Chapter 58: Chapter 57: Powerful Human Male and Female
Chapter 57: Powerful Human Male and Female
The next day, it was already noon.
In the dim forest, the sound of footsteps rumbled, and figures moved in a steady flow.
Hundreds of goblins were scattered throughout the forest, advancing in groups.
Amidst the many green-skinned figures, there was one particularly massive presence.
Benben moved through the forest like a mobile metallic mountain.
Li Meng, sitting on Benben's shoulder, yawned.
"System, start Life Simulation!"
The airship being shot down meant the future had already changed.
[Life Simulation Begins]
[You and the goblin underlings walk through the dim forest.]
[You return to the tribe and patiently wait for the appearance of the black-robed figure.]
[One day, the black-robed figure appears.]
[You obtain the ritual disc for summoning the Savage God from the black-robed figure.]
[You discover signs of Pigmen activity in the eastern forest and choose to ignore them.]
[As the Day of Rotation approaches, choose one of the following options:]
[1. Allow the Lizardmen in the northern marshlands to rebel.]
[2. Gather all goblins to intimidate the Lizardmen in the northern marshlands.]
[3. March into the northern marshlands, eradicate the Black Scales Tribe and Gray Scales Tribe, and kill all male Lizardmen.]
[4. Summon the Savage God.]
A trace of helplessness flashed in Li Meng's eyes as he sat on Benben's shoulder.
The future predictions provided by the Life Simulation were too vague.
The lack of details made it easy to miss side stories that could influence the future.
Every step had to be planned carefully, changing the future based on known information.
"What should I choose?"
Li Meng focused his attention on the four options.
Options 1, 3, and 4 were not viable.
Knowing in advance that the Lizardmen would rebel, he couldn't just ignore it.
If left unchecked, the combined male Lizardmen of the two tribes would number over a thousand.
This was a force that could not be overlooked.
The third option contradicted Li Meng's original intention of subjugating the northern marshlands' Lizardmen.
The fourth option was even less desirable.
He would have to be out of his mind to choose the fourth option.
"Option 2!"
[You gather all the goblins, and their sheer number intimidates the Lizardmen.]
[You travel with Bai Ling to the Iron Cavern.]
[The Day of Rotation arrives, and Bai Ling returns to the White Scales Tribe.]
[The Black Mountain Lizardmen army attacks but retreats without a fight, and Bai Ling is captured.]
[One day, an adventurer party appears in the forest near the Goblin Nest.]
[Gobu Tian is killed by the adventurer party, and the Goblin Nest is annihilated.]
[Gobu Di and Gobu Shi lead a goblin army to pursue the Black Mountain Lizardmen army.]
[You head to the southern bank to confront the adventurer party alone.]
[In the forest where the airship wreckage lies, you encounter the adventurer party.]
[You achieve victory, killing all the men and capturing two human females.]
[From the captives, you learn information about the human Principality of Illisis.]
[You catch up with the goblin army and lead them to continue pursuing the Black Mountain Tribe's army.]
[In a forest, you lead the Goblin Boar Riders to overtake the Black Mountain Tribe's army.]
[You defeat the Black Mountain Tribe's army and kill them all.]
[The Black Mountain Tribe, hearing of their army's annihilation, summons the Savage God Akuya in fear.]
[The Black Mountain Marshlands are polluted by the Savage God, becoming the Great Wasteland Domain, and all life is refined into Wasteland Slaves.]
[You retreat with the goblin army and return to the tribe.]
[Due to food needs, you teach the Lizardmen aquaculture techniques.]
[Your tribe thrives.]
[One day, a fully armored man appears in the forest near the Goblin Nest.]
[One day, he finds the Goblin Tribe.]
[On that day, you use swarm tactics to kill the man, but the tribe suffers heavy casualties.]
[One day, a woman appears in the forest near the Goblin Nest.]
[One day, she finds the Goblin Tribe.]
[On that day, the tribe becomes a sea of flames, and you die, with the tribe utterly annihilated.]
[As a transmigrator, no matter how cautious you are, you cannot escape being toyed with by the Goddess of Fate. Your efforts ultimately amount to nothing. Your life, however, has value, as it marks the beginning of the Goblin Forest's transformation into the Great Wasteland Domain.]
[Life Simulation Ends. Score: 60.]
[Choose from the following rewards:]
[Consume 10 points to increase level +1.]
[Consume 1 point to increase attribute +1.]
[Consume 10 points to increase Charm +1.]
[Consume 10 points to increase "Berserk" skill level +1.]
[Consume 20 points to increase "Iron Skin" skill level +1.]
[Consume 10 points to increase "Heart Voice" skill level +1.]
"So, taking out the smaller fry has brought the bigger ones?"
The final male and female humans were clearly powerful individuals.
Otherwise, the man wouldn't have required swarm tactics to defeat.
This suggested that the man was far stronger than him.
And the woman could annihilate the entire tribe.
Such formidable strength likely placed them at the pinnacle of human power.
"Could those adventurers have been relatives of the man and woman?"
Li Meng considered this possibility.
It was highly likely.
Otherwise, their appearance couldn't be explained.
"It seems destroying the airship triggered a chain reaction!"
Li Meng furrowed his brows, his expression contemplative.
If the airship hadn't been destroyed, would that adventurer party have appeared?
Without that adventurer party, the final man and woman wouldn't have been drawn.
"How can I avoid the worst outcome?"
Li Meng lowered his head, lost in thought as he sat on Benben's shoulder.
The system provided too few options.
Li Meng suspected that the frequency of options in Life Simulation was tied to his Luck attribute.
If the options appeared more frequently, he would have more future paths to choose from.
He wouldn't be stuck with one path until the end after making a single choice.
This time, however, his luck was decent, as there were three skill reward options.
"Choose to increase the 'Iron Skin' skill level!"
[Consume 60 points. "Iron Skin" skill level +3.]
Here it came—the familiar excruciating pain swept over him.
Sitting on Benben's shoulder, Li Meng's body crackled and popped.
His shin bones twisted out of shape, as if crushed by some force.
His face contorted into a grimace before being forcibly straightened.
After a while, Li Meng's body returned to normal.
Benben curiously turned to look at his boss on his shoulder.
When Benben looked over, Li Meng's transformation had already ended.
Li Meng lowered his head, gazing at his hands, and grinned.
He had grown stronger again.
Li Meng could feel the immense power hidden within his body.
At this moment, he finally understood why he was so confident before the black-robed figure.
With a thought, Li Meng opened his character panel.
