Chapter 43
I would probably never fell asleep in normal circumstances, but because of how tired I was in the end dream overtook my consciousness. I had many nightmares of wolves ripping apart my body, and woked up several times, just to drift away soon after.
I finally woke up sometime before sunrise. It was grey around me. My stomach demanded food with incredible stubbornness and rudeness. Growling at me like a mad dog. So I crawled out and filled it nicely with some raw carrots, bread, and a bit of beef jerky. The bread was getting stale pretty quick, so I knew that I should eat it first.
After the meal, the hunt began. I had no groundbreaking ideas of how to fix the issues. Just a very simple one that could, or could not work. I just wanted to reduce running on my side, by leading wolves out of their territory a bit. Let them chase me, but not group up.
It looked promising at first, but in the end, I was unable to prevent them from gathering and had a tough battle with them. I got 32 more crystals but was yet again very, very tired. I came back to the cart and started heading closer to the wall. I camped just beside it.
This time I slept like a baby, and after a short breakfast, was on my way to goblin\'s territory. It took me a whole day to see the first group of green midgets, and I slaughtered them pretty quickly earning 3 more crystals. Then I started to actually head back, and after around an hour of traveling, I set up my camp. I found some nice bushes, cut them with the knife, and made a shitty fence with them, some branches, and small trees. Made simple bedding, ate, and at last went to sleep under the cart.
The first nights were sleepless. I was afraid to get killed by some goblins roaming the forest. I had no idea if they were going back to their lair after dark, or kept walking around. Time with no incidents and exhaustion eventually did put me to sleep.
The next four weeks I spend hunting goblins. Every day for at least twelve hours, up to sixteen. I managed to earn a pretty nice number of 2648 goblin crystals during that time. When all the food was gone I headed back to see how everything has changed, sell my score, and make myself stronger. I needed more power to be able to hunt wolves.
The last day ended with 22 685 points on my account, 2651 goblin crystals, and 97 wolf crystals on the cart.
