I'm a monster in Demon King's Castle
#634 - fold
“This space is strange.” Li Yue leaned against Skinny, the man and horse stuck to the door at an odd angle, like two people about to fall off a cliff.
As for the tools and ladders scattered in the hall, they all fell onto the opposite wall—the entire room seemed to be flipped, the door flipped to the top, and directly below was the opposite wall and the stairs leading upstairs.
Seeing that the tools that had fallen on the opposite wall didn't seem to have any more anomalies, and feeling quite tired from supporting Skinny, Li Yue was about to hug it and jump down together when he suddenly felt the room flip again.
Gravity changed again, and Li Yue and Skinny rotated 180 degrees, with tools and wood falling from overhead with a crackling sound.
Li Yue batted away a few pieces of wood, wondering if the construction workers who broke their bones here fell like this?
Immediately afterward, Li Yue took advantage of being close to the door and pushed Skinny out.
“You should wait outside, it's easy to get hurt inside.”
Skinny had already been frightened into kicking its legs wildly, and was pushed out by Li Yue, falling to the ground, neighing in pain.
Now the house was quiet.
Li Yue stuck one hand into the wall, holding on firmly, and the scattered tools couldn't cause him any damage, so he ignored them.
The entire house hadn't folded eight times yet, with three times happening in the bedroom, so Li Yue's space for movement wasn't very small yet.
Just as Qu Xiao was preparing to reach out and poke through the wall to pull the paper ball out from the outside, the paper ball suddenly flattened!
After waiting for a while, seeing that there were no more abnormalities besides the flipping, Li Yue climbed to the seventh floor like an ape, quickly traversing the entire mansion.
“Huh? My clothes are torn? Who did it?” Qu Xiao looked at his tattered clothes, unsure of what had just happened.
Qu Xiao summarized everything that had happened before, although he didn't know if it was the demon or some other mysterious power that did it, but since the strange phenomena were happening in the room, there should be a medium, right?
“Creak—” The house creaked inexplicably.
Not knowing how long he had been hanging there, just as Li Yue was feeling a little drowsy, he suddenly noticed that the bedroom floor had “folded” over.
However, the folding continued, but this time Li Yue was familiar with it, discovering that there would be a fold line after each fold, which allowed him to predict and avoid it.
A wooden strip was also folded along with it.
There was no one in the mansion, nor were there any demons, and the things were piled up messily, without any clues.
With time running out, Qu Xiao only had time to straighten his right leg and step into the bedroom.
Is this house starting to fold?
“Did you do it?” Qu Xiao grabbed the doll and appraised it, finding that it was worthless, just an ordinary, tattered doll.
Obviously, it wasn't it.
Could it be a legendary demon relic?
His lower body was in the living room, and his upper body was in the bedroom. Li Yue was about to take the opportunity to climb in when he suddenly saw the room fold again…
Immediately afterward, the house continued to make ping-pong noises, as if someone inside was violently demolishing the house with their bare hands.
“Crack, crack…” Li Yue could hear the crackling of his bones, and then his left thigh folded once along with the living room.
Qu Xiao was sandwiched between the living room and the bedroom, holding a tattered doll in his hand.
The current search is purely out of curiosity.
Fortunately, he hadn't really thought about solving this problem…
As for Li Yue, he didn't care too much about the 10 silver coins reward since he had the appraising work from the Chamber of Commerce, so he just left it hanging.
Li Yue felt that if he really couldn't find anything abnormal, he might as well leave first.
Li Yue was hanging from the ceiling, and he really didn't know how to deal with this problem.
Li Yue stood in the hole, poked his head out and saw that it was the bedroom.
Skinny at the door looked up, and walked away a little, disdainfully.
Now there was no time to think too much. Li Yue climbed over the stacked stairs, and was about to return to the living room when he suddenly saw a neatly folded paper ball through the walls of the stairwell corridor.
Crushed to pieces?
Qu Xiao tried his best to resist the folding force, but fainted when his skull cracked.
It was also during the crawling process that Li Yue discovered that the leg fracture didn't affect his movement at all. It didn't hurt at all, just a slight itch, as if it was healing.
Since there was a strange thing, its value should be very strange, right?
The entire mansion seemed to have become a giant Rubik's Cube, with each room being a large block, flipping, folding, and misaligning.
Li Yue had heard about this kind of mysterious item when he was traveling with Gamma.
There was a doll in the bedroom, with button eyes, looking at Li Yue, with a slightly curved line mouth smiling.
Skinny stared blankly at the house, unsure whether to continue waiting or go back to the Ironhorn Inn sooner.
The ground in the courtyard was also shaking a bit.
Then the angle was still increasing—Li Yue watched as the ceiling slammed towards him, and quickly kicked a big hole in it.
Why not appraise them one by one?
A hideous hole appeared in the floor, leading straight to the depths, with a faint sound of wind.
And Li Yue finally had the leisure to further observe the layout of the house, trying to find the source of the flipping…
Thinking like this, Li Yue appraised while using his X-ray vision.
Looking through with his X-ray vision, except for the living room and the hallway being clear, the other rooms were stacked on top of each other—the bedrooms were all blurred together, the kitchen was skewed outside the bedroom, and there was a storage room in between, which was very chaotic.
The outer walls of the house were slightly deformed, occasionally producing cracks or bulges, making the battle inside seem unusually calm.
“Bang!” In mid-air, Li Yue punched through the wall again, hanging in…
The paper ball unfolded into a square, three-dimensional origami mask, like a house, or like a human face, with various fold lines drawn at the eyes.
Anyway, it's just a flipping house, right? It doesn't cause any damage to the outside world, no wonder the Cleaners and the New Church haven't come to deal with it forcefully.
Worth 3 gold coins, completely exceeding the value of paper.
And when Li Yue inside fainted and woke up again, he was surprised to find himself lying in the living room, the walls of the corridor leading to the seventh floor had been completely smashed, and the paper mask was nowhere to be found.
Understood, it's not that kind of fracture…
This time the folding started from the bedroom, and the fold was right at Qu Xiao's knees!
As for whether Norton was still on the other side of the street, there was only the boundless night.
