Anime: About That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime

On the grayish-white, colorless rock wall, grew dark green moss. A viscous, pitch-black liquid dripped continuously from above. At the base of the wall, on the worn steps, thumb-sized purple mushrooms sprouted from cracks etched by corrosion.

Pitter-patter! Pitter-patter!

A strange sound suddenly echoed in the dim space. Soon after, a deep blue slime appeared, its jelly-like body bouncing as it moved forward.

"Not bad, there are some here too."

Before long, Lu Minghao stopped in front of these few colorful mushrooms. Skillfully, he enveloped them within his body, dissolving them. Immediately, a faint purple hue appeared on Lu Minghao's originally blue body, and his magic essence strengthened slightly.

Poisonous mushrooms. Lu Minghao had discovered these things accidentally a few days ago. After devouring them, not only did they provide Lu Minghao with a large amount of nutrients and a slight increase in magic essence, but they also gave Lu Minghao his first offensive ability: 'Poison'.

After discovering the effect of the poisonous mushrooms, Lu Minghao had been searching non-stop in the sewer where he was born for the past few days. As for these few here, they should be the last poisonous mushrooms nearby.

"Speaking of which, I should be the strongest slime in this area now."

After absorbing the last few poisonous mushrooms, Lu Minghao turned around and looked at the other slimes in the sewer behind him. Relying on his gluttony ability and the poisonous mushrooms, Lu Minghao had recently begun to grow rapidly. The magic essence that had just been born in his body had also increased several times.

Moreover, in addition to magic essence, Lu Minghao had also tried out his new ability recently. A single drop of venom, only the size of a raindrop, directly corroded a basketball-sized pit in the ground. Even the slimes nearby died instantly just by being exposed to the lingering poisonous gas.

At that time, even Lu Minghao was taken aback by his own toxicity, completely unexpected that it would be so terrifying. Not to mention the outrageous corrosiveness, just the toxicity alone would probably kill ordinary people on the spot within seconds.

After witnessing the power of his own toxicity, Lu Minghao, in order to prevent the annihilation of all the slimes in the vicinity except himself, directly ate all the corroded ground, and also laid to rest those slimes that had been poisoned to death.

"It's time to leave. Staying here can no longer satisfy my growth needs."

The next moment, Lu Minghao looked at a small mountain of garbage not far away. At the top of the mountain was a man-sized gap, which was the exit from this sewer. Lu Minghao had already discovered it two days ago, but at that time he was busy searching for poisonous mushrooms everywhere.

And now, the poisonous mushrooms in this sewer had been completely devoured by him. In addition, even the rocks, plants, old weapons, and even the bones of unknown creatures in the entire sewer had been eaten. All that remained were the walls, dirt, and filthy garbage.

In other words, in less than half a month since Lu Minghao was born, this sewer had been almost emptied by his bottomless gluttony and digestive power. Next, unless Lu Minghao gave up on rapid growth and chose to eat dirt, he would have to leave this place.

In fact, in addition to this, Lu Minghao had another option, which was to devour all the slimes here, his own kind. However, Lu Minghao gave up on this option. After all, they were his own kind. If it were slimes from other places, then Lu Minghao wouldn't mind doing so, but as for them, he decided to let it go.

"I'm leaving. If I have the chance in the future, I'll come back and see you."

Saying that, Lu Minghao jumped directly towards the pile of garbage. His elastic body jumped to the gap in a few leaps. Finally, he looked back at these compatriots, and a trace of complex emotions arose in Lu Minghao's heart.

In his previous life, he was indeed human, but now he was a slime. And the slimes below were, in a sense, his only relatives, but his own inner thoughts gave Lu Minghao a sense of incompatibility.

"The current me is a demon!"

The next moment, Lu Minghao looked at his sky-blue, jelly-like body, and his heart began to change slightly. Regardless of what he was in the past, he was now just a slime. As for treating himself as a human just because he was a human in his previous life, that was completely impossible.

Not to mention that he was now just a slime, and if he was discovered by humans, they would kill him without hesitation. What's more, whether the humans in this world had the same structure as the humans in his previous world was still a question.

"I'm just a slime who wants to survive!"

Finally, he looked at his carefree compatriots behind him. Lu Minghao directly left the sewer where he was born. As for these compatriots, it was better to let them live here. That filthy and smelly sewer, which even goblins嫌弃, was a paradise for weak slimes.

.......

The grayish-white rock wall, devoid of color, was covered with cracks corroded by time. On the damp and slippery sewer floor, Lu Minghao was carefully moving his body forward. On the side, all kinds of garbage and filth floated on the foul-smelling sewer water.

This was exactly the scene Lu Minghao saw after leaving the sewer where he was born. Moreover, according to Lu Minghao's observation, the sewer where he was born should have been located downstream, a gathering place for large amounts of garbage and filth.

However, precisely because of this, that foul-smelling, filthy, and even toxic place became a paradise for slimes. After all, in that environment, besides slimes and insects, even goblins could hardly survive. After all, goblins also needed some normal food.

"This is?"

Suddenly, Lu Minghao, who was moving forward, heard a rustling sound coming from a distance. Moreover, according to the vibration of the air and the sound that was transmitted, there was obviously more than just one. And judging by the looks of it, it was very likely that they were running towards the direction where Lu Minghao was.

"What exactly is it? Logically speaking, I've only just left the sewer where I was born."

Lu Minghao looked at the front where the movement was coming from. Although he was very doubtful in his heart, his body was still very honest as he crawled towards the corner. Then, his liquid body directly squeezed into a crack, secretly sizing up the direction from which the sound came.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"

Before long, several giant rats the size of house cats appeared in Lu Minghao's field of vision. It was unknown whether it was because of the influence of magic essence or because the sewer was too suitable for rats to live in, but each and every one of them was so fat.

However, the giant rats at this time had no idea that there was a slime observing them in the corner. They were just running forward in a panic, seemingly frightened by something, and one of the giant rats clearly had wounds on its body.
