Inside the sterile room, the interrogation was still going on. The scar-faced man smiled and said, "Very good. Elder Nether Spring, you are very cooperative. If we continue to cooperate like this, you will not have to endure such torture anymore. One last question. Who is' Abyss'? Tell me the answer, and you can die now. "
On the dozens of light beams, Elder Nether Spring's brainwaves suddenly became agitated. He roared, "There is no 'Abyss'. There is none! Why don't you believe me? "
The scar-faced man stared at him coldly for a while and said to his assistant, "Inject 'Brain Exciter' with three times the normal dose into his brain to amplify his senses. Then, inject the venom of the Gold Jellyfish with five times the normal dose. Ensure the activity of his brain cells with electric shocks." Zi! Zi!
"Zi Zi Zi Zi!"
Zi! On Elder Nether Spring's big, bald head, the crystal wires and the tubes of drugs were tightened one after another. His gray eyeballs were almost popping out of their sockets. Tears of blood were even flowing out of the corners of his eyes.
On the surveillance light beams, the curves of his brainwaves were fluctuating crazily, too!
"Ah! Ah! I'll talk! I'll talk! It's Ling Yu. It's Ling Yu, the head of the confidential department of the General Staff of the Union Army! "
Elder Nether Spring screamed miserably. His shrieks seemed to be tearing apart the broadcast rune arrays!
The scar-faced man and his assistant analyzed the situation on the surveillance light beams for a moment. One of his assistants, who looked like a Meditation Healer, shook his head and said, "The brainwaves are not right. He is lying."
The scar-faced man slightly frowned and hinted his assistant to increase the efficacy of the drugs again. As one of the virtual runes on the light beams was pushed to the highest level, Elder Nether Spring's eyeballs were rolling fast, and he was foaming at the mouth. Even his body, which was several meters away, was bouncing like a frog that had received an electric shock.
"Why are you doing this, Elder Nether Spring? You are a great man of your generation. None of us can bear to see you end up like this."
The scar-faced man sighed. "You have failed miserably, and there is no hope for you to make a comeback. Why are you still protecting 'Abyss'? All the Children of the Nether World have been fished up by us. 'Abyss' alone is not going to be able to raise any trouble!
"Speak now. More than a hundred Children of the Nether World have been killed. Abyss is not a big deal, right? Tell us, and we'll save you the trouble. You can also be free from this humiliation and pain forever, right? "
"Besides, all the Children of the Nether World have betrayed you. Can't Abyss betray you? Who knows, he might have already tossed you to the back of his mind. He might even wish for you to die! You're so stubborn, but he's out there having fun. I really feel bad for you! "
On the light beam, Elder Nether Spring was like a cluster of melting ice. He said, dying, "It's Di Mingxin, Di Mingxin, the secretary of the minister of defense of the Federation … No. It's Guo Chunfeng, Guo Chunfeng, the supervisor of the first division of the Secret Sword Bureau … It's …"
The scar-faced man looked at his assistant, who kept shaking his head.
The scar-faced man's voice gradually turned cold and hard. "Elder Nether Spring, we respected you as a senior of the Blood Demon Sector and showed you some respect. But now that you have changed your attitude, don't blame us for being merciless!
"You forced me to lie!"
Elder Nether Spring completely collapsed. He roared, "There is no Abyss! There was no abyss! There was no abyss in the first place! What do you want me to tell you?
"It's impossible for Abyss to exist. Don't you understand? His loyalty cannot be guaranteed at all!
"It was decades ago when I released the Children of the Nether World. At that time, I hadn't grasped the advanced genetic technology yet. How could I have absolute control over them?
"The regular Children of the Nether World often sent intelligence back to me, and I sent them the situation of their families in the Blood Demon Sector. That was the only way to maintain their loyalty to the demon race and to me! Hehe. Even so, they all betrayed me in the end! They all betrayed me!
"If there is really an Abyss who doesn't know that he is a demon at all and has done nothing wrong to the Federation, even if I 'activate' him, there is no evidence to prove that he is a demon except for me and him!
"Then, how can I control him? How can I persuade him to pledge his loyalty to me instead of the Federation that he has lived in for decades? "
The scar-faced man and his assistants listened calmly. It seemed that they had heard it more than once.
Perhaps because of the Brain Exciter, Elder Nether Spring's mind was clearer and clearer. He roared, "Abyss is just a disguise. A disguise to cover the Children of the Nether World!
"My original plan was to release Abyss, the nonexistent ultimate Child of the Nether World, once you sensed the existence of the Children of the Nether World, so that you would suspect each other and panic. In the meantime, the Children of the Nether World would jump out and accuse someone who posed a threat to them of being Abyss!
"In such a way, if Abyss was not found after a long investigation, the investigation of the Children of the Nether World would be greatly discounted, too. There would be enough time for them to deal with the situation calmly!
"In short, Abyss is the 'protective shell' of the Children of the Nether World. There is no Abyss at all!"
The scar-faced man glanced at his assistants. This time, the assistants all nodded after studying Elder Nether Spring's brainwaves carefully.
"It's about time, isn't it?"
Shou Yuxuan observed coldly. He couldn't help but say, "You've asked the same question more than ten times, and the answer is the same every time.
"Under such super stimulation, he felt as if an entire eighteen levels of hell were smashing into his head every second. Yet, he was still able to lie without being seen through by you. How strong must his willpower be? It's impossible! "
"He does have a point. If the Children of the Nether World can betray us, the possibility of Abyss' betrayal is even higher! You said it yourself. If we were Abyss, we would want him to die as soon as possible. As long as he is dead, there will be no evidence to reveal our identity!
"If there is really an Abyss who considers himself a human being all the time, how can he be controlled even if he is activated? There is no way to control him at all!
"The conclusion is that Abyss does not exist and is just a 'protective shell' for the Children of the Nether World."
The scar-faced man pondered for a long time. Looking at Elder Nether Spring's soul that was gradually spreading out on the light beam, he said, deep in thought, "However, a small area deep inside his brain has always been covered in gray fog, which we can't crack at all."
Shou Yuxuan did not think it was a big deal. "That's the nature of a human brain. Even if 99% of the secrets can be exploited through soul-searching, 1% will always be unpredictable. It may be the memories from a very long time ago that have nothing to do with our plan. There's no need to bother."
The scar-faced man and his assistants discussed for a while. In the end, he stood straight and nodded. "Alright. The results of the last nine interrogations have all been the same. We can finally reach the final conclusion that Abyss does not exist!"
"Director Shou, our problems have basically been solved. The brain will be yours for most of the time."
The scar-faced man extended one of his fingers and flicked the center of Elder Nether Spring's eyebrows on the enormous light beam. He smiled and said, "Thank you for your cooperation, Elder Nether Spring. In fact, the Abyss that you came up with was truly a marvelous idea. It could've caused serious interference for us.
"Unfortunately, Man proposes, God disposes. In the end, you suffered so much. Haha, you can't blame us for this. If you want to blame someone, you can only blame yourself."
Elder Nether Spring had completely lost the strength to argue. He said helplessly, "I've told you everything. Let me die. Let me die …"
"I don't have any questions," the scar-faced man said. "However, Director Shou has a lot of things that we need to talk about."
"You promised me that you would kill me if I told you the truth about Abyss!" Elder Nether Spring roared. "You lied to me! You lied to me!"
The scar-faced man sneered. "Everybody has the right to kill evil. Why do I need to keep my word when dealing with such a monster like you?"
"Ahhh! Ahhh! Ahhh! "
Elder Nether Spring was beyond infuriated. For a moment, his brainwaves were so intense that they seemed to be breaking out of the light beam and erupting like a volcano!
The head that was placed inside the transparent box and the body that was nailed to the operating table were both shivering crazily and unleashing overwhelming spiritual waves!
"Not good!"
One of his assistants exclaimed. "There are signs that his brain is being stimulated crazily by 'Brain Exciter' at seven times the normal dosage!"
"What!"
The scar-faced man was shocked.
"He must've hidden part of the 'Brain Exciter' while he was controlling his brain!"
Another Meditation Healer shrieked. "Right now, all the 'Brain Exciter' that he has been hiding has been activated, allowing his brainwaves to soar to the maximum!"
"Di! Di! Di! "
Under the stimulation of Elder Nether Spring's brainpower, the barriers that were nailed to his body penetrated out of his body and pierced into the ceiling!
He waved his hands and feet crazily. Caught unprepared, the few Meditation Healers were all thrown to the wall, their bones broken!
"Suppress him!"
The scar-faced man roared. Dozens of torture devices that looked like iron tusks immediately darted out from below the metal operating table and pierced into Elder Nether Spring's body deeply, fixing him to the operating table.
The three Core Formation Stage Cultivators in the corner all jumped to their feet. Three storm bolters that had been modified were stabbed into Elder Nether Spring's body brutally. Powerful electric arcs spurted out of the barrels. After a series of lightning bolts, Elder Nether Spring's body was almost burnt into charcoal!
The transparent box that stored the head was injected with a certain deep blue liquid, too, which froze it into ice instantly!
Elder Nether Spring's body was suppressed, and his brain was completely frozen. It seemed that his resistance was going to end in failure!
BOOM!
Right then, the sterile room suddenly shook violently. The spiritual energy that was injected into all the magical equipment suddenly soared!
The Cultivators must've accidentally hit the pivot of the defense array when the battle between them and the Nine-Headed Ocean Devil was at its fiercest, causing all the magical equipment inside the secret base to overload instantly!
"Shua!"
On the enormous light beam, Elder Nether Spring's illusionary face put on a mocking smile after the serious interferences, before it gradually dispersed like ripples.
