I'm a monster in Demon King's Castle

Incredibly powerful, on par with Oogie Boogie—a fellow as powerful as Oogie Boogie was slumbering within the giant cocoon.

The instant Li Yue received the prompt, he made a judgment call, recalling all the Abyssal Eyes to cover his face, and as the giant cocoon fell, he darted to the top where the veins were exposed, unleashing a barrage of Petrifying Rays!

Immediately following, Li Yue unhesitatingly spat out the Arcane Cannon from his chest cavity, the Freakish Puzzle writhing its muscles, loading and filling, the Lava Right Hand releasing heat to ignite the fuse…

Extremely decisive.

Aside from the Thorns of Decay, Li Yue used everything he could.

Boom!

An Explosive Shell shattered the layers of petrified veins, penetrating the interior of the giant cocoon!

At the same time, Li Yue didn't even bother to check the results, pushing off with both feet and leaping back toward where the old man and Jessie were, the Bone Sword wreathed in death energy.

Boom!

Like throwing a firecracker into a water balloon, a second explosion rang out, and the entire underground cave shook violently, revealing layers of cracks, as if about to collapse; immediately following, intense light shone out from the cracks in the giant cocoon, illuminating the underground and overturning countless rubble, the entire cave shrouded in sand and dirt.

"What? Is he satisfied with your arrangements?" Menthis gnashed his teeth. And Jessie also shattered at that moment, green venom spewing out from within the cocoon, the petrified outer shell and the biological inner membrane completely ruptured, revealing a tiny figure from within the blood cocoon.

The operating rules of the Colosseum during the Non-Slaughter Cup, Kingston J's soldier-breeding plan, the connection to the heirs of the Oogie Boogie family, the Essence of Iron… the giant cocoon was satisfied with the harvest of that trip, and now all that was left was to send Li Yue away.

"You know a location to leave Demon King City, you will directly send him back to Death Town, Deshler." The giant cocoon had not even weighed it properly yet, deciding to let Li Yue take the situation of Demon King City back.

Moreover, in its conjecture… a small portion of the pressure from humans would be borne by the Colosseum, the Abyssal Maw, and the Forbidden Forest, so Shi Fa would have more room to grow its strength.

The giant cocoon, while horrified, leapt into the battle circle of the old man and Li Yue, avoiding the two severed silver threads, the Thorns of Decay stabbing straight toward the old man's neck.

It was a pity that the giant cocoon was wrong.

"Arcane Mirror…" Shi Fa hastily surveyed the situation and also approved of the giant cocoon's proactive action, but still wanted to retrieve the Shi Fa Xia family's sacred artifact.

It was also at that moment that the old man sensed the intruder in the white mist, one hand reaching into the white mist, appearing in front of the giant cocoon, tearing at the giant cocoon's back, while the other hand passed through the approaching silver thread, blocking it behind his own neck, resisting the Bone Sword.

However, Li Yue did not see any kill notification pop up, and immediately knew that the terrifying being within the giant cocoon had not died, urgently accelerating, and sweeping toward the battle group of the old man and Jessie—if he didn't leave now, he might not be able to escape.

[Killed a low-level demon, gained 1 Demon Point]

First, get rid of that low-level demon to secure the path of retreat.

Because only in that way could the human's level of attention to Demon King City be increased, even organizing a legion to directly attack Demon King City—the more chaotic Demon King City was, the more opportunities the Library would have.

"Cover your eyes, don't look at anything." Shi Fa certainly didn't want to have his escape route tripped up by the Colosseum's curse again, and once again tore off a piece of rag for Li Yue—the Fly Demons had hundreds of eyes, and a careful look would max out their hatred.

If it were a hero, he would already be dead.

The thing within Jessie was awakening, and at this critical moment, the giant cocoon was not prepared to entangle with the old man too much, completely ignoring the hand behind it, focusing on the Thorns of Decay in front of it.

The giant cocoon, carrying the heir of the Oogie Boogie family, unfurled octopus tentacles from its lower body, reversed direction, and burrowed into the soil, constantly advancing, pushing forward with its front hands and filling in behind, quickly fleeing toward the Moonlight Grand Path in the Colosseum, leaving all the clamor behind it.

As for Abada, who ignited the battle at the beginning… after Shi Fa had seen the underground cave of the Colosseum, he no longer felt that this was a difficult thing to deal with, and even had a little thought of reporting Kingston J to the City Lord for secretly raising soldiers.

Moments before, the old man's head was severed by a horizontal slash of the Bone Sword, and the silver-armored Li Yue also broke free from the Colosseum's curse at that instant, and once again saw the earth-shattering underground cave.

And just as the giant cocoon was carrying Li Yue and leaping down the cave entrance, the entire underground suddenly collapsed, broken stones and debris smashing toward the seven people.

When death energy enveloped him, the old man immediately recalled… that a famous gladiator had also died from this stab, and immediately became greatly alarmed.

Li Yue obediently covered his eyes, and at the same time drank a bottle of magic potion, recovering from the injuries of the recent battle.

"It's too late, don't open your eyes, or you will die." The giant cocoon had no time to help Li Yue retrieve the fragments of the Arcane Mirror, let alone mind throwing Li Yue down to escape on its own, only seeing if he could understand.

Otherwise, even if they destroyed the guy inside Jessie, it would be pointless if they couldn't get out alive.

Running far, far away…

Thus, the Bone Sword pierced the old man's palm, and also transmitted countless death energy; at the same time, the hand behind tore apart the giant cocoon's spine, directly tearing off two sections of vertebrae.

Pushing aside the soil, the giant cocoon slightly poked its head out, tossing up an Abyssal Eye and looking back—the Colosseum's underground seemed to have been poked through with a huge hole, countless flies flying out from inside the hole, obscuring the sky, and then all swarming toward the rain in the arena.

The giant cocoon felt like it could still hear the buzzing of flies in its ears, and wasn't even sure if it was an illusion; while Li Yue was completely lost, even if his perception slightly recovered, he didn't know where he was, only knowing that Van Helsing was carrying him by the neck and moving rapidly.

The buzzing sound gradually filled the entire cave, and Shi Fa staggered, nearly losing control of his form—after several rounds of Petrifying Rays and Bone Spikes, Bone River's consumption, plus the "Thorns of Decay" just used, Shi Fa's magic power was almost exhausted, and he had no remaining strength to contend with this demon, only wanting to leave quickly.

"Don't… Beelzebub…" The demon called out its demonic name, shaking off the mucus, about to open its eyes.

So that buzzing sound was not an illusion…

Beelzebub poked half his body out of the hole, and buzzed loudly toward the sky in a pile of ruins.

[Soil… the taste of soil… what is this slippery, sticky thing… don't get close to me… where am I… ]

"Bite your demon ass!"

Countless compound eyes.

At the same time, Kingston J, who was conducting a pre-war meeting in the Abyssal Maw… a red fly at the corner of his eye suddenly burst open, and the King of the Colosseum stood up and roared.

The demon within Jessie covered his lower abdomen and stood up, there was a large hole in his abdomen, countless insect eggs falling and breaking at the opening, and Fly Demons the size of hands began to emerge from the eggs, miniature versions of him.

Damn… was it grafting a pureblood demon and a fly together?

Shi Fa, fleeing, passed through the barren soil of the Colosseum, still sensing the "rain" above continuing to fall, thinking that the hero named Rain Man might be out of luck, and then "swam" out of the Colosseum's range without stopping, finally arriving at the Moonlight Grand Path.

Sensing the sudden, extremely evil, withered hand reaching from behind, the giant cocoon then knew what kind of guy Li Yue was fighting, thinking that a Fourth-Order Knight really was another qualitative change, otherwise it would be difficult to persist for such a quarter of an hour.
