Chapter 1
In the Strange Misty Forest, within the dim goblin caves.
This was a filthy place, depicted in the popular novels of the Rubin Kingdom as a terrifying location where even virtuous women would tremble, and where infants would cease their cries upon entering.
And these detailed descriptions were not unfounded.
At least the people of the Rubin Kingdom held great resentment towards the goblins living here. Adventurers often came to exterminate the goblins, using their left ears as proof to claim a meager bounty from the Rubin Kingdom.
And now, it was indeed the season when goblins reproduced most vigorously each year. People were convinced that many of the missing women were surely related to these evil goblins.
At this moment, within the concealed goblin cave, a shocking scene was unfolding.
Goblins, each standing just over a meter tall with green skin, pointed ears, and sharp teeth, were gathered around a stone platform, fervently kneeling and chanting praises.
The obscure language of the goblins faintly echoed from the depths of the cave.
Among these goblins, there were two purple-skinned goblins, one old and one young, both wearing feathered hats. They raised their wooden staffs high, excitedly reciting the incantations of wizards.
Four bulky white goblins, each standing two to three meters tall with obese bodies, crouched near several entrances to the dark cave. They formed the most secure shields with their bodies, remaining vigilant for any potential human adventurers that might appear at any moment.
And on the stone platform in the deepest part of the cave, there lay a goblin infant, weighing approximately four catties (about 2 kilograms), its appearance somewhat resembling that of a human baby, but with golden skin.
Undoubtedly, this was a miracle.
Goblins, known as disposable cannon fodder, had a world-renowned advantage.
They reproduced abundantly, quickly, and grew rapidly.
They could give birth every seven days, with seven offspring in each litter, forming fully within seven days and reaching adulthood in another seven.
Surprisingly, within the cave, there were only those mother goblins standing just over a meter tall.
The offspring they birthed were naturally small, most weighing less than a catty.
But now, a miracle had occurred.
One mother goblin, during childbirth, had only given birth to a single goblin infant before finally succumbing to exhaustion and death.
The goblins did not feel sadness because of this; on the contrary, they were extremely excited.
As a species with a very low rank in the hierarchy, goblins were destined to be weak and feeble from the moment of their birth. Therefore, they longed for their own strength and the strength of their tribe.
They would compete with each other, but when a higher-ranking individual appeared, they would worship and unconditionally obey their commands.
Perhaps sensing the desires of the goblins, the heavens granted this race more possibilities.
The bulky white ghost goblins, the slim purple demon goblins with exceptional intelligence and magical prowess, the robust red devil goblins, the terrifying black rampage goblins, and the silver king goblin as their leader.
They had all appeared in goblin history and had been immensely powerful. Even now, there were still a certain number of them existing in some corner of the world, just like the two purple demon goblins and the four white ghost goblins here, feared by the people.
And now, here was born a goblin individual rarely seen, one that might not have been born for thousands or even longer, and a type of goblin for which there could not simultaneously exist two in the world – the golden emperor goblin.
The Goblin Emperor – Kanal, was born.
The moment the Emperor was born, its destined name would be known by all goblins in the world and etched into their hearts.
The goblins here cheered and danced in celebration for this reason.
On the stone platform, a pair of golden eyes slowly opened, gazing at the dozens of ugly and grotesque beings surrounding it, sinking into contemplation.
In that moment, it understood everything.
This was its race.
The genes engraved within it told it that it was a goblin.
After realizing this, Chen Le fell into deep thought.
Inherited Talents: Magic Power
The inherited talent of this purple demon goblin is Magic Power, which means that its offspring will receive an additional boost to their base magic power when inheriting base values.
Now, let’s look at this small purple demon goblin.
Individual Name: Purple Demon Goblin (Non-Descendant)
Lifespan: 5 years
Attack: 2 (+9)
Health: 13 (+40)
Magic Power: 24 (+56)
Intelligence: 9 (+19)
Resistance to Physical Attacks: 2 (+2)
Resistance to Magic: 8 (+23)
Attribute: Water
Occupation: Goblin Shaman (Assignable)
Inherited Talents: Health, Water, Resistance to Physical Attacks
This purple demon goblin has slightly stronger survivability than the older purple demon goblin, but the upper limits of its magic power and intelligence are not as high as those of the older one.
However, it does have quite a few inherited abilities.
Chen Le pondered for a moment. The innate information he received did not include more detailed genetic properties.
He could only speculate that having the genetic ability of the water attribute meant that offspring born with a female with a different genetic talent might possibly inherit two attributes simultaneously.
It is worth mentioning that, even without attributes, it is possible to cultivate attributes postnatally, but with a low probability of inheriting them genetically.
Perhaps he would experiment later.
The birth of a strong individual from a strong individual was the goblin’s way of evolution. However, so far, all the powerful goblins had been hunted down by humans. Those who survived were weak goblins struggling to survive.
From now on, Chen Le would lead this humble and weak race. The path they would take was destined to be either survival or rebirth.
Because the Emperor was a monarch whom all goblins would protect, and the Emperor was also an existence that most humans, including most boss-level creatures, wanted to eliminate.
The existence of the Goblin Emperor had already threatened the status of all creatures in this world.
“I am no longer human.”
Chen Le, no.
The Goblin Emperor Kanal stood up straight, his expression calm and indifferent, raising his right hand high in silence.
The ugly creatures in the cave erupted into joyful clamor.
...
Seven days later.
Chen Le, now as big as a fourteen-year-old human youth with enough food, sat in the goblin cave wearing a fur coat.
He was lurking, waiting for adulthood in seven days.
But at this moment, he looked at the low-level goblins who had just returned from hunting outside, then glanced at the frightened human girl in slightly torn but gorgeous clothing who had been brought to him. A hint of profound crisis appeared on his face.
