Chapter 39 - Steel Skin

"The future should have changed, right?"

Watching the two people conversing not far away, Li Meng muttered to himself.

"System, start the simulated life!"

With nothing else to do, he decided to use this month's simulated life attempt.

[Simulated Life Begins]

[You lead the Goblin army to advance on the Gray Scale tribe]

[Persuaded by Bai Ling, the Gray Scale tribe chooses to surrender to you and is willing to act as an envoy to convince the Black Scale tribe to submit to you]

[The Black Scale tribe submits to you, and you successfully conquer the swamp]

[You lead the Goblin army back to the tribe with the spoils of war]

[Your tribe thrives, and the hunting area expands explosively]

[Bai Ling gives birth, and you have offspring with your bloodline]

[One day, a Pigmen tribe appears in the eastern forest, and you choose to ignore them]

[One day, a person in a black robe, whose face is indistinguishable, appears in the tribe and finds you]

[You obtain a sacrificial disk to summon the "Barbarian God" from the black-robed person]

[Please make the following choice]

[1. To gain powerful strength, you choose to summon the "Barbarian God"]

[2. You decide to seal the Barbarian God sacrificial disk, maybe it will be useful later]

[3. As soon as the black-robed person leaves, you smash the Barbarian God sacrificial disk]

"Barbarian God?"

A trace of doubt flashed in Li Meng's eyes, and he muttered to himself.

What is this thing?

Could it be some kind of summoning magic?

"Choose three!"

Something summoned that is related to a god must be ominous.

Li Meng wouldn't go for something that obviously has issues.

Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.

Compared to the second option, Li Meng preferred the third one.

[You destroyed the Barbarian God sacrificial disk]

[A large number of Pigmen are discovered in the eastern forest, and you choose to retreat]

[Goblins are spotted on the southern shore]

[A Lizardman army from the west arrives at the swamp]

[The Lizardman tribe in the swamp initiates a rebellion on the day of rotation, and Bai Ling betrays you]

[The Lizardman army leaves the swamp and advances on your tribe]

[You lead the Goblin army to confront the Lizardman army, encountering them in the eastern forest]

[You achieve victory, with less than one-tenth of the Lizardmen surviving]

[You lead the Goblin cavalry to catch up with Bai Ling and capture her]

[You lead the Goblin army to advance on Black Mountain Swamp]

[The Black Mountain tribe summons the Barbarian God "Aqua"]

[Black Mountain Swamp is polluted by the Barbarian God, becoming the Great Wasteland, and all life is refined into wasteland slaves]

[You choose to retreat and lead the Goblin army back to the tribe]

[Three-year limit reached]

[As a Transmigrator and a Goblin, you cautiously and gradually strengthen your tribe, and your efforts have paid off, your life is just beginning]

[Simulated life ends, score: 100]

[Please choose the following reward]

[1. Consume ten score levels +1]

[2. Consume one score attribute +1]

[3. Consume ten score charm +1]

[4. Consume ten score "Steel Muscles and Iron Bones" skill level +1]

[5. Consume ten score "Wind Blade" skill level +1]

"Great Wasteland, wasteland slaves?"

For some reason, the future predicted by the simulated life gave Li Meng a chill down his spine.

The appearance of the black robe, the sacrificial disk that can summon the Barbarian God, the Great Wasteland, wasteland slaves...

Everything happened too suddenly.

It was as if a bomb suddenly dropped from the sky on an otherwise peaceful day.

That thunderous explosion caused everything to change drastically.

Also, Li Meng didn't expect the simulated life could only predict the future within three years.

"Choose four!"

[Consume 60 score, "Steel Muscles and Iron Bones" skill level +6]

["Steel Muscles and Iron Bones" skill has reached max level, advancing to "Steel Skin"]

[Consume 40 score, "Steel Skin" skill level +2]

[Your attributes have increased]

"Hmph!"

Li Meng suddenly let out a muffled groan, his face showing pain.

His hands tightly gripped his thighs, veins bulging on the back of his hands.

His whole body crackled with sound.

The intense pain made Li Meng feel as if the bones in his body were being crushed.

The severe pain lasted for several minutes before gradually subsiding.

When the pain disappeared, Li Meng was drenched in sweat.

"Boss... are you okay?"

Gobu Qiang, standing behind Li Meng, took a fearful step back.

For some reason, Gobu Qiang felt that the boss in front of him had changed.

Just standing behind the boss, he felt a suffocating pressure.

His legs were trembling, and he felt like kneeling at the boss's feet.

"I'm fine!"

Taking a deep breath, Li Meng focused his thoughts.

[Name: Gobu Meng]

[Race: Goblin]

[Level: 15]

[Strength: 775]

[Defense: 759]

[Agility: 291]

[Magic: 86]

[Charm: 0]

[Luck: 11]

[Devour: Devouring the flesh of Magical Beasts has a chance to acquire their skills]

[Steel Skin: LV2 (Strength +600, Defense +600, Agility +200)]

[Wind Blade: LV1]

[Body Regeneration: LV1]

[Heart Speech: LV1]

[Ice Element Control: LV1]

My god, what happened?

The terrifying attributes left Li Meng dumbfounded.

He never expected the attribute bonuses after skill advancement to be so ridiculously high.

His current attributes have completely surpassed Benben.

Although he looks small, his body contains astonishing power.

"This feeling is amazing!"

Li Meng excitedly clenched his right fist.

From this moment on, Gobu Ba was no longer a threat to him.

He could crush Gobu Ba with just one finger.

"Boss, she's back!"

At this moment, Bai Ling finished her negotiations with the Lizardmen.

She turned and walked over.

Looking at Bai Ling approaching, Li Meng's face was filled with greed.

There's still time, there should be time.

With his current powerful physical attributes, mating with Bai Ling could produce offspring with even greater potential.

Facing Li Meng's greedy and lecherous gaze, Bai Ling frowned slightly.

Returning to Li Meng, a trace of disgust flashed in Bai Ling's eyes.

She slightly lowered her head and reported the negotiation details with the Gray Scale tribe leader to Li Meng.

"The Gray Scale tribe is willing to submit to you, willing to tribute two-tenths of their population, and willing to act as envoys to convince the Black Scale tribe to submit to you, but the Gray Scale tribe has two demands."

Two demands?

Li Meng glanced at the Lizardman standing in the water not far away.

Facing Li Meng's gaze, the Gray Scale tribe leader lowered his head in humiliation.

This was a gesture of submission.

"Speak, what are the demands?"

Seeing this, Li Meng turned back to Bai Ling in front of him.

"First, the Goblins must ensure the safety of the tributed population and not treat the Lizardmen as food."

"Second, there must be no Goblins in the tribe!"

"Alright, I agree!"

Li Meng agreed to the two demands of the Gray Scale tribe without hesitation.
