"Like a hostile takeover?" I asked, more confused than ever.  The only base worth taking over in this country was the City A Safe Zone that was run by Zhao Jun Jie, and even then, it was really not worth it.

"Exactly," said Wang Chao with a nod.

"But why?" I was not sure what was going on in his head. Didn't he understand what it meant to take over a base?

"Because it will be useful for us in the future," he repeated as if that was the be-all, end-all. Mind you, I guess it was.

"Do what you want, but I will have nothing to do with it, and he still needs to die," I sighed. I really was too nice to them, I guess.



Wang Chao nodded in agreement and turned to look at the other man. Deng Jun Hie swallowed as he backed away from Wang Chao and into a wall.  Wang Chao continued to advance, neither speeding up nor slowing down, his gaze unwavering.

All of a sudden, Deng Jun Hie dropped to his knees and clutched his head between his hands. He started out whimpering before changing to a blood-curdling scream as blood started to come out of his eyes, ears, and mouth.

I raised my eyebrow impressed. I guess Wang Chao was no longer handling the man with kid gloves.

Collapsing to the floor the Major General curled up in the fetal position as blood continued to pour out of the orifices on his face. No longer able to scream due to the amount of red liquid coming out of his mouth and down into his lungs, I watched as the blood started to bubble up and foam as he desperately tried to take a breath. His body started to convulse, causing him to resemble a fish on dry land rather than a dignified member of the Country K military force.

I watched as the twitching slowed down and eventually stopped, leaving the once confident Deng Jun Hie nothing more than a puddle of blood, flesh, and bones on the floor.  "I can only assume that you got what we needed before that happened," I half asked, half stated as I pointed to the corpse.  Can't say that I had ever seen a spirit user do that before.

Wang Chao nodded before walking over to me. "I'm sorry," he said as he grabbed the back of my head and brought my forehead to his own. "I didn't realize," he continued before placing a gentle kiss in the middle of my forehead before pulling back.

Liu Yu Zeng flicked his wrist and a strand of snake-like black mist flowed out of him and rushed over to the carcass.  Completely engulfing it, the body quickly disintegrated until there was nothing left but a deoxygenated puddle of blood on the floor. "What's the plan?" he asked as he turned around and looked at me. The typical smirk was back on his face.

"Well, apparently the voices in my head have told me that I am being much too nice, too considerate," I started just as Liu Wei walked over to me. Placing a kiss on top of my head, he looked me in the eyes.  "You don't have to do what they say. You do whatever you want to do and we will support you."I think you should take a look at

"They are also saying that I need to get laid," I said with a smirk as I looked up at the man from where I was cuddled in Chen Zi Han's lap.

"I think you should listen to them," replied Liu Wei completely changing his tone with a nod of his head.

"I volunteer as tribute!" shouted Liu Yu Zeng raising his hand and frantically waving it around.  I couldn't help but laugh and shake my head. "I'll take it under advisement once I get things settled."

"How are you wanting to do that?" asked Liu Wei as he adjusted his glasses.

"Well, I thought that I would raid, pillage, plunder, and otherwise pilfer my weaselly black heart out," I said quoting my favorite pirate. In this case, though, I really thought it applied.

"And what about the people here?" asked Wang Chao. I just looked at the man in front of me. "I will not kill them, but I will not save them either. What they do from here on out is their own prerogative."

The four men nodded in agreement. It would take too much time and energy to hunt down and eliminate every single person in this base, and then I run into the issue of leaving some alive to come back for revenge later. This might be a much slower death, but at least I couldn't be directly implicated in it.

"Now, let's go hunt down some treasure, shall we?" I asked as I stood up. The boyos grunted in agreement and followed after me. With a quick word to their men to have them leave the base and meet them on the road a few kilometers down from here, the five of us followed the images in Deng Jun Hie's head to grab all the goodies.

Ok, so I was taking a shot in the dark that this base would have anything interesting in it. At most, I was hoping for a lot of supplies, which we found. I took everything available and put them into my space so no one around could see us walking around with things that we weren't supposed to have.

Not like there was anyone really paying attention to us as it was. The area designated as the hospital had a line going out the door so I could only assume that Zhao Jia Li was busy. Or maybe there was such a long line because she wasn't. Either way, she wasn't in my face so I was happy. But the average inhabitant of this base was not looking at us at all.

Wang Chao led us down a long, twisting road. The crowd became smaller and smaller as we continued walking away from the busy center of the Sanctuary. We had been walking for at least 30 minutes when we finally came to a brick wall. Narrowing my eyes at Wang Chao I wondered exactly what we were doing here.
