"What''s going on?!" Yan Gaoyang was suddenly rmed, sensing a foreboding danger.


    An Tianwei quickly drew her twin des, crouching down and vigntly scanning the surroundings.


    Leading the way, Su Qinggu squinted his eyes and, finding nothing unusual, sneered, "Hmph! ying tricks..."


    Before he could finish saying the word "tricks," a sharp sound of a crossbow bolt pierced the air. A massive crossbow bolt pierced through his thigh, pinning him to the ground.


    "Not good!! We''ve walked into an ambush!!" An Tianwei eximed, attempting to turn and flee.


    Yan Gaoyang, equally alert, turned to escape as well.


    "Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!..." Crossbow bolts seemed to rain down without restraint.


    A continuous series of crossbow mechanisms firing echoed.


    Rows of bolts shot out from the void, urately and mercilessly striking An Tianwei and Yan Gaoyang. The limbs of both were instantly pinned to the ground. Yan Gaoyang had four or five bolts lodged in his abdomen and chest.


    "Where are these crossbow boltsing from?! What the hell! Where are these crossbow boltsing from?!!" Su Qinggu, pinned to the ground, shouted while looking around, but he couldn''t see any crossbow mechanisms or anyone!


    There was absolutely nothing around, yet a continuous barrage of crossbow bolts was unleashed!


    "This damned ce!!!" he cursed.


    "Friends, how about my weing gift?" The voice of the man came through the inte again.


    In an instant, the scene before the three of them changed!


    Before their eyes, a city suddenly appeared out of nowhere!


    And above the city were rows of massive crossbow mechanisms!


    In addition, there was a towering artillery turret with cannons inside, directly aimed at the position of the three of them.


    A man walked slowly from the city gate.


    Suddenly, several mutated beings with various forms appeared around them.


    There were cat people, fox people, horned people, centaur-like beings, werewolves, and even vampires!


    Including the mysterious man, there were a total of seven mutated beings!


    "Damn it! Yan Gaoyang, didn''t you say he''s alone? Where did all these mutated beingse from? And there''s even a city! Damn it! You''ve led me to my death!" Su Qinggu shouted in terror at the barely breathing Yan Gaoyang, trembling hands reaching for the bottles of liquid-like red virus crystals hidden in his chest.


    Yan Gaoyang looked at Alex with a gaze full of unwillingness, weakly asking, "Who... who are you..."


    Alex disdainfully nced at the two, walked over to An Tianwei, and casually touched her leather armor. He smirked, "This armor is not bad. Wearing this, it must feel great."


    "Sniff..." Pipi walked over to the three and sniffed, reporting to Alex, "Master, I smelled these three before. All three of them are mutated beings."


    "Tie them all up and take them to the dungeon!" Alex couldn''t resist making good use of the information and puppets that walked right into his hands.


    Alex looked at the weapons dropped by Su Qinggu and An Tianwei on the ground, satisfied with the disy. He gestured, "This stuff is good!"


    Alex remembered that the centaur woman had always had a strong talent for archery. Handing the bow and arrow to the centaur woman should be quite fitting.


    "Yuanyuan, haven''t you always liked archery butcked a good bow and arrows? This one is perfect for you." Alex took the quiver from Su Qinggu''s back and handed it to the centaur girl Yuanyuan, saying, "It''s a pity there are only twenty-something arrows; be thrifty in using them in the future."


    "These dual des are also good; they''ll suit Koko well. Although Koko''s military dagger is good, it''s just made of ordinary steel and is prone to wear." Alex rudely snatched An Tianwei''s dual des and handed them to the delighted Koko.


    As for the snake-girl Miaomiao and the cat-eared girl Lansiruo, they didn''t need weapons; they themselves were the best weapons.


    As for the fox-girl Qianqian, it seemed she currently had nobat talent. Alex didn''t n to let her go into battle; it was a good choice to keep her by his side as a support for daily life.


    The three of Su Qinggu were quickly taken into the dungeon.


    Alex opened the building list, nced at it, found "ughterhouse of ves," and said to the system, "Upgrade the prison into a ve ughterhouse!"


    With a bnce of two thousand Apocalypse Coins, and now with new prisoners, Alex intended to test the power of the "ve ughterhouse."


    [ve ughterhouse: upies two hundred square meters, uses underground space without conflicting with other above-ground buildings. Can confine ves who need punishment in the dungeon, subjecting them to endless torment, umting grievances, and producing resentment souls. Requires prerequisite building: ve Dungeon. Price: 1000 Apocalypse Coins.]


    [Sessfully selected upgrade to ve ughterhouse, conditions met...]


    [Consuming 1000 Apocalypse Coins...]


    [Currently upgrading...]


    As the electronic synthesized sound fell, the space in the dungeon suddenly began to copse.


    As if there was a sudden earthquake, everything spun, and the world seemed to tilt.


    The prison area rapidly expanded, and then, gloomy and horrifying cells formed one after another.


    The entire dungeon instantly became as terrifying as an eighteenyer hell, filled with the wailing and moaning of resentful souls everywhere.


    The air was thick with the scent of blood and gloom.


    In the middle of the cells, a ughterhouse adorned with bloody hooks suddenly appeared... read-only-on-NovelBin


    Alex pulled out the crossbow bolts one by one from Yan Gaoyang''s body, bringing outrge pieces of flesh and blood.


    Yan Gaoyang, who was already on the brink of death, emitted a series of piercing and miserable screams.


    The physical pain,bined with the continuous mental torment, made Yan Gaoyang wish for death.


    After removing the crossbow bolts, Alex lifted Yan Gaoyang and directly hung him on one of the hooks in the ughterhouse.


    Using the same method, he also hung Su Qinggu up.


    "Ah!!!!" From the moment they were hung up, the two of them let out heart-wrenching screams. They desperately scratched their bodies, as if countless demonic ants were gnawing at them. Despite tearing their bodies apart, they refused to stop.


    An Tianwei watched in horror as Alex subjected Yan Gaoyang and Su Qinggu to extremely cruel torture. Her entire body trembled violently.


    Even with excellent training and strong mental resilience, facing such brutality, she was on the verge of copse.


    Walking over to An Tianwei, Alex smiled as he removed the crossbow bolts from her. He then asked with a smile, "Tell me, what is the Red Skull organization? What are you nning?"
