Chapter 153: "Heart Words" Advances to "Word Spirit"
The female Lizardman raised her head and looked at her leader's ferocious face.
This was an order from her leader; she had to obey.
She leaned forward, stuck out her tongue, and licked the blood on her arm into her mouth.
A strange scene occurred.
Hei Nana only felt a warm current rushing to her wound.
The four bloody holes on her arm began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Within just a few breaths, the holes had completely disappeared.
This miraculous scene left Hei Nana with an expression of disbelief.
She never thought her leader’s blood would possess such abilities.
This was too magical!
"Stop standing there in a daze. Go back and rest."
Li Meng reached out and slapped the female Lizardman's plump buttocks.
Hei Nana, embarrassed, turned around and entered the house.
Watching the curvy back of the female Lizardman, Li Meng grinned.
The scales on her waist and hips were still very smooth.
Although they weren’t as delicate as the Dark Elves, the touch wasn’t bad.
Li Meng turned around and sat back on the steps.
"Bring Gobu Sheng to see me!"
A Goblin guarding the door quickly ran into the depths of the forest.
The day for exchanging intelligence with the Theocracy was approaching.
Whether they could avoid the Theocracy's surveillance line depended on this intelligence exchange.
"System, start life simulation!"
The previous future line had already been altered.
Li Meng originally intended to simulate life again once the cooldown was over.
Stolen from its rightful place, this narrative is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.
However, returning to the Throne Tribe made him forget.
But now, it wasn’t too late.
[Life Simulation Begins]
[You sit at the entrance, thinking about what to do in the future.]
[You leave the Throne Tribe and head for the Black Mountain Marshlands.]
[You make contact with the agents of the Theocracy.]
[The Black Mountain Tribe's tribute arrives at the Throne Tribe.]
[At your request, the Throne Tribe enters a war-breeding mode.]
[One day, you receive news of the Demon Army’s invasion.]
[A Demon Army composed of Pigmen and Beastmen flows into the Goblin Forest from the Southern Wasteland.]
[One day, you receive news from the southern tribes that the Ratmen Tribe is launching a large-scale invasion.]
[The Demon Army is at the gates.]
[You challenge the Demon Army’s commander, "Iron Face," but Iron Face refuses, greatly demoralizing the Demon Army.]
[Faced with the heavily fortified Fortified Tribe, the Demon Army cannot break through.]
[Due to heavy losses, Iron Face chooses to retreat.]
Please make a selection:
1. Pursue the retreating Demon Army and eliminate their forces.
2. Do nothing and let the Demon Army leave.
3. Seek a truce with the Demon Army.
"Option three!"
Among the three options, the third was clearly the most reliable.
[You shout loudly and stop the Ghost Beastman "Iron Face."]
[On the barren land outside the tribe, you have a conversation with the Ghost Beastman "Iron Face."]
[From Iron Face, you learn some intelligence about the Southern Wasteland.]
[The Demon Army's main base is in the northern continent, and the Southern Wasteland is merely a forward base.]
[Iron Face agrees to cooperate with you to jointly defend against the threat of humanity.]
[The Demon Army retreats. Using your wisdom, you eliminate the threat from the east.]
[The southern tribes send urgent calls for help. Many tribes have been destroyed by the Ratmen Tribe's army.]
[You lead an army of 100,000 Goblins south to intercept the Ratmen Tribe.]
[In the vast forest, you lead the Goblin army in a decisive battle against the Ratmen Tribe.]
[The Ratmen Tribe is defeated and flees underground.]
Please make a selection:
1. Pursue the Ratmen Tribe into the underground tunnels and eliminate as many as possible.
2. Enjoy the fruits of victory and do nothing.
"Option one!"
The Ratmen Tribe loved to burrow tunnels.
The underground beneath the Goblin Forest likely had a complex network of tunnels.
If they allowed the Ratmen Tribe to flee underground, they would constantly harass the southern tribes with raids.
[You choose to pursue the Ratmen Tribe. The Goblin army floods into the underground tunnels.]
[You continue sending more troops into the Goblin Forest’s underground tunnels.]
[In a long pursuit, the Ratmen Tribe retreats westward.]
[Three years pass.]
[Life Simulation Ends. Score: 100]
Please make a selection:
- Each 10 points can be used to increase level by 1.
- Each 1 point can improve an attribute by 1.
- Each 20 points increases Luck by 1.
- Each 10 points upgrades the "Stone Bullet" skill by 1 level.
- Each 10 points upgrades the "Heart Words" skill by 1 level.
- Each 10 points upgrades the "War Stomp" skill by 1 level.
"What is the advanced skill of 'Heart Words'?"
Li Meng had never upgraded "Heart Words" because level 1 was enough.
Other than communicating telepathically, he couldn’t think of another use for the skill.
"Upgrade 'Heart Words'!"
[You consume 90 points. 'Heart Words' skill level increases by 9.]
["Heart Words" has reached max level and automatically advances to "Word Spirit."]
"'Word Spirit'? What does it do?"
With a thought, Li Meng opened his character panel.
[Name: Gobumeng]
[Race: Goblin]
[Level: 35]
[Strength: 9467]
[Defense: 9146]
[Agility: 4747]
[Magic Power: 2399]
[Charisma: 0]
[Luck: 11]
[Devour: Has a chance to obtain the skills of devoured monsters.]
[Iron Body: LV5 (Strength +5000, Defense +5000, Agility +2500)]
[Wind Blade: LV1]
[Physical Regeneration - Undying Body: LV2]
[Word Spirit: LV1]
[King of Ice Elements: LV1]
[Mad God: LV1]
[Limb Reinforcement: LV6 (Strength +300, Agility +300)]
[Elemental Affinity: LV1 (Magic Power +1000)]
[War Stomp: LV1]
[Stone Bullet: LV1]
At the moment he opened the character panel, Li Meng understood what "Word Spirit" was.
"Word Spirit" was a mental skill.
It imbued words with a hypnotic magic that compelled belief.
Like hypnosis, it could even alter someone’s memory.
It could implant nonexistent memories directly into someone’s mind.
Unless they were mentally immune, like Benben, they would struggle to resist its influence.
"This is perfect for testing on Vanessa!"
Li Meng grinned. Just as he was about to stand up—
Gobu Sheng came running from the depths of the forest.
"Boss, Boss, you called me?"
The Goblin ran up to his leader with a flattering expression.
"Prioritize building cave dwellings. A group of female Lizardmen will arrive soon; they need housing."
Based on the timeline, less than two months remained of the six-month deadline.
Soon, the Black Mountain Tribe's tribute would depart for the Throne Tribe.
Proper housing must be arranged before the female Lizardmen arrive.
Gobu Sheng’s eyes lit up, and he nodded repeatedly.
