When opening the second door, I swallowed dry saliva.
The lighting was worse than in the first room as well as in the hallways, but I had no problem seeing where I was going.
Is it because of my perception stat?, I wondered.
I couldn't help but feel that my vision had improved greatly.
In the center of the room, I saw a monster that was slightly taller than the average adult man. Around it, there was a circle of six well-organized goblins, all of them were goblin fighters carrying rusty swords.
The First Floor Boss, who was in the center of the formation, had his body full of muscles, along with giant fangs and crimson eyes.
But the boss monster was fully equipped in steel.
It looked less like a monster and more like a dieval knight. Its helt, chest armor, and boots were made of solid steel.
Only its arms and thighs were exposed. In its hand was a giant axe.
I couldn't even imagine how much it would weigh. It was a brutal axe, which I probably couldn't lift even with two hands, let alone swing.
And he was holding it with one hand.
When the hobgoblin noticed , it opened its jaws and roared. From the force of its roar, long strands of mucus dripped from its jaw, sticking to its irregular, serrated teeth.
I knew it was stronger than a goblin fighter and the system had labeled it as Hobgoblin, a more powerful variant of the first evolution.
This creature was above my current capabilities, it was an F grade monster with unknown abilities.
I gripped the bone spear tightly, and swallowed while continuously watching the monsters. My throat was getting wet and thick drops of sweat ford on my forehead.
Although I felt anxiety squeezing my heart, my brain didn't stop working. The energy now flowing through my body was simultaneously transmitted to my arms, without reaching the bone spear, it was as if the energy wasn't enough.
Did I have to wait for them to make a move?
No, I shouldn't. If left alone, these creatures would soon gather, and that ant I would have to deal with enemies from the front and back at the sa ti. In that case, I might as well...
The first to attack wins the battle.
When I aid with the spear, the ones who moved simultaneously were the goblin fighters.
Just before moving, I regulated my breathing.
Let's do this, I told myself.
I had already adopted the correct stance and my eyes had regained their focus. I knew I didn't have much ti, so I didn't hesitate to activate the only attribute I possessed.
[The attribute: The Man Who Overca Adversity has been activated.]
Ti seed to slow down before my eyes due to the dramatic increase in power. My clothes and hair began to wave slightly as if caressed by a gentle breeze, before directly splitting the body of the goblin in front of with my spear. The weapon connected with such power that it divided the torso in two, turning it into fertilizer for the Tower.
The mont I made a decision, my left leg lifted off the ground forcefully while I extended my arms. A goblin quickly moved to one side and then, savagely, lunged forward. The monster was also closely watching my spear.
The spear would miss on that trajectory, no doubt. But I didn't just stand there doing nothing. As soon as I saw the monster dodging to the side, I changed my grip on the spear.
My attack changed from "Thrust" to "Slash".
The spear tip that attacked it suddenly traced a sharp arc and went through the goblin's throat. It felt like cutting through a hardened block of tofu. Seeing blood gushing from the wound, I quickly jumped backward; the claws that tried to ambush barely reached my waist and passed grazing .
The goblin's sneak attack missed by a hair; the monster slid across the ground before turning its body as if it were a drifting master, leaving behind claw marks in the earth.
Too bad that, when it tried to look at , a sharp object was already piercing its head. My spear was deeply embedded in the monster's brain. The monster's body shuddered as it collapsed.
I had taken care of two goblins in the blink of an eye, but I wasn't finished yet. I withdrew the spear, which was now dripping green blood, and spun like a sorsault and attacked.
The remaining goblin's open claws aid at my back and threw blood like a fountain into the air. The creature spun in the air a couple of tis before landing headfirst on the ground with a loud thud. It writhed like a dying worm, before finally going completely limp. I looked at the dead monster with an astonished expression on my face.
Suddenly, another approaching goblin rose with a jump with its claws ready to attack while opening its mouth. My vision was filled with giant jaws with blade-sharp teeth.
Crunch.
My bone spear pierced the goblin's mouth in the middle. I moved forward and drove the spear deeper. With the additional force of the goblin's attack, the bone went through its neck and protruded.
And when the companion that was at its side fell in an instant, the other one went to attack with its knife on my left flank, but just before reaching , I smashed my left fist into its face from above, shaking it in the sky. My hand's fist dug into the beast's skull, killing it instantly with a blow sufficient to bury its head in the ground. Skull fragnts flew around the area as the figure fell.
The collapsing beast also pushed backward. On both sides, two goblins charged with their knives in hand while I bent down to pull out my spear.
I observed that these goblins were a bit larger and more muscular. I pulled out my spear and cut through the body of a goblin that was passing at full speed.
I straightened up quickly. Another goblin attacked behind when my body moved to dodge the knife, ready to attack quickly.
Crack!
This ti, the goblin's forehead was pierced through. I gritted my teeth as I was pushed backward by the force of my attack.
Just as I expected...
Roar!
The armored hobgoblin let out a loud roar from behind and started running with its giant axe like a madman toward .
It was at that mont when my heart shuddered.
I crushed the incoming attack of a small goblin and took four quick steps backward. At the sa ti, the hobgoblin jumped into the air. The axe withdrew and then fell toward my head. At that mont, its eyes shone with a dangerous flash.
