I'm a monster in Demon King's Castle
#149 - The most dangerous time
After a moment of headache, Li Yue calmed down and knew that he still had to go to the closed-door battle training to fleece those instructors—basically, it would be enough to let an instructor of Blood River's level want to kill him fifty times. Google search reading
The premise is that they won't really kill… …
In any case, Li Yue has at least temporarily solved the problem of "what to wear" for the fourth round of the Slaughter Cup. Next, he only needs to sign contracts with the brain spirits one by one, and then try his best to collect malice… …
This half month will be a half month of tension, busyness, and constant adjustments… …
But even with such an expectation, Li Yue still didn't expect the subsequent developments to be so bizarre.
First of all, Dan Dan and Yingying, the big mouths, inadvertently mentioned the news that they would be participating in the fourth round of the Slaughter Cup during the closed-door battle training. Immediately afterwards, Nate Mayer and Mai Mai became interested in the Jackal family.
Nate Mayer wanted to improve Yingying, Dan Dan, and "Skorlik's" favorability, while Mai Mai had long heard that the Jackal family had several good demon relics and was also very interested in "betting" on the Slaughter Cup.
Nate Mayer and Mai Mai expressed their intention to participate in the war, and Damon Benben, who loved to watch the excitement, would certainly not give up this opportunity, clamoring to apply to the Demon King Mentor Mentuo; even more rare is that Reid Court, the red-robed priest who has always had a very low sense of existence… …suddenly also expressed his desire to use the fourth round of the Slaughter Cup to carry out some kind of ritual.
Finally, there was Pico, who was self-isolating in the bedroom making desserts… …and was also forced to join by Damon Benben.
Overnight, all the Demon Sons wanted to take the opportunity to go out and relax.
So the fourth round of the Slaughter Cup seemed to have become the graduation ceremony of the closed-door battle training, attracting all the Demon Sons—they attempted to collectively apply to Mentuo in the next "Advancement Studies" and threaten to kill a mentor of a certain subject.
Li Yue was uncertain about three things.
First, whether the Demon King Mentor Mentuo would let people go; second, which mentor these Demon Sons could kill together; and third… …is this a threat to Mentuo?
Mentuo only needs to change the rules of the closed-door battle training to completely prohibit injuries, wouldn't that be good? Everyone is happy.
As for whether O'Keefe Boogie will allow the Demon Sons to participate in the Slaughter Cup… …Li Yue is optimistic, not because he is optimistic that the Gambling Demon will agree, but because he will not go against Budibooge's wishes before the fifth round, even if the King of the Colosseum is unwilling, he can only be forced to accept it.
Secondly, the work of signing contracts with the brain spirits is also progressing steadily… …
Synthes snails have long been enough, and the remaining two items, "Demon Bat Wings" and "Striped Gecko Feces", have also been delivered by the dining car.
As for the missing ones, Li Yue asked the first batch of "Little Quarrels" to forcibly capture them when they went out—the method of capture is very simple, as long as the first batch of "Little Quarrels" who went out are taught to use gillnets, they can be caught on the window sills and abandoned corridors and holes throughout the Labyrinth Corridor, and simple cutting can produce "Demon Bat Wings."
As for the striped gecko… …Li Yue had already learned about their habitat in the vegetable garden. On the first day, he ordered the "Little Quarrels" to catch 7 of them and raise them in the upper caves of the library, feeding them the best meat that the head chef gave to Pico, and then specially arranging a Mini Minnie to collect their feces.
Although this Mini Minnie occasionally steals striped geckos, it can generally ensure a steady output of feces—as long as the surviving striped geckos are fed well, it is not a problem to pull them to exhaustion; besides, there are "Little Quarrels" who can continue to replenish them.
And those brain spirits who successfully signed a low-level demon contract with Li Yue quickly began to practice the predation methods of the "Slaughter Sea Butterfly" with Li Yue.
The upper cave of the library has become the martial arts training ground for the brain spirits, rehearsing the formation of the "Slaughter Sea Butterfly" every day; the scale of the battle formation is divided into large, medium, and small, depending on the number of brain spirits participating, and the difficulty of the practice is gradually increased until the large formation with 61 brain spirits participating together is satisfied.
Seeing that the progress was good, Li Yue was a little gratified and a little dazed—are these the brain spirits who were like walking corpses back then? They can also devote themselves to the construction of the library and find more ways to use them… …
After the brain spirits have survived long enough, some changes have also occurred, and their respective personalities have gradually emerged.
Those who are jumpy and active, wearing "Little Quarrels" when they go out, will always get more malice and be able to overfulfill the tasks arranged by Li Yue; those who are silent and rigorous can always take the initiative to cooperate steadily in the "Slaughter Sea Butterfly" battle formation, so that the formation can be turned around without worry and automatically "completed".
Li Yue couldn't help but sigh that the brain spirits… …were delayed by Budibooge… …
Although Budibooge himself is still the so-called "Lord of the Brain Spirits", his power has been completely stolen by Li Yue after a "ritual", leaving only a title conferred by a certain Demon King.
The candlelight between the thrones has also been straightened again, and its state has not changed in any way—Li Yue is also a brain spirit, and the library is still the library of the brain spirits.
Having control of the library, Li Yue also really gained several benefits—the first is that he can more efficiently change the terrain of the library, shortening the construction cycle of Mini Minnie and the brain spirits.
Moreover, Li Yue doesn't even need to leave the upper cave to view everything that happens in the library, just like opening a surveillance camera, and the real-time image unfolds at will.
Perhaps, that's how Budibooge observed everything in the library back then, but unfortunately there is no playback function.
In addition, Li Yue also controls the magic power distribution of the library, mercifully allowing the weak brain spirits and Mini Minnie to be nourished by magic power and gain their own growth… …
Of course, this is limited to those brain spirits who have signed a soul contract—these are the future combat power of the library.
Overall, the development of the library is still within Li Yue's expectations, without too much deviation.
However, it is also in the recent news of the library that all the Mini Minnie and the brain spirits who went out to collect malice have reported the same thing—outside the door of the library, there is a strange, strong skeleton waiting, silently observing the entry and exit of the dining car and the brain spirits, but it does not provide any malice.
At that time, Li Yue was busy exploring the cloak during Green Time and Blue Time, soaking the particles of Dan Dan, and signing contracts with the brain spirits… …During Red Time, he had to go to the closed-door battle training to fleece the instructors, so he never found a good opportunity to ask what the skeleton's purpose was.
But since he is just silently waiting outside the library to watch, Li Yue felt that there was no need to make extra trouble for the time being—as long as he doesn't affect the brain spirits' collection of malice outside.
After Li Yue's unremitting efforts, he also successfully discovered that among the instructors in the closed-door battle training, Isaac, who teaches "Hero Studies", Horanisang, who teaches "Human History", and Gossipsip, who teaches "Mysterious Biology", have relatively large emotional fluctuations, and they are unable to harm the Demon Sons due to Mentuo's newly added creeds, making them perfect "fleece targets".
Yes, Mentuo limited the actions of the instructors under the pretext of "excessive casualties of the Demon Sons", making them unable to harm the Demon Sons, and also "fulfilled" Li Yue's fleecing to some extent.
So, with the blessing of "Abominable", Li Yue was able to harvest tens of thousands of malice in each of these three classes; and the instructors of these three classes now, of course, hate Li Yue to the "bone".
Just like the ghost ship captain "Gossipsip" has threatened Li Yue more than once, waiting for the end of the closed-door battle training… …to put this bastard's skeleton into the freezer, freeze it for a thousand years, and be with the sludge.
Li Yue didn't have too many objections to this—at least the freezer is full of magical mysterious creatures, whether it is to enrich the Demon Illustrated Book or to stimulate more transformation inspiration for the Demon Blueprint, it is a good place to go.
It's just… …
A thousand years is too long, seize the day.
Fleece as much wool as you can, the more you fleece, the thicker it grows.
Of course, Li Yue also deliberately avoided two kinds of classes after distinguishing which classes had wool to fleece—"Humanity's Fall" and "Death Edict".
The reason for rejecting the former is that Li Yue is not willing to enter the dream with Bao'er, while the latter is because the course is too monotonous, and the Wraith Aggregate always wants to follow Li Yue, and there is no malice output.
The Wraith Aggregate's explanation for this is: "I can see a lot of slaughter on you, and I will collect a lot of materials."
Li Yue politely declined, so after the second "Death Edict" class, he never went to class again, and spent the rest of his time in the upper cave of the library, doing his own homework while training his subordinates.
On a certain moonlit Green Time, Li Yue leaned on the bath pool built for the Mini Minnie, directing 36 brain spirits wearing "Slaughter Sea Butterfly" armor to divide into 6 groups, rehearsing small-scale formations, while watching Feifei scrub Lulu's back, washing away the drowsiness of the night and returning to a comfortable state.
This is Li Yue's rare rest time, although it is very short.
"Ah, it's so comfortable… …a little lower, a little lower… …come back a little bit… …" Lulu instructed Feifei, showing the noble status of the Left Protector.
"Yes, yes, yes, that's it, I'll give you a kiss as a reward." Lulu stretched out her mouth and kissed Feifei, making Li Yue feel very greasy.
"Brother, these days are so comfortable, thank you for saving us… …" Seeing that Li Yue changed his posture and turned his head away, Lulu hurriedly gave Li Yue a kiss too.
"Comfortable… …is it?" Li Yue was noncommittal, and his bone hand reached into the bath pool, stirring up a pool of ripples.
"Remember, every moment of ours is the most dangerous time."
