Romance potential value over 90?!
Doesn’t that mean this little one is a monster girl who can provide system rewards after being conquered?
He had just started to think about it, and now a monster girl capable of providing system rewards had delivered herself to his doorstep.
Joy surged in his chest, and Lin Ran almost laughed out loud.
However, perhaps because he was immersed in joy, Lin Ran didn’t notice the strange change happening beside him.
“No… Don’t come near me!!”
A light voice, tinged with tears, rang out, accompanied by a thick green dust that exploded outward like a blast.
Knowing the other party was a toxic type, Lin Ran’s heart tightened.
He instinctively retreated several steps and instantly transformed into his slime form.
Although his breathing ability hadn’t fully recovered after transforming into a humanoid and now relied on mimicking a locust’s abdomen to breathe, he still subconsciously held his breath, doing his best to avoid inhaling the poisonous mist.
Fortunately, a slime’s body didn’t have organs or blood and was immune to most toxins.
The green dust quickly dispersed, leaving the red Mythical Poison Mushroom Girl standing dazed in place.
“Wha… what’s going on?”
The Mushroom Girl stared at Lin Ran in astonishment.
How could this human turn into a slime? And… he seemed completely unafraid of her poison.
Still, she didn’t abandon her instinctive self-defense.
The freshly scattered green dust fell onto the remains of Undead on the ground, and, as if catalyzed, rapidly sprouted into identical red Mythical Poison Mushroom Girls.
They all began to spray green dust toward Lin Ran, secreting transparent liquid in an attempt to corrode him.
The toxins were effective—after all, the Undead corpses lying on the ground were somewhat corroded.
But against a slime, they had no effect at all.
“Have you finished? Seriously… You’re at least my friend’s daughter, why would I hurt you for no reason?”
Lin Ran sighed and spoke.
Yes, these Mushroom Girls were essentially descendants split off from Qi Xiaoyu.
In other words, in a way, they were all Qi Xiaoyu’s daughters.
The batch on the ground could even be considered Qi Xiaoyu’s granddaughters.
Of course, in the sense of Mushroom Girls.
From a human perspective, conquering his friend’s daughter felt like a dangerous act.
Hmm… Although he had just cooked up a bunch of her daughters.
The third-generation Mushroom Girls on the ground seemed intellectually underdeveloped, had low romance potential, and only attacked Lin Ran mindlessly.
However, the mutated Mushroom Girl at the source, upon hearing Lin Ran’s words, actually raised her head and stopped attacking.
Her body still trembled, but she bravely spoke up:
“Is… is what you said true?”
No, little sister, can’t you have some sense of crisis?!
You believe him just like that?
Lin Ran felt a bit helpless, but this was also one of the major traits of monster girls.
That is, a worldview completely different from that of humans.
A slime that could be conquered with a bite of sausage, a puppet willing to let someone kill her to survive, and the Mushroom Girl in front of him who could be convinced by a single sentence.
The reason Lin Ran could feel affection for these creatures was, to a large extent, because of this.
And this trait truly helped him gain trust.
However, this trust still needed to be reinforced.
“That gray mushroom outside is your da—cough… mother, you know that, right? I’m helping her evolve and need your power to protect her.”
“What’s your ability? Was it that toxic dust from before?”
“You should know there’s not much you all can do to me, so I need your toxins to help in battle. In return, I can supply you with food and drink.”
Lin Ran didn’t just try to comfort her but spoke honestly about his needs, immediately proposing a reward.
Telling a child lacking a sense of security that he needed her help actually made it easier to gain her trust.
As for whether her ability worked against the Undead?
Don’t think the Undead are immune to poison.
Just look under his feet—those Undead corroded into black char speak for themselves.
As Lin Ran spoke, he shifted into Lim’s form.
This form allowed him to retain the slime’s immunity to toxins while keeping strong human hands—
Capable of picking Mushroom Girls as a threat.
With both carrot and stick, the Mushroom Girl looked a little confused.
Instinctively, she feared those hands that had picked countless of her kin.
But at the same time, she maintained some trust in the help and reward Lin Ran offered.
Especially with the honest eyes of the human-turned-slime before her, she couldn’t bring herself to doubt him.
At the same time, the mass of Mushroom Girls beneath Lin Ran’s feet also ceased their attack.
Everything seemed to be moving in a good direction.
When Lin Ran went outside, Qi Xiaoyu had already begun to evolve, her body expanding step by step.
Meanwhile, the new Mythical Poison Mushroom Girl was also absorbing nutrients, evolving even faster than Qi Xiaoyu.
Wang Fatty and the others’ defense had become more practiced.
Was everything really heading in a positive direction?
But the sense of wrongness in Lin Ran’s heart still hadn’t dissipated.
Everything was going too smoothly.
As calm as the stillness before a storm.
Lin Ran’s brows furrowed.
He instinctively looked around, feeling something was off.
According to the process, next he only had to wait for Qi Xiaoyu to finish evolving, then take Wang Fatty and the others to break out, kill the BOSS, and complete the mission.
Theoretically, the BOSS shouldn’t be too difficult—after all, there were plenty in this world weaker than himself.
But the sense of unease that refused to leave—what exactly was it?
Fortunately.
His luck remained.
That -11 luck ensured that before he could imagine the worst ending, that so-called sense of unease would reveal itself, showing him what the worst truly meant.
The once-clamorous battlefield suddenly fell silent for a moment.
An indescribable oppressive terror descended from the sky, making everyone’s hearts tremble.
Lin Ran jerked his head up.
Not far away, among the heap of Undead, a figure slowly stood.
Long silver hair cascaded down, a broken dragon-shaped mask half-covered their face, revealing pale skin and countless scars beneath.
From the cracks in the mask, a pair of indifferent black vertical pupils looked down upon the countless ants before them.
Dark-scaled armor covered the body, and in their hand was a dragon-clawed great scythe.
Black mist swirled around, turning the Undead at his feet into dust, and with a grip of his right hand, the mist was drawn in, transformed into energy.
Like a war god risen from the abyss.
Seeing this figure, Lin Ran finally remembered what all the things around him truly were…
This End Times was the invasion of reality by myriad worlds.
Then, wasn’t it time for the second world to arrive?
…
