he was brought to a forest. he was surprised to see other people there 3 males and 1 female , Richard silently observed them there one of them was an Asian man with short black hair that
looked like he just got out of college.
the other was a balding middle aged man with a huge belly he had that nice old man vibe radiating from him that made you feel like apraching him.
the last guy looked like your stereotypical gangster he was bald at least 6 feet tall and muscular, he seemed to be in his late twenties both his arms full of tattoos and the ugliest mug he had ever seen second only to the goblin he fought earlier.
the only female in the group looked seemed to be in high school or a university freshman she had short brown hair freckles on her chicks and a huge pair of melons. they were all wearing some sort of makeshift leather armor an also had a weapon the asian kid had what seemed to be a dagger the middle aged man a rounded shield the big breasted girl a staff and the gangster looking man a huge sword and examining himself Richard also noticed he was wearing a leather armor and had a short sword which looked similar to the one he tried on the goblin but this one wasn't rusted.

it seemed everyone received the same message.Everyone sluggishly looked at eachother and Richard could clearly see the desperation in their eyes caused by the system's announcement
the middle aged man was the first to break the eerie silence that hung over the group
"hello i'm dave and my maximum stat is constitution, as you have all heard we are stuck in this place until we find the exit to the next floor we should all work together, it will maximize the chances of us getting out of here alive united we stand divided we fall,m we should start off by introducing ourselves and naming our highest stat"
everyone looked at the middle aged man in silence, in fact Richard agreed with this man, he wanted to quickly get out of this hellish place and find his brother.the Asian boy was the first to speak up
"my name's Shen and i'm 23 years old my highest stat is speed. i agree with Dave if we all work together we might have a chance at surviving"
following Shen's introduction , the gangster looking like man was the next to introduce himself
"the name's Orlando,my highest stat is strength "
Orlando made his introduction short and quietly leaned against the tree with his armed crossed looking as if nothing in the world could faze him.Richard was the last one to introduce himself
"Richard, i'm 17 my highest stat is strength too"
everyone then turned towards the shy looking high school girl which quickly hurried to introduce herself
"i-i-i'm Emily i'm 18 and my highest stat is intelligence" the attention seemed to have flustered her
"OK everyone now that we all introduced ourselves lets decide on our roles" the middleaged man quickly organized everyone based on their capabilities.
"Shen you will be the scouter, you will stay 20 feet ahead of the group and warn us about any incoming enemies"
"i'm not sure ill be able to do that,i passed the evaluation by chance and those out lander creatures frighten me"
shen timidly anounced to dave who replied with
"no matter, i guess you will join richard and orlando here in the attack squad , emily will stay behind to check on our rear and i will be leading since i have the highest constitution i will be able to defend attacks better"
Dave put everyone in formation brandished his shield and led everyone north.
