Early the next morning, outside Lin'an City, at Marcus's shooting range.

At this moment, the shooting range seemed exceptionally quiet. Inside a soundproof room, Lu Yu and Marcus stood watching a large metal reclining bed, equipped with metal restraining straps—quite intimidating at first glance!

Beside the metal bed stood several physicians from the Assassin Alliance, all looking solemn and extremely tense.

"Sir, this is a modified bed originally used for electrotherapy at a mental hospital. I've upgraded it to provide high-voltage electricity that perfectly meets your requirements."

Looking at the metal bed, Marcus introduced it respectfully, his words full of humility.

"Excellent!"

Seeing the metal bed and hearing Marcus's introduction, Lu Yu nodded, appearing very satisfied.

Simultaneously, he slowly removed his clothes, revealing his chiseled musculature, exuding an unusual strength: "Well then, let's begin now."

Saying this, Lu Yu prepared to lie on the metal bed.

"Sir"

Just as Lu Yu was about to lie on the metal bed, Marcus hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Please reconsider; this modified bed's high-voltage electricity can kill a normal person instantly…"

Marcus's voice was low, filled with persuasion.

Lu Yu and Zhou Fengming's strength still had some disparity. Initially, Lu Yu wanted to use the Zhou Family's four elite members' power to enhance his own strength.

However, the Zhou Family's four elite members proved to be extremely disappointing.

Thus, Lu Yu had no choice but to turn to this extreme method, hoping to use electric shocks to further enhance his genetic makeup!

Only under near-death conditions and immense pressure could Lu Yu's genes be further enhanced, so he resorted to this last-ditch effort!

"Marcus"

Hearing Marcus's words, Lu Yu smiled and said, "Don't worry. I am fully aware of the risks involved in this electric shock."

Lu Yu's words appeared relaxed, as if this wasn't a big deal.

"Sir, if I may speak frankly"

Hearing Lu Yu's words, Marcus said, "Although Zhou Fengming's strength currently surpasses yours, we could ambush him at Yixian Public Cemetery and shoot him directly, sparing the need for extreme measures like this."

Marcus was incredibly loyal to Lu Yu, and continued to persuade Lu Yu against attempting such extreme methods.

"Marcus, if we were only considering Zhou Fengming, you're right—we could set up a killing formation with a dozen brothers and ensure Zhou Fengming's demise!"

Lu Yu nodded and said, "But our enemy is not just Zhou Fengming!"

"Behind Zhou Fengming, there's a hidden Noble Family, and the Dark Sanctuary has marked me as their primary target."

Lu Yu explained the situation to Marcus: "Furthermore, there's the silent Paradise Island, which cannot be dealt with through mere killing formations."

Saying this, Lu Yu paused and then continued, "So, enhancing my strength is imperative!"

Lu Yu explained all the pros and cons to Marcus.

Upon hearing these words, Marcus became silent.

He knew what Lu Yu was saying was true, and couldn't refute it.

After all, although Lu Yu seemed leisurely now, he was actually in grave danger, making strength crucial.

Seeing Marcus's silence, Lu Yu smiled slightly and patted Marcus's shoulder, saying, "Don't worry, nothing will go wrong!"

Saying this, Lu Yu lay on the metal bed, smiling and instructing the physicians, "Begin!"

"Yes, Sir!"

Upon hearing Lu Yu's words, the physicians nodded and fastened the metal straps around Lu Yu to prevent him from struggling and interrupting the process.

Among all present, Lu Yu held the highest status, ensuring no one dared disobey him.

After fastening the metal straps on Lu Yu, the physician pressed a red button beside him, looking at Lu Yu, and said, "Sir, I will press this button in a moment, the electric shock will last for five minutes, please endure!"

"No problem, go ahead"

Hearing the physician's words, Lu Yu spoke, then moved slightly, his muscles suddenly tensed, transforming into a fortified state, ready to endure the electric shock!

"Have the medical preparations ready; should anything happen to Sir, I will hold you responsible!"

Upon hearing the physician's words, Marcus instructed.

"Understood!"

In response, the two physicians replied, their words full of respect.

"Begin!"

Once ready, Lu Yu instructed.

Upon hearing Lu Yu's words, the two physicians nodded and immediately pressed the red button for the electric shock!

Zzzt!

At the moment the button was pressed, with a buzz from the electrical current.

Visible blue electric currents enveloped Lu Yu, appearing incredibly dramatic!

When hit with the shock, Lu Yu's body instantly surged with blood, his entire body became engorged, and the red sun tattoo on his chest was prominently visible!

At the moment his body surged with blood, Lu Yu's body trembled slightly, veins bulging, looking terrifying on the metal bed!

During the shock, Lu Yu felt as if countless scorching steel needles were piercing him, with pain and an awakening of a searing sensation coursing inside him chaotically!

Beep!

As the electric current struck Lu Yu, a watch-like device on his wrist emitted a crisp sound, its screen lit up, its values flashing rapidly, appearing prominently.
