Kazinov's voice was not loud, but it was clear enough. He was slick in his eloquence. He had been hiding in the social scene since he was a child. Tony among the women could make him more than ten streets. But at this moment, facing the world like a miracle around him, Tony felt that his tongue had grown up and could not say a word.

He opened his mouth awkwardly for a long time, not knowing what he could say, and then he felt the paleness of his words in front of the facts.

They have penetrated the base of the Communist League, surrounded by a world beyond imagination. Soft grass is spread under their feet, flowers and trees are entangled by them. The fresh fragrance of soil, flowers and plants in the air makes people relax. This place does not look like the center of the city, but rather like nature closest to humanity.

Only by seeing the technological products that are integrated with plants, like art, and magical buildings that blend in the surrounding environment, can we realize that this is a city from the future.

"We are on the same path. Although you are ahead, this does not mean that you can laugh at us... We just haven't gotten there yet!" Captain America looked at Kadinov without any weakness: "You have only had more time."

"Well said!" Kadinov smiled, and he stretched out his hand and invited, "Then join us!"

"Integrate into this glorious era as a human being, forget all the rules you established in that era, accept this great and glorious era, and enjoy the true freedom of mankind. Your identity, your status, all the imprints of your past will lose most of their meaning, leaving only the most core things."

"Wisdom, courage, noble qualities, persistent beliefs and firm will."

"You will have nothing except that..." Kadinov looked at Captain America's eyes as if asking him, 'Do you dare?'.

"The people have the right to choose freely. Since I have chosen to stand with them, I will defend to the end. My force field is always firm, and my shield will always fight to protect them. Anyone who violates their choice, whether it is a criminal, an alien invader or others. Even our government, I will fight him to the end."

"It's obvious that it's impossible for you to abandon Stark Industry in a few words." Tony said seriously: "Only by being with my company, I'm complete. It's not about money, power or anything else... It's part of me, my ideal, and it's as close to me as this steel."

"I say nothing is not to lose everything, but to have everything." Kadinov shook his head and said, "Wealth, material things, everything you can imagine, everything you can have, possess as much as you can. Because it is infinite, because it is meaningless."

"Apart from your nature and things like human beings, everything else will be like air, allowing you to possess, but meaningless. Try to think about it, you are like in a small space that is about to suffocate. For any little oxygen, you greedily possess that little resource. Use all shameless, despicable, and cruel means to possess it."

Pulling the essence of the problem nakedly, Kadinov seemed to pull all the Avengers' thoughts, those little secrets in the dark, complex, dusty, not-so-heroic things, from the depths of thoughts and reveal them from the skin of morality. It made Captain America and Tony feel irritable, and became angry at Kadinov's instinct.

The heroes of the Avengers quickly got rid of this feeling. They knew it was not a good sign, but the feeling of being forced to face something they didn't want to face still made them embarrassed.

Kadinov's language, like a blade, cut open the surface of the prosperous era on earth that made Avengers proud, revealing the paleness and void behind it.

"Now we are going to open the window! The despicable and shameless things you insist on are meaningless. What once allowed you to survive and gave you status is now just a proof of your despicableness. Everything you once possessed by greed..." Kadinov made a gesture of being blown away by the wind.

"If that despicable possession is your position, and if the greed that allows you to survive is your faith, then I can tell you that the darkness is over and the dawn is coming, and if you persist...then I can only tell you..."

"Your position is meaningless, your faith is not worth mentioning!"

"Enough!" Captain America interrupted him angrily.

"You are not qualified to talk about my faith. You are too far away from it, I am too close to it. I have been sleeping since World War II, but to this day I can still see it. The spirit is shining. It has shined for a century, created an era, and it will inevitably continue to exist. I will use my life to guard and practice it."

Captain America raised his shield and said with the firmest attitude: "I swear to fight for freedom!"

Tony also put his hand on Captain America's shield and said sincerely: "This time I fully agree with you. I swear to fight for America and for the freedom of mankind!"

"For the spirit of freedom of mankind!" Hulk, not now, should be Dr. Bruce, also put his huge right hand on the back of Stark's hand, and said solemnly.

The three of them looked at each other, their eyes were very firm and they all had the determination to do everything.

"Add me, my friends on earth!" Thor laughed and put his right fist on: "Asgard is willing to fight for freedom." Loki hesitated for a moment and tried to put his hand on, but was glared by several people.

He raised his palms innocently, signaled that he had no malice, and then slowly stepped down to stand next to Kadinov. "I am willing to fight for freedom, too... but I will always stand on the side of victory."

Hawkeye added his hand silently, and only the Black Widow was left among the Avengers. Everyone looked at her together, especially Bruce. The eyes were full of expectations when they looked at her, but the Black Widow was silent and scared them.

"Natasha! We're waiting for you!" Bruce said anxiously.

But the Black Widow was unmoved.

Everyone had a bad premonition in their hearts, and Tony tried to make a joke: "Putting hands with three men makes me feel twisted. Come on, Natalie, I can't wait!" But the Black Widow still maintained a confusing silence, and a strange atmosphere suddenly spread between them.

Although she didn't say anything, silence had already explained her choice.

"Sorry!" Black Widow waved her hand.

"Why?" Bruce asked desperately.

“America is your country…”

"But you are with us, we are a family, a partner... You are a real hero, and we know how much you have paid for this country!" Bruce said excitedly.

"But that's because my country perished!" Black Widow shouted.

"My soul has no support, it wanders around casually, and without it, everything is meaningless. I feel disgusted with the monster standing up on the body of my motherland, so I can only choose to be myself!"

"It's not like this..." Bruce was almost losing his mind. He looked at the woman opposite him in despair: "You love us, and there is a real bond between you and me..."

"Sorry!" Black Widow slowly stepped back and stood with Katinov. She suppressed her emotions, but her voice was already sobbing.

A sorry. It has a strong nasal sound.

"But I have faith!" Black Widow said this sentence very lightly. If it weren't for the presence of anyone, no one would have heard it.

This sentence made Bruce feel as if he was struck by lightning, and Tony and Captain America also showed shocked expressions. Their life's shock was not as shocked as this moment, and everyone's faces were incredible expressions.

"I saw a building with a narrow door open on the front. There was a dark fog inside. There was a girl standing outside the high threshold... a Russian girl." Natalie whispered Turgenev's little prose.

Kadinov also whispered with her:

The wind was blowing in the thick fog, and a cold air was emitting from the depths of the building, and a slow, heavy voice asked, "Ah. What do you want to step into this threshold? Do you know what is waiting for you?"

"I know." The girl replied.

"Cold, hunger, hatred, ridicule, contempt, insult, prison, disease, or even death?"

"I know."

"Are alienated from people, totally lonely?"

"I know, I'm ready, I'm willing to endure all the pain and all the blows."

"Not only your enemies, but also your relatives and friends will also give you these pains and blows."

"Yes... I have to endure it even if they give me these."

"Okay. Are you ready to sacrifice too?"

"yes."

"This is the nameless sacrifice! You will perish, and no one even knows it, and no one honors you."

"I don't want people to remember, I don't want people to pity. I don't want reputation, either."

"Are you willing to commit a crime?"

The girl buried her head.

"I'm willing to... go and commit a crime."

The sound inside stopped for a while, and then said something like this:

"You know that in the future you will deny your current belief in difficulties, and you will think you have wasted your youth in vain?"

"I know this floor too. I just want you to put me in."

"Come in."

The girl stepped into the threshold and put down a thick curtain immediately.

"Follower!" Someone mocked him in the back.

"A saint." I don't know where I came from.

"That's me!" said Natalie.

She raised her head, her face was already bright. Seeing such a smile, Bruce felt that this was Natalie with a soul. Such a brilliant, sincere smile that came to her heart even made all the beauty around her instantly lose its color, as if the only one before was her body. At this moment, Natalie's soul came from heaven.

Bruce was instantly lost.

Tony and Rogers looked sadly as Natalie got farther and farther away from them, her singing came from the opposite side.

"Get up, a slave who is hungry and cold!

Get up, the suffering people all over the world!

The blood is boiling,

Fight for the truth…”

For the first time they knew that Natalie could sing and she sang so well.

In the singing, in the bright sunshine, the Avengers split for the first time!

An Avenger always stood opposite her companions, willing to draw swords against her former comrades for faith and ideals, and willing to sacrifice everything for justice and beauty.
