Chapter 18: Veronica Retreat 4

Here it starts the fun of Veronica retreat! Sleep traps and monsters with magic appear in fourth floor, so get ready. Also you will find the hated hobgoblins, so as you can guess these floor will be filled with hobgoblins and their crafts! They are smarter, nastier and more depraved than usual goblins. But all of them hate two simple things, garlic and a special parfum called parfum of Dryad grass made out of the grass that you can find in the grass area, so you can use them on some of your party members to protect them. Do not use it on all party since then they will attack those you want to keep safe even with the parfum on.

The hobgoblins like almost all the monsters have an extermination quest. Extermination of Hobgoblins is an A rank quest due to its danger for all the party members since they can kidnap one. Of course, they will not be able to do any nasty thing with the party member since they are not really interested in adventurers but will try to use them to bring villagers to their nests. Also if this quest is forgotten, Hobgoblins will be able to start the event "Disaster of the Hobgoblins" that will cause a full attack on Balatraf to conquer it. The rewards are 200000 gold and 8000000 exp that is a lot for a solo player, literally it can send a lv 50 player to lv 65.

DEX: 20
AGI: 40

Bio:
This small gray colored monster is really fast and a bit smart. They have great accuracy, decent power and can resist well in a fight, but to make things worse is that if you leave them grow, eat and live well and hunt some adventurers they change and become other type of Hoboblins, depending on how they evolve they become a extremely serious threat to players.
Usually they hunt first the ones that can't be protected from their attacks because it is easier to kill them but a good Humanoid oil made of extracts(all oils are made of extracts at least, that later have other materials is another thing) should do the trick for killing them. Unlike Goblins, Hobgoblins have poisonous blood, not corrosive.
