The king of monsters, a being feared by mortals, a destroyer of reality and a reformer, the literal villain boss.

It sounds very cool, but in fact it is completely different from what Pei Renli thought!

He inexplicably traveled through time, and then inexplicably took over as the new demon king. He could accept these magical things if he gave Pei Renli some time. At least he could time travel to a carriage driving in the snow in the mountains without his vision going dark.

Yes, it's a good thing to have a gagged guy next to you...

——I always feel that the definition of a good thing is getting lower and lower.

But not only is his demon king basically the same as the polished commander, but he suddenly discovered that there is also quite fierce competition among the demon kings. From the details of what the host said before, it can even be concluded that there are gangs among the demon kings.

'Facts.

This is really a squid rolled up on an iron plate.

Reality does not require logic, and all sorts of outrageous things can happen. Who could have imagined that even if you traveled to a different world, you would have to face involution...

But no matter how much shit Pei Renli had been holding in his heart and wanted to let it out, he had no ability to change the status quo, at least not yet.

The light that enveloped him appeared very suddenly, but disappeared very quickly, lasting less than a few seconds. When he felt the brightness on his eyelids decrease and opened his eyes, he found that his eyes had changed places again.

The first thing that caught the eye was an ancient masonry wall. Pei Renli appeared in a "face to the wall" state. The tip of his nose was only ten centimeters away from the wall. If he had been closer, he would have bumped into it.

Blinking his eyes that were flashed by the bright light, Pei Renli was about to turn his head when his field of vision went dark again. The so-called Demon King System from before popped up, directly covering most of his field of vision with a black screen that came into his eyes.

Only this time there is no longer Pei Renli's name and a big hourglass on it, but a line of words instead.

‘Survive the scary castle by any means’

This line of text did not disappear immediately, but as if after confirming that Pei Renli had definitely read it, it disappeared together with the black screen blocking his vision, and his vision returned to normal.

Pei Renli: A lot of people were panicked.

What the hell! How did you survive?

Originally, it could only be said that the plot developed too fast and was a bit confusing because it could not keep up with the rhythm. But now, it has directly escalated to a question of life and death.

As a child who grew up in a normal and civilized society without any illness or disaster, Pei Renli was worried that if he failed in the exam, he would be beaten twice when he returned home. He was also worried that the school holidays were too short and would not be enough for him to enjoy himself.

I play games, but I really don’t think about life safety.

After all, the security of our country is one of the best on the earth server. Besides, he is still very young, so why would he worry about this? If he has such leisure, he might as well play games.

As the saying goes, life is a book that constantly discovers surprises, and there are always more surprises than joy...

However, neither complaining nor panic could really solve the problem. Pei Renli had to take a deep breath with his confused head and force himself to calm down.

First, let’s sort out the situation.

Regardless of the unanswered questions, Pei Renli felt that he should have traveled to a world with magic.

This can be guessed from both Ravna's words and Perrenli's experience.

And this magic thing...

Sorry, except for games, Perrenli only knows Harry Potter. Besides, it is common sense on earth that is fantasy, and there is still a question mark as to whether it can be used in other worlds.

This is a completely unknown territory for him, and he must be extremely careful.

Secondly, he knew that the location he was in now was called the Horrible Castle. Moreover, the Ke-type tauren who claimed to be the Elegant Demon King specifically said that the Horrible Castle was very dangerous. Even if the difficulty was 'Elementary', he still could not be careless. Its original

It is said that it requires not only courage, but also wit and luck.

When it comes to wit, Pei Renli is a little confident, but when it comes to luck...

He felt that he had been experiencing ups and downs recently, but he didn't know if there would really be a law of conservation of luck that would allow him to bottom out and rebound.

Finally, the prompt on the Demon King system added a sentence at the end that there is no limit to the means. This should not be added casually.

The host mentioned before that there are 600 new demon kings, and those who enter the horror castle are all new ones. It is possible that these 600 people are all unlucky people like Pei Renli, but this is not certain.

After all, some of the devils in the stands looked like humans, while others were so grotesque that even the forensic doctors who pieced together the corpses said they couldn't bear it.

If these newcomers are all as confused as Pei Renli and can only be regarded as healthy ordinary people, then it would be okay, but if they are different from Pei Renli, they have a certain degree of power that cannot be explained by science.

…

There is no limit to the means, that is to say, it is no problem to betray your teammates, and it is no problem to push other people you meet to block the knife. It just so happens that Pei Renli has just traveled through time, and even the so-called Demon King System was less than ten minutes ago.

Only then did I see that he was a high-quality cannon fodder for this group of people.

What's more, the Demon King's system just said "Survive from the Horror Castle". How long will it take to survive? What are the conditions for passing the level? Or does it mean that the number of people needs to be reduced to a certain number?

He knew nothing about all of this, and compared to a bunch of unscientific guys, Perrenli had no advantage at all, not even an intelligence advantage. The situation could be said to be overwhelmingly unfavorable to him.

——It turned out to be hasty when I agreed before.

The situation was such that Pei Renli quickly found his position.

Stay in bed, do whatever you can to stay in bed, and try not to come into contact with anyone unless necessary.

He didn't know how terrifying the Castle of Terror was, and he didn't know whether the guys thrown in like him were kind or malicious. What he knew best was that he was probably a lamb to be slaughtered here.

After quickly sorting out the current situation and general course of action, Pei Renli was in the mood to look around.

This should be a small room with a masonry structure, less than ten square meters in size. There is a milky white light ball floating in the center of the ceiling about five meters high. It may be magic or something, providing the most basic lighting.

He was facing a wall, and on the left was a very simple wooden bed. The mattress was nothing more than a pile of straw, with a yellowed white sheet covering it.

On the right side, you can see a wardrobe, which is also very simple. It has not even been varnished, and burrs can be seen in many places. The wardrobe looks very shabby, and the wardrobe door is hanging down as if it might fall off at any time.

Next to the wardrobe was a semicircular window, which was sealed by a palm-width wooden slat. Pei Renli took two steps to check. Through the gap in the wooden slats, he could see an wrought iron window outside, which also looked like

No one had taken care of it for a long time, and it was covered in glaring rust.

But when I looked out the window through the gap, I could only see a deep darkness and couldn't see anything else at all.

Turning his head, Pei Renli carefully approached the closet.

The Elegant Demon King said that survival requires more wit and luck than courage. Pei Renli has nothing to do with luck. He can only find ways to do the best he can and try to survive.

So he was as cautious as if he were dismantling a land mine. He opened the broken door of the wardrobe and jumped back. He was afraid that something would appear and his face would be blurred. He waited for two seconds and saw that nothing happened.

, and then we got closer.

There were no clothes in the closet, and the first thing that caught his eye was the large amount of dust that was thrown up. Pei Renli fanned himself with his hand to avoid choking, and then saw a stick placed in the closet...

Short stick?

It was iron grey, about thirty to forty centimeters long and two fingers thick, and glowed in the overhead lighting, like metal.

He didn't want to touch such an unknown thing, but considering that it was the only thing that could barely be used as a weapon so far, Pei Renli had no choice but to grit his teeth and touch it quickly. Seeing that there was no other reaction from it, he took it away.

in hand.

There was dust just now, so I couldn't see clearly. When I took it into my hand, I discovered that there was a structure that seemed to be able to rotate in the short stick. It rotated clockwise, and with a crisp sound, the two ends of the short stick poked out one after another.

, one end is sharper and becomes bright silver, and the other end is a pier. It feels like it has changed from a short stick to a spear that is slightly shorter than a spear. When you turn it in the opposite direction, it returns to the appearance of a short stick.

Having a weapon in your hand can bring you a sense of security, but how effective can it be...

Then there is no need to have high expectations. After all, Pei Renli is not a martial arts master, so how can he use cold weapons?

Turning around with a short stick, Pei Renli saw that opposite the window sealed with wooden slats was a leaky wooden door, and on one side of the wooden door, there was a portrait painting.

But the colors in this portrait painting seem to have melted and blended together. Originally it might have been a painting of a person in a dress, but now it looks more like a roaring ghost creation. It’s really scary at first glance.

.

I just looked over the side of the bed and found nothing else except straw. Even though Pei Renli physically didn't want to get close to the somewhat scary oil painting, I had to say that it was the only place in the room that I hadn't seen yet.

Not daring to touch it directly, Pei Renli put a short stick against the bottom of the frame and pushed hard. The painting was knocked off the tenons nailed to the wall, with the back side facing up.

Looking closer, you can see the words 'Silver is poisonous to any ghost' written on the back of the frame.

At first glance, the meaning is a bit unclear, but you can think of the bright silver part at the front of the short spear...

This reminder is supposed to tell you that the weapon in your hand can deal with ghosts, but it also made Perrenli realize that there really is a ghost here!

I was a little anxious at first, but now I'm starting to panic again.

At this moment, a burst of chaotic noise faintly broke into the ears. At first it was vague and not very clear, but soon it became closer and closer, as if it was coming from outside the door.

Pei Renli knew his position very well, but he thought that living alone in this small room of less than ten square meters was not a good choice. The current safety may be similar to the safe time at the beginning, but it does not mean that it will always be safe.

Besides, the room was too narrow. If something happened, he wouldn't even have room to escape.
