The Lizardmen, although possessing high potential, have individuals like Bai Ling who are rare exceptions as mages.

Just by looking at Bai Ling, you can tell she's an anomaly.

As long as Goblins don't die, evolving into Goblin Soldiers is not a problem.

Lizardmen, on the other hand, don't have such evolution.

They can only enhance their strength through physical training and combat skills.

Goblins, however, can grow stronger by consuming food.

The former has a high baseline, while the latter has a high ceiling.

When Li Meng arrived at the straw hut, the sounds of battle were gradually fading to the west.

The Lizardmen around the hut had been completely cleared out.

Goblins were sweeping through the entire tribe.

Looking at the ground around the hut, layers of Lizardmen corpses were visible.

"Uh-oh?"

Benben, standing in front of the straw hut's door, was troubled.

The hut was too small for it to enter.

Looking down at the boss who had arrived beside it, Benben pointed at the hut.

Li Meng grinned and patted Benben's leg.

"Benben, leave the rest to me, your boss."

Glancing at the open door of the straw hut, Li Meng smirked wickedly.

For months, he had been resisting the urge to procreate.

Tonight, he decided not to resist his body's primal desires any longer.

With that, Li Meng swaggered into the straw hut.

He had seen Bai Ling run into the hut earlier.

Her mental state had collapsed.

Having always held a high position in the tribe, she had never experienced death.

This tale has been unlawfully obtained from Royal Road. If you discover it on Amazon, kindly report it.

How could she know the terror of it?

"You... you stay away!"

The straw hut wasn't dark.

Moonlight spilled through the skylight, slightly dispelling the darkness.

Inside the hut, Li Meng saw Bai Ling curled up in a corner.

"Those young Lizardmen died because of you. Do you want the women and children to die because of you too?"

Bai Ling's face froze, staring blankly at the approaching Li Meng.

Li Meng stood before Bai Ling, looking down at her.

Reaching out, he grabbed Bai Ling's hand.

Then he forcibly pinned Bai Ling beneath him.

"Live with this guilt. As long as you live, your people can live too."

With a sinister grin, Li Meng tore off the beast skin covering Bai Ling's chest.

The twin peaks, resembling those of a human, were exposed to Li Meng's eyes.

Li Meng gazed greedily at Bai Ling's chest, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

He had thought Lizardmen were oviparous, but it seemed he was wrong.

Lizardmen, like humans, were viviparous; otherwise, they wouldn't have these two peaks.

Bai Ling didn't resist, staring blankly at the round moon.

She let the ugly Goblin tear off her beast skirt.

Before long, a suppressed scream echoed in the hut.

What followed were grunts and groans.

Under the full moon, the swamp was anything but calm tonight.

Two hours later, the noisy White Scale tribe gradually quieted down.

In the darkness, the sound of chewing echoed throughout the tribe.

After hours of fighting, the Goblins were ravenous.

Big and small Goblins climbed over the corpses, gnawing at them.

The thick scent of blood gradually enveloped the entire tribe.

The chewing was loudest around the largest straw hut.

Many Goblins greedily devoured the Lizardmen corpses.

Not far away, the Lizardmen women and children watched in terror as the Goblins feasted on their kin.

"Ah!"

At that moment, a scream suddenly came from the straw hut.

This caught the attention of the Goblins feasting on the Lizardmen corpses nearby.

With blood-stained mouths, the Goblins looked up at the straw hut.

In the Goblins' eyes, the boss emerged from the doorway.

He held a thick white tail, tearing off a large chunk of meat with a bite.

"Hmm, not bad!"

The flavor of the meat surprised Li Meng.

Bai Ling's tail meat was tastier than any meat he had ever eaten.

It was chewy, with a faint milky aroma.

[Devour skill activated, acquired skill "Heart Speech"]

The system's notification made Li Meng grin.

For Bai Ling to survive, she had to offer her tail to him.

Otherwise, Bai Ling had no choice but to die.

Lizardmen could regenerate their tails, so losing it wouldn't affect Bai Ling much.

In at most half a year, Bai Ling's tail would be as good as new.

Standing at the doorway, Li Meng continued to savor Bai Ling's tail.

Bai Ling's other skill, "Ice Element Control," was a valuable asset.

If one tail wasn't enough to acquire it, he would wait for Bai Ling to grow a new tail and continue eating.

[Devour skill activated, acquired skill "Ice Element Control"]

Before he had even finished half, the system's notification appeared again.

"Not bad luck. Here, a reward for you!"

Seeing how quickly he acquired another skill, Li Meng was in a good mood.

He casually tossed the tail to a nearby Goblin underling.

The nearby Goblin underlings scrambled to grab it.

Looking up at the full moon, Li Meng squinted.

With the lessons from the simulated life predicting the future, Bai Ling couldn't stay in the White Scale tribe.

If she stayed, she would 100% betray him.

Li Meng didn't believe that after being with him, Bai Ling would fall in love with him.

Such things only happened in illogical novels.

He was a Goblin, a creature despised and hated by all races.

Bai Ling would only see it as a disgrace and wait for a chance to take revenge.

"Who cares?"

A hint of disdain flashed in Li Meng's eyes as he reached out to grasp the moon.

As a Goblin, Li Meng wouldn't do anything good in the name of being a Goblin.

Since Goblins were despised by all intelligent races, he would use this body to trample on the pride and dignity of those races.

"No matter who you are, watch closely. I'll make sure to torment this world!"

Li Meng grinned wickedly, clenching his fists.

His demeanor seemed to challenge some existence.

After a while, Li Meng lowered his hands.

Glancing sideways, Li Meng looked at Benben sitting in front of the straw hut.

"Benben!"

The sudden voice in his mind startled Benben.

Benben's massive body trembled, shaking its big head.

"It's me, your boss!"

Benben looked down at the boss beside it.

It extended a huge right hand to point at the boss.

"Yes, it's me!"

"Boss, how did you get into my head?"

Benben knocked on its helmet.

"I'm not in your head; I'm using magic to communicate with you."

"Magic? The voice in my head is magic?"

"Yes, it's magic!"

"Oh, I see. Benben understands!"

Li Meng sat down at the doorway, moonlight illuminating the two figures, one large and one small.

"Benben, do you have any family?"

"I do. Long, long ago, they and I lived in a cave, but one day they suddenly disappeared."

"Suddenly disappeared? Benben, did you look for them?"

"Boss, why would I look for them?"
