counterparts of our ancestors manage to life through the struggle for survival? What would happen to society if a new reason for living came up, other than the enjoyment of the well-built environment? A reason that could either unite or destroy humanity.This is the struggle for their right of existence.As earth and its inhabitants are faced with the fear of unknown danger and the peril of monstrosities, some will falter, some will die and some will live on to tell the tales of those forgotten. As reality dictates, most will be part of the first two groups and only a small faction will be part of the latter. *This is my first attempt at writing fantasy, so I do hope you’ll enjoy it. The story is one of apocalyptic nature, with gigantic monsters, unfathomable powers and also a critial view on humanity and what it means to be human. I will definitely try to stay away from any tropes that are not neccesary to write fantasy, as I thoroughly despise non-creativity. There shall be no harems, no unrealistic behavior and absolutely no standard scene of dimwitted bandits that try to rob whatever similarly rock-brained princess they encounter. The main character is not black and white, because no human is completely good or completely evil. They’re human, not some idealistic concept of what one is supposed to be. Enjoy!Warning: Tagged 17+ for the occasional strong language and violence, some mild sexual content can occur in the distant future.
