Goblin Simulation: Building a Dark Empire-Chapter 181 – Go to Slime Lake
The story between her and Amon was beautiful.
Yet it left her with a sense of unreality.
As if it were a dream, a dream too real.
When she awoke, she would lose everything.
And be alone once more, as she always had been.
"What's wrong?"
At that moment, Li Meng opened his eyes.
He wanted to sleep, but Vanessa kept staring at him blankly.
This made Li Meng unable to resist opening his eyes.
Vanessa smiled gently and shook her head.
"Sleep, have a good rest, and all your worries will disappear!"
Saying this, Li Meng pulled Vanessa closer by the waist.
Vanessa nestled into Li Meng's embrace.
She snuggled in his arms, found a comfortable position, and closed her eyes.
Time passed slowly, and the bedchamber grew quiet.
Soon, the sun set, and darkness enveloped the land.
The night deepened, and silence reigned.
Even the longest night must eventually end.
When dawn broke in the eastern sky, heralding a new day.
Li Meng rose early in the morning.
"Boss, Bo... King!"
As Li Meng stepped out of the throne hall, Gobu Sheng hurried over.
Seeing the little king emerge from the door.
Gobu Sheng was taken aback.
His tall frame staggered, nearly falling to the ground.
"King, didn't you evolve into the Goblin King? Why are you so small now?"

Outside the door, Li Meng stretched lazily.
Then glared at Gobu Sheng, who looked puzzled at the bottom of the steps.
"Being big is inconvenient, so I shrank!"
Gobu Sheng glanced at the throne palace.
The underlings said the king was nearly five meters tall.
He had turned into a giant like an ogre.
Yesterday, when the king returned, he was at the Gobu Da tribe.
So he hadn't seen the king's majestic form.
He had been waiting outside the throne palace since early morning.
But the result was disappointing.
Not only had the king not grown, but he had become smaller.
If it weren't for the unchanged scent on the king.
He wouldn't have recognized the goblin before him as the "king."
"King, is this your ability?"
"Sort of!"
Yawning, Li Meng walked outside.
Gobu Sheng quickly followed with a fawning expression.
"King, let me see your majestic form!"
"No way, if I grow, my clothes will rip!"
Through the north gate of the inner district, Li Meng left the area.
"Why has the king shrunk?"
Wherever he went, goblins looked astonished.
Yesterday, the king was so big.
How did he become so small today?
"King, I... I challenge you!"
A Goblin Soldier suddenly blocked Li Meng's path.
It raised its spiked club towards Li Meng with a fearful expression.
The small king gave the goblin a weak illusion.
Li Meng glared at the Goblin Soldier.
With that glare, the Goblin Soldier's legs went weak, and it knelt on the ground.
"Get lost, don't block the way!"
The Goblin Soldier scrambled away.
This scene made the surrounding goblins burst into laughter.
"Gobu Sheng, go about your business, I'm heading to the Iron Cave!"
With that, Li Meng's figure flashed and dashed away.
In the blink of an eye, he appeared a hundred meters away.
"Boom!"
At that moment, the ground cracked beneath his feet.
A wave of air exploded outward.
Li Meng leaped into the sky.
In the blink of an eye, he turned into a small black dot and disappeared.
"The king flew up!"
"Where, where?"
The goblins stared at the sky, dumbfounded.
How did the king fly up?
Gobu Sheng was also stunned.
His ugly face showed a look of relief.
Seeing the king so small, he too had the urge to challenge the king.
Fortunately, he held back.
If the king got angry, he might have been dead.
Meanwhile, a thousand meters high in the sky.
"Can I really fly this high?"
Li Meng was also startled by his incredible jumping power.
He hadn't expected to soar a thousand meters into the sky.
But thinking of his exaggerated stats.
Li Meng wasn't surprised he could achieve this.
Though he had shrunk, his stats hadn't changed.
The size only affected the exertion of strength and agility.
In a large form, strength could be exerted at 200%.
In a small form, only 100% of strength could be exerted.
But the agility attribute was the opposite.
The larger the form, the higher the demand for agility.
In the morning, outside the Iron Cave.
"Boom!"
A loud crash resounded.
A shadow fell from the sky, hitting the ground outside the Iron Cave.
The dark ground was smashed into a large pit.
"My legs are a bit numb!"
Li Meng shook his numb legs and walked out of the pit.
Hearing the commotion in the Iron Cave, Li Meng grinned.
He leisurely walked inside.
"Bo... Boss?"
Gobu Ge approached with a suspicious look.
It sniffed with its twitching nose.
Once confirmed it was the boss, Gobu Ge showed a fawning smile.
"Boss, why are you small again?"
"Small is convenient, Gobu Ge, how much mithril ore is in storage now?"
Gobu Ge turned and pointed towards the underground river.
"Boss, it's all over there!"
Looking towards the shallower section of the underground river.
The river segment, hundreds of meters long, glowed with a silvery light.
Like a brilliant Milky Way.
One could imagine the riverbed covered with mithril ore.
"Fish them all out, assemble a team to go with me, we set off tomorrow!"
Heading to the demon tribe's stronghold posed certain risks.
Thus, crafting a set of mithril equipment was necessary.
Even if those ghost beastmen intended harm.
A set of mithril equipment would increase his survival rate.
"Boss, I understand, I'll be ready."
"Call me King!"
Boss was fine, but Li Meng preferred King.
"Yes, yes, King, King!"
Gobu Ge's face was full of smiles.
It's just a title, call it whatever.
Besides, Gobu Ge had seen the king's true form.
Calling him "King" was most appropriate.
Not lingering long in the Iron Cave, Li Meng turned and left.
Back at the throne palace, Li Meng entered the harem to start a new round of progeny.
For a time, with the king's return, the harem was lively once more.
Early the next morning, Li Meng left the tribe for the Iron Cave.
Outside the Iron Cave, a goblin cart team was already on standby.
The carts were loaded with large and small mithril ores.
And two carts carried a large number of molds.
"The king is here, the king is here!"
As Li Meng emerged from the forest, the convoy became lively.
Gobu Ge, guarding the Iron Cave entrance, brightened up.
It eagerly ran towards the king.
