Qin Lu dismissed the guard and took charge of interrogating Strelar himself. Without a word, Qin Lu ruthlessly gouged out Strelar's left eye.
"I will ask only once," Qin Lu's voice cut through the air like ice, sending shivers down Strelar's spine. "Where is the headquarters of the Seven Deadly Sins? Where is your leader? If you refuse to answer, I'll take your other eye, rendering you useless to them forever."
Strelar, clutching his bleeding eye socket, pondered his options. If he disclosed the location, there's a high chance Qin Lu would not infiltrate successfully as their security was too strong to penetrate. If so, nobody would know about his betrayal.
However, if he remained silent and lost his sight completely, he would become a burden to the Seven Deadly Sins, risking expulsion or worse.
Ultimately, he muttered the location to Qin Lu, believing he had no chance of infiltrating.
