I'm a monster in Demon King's Castle

The mountain of corpses bubbled with oil, the stench permeating the entire town.

Besides the thieves and dead townspeople that Li Yue had seen, the corpses above even included people who looked completely unlike those of this era.

Judging from their clothes and ornaments, these corpses were similar to the humans from the Steel City era; the difference was obvious when compared to the townspeople kneeling beside them.

Although the eras were different, the rate of decay for the corpses was similar, with most having rotted for about ten days.

Upon seeing the mountain of corpses, Li Yue subconsciously wanted to release the Bone Sea, but then suddenly realized that bone spurs, bone swords, and his lava right hand were embedded all over the mountain, like knives stuck into the corpses.

Then Li Yue noticed a piece of information.

【Killed a high-level demon, gained 1 Demon Point. Please confirm.】

The notification in his mind had been popping up for a long time, waiting for Li Yue's confirmation; memories flooded back, and Li Yue finally remembered what had happened during the "skipped" time.

When the three Sons of the Devil came to Red Oil Town, this mountain of corpses was slowly moving, like a paperhanger, stuffing one townsperson after another into its body.

Li Yue, in the "skipped" state, naturally analyzed and then killed the demon upon seeing it.

"That's all thanks to your Lord of the Library; I'm just doing my best to save people," Yingying couldn't help but tease.

"Hmm..." Having experienced it once before, Li Yue no longer overly expected You Yunke's treasure to be able to change time.

"There is a connection!" Li Yue shook his head, feeling quite regretful, then stared at the Devil Ribbon.

"There is a connection, right! Yi He and the Tas Empire's army are still ahead, and the back isn't safe!" Dandan activated its radar to clear the way for You Yun.

Moreover, Dandan felt that the feeling of waking up and seeing what it had done was very uninteresting.

Ideal Township was roaring—thanks to Yi He having unleashed two lightning storms, Li Yue's octopus tentacles had accumulated a lot of electricity, otherwise a single battery really wouldn't have been able to run so far.

"Isn't there a fun buff effect?" Dandan had enjoyed the "self-healing" buff and hoped Li Yue could give it a taste of ice and fire.

It was just that the faith was still there, the demon's actions were covered up, and the townspeople didn't notice, thinking it was a miracle.

Li Yue scratched his head, there was nothing he could do, he could only endure it.

"I don't care, buzz! I need more magic to supply!" Men Ke Keji roared at Destier.

"Let's try it," Yingying transformed into a little girl again and picked at O'Keeffe's treasure's nostrils.

Fortunately, the "Icefire Wheel" immersion was completed, proving that the method of using O'Keeffe's treasure's remaining magic was feasible.

However, this reminded Li Yue.

Did the Holy See know?

"If you want it, will you have it? What do you think you are? A God of Faith?" Destier scanned the parchment in his hand, "The arena is about to be destroyed, the arena's debts are getting bigger and bigger, I can't see how you can make up for it..."

With the collapse of faith, the existence of the Corpse-Gathering Demon was restored, and no longer restrained by the Sky Spine, it became a demon that backlashed against the townspeople until Li Yue happened to pass by and kill it.

In the "skipped" state, which was basically equivalent to being in autopilot, Li Yue instinctively killed the Corpse-Gathering Demon, without any extra actions.

Men Ke Keji in the side tent... was talking to a ball of chains.

"Anyway, it won't affect my progress in soaking the Devil Ribbon..."

When he opened his eyes again, Li Yue had already arrived at the side tent.

The townspeople broke the ice, picked up the embers, and carefully stuck them under the clay of the statue, with unparalleled piety.

It reluctantly unfolded the parchment, and the quill heavily marked the format.

Yingying was also looking forward to bringing O'Keeffe's treasure to life.

Li Yue didn't have to worry too much; the library had scholars Tom, the master craftsman Harry, and even the corpse of a Rain Man, no longer needing additional human slaves.

When the Sky Spine was still there, Li Yue couldn't analyze the Corpse-Gathering Demon at all, indicating that even the Demon Illustrated Handbook couldn't pierce the illusion of faith; now that the faith had collapsed and the demon had manifested, perhaps there were many demons like that within the Holy See's sphere of influence, waiting to be harvested.

"Are these people just left alone? They treat us like gods!" Dandan scurried around in the back seat, very excited.

It was just a pity that this remaining magic couldn't compress time, and it was simultaneously targeting eight Sons of the Devil including You Yun, Yingying, and Dandan...

"Let's set the next time to be when the Icefire Wheel is well-soaked; this time, let's stabilize it a bit and try to reach the seventh royal tent?" After proactively experiencing a "skip", Li Yue planned to adjust the anchored timestamp to avoid uncontrollable behavior when being in autopilot.

Li Yue thought it would be great if it only targeted himself.

The mountain of corpses was a type of demon called "Corpse-Gathering Demon," with the serial number 1517 in the Demon Illustrated Handbook, close to the Demon Chef of 1507.

"Skip a little more, skip directly to the time when Men Ke Keji's behavior in the side tent is reproduced," Yingying decided, "Maybe accumulating more 'time' will allow it to be compressed? It'll be easier to test out its usage."

Such as eating the townspeople.

It wasn't that, after the collapse of faith, Red Oil Town's only specialty didn't come from the Corpse-Gathering Demon.

"They have taken us as a new faith..." Yingying was no longer using Jessie's appearance, having grown tired of it, and instead transformed into an old man among the townspeople, obviously having deconstructed the townspeople's body structures during the autopilot process.

"It doesn't matter, we don't need it," Li Yue shook his head, not finding anything novel about being worshipped by the townspeople, "Let's leave it to the Red-Robed Priests, or Clive, or let them fend for themselves."

Upon closer inspection, it was the Devil Scribe Destier.

"Yes, I still have my gladiators! I still have myself!" Men Ke Keji shouted frantically.

After all, it was the only indestructible ultimate substance.

Thinking that the Holy See's wafers were made from this red oil, Li Yue suddenly felt that his original understanding of the Chaos Continent had become untrustworthy with the death of the Sky Spine.

Yingying recovered well.

"Just what I wanted..." Li Yue was about to drive the bone chariot when he suddenly stopped.

This surprised Li Yue because the serial number starting with "15" represented the Demon Kitchen, but the demon that should have been outside the Demon Kitchen appeared in Red Oil Town...

In the days after buffing "self-healing," Dandan recovered very well.

They were all taken away by the Corpse-Gathering Demon.

The Corpse-Gathering Demon's drop was "red oil."

"If you don't want it, should I demote it to a small pillar?" Dai You Yunke threw down the pen and closed the parchment.

"What are they doing?" Dandan pointed to the townspeople in the car bowing down and worshipping.

Some skillful townspeople were already using branches, stones, and mud to sculpt Ideal Township.

What had they restored or twisted into?

So the mountain of corpses in front of him... was actually the corpse of a demon.

"Let's go then!" Yingying re-pinched her face from an old man, transforming into the figure of a young boy in the town, her tone also changing accordingly, acting at this moment.

The icefire wheel spun, and Ideal Township sped away, leaving a track of ice and fire fusion in Red Oil Town.

How many towns and cities were built like this?

Li Yue couldn't imagine.

Thinking this, Li Yue changed a new set of wheels for Ideal Township, one side icing and the other side spitting fire, and the bone chariot suddenly came to life.

But Destier didn't seem to hear at all.

"Then let's continue, to the Belt River?" Li Yue prepared to follow suit, soaking the Devil Ribbon while traveling to the seventh royal tent.

As for how to develop and use the time accumulated on the O'Keeffe's treasure's dial after autopilot, he could slowly try.

The townspeople's thoughts were very simple for the benefactors who had eliminated the demon in the town; also, thanks to the well in the church, they had not been corroded into other appearances by the red mist.

Now, Li Yue also knew why the people who died in Red Oil Town disappeared on the seventh day.

And seeing Ideal Township restarting, the townspeople seemed to see a miracle, worshipping even more piously and begging the gods to bestow them with food and strength.
