You have entered a dungeon!

Because you are the first person to discover this dungeon you will gain 2x exp until you leave the dungeon or die, also A bonus will be given if you are the first to slay the boss without leaving the dungeon.

The inside of the cave is dimly lit by small bugs that glow a light shade of green. Perfect for a quick light, the interior of the cave is also decorated with bones and blood from the Goblins victims.

Man talk about dreary, but then the 99% realism isn’t for nothing. I continue past the entrance and the cave gets darker and darker. The tracks are broken in some places and the scaffolding looks as though it could give out at any minute. A bend enters my vision and sounds of growling and scraping can be heard.

I slowly move over to the corner and look past.

There is a group of 3 goblins together. Two are dressed in basic loincloths and have old jagged pickaxes in their hands. The other one has scruffy leather armour that's slightly too big for it and a makeshift spear in its hands.

It could be a problem facing all three at once.

I bend down and pick up a rock to throw to try and pull the aggro.

I throw the rock and it hits the one closest to me with the pickaxe. It glares over to where I am and roars while charging over. The other two are too busy minding their own business to even realise their friend ran off.

The little bugger is pretty stupid to leave his group, but it's better for me. It swings it pick at me and it scratches my arm over the scales leaving a light wound dealing -3 damage I counter strike it slashing it over its chest making it stagger. I kick it to the ground and I cut its neck watching it dissolve into a pleasing blue light. I gain 4% more xp to my next level. The other two are easy to handle considering i took out the two guards out the front just as easily.

Soon after they both dissolve into light and the one with the spear even dropped 3 coppers. My XP bar is at 17% now and I only lost about a quarter of my health but the regen is quickly taking care of that. If the rest of the dungeon is this easy then the boss should be a pushover too.

The cave is like a maze but the goblins put up effigies marking important areas. In each ‘room’ there are usually groups of 2-3 goblins which i take care of easily.

This continues for a little while and I notice the cave starts to open out a but. It's fine though- because goblins are pushovers. I turn the corner confidently and ready my weapon.

A few feet infront of me is a group- no a horde of goblins. There are 6 goblins right ahead of me and all of them are staring bullets at me, i am covered in a lot of goblin blood. Well. Shit.

No point turning back. I want that loot from the boss.

I ready my sword and face the first two that come for me. I slash the closest one of them over the eyes and a *blinded* status effect floats over its head. I quickly use this opportunity to wail on the other one and it quickly fades into light. The other one realises what's happened and shouts in rage quickly attacking me. The other goblins also take this opportunity to join the fray. “Sigh” They really don't want to give me a chance do they?

I quickly apply an enchantment to my blade and ready the poison claw on my elbow.

I stab the closest goblin to me with my enchanted blade and use my elbow claw to stab the goblin approaching from behind it goes in but the claw snaps off.

*-10 Claw Broken* *Poison Applied*

The first goblin fades into light and the other one clutches at the claw lodged inside of it. A damage indicator pops over its head *-1* every second. The goblin quickly succumbs to the poison without even attacking me.

The rest of the goblins are fairly simple but i’ve taken quite a lot of damage in the meantime. I gain 11 coppers, a jagged stone and my XP is half full now. I’ve lost over half of my hp, i should wait for me to heal. It takes about a minute for me to reach maximum hp again. I'm about to head off when suddenly a box floats past my vision:

Your Basic Regeneration has increased to Lv. 2

You now regen 1.5 hp a second

Oh amazing, that should help me speed up hunting because i don’t have to wait as long to regen my HP after fights. Also this is good for fights as it gives me more HP over the fight.

Well, either way I should keep going. I think i’m about to reach the end because the bone decorations are getting more intricate as i go along.

As i continue forward i encounter a couple more groups of goblins but the groups aren't larger than 4.

Suddenly a large archway enters my vision. Its old and decrepit but is covered in decorative bones and blood patterns. This must be the end of the dungeon, The boss should be past that archway.

Well, no time like the present. I wonder what special item it's going to drop. I can't help but grin at the idea of getting rare loot.

The inside of the chamber is arranged slightly like an arena. There's a larger-than- usual Goblin sitting in a throne and has a crown made of bones upon its head, a bone glaive sits in its hand and some heavily worn patches of iron hang off of its body.

I use identify to try and figure out what it is, it doesn’t look like a normal goblin thats for sure.

Hobgoblin (Leader) Lv. 3

A more advanced goblin evolution, it is larger and more violent and aggressive than a common goblin but has the same intelligence as a normal goblin and tend to lead packs of goblins to raid small villages and passing wagons.

Well, this should be interesting.
