Chapter 1

"Impossible! Heaven, are you toying with me!" With a wail of despair, Zhou Tian incredulously examined his body, unable to believe that such a thing could happen to him.

Just like in many novels, Zhou Tian, like many main characters who travel through time, accidentally got electrocuted while playing a game. As a result, for some unknown reason, he directly had his soul transported to another world.

Alright! Zhou Tian, who often read novels in his spare time, had also thought about time travel before. If it were just time travel, it wouldn't be something he couldn't accept. However, Zhou Tian did indeed travel through time, but he ended up in the game world he was playing. Even more unacceptable to Zhou Tian was that he had actually been reincarnated as a wild monster.

What are wild monsters? They are the unfortunate group that provides money, experience, and equipment to new players. Now, suddenly finding himself as a member of that unfortunate group, Zhou Tian naturally couldn't be in a good mood.

However, since Zhou Tian had already traveled through time, the world wouldn't change just because he opposed it. Unless he committed suicide, Zhou Tian could only obediently be a wild monster.

Suicide was something Zhou Tian never considered from the beginning. Even if he had to survive as a wild monster, Zhou Tian would never make the decision to give up his life. Therefore, after traveling to the game world, Zhou Tian quickly accepted his current identity after the initial period.

"The most important thing now is to avoid those players. Otherwise, if I accidentally run into them, it might be dangerous." Zhou Tian, who had once been a player, knew very well what posed the greatest threat to wild monsters. After accepting his new identity, he immediately started moving towards areas with fewer people in his memory.

"My current identity is a Level 1 wild monster, a Beast Slave. If I keep this identity, I probably won't live very long. After all, there are always many players, and if I'm unlucky and run into one, it could be dangerous." While agonizing over his identity, Zhou Tian slowly left the area he had initially stayed in.

However, what Zhou Tian didn't expect was that after leaving that area, he quickly encountered new trouble.

"Roar!" Suddenly hearing a roar, Zhou Tian instinctively looked up and saw a black shadow pass by, followed by a sharp pain.

"You are not allowed to leave your patrol area." Although Zhou Tian didn't understand the language of the monsters, for some reason, he immediately understood the meaning of the half-orc's words.

At first, Zhou Tian didn't intend to pay attention to the half-orc. However, when he sensed the killing intent from the half-orc, he had no choice but to retreat.

After calming down, Zhou Tian realized that the monsters in the game had their own territories and generally wouldn't leave those areas easily. Therefore, the half-orc's behavior was a restriction on the monsters. Before transforming into another wild monster, Zhou Tian's activity area would likely be limited to the territories where Beast Slaves existed in the game.

When Zhou Tian understood this situation, his expression naturally turned grim. Initially, Zhou Tian had planned to escape, but now that he had just taken action, he was forced to retreat, which naturally didn't improve his mood.

With a dejected look, Zhou Tian turned around and headed back to the place where he had been hiding.

However, to his surprise, shortly after turning around, Zhou Tian sensed that the number of Beast Slaves around him had rapidly decreased.

Unlike the few Beast Slaves shown on the computer screen, in the world where Zhou Tian was, as the lowest-level wild monsters, the number of Beast Slaves was not as few as displayed. In the area where Zhou Tian was, there were probably tens of thousands of Beast Slaves. Therefore, for Zhou Tian to feel a decrease in the number of Beast Slaves, a significant number must have disappeared.

Instinctively, based on the situation, Zhou Tian immediately felt a mysterious threat. Given his nature, in such a situation, Zhou Tian should have chosen to run away without hesitation.

However, in reality, Zhou Tian did not do so. Whether it was due to a change in his personality or the influence of his identity as a Beast Slave, when Zhou Tian sensed the danger, he did not choose to leave but instead cautiously approached the source of the threat.

After a while, Zhou Tian finally saw the 'thing' that threatened his safety.

To Zhou Tian's surprise, he originally thought that the only ones who could threaten him in his current identity were the players. However, when he arrived at the location, he discovered that the ones slaughtering the Beast Slaves were not players but a group of NPCs.

Watching the NPC army continuously charge through the Beast Slaves, Zhou Tian's heart rate involuntarily quickened.

Only after discovering that the NPCs, who were just supporting characters in the game, were actually besieging the Beast Slaves did Zhou Tian feel that he had truly been reborn as a monster.

The game's background was a world where various monsters and NPCs fought for world dominance. Although in the game, players only fought various monsters, and NPCs only played a minor role, the scene Zhou Tian saw was very similar to the game's introduction.

"Perhaps the place I'm in isn't just a simple game. It might really be a different world." When Zhou Tian had this thought, his originally calm heart was directly impacted.

"Regardless, whether it's a game or a different world, this isn't the time to consider such things. I should think about how to deal
