First Simulation

"Gobloro, Gobloro, wake up, it's time to eat."

Faintly, Luo Ying heard someone calling him. At the same time, his body was shaking violently. He opened his eyes and saw a huge head, weak limbs, and greenish skin covering an ugly, three-headed monster in front of him. The surroundings were dim, as if he were in a cave.

Seeing this terrifying scene, Luo Ying slowly closed his eyes. Hmm, I'm not fully awake yet. This must still be a dream.

"Gobloro, you're awake! Why did you close your eyes again?"

'Gobloro, is that me? In this dream, I'm called Gobloro, and this monster in front of me can talk. Upon closer look, it looks like a goblin... it's calling me Gobloro. Could it be...' At this thought, Luo Ying opened his eyes, looked at his hands, and immediately noticed his green, weak arms, just like the monster in front of him. Did I dream of turning into a goblin? This dream is actually quite interesting.

"Gobloro, hurry up and eat! If you're late, there won't be any food left." The goblin in front of him pulled his arm and started dragging him outside.

Luo Ying felt a slight pain in his arm.

'Wait? Pain? Just now, this dream felt too real. Could it be...?'

An unsettling feeling crept into Gobloro's heart. He quickly pinched the goblin's thigh and spun it around 360 degrees.

"Ahhhhhhh!"

The goblin in front of him let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered.

'That scream sounds way too real. This can't be a dream anymore.'

Although he remained calm on the outside, Luo Ying's heart was in turmoil. Is there anything worse than waking up and turning into a goblin? He had once thought his life was unlucky, but now... now he wasn't even himself anymore.

'Looking at the situation now, I must've crossed over. Strange, why can't I remember how I died before I crossed over? I'm an orphan, so no one should be checking my phone browser. I had incognito mode on, it should be fine. I hope no one opened my computer's study materials.'

As he thought about it, the goblin opposite him had gotten angry and swung a punch at him. But Luo Ying had trained in combat in his previous life and was at a professional level. He took a step back to dodge the attack, then delivered a right jab straight to the goblin's face.

"Bang!"

The punch knocked the goblin down, and when it got up again, it looked at Gobloro in fear.

Gobloro didn't continue attacking. Instead, he said, "What were you asking me to do just now?"

Hearing Gobloro's words, the goblin quickly replied, "I came to get you to eat." But his voice was full of fear, clearly, he was terrified after being punched by Gobloro.

"To eat, huh? Alright, take me there."

"Yes."

Then, Luo Ying followed the goblin. The situation had already unfolded, and he could only accept it. From this day on, he was no longer Luo Ying, but Gobloro, an ordinary goblin.

But speaking of which, since he had crossed over, did he have any systems or something like that?

On the way, he tried calling out inside his mind.

[System, are you there? If so, check my panel.]

The next moment, a game-like interface panel appeared in front of him. Seeing the panel, Gobloro breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, there was a system.

In an instant, a new light of hope rekindled in his eyes. As long as he had a system, it would be fine. Otherwise, surviving as a goblin would be really hard. When he watched anime in his previous life, the high-level goblins looked quite cool. Hopefully, he could quickly break free from his weak state and level up to a higher-level goblin.

He thought about it while walking and started checking his attribute panel.

Name: Gobloro

Race: Goblin

Template: Ordinary

Level: 1/20 (0%)

Stamina: 3

Strength: 3

Agility: 2

Spirit: 4

Charm: 0

Skill: Critical Hit lv.1

Talent: Devour (A talent shared by all monsters, which allows them to gain experience by eating the bodies of monsters or humans)

Monster Language (A talent for humanoid monsters that enables them to speak)

Remaining Simulation Attempts: 1 (Each natural month, one free simulation is granted. Additional simulations can be obtained by consuming magic crystals. As your strength increases, the amount of magic crystals required for each simulation will gradually increase. Simultaneously, simulation attempts cannot accumulate, and only one can be active at a time.)

The panel data is clear at a glance; it's apparent that he's really weak right now.

As for the simulation attempts, he can more or less understand it, as he has read simulation novels before. However, since he's unclear about the state of his body during a simulation, he didn't rashly begin it.

"Gobro, stop spacing out, hurry up, or the meat will be gone," Gobra carefully reminded him.

Instead, he spoke to the goblin in front of him: "I need to take a dump, you go ahead and eat."

In the human world, saying this would definitely get someone laughed at, who says this during mealtime? But Gobro had heard that goblins aren't very intelligent, and he was worried that if he said he had a stomach ache, they wouldn't understand. So he spoke very plainly. However, the response he got next was shocking.

"What's so important about taking a dump? You can eat and poop at the same time, you can poop anywhere, but this is the only meal for the day, if you don't eat now, it'll be all gone."

Looking at the clear yet foolish expression of the goblin in front of him, Gobro grimaced and said, "I really need to go, you go ahead."

"Oh, okay."

Seeing that Gobro insisted on going to poop, the goblin didn't know what else to say and turned to leave.

Once the goblin left, Gobro quickly returned to the cave where he had been resting. There were no other goblins around; they were probably all fighting for food. It should be safe to simulate here, right?

[System, start the first life simulation.]

[The first life simulation has begun.]

[Year 1: Your name is Gobro. You are an ordinary goblin from a small goblin tribe on the outskirts of the Monster Forest. Your leader is a giant troll. Although he possesses great strength, he is very lazy and makes all the goblins do everything for him. Your main tasks are hunting and capturing females from other races.]

[As a modern person, your intelligence is much higher than that of other goblins. You know that no matter how hard you work, the final distribution of resources will be the same, so every time you go hunting, you stay at the back of the team, and every time it's mealtime, you rush to the front. In private, you constantly practice your skills. Over time, as you live longer and eat more monster meat, your strength gradually grows. Most of the hardworking goblins die during hunting, and the few who survive are severely injured.]
