"Ok, I will do as you say." Leonard nodded his head.
"Oh yeah, I asked Robert to take me to the ships today, who wants to come?" Dan asked after remembering about it.
"I will go." Randy said as soon as Dan finished his words, he didn't really have a lot of things to do, and he found staying at the underground base quite boring so he decided to follow him.
"Me too, I never saw a ship before" Anie said.
"Yeah, you seem better now you aren't as weak as you used to be, so I think that going out is going to be a good thing for you " her brother Robin said that with a gentle smile.
Anie's complexion did become better after the blood bath, her face wasn't as pale as before, even though it was still white from her not going out a lot, her white skin had a hint of healthy redness, making it obvious that she was better than before.
"What about you brother, won't you come with us?" Anie's asked her brother, it seemed from his words that he didn't want to go with them.
"Yeah, I won't go I just started feeling my power again, I will rest for today, and who knows? maybe after tonight's blood bath I might be able to use my ability again." when he finished his words he turned his head to Dan and said:
"Dan you won't have to wait for my answer, tonight I will be awaiting your help with the body tempering technique."
His words were a surprise to Dan but he smiled and said:
"Ok, don't worry I won't forget it."
Anie didn't try changing her brother's mind, as first, she knew that if he decided on something, no one can make him change his mind and second, she didn't want to appear as if she didn't trust Dan
.
"Don't look at us, even though she's somehow able to control her ability it's not perfect we still have a lot of work to do." Nero said.
His words made Katherine somehow sad, she too wanted to see the ships with Anie and the others, but she also knew that the most important thing for her at that time was to control her ability, so she didn't say anything.

"What about you Leonard do you want to come." Dan then turned his head to Leonard and asked.
Leonard hesitated for a bit, but after his eyes fall on Katherine he said:
"I think that I will stay, I want to take a look at how Katherine is training, after all I too will awaken an ability soon, and should know those things."
"Ok, it's decided then, but let,s leave that for later, n
ow let us try our new powers." Dan said
.
They then moved to a room which the blood power users used for training.
For the gang they found that their speed, reflex and power all became way better then before, they were still less powerful then the one eyed dragon, but it was a good start.
"You freak, forget about any danger, you better help me with that technique of yours tonight." Nero said while looking at Dan.
Dan had the most improvement amongst them, he was almost as strong and as fast as the one eyed dragon, giving the others a great shock, and making them finally understand what that technique really meant.
At the end everyone showed happy expressions.
Especially Anie. Her face was beaming with happiness, she had a weak body since young, so heaving a healthy body was unthinkable for her.
"Ok we understood our powers better now, so everyone return to what you should be doing, and to those who want to go with me to see the ships, take a rest we will leave three hours from now."Dan said.
Nero Leonard and Katherine left on their own, while Robin and his sister left to rest.
Dan returned to his room calmed himself, and started thinking about what they would need in their long journey through the ocean, he thought for a while and made a mantle note of everything he thought they needed before setting down and looking at the drops of dragon blood in the little bottle.
He wished for more blood, the memories in his head of people fighting dinosaurs bare-handedly were something he wanted, not just for himself but for the other six and everyone that might follow him.
And then he started thinking about his group, they were just a bunch of people bought together by chance, and they had no sense of belonging to each other, but that wasn't what he wanted, he wanted them to think about themselves as a part of one group, one team, that's what he wanted them to think about.

As his mind kept on going from one thing to the other he didn't notice the passing of time, not before he heard old Frank's voice along with some knocks on his room's door:
"Sir Dan, it's time to go to the ships, the others are ready, they are only waiting for you."
Old Frank's voice brought him back to his senses, he hurriedly got up fixed his clothes and left the room.
When he did, he found old Frank waiting for him there.
"Hey old Frank, how was your morning?" Dan asked.
"It was great, thanks for asking. Now please follow me, the others are already waiting for you." old Frank answered, before he started moving.
He was actually quite happy, starting from yesterday, after Dan and the others took control of the gang, he was being treated way better than before, it was because he was the only one in the whole gang with a good relationship with them.
Dan nodded his head and followed old Frank, they talked as they moved toward the place where the others were.
"You are quite late." Randy said as soon as he saw Dan enter the room.
"Sorry, I was somehow lost in my thought in my own room, so I kind of forget entirely about time." Dan said apologetically as he looked at everyone who was there.
As expected Randy Anie and Robert were all there, the thing that surprised Dan was seeing Barry there with them.
"Barry you want to follow us too." Dan asked Barry withal smile.
"Y... Yes I want to go with you sir, if you let me I mean" Barry said wig trembling voice.
"Of course you can, old Frank are those all!" Dan said.
"Yes sir"
"Ok, lead the way then."
They then moved for a while before finding themselves in front of a dark tunnel, the tunnel seemed man made, it was two meters and half tall and a meter and half wide.
"This is the tunnel leading to the ships, it was dug by us and the blood power users, it is more than two km long and it leads straight to the cave where the ships are kept, it took us one year to dig, in that one year many people died because of exhaustion and hunger before we were able to finish it." old Frank said with a long sigh, then he returned to his sense and added as he looked at the people with him:
"Well that was a long time ago, let's get moving then."
The tunnel was dark and hummed, if it weren't for the blood baths that they had, maybe the weak bodied Anie, and the modern day Dan, wouldn't have been able to handle it, for Randy on the other hand, it would have been quite easy even without the blood bath, as no matter what world it was, soldiers always go through bad and horrible situations in their training, especially the elites.
They moved like that for a while, but even though the place was kind of creepy they forgot about it as they were talking and having fun while walking.
They soon saw a light in the end of the tunnel, Robert said after he saw it:
"It seem that we are finally there."
After leaving the tunnel they found themselves inside a big cave, the inside of the cave was huge it gave them a shock, especially to Anyie who never saw something like that before, the inside of the cave was lit using torches.
As the three, who were there for the first time, were looking around them with interest, lost themselves in the great scenery in front of them, they heard Robert panicked voice behind them:
"Wait isn't it supposed to be day already? why is it so dark, here where is the sun?" When he finished talking he looked at the others in panic but then he saw that the only one that was panicking was him, and that the others were looking at him calmly.

Once a prosperous and well-to-do city, Oar's Crest has fallen into depression and disrepair.

[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Author's Note: Dungeons are Bad Business (DABB) is a slow burn slice-of-life dungeon core litRPG citybuilder that's focused on the day to day experience of running a dungeon. There will be some action, but it won't be the focus of the story and Vee and his friends will usually overcome their problems with their minds and their pocketbooks instead of their weapons. Since I'm participating in the writeathon, I will probably be uploading chapters almost daily for the duration of the event. Thanks for reading!

How to have fun in an apocalypse (Rewrite)
After spending an unsavory amount of time in hell, our protagonist finally manages to escape the place that had kept him captive for so long... again. Unfortunately, even after plotting and planning for years, he ends up in a place not much different from the burning and agonizing Tartarus he once had to call home. Guts, blood, and carnage start to reign over Earth as soon as he set foot in it, much to his dismay. What use is it to cry over spilled milk, though? Tired of the monotony of endless torture, he steps into the world intending to have as much fun as possible. While others might try to raid the Orc Lord with as many people as possible, why not challenge him to an arm-wrestling tournament? The power of friendship will surely be on his side. Why hide from the big, bad wolf in one of your houses if wearing camo in plain sight should have the same effect? Now, making friends and going on adventures would be perfectly fine, if it wasn't for the fact that he hides a few more secrets than one might think at first. This is a complete rewrite! Due to being unsatisfied with the previous version, I have decided to work the story up, beginning from the older chapters! Version 2.0 includes: - enhanced writing and editorial skills - additional information and aspects to characters - minor deviation from storyline and improvements

Long Shadow
No destiny, no choice, no hope. Our protagonist, a coward summoned to a world meant for heroes; a new world with new rules and old cruelties. Join him on his adventures as he must deal with menus, monsters, and mysteries in this litrpg fantasy. Thomas Goodwill was an average boy with an average life, all that changed when he woke up in a new reality. Now, out of his depth, damn near out of his mind, he must learn to survive in a game-like reality with no reloads, checkpoints, or save scumming. He does, however, have a drunk snake. Thank you for reading my first story, hopefully, the first of many to come. This will be my main story and is meant to help me practice and hone my skills as I slowly produce more complex ideas. It's a litrpg in which I want to only lightly focus on the mechanics as I don’t want to pad out the word count with math and number tables and while I want to add a few of my own twists here and there, overall I’m going to keep this story close to generic as possible so that I don't let my inexperience lead me into a corner. Thanks again to all willing to leave a review or some constructive criticism, without you I'd never improve. Unfortunately, Cover art is by me.
