I'm a monster in Demon King's Castle

When Abed's fallen flesh congealed into a pool of bloody mud in the tunnel, his soul also broke free from his body, directly becoming a wisp of soul, drawn towards the death town of Desler.

After losing control, Abed died instantly, leaving only a patch of blood and grime in the tunnel, along with a backpack in the filth.

Seeing this, the Sand Kingdom magician Sander unhesitatingly retrieved Abed's backpack from the bloody mud, then quickly retreated towards the safe zone.

With the financier dead, Sander had no reason to stay in the colosseum.

And when the curse of the death town and the curse of the colosseum took effect simultaneously, the scene instantly became chaotic, and the great battle began—the experimental subject stared for a long time without finding an opponent, then charged towards the two bespectacled adventurers; Jessie and Karl seemed to have a tacit understanding, almost simultaneously shrinking behind Li Yue, leaving Li Yue to face the attack head-on.

Instinct explained everything; Li Yue knew that these two adventurers didn't regard him as a companion, only as a sausage to attract the experimental subject, but he thought to himself, wasn't he thinking the same?

It's just that these remaining two large sausages should be fed out at a crucial moment; it would be a waste to directly throw them to the experimental subject to eat.

Thinking this, Li Yue lowered the hand covering his eyes and charged forward, plunging into the oncoming fireball; and seeing that the experimental subject had confirmed its target, the female knight and the gunslinger each unleashed their attacks, with icy silver threads and freezing bullets simultaneously landing on the experimental subject's body.

Without Brad, Jessie and Karl's movements were very restrained, barely encroaching on the experimental subject's attack range; while Li Yue enjoyed the experimental subject's fiery roasting, absorbing the fire with the octopus tentacles outside his skull, and marveling at the astonishing weakness revealed by the Freak Puzzle in addition to its "self-healing".

It burned terribly, but it was fatal; Karl could even vaguely sense from the Freak Puzzle's feedback in the pituitary gland that it was enjoying that temperature.

And Komei naturally unceremoniously picked up the backpack, and even opened it to take a look—after going around in circles, the goods that the slave trader had painstakingly acquired had returned to her hands?

"Break…" Karl twisted off the snake's head, and the sandstorm finally subsided, and Li Yue reappeared.

"If he wants to leave, it's best to do it now." Although Karl felt that Sander and Komei were both small sausages, compared to filling the colosseum with their two lives, it was more practical to keep a path for purchasing materials.

Only Karl was still firmly locking onto the enemy with his mind, retracting the iron claws and magic wolf fangs under his bone hand, and twisting off the snake's head from the sandstorm—the layers of spreading sand did interfere with perception, but Komei's mind, having successfully advanced, had been greatly strengthened, and was already able to ignore that level of flying sand.

The snake's tail stretched out, and brought back Komei, who had just escaped!

The magician hired by Abed stood swaying, his body covered in poisonous gas, his face half green and half yellow, and he took out two bottles of potion and poured them down.

Crack!

Looking out from the hole in the back, the eight people could see the corpses of magical creatures being constantly struck into the sky, then flying horizontally and obliquely; they scattered into waste in mid-air, then fell back to the barren earth like fine rain, eventually turning into crackling sounds on the ground.

And then died.

In an instant, within the experimental subject's body, eight iron claws suddenly extended from between Karl's finger bones, coupled with the "magic wolf fangs" that grew out under the bones, immediately cutting off and stirring up its internal organs, bursting out layers of blood plasma.

And just as Karl was bitten on the neck by the lion, and his bone hand was about to cut off the experimental subject's calf tendon, the experimental subject's snake tail suddenly drew away the muscles outside its body, then instantly lengthened, biting towards outside the battlefield!

After experiencing all this, Sander was a little discouraged and took out the map to take a look—passing eight corridors was the VIP room, and directly above was the lounge for high-level gladiators.

【Should I continue to go deeper… Brad is already dead… Brad died too early…】

The lion's head gradually lost its life, the flames gradually weakened, until they dissipated.

The sandstorm became more and more violent and light, mixed with poisonous gas, as if it was about to fill the entire tunnel; Sander and the gunslinger each protected their heads and faces, and had even lost track of the snake's tail.

And Karl smoothed the skin that had been bitten open by the experimental subject, and shouted inwardly—rain is in the sky, underground… let me conduct a concerto.

"However… it's raining outside." Komei finally understood what a "rain man" was.

"Let's continue." With a rain man creating a small scene outside, Sander also realized that this was a rare opportunity to invade, and decided to follow Karl and continue inward.

After obtaining the magic core of the Armored Juggernaut, Komei also collected the experimental subject's lion head and snake tail, and hung them together on her waist, looking less like a noble knight with a high status, and more like a warrior from some primitive tribe.

Sander had another inner drama.

【Van Helsing still has the confidence to continue exploring? Is he looking down on me?】

This is… the colosseum's curse exceeded the experimental subject's instinct, and instead concealed its weakness?

【Snake venom… snake venom…】

Karl's tattered clothes were also quickly burned away, revealing a muscular body exuding the smell of barbecue, tearing at the experimental subject's body, determined to separate the snake tail from the lion's head.

The battlefield was expanded into two groups, and it was at this time that Komei discovered from the eye demon's shared vision that a large number of magical creatures were gathering here, knowing that there was no more time to waste—the experimental subject was thick-skinned and tough, and it would be quite difficult to dismantle it with sharp objects, while Sander, Jessie, and Li Yue were all resisting this sandstorm, unable to spare any attention, which was a good opportunity for Komei to take action.

Li Yue's potion couldn't dissolve the experimental subject's toxins, turning into several piles of rags and a pool of blood underground, with the backpack and bottles of potions in the blood, almost the same ending as Abed.

Karl seized the time to tear at the experimental subject's waist, and although he didn't look back, his mind also extended along the snake tail's movement, and he immediately sensed what had happened at that moment.

Moreover, with the help of the Demon Illustrated Handbook to lock the position, so he hit it in one shot.

Li Yue's face first turned green, then yellow, and finally became a pile of yellow sand, scattered on the ground with a rustling sound, reassembling into his original body; and it was also during this process that the magician from the Sand Kingdom made eye contact with the snake eye, becoming the next adventurer favored by the "colosseum curse".

Leading the two adventurers, bypassing the magical creatures running in the tunnel, Karl approached the high-level gladiator's lounge.

Unfortunately, there were no handy weapons nearby, so Karl could only pinch the experimental subject's neck and tear it hard, his bone hand deeply inserted into its waist…

There were originally many magical creatures' heads here waiting to be harvested, but now… Sander wasn't too sure.

After analyzing it, Komei already knew that the experimental subject's weakness was the magical power balance in its body; as long as one of the lion's head or snake tail was removed, the other would devour the opponent's magical power, thus causing "distortion".

But it was different from what Karl had expected—when the lion's head and snake tail were separated, the snake tail didn't devour the opponent's body and magical power immediately, but broke free from control and rushed towards Li Yue!

The scene got big.

Sensing it, the rain man was like a performer, flipping the short stick in his hand, knocking away large swaths of magical creatures.

Karl looked at the small cage in the backpack, counted the eight corpse collectors and one demon merchant inside, and was quite moved.

A sandstorm swept through the tunnel, mixed with the snake tail's poisonous breath and the flame mane, and all living things, including the magical creatures, were being attacked!

Komei decisively exchanged for "Iron Essence" from the Demon Illustrated Handbook, then edited, transformed, and released it through the bone hand…
