After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 514

The kidnapping went on for a few more hours in different areas around Fargo, and the various teams soon converged as their captain—Garan—had finally arrived in the area.

Through the Aether letters, they had mapped out each others’ locations and determined where to meet up. For safety, every one of their ’victims’ had sacks on their heads (made from cheap hemp cloth—very rough—with a quality they usually used as mops in Altera). There were even a lot of dirt and bugs in there, just to make things harder for the bastards.

Garan decided to set the meeting in Mao’s camp, which was most mature due to Chris’ OCD and Mao’s convenient earth abilities.

Eagle’s was also nice, but they camped very near the mines and, due to the number of people there, there were also more mobs. They cleared some to lower the death count of the slaves, but now that the team had to meet up, it was not practical to be there anymore.

Speaking of mines, they looked at the three new rescues they had. One was a poor thin guy named Thomas. Next to him was a former policeman named Bruce and finally a little girl named Lina. They all used to be from Bright, and they naturally had a lot of questions about what happened to them.

Anyway, when they got rescued and were treated, they told Eagle and the others about what these men did to their people. While the Alterans couldn’t touch those stationed in the mines (yet) to remain low-key, they certainly vented a lot on the ’kidnapped’ men.

Naturally, Eagle forwarded the info to Garan and the rest of them. Considering what they knew, every and each one of these bastards—perhaps except Gian—had violated other people in that way. Whether it was man or woman, adult or child—they had done something gruesome to at least one of them.

The imagery burned everyone’s stomachs into acid, consequently adding several more bruises to the Fargo men.

Sammy, in particular, was very passionate about torturing the bastards more. They would kick, punch, and step on random balls, enticing many many yells around.

They would scream and sometimes a bug would enter their mouths and then their souls would die of disgust. The bugs they put weren’t lethally poisonous, but a few of them did have some very painful effects on the men, especially when their immune system was down due to their various injuries.

There were plenty of men who asked to be killed because it felt like they were being bitten by ants from the inside. They weren’t, but the tingling paralysis effect of the bugs was something they’d note for future reference. _{fгeewebnovёl.com}

When someone was especially annoying, Mao would get more bugs—they had learned a lot about these things through Althea—and then placed them in their clothes, before kicking them again, yelling at them to ’stop dancing’.

The others watched the show in interest, and Mao looked at the ’slaves’, pointing at the bastards currently being tortured by Sammy. "Would you like to try? It’s very therapeutic."

Thomas and Bruce looked hatefully at the men on the floor, but sighed in the end. "Unfortunately, we cannot hurt them even if we wanted to," Thomas said, and Bruce nodded.

"But we are happy to see them suffering like this. Thank you, for everything."

Sammy smiled, "No problem. We’re kind of indirect old friends, after all," he said and the policeman smiled.

Bruce had already heard about Tom and the others from Eagle—it was the first thing he asked when he realized they were from Altera.

His baby daughter was doing well in Altera. He heard they had also enrolled her to the school there. He also heard from Sir Garan that she even played in the arcade.

Bruno couldn’t imagine what kind of arcade they could build in a place like this, but they said Lily was smiling and that was more than enough for him.

Regardless, the largest weight had been lifted already and he could smile so widely despite being a lowly slave because of it.

Thomas, on the other hand, looked at the men suffering vindictively. While there was none among them who had taken advantage of his wife, he knew these people had done similar things to others so he still hated them to the core. Seeing them suffering like this made his eyes water a bit.

Ah, he wanted to stab them too, but unfortunately he was still a slave.
