I'm a monster in Demon King's Castle

"Are you saying… a trade?" The Head Chef narrowed his eyes.

"Yes, a trade." Li Yue turned his palm upward, and the Self-Healing Bone appeared, a femur bone.

Since the Head Chef found the Self-Healing Bone so delicious, why fight him when he could trade it instead?

Anyway, the Self-Healing Bone is obtained through Malice. Li Yue only needs to open the 'Loathsome' card and take a walk around Demon King City to receive a large amount, making it a stable source of production.

If he could establish a stable exchange channel with the Demon Kitchen, it would at least save a lot of materials, and perhaps improve the diet of the monsters in the Library…

Yes, Li Yue's way of thinking was evolving towards being a 'householder,' preparing to build the Library into his own fortress.

"How about it?" Li Yue gripped the femur in his palm and tossed it to the Head Chef, like throwing a bone to a puppy.

Li Yue threw a femur, then a rib, then a neck bone; the Head Chef couldn't resist, swallowing them one by one, drooling profusely.

The monsters like the Harpy Bird were stunned—had he captured the Head Chef's stomach? With just bones?

Want to taste…

The Harpy Bird, Winged Demon, Leaf Person, and Evil Horn Beast all thought the same.

"Do you think these… are enough to compensate for your side dishes?" Li Yue threw seven or eight bones, and the Head Chef accepted them all. "I think the Demon Kitchen… can provide an exclusive supply channel for closed combat training."

"Two-way?" The Head Chef said, tearing off one of his pig trotters and turning it into Golden Oil Pig Trotter, attracting the surrounding monsters with its aroma.

But the Head Chef chewed it loudly, looking like he was only going to enjoy it himself.

"Is this… a new dish?" Li Yue certainly noticed the difference in the pig trotter—that fresh fragrance was so prominent in the audience area crowded with low-level monsters, that even Li Yue's main body, with little desire for taste… couldn't help but stir.

"Want to try it? Welcome to the Demon Kitchen to taste it, but… next time, I hope you come through the front door properly." The Demon Head Chef nodded to Li Yue, and by the way, gave a GG—the image of the pig head gnawing on the pig trotter was deeply imprinted in Li Yue's mind.

【Golden Oil Pig Trotter… Continuous Self-Healing effect for 5 minutes… Shelf life of half a month…】

The Head Chef's heart revealed the effect of this chaotic dish. Li Yue gained a further understanding of the Demon Chef's role—the Demon Chef is equivalent to a dish-making machine, and as long as you give it raw materials, it can produce dishes with various effects, whether for healing or assisting in battle.

When the Library gets on the right track in the future, can he hire one? If nearby… Pigo?

These can all be arranged slowly, but he must first pass the Killing Cup, and then arrange the follow-up development plan.

"The deal is made." Li Yue extended his palm to the Head Chef, palm facing the pig head.

The pig head also raised his palm, palm facing outward, making the gesture of the Demon common language, representing a verbal agreement without malice.

"Then… I will come to you after the Killing Cup." The Head Chef had a large package of things to send to Pigo, and no longer delayed time in the audience, turning back to arrange the package.

When the surrounding monsters saw this scene, they immediately dismissed the idea of ​​drawing out Li Yue's bones to eat—this was a guy who could reach an agreement with the Demon Head Chef, was he looking for death to provoke him?

Li Yue just glanced coldly at the Harpy Bird and the others, forcing these low-level monsters to make a small circle for Li Yue to focus on checking the situation in the arena.

This wave of leveraging power was very successful, and even established a two-way connection with the Demon Kitchen. Li Yue was very satisfied, leaning on the railing of the audience, suddenly feeling like he was different.

However, the truth of Demon King City quickly caught up with him—when the low-level monsters quickly put everything they had just seen behind them, and re-crowded together to discuss the winner of the game, everything seemed unchanged.

Fortunately, whenever the low-level monsters looked at Li Yue's bones… they would recall everything that had just happened, and did not contribute malice, so Li Yue was also happy to be quiet, and could concentrate on waiting for Budiboge and the 'Octopus Shapeshifter' Corey to appear.

The low-level monsters were still discussing those things. In the center of the arena, a group of skeleton soldiers were performing a dance as a warm-up activity before the war. They were dancing quite happily, but it didn't arouse much interest from the audience.

Until the skeletons argued over a certain dance step while dancing, and fought, staging a team battle in advance, the audience in the audience was ignited a little bit of enthusiasm, and they howled along with the skeletons' slashing rhythm.

At this time, Oogey Boogey finally appeared—the Sack Demon jumped down from the black mist in the upper audience area, and the swarm of flies burst out to drive away the skeleton dance team, and then shouted to the whole field.

"Oh, my dear guests—the third game of the Killing Cup—is about to begin—" Oogey Boogey was still gesticulating as he did when they first met, "This Killing Cup Brain Spirit Special—is finally more than halfway through—three more games—and it will be the night of the full moon—the new city lord will witness the bravery of the Brain Spirit and crown the Brain Spirit…"

"Of course, if the Brain Spirit can survive, hahaha!" Oogey Boogey's sack hand was raised high, and the audience cheered.

"The Brain Spirit's opponent—is everyone's familiar—the arena's popular gladiator—ranked 157th 'Octopus Shapeshifter' Corey—let us welcome him with warm curses—" Oogey Boogey raised his hand, and the iron gate on the east side opened, Li Yue concentrated.

"Go to hell, bastard—you're doomed—but not today—hahaha—" Most of the monsters in the audience bought Corey, of course they didn't want him to die today.

Li Yue sensed from a distance, and an octopus "swam" out, only the chest up was still human, eight tentacles were born under the two arms, and half of the body was submerged in the ground. It seemed that the soil was the same as water for him, and it would not hinder his actions at all, but instead became his help when moving.

In addition to the tentacles, Corey's mouth was densely covered with two rows of sharp teeth, his whole body was covered with suckers, and his two arms were strong and powerful, raised high, as if accepting the audience's "cursing" welcome.

【Analyzing…7%…】

Judging from the analysis speed, Li Yue believed that the strength of the 'Octopus Shapeshifter' Corey was very good, much stronger than the half-injured pure-blooded demon Bosh, at least at the level of a high-level demon.

However, the battle between demons never only looks at the level. Li Yue believed that as long as the strategy is appropriate and targeted, the low-level demon is entirely possible to kill beyond the level; and at present, the situation of the 'Octopus Shapeshifter' Corey is similar to what was previously understood, and should be based on the core attack method of "removing the opponent's equipment" followed by a strong kill, plus a counter-kill by "absorbing the opponent's attack."

As long as he is not absorbed by him after absorbing the magma and counterattacks, Budiboge should have a chance—the main thing is to look at the skin strength of Corey's octopus body.

The 'Octopus Shapeshifter' Corey sank half of his body in the wasteland, quickly circling the field to pay his respects; Oogey Boogey patted him on the shoulder, and then introduced today's protagonist.

"His challenger—is our Brain Spirit—this Brain Spirit—after narrowly winning the 'Slaver' Bode Corey, found the rhythm of battle, and in the second game, cleanly broke through the defense of the 'Wandering Sword' Paladin, and fulfilled his wish to merge his body. This time, what kind of surprise will he bring us?" Oogey Boogey summarized the previous battle situation in one sentence, and whetted the audience's enthusiasm.

"Tch, still tricking people into buying Brain Spirit, everyone knows that Brain Spirit has no strength in this game, after the last game, they were carried out and thrown into the forest, and they couldn't even float…" The noisy voice of the Harpy Bird sounded again next to him, saying to the Winged Demon, Leaf Person, and Evil Horn Beast who had bought the "Octopus Shapeshifter", "My companion picked up the magic armor of the 'Wandering Sword', and the Brain Spirit didn't absorb it at all…"

Li Yue listened with his ears sideways, slandering that Budiboge was indeed miserable in the last game, but the number of magic armors should only be enough to cover himself, because when he killed him… the magic armor did cause a lot of obstacles.

The monsters were discussing in a small range, and Oogey Boogey quickly released Budiboge: "Without further ado—let us welcome the protagonist of this Killing Cup—the Brain Spirit from the Library—"

The iron gate on the west side of the arena was opened with a bang, and Budiboge made a heavy appearance. A bone safe, three times the size of Corey, slowly floated into the field. The dense sharp wolf teeth on the surface were menacing and sharp under the torchlight.

The already boiling audience instantly calmed down.

"What the hell is this! Refund! I'm not playing!" The Harpy Bird shouted first, "Give me back my Brain Spirit!"
