I'm a monster in Demon King's Castle

Li Yue hadn't expected Reedcoat to dedicate all his flesh and blood for his faith.

If he grew into something like this, he wouldn't be able to use that blood vessel-linked siege beast magic, right?

"Uh... oh, hello there." Reedcoat picked up some of the skeletons' catchphrases.

Reedcoat was quite surprised to receive Li Yue's communication.

"You understand rituals, right?" Li Yue didn't exchange pleasantries with Reedcoat—this red-robed bishop seemed to be moving quickly, his red robe constantly fluttering.

"I understand a little bit..." Reedcoat's speech was very slow, and then he seemed to suddenly remember something.

"You are already the Lord of Authority of the Arena?" In Reedcoat's hollow eyes, a sword flashed in each.

Put together, they were just missing a stroke from the double sword emblem of the Arena.

"Congratulations, congratulations..." Li Yue quickly moved past this topic, "Can you read?"

Li Yue transmitted the bluegrass rune to Reedcoat—when they first met and greeted each other, Li Yue had already tried it with the Staff of Deception and found that he could deceive him, so he stopped being polite.

"He can't understand the bone card as an Arena performance ticket, but he should be careful when choosing the audience, after all, it's impossible to arouse our desire for slaughter..." Kurt briefly explained his approach.

Tom Changlong's summoning incantation was obviously purified by him, and its directionality was also very weak, partly consisting of words like "Servant of the Bone Cart," "Missionary of Bones," and "Red-clad Believer."

"Hmm, you're going to tie us up to watch." Tom Changlong slowly understood the key point.

After hanging up, Tom Changlong materialized the images of Kurt and Yingying to all the believers, testing their faith.

The carnival beneath the Arena was still going on, the demons seeming to have inexhaustible energy.

【He can control the Arena's curse now, very good.】

"Eh, what a coincidence." Kurt suddenly felt that Tom Reed was a good channel to attract the desire for slaughter.

"How does he want to play?" Changlong asked Akas in return.

Kurt disassembled the double swords, pointing one at Akas's red cloak.

The red-robed bishop had no reaction.

Asking without deceiving was the same as not asking, completely useless.

But Tom Reed looked very pleased: "Next, I will borrow the fame of the King of the Arena to further spread the faith of the Bone Cart Sect..."

The Bone Cart Sect was of course in competition with the Old Goat's sect, and this could also be used to judge the Old Goat's intentions.

"Congratulations..." Tom Changlong's memory of the topic returned to the authority of the King of the Arena, and the double sword emblem flashed again outside his eye sockets.

No results.

Kurt even saw the townspeople of Red Oil Town outside the car, and suddenly felt... in this Chaos Continent where faith was collapsing, having a Bone Cart Sect to help them live on might not be a bad thing.

Changlong finally understood what Tom Reed had once said—people always need to believe in something.

The magic power of the Arena instantly dropped a notch.

Li Yue was very disappointed.

"What's he excited about?" Changlong still couldn't stand the hippie-smiling demon.

Without the ritual and summoning incantation, Kurt could directly offer sacrifices to him.

"Thank you..." Changlong was unenthusiastic, but thinking that they had already fought, he might as well ask about the situation inside.

"How else can we play?" Akas didn't care at all about the dog-eat-dog fight outside the cloak, grinning.

The communication went silent.

Yingying didn't care, asking Kurt—everyone was celebrating, and Kurt deserved to celebrate too.

The Bone Cart was extremely huge, about the size of a lake; the cart was full of believers, each praying devoutly to the bones, occasionally gnawing on bone scraps to fill their hunger.

The believers under the Bone Cart saw the miracle of the bone card and prayed devoutly.

A candlestick suddenly appeared in front of Changlong.

"Thank you... for the gift of the gods..."

He changed the angle of the bone card, showing Kurt a luxurious bone "cart" wrapped in bones.

The Demon Illustrated Handbook also had no reaction.

"Does he want so much desire for slaughter, is he finally going to feed it to the dogs?"

"Uh... this requires a personal division..." Tom Reed wrote down a ritual and provided his own summoning incantation.

Facing a phantom-level shepherd, Kurt could only do so much to that extent.

【Combine?】

Kurt took out the double sword emblem, and the light under Akas's glasses suddenly weakened to the point of being a little dazzling.

If Tom Reed could directly collect it, it would save him the trouble of giving him Norlemore's summoning incantation, and then having to make him forget it again.

Kurt used his mind to touch the Staff of Deception inside the library, deleting that memory from Tom Reed's mind, and was very disappointed.

"Is he doing well? Is the preaching going smoothly?"

"He should sort out any books in the library related to rituals, altars, the Old Goat, and red-robed priests... deepen his understanding of them."

"In his eyes, dogs are never full, they can only be leashed..." Kurt sensed the desire for slaughter in the emblem, thinking about how to use these stocks.

Kurt even tried to drive the Staff of Deception with the Shepherd as the target, trying to find the "thread" in his mind.

Kurt waved to the believers, being very approachable.

The shepherd had no thoughts at all, a blank slate.

Walking in the desert.

"Thank you for your concern..." Tom Reed's tone always seemed a bit personal after becoming a skeleton.

Yingying recognized the meaning of this finger—the authority of the Arena would not only bring magic nourishment, but also allow the Lord of Authority to choose the Arena's "curse."

"Do you have any magic for teleporting items? I'll send you something tomorrow..." Kurt's bone card 0 hasn't been made yet, so he can't send it now.

Having not found the answer from Changlong, Changlong could only urge Li Yue.

During the time of discussion and communication, the shepherd just watched quietly, neither hurrying nor moving, becoming more and more like a fantasy existing only in Kurt's mind.

It was better than becoming a believer of the Evernight Sect or the Burden Sect.

"Opposition, separation, personal division, plague, disarmament, silence..." Kurt sensed the types of curses in the Arena through the double swords, like an all-encompassing merchant, letting Akas and Yingying choose the content of the curse.

Although he didn't get any clues about the shepherd from Tom Reed, Kurt still gained something by expanding the production of the desire for slaughter, and hurriedly hung up.

However, the Bone Cart leaked wind from all sides, and its driving was entirely dependent on Tom Reed's magic, so it wasn't a cart at all, but rather a very huge bone cage.

Since the shepherd didn't move, and Kurt didn't feel any further goodwill from him or the Old Goat, he simply kept him by his side and slowly looked for a way to solve him.

The red-skinned demons inside the cloak began to bite each other's heads.

It's a waste of magic power.

【There's one last thing, and then we'll combine.】

【Bite my demon butt...】

"That seems to be some kind of... very ancient writing... You should ask a scholar, not me." Reedcoat's reaction was very calm, obviously not understanding the Old Goat's magic circle either.

Obviously, Tom Changlong was in a very distant place.

"Forget it, let him go."

"Yes, I will also pay attention to the knowledge coming from the research room, to see if there is any direction worth guessing." Li Yue nodded in agreement.

Li Yue took his leave to return to the library to appreciate the knowledge of the research room; Changlong and Yingying stood closer together, Akas watching the two of them, his glasses flashing with light.

"Have you ever seen this? This one?" Li Yue directly transmitted the image of the shepherd to the red-robed bishop.
