And the same box that was in the straw or the wooden house appeared in front of me as I looked inside. The bottle looked the same as the mana potion, but instead of it being blue, this potion was yellow.
The reward that I picked was 'Elixir of Agility' as I felt that would benefit me the most right now.
I opened the lid and drank all the liquid. This potion had a very sour taste like lemon, and it did not taste as good as the mana potion. I don't know why I was comparing the taste, but this agility potion tasted way worse.
I felt an intense energy enveloping my body, and after a minute, I felt refreshed. I looked at my status window.

What the f*ck, it increased my base agility by 10! At the same time, I also noticed that I reached level 13. Which gave me extra stat points.
I quickly added my extra stat points to see how strong I had gotten.

After I looked at my status window, I almost passed out. This was so high!
A new feeling of motivation ignited inside my head. It was very addicting to increase your stats.
F*ck the break; I could always take it later. The reason I snapped before was that I wanted to show that I was strong and that I had worked hard to get to that level.
That's why I didn't like it when they said the wolf was weak.
Ensure your favorite authors get the support they deserve. Read this novel on Royal Road.
But because my stats were increasing so quickly, I really didn't care if other people thought I was weak. This surprise was much better than what the break would have given me.
Nevertheless, the advice Park Jihye gave me was still very good. She was right that I wasn't serious about each single regression. Therefore, I treated people badly, and that was the reason I felt so horrible.
Taking a break was just me trying to let some steam off, and these few days were more than enough. What I want to do now is clear this floor as fast as possible.
On that account, I was going to see how far I could go with this regression. Something that I couldn't do last time because I snapped.
I scanned the field to see everybody in shock at what happened. Well, I would also be surprised if I saw a monster appear in the field you thought was safe.
"Don't worry, it's dead now".
Slowly, people started to get further away from the forest and into the field. But they still didn't want to get too close to the dead wolf.
But as I looked at the wolf on the ground, I realized that I couldn't just let it rot here.
I went to the group of four idiots who woke up because of the wolf. I know I told them to sleep, but how could they sleep when a strong monster appears out of nowhere?
Well, luckily, they didn't escape. Even if they wanted to, I don't think they had the energy to escape.
Grabbing the hoodie of the guy with tattoos on his face, I dragged him over to the corpse.
"Wait, what are you doing? Are you finally going to kill me, you monster?" He shouted while being dragged by me.
I dropped him next to the wolf.
"Burn it; don't leave any traces". I said in a commanding tone, leaving no room for argument.
He quickly used his fire skill on the dead wolf. But it was very slow; luckily, one of the elderly people wanted to help and came to use his fire skill to quicken the process.
While they did that, Park Junsu and his group finally entered the field.
He noticed us flaming the wolf, and he approached me and asked,
"What happened here?"
I quickly explained my battle with the wolf. And at the same time, I also explained how new monsters would appear instead of the normal goblins because of the announcement.
"I see". He furrowed his brows, indicating that he was deep in thought.
I left him to think, as he would probably make the same plan as last time.
In that sense, he was very reliable. But as I looked around, I was happy that everyone survived again, and I didn't have to run into the forest to find the elderly people again.
"The wolf will not burn away, no matter how much I try". The guy with tattoos came to notify me.
I looked at the dead wolf. It was still intact, other than being completely black because of the fire.
'These guys are probably not strong enough yet'. But it was probably hard to completely incinerate something, especially since he was only at a low level.
"Just forget about it and go back to your group". I answered him.
Just like last time, people started to enter the field from the forest. It quickly filled up, and Park Junsu made the same announcement as last time.
He talked about the danger of the new monsters and that we needed to group up in case another special appears again.
He got interrupted by the same person, and this time I did not get angry. Instead, I was surprised by something different.
"What do you mean that the wolf was weak?"
"Do you know who killed it? It was none other than our Hyung!"
"If you really think you are that strong, come and fight us; we will see how strong you are".
At the same time, fire appeared above them, creating a spectacular scene.
It was none other than the four idiots. They were defending me, but when did I become their hyung (older brother)?
The young man who interrupted got flustered by the immediate counter response.
It was nice of the four idiots to defend me, but if they thought this was enough for me to forgive, then they were truly idiots.
"Well, it doesn't matter now; the point is that we need to group up and stay alive. We need to set up camp here and somehow get the box with food and water that is outside the forest". Park Junsu took charge again.
Instantly, some people got confused.
"You could leave the forest?"
As soon as I heard that comment, I was speechless. Did they not try to leave the forest at all?
"Why do we need to go outside the forest to get the boxes when there are boxes in the forest?"
Another person interrupted.
I also found out that there were boxes with food inside the forest. But there were so few, and there were always some goblins guarding it.
"Because there are numerous boxes outside the forest filled with food and water. We can't just get a small number of boxes at a time. It's much better to get a stable supply of food".
They couldn't argue with that, and soon a plan was formed. The field will be the main camp, and combat groups will be formed to get food from outside the forest.
It was a good plan. If they went with this plan, the number of deaths that could happen would decrease significantly.
Because small groups would no longer be formed, instead, big groups would be formed to fight the elite goblins.
The question was: how big should the group be? Should there be multiple groups?
