Goblins also possessed a intellect closed to that of humans.
After killing the first scout, Kent spend the time hunting down scouts back and forth, annihilating every single goblin he passed throughout the way.
After an hour and two Kent arrive near a clear blue transparent river.
This time Kent sat beside the river seemingly meditating.
His goal is to reach this river that posed a great deal of magic essence. Kent decided to close his eyes and begin to meditating. During this time he thought about many things, his previous life, the and revenge. Much had been sacrificed for him to reach his past achievements. Many of those he loved had died and withered away, he had grown tired and weary of such a lonely, but his instincts keep on telling him to bot give up and moved forward forcing him to try harder to lived.
Unknowingly to him, Kent began to circulate magical essence according to the method of the Heavenly Void Forging technique he originally created. Immense amount of energy from the atmosphere was drawn towards his body as he unconscious refine the energy, remaining in a completely serene state, unaware of the phenomenon he was causing.
A few minutes later Kent opened his eyes feeling the incredible power flowing through his body. He was astounded as he mana within him had increase.
"The Heavenly Void Forging Technique is really something else." Kent is satisfied and proud to himself creating his own technique.

Kent had spent the following days roaming around the Mist Forest, clearing it from monsters and scavenging resources. His strength is currently sufficient and might be the highest level ever been, if he met a large number of goblins in a group, Kent would do a kiting strategy slowly cutting their numbers.
He had been doing constant grinding all this time without much thought. It got boring at some times even though the fight was real and the danger of death was there. But since he had been fighting the same type of goblin scouts, some snakes or sometimes challenging another Wither Treant's, he practically memorized all their moves.
Kent didn't got worried about the quest Albert the guard captain gave him, as it didn't have a time limit. At the same time Kent venture through the forest, picking herbs, Kent perform multitude of things, like advance quest targeting. Completing quest before requesting one.
One's he return to town, Ken only need to find the appropriate person to gain the rewards he had work for the last days.
After a few days of venture within the mist forest, his now near the middle zone a Level 25 area, a forbidden place for every player at the current stage.
He's goal is to gather more information, the more information and intel he possessed the more rewards he might gain after returning. Even do Kent is from the future, he isn't omnipotent, Kent only have fragments of information so gathering information is still needed.
After a few minutes of venture, Kent reach a land of dark trees. Cold winds blew within the Middle zone of Mist Forest It was a place daylight never reached. Dark tree's swayed as a chilling aura sweep the entirety of the middle zone.
Kent search through the surrounding, a distance houses can be seen like a small village at the middle of the forest.
Kent move stealthy on guard at any danger that might come, reaching the outer area lf the village, He notice that no single life can be detected within. Even after using [Perfect Navigation] no life signs was detected.
On the abandoned Village, Kent, with his newly equipped equipment's appearance and was currently standing within a tall wooden building, searching for some useful stuff.
Reaching the top of the building, Kent survey the village.
This Village is called the Abandoned Death Village, it is said that there was one's a massacre occurred here killing dozens of people turning them into undead beings.
Kent move from building to building seemingly searching for something.
Kent with his was currently standing within a wooden building that full of holes, searching for something.
"I've finally found it! Looks like the information wasn't wrong." After turning the place upside-down, Kent was able to obtained a bronze key from a wooden chest under a bed.
This time a monologue voice sounded.

"Bias-Bias one of the reasons why I hate unique quest, all of them are to cheap when it come to information"
The Key would lead him toward a secret passage that is directed to the secret underground area of the town.
After a few minutes, Kent was able to reach the building where a cellar is situated. This cellar was the entrance to the secret passage that led to the underground area.
The cellar was very dark, Kent could not make out a single thing within. His only option was to use a simple magic [Flame] to shine the way.
Anyone can used simple magic as long as they possessed the right knowledge and mana. As for other magic like advance magic and above some requirements is needed to be fulfilled, and this requirements isn't so simple one need money and resources making mage's a walking bankrupt.
He followed along the cellar's passage, advancing forward until he finally reached the large steel gates that led to the secret underground passage. At this moment, however, the steel gates were tightly sealed.
Using the key, Ken opened the steel gates.
What welcome his, another long dark passageway.
After only taking a few steps into the secret passageway, Kent discovered that his surroundings were littered with pearly white bones, some mice and insect's feeding off from the corpses, while the walls on both sides were filled with the scars that signify a battle of swords, on another side blunt and cracks was shown a magic battle had occurred one's here.
