Is it Wrong to Copy Abilities in Apocalypse?

[You still want to know what happened to those who didn't follow my advice?]

The system's words still echoed in the minds of the humans, who regretted the fact that they followed the system's words and entered the dome.

Right now, they are thankful that they listened to the system.

For the first time, they were feeling grateful toward the system, but their relief didn't last for long….

*Clang**Tang*....

The sound of some weapons clashing against a hard metallic surface was heard from different directions.

The atmosphere, which had turned a bit relaxing, became tense again.

The bodies of the human lying on the ground tensed as their heads mechanically moved toward the system, only to find her grinning at them….

[What? Did you think that the tutorial was going to stop?

Nuh-uh, that's never going to happen.

The tutorial and the scenarios would never stop for anyone, no matter how tired or injured you are.]

The system paused a bit as her grin widened.

[The only thing that will change is the death rate in the following scenario, nothing else.]

All the grateful feelings the humans felt toward the system were gone when they saw her grinning like a devil.

But before they could even move, their bodies tensed.

All of them saw the system's eyes, shining with glee and excitement as she snapped her finger.

*Snap*

A single snap reverberated throughout the dome.

Tension is palpable in the atmosphere.

All of the clashing sounds created by the weapons being smashed on the barrier paused.

The next moment...

"Krrrrrr…"

All of them heard a sharp growl.

Their heads snapped in the direction of the growl and there they saw it…

"Is that a goblin?"

A woman asked as she scrunched her nose in disgust.

All of them could see the barrier at one spot disappear, creating an empty space of around 1.5 meters in height.

But what caused them all to have a look of disgust was the creature that was exposed to their sight.

That creature seemed to be confused at the sudden disappearance of the barrier, as it was still trying to hit the air in front of him, thinking that the barrier was still there.

[You better hurry up; that thing is not as weak as it looks.]

The system, although reluctant, still advised the humans who were slowly trying to get up.

She didn't want to say it, as she wanted to see them suffer, but she had to follow the protocol and warn them at least once.

And she sighed as she saw the humans taking her advice seriously.

Everyone, be it the lady, Rohit, Garvit, Shera, or Alex, had their muscles contracted as they seriously looked at the goblin.

Scrawny, long limbs, long nose with hair peeking out of its holes, pointy ears filled with dirt, a body with little to no clothes, only covering its neither region and a protruding tummy.

The goblin looked ugly, no doubt about it, and the green skin of that thing just made it look worse.

It was so bad that they would rather not look at it, but listening to the system's words, every single one of them solemnly looked at the goblin.

Only once did the system warn them before, and just because they were a bit late in their reaction, they lost three people, so this time, they moved without a second's delay.

No matter how tired or exhausted they felt on the inside, they still stood up. Ready to face the goblin, who was now looking at them.

The goblin stared at them for a while before its lips parted, giving them a view of its rotten teeth, but….

"Kreaaaaaaaa!"

The goblin yelled as droll dropped from its parted lips.

That scream was filled with excitement, hunger, and lust….

Its eyes were fixed on the women among the humans, causing the women to feel a chill up their spine.

Just the way it looked at them was enough to make them have goosebumps because of disgust.

"Krrrrrr…"

"Kekkkkk!"

But soon, they realized the reason for its earlier shout.

'It was calling for its friends…'

Alex muttered inwardly as he gripped his dagger, his eyes fixed on the spot where the goblin was standing.

Unlike others, he never underestimated the goblin.

By now, he already knew that these tutorials were helping them learn how to survive.

The first one was probably for them to learn how to kill, now this is the second one, and although the tutorial said that it was for teamwork, Alex felt like it was to introduce them to the real monster.

This time, there was no notice saying that the power of the monster was going to be suppressed, after all.

So, he was as serious as he could.

Garvit and Shera were the same.

But their reason was a bit different than Alex's.

'If he's making a somber expression, then this goblin must be strong.'

This is what Garvit thought the moment he saw Alex's cold eyes staring at the goblin solemnly.

Everyone inside the dome stared at the same spot as they heard the rushing footsteps moving toward the first goblin, and the mentioned goblin slowly started moving in at them.

"Jejejeje…."

It giggled with a creepy grin as it licked its lips, looking at the women with unrestrained lust.

And soon….

"Kekekekek…."

"Gegegegege…."

"Hehehehe…."

Three more voices were heard as they all saw three goblins walking in the dome from the same gap in the barrier with the same creepy grins on the corner of their lips.

The humans already had some makeshift weapons—some things they'd picked up from the debris the moment they heard the system's warning.

So, the moment they saw more goblins, they had their weapons gripped tightly.

The weaker ones trembled as they slowly started feeling the pressure.

If the system never warned them, then they would've gotten themselves killed because of underestimating the goblins, but right now...

'They are too stiff…'

Alex shook his head inwardly as he saw everyone trembling as they stared at the goblins.

The system's warning had increased the pressure they should've felt by many folds.

Speaking of the system...

Alex slowly turned toward the system, only to find her staring at him with a devilish grin before she snapped her fingers again.

*Snap*

Another snap echoed through the dome, even the goblins stopped and looked at the surroundings, seemingly not being able to find the source of the snap.

The humans, however, felt their hearts beating violently.

A bad premonition gripped their hearts as they heard the snap.

Alex's eyes sharpened as he saw that, but soon he knew the reason why she snapped her fingers.

"Kreek?"

"Krrrr?"

"Krooo…"

"Kriiiiii!"

....

….

..

.

Soon, the confused, wonder-filled, excited, gleeful, and lust-filled voices of goblins were heard from different directions.

The human had their bodies moving stiffly as their eyes surveyed the surroundings.

But soon, their eyes were filled with despair as they found out that there were more than 6 tears in the barrier, letting the goblins inside.

[I can't just let you guys have it easy, you know.

That would destroy the whole purpose of the tutorial.]

The system uttered with a grin; her eyes filled with elation as she looked at the despair-filled eyes of the humans.

But she soon realized that not all humans are as weak-willed as she thought.

"Everyone, get it together!

We have the points we earned in the last tutorial; use them to upgrade one of your stats and form a team of three, two, or whatever you want!

Just cover each other's backs!

The goblins can only be level 1 or 2, as the system had said before.

So, we can survive this!

Believe in yourself!"

Rohit, who had a rod in his hand, shouted as he stared at the goblins moving toward them fearlessly.

[Tsk.]

The system just clicked her tongue as she saw the eyes of the human slowly gaining hope.

[Whatever, let's see how many of you survive.]

The system uttered dismissively before she disappeared from her spot.
