"Those wording describes the chieftain ability. I see, the reward for clearing the camp and killing the boss was his exclusive skill. Unfortunately, I'm unable to learn it."
Mylo reached out his hand, grabbed the book and placed it inside his inventory. He stood up and left the camp.
"That was a long fight; regrettably it wasn't as rewarding for me as I thought. I need to focus on levelling up. I can't leave the game until I at least reach level 20."
"The Goblin doesn't give enough experience points; I need to move further inside the Grove."
After travelling further into the grove, Mylo managed to hunt down a few goblins during his trip. Earning him a level and 220 silver coins.
"It actually took me two hours to level up one. Those experience points aren't worth my time. Why haven't I found any other monsters other than those green goblins?"
As he was contemplating his options, a sudden scream could be heard a few miles away.
"CLERIC, HEAL ME!"
"…!?"
Mylo stealthy walked towards the voice, hiding himself behind a bush. He saw a group of players hunting what seemed to be a bigger version of the green goblin. They had a similar size to the goblin chieftain he fought a few hours ago.
"SOUTH CLEARED!"
"OKAY, HELP US CLEAR THE REMAINING ONES."
"COMING!"
"THOSE HOBGOBLINS GIVES MORE EXPERIENCE POINTS BUT ARE MUCH HARDER TO HUNT THEN THE GOBLINS, PAY ATTENTION AND DON'T DIE!"
'Hobgoblins!' mylo felt relieved to finally find a hunting target. It looked like the group of players were power farming the area and wouldn't let any player that wasn't part of their party to gain experience points.
"Let's look around for other Hobgoblins, since there are some here there are bound to be more elsewhere."
***
"…"
"WHY IS THERE PLAYERS EVERYWERE!"
"Dude why are you screaming… you're not alone here."
"…sorry."
"Also, there are a lot of players here because it is one of the best farming areas to reach level 25. Everyone here wants to reach level 25 before the PvP event starts."
"No wonder. Thank you."
Mylo left with a disappointed expression. He couldn't leave the gorge and farm else were, that would waste a lot of his time and there was a chance that other players were also farming other areas similar to the gorge.
"Should I join one of the parties?"
"Forget it, I hate partying up. I'll stay true to my solo adventure."
*Splash*
*Splash*
"Huh?"
"What's up there?"
Mylo was currently walking along a river path. Over a rocky ledge into the plunge pool below was a waterfall. At the ledge was a group of players fighting a group of hobgoblins. Being too close to the river's edge, a player accidentally pushed down the hobgoblin he was fighting off the ledge, making it fall down into the pool of water he stood on.
"SHIT! DID ANY OF YOU GUYS GET EXPERIENCE?"
"NO"
"NO"
"I GUESS HE SURVIVED…FORGET IT. LET'S HUNT ANOTHER ONE."
Mylo could hear the echo of their voices, and from his understanding the hobgoblin managed to survive the fall.
"He must be low on hp. Might as well get the experience from killing him."
Mylo started walking toward the hobgoblin's body, until it suddenly rose from his spot and ran away from Mylo.
"Huh? Where is it going?"
The hobgoblin started running towards the waterfall rather than heading inside the forest.
"Is he in a confusion state?"
But to Mylo's surprise the hobgoblin disappeared inside the waterfall instead of hitting a wall.
"Don't tell me…"
Mylo walked towards the waterfall and to his surprise a sudden notification appeared in front of him.
['Discovery of the Undiscoverable' has discovered a hidden dungeon 20 meters from your location]
"A HIDDEN DUNGEON! HA!"
"This is my second hidden dungeon. The first one was the wolf's den, which allowed me to gain a lot of good stuff. There's bound to be a good thing inside as well."
Mylo ran sloppily in the water, directing his way towards the waterfall.
[Hidden dungeon discovered 3 meters from your location]
He slowly covered his head with his arms and pushed his way through the rushing water. What welcomed him behind the curtains of water was a deep, obscure and narrow cave.
[Congratulations! You are the first to discover the dungeon: 'Bat's Den']
[Experience and items dropped will double for the next 24 hours while inside the dungeon']
[Time remaining until buff expires: 23:59:57]
"YES!"
"But why is it another den? Are all hidden dungeons a den? First a wolfs den now it's a bat's den?"
"Whatever, no need to think too deeply about it. At this point I'm pretty much guaranteed to reach level 25."
"I wonder how far the hobgoblin went."
"Anyway, time for some power farming!"
