Chapter 3
After some gagging Oliver slapped himself in the face, mumbling "I killed bunch of chickens for dinner, this is nothing," after dry laugh
Oliver re-checked direction in which goblin village supposed to be.
'Lets see my progress' thought

'Shouldn't be that hard right?' Oliver started sneaking behind higher leveled goblin hoping for easy picking. When Oliver was 10 meters away from goblin, he stepped on dry twig breaking it and alarming goblins. Rushing in to attack only grazing goblin as it quickly jumped backwards only to bump into second goblin.
Oliver noticing goblins lack of co-operation quickly stabbed foward to make his first goblin kebab. Stronger goblin seeing Oliver actions tried his best to dodge attack ending with second wound, but second goblin wasn't so lucky beeing piercer right through chest.
Healthy goblin used the moment to jump on Oliver's back and started to stab Oliver. Oliver quickly sprinted toward closest tree and rammed it back first. Goblin seeing attackers actions tried to jump off but wasn't fast enough and had his legs crushed between tree and Oliver.
\screeee\
Oliver walked toward goblin with his shield.
"Oh shut,"
\crunch\
\SCREEEEEE\
"UP"
\CRUNCH\
'I was hoping for one hit kill' thought Oliver and started walking toward first goblin and pulled the sword out.

'Maybe I can wait for some random goblin to come check the stench' thought and proceed to look for good hiding spot. After few minutes
Oliver found thick bushes around 60 meters away from deer corpse. After unsuccesful attempt to hide inside of a bush Oliver just sat on ground and started to listen surrounding.
Minutes passed, by 15 minute mark Oliver started to become impatient thanks to time limit on quest given him by system. Just as Oliver
started to stand up he heard ruckus made by group of goblins.

Oliver walked toward noises only to see 4 blue goblins that already started to continue green goblins work. 'Are they really that stupid?' Though while circling around blue goblins to check if they left any sentinels. Not finding anymore goblins Oliver focused on his last prey.

'Leader with Lv.4 and his goons at Lv.2' concluded Oliver, 'I already tested that they are to weak to do any real harm thanks to the armor, unless they try to poke me in the face of course.' thought and started sneaking behind goblin leader.
[Sneaking 0.1 -> 0.2]
15 meters away from leader, Oliver wasn't noticed at all, after closing in another 5 meters goblins still didnt notice him. 'Is
\screeeeee\ \CRUNCH\
Other goblins hearing scream of their companion and crunch of broken bones instantly looked towards their leader only to see giant removing sword from their leaders corpse. Oliver feeling cocky enough just started walking toward closest goblin preparing another strike, after quick game of whack a goblin, there were now laying 6 goblin corpses around dead deer.

"Hey, quick question. Why does goblins dont run away from me?"
"Those critters are as bloodthristy as they can get, only shamans or rare variants are smart enought to think about retreat when needed."
"So good starting monster,"
"If not for armor you would die twice in less than an hour from start of trial"
"I get your point, I'm going to value my armor as if my life was depending on it."
"...."
In silence Oliver kept walking for 15 minutes when Oliver finally noticed that something was wrong.
"Hey... Why it is so quiet in here? No birds no bugs, only sounds of wind in leafs"
"It's artificial forest, no point in making birds and bugs if it is going to be deleted after you leave."
"What about that deer?"
"I bet my beard that it was already dead before goblins found it."
After short talk Oliver finally found resemblance of a village vithout any kind of wall.

Oliver checked time, after a thought he looked for highest tree near him. Best tree he could find was 30 meters high and 1,5 meters in diameter. Simply by grabing bark Oliver started climbing up, thanks to his new strenght he didn't need to look for hand hoolds simply tearing up chunks of bark to make room for hand and legs later on. After climbing 20 meters Oliver stepped on branch to get better look on village near him. Seeing only 7 green goblins in the village, too far away to use
"Why I didn't saw any goblin women or kids?"
"New born goblins need less than month to mature and goblins born only as a male."
"Do you mean what I think?"
"If you think that goblins capture other females then yes and it doesn't even have to be humanoid female."
"They just dropped to lowest position on my list"
"Not only yours, they are one big plague"
"Why I did not see any captives?"
"Same thing as with random animals, no point of making it for 2 hours."
After Oliver got off a tree he started walking towards village. Goblins did not have any sentry, so Oliver could enter village unobstructed.
Oliver closed in on two goblins that were tugging some piece of worn out leather. Coming from between two tents Oliver quickly swiped one goblin from above the shoulder and used
\screeeee\
'After only an hour there is so big diffrence in dificulty' Thought Oliver walking toward screeching goblins preparing another
Goblins rushed at Oliver pushing eachother trying to be first to attack invader without regard for losing almost half of numbers in a span of minute. First
"Is there any way to quickly heal up?"
"Oh there are many, like potions, healing spells, burst of self regeneration."
"ANYTHING I can get now?!"
"Calm down! After Combat part end you will be patched up to full, now you can enjoin free
"FUCK and thanks." responded teary eyed Oliver.

Oliver added +1 to Str,Agi,Dex folishly hoping that he wont get hitted next time.
"There is no way I'll kill anything with this leg, can I leave now?"
"As long as you are not in fight you can leave anytime you want."
White doors simply came to existence and slowly opened by themself revealing white room. Oliver picked himself up and took his weapons and left throught door. Simply touching white stone made pain go away and Oliver could stop dramaticaly limping.
