Chapter 14 An Encounter With A Founder Race

It has been how many days now since I have gotten to this world?....

I have lost count after engaging in what seems like an endless struggle for survival against the monsters.

My daily task comprises of me searching for a suitable hideout while fighting against wild dog's and praying mantis.

Yep.....,

So far so good, I have not come across a different specie of monster from the ones I am familiar with.

For me, this is good news as I already know how to handle them from day one.

Of course if I was attacked by two monsters at the same time, I will no doubt die,

Either it is two wild dog's against me or two praying mantis against me, or a wild dog and a praying mantis against me, or a praying mantis and a wild dog against me.

The outcome will still be the same, equating to my loss.

luckily for me, I have only been having a one on one encounter with them.

And Thanks to the daily hunting of wild dogs and praying mantis, I have managed to raise my level to nine.

As I thought, it was a good idea for me to use the mantis's claw as a weapon against my opponents.

Using my bare fist against my opponents did little to no damage against them,

But with the claw, I am able to pierce through the tough scales of a claw mantis and the fur of the wild dogs, what a smart decision I made.

It made it relatively easier for me to hunt.

There is something I have noticed after leveling up nine times,

when I was still a goblin Cub, I only required a hundred experience point to level up,

A single level one wild dog was enough to raise me up by a level, while a single level five praying mantis was enough to boost me up by three levels.

However, the result is no longer the same.

Now that I am a goblin kid, the experience point needed for leveling up has increased by times two of what is required as a goblin Cub.

Meaning I have to kill two level one wild dog just to go up another level and one level five praying mantis can only level me up by one.

I did expect something of this nature to happen,

With evolution, my overall stats increased by an additional hundred points,

It is only natural that the difficulty for leveling up will also increase.

My body's physical condition did increase with the level up,

Even without the body strengthening skill being active, I am now able to jump close to fifty seven inch high.

An impressive feat I must say, considering I was subservient to just crawling on two feet not too long ago.

The other good thing about this body is its adaptability function.

I might have lost track of how long I have been here for, I can say for certain that it has not been close to a month.

Yet after being in this world during that short time frame, I can feel that my body and mind have intertwined to become more adjusted to the living conditions of this world.

The darkness is now something I no longer fear but rather I embrace it, i have become a part of it.

I also do not easily accumulate as much fatigue as I used to as a Cub.

If there is any complaint I am having, it is the intake of only wild dogs and a mantis's flesh.

At first it was delicious but now, my taste bud is getting too used to it.

It would be good if i could get my hands on a better meat but that means I will have to face a new opponent entirely,

An opponent I have no idea of what their structure is or how they operate?.....

No way, the danger far outweighs the profit so for now I will stick to my usual dog meat.

I have been walking for about an hour now and have yet to come across a monster.

Is this place perhaps a safezone?....

Everything here look so familiar to the point that it is hard to tell which cave is which,

All I rely on to guide me through it is my sense,

With my senses, i can discern which cave is safe for me to go through and which is not.

hmm...,

While it is good that I have yet to come across any monsters, I also need to kill to eat.

"!!!!"

Is that...

That is definitely the sound of something washing off,

I hope it is what I think it is.

I rushed over to where the sound was coming from, and behold I found a stream.

without further thoughts of the stream being poisoned or harmful to me, I dived straight into the water and rolled my body in it.

Never in my wildest dreams have I thought I was going to miss to the feel of water on my body this much.

Oh water, sweet sweet water, thank you so much for all you have done for me, and forgive me for ever disregarding your existence.

Looking at my reflection in the water, I realized something,

I am one fucking hell of a scary monster.

Green bald head, dark eyeballs, with two fangs protruding out of my mouth and curved upwards.

No wonder i was able to easily chew through bones and raw meat with a cubs teeth.

I soaked myself and drank as much as my belly could fill before getting ready to depart.

It is nice that I have water but man shall not live on water alone, or rather Goblin shall not live on water alone.

I need to go find me some meat to sustain myself with.

Come to think of it, I have noticed recently that I have become more meat driven,

Like I am now obsessed to me eating meat.

Probably has to do with my body as a goblin,

With this body, I would not survive being a grass eater.

I should start heading elsewhere to look for food.

"gulpppp....."

"gulpppp....."

uhhh?....

There is someone else here apart from me?

Where?

Where are they?....

Damn it, my senses did not warn me of this.
