Immediately afterwards, what fell into Li Yue's "eyes" were two round, short, red "people".
They are round, less than one meter tall, like two sweet potatoes or two pineapples with arms and legs.
Minnie Minnie—their names appeared in the memories of the main body, and Li Yue also grasped the relationship between these two little things and himself...
Partner?
Li Yue didn't know how Nao Ling had a partner, nor why Nao Ling's partner was not Nao Ling. However, the immediate feeling of closeness made Li Yue give up attacking them, and instead subconsciously recalled more.<
/p>
The scene in the memory is a bit fragmented, but the main thing is that the two little red sweet potatoes kept extending their arms, frequently passing the books on the library shelves from all angles and placing them on the table; while Li Yue and Nao Ling next to him
They use their minds to turn over the books and read something diligently.
Translation, yes, Li Yue recalled, the brain spirit in the library... The basic job is translation - translating various books in the library into the common language of demons and transmitting them to slave scholars.
For demons, knowledge is neither important nor unimportant - after all, you can't expect a demon who is obsessed with killing and enslaving... to have the patience to learn how to improve wheat.
But equally, the library itself is a treasure trove of knowledge, but the knowledge in it is profound and complex and requires endless inheritance and sorting.
Therefore, a certain city lord assigned a task, using the brain spirit's ability to "read" the will in the book, and then raising a group of "slave scholars" who are proficient in the devil's language to form the basic translation team of the library.
On a daily basis, the brain spirit reads the will in the book and conveys it to the slave scholar. The slave scholar records it in the devil's language to complete the "renovation" of knowledge so that subsequent devils in need can access it.
Brain Spirit is an indispensable part of it - after all, the books in the library are in various languages, and only Brain Spirit can read them effectively, so "translation" has become the daily life of Brain Spirits.
"Why...don't you speak?" Li Yue was thinking in this room, and the two little sweet potatoes in the other room said in unison, with their two pairs of small eyes crowded together, quite awkward, "The brain spirit that was captured...you are the only one who came back.
Already..."
No malicious intent.
"I'm lucky... I'm back..." Li Yue had mixed feelings - Minnie Minnie often helped Li Yue get books from the bookshelf. This partnership... Strictly speaking, they are colleagues, but they are also a bit like
Family.
"But... I heard that you were taken to the Colosseum to participate in the Killing Cup..." Minnie's tone revealed worry, "The Killing Cup is a life and death battle..."
"So they are all dead." Li Yue thought of a new question - if he was the only brain spirit left in the fifth library, would someone find out the identity of the escapee?
Oujibuji still hopes that he can help him repay his money. If his identity is discovered, he will definitely die.
Immediately, Li Yue remembered... the brain spirits in the library will always be replenished to maintain a certain number - if a brain spirit dies, a new brain spirit will be born in the first library the next day.
This may be due to some unknown magic.
In other words, as long as the Minnies and Minnies in front of them do not reveal their identities, tomorrow, the new brain spirits and the old brain spirits will be mixed together, and there is no risk of being discovered.
Of course, the premise is that Minnie and Minnie are not exposed.
[Parsing...40%...]
Li Yue activated the Devil's Illustrated Book and prepared to assess the risk of exposure - if Minnie Minnie's behavior could not be predicted, Li Yue felt that the only option left was to kill and silence... Although the two little sweet potatoes are quite cute.
"So tomorrow...will you be taken away again?" Minnie's little eyes widened.
[Parsing...80%...]
"This is not necessarily true. As long as you don't tell others about my return, I won't be taken away." Li Yue explained patiently, while also recalling every moment with Minnie and Minnie - these are two innocent people.
Little things, like the brain spirits, live in the library cautiously, serving those higher-level beings.
"Then we won't say anything!" Minnie and Minnie high-fived each other and made a "pop" sound with their two little hands.
[Minnie Minnie; Distribution: Library; Lifespan: 20-50 years; Habits: Working in pairs, being well-behaved and independent, faithfully executing the orders of partners, even if it sometimes causes their death; Hobbies: working/being praised/stretching
Li Yue almost couldn't believe the introduction given by the Devil's Illustrated Book - How could there be such a simple monster as Minnie in the Demon King's City? And its weakness is "scold"? What? If you scold, you will die?
And the hobby is "work", is it so complicated?
"Please help me keep the secret...Thank you, you are the best." Li Yue abandoned his messy thoughts and solemnly conveyed his thoughts to the two little sweet potatoes in front of him.
"Of course!" Minnie Minnie vowed in unison.
【Help Brain Spirit No. 13 keep the secret!】
[Current object...status: happy/firm...]
Li Yue saw the feedback from the Devil's Illustrated Book and was 99.9994% relieved.
"You must be very tired, why don't you take a rest?" Minnie jumped up on her little feet and stretched her arms suddenly!
"You can still rest for three hours, and then we can work together again!" Minnie pointed her finger at the magic hourglass on the table in the fifth library.
"By the way, even though you won't eat it, we still left some food for you and hid it in your house!" Minnie waved her hand sheepishly and pulled Minnie back.
Li Yue was first shocked by the stretchability of Minnie Minnie, and then looked leisurely at his "home" - the wall hole in the northwest corner of the fifth library.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
The hole was filled with hard pieces of meat that looked like cinders. There were many, many of them, which were Minnie and Minnie’s daily “wage” and the love they dedicated to Li Yue.
"Thank you..." Li Yue sighed.
"You're welcome! We are family! See you soon!" Minnie said goodbye, and the two chubby little sweet potatoes ran out of the fifth library, trudged across a broken floor tile, and got ready to start work. p>
Li Yue's thoughts were churning, feeling the strange smell of the hard meat, and feeling the slightest warmth.
……
The Colosseum, on the throne, the moon is bright.
After a "night" of carnival, Ojibuji woke up leisurely...
The King of the Colosseum looked at the paralyzed succubus beside him and the monsters in the audience who had not returned from the carnival, and grinned, full of a sense of accomplishment, as if he was inspecting his own kingdom.
However, there were two obedient skeletons not far away, becoming one of the few out of place monsters in the kingdom, which made Lord Okibuki a little annoyed.
"What are you two losers doing?" Oujibuji recognized them as the skeletons that escorted Nao Ling away yesterday. He guessed that they had something to say, and the voice came out of their noses.
The two skeletons looked at each other, and after pushing and shoving, one of the skulls spoke with a relatively sharp and angular skull: "Report to Mr. Okibuki...last night...there was a commotion in the vegetable field."
"Vegetable patch? What happens next?" Oujibuji didn't know what this had to do with him.
"That...last night's victor brain...can't be found..." After pondering for a long time, the skeleton finally said, "No one saw it leave. It may have died in the chaos..." p>
"What?" Oujibuji suddenly swelled, "Say it again?"
The sharp-edged skeleton immediately fell silent, while the other one seemed to be cooperating, and continued: "Maybe he escaped! But the commotion was quickly stopped, and there was no sign of the brain spirit escaping...
”
"Did I ask you to speak?" Oujibuji was furious, and with a wave of his hand, mosquitoes and flies were released, eating up the skeleton that had just spoken.
"Where is your captain?" Ojibuji still remembers his confidant.
"The guardian of the vault said... the captain left the vegetable garden and came to the vault last night... and took away the Ultimate Magic Stone..." The sharp-edged skeleton's teeth trembled, "But after the commotion... it also disappeared. The vault
The watcher is the last one to see it!"
Did you take away the ultimate magic stone? Defected?
Ojibuki resisted the urge to kill the skeleton soldiers in front of him and thought silently. The only sounds left next to the throne were the buzzing of flies and the trembling of bones.
"I'm going to find it right now!" The skeleton soldier couldn't bear it anymore and volunteered, "Even if it's dead, I will find it!"
"Looking for? Looking for a bone in the castle?" Ojibuji spat out a mouthful of flies, "Go find the witch Winnie. I heard she is very good at divination..."
As soon as the words came out, Oujibuji suddenly changed his mind: "No, no, no, no, I can't understand what the divination gave me... Go to the mouth of the abyss! Borrow a hellhound! Tell it to catch up with the brain.
The taste of spirit..."
"No, no, the price for guarding the mouth of the abyss is too high. I am even more at a loss if I rush to find him. I want to..." Ojibuki paced back and forth, with the skeleton soldiers standing beside him and the flies, which made him even more tormented. p>
"Yes! Is there a man named Bodcoli among the warriors in the Colosseum? Ranked 281? I remember he was once a slave owner?" Okibuki finally thought of a lower-cost option, a reliable option.
, "It is said that no slave can escape from his supervision? He sacrificed three thousand of his slaves just to become a devil?"
How dare the skeleton speak, but I do remember that there was such a guy in the Colosseum. At this moment, maybe he was having a private banquet in a single room in the lounge, or maybe he was enjoying himself in the pleasure room?
"Go to him! I want to know where my brain went last night, where my captain went, and where my money went!" Okibuki waved and shouted.
"Yes!" The skeleton soldier turned around and trotted towards the castle as if he had been granted amnesty.
"Forget it, I'll go by myself..." Oujibuji held his belly and stood up, taking steps... But the skeleton soldier who had just ran not far was instantly wrapped in flies, without a single bone.
