Chapter 183: Where It Started

*BAM*

He pushed the ring into Wenmu's mouth and forced it deeper into his neck. But, of course, it was humanly impossible to swallow it.

*SPLASH*

The ring broke through his windpipe and edged out of his throat, ripping it apart in a bloody sight. Xu Wenwu cried in pain, but he couldn't even make a sound at this point.

Hector was brutal at the time, showcasing his other side that Diana had not often seen before. She had noticed that he was a kind, happy man at most times, but he was inhumanely brutal at other times, reminding her he had hell in his official title.

Hector had no special emotions on his face and looked uncaring, as if Xu Wenwu was an insect one mistakenly stepped on. "Just to be sure, I will destroy your soul as well,"

He used the soul stone and illuminated the yellow light on the mutilated man, annihilating his soul before he could pass on to the next plane. Now, only a few men were left alive, and these will be arrested for various reasons, never to see the light of the day again.

"Why are you so brutal sometimes? Why kill on such a scale?" Diana abruptly asked him.

"A good enemy is a dead enemy, Diana. If I feel someone might rise to become my enemy in the future, I will deal with them before that happens. I will not tolerate any lapse in reforming Earth," he replied.

After a short silence, Diana looked him in the eye, "Am I—a possible enemy?"

*Sigh* "I will be honest with you. My answer is I don't know. I hope you don't become my enemy. I really like you as a person, and Moony thinks of you as his mom– most favorite person after me." He clarified. But seeing the gore around, he knew it was not the best place to talk. So he used power stone to send energy blasts at the bodies, turning them into ashes.

Diana sighed and interrogated, "You are so kind, so loving at all times. Then why this sudden outburst of emotions?"

"Let's talk about this later. I need to sweep clean the base first. There may be trapped people inside there." He changed the topic and proceeded toward the building.

"SEE! This is what I was talking about. Now you're suddenly compassionate." She exclaimed and followed behind.

As they left, Hector had contacted the SHIELD to send their teams to thoroughly gather all the evidence about the US and other government's involvement. But more surprises were in line for Hector.

...

Inside the building, Hector found that it wasn't enormous. It only had a basement for cars and some weapons; everything else resembled more a house than a criminal base. But Hector did find the server room, and from there, he learned the location of each Ten Rings' base in the world. They had more than five bases on each continent. All except the United States, for some reason.

Then he found out about their dealings. They worked for nearly every government in the world at some point. Hector was disappointed, "See this, I've lived two lives, and I've seen this madness in each. I've learned this lesson early, always expect the worst from people you expect the least harm. The governments are always thumping chests about doing something good, yet here we have this.

"Let's go; we will destroy each of these bases first. Then I will answer your questions of why do I persist in killing each and every one of these rotten fishes?"

Sounding dangerous and radiating an angry aura, he created a portal for himself. He rarely used his teleporting abilities. These instances were usually in times of need or, like now, anger.

"Hold my hand," he extended his arm to her.

Diana didn't think for a second before grabbing it. After all, it wasn't as if she was seeing something new. She just wanted answers now. She had told Hector everything about her past life, yet she knew nothing about him.

*WOOSH*

...

He teleported around the world and dropped energy blasts from Power Stone on all bases. Asia, Europe, Australia, South America, or Africa. He left nothing behind.

This time, Diana didn't even try to stop him from killing. She never knew why he killed a few and left others. But she at least expected some answers later that day.

After hours of strenuous work, they reached their last target base, which was inside North-eastern Africa.

This was a research facility made underground. The location was Bir Tawil, the unclaimed land between Egypt and Sudan. It was the only piece of habitable land on Earth that any government did not claim.

"This is a strange place to make a base," Diana muttered.

"I'd say it's perfect. No country seems to be interested in this place. But we do know there is something down here. Let me look around," He walked around the land, sensing something.

As they walked, the sky started to turn darker. The stars looked exceptionally beautiful in the sky, not covered by smog. But they don't have the luxury of gazing at it for now.

"GOT IT!" he exclaimed suddenly and punched the ground. The sand started to seep into some cracks that appeared out of nowhere. In no time, they found they were standing on a cemented ceiling.

*BOOM*

He punched it again and made a hole. "Follow me,"

Diana jumped behind him. But as soon as she landed inside, she found Hector standing still in one position, looking at something. So she stepped aside and also looked, prompting her to appear the same as Hector.

The scene was appalling to their stomachs. There were rows and rows of cylinders made of glass. They were full of transparent green liquid, and inside them were naked bodies. From adult males and females to children as small as a newborn baby.

"W-What is this?" she muttered weakly.

He silently shook his head, "This is a biological lab. And they were probably trying to replicate the super-soldier serum. All of them are—dead!"

She gloomily looked around. There were at least a thousand of these cylinders just in her view. "Why are they...?"

"I don't know. I don't want to know. Look around if there is anyone left alive." He said and left her.

Diana walked in another direction and searched the lab. But other than some cobwebs and rotten furniture, she found nothing. Nevertheless, she tried to be as attentive as possible and looked into walls for hidden compartments by turning intangible.

After an hour of searching all the rooms and corners, she got out of the secret lab. Hector was already outside, sitting on the sand and watching the sky alone. She also sat beside him, a bit closer. "You okay?"

He shrugged, "You think the scenes inside will shock me? Sure, they might for a second, but in space, I've destroyed whole flagships at once sometimes. That alone kills thousands together. And to be honest, what's here is incomparable to the holocaust and the treatment of Moranian breeding slaves. I was just watching the sky,"

"Well, I'm taken aback. Seeing this, what you did with those meant doesn't seem immoral," she said.

Hector chuckled, "See, this is how easy it is to manipulate someone's emotions. I'm surprised I'm even as sane as I am right now,"

Diana nodded in agreement. Indeed, she was quick to change her mind just because she saw some dead bodies. "You're right. Well, are you going to tell me now about yourself?"

"Sure, but it might bore you a bit since it's regarding my past life." He started.

Diana patted his shoulder, "Come on, we have the whole night. And I truly want to understand you. Understand why you kill so—casually."

He shook his head, "I don't kill casually, Diana. I'm just a realist who believes that humans can not change so easily. I believe in second chances, but only for limited actions.

"Anyway, my fall to madness started in Vietnam on 16 March 1968, in my past life. I was Major Hector King, commanding officer of the Company C of the 1st Battalion, 20th Infantry Regiment. We had a pretty simple mission. We were to fight the Vietcong Local Force 48th Battalion, which was one of the Vietcong's most successful units... but things went south. Actually, that's an understatement. It went hellishly bad..."
