I'm a monster in Demon King's Castle
#308 - The only prey
The Brave Registry integrated the recent brave individuals who explored the Demon King's Castle, and gave a ranking based on their performance and reputation.
Perhaps it was due to the family's status, but the first on the list was surprisingly Jessie Kingston. The record in the Deeds column stated that she cleared the Colosseum for the first time and killed an army of fly demons in their egg sacs.
Li Yue thought about it carefully, and it wasn't wrong.
The second on the list was the mysterious demon hunter Van Helsing. He teamed up with Jessie and shared some of her achievements.

Next, there were a few names that Li Yue was familiar with—Rain Man, Sawyer, Hannibal... Obviously, that Lamont family fanboy had been performing well these past few days, taking the heads of several high-level demons, and together with Rain Man, resisting the counterattack from the cesspool inside the Black Gate.
Apart from that, no other brave individuals were on the list, which also indirectly confirmed that the main activity area of the brave individuals was still concentrated near the Colosseum.
The brave individuals in other areas showed no signs of survival.
All the brave individuals present also believed that Hunteral, the 8th-order hunter who would come out of the teleportation portal later, would definitely ascend to the top of the new list with his fierce achievements.
"Mr. Hannibal, what path do you follow? How did you become so powerful?" Harry found a wooden box and stood on it, asking cautiously.
"Isn't this a secret that belongs to the brave themselves? Or... are you not a newsboy now, but a reporter? Wanting exclusive news?"
"Those Years' new style? It should be..." Li Yue muttered, "Like Jessie Kingston and the hunters and thieves who are not present, we all follow the path from behind, which is a broken and gradually declining class..."
Suddenly, a person rushed out of the tent next to the teleportation portal, holding hundreds of glowing gravel in his hand, and whispered: "Teleportation stones! Teleportation stones!"
"You heard that I came this time to advance to the 9th-order Hunter King? To complete some kind of ritual? You understand the path of hunters and explorers too well."
Although the function of the teleportation stone is a bit useless, having a few stones means having a few more paths. If you want it, you want it. Anyway, there is no contract signed, and Marco can choose not to fulfill his promise.
That big newsboy from Hunter Country is always better informed than Marco.
"This contract? Did I not give it to you...?" Harry's face was full of smiles, but he suddenly stopped halfway through his words and obediently handed the teleportation stone to Marco.
"It is known to many people that Mr. Hannibal has merged the paths of hunters and explorers, and has undergone extraordinary trials, so he has also gained more power."
Li Yue's heart also had some criticism of the leader of Hunter Country. Perhaps, with many years of wisdom, whether there is justice in Hunter Country is not something that can be easily said.
Zhi Shan had just used the Staff of Deception to deceive Harry and Zhi Shan—in their minds, the contract had not yet been completed.
"Well... okay." Marco reached out to take it.
Ending this small interlude, Marco refocused his gaze on the crowd, and saw a distortion in the space of the teleportation portal.
"What's going on here?" Marco asked Li Yue.
Soon, the teleportation stones in Harry's hand were snatched away, and the crowd quickly dispersed.
"Oh, it's a new business of the Chamber of Commerce. With the teleportation stone, you can follow Mr. Hannibal to the eighth dangerous area and not miss the opening of the White Gate and the first exploration of the deepest part of the Colosseum." Li Yue really understood.
Marco was about to take out a magic stone, but Zhi Shan stopped him again.
"Hey, who knows, anyway, if the Colosseum is breached by Hunter Country, then this place can become a base camp for humans to counterattack the Demon King's Castle, and Hunter Country's position on the mainland will also be improved. Maybe I'll really become an apprentice or something... Anyway, it's a good thing." As a human, Li Yue certainly hopes that all the demons will die.
"He really is here. Don't say I didn't take care of you. This is a teleportation stone specially reserved for the strong. You can freely pass through the eight dangerous areas and the square teleportation portal. Do you want it?"
Zhi Shan probably understood what Li Yue meant. To put it bluntly, it's just that Trall, Rain Man, and Sawyer's fighting styles and skills are relatively strange and do not belong to the category of conventional paths.
"Fusion path?" Marco felt unfamiliar with this term.
Hunter and explorer...
That also reminded Marco that in the future, he could forcefully categorize some paths like "Doctor" and "Demon Hunter" to amuse the brave individuals.
"Have you seen the next issue of 'Events in the Demon King's Castle'?" Li Yue winked at Marco.
【Mr. Hannibal's goal is the human kingdom, but not to be the king of demons...】
The two were silent.
After inquiring about the key materials needed for Zhi Shan Hong's advancement, Marco pondered it, unsure whether the "Unique Prey" was a certain "unique" existence in the world, or whether it referred to a specific hunting target for Hannibal.
The broker Harry patted his sleeves, saw Marco, and ran over sneakily with bright eyes.
"Mr. Zhi Shan Hong, I'm joking with you." Li Yue waved his hand, indicating no.
Even many mature brave individuals don't think so.
"I want to book one of his medical services." Harry winked.
Marco hoped it was the former, but was also unsure whether this hunting target was Beelzebub or the King of the Colosseum, Oogiboogey.
In the center of the square, the flickering of the teleportation portal intensified, and vaguely some figures appeared inside.
"Uh... that..."
The rumor had grown from a small seed to a behemoth constantly absorbing greed, and was continuing to ferment.
Sure enough, on the large page behind, Zhi Shan found a report with a sensational headline: "Shocking! Is there a huge treasure in the deepest part of the Colosseum? The brave individuals are taking action!"
"Of course!" Speaking of Zhi Shan Hong, Li Yue was a little proud.
"That's great." Marco sincerely sighed.
"But like you, and Rain Man, Sawyer, and Van Helsing... it seems that there is no clear path." Li Yue said affectedly, quoting many of the remarks made by other brave individuals during discussions, "Either they are the creators of the path, or they are like Mr. Hannibal, merging other paths."
Zhi Shan endured the prankish impulse to interrupt the teleportation portal's spell with a pebble, and finally saw the person walking out of the door.
"What path has Hannibal merged?" Marco asked, while using the Eye of Aberration to see through the crowd.
"Oh..." For Marco, there was no difference between going to the eighth district or teleporting there, and there was no need to squeeze over there.
【The opening of the White Gate must be a fierce battle, I have to keep a trump card... This doctor's surgery is very magical, it is the best choice.】
"So that Mr. Zhi Shan Hong... is the most powerful brave individual in your Hunter Country?" More than half of the brave individuals in the square gathered at the teleportation portal. Marco had nothing to do, so he continued to inquire.
"I don't know, but if he can solve the White Gate that has troubled the brave individuals for so long!"
Marco looked from afar and found the person a little familiar—it was the broker Harry he had met in the square at the beginning.
"Hehe." Li Yue scratched his bird's nest head awkwardly, "I'm a little curious, because we all say that you are also a brave individual who merges paths..."
Li Yue said, throwing a magic stone to Harry, taking out a copy of "Events in the Demon King's Castle" from his bag, and flipping through it.
"What do you want?" Marco looked at the teleportation stone that emitted a fantasy light, and was uninterested.
Zhi Shan silently noted it down.
He didn't know how he had sneaked into the Hunter Country's camp.
Hearing Harry's low cry, a large portion of the brave individuals surrounding the teleportation portal went to him, mostly special brave individuals who were not from Hunter Country.
"By the way, if he succeeds in advancing, will he hunt down the Demon King and perhaps quell this war?"
"I only know that the key material for Mr. Hannibal's advancement is a certain 'Unique Prey'. The Demon King should also be considered a unique prey, right? That said, Mr. Zhi Shan Hong may go to find the Demon King..." Li Yue still held a glimmer of hope for this.
In other words, Hannibal is not like the hunters he has encountered so far, who only know some simple hunting-related skills.
