I'm a monster in Demon King's Castle

#596 - Song of Flesh and Soul

Under the compression of the Bone City, Jiasuo III further collapsed, and a ruin stretching about a kilometer long cracked between the fortress and the Bone City.

The reception hall was exposed directly in front of the Bone City. Noel, under the protection of the Royal Guards, stared intently at the battlefield.

He was restless, but unable to move.

Fortunately, a hundred Imperial legions blocked the way in time.

The Cloth Bag Demon, Shadow, and Egg rotated their bodies, dancing in the ocean of the living and the dead.

Most of the time, Shadow was a spear, poking the enemies in front of it into crumpled shadows, crushing their flesh along with them.

From time to time, Shadow acted as a shield, curling into a tangled, grid-like mess of shadows, connecting with Egg to form a hammer, directly smashing those who blocked the way into mincemeat, or drilling them into a pool of bloody mud.

Occasionally, Shadow and Egg would also become the "people" controlling Li Yue, with Egg's head and Shadow's body, wielding the Cloth Bag; the Cloth Bag stirred up a vast sea of bones, eyeballs, and tentacles, smearing the corpses and flesh of enemies on the bone walls and the ground.

The three Demon Princes constantly rotated, sometimes as spear, shield, and cloth bag, sometimes as shadow ball, hammer, and drill, and sometimes as Egg-headed people brandishing the bone sea.

This was completely beyond human comprehension.

Accompanied by a buzzing sound, a double-sword emblem hung directly below the birdcage, the candlelight beside it flickering like stars.

Along with the surging demonic tide, Yihé and the Seven-Winged Angels were also about to arrive behind the Demon Princes.

The Seven-Winged Angels and Yihé were rushing towards the light spot.

Just finding Wallace's thread, deceiving me for a moment, might be able to temporarily cut off the faith and paralyze all the dark wandering souls.

The entire battlefield became the Demon King City's arena.

It's just that both sides' sources of troops are endless, and the numbers are completely symmetrical. Sometimes the Imperial legions surge, sometimes the demonic tide surges. With both bone mages and holy knights present, the resurrection of miscellaneous soldiers becomes common, and the number of the living and the dead is always equal.

Small batches of Imperial troops died, and even more were blocked by wandering souls on Chang Yike's escape route.

"The things of the Creation Department must also die…"

The Bone City, Jiasuo VIII, and the crack where the original Demon King City was located were all put into the birdcage, bound into a dead place with no way to escape.

"Still using that? Can it hold Yihé and Chang Yike? Jiasuo VIII doesn't have legs, are you afraid it will run away…" Egg also understood Li Yue's idea, but didn't quite understand how the birdcage could help imprison those two guys.

"Heh, a Fourth-Order Gunslinger… I've already killed eleven Fourth-Order Martial Artists."

Noel Moore responded, "But… who is counting?"

All of this was because of the Demon King's mission.

And the mission was to kill Yihé and seize his relics.

He even had the mood to chat.

"This time, you won't escape." Yihé wrote pale words in the sky.

The desire for killing increased exponentially, and all the souls outside the birdcage were overwhelmed, with only killing left.

The source was of course the Holy Knight Chang Yike.

"This is a kind of ritual." Li Yue buzzed, "In the birdcage, life and death are in my hands."

As the three Demon Princes advanced from the head of the Bone City towards Jiasuo III, their sphere of influence also became larger and larger, with countless shadows, drills… appearing around them.

"Just now, that was a small character from the Clive family! A Fourth-Order Gunslinger!" Egg's particle brought a lump of bloody mud, introducing its origin to its companions.

"If we break through Jiasuo VIII, it would be equivalent to destroying humanity's faith in that war, which means the start of that war is not far away…"

The Shadow Legion, led by drills and glued to the bone sea, cut into the hundred Imperial legions blocking Jiasuo III with a resolute attitude.

Of course, it wasn't because the Demon Princes couldn't handle the wandering souls—Li Yue had already used the Staff of Deception to open up our thought threads, and along the threads explored deeper, more complex cores, searching for the source of faith.

"Push the lane, push the lane… push to Jiasuo VIII, release the bone tree…" Li Yue simplified the battlefield into a head-on clash, as long as they rushed to the opponent's base for an explosion, it would be considered a failure.

When the knights were resurrected, died, and then resurrected again, they, along with the Holy Path Army, became dark wandering souls, sweeping through pure-blooded demons, skeletons, and dark elves without restraint.

The knights guarded Jiasuo VIII, guarding the faith.

Shadow silently exerted force, and countless solidified shadows wrapped the dark wandering souls, forcibly crushing the light.

However, under the call of public opinion and the holy knights, the Empire's airships still rushed to that battlefield one after another, only to sprinkle gunfire and explosives.

I always remember how it all happened.

【I am not only going to win, but also kill the top human combat power, destroy our war faith, and make us dare not attack again…】

At this moment, the bone tree was placed outside the shadow space. When the army pressed against the fortress, it could be taken out and detonated.

"What… could better prove our strength… than eliminating all the technology of the Creation Department?"

Then become a wandering soul resurrected from a spark.

"Killing Yihé will complete the Demon King mission, killing Chang Yike will end all wandering souls…" Li Yue tore apart the dark wandering souls that were approaching while calculating the war situation with Undead Lament.

Thanks to Wright's mark, Yihé was on his way, so how to make his arrival his death was what Chang Yike had to think about next.

At this moment, the three Demon Princes taking turns in battle seemed to have become fortresses on the battlefield, marking the human target and opening up an actionable space for the demonic tide in front, blocking the spread of dark wandering souls.

"He is… waiting for me to come?" Shadow didn't need to pay too much attention to the battlefield situation, simply sensing Li Yue's shadow could know what the City Defense Commander was thinking.

Then be torn apart by the undead and shadows.

The shadows were beast-shaped, human-shaped, and skeleton-shaped, gradually converging into a Shadow Legion.

Muttering, Chang Yike also ejected and rolled between the ground and the low altitude, throwing out bundles of binding threads, unfolding a birdcage.

"So Yihé, Wallace, and the royalty inside Jiasuo VIII, none of them can escape, they all have to die."

They flew over the low sky, blocked by artillery fire from satellites, suffering heavy casualties; they turned into small flying birds, crashing to the ground and becoming sparks.

Basically, adding the bone sea to the Shadow Legion, grinding the Imperial legions into dark wandering souls, and then using more undead to deal with the newly resurrected wandering souls in batches, gradually became very proficient.

Even if the war had entered a stalemate, after becoming the King of the Arena, Li Yue had a full understanding of the desire for killing and was not overwhelmed by it.

Colliding with the Empire's elite troops.

Under the command of the Demon Princes, the troops composed of pure-blooded demons, skeletons, and dark elves launched a large-scale charge, also constantly emerging from the abyss and the Bone City, becoming an endless stream of soldiers.

"After all, the Empire doesn't have so many Yihés, nor so many Wallaces."

【This is me.】

"Yeah, otherwise, do you want us to kill back?" Chang Yike didn't have the slightest intention of waiting for Yihé to come and die.

And the speed of the Shadow Legion and the bone sea suddenly slowed down.

Under the leadership of the holy knights, the knights exerted their strongest level, showing the ability to influence the direction of the war.

"As long as they feel they can't win, they won't come again…"

Li Yue said, the three Demon Princes also jumped back and forth within a small area in the middle of the troop surge, tearing apart the overall formation of the Imperial army, constantly crushing flesh and dark wandering souls.

And in the colliding troop surge, Li Yue had a small soldier with a flag on his head, a bright spot in his brain grooves, marking the attack target for all the incoming Imperial troops, warriors, and mechs.

Chang Yike slowing down had another reason.

Aka was still entangled with us, but with the addition of a hundred Imperial legions, the power of the knights' cluster combat was also revealed, and every human became more and more valiant.

Compared to the gradually connected wandering souls, the planes in the sky were no longer the main theme of the war, but only an accompaniment in a certain buzzing sound.

Or even worse.

Stirring a song of flesh and soul.
