Chapter 52 – (52) We Have To Push Forward!
Inside were two items. The first was a quiver, Geth picked it up to use Inspection on it.
:Endless Quiver- Rare Item; This is a special item that can produce unlimited arrows. Once an arrow is placed inside, a copy can be drawn infinitely until a new type of arrow is inserted. Gives User +2 Agility.
Note: This item can currently only produce copies of normal arrows. Item will have to be enhanced to copy Mana imbued arrows:
Geth was dumbfounded. 'What an amazing item!' It would go to Filthy. He was someone that Geth could rely on, plus he had earned it.
The other item in the box was a Skill Card. He hurriedly picked it up to see what Skill it would give.
:Ring of Fire (50 MP); User slams weapon on the ground, causing waves of fire to spew in every direction.
Notes: Once this Skill Levels further, it can decimate many enemies within a wide range!:
'What an awesome loot box!' Geth no longer had any negative thoughts about the methods used to get this crate. It had been worth it.
He took the Skill Card over to Zolis, and the quiver to Filthy. Both of them thanked him profusely. He just waved them off, of course, he needed his team to be strong.
In return, Filthy gave him the Uncommon equipment item he'd gotten from his rewards. It was a pair of open-fingered gloves with Runes drawn on them.
They increased both Intelligence and Wisdom Attributes by five and gave another two points to Defense. Geth certainly wouldn't turn them down.
Zolis had also chosen the equipment option, hers was Rare. She'd received a breastplate that greatly increased both her Defense and Strength.
It looked like Hulk got a large buckler, the circular shield covered his entire forearm. It looked quite plain, but it was leaps and bounds better than taking damage head-on.
He'd offered the item to Geth, but he refused. According to Albus, all future options were chosen based on the way a person fought, along with their personality.
A shield would completely go against the strong body and mind that he was trying to build towards. Geth's priority was to control the battlefield. There was no better position than being a tank or healer for calling orders.
Hulk and both brothers had directly jumped to Level 15, even if they hadn't contributed as much as the others, they still received a 12-13x boost for the Level difference. Zolis and Filthy Leveled a couple of times as well.
'We need to farm until everyone reaches Level 20.' Geth thought. He asked Filthy to scout some of the small tunnels and both large tunnels while they waited for Harris to finish recovering from the shock.
He was to report back every half hour. If he didn't make it back, then the party would check the last tunnel he'd ventured into before proceeding.
After he'd left, Hulk went and sat by the brothers. Zolis walked over and grabbed Geth's hand, pulling him out of earshot of the others.
"Baby, do you think we'll be able to continue? Filthy and I should be fine, but I don't know if these guys can handle it." She asked.
"I thought the same, but the two of you were only Level 16 and 17 before the boss. Hulk said that he'd reached 16 just now, so the other two should have hit 15.
That major Level plus the new equipment will make a world of difference. The main reason I sent Filthy to scout was to locate the nest of Goblins that should be here.
The corpses in this room only numbered a couple hundred, there should be thousands. My goal is to power level everyone here to Level 20 before proceeding to the final Boss." Geth laid out most of his plan for her.
He didn't tell her the statistics Albus had come up with, but there should be two to three thousand Goblins in this Dungeon. The number was plenty to jump multiple Levels.
If they could find and slaughter them all, there was also a high probability of getting two to three Skill Card drops. More if luck was on their side.
"Okay, as long as you have a plan. I don't know these guys well, but I don't want to see them die from you being rash. They do have families waiting for them." Zolis reminded him.
Geth just nodded, ending the conversation there. His motives were to expand and help where he could. He couldn't do everything for them, they had to be strong enough to protect and sustain themselves once he left.
Every half hour, Filthy would come back and report. There were a total of 11 smaller tunnels. He'd had them all scouted within around 3 hours, Harris had long woken up.
Filthy was reporting in from the last tunnel. "So, every tunnel is a straight shot to the end, leading to small caverns.
Every cavern is filled with between 200-500 Goblins. If I had to guess, the total number would be around 4000. I didn't check either of the large tunnels."
"It's best if you didn't," Geth replied. "If you accidentally step into the boss room, the Dungeon barrier will lock you in, and you either kill the Boss or die."
Filthy nodded in understanding. "I marked the tunnels with how many Goblins were at the end of each."
Geth stood up and addressed the others. "Well then, it's time for us to take over the leaderboards!" He started laughing loudly while everyone else just stared.
The only thing they could see was his shoulders shaking with laughter as he walked down one of the tunnels.
There were 11 tunnels, Geth decided to take the routes with the least amount of enemies and they would work their way up. There wouldn't be a single Goblin left after this Raid was completed.
He could tell that Harris was following along a bit hesitantly. Even so, the man's wish to get stronger and his recent idolization of Geth's party had pushed him forward.
The room he was currently leading them to had around 150 Goblins in it. The majority were only Swordsmen, with very few Mages and Assassins.. It would be a good chance to boost the three men's confidence back up.
