Chapter 678: Chapter 645: FBI, open the door!
This Easter egg was originally prepared by Lincoln for the Russian players.
But as soon as the game started, these guys drove tanks straight to the airport, even killing Poland on the way, without even bothering to look at the supplies other than weapons.
So all the food and cooking utensils were left behind.
The Italian players didn’t care about these things the first time they passed by either.
It wasn’t until they got “shaken” by the nuclear bomb and came back for the second time, that they finally picked up these things and started cooking.
That’s when they discovered the Easter egg...
Even so, the player didn’t dwell on it, and simply skewered the potatoes on a knife and started roasting them over the fire.
He planned to taste the cherry blossom-flavored roasted potatoes.

By now, in [Peak War], whether it’s the “Russian-German Expedition” or the “Nuclear Explosion,” they all occurred in the western part of the map, so the director’s lens was basically focused on this place.
But in fact, the eastern half of the map was also quite lively.
The America Players, knowing that their internet conditions were the worst, chose the mountainous area in the bottom-right corner of the map, which is the southeastern corner of the battlefield, as their position.
This was an utterly peripheral place, with an embarrassingly [3-star] resource level, so much so that no one even tried to compete with them for it.
After the start of the game, they were actively building defensive structures, mainly landmines, pitfalls, and breastworks.
At the same time, they didn’t forget to send nearly a quarter of their players to scout the surroundings while collecting supplies as much as possible.
In reality, the always-confident America Players became exceptionally cautious, avoiding others and doing their best to avoid conflict in this [Peak War].
But even so, they were still blocked by someone—
Iraq and Syria had secretly formed an alliance before the game.
This was not as simple as casually saying it – as soon as they entered the game and got their equipment ready, they quickly regrouped and rushed straight to the American position without a second’s delay!
During the war, the Middle East, which was located between Europe and Asia, was thrown into chaos by America, and their countries were still suffering from the aftermath of the war.
In reality, they had no way to deal with America.
But in the virtual world?
Sorry, the roles of strength and weakness — reversed!
Syria and Iraq combined have fewer people than America, that’s true.
But when it comes to the “virtual world population,” both countries outdo America, where Mirage is banned!
Not to mention the difference in internet speed.
There’s a saying in astrophysics: “Within the light cone, there is fate.”
The virtual game version would be: “Within the internet speed, there is fate!”
What can you do to compete with me at 180ms when you have a delay of 1800ms!
And so, Eika’s home address was exposed.
He hadn’t thought it was a problem before.
But this time, he realized—
“Support at point 3, send two squads, Louis! DeVille! Take your squads up there!”
“Point 18 is safe enough, the mobile team can withdraw, go support point 7!”
...
Standing at a high vantage point overlooking the battlefield by taking advantage of the altitude difference in the mountains, passionately commanding the fight, Eika suddenly saw an unprecedentedly huge font in front of him, completely filling his entire field of view—
[Warning! Unrecorded person entered the house!]
[Please log off immediately!]
[Please log off immediately!]
Eika was seeing this situation for the first time, and his brain went blank, even forgetting how to log off.
The next moment, the Mirage entered a special security state, directly kicking him offline.
The moment he opened his eyes, he saw three fully armed police officers bursting through his bedroom door, nervously pointing their guns at him and shouting something.
Eika’s brain was still blank, everything was happening too abruptly for his mind to process.
Fortunately, upon seeing the uniforms and guns, he instinctively raised his hands without making any rash moves.
Only afterward did the shouting of the others finally reach his ears—
“FBI!”
“Hands on your head!”
“Raise your hands!”
“Get down!”
“Kneel!”
“Don’t move!”
...
These complex, loud, and contradictory commands would probably leave a Daxia person dumbfounded, unsure of what to do.
But for Eika, it was simple—
He quickly knelt on both knees, completely dropped to the ground, and finally put his hands on his head, not moving at all.
Only then did two FBI agents rush over, using all their strength to pin Eika down on the floor and cuff him with handcuffs.
The standing FBI agent finally announced: “You are suspected of possessing a large number of explosives, contacting foreign terrorist organizations, and engaging in terrorist activities! We need your cooperation in the investigation! Come with us!”
“Huh?”
On the floor, utterly confused, Eika was dumbfounded by the accusation!
