Dominion of the Goblin Lord

Chapter 1: Reborn as a Goblin

In a certain dim forest!

"Get lost, you trash only fit to eat excrement!"

A loud shout and a shove snapped Li Meng out of his daze.

Looking at the group of ugly green creatures in front of him, Li Meng's pupils contracted.

They had slender bodies and green skin.

Not only were they ugly, but they also had big potbellies.

Although they had four limbs, their body proportions were extremely unbalanced.

Their ears were pointed, and their faces looked like clowns.

Their teeth were abnormally sharp, with astonishing bite force.

With one bite, they could tear off a large piece of meat from a wild boar's body.

Even bones could be chewed with a crisp crunch!

"What is going on?"

The creepy chewing sounds made Li Meng's scalp tingle.

How did he end up in this ghostly place after coming out of the bathroom?

Li Meng looked down at his own hands.

At a glance, he was shocked.

Also green, also skin and bones.

He... he had become a monster?

"What are these messages?"

When his gaze returned to the ugly green-skinned creatures.

Only then did Li Meng notice some information above their heads.

The digitized information gave a feeling of being in a game world.

[Name: Gobuda]

[Race: Goblin]

[Level: 4]

[Strength: 7]

[Defense: 4]

[Agility: 6]

[Magic Power: 0]

[Charm: 0]

[Luck: 2]

"Could it be that I've transmigrated to another world?"

The thought in his mind startled Li Meng.

He hurriedly forced himself to calm down.

Li Meng took a deep breath, and with a thought!

Sure enough, an existence in the dark responded to him.

A pale golden character panel appeared before his eyes.

Li Meng reached out to touch it, but felt nothing.

The character panel existed only in his vision.

[Name: Gobumeng]

[Race: Goblin]

[Level: 1]

[Strength: 4]

[Defense: 6]

[Agility: 5]

[Magic Power: 3]

[Charm: 0]

[Luck: 11]

[Devour: By devouring the flesh and blood of magical beasts, there is a chance to acquire their skills]

[Life Simulation System Activated]

[Current number of life simulations available: 1, can simulate life once per month]

[Current character level: 1, can spend 10 first-level magic crystals to exchange for an additional life simulation]

[Maximum number of life simulations per month is two]

[After life simulation ends, you can choose rewards based on the evaluation score]

[Would you like to start life simulation?]

Beside the character panel, there was also a log panel.

"Life Simulation System? Could this be my ability?"

Looking at the group of goblins voraciously devouring food in front of him, Li Meng showed a strange expression.

He felt a bit baffled by his current situation.

Since he was here, he might as well make the best of it.

Li Meng did not collapse because he was in an unfamiliar environment.

The instinct to survive made him quickly accept everything.

"Wait a minute!"

Now was not the time to simulate life.

The goblins in the forest were eating.

Although their voracious manner was a bit disgusting.

But Li Meng was almost drooling at the sight.

His body's instincts urged him to join the eating group.

But his human consciousness made Li Meng give up.

"Gobumeng, here, the intestines are delicious!"

At this moment, footsteps were approaching.

A goblin holding a piece of foul-smelling intestine walked over.

The intestine was bulging, with greenish stuff inside.

From a distance, one could smell a strong odor.

His name was Gobuda, a weak goblin.

"I... I'm not hungry!"

Li Meng stepped back repeatedly, swallowing his saliva.

Although the smell indeed made one want to taste it, like stinky tofu.

But Li Meng still couldn't accept it.

He turned around and ran off.

Gobuda looked puzzled at Gobumeng running towards the depths of the forest.

Didn't Gobumeng usually love eating intestines the most?

What was wrong today?

Gobuda wouldn't think too much about things he couldn't understand.

He tore off a large piece of intestine with one bite.

Chewing the intestine along with the greenish stuff inside, he swallowed it with a satisfied face.

On the other side, Li Meng, who had run into the depths of the forest, sat down under a big tree.

After pondering for a while, Li Meng accepted the reality of transmigrating to another world.

"System, start life simulation!"

[Life Simulation Begins!]

[You woke up in the forest and discovered that you are in a different world]

[You followed the hunting party back to the goblin lair]

[You met the goblin leader "Gobuba", and were awed by its strength]

[As a transmigrator with high ambitions, you are eager to become stronger. You think that devouring the flesh and blood of magical beasts to acquire their skills is a good way to become stronger. You left the goblin lair and headed into the depths of the forest]

[You discovered a Ground Dragon; its skills made you drool]

[Please make a choice]

[1. You charge out and fight the Ground Dragon]

[2. You feel weak and plan to set traps to kill the Ground Dragon]

[3. You have a boss; you ask Gobuda for help]

Which of the three options should you choose?

Under the tree, Li Meng fell into deep thought.

The first option was definitely not viable.

A Ground Dragon with magical skills was surely strong.

But with his small body, fighting alone was courting death.

The second option seemed feasible but was actually a big pitfall.

Without handy tools, traps weren't easy to dig.

Moreover, a bait was needed to lure the Ground Dragon into the trap.

Most likely, he would be the bait.

The risks were too great.

"Option three!"

Among the three options, only the third one had a chance of success.

[You chose to return to the lair to ask Gobuda for help. Gobuda punched you, telling you not to daydream. As a first-level earth-attribute magical beast, the Ground Dragon must be hunted with the combined strength of the entire hunting team. With just the two of you, it would be like throwing meat buns at dogs—no return]

[As a proud transmigrator, you were unwilling to do nothing. You cleverly flattered Gobuda, making the foolish goblin think he was very strong. Gobuda was persuaded by you. The two of you went into the depths of the forest]

[You engaged in battle with the Ground Dragon. You failed and returned to the lair heavily injured]

[The failed hunt made you very frustrated. You and your boss lingered in the lair, licking your wounds]

[Due to serious injuries, you couldn't grab food, and your injuries worsened]

[Gobuda died from severe injuries; his corpse became a feast for other goblins]

[Emitting a bloody stench, you became a delicious piece of meat in the eyes of your kind]

[One night, a group of goblins pounced on you. You died, ending a foolish and short life]

[Life Simulation Ends, Evaluation Score: 20]

[Please choose one of the following rewards]

[1. For every 5 points of score consumed, you can increase one level]

[2. For every 5 points of score consumed, you can increase 5 attribute points]

[3. For every 5 points of score consumed, you can increase 1 point of luck. Luck can increase key node options and end rewards in life simulation]

This death was too frivolous!

"It seems that the life simulation system predicts future lines; I can't make random choices!"

Li Meng thought to himself, showing a contemplative expression.

Although he died rather frivolously, it also made Li Meng understand more about the life simulation system.

Glancing slightly, Li Meng looked towards the goblins.

"This future line cannot be taken."

Life simulation is a prediction of future development directions.

His every move could change the future development direction.

If he followed the predicted future direction, the same thing would surely happen.

Although the first life simulation failed.

But it wasn't without gains.

At least Li Meng understood the ability of the life simulation system.

The rewards predicted by the life simulation system are ways to become stronger.

But more importantly, it's the predicted future line.

Predicting the future is equivalent to trial and error.

He can obtain some future information in advance, thus avoiding dangers.

The turning point options in the predicted future must be chosen carefully.

"Gobumeng, are you sick?"

Just as Li Meng was thinking about how to choose the reward, Gobuda walked over.

Looking at Gobumeng sitting under the tree, a trace of greed flashed in Gobuda's eyes.

A sick goblin was a piece of meat in the eyes of their kind.

Li Meng noticed the greed in Gobuda's eyes, and his heart tightened.

Goblins really deserved their reputation as ugly and savage creatures.

Barbaric and greedy, they'd eat any meat.

Even their own kind were just backup food.

"Consume all the score to add to strength attribute."

[Consumed 20 score, +20 strength attribute points]

Li Meng felt a warm current suddenly surge in his body.

His skinny body crackled.

His originally thin body swelled up a circle.

Feeling the power surging in his body, Li Meng grinned hideously.

He swung his fist and punched at the approaching Gobuda.

His fist landed solidly on Gobuda's face.

"Ouch!"

Gobuda let out a miserable cry, his body flying out.

He flew several meters before rolling to the ground.

"Gobuda, from now on, I'm your boss!"

Li Meng grinned hideously at Gobuda, waving his fist.

Gobuda, who was knocked to the ground, looked bewildered.

When he saw Gobumeng waving his fist, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.

He quickly got up, nodding and retreating.

Among goblins, strength is respected; whoever is strong is the boss.
