I'm a monster in Demon King's Castle

#724 - Van Helsing is a good comrade

"Help? I need your help?" Raven Lussen was clearly not joking.

Then he heard his thoughts.

"Say it, let's figure it out together."

Raven Lussen's thoughts were simple.

"What if I'm just passing by, hungry, and want to find some people to eat?" Li Yue stretched his chin out again.

"So many bugs and sand, not enough to eat?"

Raven Lussen didn't answer.

Li Yue felt manipulated, but couldn't really dislike Raven Lussen; after all, he was quite humorous and his ideas were to the point.

"Well, I just want to know what the situation is in Barren City now, and what's up with that giant locust," Li Yue asked.

When Raven Lussen introduced his situation, he seemed to touch on some things, but didn't explain them in too much detail.

"Peaceful coexistence with some demons, nothing to do with you?" Raven knew why Lussen Li Yue didn't find that condition appealing.

Lussen Li Yue's thoughts revealed everything.

"So they want you to help?" Raven's purpose was just to circle around Barren City, not to help Lussen Li Yue rescue some diplomatic official or anything like that.

That human was Dez.

Sand people, sand slaves, and merchants who didn't have time to evacuate were all protected by Ni'er's curse, living humbly.

"He's coming too?" Raven was quite surprised.

"Great!" Lussen Li Yue's joy was overflowing.

It wasn't that Lussen Li Yue determined all that based solely on a conversation.

"But there's a favor to ask…"

Clearly, Ms. Xiao outside knew more about magic and such.

"What about that ice lake?" Li Yue continued to ask.

"Stop pretending, he hates you."

After the epic was sung, the era of chaotic faith began, and Ni'er also gained enough power because of the Old Goat's support.

"Besides ideals, do you have any other value?" Lussen Li Yue retorted.

"What you can offer him is one condition, Dez." Lussen Zhenmeng wasn't joking this time, "If the people can stand up on their own, this I can't promise, peaceful coexistence with some demons."

In that situation, Lussen Li Yue, who had the ideal of "saving humanity", although attempting to rescue his companions in the diplomatic official team, didn't have any very good methods.

"Borrowing the existence of the Snow Country diplomats, laying eggs inside the bodies of the Snow Country entourage…"

If the Library ever leaves Demon King City, it really needs to find a way to coexist with humans.

"You're just being polite, I want you to follow along at best…"

"That piece of clothing can help him avoid the locusts and sandstorms, consider it a small token from us." Lussen Li Yue took the tattered robe from Xiao's hand and was about to put it on Zhenmeng.

Otherwise, would he have to kill all the humans on the Chaos Continent?

And the Empire needed to invest a large amount of military force into the war with Demon King City and the Bone Chariot Sect, so it didn't have the spare strength to seize control of Barren City, so it immediately withdrew from the fight.

At least Lussen Li Yue's motivation was very hesitant and pure.

"Of course, Van Helsing is a good comrade."

The two joked together, and the serious Xiao was a little helpless, glaring at the two guys.

So the Snow Country diplomats who crossed the Sea of Death to come to Barren City became the ones directly facing Ni'er's pressure.

"Mr. Lussen Li Yue, can we really trust him?"

"Ni'er occupies the city walls of Barren City, secretly retreating is the best choice…"

"I'm a demon, so I should be able to understand… King Ni'er, that is, that big locust, after unifying the Sand Kingdom, wants to eat the Empire, and also advance into the Snow Country…" Raven Lussen said.

Raven somewhat admired the insight of this messy-haired human—during the conversation, Raven didn't sense any malice, any magic fluctuations…

"You demons are very proactive, I heard that demons usually only appear when humans call for them, tempting humans to fall," Lussen Li Yue said jokingly.

That's too rare.

"We can also accept living with demons."

Thinking, Zhenmeng Li Yue took out a piece of rotten paper from his pocket, a map marking the path leading to the bottom of the ice lake.

"Alright, alright, enough, you guys wait here, I'll be right back." Raven took the clothes, map, and list, and had the capital to break into Barren City under Ni'er's nose.

As for the terrain and structure of Barren City, Raven also transcribed it into his mind by listening to the thoughts of Lussen Zhenmeng and Xiao.

But they were still reading, still teaching young children to read?

"If you were a demon merchant, what you're asking for is an investment." Raven couldn't help but think from a demon's perspective, "Are you afraid I'll tear up the agreement and sell you off?"

Lussen Li Yue's actions made Raven feel a little uncomfortable.

"Then usually the humans who are tempted will offer something." Zhenmeng also joked with Lussen Li Yue.

"Xiao! It's your turn, give Van Helsing this piece of clothing to wear, to make it easier for him to enter the city…" Immediately after, Lussen Li Yue called to Ms. Xiao.

In short, the Snow Country diplomat and prince, Klaus Snow, was being trapped by Ni'er at the bottom of the ice lake; he and his subordinates could become parasites carrying locust eggs at any time.

"Of course! What's the point of entrusting someone else to rush into Barren City while you're lying in bed in the village gasping for breath?" Lussen Li Yue retorted.

Raven realized that, in reality, Lussen Li Yue and Xiao's lives were already counting down.

Ni'er raised sandstorms and locusts to attack New Holy City, while also not giving up the idea of jumping to Snow Country, so he besieged the Snow Country diplomats, trying to get them to bring the locusts to the Northern Border.

Raven transformed into a shadow and left.

"Xiao! You tell him!" Raven Lussen said, calling Ms. Xiao from the outer room.

"Forget it, you're useless anyway, I'll have to take care of you if you go." Raven thought for a moment, waved his hand, "It's easier for me to go alone."

Lussen Zhenmeng was considering for Raven.

As for how to make the locusts evolve with stronger cold resistance, that was something Raven didn't know.

The Snow Country diplomatic team was at the bottom of the ice lake at the port north of Barren City, while the city was already shrouded in locusts and sandstorms, similar to the situation in those villages outside.

Until he waited for Raven.

That was too tiring.

Zhenmeng also directly heard about the affairs of Barren City through their two's thoughts, and combined with the ritual that occurred in Riftgold Mountain, Zhenmeng roughly understood the whole picture.

If he didn't know that Lussen Li Yue was just an ordinary human, Raven might even think he was trying to complete some kind of ritual.

"Bringing the locusts to Snow Country, letting the locusts jump out of the desert…"

"That seems to be some kind of magic from the Snow Country mages…"

Lussen Li Yue's thoughts changed, and Zhenmeng almost couldn't hold back his serious expression.

"Alright, I'll give it a try." Raven was also tired of facing all kinds of distorted beliefs, and heroes whose minds were full of advancement and rituals.

"Let me confirm, you want me to bring the diplomatic official and his team back?" Raven assessed the difficulty.

A dozen names appeared in Lussen Li Yue's mind, all companions with the same ideals.

"When the ice lake breaks, we will also become bait for the locusts."

"To save humanity, I need you…"

"A demon who hates humans will inevitably want to find a way to coexist peacefully with humans."

"Xiao! Bring your equipment!" Zhenmeng Li Yue said halfway, calling Xiao to the storage room to get a gun, looking like he was about to go into battle.
