I'm a monster in Demon King's Castle

“Ah… it’s all gone? And you even owe money?”

Lulu and Feifei learned that Li Yue had only killed Barrow and Bonnie on this trip, and had not recovered Ideal Land and Galarick, and had even been robbed of the Heart of Valor and a lot of materials, their mouths wide open in shouts.

After shouting for a while, the two little sweet potatoes looked at each other, then turned their backs in unison: “It’s all our fault…”

[What a pity… the gifts that brother brought us from the Demon Market… ]

Lulu and Feifei choked up, their minds full of the two small saws on the front of the car.

“It’s okay, these are all small problems, they will be fine soon.”

It was also Li Yue's first time dealing with an 8th-order merchant, and it was normal to suffer a little loss. At least now he has experience and a plan.

“Really?” Feifei originally planned to drive Ideal Land at the wedding, carrying Lulu for a ride on Mini Minnie Island.

“If brother says it’s true, then of course it’s true.” Lulu tapped Feifei's head.

“Yes, really.” Li Yue nodded, “Even if he doesn’t come looking for me, I will go looking for him.”

Li Yue pointed to the mark on the Demon Route, a place that was exactly Loafer Mountain.

“It’s just that before looking for him, there are still a few things that need to be verified, let’s wait until tomorrow.” Li Yue waved his hand.

The library's magic power for today has been squeezed dry, and anything he wants to try will have to wait until tomorrow.

The more Li Yue used it, the more he found the Deception Staff easy to use. It was just a pity that the library was only a small pillar, and the magic power allocation was not high. For a while, he actually had some thoughts of becoming a large pillar.

Just like Oogie Boogie.

To raise a monster like Oquibuki, a massive amount of magic power is definitely needed.

“Okay, then brother, have a good rest!” Lulu and Feifei quickly slipped away, leaving only Li Yue and Tom in the upper layer of the library.

[I want to… observe the Hellfire at close range… ]

Tom knew that Li Yue could hear his inner voice, and his communication with Li Yue became more and more like a brain spirit.

[Researching the Law of Retribution? Sure, I'll take you with me next time. It's a bit weird there, don't be careless… ]

[Of course, I am not you. ]

[The current me… cherishes the life you have given me… ]

Li Yue was also used to the edges and corners that Tom revealed from time to time in his heart, and suddenly thought of the curse of the Abyssal Maw—the fire tide can be absorbed with octopus tentacles, but if there are not enough brain bark walnuts, it would be a bit troublesome.

[Copper Spoon has trading connections in the underground city. I have already asked the brain spirit to buy brain bark walnuts, enough for us to use… ]

Tom had already made preparations, very considerate.

[Good, then I'll take you with me next time. ]

[Okay. ]

[By the way, what about the little newsboy I brought back? Is he awake? I have something to ask him… ]

[He has already woken up. He is in the reception room, and he fell asleep again after eating hard meat chunks. ]

[Alright, I'll go find him… ]

Communication with Tom was very efficient. Li Yue left the upper layer of the library almost at the same time as Lulu and Feifei—Lulu and Feifei ran to the workshop to bother Copper Spoon, while Li Yue crossed the soil layer directly to find Little Harry.

Li Yue needed to understand Loafer Mountain from Little Harry.

After waking him up, Li Yue found that Little Harry's condition was very bad.

In addition to often falling into a daze, Little Harry's inner voice was mostly about wanting to become a craftsman apprentice, and the rest was a strong hatred for Hunter Country and the Flies.

Unlike Tom, who was disappointed with the whole world and turned to the library, Little Harry still had hope deep in his heart, and still wanted to live a good life in an imagined way.

It's just that having his head cut off, he may have lost some ideas when Barrow and Bonnie stole his head, and has forgotten what a “normal” lifestyle looks like, everything is condensed into a symbol.

Become a craftsman apprentice.

Seeing him like this, Li Yue didn't sign a contract with him or anything, and directly agreed to let him become Copper Spoon's apprentice.

After all, dwarven craftsmen are also craftsmen. Although Little Harry had read news about human craftsmen in the newspaper, he still knew nothing about the real life of a craftsman, and the subconscious reaction in his mind was still joy.

After fulfilling Harry's wish, and then, when Li Yue mentioned Hunter Country, he finally got some relatively normal reactions.

Harry had completely lost hope in the human heroes. When Li Yue revealed his malice towards Hunter Country, Harry's reaction was even more positive.

[Kill them, kill them all… ]

“What is Loafer Mountain like?” Li Yue asked this question, and Harry also unfolded a picture in his mind.

Loafer Mountain stretches endlessly, spanning tens of miles, with the main peak at an altitude of more than two thousand meters, surrounded by thousands of interconnected caves.

Thieves, hunters… the core members of Hunter Country, that is, the so-called “heroes,” all live in it. Of course, Abaddon occupies the largest one, and must have merged the strongholds of Hunterlar, Barrow, and Bonnie.

Loafer Mountain is their kingdom.

The remaining subordinate organizations, such as newspaper offices and trading companies, are all located in Loafer Town at the foot of Loafer Mountain, for daily external communication and newspaper distribution.

Of course, these people are not considered core members of Hunter Country, and like Little Harry, they are just odd-jobbers.

Abaddon lives in seclusion. Barrow and Bonnie cannot be controlled, so the daily management of Hunter Country is mostly ordered by Hunterlar. Only when it involves opening up business routes or owing debts will Abaddon be asked to come forward.

After all, the people in Hunter Country don't want to owe Abaddon money for no reason, and Abaddon is happy to save those words and concentrate on counting money in his cave.

Little Harry doesn't know who will be responsible for the daily operation of Hunter Country after Hunterlar's death, but he is sure that the person in charge must also be a strong man in a certain cave in Loafer Mountain.

“Do you have any friends in Loafer Mountain?” Li Yue was afraid that Little Harry would be lonely in the library, and didn't mind treating the subordinates of Hunter Country differently.

Although it would be a little troublesome, there should still be many odd-jobbers like Harry, and they shouldn't be buried with Hunter Country.

“Friends… what are they?” Looking at Little Harry's dull appearance, Li Yue almost thought he was talking to Reid Court.

“You will have them.” Li Yue patted Harry's head, “The ‘people’ here are all very cute.”

Little Harry gulped, unable to understand.

Li Yue felt that if Little Harry were to learn to be a craftsman in the library in the future, this kind of slowness might not be a bad thing.

After helping Harry fall asleep again with medicine, Li Yue began to polish the plan to subvert Hunter Country.

This requires a design drawing, four lies, many methods, and a massive amount of malice.

Early the next morning, Li Yue first arranged for Little Noisy to work overtime in the Forbidden Forest, and then ran to the workshop to make a request to Copper Spoon, who was buried in the magic cannon.

“Ah? What is this?” Copper Spoon temporarily put down the research on the magic cannon with doubts, and turned to tackle this new subject.

Afterwards, Li Yue wrapped Tom in Van Helsing's body, transformed into a red-skinned demon, and traveled quickly to the side of the Hellfire to observe together.

It's just that today, there is a cat in the fish tank.

“It wasn’t there yesterday…” Li Yue confirmed to Tom.

Tom didn't speak, squatting by the puddle, watching quietly.

The cat also watched quietly, motionless, Li Yue even suspected that time had stopped.

While looking at each other, Tom also asked Li Yue some questions about his feelings in his mind—although the scholar's mental power is also good, it is still not as good as the brain spirit's perception.

[Just observe, don't touch. ]

After watching for a while, Li Yue and Tom reached a consensus, and both decided not to open the fish tank for the time being.

Accompany Tom to observe, and help the scholar to be vigilant.

Seeing that there was not much unusual around, Li Yue also used dominoes to summon Yingying and Dandan—since they found the Hellfire, they always had to inform the other teammates.

Perhaps they could learn some key points from Steele Baby.

“What's the matter? We're fighting.”

Yingying's reply was a bit irritable.
