Chapter Twenty-Four: Barton's Master
"Since we're going to get to know the 'New World,' do we need to call Anthony?" asked Benjamin, with his hands on the wheel, casually.
Zach turned his head to look at the receding scene in front of the window, his pale fingers groping his chin and thinking, "You reminded me, maybe we should really call Anthony, he's the mayor of Barton." ”
"What are you talking about?what 'New World'?!" In the vampire and werewolf car, the 'weak' James really has no initiative, and the direction of the conversation has always been in the hands of the vampire. Now he has been forced to accept that he wants to understand the world in its entirety, but the topic seems to be going beyond his comprehension at this time, 'new'?!
Benjamin had turned again, and James could tell it was in the direction of City Hall.
"But Anthony still doesn't want to talk to me because of Ian. Zack's feelings were a little low. After the end of the full moon last month, after the vampire rested for a day, he left a message to Anthony informing him of Ian's departure, but Anthony never replied, apparently running away.
"Who's Ian?!" Jacos shouted in the back seat, his hands pressed against the backrest of the front seat, his head between the two.
"It's a very personal thing, and you've made it very clear that we're not friends, so you don't need to know. But I can give you a hint that you had a not very pleasant meeting. Zach glanced at James, "But to answer your first question, the world is not so 'new', but new changes have emerged." ”
James frowned, the image in his mind kept flipping, and in the basement of Grande, the vampire who had been pulled out of his chest stopped in his mind. Zach was right, they weren't friends, James threw the image out of his head and asked what he wanted to know more, "What do you mean, new change?"
"Hell, the hell of the canonical utterance, has opened its doors in the city of Barton. "Maybe it's not just Barton, I think the whole of Massa has its doors opened, even the Union." ”
"What?!" James had a ridiculous thought in his mind at this time, hell is real?!not a metaphor, not a rhetoric in swearing, but true!
There was a knock on Anthony's office door, and Gina, the female secretary, pushed it open and entered, "City...... Quiet. "When there were no outsiders, Gina had already called the mayor of Barton by his first name!
"Ann, there are two Mr. Grande who want to see you. There was a hint of resentment in Gina's eyes, and Anthony had been snubbing her lately, and she was beginning to wonder if Anthony had discovered that he was really just a hollow vase. We know that this worry is unwarranted, and Anthony has always known it.
"They didn't have an appointment, I want to ......"
"Let them in. Anthony leaned back in his chair and took a deep breath and waved, "Also, you still have to call me mayor when you work." ”
Something choked in Gina's throat, and she mistook Anthony's irritated look for herself. It seems that this beautiful female secretary is not stupid, she is just clever and misplaced.
Gina bowed her head and exited the office. Moments later, Grande's two brothers entered the office with James. James was brought in by Zach on purpose, and he needed to know what the right worldview was.
Anthony lifted his head from the text in front of the table and saw that James was also there, indicating that Zach was not here for Ian. Anthony breathed a sigh of relief, but still frowned, put away the text on the table, and looked at Zack, "Let's just say what's going on." ”
If Zach was here to exchange feelings, he would not come to the city hall, but would go directly to his house. So something must have happened.
"The gates of hell opened, and demons began to appear in the city of Barton. Zach and Benjamin pulled over from their chairs and sat down across from Anthony. Zach's words were also very direct, completely different from the circle guidance he had with James.
James breathed a sigh of relief and silently pulled over a chair and sat down.
"Demons?" Anthony shook his head, fingers pressed to his eyebrows, and thought for a moment, "That's why crime has risen recently." I can allocate some funds to the police station to strengthen night patrols. Last year, Barton Mercy Hospital did an anti-violence campaign, and I might say that the director would do it again. On the side of the mutual aid association, I can also do more activities......"
James watched in amazement as Anthony said a whole bunch of things about the city's construction, each of which was trying to increase the safety awareness of citizens and reduce the violence. It's just that Anthony's brows are getting tighter and tighter, and the pen in his hand is also constantly writing and drawing, the money of the city government is not unlimited, and what is added must be subtracted accordingly.
"You should also move quickly, find those demons, and expel and solve them. Anthony thought for a moment, "I can only turn around for a month, and after a month, the city government funds will have to be distributed according to normal specifications." ”
There was a smile on the corner of Zack's mouth, he listened to Anthony's babbling, and then leaned forward, reached out and pressed Anthony's pen that was still writing, and closed the notebook, "Anthony, you didn't hear clearly." I'm not just talking about demons appearing, the point is that the gates of hell have been opened. ”
Instead of being summoned and squeezed through the cracks in the world, the door is opened. If the door is not closed, this time will be forever!
Anthony's face froze with a hint of confusion, "Say it again?"
"The gates of hell have been opened. Zach fulfilled his friend's request.
"What?!How did you open it?!" Anthony glared at Zach.
Zach motioned for Anthony not to get excited, "It's just a guess now, you can refer to it." ”
What happened unknown in the Commonwealth started the popularity of cremation. Entrenched in their own territory, the alien races began to collect and recruit, and wanted to gather forces to move to new lands. It is already known that the Vampire Hidden Alliance and Papa Midnight, which were originally in the middle of the Federation, are the top two categories in the first and third categories of alien classification.
Now, it is possible to add to this list of migrated top-level constituents of the second category of the alien race, which does not require much developed imagination, and that is heaven. When the top check and balance is gone, the bottom door opens.
Zach looked at Anthony after speaking, "Anthony, is there any news outside of Barton? How accurate is this guess?"
Anthony leaned back in his chair, his palms on his forehead and pressed his temples, "I'm afraid more than half, too far away for me to know, but the city of Newton, west of Barton, Massa, has been like us lately. It's spreading!"
Zach smiled and shook his head, "Anthony, you should put aside the rest of the day, we're going to visit this guest who came out of the ground." ”
"Hmph. Anthony snorted coldly, straightened the things on the desk, stood up, straightened his clothes, and took off his coat from the hanger, "He must know who is the master of this city." ”
James silently followed behind the three of them, and now, he truly admitted that the world in his eyes was incomplete.
