Chapter 348: Interrogate

Waldo was somewhat surprised by the subterranean giant’s physical resilience.

Then, he glanced at the mechanical arm on Gray’s body.

What’s the purpose of this thing?

Gray heard the unfamiliar language and paused for a moment.

Regardless of what the other person was saying, Gray didn’t care.

He threatened directly, "Outsider, how did you come to our world? I advise you to leave immediately, or you’re doomed! Do you know that I’m from Base Three? If you dare to kill me, Base Three’s people can catch you in the shortest time possible and torture you in a thousand ways! You can still escape now, or it will be too late! Then, not even a deity can save you!"

Gray’s face contorted, unsure if it was due to the pain making his face contort or if it was because of his inner anger!

However, after hearing this, Waldo looked confused.

He couldn’t understand what the other person was saying at all.

The languages were incompatible.

Waldo raised an eyebrow.

The subterranean giant’s language isn’t any language I know; how can we communicate?

While scratching his head, he suddenly thought of the basic system that every player had.

So, he quickly asked, "System, load the subterranean giant’s language pack for me!"

*Ding!* Loading the subterranean giant language pack will cost ten thousand experience points!

Load!

Soon, a multitude of information appeared in Waldo’s mind.

He felt a refreshing sensation in his head.

Waldo knew that he now possessed the subterranean giant’s language.

He immediately used the subterranean giant’s language to speak to the subterranean giant before him:

"What’s your name?"

"What? You, you can actually speak our language? Why?"

Gray widened his eyes in disbelief as he looked at Waldo.

He suddenly realized that this person was an outsider and didn’t understand their language at all. This was evident from the fact that the threats earlier seemed to have been incomprehensible to the other person.

However, in less than a moment, the other party directly spoke their language.

Moreover, it was quite proficient!

It was simply a miracle.

However, Gray quickly realized the situation and contorted his face menacingly. "I advise you to release me immediately, or you’ll die."

He had initially intended to threaten the outsider.

However, before he could finish his sentence, his expression suddenly changed.

Due to the pain, his face twisted instantly.

At the same time, a shrill and agonizing scream erupted from him. "Ah! Ah! Ah!"

It turned out that a knife had somehow appeared in Waldo’s hand and was plunged into Gray’s chest, creating a gash.

In an instant, Gray was drenched in cold sweat.

"Who are you? Where are you from? Also, what is this world like? Tell me the truth!" Waldo’s voice was indifferent.

His eyes were filled with killing intent and a sinister aura.

At the same time, an terrifying aura suddenly emanated from Waldo, exuding a powerful sense of oppression.

It made one feel immense pressure and deep fear both physically and mentally.

"You’ll never threaten me! You, an insignificant outsider, you’re doomed!" Gray spat out, trying to muster the last of his defiance. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

The next moment.

"Ah! Ah! Ah!"

Gray screamed again.

This time, the scream was more pitiful and heart-wrenching.

It turned out that Waldo had directly cut off his ear.

In an instant, half of Gray’s head was soaked in blood, and the scene was terrifying.

Due to the intense pain, Gray’s face had completely distorted.

"Here’s your last chance. If you don’t speak now, you can disappear from this world. I believe there’s more than just you, an inhabitant of this world. If you die, you die. I can go find others!"

"What is this ’Base Three’ you mentioned? Also, what kind of world is this? Tell me the truth!"

"Remember, it’s your last chance. Will you speak or not? Don’t force me to kill you!"

Waldo’s voice was icy and indifferent.

It made one feel like they were in an icy abyss.

At this moment, Waldo was genuinely determined to kill.

In the air, the sense of killing intent seemed to materialize.

A faint crimson aura gathered around him.

Gray’s breath caught in his throat.

This outsider is so terrifying! His aura seems to have reached the level of the elders in Base Three!

A look of astonishment and fear appeared in Gray’s eyes.

He was frightened by the aura Waldo displayed.

He intends to kill me! If I don’t speak, I will definitely be killed by him!

No, I can’t die!

Gray struggled slightly in his heart.

Soon, he abandoned his bottom line.

In the end, with a look of despair and helplessness, he said, "Ask whatever you want. I will answer what I know."

However, the condition is that you promise to spare me! Otherwise, I will never talk!

Upon hearing this response, Waldo was very satisfied and smiled faintly.

"Rest assured, as long as you answer my questions without concealing or deceiving, I can spare you. But if you dare to deceive me, I will use countless methods to torture you. Let you truly experience what it means to be better off dead!" Waldo showed a sunny smile.

However, to Gray, this smile seemed eerie, with a hint of a deathly aura.

In that moment, he felt as if everything about him was laid bare. He didn’t dare to lie about anything.

"What is your name?"

"Gray!"

"Why do you have mechanical arms? What happened to your original arms?"

"It’s a scientific technology we developed. We replace our arms with mechanical ones, significantly increasing our combat abilities. Moreover, it doesn’t affect our daily lives. In our base, mechanical enhancement is quite common."

As he spoke, Gray saw the puzzled expression in Waldo’s eyes.

After a moment of contemplation, he raised his hand slightly.

The mechanical arm was as sharp as the keenest blade, easily cutting a deep gash into the ground.

Then, a dark barrel appeared on one of his mechanical arms.

On the other mechanical arm, there were several gun barrels.

Seeing this scene, Waldo narrowed his eyes. Seeing this, Gray hurriedly explained, "After we replaced our arms with mechanical ones, our strength was greatly enhanced in various aspects. Weapons are just one aspect. The reason I can fly is also because of the mechanical limbs!"

Hearing this, Waldo nodded.

Mechanical arms could be considered a good invention, effectively boosting a person’s strength.

However, the limitations were also obvious.

After undergoing mechanical enhancement, further improvement became increasingly difficult.

Afterward, Waldo didn’t stop and continued to ask other questions.

During this process, he kept a close eye on Gray.

His gaze was sharp, carefully observing the subtle changes in the other’s facial expression. At his current level of strength, his eyes were not much different from x-ray vision.

Once he discovered a lie, he would take action without hesitation. Perhaps sensing Waldo’s intense intent to kill and his own pounding heart, Gray was filled with fear and dared not deceive in the slightest. Once caught lying, he was likely doomed.

Originally, the underwater world’s inhabitants were giants. Many years ago, the technology in the underwater world suddenly advanced rapidly.

Giants began to explore the red sun in the sky and other worlds. Later, with the progress of scientific technology, giants started researching technologies like mechanical modification and genetic alteration.

However, at that time, the technology level was limited and prohibited by various countries, so progress was slow.

Soon after, due to resource disputes, the world erupted into war. Almost the entire order of the underwater world was destroyed.

In the darkest times for the giants, some individuals crazily researched mechanical and genetic modification.

They experimented on ordinary humans, which resulted in a large number of them turning into zombies. The zombies gradually lost control and occupied the cities.

The surviving giants had to leave the cities and establish new bases. Up to now, there were a total of thirty-seven bases in this world.

Each base varied greatly in population, ranging from tens of thousands to several million people. The base Gray belonged to, the third base, had around 170,000 inhabitants, making it a medium-sized base.

Within the base, the strongest were the ten elders. According to Gray, the hierarchy in this world consisted of Earth Level, Sky Level, and Red Sun Level. The ten elders of the base were terrifying powerhouses at the Red Sun Level.

Gray explained the comparison: the Earth Level was equivalent to a level sixty to seventy survivor. The Sky Level was comparable to level eighty or ninety survivors. The Red Sun Level was akin to a level ninety-nine survivor!

The entire Third Base holds the elders in extremely high regard, and they rule over us. It’s said that they can even communicate with the terrifying beings on the red sun.

Even the deities on the red sun are connected to them!" Gray spoke with a serious tone.

"People like me who have undergone mechanical modifications are quite common. There are also those who have undergone genetic modifications, but the risks are substantial. Look at those zombies, they are the outcome of failed genetic modifications. I’ve shared all I know. Please, I beg you, spare me!" Gray pleaded.

The pressure from this outsider was just too overwhelming. Despite being much smaller in size, the sensation he gave was like facing a terrifying entity. Any impulsive thoughts were irrational.
