READ NOVEL ONLINE Chapter 3: First floor
Ryan killed all the goblins he can find in the way. The route is full of goblin's corpses with their mana stones taken out. Ryan's dagger is also damaged and broke, but he got more, as he moved forward the goblins also increased in number along with their level. After killing them he got nice loot too.
Ryan didn't even feel exhausted. Gluttony is amazing, consuming the soul fragments and the part of the power left in body didn't make him tried at all. The more he killed, the more he felt stronger. He looked at the goblins ahead and sighed. Moving forward he sliced the goblin's throats and dodged the darts while killing the scout goblins too. Their levels are not small. Each of them are more than level 6 at the least. As he killed them all he took a look at his status.

Ryan looked ahead and saw smoke in the distance. Intrigued he goes there and hid in the bushes while silently killing the goblins hiding there. He saw a settelment of goblins. Ryan saw a goblin more taller and stronger among the goblins. He is holding a staff and has drawings on his body.
That must be a goblin mage or hobgoblin. He don't know, maybe he can also be goblin chief too. What's dangerous about these three goblins is their ability to command other goblins and their desire to reproduce. They capture female awakeners and use them for breeding.
Many thought the tower was just like a video game at first but they didn't expect the real life scenarios will occur here. Especially the behaviour of monsters they thought dying is the worst kind of fate in tower but what worse is getting captured by monsters to be a breeding machine. That fate is something feared all awakeners, yes males too.
Goblins kill males but orcs have female orcs too. If you get captured you may have a change to escape that is if they don't dry your body by getting your seed. So all awakeners remember to kill themselves if a scenario of getting captured by monsters occur.
( Author's note : yeah, I know. Some of you may not like this. But many ignore the scenarios like this and think tower as a game. This a game that involves life, so bear with this )
Ryan looked at the goblin chief. He called goblin chief because he saw the locket on the goblin. The mark of goblin chief is the fangs necklace which it holds around his neck. That fang gives him boost in mana and let him use magic. It's an item that is useful for mages and used craft staffs and accessories.
Ryan snatched one of the torches from the settlement secretly. He waited for sometime until the goblins got out of the settlement. Then he started liting the settlement on fire. He used the fire to burn houses one by one while the goblins panicked and started putting out fire on one side. He moved to other side and let it burn.
Like this he burned the settelment and some goblins along with it. He killed the scout goblins around. The goblin chief sat in the middle of the ruined settelment with the remaining goblins. And to make the other goblins move he needs to use a bait. But what can be used a bait. Hmm, Ryan looked at the fire in his hand and smiled. He grabbed all goblin corpses and piled them up before liting their corpses.
Soon a big fire started and a smoke that released a stench appeared. Goblins has a habit, they wrestle for their territory and authority. If a goblin kills the previous chief or killed a bunch disobedient goblins they will burn them. It's the declaration of authority in the tribe.
Soon the stench and smoke reached the goblin chief and it roared. It sent out scouts to the direction of smoke while Ryan lurked in shadows and slowly killed the goblins off one by one. The goblin chief felt something is wrong and with roar he called his subordinates back. Ryan cursed when he saw this and intercepted all the remaining goblins. He used poison darts to kill few of them.
When they lunged at him he killed the remaining ones and looked at the shaking goblins remaining as he looked at them. Ryan is also not unscathed, facing so many goblins he got some scratches but not any major wounds. After killing them all he looked at the goblin chief, the mini boss or elite monster of first floor. Yes this isn't the true boss.
The true boss is elsewhere. Ryan moved to the settelment. At this moment only 4 goblins remained around the goblin chief and the goblin chief has the advantage of magic. Ryan took a deep breath. He took a look at his status :
