Goblin Simulation: Building a Dark Empire-Chapter 93 – Event that triggers an event
The sudden surge in the panel's attributes left Li Meng dumbfounded.
The Hardened Stone Skin skill not only advanced to Hardened Stone Body.
It also gained a powerful skill called "Heart of Stone."
The ability to be immune to all negative effects made Li Meng drool with envy.
With this skill at his side, only a direct confrontation could kill him.
"No wonder you could bring back so many Ogres, Benben, you've gotten stronger!"
It was clear that in the past few months, Benben had gone back to the mountains to fight.
He had become stronger through battles with his own kind.
The battered armor was the best proof.
Ordinary attacks couldn't cause such damage.
Only an Ogre's fist could leave such marks.
"Boss, my armor is broken, I can't wear it anymore!"
Benben looked down at the armor on his body.
He reached out his right hand and poked the chest plate.
With that poke, the chest plate immediately fell to the ground.
Li Meng grinned, feeling quite pleased.
"No worries, I'll make you a new one. Let's go inside!"
Benben got up and stood.
He turned and roared a few times at his companions behind him.
The Ogres all stood up one by one.
They followed the boss and the Goblins into the Iron Cave.
Before long, the outside of the Iron Cave quieted down.
Under the moonlight, the forest returned to its previous silence.
In the following days, Li Meng focused on one task.
That was crafting armor tailored for Benben and his underlings.
The daily life of a blacksmith began with Benben's return.
From that day on, the clanging sounds of metal in the cave became even louder.
It was another new day, in the afternoon.
In the Iron Cave, by the underground riverbank.
Li Meng stood by a massive iron anvil on the riverbank.
Holding large tongs, he placed the red-hot armor parts.
Benben used a specialized giant hammer to pound them repeatedly.
The Ogres watched curiously from the side.
Ogres liked warm environments, so they could withstand high temperatures.
"Benben has become so strong yet can still be killed by humans. Humans really can't be underestimated!"
Looking at Benben's massive body, a trace of worry flashed in Li Meng's eyes.
The Principality of Ilysis was invading the Goblin Forest to expand its territory.
The future of human invasion into the Goblin Forest was inevitable.
To humans, they were merely developing the wilderness.
Eliminating the Barbarians was just a trivial task.
The future path of conflict with humans was unavoidable.
"Boss, boss!"
At this moment, a Goblin Soldier came running over excitedly.
When it saw the massive figures on the riverbank.
The shouting Gobuchai quickly stopped in its tracks.
It looked at the group of Ogres on the riverbank with a face full of uncertainty.
Could it be that the Iron Cave was invaded by Ogres?
Where did so many Ogres come from?
"What is it?"
Seeing Gobuchai hesitant to approach, Li Meng asked.
The boss's inquiry brought Gobuchai back to its senses.
It looked fervently at the figure forging by the anvil.
The boss was truly amazing.
He had recruited so many Ogre underlings again.
Gobuchai was no longer afraid and quickly approached the riverbank.
"Boss, I encountered the Pigmen tribe in the eastern forest. They attacked us, but we drove them away."
Gobuchai's report made Li Meng's expression change slightly by the anvil.
The turning point predicted by the simulated life had finally appeared.
This conflict led to a massive attack by the Pigmen tribe.
The Pigmen tribe was probably already preparing to advance westward.
"Boss, it's not my fault. They ambushed us first!"
Gobuchai shrank its neck, cautiously looking at the boss.
"How far was the battle site from the Gobu Di tribe?"
The Gobu Di tribe was about twenty kilometers west of the Pigmen tribe.
Not too close, but not too far either.
Gobuchai counted on its fingers.
"About five Iron Caves' distance from the tribe."
The Iron Cave was about two kilometers from the throne tribe.
Five would be over ten kilometers.
"I understand, go ahead!"
Seeing that the boss didn't punish it, Gobuchai grinned.
It turned and ran out of the cave excitedly.
Listening to the departing footsteps, Li Meng's face showed contemplation.
It seemed the Pigmen tribe was expanding westward.
"Gobu Ge!"
Li Meng suddenly called out.
Gobu Ge, who was cooling down by the water, shivered.
It quickly got up and looked at the boss.
"Boss, I'm here!"
"Start mass-producing Goblin armor from today."
Due to the constantly changing size of Goblins.
Full-body armor was out of the question.
But simple armor could be made to protect vital parts.
The iron production in the Iron Cave could now support large-scale Goblin armor production.
It was time to arm his Goblin underlings.
With armor protection, even ordinary Goblins' survival rates would increase several times.
In the era of cold weapons, having armor and not having armor were two completely different matters.
Gobu Ge's eyes lit up, and it ran off excitedly.
"Boss, I got it!"
Gobu Ge, who had been forging arrowheads and spearheads every day, was already bored.
Finally, it could forge something else.
Li Meng looked up at Benben and grinned.
"Benben, speed up. Next month, we'll go trouble the Pigmen tribe!"
Benben laughed heartily and hammered even harder.
------
Goblin Northern Forest.
In the depths of the endless forest, green was the only color.
A tributary split from the Goblin River and extended northward.
On the riverbanks over twenty kilometers away, a tribe had appeared at some point.
Wooden buildings stretched across both banks.
A large area of the surrounding forest had been cut down, leaving no stumps behind.
In the afternoon, the Goblin Forest was bathed in bright sunlight.
In the largest wooden house of the tribe.
"What a bunch of useless fools, can't even handle a few Goblins!"
An angry roar echoed in the wooden house.
In the hall, over a dozen Pigmen tribe members dressed in animal skins sat on the ground.

On the main seat sat a Pigmen tribe member nearly 2.5 meters tall, resembling a giant.
Its chubby, robust physique was a size larger than the other Pigmen tribe members.
Facing the chieftain's gaze, all the elders lowered their heads.
"Chieftain, Goblins frequently appear in the western forest. There should be a Goblin nest."
"Nonsense, we've only been here a short while, and we receive reports of Goblin sightings almost every few days."
"The Goblins we encountered this time were unusual. They seemed to deliberately avoid us."
"That's right, several times Goblins turned and ran when they saw our hunting party."
"But we're the Pigmen tribe. Isn't it normal for Goblins to flee when they see us?"
"No, foolish Goblins have never been aware of their own strength."
"That's true, as long as Goblins gather together, they would even dare to bite a dragon a few times."
The elders in the hall began discussing one after another.
As they talked, they seemed to forget about the still-angry chieftain.
