2219, October 31, evening.

Crystal County, Christo City, "Tea Banquet" headquarters.

It's still the bright conference room, it's still the round, stone conference table.

Today, Muhammad (Longjing) is already in the main seat, but most of the other seats are empty.

In the past few months, due to the tension of the war, many members of the tea banquet have been killed in some operations, like Yevgeny; In addition, in response to the "Resistance Meeting" in Atlantic City tomorrow, several members of the Tea Party led members from the four major organizations of FCPS, EAS, supervisors, and EF to Star County.

In this way, the members of the tea banquet who remained in the headquarters of Crystal County, including Muhammad himself, were only seven or eight.

However, even if there are only two or three people left, this will still be open......

To this day, there are basically two kinds of people left in the federal government: one is that they have not done too many bad things, so they are already colluding with the resistance groups to seek a way out; There is also a lot of blood debts on the hands, full of evil, once the federation collapses, whether it falls into the hands of the rebels or the common people, there is absolutely no way to live.

These two kinds of people are naturally divided into doves and hawks.

The former, which advocates "an end to the war and negotiations on the preservation of the Union's autonomy in Europe." Of course, this set of rhetoric, even if they themselves understand that it is wishful thinking, it is impossible for the rebels to agree to it; The reason why they hold this view is only to take a good stand politically, so that they can suffer less after the defeat.

And the latter will be stubbornly resisted to the end; These people account for more than 80 per cent...... For them, they will either continue to act as the ruling class, or they will be devoured alive and will never recover, with no median, no room for circuitry, and no so-called retreat.

Such an internal environment, combined with external pressure from the battlefield, made the original political structure of the Federation useless.

The power of the "Cabinet Ten" has been lost in the past few months, the situation and position of most civilian officials have become very delicate, and the power of the military and various special combat services has exploded in times of war.

Normally, this tilt of power is not a good thing, but it also happens in time......

In times of peace, what people need is a perfect system, because maintaining social stability requires the efforts of countless people in all aspects, and all these people who share power within the system need to be supervised by the system itself; You can't put your hopes in the rule of man – that's testing human nature, that's self-deception.

But during the war years, what people needed was heroes, outstanding people who could stand up and break the rules and regulations that were no longer useful and lead people to victory.

Therefore, this change of power in the federation can be regarded as an inevitability.

The end result was that the "Tea Banquet" had to surface as a co-ordinator to command all the executive agencies with military capabilities and superpowers to deal with the various situations in wartime.

Thus, the "dragon well", or Muhammad, became the most powerful person in the entire federation during this period. Even the "Guardian Officers", most of them obeyed his commands.

That's why the Confederation can hold at least "half of Europe......

…………

"You're all there, aren't you?" After the eighth man had taken his seat, Muhammad said.

"Yes." "Mao Feng", who was sitting next to him, immediately responded.

Today's Mao Feng, whose public position is Muhammad's personal assistant and bodyguard, is long gone as a grassroots soldier lurking as before.

"Well......" Muhammad nodded, "then, let's get started, today's topic is ......"

Whew——

Before he could finish his opening remarks, he was interrupted by the sound of the electronic door opening in the conference room.

At this moment, the eight people around the round table turned their heads and looked at the door.

In less than five seconds, everyone's faces changed, because they all recognized the two people at the door: one was the current head of the Reverse Cross, and the other was the first president of the Federation and the founder of the "Tea Banquet", Krauser Wittstock.

After a breath of "hum...... Muhammad put away his look of surprise and turned to a sneer, "What a rare guest." ”

He didn't ask how he found this place or how he got here, because he knew that those questions didn't matter at the moment.

After greeting him, Muhammad immediately changed his words, looked at Zi Linyan and said, "It's just ...... I don't understand one thing. He paused and glanced at Krause, "Zilin, if you want to come, you'll come, what are you bringing a clone for?" Scold...... Just to give us a scare? ”

As soon as he said this, the other seven people around the round table suddenly appeared, and it seemed that the explanation of "clones" had indeed convinced them and calmed them down.

"Ke, Long, man......" Krauser repeated the three words word by word, and at the same time, walked slowly around the table towards Muhammad.

As he approached, Mao Feng stood up and blocked in front of him.

"I advise you not to look for death." Mao Feng glared angrily at the approaching Krause, and said threateningly.

"Sit down, young man." Krauser was not angry, not only was he not angry, but he patted the other party's shoulder very gently, and said this in an old man's tone.

The weird thing is that Mao Feng really sat down......

When he sat down, his face was already pale, and a cold sweat was pouring down.

Others didn't react to what was going on for a while, only the parties themselves knew: when Krauser patted Mao Feng just now, he showed his energy level a little, and this "tip of the iceberg" had already defeated Mao Feng's entire knowledge of things such as the level and energy of the ability person in the past.

"Young people, you must know how to be humble and reverent, and understand that there are mountains beyond the mountains." When Krauser said this, his hand was still lightly placed on Mao Feng's shoulder, and he said in a teaching-like tone, "Don't stand up just because you're a little stronger than ordinary people...... Just speak loudly......" He paused for half a second, then continued, "You know, I have seen several people of your level of ability who have been killed by one move, and there are also people who have been shot in the head...... In the future, keep a low profile, be a good person, and you will be able to develop a little in the future. ”

At this point, Krauser gently took his hand away from Mao Feng's shoulder.

And the moment his hand left his shoulder, Mao Feng suddenly began to gasp like a drowning person poking his head out of the water.

Several changes in just one minute made all the people sitting at the table shake more strongly than before, because they all understood that the clone should not be able to copy the "ability" of the original body, even if the cloned body was a mutant, but the "Krause" in front of him undoubtedly used a certain ability on Mao Feng just now, and made Mao Feng, a fierce master, so frightened that he didn't even dare to stand up again.

"As for you......" Two seconds later, Krauser came to Muhammad's side, looked at the latter with a condescending, cold look with a hint of disgust, and said something that he would never forget, "Before I communicate further with you......" As he spoke, he glanced down at the seat of the tea banquet occupied by Muhammad...... Please get out of my seat and get out of the way. ”
