Chapter 524: Death Sentence

Meanwhile, somewhere in Africa, at the secret base of "Wildfire."
Compared to other subsidiaries of the Fanghuan Group, "Wildfire" operates with far more freedom and unbridled style.
The base's head, Anthony Watson, even wields considerable autocratic power.
But there's one ironclad rule that no one dares to break—orders from the Group's Strategy Department must be executed unconditionally.
"Boss, this is the latest list from the Strategy Department."
"A list?"
"A group of local politicians who intercepted Fanghuan Foundation's donations."
"Oh, those clueless idiots."
Anthony took the list, a cruel smile curving his lips.
Not long ago, they had just "dealt with" a group of politicians who had disrupted the peace agreement between Guyana and Venezuela, and now a new "business" had arrived.
"Whether it's South America or Africa, headquarters is investing more and more manpower and resources," an adjutant remarked.
“Because this is untouched virgin territory, it’s easy to act,” Anthony said slowly, leaning back in his chair.
“To establish a presence in those developed countries, there are too many restrictions and obstacles.
But here, as long as we invest enough resources, wiping out a regime overnight is simpler than eating a meal.”
The people in the Strategic Department clearly understood this as well.
The implications of this list were self-evident.
Although the list didn’t mention “elimination” or “assassination” at all;
it included detailed information about the targets, their home addresses, lifestyles, and even their mistresses’ menstrual cycles, along with high-resolution photos…
This wasn’t just a hint; it was a blatant death sentence.
“These idiots, even if they’re desperate, they should know what they can and cannot touch.
They actually dared to target Fang Huan,” the adjutant spat disdainfully.
As the saying goes, even thieves have their code of honor.
These guys are clearly rotten to the core. They're blinded by money, forgetting who's behind it all, yet they dare to bite.
Now, it's time for them to pay the price for their greed.
"Distribute the list to the infiltrating action teams in various countries," Anthony ordered.
"Whether it's staged as an accident or a direct beheading, let them decide.
This time, we must make an example of them!
Otherwise, any Tom, Dick, or Harry will dare to provoke Fang Huan!"
"Yes! Also, the group just allocated a large sum of money to expand our manpower.
Special emphasis is placed on strengthening security in the school construction area."
School?
This word dampened the spirits of the "Wildfire" members present.
The reason they risked their lives here, protecting the volunteers and eliminating the warlords, wasn't for some noble charitable cause.
Their true purpose was to use this opportunity to eliminate local armed forces, survey the terrain, and pave the way for Fang Huan Group to ultimately control the resources and lifeline of this land.
“We’re just sent to protect the school… the brothers might complain about this mission.”
“Anyone who dares to complain will be sent back for re-education!” Anthony coldly glanced at his adjutant.
"Why do you think Fang Huan wants us to protect those schools?"
"This..."
"Because those children are Fang Huan's future assets! His most precious assets!"
Anthony said, enunciating each word clearly.
"Haven't you seen the latest intelligence? Fang Huan is planning to establish universities in various African countries!
Many of these children have never even seen a cell phone, they know nothing about the outside world, like blank slates.
Guess what it means to gather such a group of children together and subject them to Fang Huan's education from a young age...
Do you understand what this means?"
The adjutant's face instantly changed: "Could it be... a complete brainwashing education from childhood?"
"That's right!" Anthony's smile held a hint of cruelty.
"What we're cultivating is a group of fanatical believers who would never flinch if Fang Huan told them to jump into a fire pit!
To them, Fang Huan's teachings are the voice of God, the only truth they can access!"
Only now did everyone realize how far-reaching the plan was hidden behind the order to protect the schools.
Protecting schools is protecting the most precious and core foundation of Fanghuan Group's future!
"It's a bit...scary, and I feel sorry for those children."
"Sad? Not at all!" Anthony categorically denied.
"Rather than rotting away silently in a hell of hunger, it's better to become 'slaves' of the Fanghuan Empire!
They'll be well-fed and clothed, and even have the chance to become members of the future Fanghuan Empire, climbing to the top of the pyramid!
Isn't that a godsend?!
In my opinion, their future is far brighter than those children born in developed countries, living in a false sense of 'freedom'!"
Why is Fanghuan spending so lavishly in this barren land of Africa?
The answer is obvious.
To occupy this unclaimed land and establish their own order.
Then, to transform the local population into Fanghuan's most loyal and valuable private assets!
This isn't a business strategy; it's a modern-day version of colonization and deification!
It's practically...the devil in angel's clothing from the Bible!
"By the way, how's the matter I asked you to investigate?" Anthony changed the subject.
"Ah, yes. I was just about to report to you.
Regarding the major earthquake in Turkey, we used all available channels, repeatedly reviewed and verified the events, and conducted a thorough internal search, but..."
"How is it?"
"Nothing. There's no evidence that the earthquake was man-made, and we can't find any trace of connection to Fang Huan."
Hearing this result, Anthony wasn't disappointed at all; instead, he laughed heartily.
Yes, that's more like it.
This is the Fang Huan he serves!
To be honest, if they had found any clues, he would have been disappointed.
No matter what earth-shattering event it was, whether it was an accident or a tragedy...
Fang Huan leaves no trace!
This time, it's the same!
This is the unfathomable behemoth that Anthony Watson is determined to dedicate the rest of his life to!
"Boss, could this... really just be a coincidence?"
"No," Anthony's eyes were as deep as an abyss,
"In Fang Huan's dictionary, there is no such word as 'coincidence'."
Only a 'strategy' disguised as a coincidence!
The fact that we can't find it only means that our capabilities are far from sufficient to touch its core!
"Wildfire," which has assembled the world's top intelligence talent, can't even figure out its own boss's background.
Isn't this a chilling kind of glory?
What incredible luck to stand on the same side as such a being!
"Then... do you think headquarters will use natural disasters to orchestrate its next move?
This time we were lucky enough to leave no trace, but next time, it's hard to say."
"Heh, if they were the kind of incompetent fools who hesitated and looked back, they wouldn't have gotten this far."
Anthony's gaze drifted into the distance, as if he could already see the bloodshed to come.
"So, just wait and see.
Let's see what shocking, insane act Fang Huan, this lurking beast, will pull this time!"
After the Turkish earthquake, Fang Huan remained outwardly silent for a long time.
Only in the shadows, through the sharp blade of "Wildfire," did he quietly carry out various schemes.
Anthony knew this was merely the calm before the storm.
Because that beast named "Fang Huan" would never be content with remaining silent for long!
