March 29, 2019, Morning.

In a mansion in Crystal County.

Every morning, Muhammad would sit in his spacious living room and have a hot breakfast with a pot of freshly brewed dragon wells, and today is no exception.

Because he likes to listen to some music at breakfast, he has a stereo on the wall across his table — one that's so expensive that you'll be tempted to double-check two or three times after hearing the price.

As it was said in a movie: "If you close your eyes when you stand in front of a device like this, you think it's really someone playing or singing in front of you." ”

Today, Muhammad plays Bach's Suite No. 1 in G major for a cappella cello, one of his favorites.

This...... It was a sign that he was in a good mood.

With the flow of music, he even closed his eyes several times, raised the chopsticks in his hand and waved them gently, showing a look of intoxication.

However, at this moment, at the junction of Eurasia, there are countless living beings, dancing in the hell of blood and fire.

A tragedy that would later become known as the "Iron Curtain" was staged on the morning of this day.

Since the "Destruction of the Heavens" event more than 100 years ago, mankind has not experienced war damage of this magnitude for more than a century; For the vast majority of people living in this era, they would never have imagined that "one day, a flash of light and a scorching wave of air suddenly appeared, taking your life and everything around you".

Therefore, when this kind of hurt befalls without warning, they will be extremely shocked, helpless, grieved, and angry......

But at the time, no one knew who was responsible for the massive and indiscriminate bombing campaign against several counties; Under the propaganda offensive that the Federation had prepared, the populace was almost universally convinced that it was an atrocity committed by the rebels.

Tick – tick –

While Muhammad was enjoying music, food, and "victory," the tablet he had placed on his desk suddenly rang.

Hearing the sound, he glanced at the screen and found that an unregistered unknown number had sent him a request for video communication, and after a little hesitation, he still set up the tablet and clicked the "connect" button.

"You know me, right?" Zilin didn't talk to the other party politely, and as soon as the picture came out, he asked bluntly.

"Of course I do, you are Zilin......" Muhammad replied in his unusually hoarse voice and calm tone, "Now you are talking against the cross, right?" ”

Zilin didn't answer this question, but asked rhetorically: "Are you talking about the tea banquet now?" ”

Muhammad understood what he meant: "You should know that tea banquets have always been presided over by members codenamed 'Longjing'. ”

Zilin shrugged: "The reverse cross has never really talked about people, and you should know this." ”

"Well...... "Muhammad sneered, "heh, then you don't seem qualified to talk to me." As he spoke, he picked up the chopsticks he had just put down again, and shook them on the table, ready to continue eating.

"If I could get a dollar every time I hear the word 'qualifying' come out of the mouth of a shitty person like you, I'd be a millionaire by now." Zilin Road.

"Watch your words, young man." Muhammad was not angry when he was scolded, but just leisurely put the food in his mouth and sighed with a satisfied expression for a few seconds.

"The language I'm using is just describing the obvious, and there's nothing wrong with that." Zilin smiled and continued, "You sit there like a human, eating a Chinese breakfast, drinking fine tea, but playing music that is incompatible with it to be elegant, this is called nondescript; If your hand holding the chopsticks is too far forward and you don't even cross the middle line, this is called poverty; When you align your chopsticks, you turn the table, which is called vulgarity; When you eat, you like to put it in your mouth for a few seconds, which is called poor sour; If you have committed so many taboos of traditional rules and regulations without knowing it, this is called ignorance; If you get the name of 'Longjing' and take it for granted that you are 'in charge', this is called arrogance; if you make a little bit of a thief shouting and catching a thief, you think that it is exquisite and that it has been accomplished, this is called stupidity; If you don't show the respect and reverence you deserve when you talk to Uncle Ben, who is a member of the Countercross, it's called death......

"To sum up, you, a poor, sour-looking, vulgar, ignorant, arrogant, and nondescript fool, actually think that I still need the so-called 'qualifications' to talk to you, which is called not to give face...... That is, cheap. ”

When Zilin said this, Muhammad's whole body froze, and his face became very unsightly.

Muhammad had never been sprayed like this in his life, and the most angry thing was that he couldn't find a point to refute.

"Now listen, I'm here to contact you today, just to tell you two things." Zilin didn't wait for him to answer, so he continued, "First, don't think that what you did was to end the troubled times, on the contrary...... That was just the first act of the drama. ”

He paused, and then continued: "Second......" I don't know what I thought, Zilin suddenly showed a malicious smile, "Do you think the person who made this piece at this moment is Bach who composed it?" Or the musician who plays it? ”

"What do you mean?" Muhammad did not respond directly to this question, which sounded like a trap.

"That's what I mean...... If 'Tea Banquet' is a piece of music, I want you to play it more carefully. Zilin smiled, "So when Bach comes to slap you, you can at least justify yourself with 'did your best'." ”

Muhammad forced his gaze for a few seconds, but he really didn't figure out the other party's extraneous sound, so he replied with four words: "I don't know what to say." ”

"You don't have to understand my words right now, if you do, it will make things a lot less fun." Zilin continued, "Anyway, these are the two things I want to tell you...... I hope you will cheer up and don't rush to celebrate the 'victory' that only exists in your own imagination, because the game between the reverse cross and the tea feast and the federation is ...... This is just the beginning. ”
