Chapter 003: The Rampage of Monsters
A small group of goblin slaves, approximately seven or eight in number, charged towards this group of people. The one at the front swung a wooden club and struck a paralyzed individual on the back of the head with great force. The head shattered like a watermelon struck by a hammer, bursting apart with a crisp sound, sending red and white matter splattering everywhere, and even an eyeball rolled at the feet of the crowd, provoking a chorus of screams.
"Drink!" Suddenly, a loud shout was heard, and a plump figure charged over, instantly knocking the goblin slave, who was attempting to ambush Xiao Yu, to the ground. Just as Xiao Yu turned around, he swung a club down onto the goblin slave's head. With a crack, the skull shattered, and black blood along with yellow brain matter splattered all over the face of the plump man.
Ah, the monster is coming, run, run!
Han Kexin's voice trembled as she said: "Are they... are they demons from hell?"
They are coming!
The goblin lying on the ground was about to raise its wooden club to knock the human off, but unexpectedly, the opponent reacted even faster. With a swift motion of the right arm, a wooden spike plunged forcefully into the goblin's wrist. Due to the excessive force, the spike broke in half, causing the goblin slave to emit a strange cry of pain. The wooden club weapon slipped from its grasp and rolled aside, and in its fury, it opened its mouth, intending to bite.
A girl who was running slowly was caught up with, and a blow struck her from behind. With the sound of breaking bones, she was sent flying several meters, landing on the ground, spitting blood and fragments of her internal organs. In her painful struggle, she could not stand up no matter what. A monster pounced on her, one hand pressing down on her head, its mouth full of sharp teeth biting into her snow-white neck, easily tearing off large chunks of flesh to chew, the splattering crimson blood instantly staining the ground a large area of red.
A glint flashed in Xiao Yu's eyes as he forcefully threw the wooden stick in his hand towards Wang Chao. Startled, Wang Chao instinctively closed his eyes, and a dull thud sounded beside his ear. When he turned to look, he happened to see the wooden stick strike a goblin. If it weren't for this impressive flying stick, Wang Chao would surely have been severely injured.
With eight or nine consecutive strikes, the goblin's head was nearly smashed to a pulp, and a large orb of light, the size of a thumb, shot into its forehead, causing its corpulent body to shudder violently
A sturdy and robust young man, surprisingly bold, found himself surrounded by monsters after running a few steps. With no way to escape, he suddenly realized that the monsters were nothing but skin and bones, seemingly not very formidable. An inexplicable surge of courage welled up within him. He picked up a stone from the ground and hurled it at the head of the nearest monster.
Viscera, fresh blood, and brain matter are scattered everywhere, collectively depicting a canvas of hell
The gray-skinned dwarf actually dared to ambush me, the fat lord? I curse your mother!
The goblin slave licked the brain matter that had splattered onto its lips, letting out another unpleasant screech. It bit off a large chunk of flesh from the corpse, savoring it with delight, while crimson blood dripped from the corners of its mouth, creating a particularly grotesque and terrifying sight. At that moment, a sharp wooden stake suddenly pierced through its right eye, producing a gurgling sound. It convulsed a few times, and the half-chewed meat mixed with blood and saliva fell to the ground, its body twitching a few more times before falling still.

Jinshi shares a dormitory with Wang Chao and Xiao Yu. His hair is less than half an inch long, almost resembling a bald head. He has a robust physique and a face full of flesh, giving him a fierce and intimidating appearance. However, Jinshi's personality contrasts sharply with his exterior; he is a kind-hearted person who enjoys helping others and is also a fitness enthusiast. His greatest passion is muscle training, and he is nicknamed "Big Fool," "Stone," and so on.
Xiao Yu was taken aback as he consecutively killed three monsters. In terms of strength, he was only slightly inferior to the goblin slaves, but with his rich experience, dealing with goblins was a simple task. In the blink of an eye, two more fell at his hands, and after absorbing five spheres of essence, Xiao Yu's strength was enhanced by a full measure, no longer inferior to the goblins.
This fat man is named Wang Chao, nicknamed Fei Chao or Chao Fei. He shares a dormitory with Xiao Yu and is also his best friend at school. However, in a previous life, Wang Chao died in an earthquake, and the reborn Xiao Yu almost forgot about him. This person has an exceptionally thick skin, which allows him to adapt to this environment more easily than others.
Xiao Yu decisively discarded the wooden spike, pressed down on the goblin's face, and forcefully slammed it onto the ground. As the creature became dazed, he swiftly delivered a punch to its face. Having absorbed the essence of a goblin, his strength was increased by a quarter compared to usual, causing the goblin slave to lose two of its sharp teeth in the process. Seizing the opportunity, Xiao Yu rolled to the side, picked up the goblin slave's large wooden club, and raised it above his head to strike down with force. He then lifted it again, the club dripping with thick black blood, and slammed it down once more, lifting it again and striking!
Wang Chao was taken aback, "Hey, don't be reckless. There are more than ten short ones chasing him. Can you handle it?"
Han Kexin shouted, "Be careful, a group of monsters is coming!"
The goblin slaves surged in from all directions, slowly approaching until they were within a certain distance. Suddenly, a fierce and bloodthirsty light erupted from their large eyes, as if they had all been injected with adrenaline, becoming frenzied and exhilarated. They raised their large wooden clubs and charged towards the surviving teachers and students, the iron chains of their leg shackles clashing against the ground, producing a series of crisp sounds
The vast majority present are university students, who have been pampered at home and have little exposure to the world. They are essentially powerless, and even the thought of killing a chicken terrifies them. Under the overwhelming fear, cries for their parents fill the air, and they lack the courage to resist, even though their numbers exceed those of the monsters by more than tenfold
Approximately over 200 monsters appeared from all directions, slowly making their way towards the campus. The sound of their leg shackles clinking against the ground produced a crisp and pleasant ringing. However, to the ears of the surviving teachers and students, this sound was no different from the sounds of hell
From her current performance, it is evident that Han Kexin's future strength is no mere coincidence; she is indeed a woman with the potential of a strong individual
Fatty, you stay still, I will go save him
Jiang Xiaowen let out a cry, "Xiao Yu, I'm worried!"
The surviving approximately 2,000 teachers and students fell into complete chaos, as hundreds of monsters rampantly hunted humans
Xiao Yu also clearly saw the appearance of that person, a faint smile appearing at the corner of his mouth: "Fatty, so you didn't die after all"
Jiang Xiaowen was so frightened that her delicate face turned pale. She hurriedly hid beside Xiao Yu, tightly clutching his clothes, her slender, fair legs trembling. The others also screamed in terror, fleeing in all directions. Some of them were even more frightened than Jiang Xiaowen, collapsing directly to the ground and losing control of their bladders. It is not fair to mock their cowardice, as the simultaneous appearance of dozens of previously unseen grotesque monsters in their line of sight was a tremendous visual shock for ordinary people
Ah, there really is a monster
I see, no wonder you are so fierce today; it turns out you have experience in killing these monsters and can level up!
No, do not come over, do not!
Han Kexin was the calmest among the crowd. Although she was equally pale with fear, she at least did not lose her ability to think. She slowly retreated behind Xiao Yu, as her intuition told her that it would be relatively safe by his side
Han Kexin quickly realized this and immediately shouted loudly to those around her: "Yes, he is right. Everyone, please do not panic, we must unite, unite!"
Wang Chao retreated to Xiao Yu's side, gripping a wooden stick covered in black blood and yellow brain matter. He pointed in surprise at a certain direction and exclaimed, "What the heck, isn't that Jin Shi? He's still alive. Damn it, that big fool is charging towards us, bringing at least twelve or thirteen little ones with him!"
This terrifying disaster struck so suddenly that anyone, no matter how strong their mental fortitude, would find it difficult to accept, leading to a mental short circuit. Xiao Yu had experienced it once and understood everyone's feelings. It was precisely because he had gone through it that he knew better than anyone else that this was not the time for fear. Call the police? What a joke, this is no longer Earth; it is even uncertain whether Earth still exists. Even if it does, there are hardly any humans left on it.
I did not expect that he also survived
This is different from the previous life; there shouldn't be so many... Could it be that by changing history, I have allowed many who were supposed to die in the earthquake to escape a calamity?" Xiao Yu tightened his grip on the sharpened wooden stick, a glimmer of light flashing in his eyes, "It doesn't matter; although the numbers have increased somewhat, they are ultimately just a group of lowly goblin slaves.
The vast majority of people were so frightened that they turned and ran, immediately filled with various exclamations, screams, and cries that echoed incessantly. The running speed of the goblin slaves was somewhat slower than that of ordinary people, yet they still quickly surged into the crowd
If time were to rewind fifteen minutes, most people would be in the classroom attending lessons as usual, or wandering aimlessly around the campus hand in hand with their girlfriends, enjoying the melodious music and the warm sunshine; everything would be so ordinary and tranquil
What should we do
Humanity is so fragile at this moment, almost on the brink of collapse
Accompanied by eerie cries, hundreds of monsters emerged from the forest at the edge of the campus. They were approximately 1.3 meters tall, with gray skin, emaciated bodies, and gaunt frames. Their heads had very few strands of hair, their ears were pointed, and their bulging eyes protruded outward, filled with sharp teeth. Yellow drool continuously dripped from the corners of their mouths. Their skin was covered in layers of wrinkles, resembling that of an elderly person in their eighties or nineties. They wore rusty shackles on their feet, were nearly naked, and held a broken wooden stick in their hands
Finally realizing that the monster was not as easy to deal with as it seemed, it was already too late. The goblin slave moved its wrist, and the wooden club swept out with incredible speed, striking him on the side of the face. Blood mist erupted, the skull shattered, and thick blood mixed with brain matter splattered everywhere. The goblin slave excitedly pounced on him, eagerly licking up the blood and brain matter, while the other monsters continued to chase after the others.
The goblin slave shouted loudly, swinging a club that shattered the stone into pieces, leaving the student stunned and his arms numb from the tremendous force.
Ah, ah! A monster is eating people, help!
... ...
Oh no
At this moment, a fierce gust of wind pressed against the back of the head
Horror, panic, despair
The goblin's skull shattered completely, and a small, nail-sized orb of light floated up and shot into Xiao Yu's forehead. Once again absorbing a surge of vital energy, at this moment, Xiao Yu's strength had been enhanced by at least fifty percent compared to the initial state.
Xiao Yu did not glance at her more than once, his gaze carrying a hint of admiration
"This is just a small test; everyone must overcome their fear. " Xiao Yu gripped the sharp wooden stick in his hand, his gaze slowly scanning the surroundings. "Upon closer inspection, the number of monsters is not that many, only about one-tenth of us. They are slow to react, lack intelligence, and are not very fast. As long as we conquer our fear, they are actually not difficult to deal with!"
Damn it, I saved you, and you still got me all covered in this stuff. Ugh, it really stinks. Don't forget, you owe me a life; I'll settle the score with you later!" That big fat guy, Wang Chao, stood up, vigorously wiping the black blood and yellow brain matter off his face. "Where on earth did these monsters come from..."
A surge of power immediately coursed through his body, causing his spirit to be momentarily shaken
Chirp, chirp
Under the siege of several hundred goblins, the casualties among the faculty and students of the school were quite severe. However, after a period of fear, many individuals like Wang Chao have emerged, daring to confront the goblins head-on. With everyone's tenacious resistance, the number of goblins has been steadily decreasing.
Even if history does not change, she will survive the earthquake. This woman, who embodies both sensuality and beauty, possesses a rare and extraordinary talent and potential, along with superhuman intelligence and ruthless means. In the future, she will rally and control a powerful force, standing tall above others, commanding the winds and clouds, and in her past life, she was known as the "Bloody Queen"
The terrified screams of people, the bloodthirsty roars of monsters, the sound of iron chains clashing against the ground, the sound of wooden sticks striking flesh and the cracking of bones, the pitiful moans of the dying, the sound of monsters devouring human flesh, together compose a demonic symphony
Xiao Yu smiled faintly, "Hell? What is hell? If one could live for another year, I believe you would gladly go to hell for an extended vacation"
Xiao Yu shouted and rushed towards Jin Shi
The conversation is not yet finished
Chirp, chirp, chirp
Who are you? Don't come over!
Giggling! A blood-stained wooden club wielded by a goblin nearby swept through the air with a fierce gust. Xiao Yu ducked to evade the attack, pushed off the ground with both legs, and collided into it, tumbling into a tangled heap several meters away.
Go to hell, monster
Ultimately, you will have to face it; I hope you can survive
Xiao Yu finished speaking and suddenly charged forward
Wuwu, go away, no, ahーー
Chirp, chirp
Wang Chao shouted angrily, lifted his leg, and kicked the little dwarf goblin to the ground, picking up a wooden stick from the ground to strike its head. ... One hit, two hits, three hits ... Wang Chao is known in the play for being single-minded; usually carefree and unrestrained, but once he becomes angry and takes action, he never considers the consequences, willing to harm himself three thousand to injure the enemy eight hundred, exhibiting extreme ruthlessness, which is why no one dares to provoke him
I have never witnessed such a bloody scene in my life; the sound of the screams was truly piercing, as sharp as a needle, sending chills throughout the body and causing the soul to tremble
Help!
Xiao Yu stepped on the face of the goblin slave, forcefully pulling out a wooden splinter, which drew forth a stream of black blood, causing the goblin to collapse limply. At that moment, a light sphere the size of a fingernail emerged from the corpse, transforming into a streak of light that shot into the center of his brow
Xiao Yu felt a chill in her heart
Han Kexin clearly saw a short student wearing glasses being pounced on by a monster. After being attacked, a large gash was bitten into his abdomen, and the monster reached inside, pulling out a long, bloody strip of flesh and frantically stuffing it into its mouth. The student was not yet dead, enduring a painful struggle between life and death, screaming loudly, "Ah—! Ah—!"
