Crack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A heavy thud followed by the crisp sound of a bone breaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ce, in Cutter’s form, had his entire right arm flung backward! Looked like that blow had directly shattered his entire shoulder blade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm?\" The prison guard looked confused at first, then his face turned scornful. \"You're a lot weaker than I expected.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"True,\" Lu Ce nodded seriously. \"You too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, this wasn’t Lu Ce’s real strength—it was intentional.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His countless gaming experiences had taught him—if you haven’t touched the core mechanic, you’re not even close to a perfect clear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, if everything’s that complicated, why not just get himself fed?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seriously, you skipped lunch or something?\" he mocked as he looked at his mangled right arm and listened to the rising Pain Points in his ear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The prison guard exploded in fury. He had never seen someone this weak still run his mouth like that!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You're f***ing asking for it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His fist turned into a palm in an instant, clamping down on Lu Ce’s fist. Then, like swinging a steel whip, he flung him hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that moment, the sounds of bones exploding rang out one after another like firecrackers—his entire right arm went limp like a noodle, every bit of bone crushed to fragments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ce’s whole body slumped, but hearing the ten-point spike in Pain Points, he actually chuckled and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nice. You're way more efficient than that woman back then.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Prison guard: ?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glanced at Lu Ce’s arm, starting to doubt himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could someone really endure this kind of pain and injury?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This guy was weak—no doubt—but also apparently tough as nails?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What? Gassing out already? Need a break? Guess you’re all bark and no bite.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ce’s arm was now a useless noodle, and he had basically no combat power left—but his mouth was still going full throttle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The prison guard’s eyes turned blood red. He reached forward, grabbed Lu Ce’s shoulder, and crushed it instantly!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That bone-crunching sound, like smashing limestone, sent chills down everyone’s spines and made their teeth ache.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, not bad—you’ve got some variety~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd went dead silent. If “All eyes on me” had been an effect before, now no one could look away even if they wanted to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They’d never seen a tough guy like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And everyone was already familiar with how brutal the prison guard could be. Watching this live torture unfold made them shiver with fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But watching Lu Ce remain unfazed—even hurling insults—they couldn’t help feeling a mix of dread and admiration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the crowd, the real “Cutter” lowered his head, overcome by some strange emotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing another “him” endure such torment made him feel deeply uncomfortable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And as a Huaguo national, there was a buried admiration inside him—a kind of reverence for grand, epic sacrifice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at that imposter, Cutter couldn’t help but feel… like he didn’t deserve his own face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tch...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What the hell is happening?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other side, Xie Antong had been watching with a smile at first, entertained by \"Sin's\" chaotic moves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, her smile had gradually faded, and her body stiffened a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even after being in the game this long, she still found this level of inhumane torture disturbing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And this person—was “Sin.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She’d once speculated that “Sin” might lack pain perception or maybe had a psychological quirk that made him enjoy pain, but now…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, the man’s identity hadn’t been confirmed yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he really was Lu Ce...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her brows slowly furrowed as she looked at the body now twisted and broken beyond recognition. She couldn’t help but stand up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tch... you really gonna play it like this?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the middle of the field, Lu Ce hadn’t stopped running his mouth. He was still going all in, throwing insult after insult at the prison guard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What started as mocking had turned into outright verbal abuse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Put plainly—he was talking sh*t about the guy’s mother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guard was totally driven mad. But he was stubborn—he never tried to shut Lu Ce up or crush his vocal cords.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe he wanted to hear him scream in pain. But that was never going to happen—Lu Ce was having too much fun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Pain Points were still climbing—so what’s there to worry about?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right there, in front of everyone, his bones were almost all shattered. He looked like he was barely hanging on, clinging to life and consciousness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd was dead silent. On the other side, Xie Antong’s brows were knit tight. She was genuinely worried “Sin” might go too far and end up dead for real.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"See that?\" came the prison guard’s hoarse voice. \"That’s what happens.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m sure you all get it now. In this prison, you stay in line, serve your time, and know your place—that’s what matters.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t... bring trouble on yourselves for no reason.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, he grabbed Lu Ce—who was no longer able to move—and lifted him up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ce still had Cutter’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph!\" The guard, having vented a little, now had a slightly calmer demeanor. \"No power, and you still spout tough talk.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What now? Still planning to break out?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Still thinking about a rebellion? About a riot?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You never learn, do you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ce’s voice was broken and fragmented, but he still replied: \"Still digging your own grave.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright then, let me say a few more words.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m not alone. I don’t care about pain or death—because I can’t die.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m just a thought. A spirit. And if you don’t believe me, just watch. Even if I die, another me will appear.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That statement had a double meaning, but clearly, the prison guard only grasped one layer of it—he thought Lu Ce meant others with the same suicidal resolve would show up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heh, then let them come die too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, he dragged the barely alive Lu Ce toward “feeding.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in the crowd, when the real Cutter heard what Lu Ce had said, his entire body stiffened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What does that even mean...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other side, Xie Antong let out a sigh. She now understood what she had to do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She guided the All-Knowing Eye once more toward Cutter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In front of him, it began to etch words:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That one just now—he’s one of us.”\u003C\u002Fp>",1089,"2026-06-02T09:03:27.233Z",1,"novelbin.me","b0e13636c0967a8c0f4166fafc55a1eb5cd8af3a532d9c6b577788d13afdd2a2","pain-immunity-worried-the-villains-aren-t-twiste-chapter-248","pain-immunity-worried-the-villains-aren-t-twiste-chapter-246",867,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fpain-immunity-worried-the-villains-aren-t-twiste-cover.jpg"]
