Chapter 1399 - 1398: Torment?

When it came to the massacre that happened in the Lu Family that night five years ago, Lu Yu had always been seething with anger. From that night on, he went from being the biggest playboy in Lin'an City to an orphan who'd lost both parents.

Not only that, his entire family fortune vanished overnight. This sudden upheaval hurled him from a lofty rich young master into an endless abyss.

And the one behind all of this was the Shadow Luo Organization!

If not for the perfect Divine Blood Potion his parents left behind, Lu Yu would have died on Paradise Island long ago. How could he still be alive now!?

Yet the Controller in front of him actually said those words just now, which made Lu Yu furious beyond measure!

As for that year's events, Lu Yu had learned some of the inside story through relentless investigation. He knew his parents had entered the Shadow Luo Organization back then purely for research. Before joining, they hadn't known what kind of organization Shadow Luo really was!

After all, even the European Federal Authority had been fooled by the Shadow Luo Organization back then!

And now, in the eyes of Shadow Luo, his parents had been nothing but tools—obey and they could live, resist even a little and their entire family would be wiped out. Not only that, after annihilating his family, Shadow Luo still wanted to use his parents' research results to fulfill their ambitions. This kind of thing filled Lu Yu with rage!

But even in his fury, Lu Yu did not let anger cloud his mind. He was very clear about the purpose of this feigned defeat, so although he was burning with rage, he still didn't do anything overly drastic.

Because Lu Yu knew that if he wanted revenge, he had to calm himself down!

A moment of impulse only led to destruction; only a steady hand could achieve his goal!

He understood this truth very well. Precisely because of that, Lu Yu didn't say much at this moment. He simply waited quietly for what was going to happen next.

"The equipment is ready."

Just as Lu Yu was suppressing his anger, Ludwig's voice suddenly rang out: "We can put Lu Yu directly into this container now!"

As he spoke, Ludwig's voice carried a low, playful note; he was clearly looking forward to what was about to happen.

"Ludwig, how confident are you about this?"

Almost the instant Ludwig finished speaking, the Controller's voice abruptly sounded: "I captured Lu Yu this time because I want him to play a critical role in the organization's growth. I don't want him dying in this container!"

To the Shadow Luo Organization right now, Lu Yu was unquestionably a massive treasure—not only because of the Divine Blood Potion in his body, but even more because of his terrifying strength.

Lu Yu's power made the Controller feel pressure and suffocation, and that overwhelmingly strong body truly made people tremble and gape in shock.

So the Controller had no intention of letting Lu Yu die just like this!

"Relax."

Hearing the Controller's words, Ludwig chuckled and said, "This machine can be controlled to kill or not kill. Right now I'm only restraining and detaining him. He'll suffer some torment staying inside, but it won't be fatal!"

"After all, this brat is a huge treasure. I'm also very curious what we can get out of him!"

As he spoke, a hint of depth flickered across Ludwig's face.

"That's good!"

Hearing Ludwig's words, the Controller nodded. At the same time, with a wave of his large hand, the container restraining Lu Yu suddenly floated up and hovered above the culture tank.

"Open!"

Seeing the container reach the top of the culture tank, the Controller spoke softly, then moved his palm and gave a fierce wave!

Crash!

With that motion, Lu Yu's whole body dropped straight into the green culture tank.

Once he fell in, Lu Yu was completely submerged by the green culture fluid. His eyes snapped open, a cold, sharp light flashing within.

"Don't panic!"

Seeing Lu Yu in the culture tank, Ludwig spoke: "This culture fluid is absolutely harmless and even beneficial. You can rest easy about that!"

As he spoke, Ludwig shook the tablet in his hand and said, "But whether you can endure what comes next—that, I don't know."

While he talked, Ludwig began operating the tablet. His speed was so fast it left one's eyes spinning.

"Of course, we're definitely not going to kill you. But we do have some tortures prepared!"

Still speaking, Ludwig's face was full of dark gravity. Looking at Lu Yu before him, he said, "For example, this right now!"

As he spoke, Ludwig didn't hesitate in the slightest and directly activated the device!

Buzz!

The device started up with a dull hum, and immediately a huge oppressive force surged toward Lu Yu's body!

"Huh!?"

At this moment, Lu Yu let out a questioning grunt. Staring at everything before him, a hint of surprise flashed through his eyes.

This surprise wasn't because of the pressure itself, but because he didn't feel any corresponding pain at all. All he felt was that his body was subjected to immense pressure. Other than that, he sensed all the muscles and cells in his entire body constantly undulating; at a glance, it felt very strange!

"This will do!"

Seeing this scene, Ludwig nodded and said to the Controller, "This level may not be extremely intense, but an ordinary person definitely couldn't take it. So we just need to wait a bit; we'll have results soon enough!"

As he spoke, Ludwig was full of confidence. At the same time, he completely handed Lu Yu over to this experiment in an instant, giving off a faintly ominous feeling at first glance.

"Very good!"

Hearing this, a trace of satisfaction flashed in the Controller's eyes. He nodded to Ludwig and said, "Since that's the case, we'll come back in twenty-four hours!"

As he spoke, the Controller appeared very relaxed and indifferent. However, neither he nor Ludwig noticed the wicked smile at the corner of Lu Yu's mouth!
