I'm a monster in Demon King's Castle

"What do you need these things for? Planning to start a war?" Jessie memorized the list after reading it carefully, then tossed the human skin back through the mirror.

Jessie didn't want to leave any evidence of her "deal" with Van Helsing.

"I won't pry into your needs either." Li Yue didn't intend to explain. "So, can you get them? With the Kingston family's status in the Tas Empire… it shouldn't be a big problem, right?"

"How is it not? During wartime, these things wouldn't even be provided to the Holy City, let alone taken out separately for you?" Jessie frowned.

"So, there's no room for negotiation?" Li Yue wasn't afraid that Jessie would refuse.

The Kingston family had invested most of its resources in her brother, Lancelot. If she wanted to surpass him, she would inevitably need additional resource channels.

And speaking of demonic materials, aside from gathering people to encounter the expeditionary army, the only other option was to plunder the Demon King's City.

Currently, only the Colosseum in the Demon King's City had been breached, and with the Black Gate blocking the way, the output of demonic materials was far from meeting the demand. On the other hand, Li Yue had near-unlimited resources like the Self-Healing Bone and the Demon Wolf's Fang. Whether through exchange or plunder, he could always obtain valuable demonic materials first.

"I can, but it will take time." Jessie frowned deeply. "Especially things related to imperial technology, they are under very strict control…"

"I can wait, even if they are damaged or obsolete." Li Yue didn't expect Jessie to pull out a magic导炮 from her pocket right away, but as long as she started paying attention, she would eventually find a way.

Moreover, Li Yue didn't plan to completely replicate the magic 导炮.

After all, the Demon Illustrated Handbook could produce materials. As long as it was enough to inspire Copper Spoon, that guy who could independently build dwarf tanks would never let him down.

"Okay." Hearing Li Yue's concession, Jessie's mood eased slightly.

"By the way, you wouldn't be from the Snow Country or the Sand Country, would you?" Jessie asked suspiciously. "They've been coveting the empire's technology for a long time."

"No, you can rest assured about that." Li Yue shook his head. "As for the reward for helping you find the sacred relic… let's use magic 导炮 or magic motorcycles to offset it!"

"Oh right, blueprints will also work…"

"Goodbye." Jessie waved her hand. "I'll send you my list of needs in a while, as well as the blood needed for the next communication."

"Oh, so this mirror will stay with me? Doesn't the Kingston family need it?" Li Yue didn't expect Jessie to directly trade with him using the magic mirror.

This would save a lot of procedural troubles.

"Right now, I need it more than the family does, just like I need you." Jessie raised her eyebrows, then stroked the mirror surface, casting a spell to hide the back of the magic mirror.

Seeing this, Li Yue knew that Jessie wanted to temporarily claim the magic mirror as her own.

It seemed that the battle for succession within the nobles was very fierce…

Stowing away the magic mirror against his back, Li Yue sorted out the progress of this trip and found it surprisingly smooth.

Not only had he established a trading channel with Jessie, but he had also helped the heroes clear out the unstable factors in the Third Safety Zone.

He even created the rumor that "there are treasures in the deepest part of the Colosseum."

It seemed that with the great pillars gone, life in the Demon King's City had become much easier.

Next was to collect materials to strengthen the library, and wait for the heroes to break through the Black Gate and destroy Beelzebub, the old man in the deepest part, which would force out Oogey Boogey, the King of the Colosseum…

It would be even better if the heroes were more ferocious and directly destroyed Oogey Boogey.

Of course, Li Yue wouldn't place all his hopes on the heroes.

After all, after contact, the strength of the hunter-nation heroes was still no match for the burlap demon. Exploring the "Hellfire" in the Abyssal Maw also needed to be put on the agenda.

As for now, he should collect materials first!

Li Yue looked at the list with a headache, while "self-healing", he continued to practice medicine between the three safety zones.

After all, the dying heroes were very generous and could also inquire about some news from them.

Such as the progress of the teleportation gate in the Third Safety Zone, and the situation in the Holy City.

"I wonder how things are going with those two…" On the road, Li Yue thought of Yingying and Egg.

"Hee hee, are you thinking about that Brain Spirit again?" Steel Baby waved her little hand, like a baby in swaddling clothes.

But as the little hand waved, countless chanting priests on the city wall died, and the holy light covering the entire city below had a gap because of this.

A shadow darted in from the gap, lifted the surface, and threw an entire piece of land into the sky; the pure-blooded demon in the sky directly gripped the piece of soil, turning it into a huge piece of lava, smashing it like a meteor towards the city wall of the Holy City.

Immediately afterwards, a strong holy light fell from the horizon, directly dissolving the lava meteor in mid-air.

But an egg rolled steadily under the thick holy light, bathing in it to its heart's content, and then was pulled back by the shadow when it was about to lose consciousness.

The place where the three demons were located, like other demons, was attached to the blood-colored mangrove trees made by the pure-blooded demons.

Although they were tree-shaped and could shield the holy light, the trees were covered with blood tumors, spitting out red mist, constantly stimulating the demons' bloodthirsty desires.

"Comfortable!" Egg tiptoed back under the canopy of the blood tree, the entire egg body seemed to have turned into jelly.

"Are you thinking about him?" Egg and Steel Baby teased Yingying together.

"He's thinking about us." Yingying spoke through Steel Baby's mouth, a method she was already very familiar with.

"He's in a good mood now, maybe he'll go to the Abyssal Maw soon." Yingying seemed to sense Li Yue's mood, or maybe she was just guessing.

"Abyssal Maw, taking Hellfire, killing Oogey Boogey?" Steel Baby could easily "steal" Yingying's thoughts. "Hellfire… is difficult to control."

"He will find a way, he can always find a way." Yingying was very confident in Li Yue.

"Hee hee, then what do you think of Memphius, can he find a way to break the city?" Steel Baby asked and answered herself.

Egg was still immersed in the pleasure brought by the thick holy light just now.

"Hee hee, be careful, it's coming again…"

When the red mist squeezed the existence range of the holy light and slightly crossed the line, a holy chariot suddenly rose on the city head of the Holy City; the holy chariot burst into a strong light and shot in all directions, and those holy lights held back the red mist in a diffused shape, and then quickly pushed it outward!

Yingying and Steel Baby skillfully retreated from behind the red mist blood tree, as if they had experienced it thousands of times.

Large swaths of blood trees were purified by the holy light, along with a group of pure-blooded demons, winged demons, and wing demons who retreated a little slower; although Yingying and the others had retreated quickly enough, they were still stained with several holy lights.

The holy light shot from the holy chariot seemed to have stickiness, Steel Baby had to peel off a layer of skin to escape, and Yingying was "pierced" by several light holes again, and her color faded a little.

"Hee hee, do you know the pain now? I told you not to stand so far forward." Steel Baby laughed at Yingying.

Yingying didn't answer, she slammed the jelly-like egg on the ground a few times, shook off the holy light on it, and then her tattered shadow body suddenly shook.

"Something's wrong, it's gone." Yingying woke up Egg.
