54: Chapter 54 Soul-Searching Torture! A Trembling Sound from the Bloodfang Tribe!
"Wait!"
"Leave him alive!"
"Bring him... to me!"
Qin Yu's cold and urgent voice exploded in Chen Xiao's mind like a sudden clap of thunder!
The Armor-piercing arrow about to leave the string was forcefully stopped by Chen Xiao!
A look of deep confusion flashed across her heroic face.
Leave him alive?
Why bother leaving a survivor among these man-eating beasts?
In Chen Xiao's view, shooting them through the head and letting them die in pain and despair was the best purification for these demons!
But the will of the god was not to be questioned.
"Yes!"
Without a moment's hesitation, Chen Xiao stowed her longbow and gestured to the two Valkyrie beside her.
"Capture him alive!"
"Yes, Captain!"
Two tall, athletic Valkyrie immediately rushed forward.
The cannibal, burned beyond recognition, clearly heard the movement behind him.
In the only intact eye on his charred face, the final madness of survival erupted!
With his one functional, blackened arm, he desperately clawed at the rotting leaves and mud on the ground, trying to crawl into the bushes not far ahead!
If only he could crawl inside, he could survive!
However, a foot wearing an exquisite animal-hide combat boot descended from above, ruthlessly stomping on the back of his hand!
*Crack!*
The crisp sound of bone fracturing rang out!
"Aaaaah!!!"
The cannibal let out a shrill, inhuman scream, his entire body twitching violently on the ground from the pain!
The two Valkyrie arrived, and like picking up a chick, they easily hoisted the nearly 1.7-meter tall adult male off the ground and dragged him before Qin Yu.
*Thud!*
He was thrown heavily onto the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.
The disgusting stench of blood, burnt flesh, and excrement made the surrounding Valkyrie frown and step back.
Only Qin Yu stood there expressionless, looking down at the groaning "creature" on the ground.
"My God, will you interrogate him personally?"
Su Qingyao walked to Qin Yu's side, a hint of worry and disgust in her beautiful peach-blossom eyes.
"Such a filthy thing is not worthy of tainting your eyes."
"I have plenty of ways to make him talk."
Chen Xiao also approached, a sharp dagger polished from a Saber-toothed Tiger's fang appearing in her hand at some point.
She licked her lips, a dangerous glint in her eyes.
She had at least ten ways to make this savage cry out everything he knew after suffering through torture.
"No need."
Qin Yu waved his hand dismissively.
What he wanted wasn't an ordinary interrogation.
What he wanted was to completely crush the other's soul to obtain the most truthful and complete intelligence.
Qin Yu slowly crouched down, meeting the curled-up cannibal's gaze.
The cannibal was in agony, but when he saw Qin Yu's eyes, deep as a cold pool, his body suddenly stiffened!
In those eyes, he saw no anger, no hatred, not even a trace of emotion.
All there was, was an absolute indifference.
An absolute indifference, like a god looking down upon an ant!
This indifference terrified him more than any torture!
"Aw... ga... (Kill... me...)"
He squeezed a few hoarse, blurred syllables from his throat, his eyes even showing a hint of pleading.
He would rather die than face those terrifying eyes again!
"You want to die?"
A cruel arc curled at the corner of Qin Yu's mouth.
"That would be too easy on you."
With that, he reached out his right hand and slowly pressed it onto a hard, bluish-black rock the size of a millstone nearby.
Everyone present, including the cannibal, had no idea what he intended to do.
The next second.
Qin Yu's gaze suddenly sharpened!
*Buzz—!*
His five fingers suddenly exerted force on the rock!
A visible, violent surge of energy erupted from his palm!
*Crack... Crunch... Bang!!!*
That incredibly hard, massive rock, which even a sledgehammer might struggle to break, first showed countless spiderweb-like cracks under Qin Yu's palm!
Then, with a dull roar, it exploded!
It turned into a spray of gravel and dust!
"..."
The entire forest clearing instantly fell into a dead silence!
Chen Xiao and the ten Valkyrie all watched this scene dumbfounded, their mouths hanging open wide enough to fit an egg!
They knew the Clan Leader was strong!
Strong enough to tear apart a Titan Python with his bare hands!
But to see him crush a millstone-sized rock into powder with one hand so vividly!
This visual impact still left their minds blank and their hearts pounding wildly!
Was... was this even human strength?!
This was clearly a miracle! It was the true power of a god!
And the cannibal lying on the ground was simply scared witless!
His intact eye bulged like a copper bell, nearly popping out of its socket!
Looking at the gravel on the ground and then at Qin Yu's unblemished hand, which didn't even have a speck of dust, his entire body began to tremble violently like a sieve!
Fear!
An uncontrollable, extreme fear from the deepest depths of his soul instantly consumed all his reason!
It was as if he weren't looking at a human.
But a monster in human skin, ten thousand times more terrifying than the most horrific ancient beast in his Tribe's legends!
"Now, I ask, you answer."
Qin Yu slowly stood up and lightly kicked the cannibal, who had completely broken down and was now wallowing in his own filth.
"Get one word wrong, or let me think you're lying..."
Qin Yu's gaze fell upon the cannibal's intact left leg.
"...and I will crush every single one of your bones, one by one, just like this rock."
"Do... you... understand?"
The cold voice, like a demonic tone from the deepest hell, bored into the cannibal's ears.
"Waaaaaah!!!"
Unable to bear the horrific mental pressure any longer, he let out an extremely shrill scream. Tears and snot streaming down his face, he began to kowtow frantically to Qin Yu!
"I'll talk! I'll talk! I'll tell you everything! Please! Don't kill me! Don't crush my bones!"
In a slurred but rapid native tongue mixed with a few simple words, he began to frantically pour out everything he knew.
Standing aside, Su Qingyao used her mental power to translate and organize the chaotic information.
A few minutes later, Qin Yu had all the intelligence he wanted.
This Tribe called itself the "Bloodfang Tribe."
Just as Su Qingyao had sensed, there were over a hundred and twenty adult males capable of fighting in the Tribe!
They worshiped a blood god named "Kura," and were obsessed with sacrificing the heads and blood of intelligent beings to gain the blood god's power.
And the leader of the Bloodfang Tribe was a giant of a man named "Gulu"!
According to the prisoner's description, filled with awe and fear, their leader Gulu was over two and a half meters tall, possessed immense strength, and could flip an adult Triceratops with his bare hands! He was the blood god's messenger on earth!
"One hundred and twenty warriors..."
"A leader two and a half meters tall who can flip a Triceratops..."
As Chen Xiao listened to Su Qingyao's translation, her expression became incredibly solemn.
This force far exceeded their estimates!
In a direct confrontation, their small group wouldn't even be enough to fill the gaps between the enemies' teeth!
However, Qin Yu's face remained as indifferent as a still well.
It was as if, in his eyes, a hundred and twenty enemies were no different from a hundred and twenty pigs.
He had obtained the information he wanted; the prisoner was now worthless.
Seeing Qin Yu's cold gaze, Su Qingyao's heart tightened, and she couldn't help but ask softly:
"My God, how... should we deal with him now?"
Qin Yu glanced at the Bloodfang tribesman still kowtowing and begging for mercy, and a cruel smile that sent shivers down everyone's spine curled on his lips.
"Deal with him? No, don't be in a hurry."
"He still has one last use."
Qin Yu's gaze turned toward the depths of the jungle, in the direction of the Bloodfang Tribe's lair.
"Coincidentally, don't we still need a scout on our way to their lair?"
"Don't you think using his life to test the traps and poisonous insects in the swamp for us is a great way to recycle waste?"
