Apocalypse: My Tattoos are Ten Yama Kings-Chapter 106 - 104: Xu Family’s Research Breakthrough, Tycoon Infighting

Chapter 106: Chapter 104: Xu Family’s Research Breakthrough, Tycoon Infighting

Having applied honey, the ants began gnawing at Prajna’s flesh on her thigh, and Day Traveler tore open the tape sealing Prajna’s mouth.

She wanted to hear Prajna’s screams, which must be the most wonderful sound in the world.

"Ah!"

"Ah! Ah!"

The ants licked the honey, and Prajna’s flesh was gnawed down along with it.

Soon, Prajna’s leg was gnawed by the ants beyond recognition.

Prajna screamed in agony, her face twisted to the extreme.

Compared to Prajna’s agony, Day Traveler’s face showed a perverse excitement.

"Look...."

"Look! Your flesh seems delicious, they really like eating it!" Day Traveler pressed Prajna’s head, making her watch the ants gnaw her flesh.

"Spare me!"

"Day Traveler, I’m begging you, spare me!" Prajna was panic-stricken, like a frightened wild rabbit.

At this moment, in Prajna’s eyes, Day Traveler was simply a Demon Fiend.

"What a mood kill!" Day Traveler looked at the constantly begging Prajna and again took out tape, wrapping it tightly around her mouth to silence her.

Then, Day Traveler found many leeches from somewhere and placed them on Prajna’s other leg.

Day Traveler tortured Prajna for a whole day, such severe punishment would have been extraordinary even in ancient times.

At night, Day Traveler finally stopped.

"Time for dinner!"

"I can’t bear to let you die so soon, this is just the beginning, hope you last longer." Day Traveler’s tone was filled with unmistakable excitement.

At first, when tortured, Prajna had thought about dying.

But after a day of torture, Prajna had surrendered.

Now, a belief was sustaining Prajna.

She wanted to survive and then, avenge Day Traveler tenfold, a hundredfold.

"Where’s the food?"

"I need to eat!" Prajna’s voice was weak as she looked at the tray Day Traveler brought.

But, in the tray Day Traveler brought, there was no food!

In this tray, there was only a dining knife and a lit red candle.

Suddenly, Prajna seemed to realize something, her eyes showing a look of horror.

At this time, Day Traveler’s face revealed a bizarre smile and spoke slowly: "Want to eat?"

"Alright! I’ll let you eat!"

With that, Day Traveler picked up the dining knife from the tray and forcefully cut a piece of meat from Prajna’s leg.

The knife was dull, making a "zzzz, zzzz" sound as it cut into Prajna’s leg.

"Ah!"

"Ah! Ah!"

Prajna’s mouth let out cries of pain again, her body trembling from the intense pain.

After cutting off the meat, Day Traveler roasted it over the candle, asking, "By the way! I forgot to ask, how do you like your meat cooked?"

"Bitch!"

"You’ll die a horrible death, you won’t die a good death, I curse you!" Prajna gritted her teeth in pain, cursing.

In the face of Prajna’s insults, Day Traveler was utterly indifferent, she forcefully stuffed the piece of meat, still dripping with blood, into Prajna’s mouth.

Three days, a full three days.

In these three days, Prajna truly experienced what it was like to be better off dead.

On the morning of the fourth day.

The door opened, and Prajna saw Day Traveler standing at the entrance.

Instinctively, Prajna curled up her scarred body in panic.

By this time, she was already a shadow of herself due to torture.

Day Traveler came in front of Prajna, squatted down, and grasped Prajna’s chin, her face displaying a devilish smile.

"Prajna, my fun is over!"

"Time is short, I have to return to headquarters, or else they’ll get suspicious."

"Oh! I thought of a most special way for you to die!"

"Bitches like you, will surely love it!" After saying this, Day Traveler released Prajna’s chin and left.

In a moment, barking dogs were heard from outside.

The barking was incessant, soon, Day Traveler dragged more than a dozen large dogs into the room.

These large dogs had eyes bloodshot, as if pumped with adrenaline.

"Prajna, I’ve fed these little guys some special meds."

"You, just enjoy it!" After saying this, Day Traveler dropped the rope in her hands.

Then, she left the room, tightly shutting the door.

"Ah!"

"Get away, get away!"

In the room, Prajna’s cries of despair echoed.

Day Traveler held an urn, watching quietly from outside the window at everything happening inside the room.

An hour later, Day Traveler left with the urn.

Inside the room, only broken limbs and a few blood-stained iron chains remained.

Prajna was dead, dead after enduring unimaginable pain and torture.

....

....

Luo City.

A hundred miles outside the city on a country road, a black Wrangler SUV sped rapidly.

"Drive faster."

"The Deceitful King Faction won’t let us go. We must reach Peng City as fast as we can!"

"Hurry!" urged the chubby guy in branded sportswear from the passenger seat.

In the car, besides the chubby guy, there were three bodyguard-looking men.

These three bodyguards had faint energy fluctuations on them, indicating they were Life Pattern Masters, but not particularly strong ones.

The driver was a Tier Eight Life Pattern Master, while the two in the back seat were Tier Seven.

The SUV was speeding along; they didn’t dare take the main roads and could only stick to the countryside paths.

Because behind them, the Li Family’s hunting squad from the Deceitful King Faction was in pursuit.

A whole hunting squad, once caught up, could easily end their lives.

Escape.

They needed to escape to Peng City as quickly as possible, ever since Yang Dingguo forbade the Zhang Family from entering Peng City.

Even if it meant tearing up relationships with the entire conglomerate forces, only Peng City might offer them shelter.

As long as they could reach Peng City, the chubby guy had a chance to survive.

Because he held a bargaining chip for his life.

The chubby guy believed that once Yang Dingguo saw the bargaining chip, he would surely keep him alive.

...

...

Five Dragon Mountain shelter.

Bunker, inside Yang Dingguo’s office.

"Elder Yang, what’s the urgent matter?" Lin Yuan asked as he entered the office and casually sat on the sofa.

Tingling with curiosity, Lin Yuan had been researching the next step in his Awakening Hunt plan at home when Yang Dingguo’s secretary hurriedly summoned him.

"The conglomerate forces are having an internal conflict!"

"The Xu Family was exterminated by the combined forces of the other conglomerate families, leaving only the Xu Family Head’s only son to escape," Yang Dingguo solemnly explained.

Hearing this, Lin Yuan wasn’t surprised in the least.

In fact, he was somewhat excited.

Not a single good person in those conglomerates, the drama of dogs eating dogs is so delightful!

"A bunch of scum, it’s better if they’re all dead!" Lin Yuan said nonchalantly.

Yang Dingguo looked at Lin Yuan and asked, "Aren’t you curious about why the Xu Family was exterminated?"

"Curious, sure!"

"But I’m not asking."

"Because you’re definitely going to tell me voluntarily," Lin Yuan said smugly.

"You rascal!" Yang Dingguo pointed at Lin Yuan with a bitter smile.

However, even if Lin Yuan didn’t ask, Yang Dingguo had to tell him.

Because this matter was significant for Peng City, or rather, for all of humanity.

"The Xu Family was exterminated because their research team made a breakthrough."

"The Xu Family wanted to use this research result to gain control over one of the Deceitful King Faction’s hunting squads."

"The Deceitful King Faction has only nine hunting squads, all controlled by elite conglomerate families."

"The families controlling the hunting squads would never give up their control."

"When negotiations failed, the Xu Family refused to hand over the research outcomes. Without an agreement, the families directly seized them."

"It turned out that there are differences between conglomerate families; it was the Li Family that struck, annihilating the Xu Family overnight," Yang Dingguo shared the intelligence he had gathered with Lin Yuan.

The Xu Family!

Lin Yuan knew this family; they had their glory years, but had been deep in a debt crisis for a few years before the supernatural invasion.

But for the Xu Family to dare demand control over a hunting squad, it indicated the high significance of their research breakthrough!

Otherwise, the families controlling the hunting squads wouldn’t have risked internal strife to seize it.

"What kind of research breakthrough?" Lin Yuan asked curiously.

When the research result was mentioned, Yang Dingguo’s expression became considerably more serious.

"They developed a material that Deceitful Charms and Evil Spirits cannot penetrate," Yang Dingguo said with utmost seriousness.

"What?" Hearing this, Lin Yuan shot up from the sofa.

A material that Deceitful Charms and Evil Spirits cannot penetrate.

In his previous life, Lin Yuan struggled for three years in a world after a mysterious invasion.

But he had never heard of such a thing!

Perhaps it was because he, this small butterfly, flapped his wings, changing the course of the world.

"Elder Yang, I must have this research breakthrough!"

"No one can stop me!"

"This thing is simply too important!" Lin Yuan said excitedly.

Since the mysterious invasion began, the greatest losses to humanity.

Have been caused by those intangible Deceitful Charms and Evil Spirits.

For demon fiends like Bai Ling’Er, who have tangible beings, they’re relatively easier to deal with.

But those intangible Deceitful Charms and Evil Spirits are truly impossible to guard against.

Just to mention, the watchtowers at Five Dragon Mountain shelter.

The purpose of these watchtowers is because the towering and sturdy walls are essentially useless against those intangible Deceitful Charms and Evil Spirits.

Therefore, Life Pattern Masters need to constantly be on guard in the watchtowers to prevent these Evil Spirits and Deceitful Charms from entering Five Dragon Mountain shelter.

If we possess a material that Deceitful Charms and Evil Spirits cannot penetrate, then we could keep them outside the city walls.

Moreover, with this material, we could capture the Deceitful Charms and Evil Spirits alive.

By using this material to construct cages, we could trap these intangible Deceitful Charms and Evil Spirits for research purposes.

In Lin Yuan’s opinion, the Xu Family’s research breakthrough, forget about one Deceitful King Faction’s hunting squad.

Even ten hunting squads wouldn’t compare; this research breakthrough could even be called a game-changer for human destiny.
