Tortured to a Mental Breakdown

"This blade is for me," Lin Zhiluo said calmly.

The blade plunged straight down.

"Next, the path this blade takes represents the ten years I spent hiding and living on the edge of death. It's a pity that the pain you're feeling isn't even one percent of what I endured." Lin Zhiluo revealed a smile.

To Li Haobo, this smile was the smile of a devil.

Ten years? What was he saying about ten years?

I only started thinking about torturing you three years ago, after I found out about that matter!

Li Haobo had no idea what Lin Zhiluo meant.

He wanted to argue.

But in the next second, his confusion and his defense were already too late.

Because the dagger had actually started to move!

After moving for a long time, Lin Zhiluo finally pulled the dagger out.

"This blade is also for me."

After speaking, the dagger plunged deep once again.

However, Li Haobo could no longer scream, because his entire throat had been ruined.

"This blade is because I'm happy."

A trace of a smile appeared on the corner of Lin Zhiluo's mouth.

This smile held no warmth; instead, it made Li Haobo feel a chill throughout his entire body.

"This blade is for the Lin Family... even though I never met them, it's only right for a son to avenge his father, isn't it?"

Lin Zhiluo's exquisite blade technique finally found a use.

"This blade—who cares who it's for!"

Pulling out the dagger, Lin Zhiluo took out a card and chose to activate it.

[A Useful Pair of Tweezers]

He looked at Li Haobo and revealed a meaningful smile.

"Wha... are... you... doing..." Li Haobo was terrified. Even though he could no longer speak, he forced these blurred sounds out through the friction of his throat.

Under so many rounds of torture, he had already become numb to the physical pain.

But Lin Zhiluo's smile brought his mind to the brink of collapse.

"I have to thank you. This is a torture method you invented yourself. Who knows how many people you've tortured to death using this trick."

"I have to give you credit; you really are quite talented when it comes to torturing people."

After saying this, Lin Zhiluo forcibly pried open Li Haobo's mouth.

Li Haobo seemed to realize something.

He thought of the ideas he had once had himself.

Could it be...

He began to struggle desperately, the frequency of his struggle even more intense than when he was in pain before.

But it was completely useless.

"No! No..."

Unfortunately, it was too late!

Li Haobo's spirit completely collapsed.

His self-esteem and pride shattered at this moment.

He instantly stopped struggling, becoming as motionless as a dead pig.

His eyes lost all their luster, turning into a gray, vacant haze.

If not for the slight rise and fall of his chest.

He would truly be nothing more than a corpse.

"That's it? I've barely used even one percent of the things you did to others, and you're already done for."

"You still have quite a few good items among the torture methods you researched."

Lin Zhiluo felt incredibly annoyed.

He had only reached the halfway point of his torture, and Li Haobo had already completely broken down.

In this state of mental derangement, ignoring pain and ignoring torture, continuing to torment him would have no effect at all.

"He isn't faking it, is he?"

Lin Zhiluo used the dagger to give Li Haobo a series of rapid stabs.

But Li Haobo showed absolutely no reaction.

Well, I overestimated him; with his acting skills, he couldn't possibly have faked this state.

Forget it, being able to break Li Haobo mentally is proof enough that this entire process has reached its limit.

After all, it combined the techniques Lin Zhiluo had honed over ten years of experience.

Looking at Li Haobo on the ground, Lin Zhiluo stood up.

Taking the Tetanus Dull Blade into his hand, he activated the skill Explosive Dual Slash.

He delivered a double slash directly toward Li Haobo's head with the dagger.

Because the force was not great.

It did not even reach the root cause.

However, the next second, the mark exploded.

Li Haobo's head was instantly detonated by the mark.

If Lin Zhiluo hadn't taken out an umbrella to block it in time, he would have inevitably been splattered all over.

It was also at the exact moment of the explosion.

"Dong, dong, dong."

The antique clock in Li Family Manor chimed three times right on schedule.

This signified that three o'clock in the morning had arrived.

It also signified that everyone in the Li Family Manor had been buried tonight.

"Hoo."

Lin Zhiluo let out a breath.

At this moment, his heart became incredibly relaxed.

He had been urgently improving his strength before the apocalypse precisely for the success of this revenge.

Now, the stone that had been weighing on his heart was finally lifted.
