She also saw a cannonball with the Stark Industries logo on it, lying quietly in the rubble, without exploding.
Then, a voice slowly sounded from the depths of her consciousness.
"You hate Stark because you think it was the weapon we made that killed your parents. But have you ever thought about who really pulled the trigger? Is the blacksmith who made the kitchen knife guilty, or is the madman who used the kitchen knife guilty? Our parents were killed by Hydra's killer. They brainwashed that guy, but I chose to kill him and destroy Hydra."
"We never deny the mistakes Stark Industries made, but Tony has already made amends with his actions. And you, on the other hand, chose to be used as a tool by a true executioner like Hydra, directing your hatred at the wrong people. I don't deny that we were the manufacturer of the weapons. You can seek revenge anytime you want, and I won't stop you."
"Wake up, kid. Don't let hatred blind you anymore."
"Ah!!!"
With a scream of pain, Wanda suddenly broke free from the spiritual world.
Her body fell from mid-air like a kite with a broken string.
The huge flood of memories and emotional impact was an unbearable burden for he r already fragile spirit.
Just as she was about to fall to the ground, a dark figure appeared below her and caught her steadily in his arms.
"I told you not to play with fire."
Henry held Wanda, who had passed out due to mental exhaustion, and shook his he ad helplessly.
He raised his head and looked into Wanda's eyes. In her eyes, there was only confusion and pain at this moment.
On the other side, Tony finally got rid of the energy interference. He looked at the Laboratory that had returned to calm, and his brother, who was hugging the girl who had just wanted to kill him. The corners of his mouth under the Armor mask twitched uncontrollably.
"Fuck!" He couldn't help but roar in the communication channel.
"Henry Stark! You damn bastard! I'm working so hard to help you take the damage, and you're actually picking up girls in the back?! Do you have any team spirit left?!"
Hearing this, Henry gave him a middle finger without even turning his head.
"Shut up, Tony," he said flatly.
"I'm doing post-war psychological counselling, a very professional and technical job. A crude person like you who only knows how to solve problems with money won't understand."
Tony: ???
Are you sure this isn't my line?!
Henry no longer hesitated, holding Wanda and turning to look at another corner of the laboratory.
"Okay, now..." His eyes turned cold again.
"It's time to clean up the last of the mess."
Tony flew over, cursing, and landed beside Henry. The visor of his Armor retracted, revealing a face filled with dissatisfaction.
"Post-war counselling? You call that counselling?" Tony looked up and down at the pale, unconscious girl in Henry's arms, then rolled his eyes.
"Why does it look more like you're taking advantage of them? I have to remind you, Henry, that according to the Geneva Convention, making... uh, inappropriate contact with enemy personnel who are incapacitated is a serious violation of the laws of war."
"First," Henry carefully adjusted his posture to make Wanda lie more comfortably in his arms, then he raised his head and looked at Tony with the eyes of a retard.
"She's not an enemy agent now, at most she's a victim. And secondly, when did you start caring about the Geneva Convention? Weren't you just a few minutes ago yelling about tearing everyone's heads off? I'm guessing the title page of that convention doesn't say it's legal to do that."
Tony was speechless for a moment.
He opened his mouth and found himself speechless.
"That's tactical deterrence! It's to mentally undermine the enemy's will to resist! Do you understand?" he argued forcibly.
"Besides, I was just talking! Did you see me do it? I'm a civilized person! Unlike you, who kicks people in the head at every turn. You're rude, barbaric, and have no sense of art!"
"Yes, yes, you are most civilized." Henry nodded perfunctorily.
Then he held Wanda in his arms and walked towards Baron Strucker, who had been thrown into the corner like a puddle of mud, his life or death unknown.
"So, you civilized person, what are you going to do with this pile of garbage now?"
Strucker looked miserable at the moment.
Henry threw him casually, and he hit the wall. He didn't know how many bones in his body were broken. There was blood foam at the corners of his mouth. He was breathing in more than out. His monocle was broken into several pieces, making him look like a cockroach that had been stepped on.
Tony looked at his miserable state, and the nameless anger in his heart finally subsided a little.
He folded his arms across his chest, looking down at Stark with a wicked smile on his face.
"Oh, look, look, our noble Baron." Tony's tone was sarcastic.
"You don't look like you, a high-ranking Hydra official. Didn't you say you would grant me eternal life? Why do you look like you're about to meet the Red Skull?"
Strucker struggled to open his eyes, looking at the two demon-like Stark brothers in front of him, his cloudy eyes filled with resentment and fear.
"You...you will regret it..." he said intermittently.
"The Hydra... is inexhaustible... If you chop off one head... two more will grow..."
"Oh, come on, stop reciting your MLM slogans. I'm almost sick of them." Henry interrupted him impatiently and kicked Stark's leg with his toes.
"Your rhetoric is just like those cockroaches that can never be killed. It is nothing but disgusting."
"We have plenty of time to play with you guys." Tony took over the conversation, squatting down and looking at Stark at eye level, his eyes filled with cold indifference.
"However, before I send you off to meet your old friends, I have a few small questions for you."
He extended his index finger, and a faint arc of electricity lit up on the Armor's finger, gently tapping it on Strucker's forehead.
"Tell me, what exactly are you researching in this base? Besides these two miracles, how many other enhanced humans have you created? How many other shady laboratories like this do you have around the world?"
"...l...won't say anything..." Strucker gritted his teeth and let out a hoarse laugh from his throat.
"You...don't even think about getting any information from me... Long live Hydra!"
"He has guts." Henry nodded and commented seriously.
"I'm beginning to admire you a little. But you know what? When it comes to tough situations, I usually have two ways of dealing with them."
He paused, then slowly extended two fingers.
"First, break it up, grind it into powder, and feed it to the dogs. Second..."
The corners of his mouth curled up in a cruel arc.
"Pull it out section by section, make it into a work of art, hang it on the wall, and remind those who come after me what it means to overestimate one's own abilities."
"Which method do you think is more suitable for you?"
Strucker's pupils suddenly contracted, and the fear that penetrated deep into his bones finally crushed his so-called faith.
"You...you can't..."
"We can," Tony said calmly.
