Chapter 511: Weakening the Enemy
7 hours before D-Hour.
Speaking of hungry-beast-Mao…
A few hours before the declaration, the teams outside Fargo had entered the next step of the plan: Weakening the enemy.
Sure, Fargo had thousands of forces—but the aborigine members as well as the main fighters didn’t account for a small fraction of that. Taking down even just a few dozen of these men would discount Fargo’s ‘main’ forces by a lot.
Mao and the others luckily encountered a few of them early on—which they later found to be the team sent to ‘weaken’ Altera!
Bastards!
Naturally, they suffered a lot for their answers.
“JERK! JERKJERKJERK!”
Mao mumbled as he kicked the stomachs of a random enemy, and then proceeding on kicking the balls of another one.
“!!!”
They coughed wildly, swallowing some of the dirt that was on their face, making them cough even more.
For the past few hours, their kidnapped victims also had dust on their faces making it hard for them to breathe without pain.
However, other than the fact that they had use for a few of them alive, Mao and the others couldn’t kill everyone yet as it would be too alarming.
They had kept a few people, slowly killing them off bit by bit so it wouldn’t alarm Fargo—who was just likely to think they encountered mobs.
They killed most of the weaker ones first, and greatly weakened the stronger ones beyond the level limit. All members of the Rongo mercenary team though, had to be kept alive for now.
It would be too odd to lose so many high-level fighters when the monsters around were just village-level.
Not to mention: Not only would Fargo be able to see if his citizens died (and who died), but a perk of being in a mercenary team was that when a member died—every other member would be alerted of it.
Included in this alert was the location of death. They didn’t want that type of attention right now.
It didn’t mean they weren’t tortured though. And they were tortured very badly.
Mao looked at the men tied up and bloodied, with their bodies tied and barely able to move at all. They had set up camp here, and they had made these men suffer very badly.
They were dripping with their own blood, saliva, and piss. It was absolutely disgusting. They used a lot of the torture lessons they learned back in the military academy.
Mao admitted he was a bit vindictive. When they got into the fight with the ten people, a few of them were in the level 20s. In his team, only he and Chris were at that level so they did sustain a few injuries.
They had to use a paralysis bomb in advance! Ptoeey! What a waste!
It was their fault he lost 10 gold!
(Mao had a bet with Sammy from the other team: Whoever used fewer bombs before they reunited during the war would receive 10 gold from the other).
Mao kicked the man, which happened to be the leader, Impo. “Darn you! You owe me 10 gold!”
Impo: ???!
Anyway, when they could, they definitely made these men suffer lots of pain before most of them would get killed off when the war started.
Mao wished they could keep them for their victims to torture and see, but these people weren’t weak enough to let go like that.
“I wish I had a video,” he said, very regrettably. He was one of the people who tried egging Drake to charge his phone, but fortunately Luis—heh!—beat him to it, otherwise his precious phone would have been burned by now.

Chris sighed and shook his head, looking in Fargo’s direction. He then left Mao venting and went to look for their next target.
It so happened that a few of Fargo’s people were training to reach level 10.
The moment he found them and predicted their direction, Chris went to get the team. Mao buried the survivors with his abilities, leaving just their noses above ground before leaving to meet their new targets.
This group was fortunately far weaker than the previous ones. The next targets were also led by two aborigines, but their levels were just above the level cap.
They were menacing and at least a foot taller than the already-tall gangsters. They had obviously been out a while considering their blood-covered clothing and grime-filled faces.
“Target training eight people,” one—named Uko—said, “Sigh. So troublesome. Be thankful we’re getting paid for this.”
The gangsters, obviously Fargo’s men, looked at them with a bit of bootlicking. “We are honored to get the time of the very amazing Rongo Mercenary Team.”
The sycopant attitude evidently put the aborigines in a better mood. “Good that you are self-aware.”
Another man—a Terran—looked at his own screen and grinned. “I’m almost level 10!” He said, waving his fist around. “Heh. Just a bit more and I can handle the earth! The Lord and the others had already awakened, we’re going to be next!”
The aborigine sneered, “You people speak like everyone’s going to be an elementalist. Naive!” The lord and his closest confidantes awakening was already unbelievable, did these ants also think they were the same?
The Terrans frowned at this; they had a feeling that they were indeed elementalists. However, it was true that this wasn’t confirmed and the people insulting them were so much stronger, so they could only shut their mouths.
“Anyway, assuming I do awaken, I will so bury people alive!”
Another one of the terrans laughed at his companion, “Well yours is indeed convenient. And fitting. Because you’re always the ‘cleaner’ of our messes.”
The man glared at him, “Obviously, this is my time to shine! I am one of the first Terrans to be elementalist! I don’t have to be reduced to cleaning up corpses!”
“But your power…”
“SHUT UP!”
“Mine is water. I can do those water tortures at the flick of a hand!”
The aborigines looked at them in interest, obviously liking their attitude, but still disdainful for their wishful thinking.
Basically, the conversation shifted to how they’d use their elements to show power and bring terror to other people.
Chris and the others looked at each other and nodded.
