The Record Of Barton's Fantastical Events

Chapter 123: Chapter 24 Barton’s Master

Translator: Doggotranslation

“Since we are going to get to know the ‘New World’, do we need to call Anthony?” Benjamin moved his hands on the steering wheel and asked casually.

Zach turned his head and looked at the receding scene in front of the truck window, his pale fingers stroked his chin, and thought, “you are right, maybe we should call Anthony, he is the mayor of Barton. ”

“What are you talking about? What ‘new world’? !” In the truck, the ‘weak’ James really had no control over the direction of the conversation. Now he has been forced to accept that he wanted to fully understand the world, but the trend of the topic at this time seemed to be beyond his understanding. ‘New’? !

Benjamin had turned again, and James could see that it was the direction of City Hall.

“But Anthony is still reluctant to talk to me because of Ian.” Zach’s mood was a little low. After the end of the last full moon, the vampire left a message for Anthony after a day of rest to inform the departure of Ian. However, Anthony has not responded and was obviously avoiding him.

“Who is Ian? !” James yelled from the back seat, pressing his hands on the back of the front seat, his head stuck out between the two.

“This is a very personal matter. You have made it very clear that we are not friends, so you don’t need to know. But I can give you a hint that you two had an unpleasant encounter. ” Zach glanced sideways at James, “But to answer your first question, the world is not that ‘new’, but new changes have appeared.”

James frowned, the picture in his mind constantly changed; the image of the vampire who had a stake in his chest in the basement of Grande stopped in his mind. Zach was right. They were not friends. James threw this picture out of his mind and asked something that he wanted to know more, “What do you mean by new changes?”

“Hell, the hell that stated many times in the holy scripture has opened its door in Barton.” Zach said casually, “Perhaps it’s not just Barton, I think it has opened its door throughout the entire state of Massa, even the entire federation.”

“What? !” At this time, James had a ridiculous thought in his mind; Was hell even real? ! Not a metaphor, not a rhetoric that only existed in curses, but a real place!

The sound of a knock appeared on Anthony’s office door, and female secretary Gina opened the door and entered, “May... Ann.” When there were no outsiders, Gina had started to call the mayor of Barton by his name!

“Ann, Mr. Grande want to see you.” There was a faint resentment in Gina’s eyes. Recently, Anthony has left her out in the cold. She began to worry whether Anthony had discovered that she was really just a hollow beautiful vase. We knew that this worry was superfluous; because Anthony has always known about this.

“They didn’t have an appointment, I think...”

“Let them in.” Anthony leaned back in his chair and took a deep breath and waved his hand. “Also, you still have to call me the mayor when you are at work.”

Something stuck in Gina’s throat; she thought that Anthony’s irritated look was aimed at her. It seemed that this beautiful female secretary was not stupid, it was just that she has used her intelligence in the wrong place.

Gina lowered her head and exited the office. After a while, Grande’s two brothers entered the office with James. James was brought by Zach on purpose; he needed to know what the correct worldview was.

Anthony raised his head from the file at the table and saw that James was here too, which meant that Zach did not come for Ian. Anthony breathed a sigh of relief, but still frowned, put away the documents on the table, and looked at Zach, “Just tell me what happened.”

If Zach wanted to exchange feelings, he would not come to the city hall, but go directly to his house. So something must have happened.

“The gate of hell has opened, and demons began to appear in the city of Barton.” Zach and Benjamin pulled out of the chairs casually and sat down opposite Anthony. Zach’s words were also very direct, completely different from when he talked to James.

James felt a shortness of breath and he silently pulled over a chair to sit down.

“Demons?” Anthony shook his head, pressed his fingers between his eyebrows, and thought for a while, “This is the reason why the crime rate has risen recently, right? I can allocate part of the funds to the police station to strengthen night patrols. Last year, Barton Mercy Hospital made an anti-violence propaganda. Maybe I can tell the dean to do it again. I will try to attend more of the activities of the various support associations...”

James was surprised to hear Anthony say those things. All of them seemed to be aimed at strengthening citizens’ safety awareness and reducing violence factors. It was just that Anthony’s brows frowned tighter and tighter, and the pen in his hand was constantly writing and drawing. The city government’s money was not unlimited. Whatever was added, something must be reduced accordingly.

“You also have to hurry up, find those demons, expel or solve them, do it however you like.” Anthony thought for a while, “One month is the most I can do, and after one month, the city government funds will be allocated according to normal specifications.”

There was a smile at the corner of Zach’s mouth. Hearing Anthony’s complaint, he leaned forward, reached out and held the pen that Anthony was using, and closed the notebook, “Anthony, you didn’t hear it clearly. I was not just talking about the appearance of demons, but the point is that the gate of hell has been opened. ”

Unlike being summoned or squeezing in through the cracks of the world, the gate was opened. One month? If the gate was not closed, it would be forever!

Anthony’s face just showed a trace of confusion, “What did you say?”

“The gate of hell has been opened.” Zach fulfilled his friend’s request.

“What? ! How did it open? !” Anthony stared at Zach.

Zach signaled Anthony not to get agitated, “It’s just a guess at the moment, just for your reference.”

Something unknown happened in the Federation that started the cremation trend. The nonhumans entrenched in their own territory began to gather and recruit forces, wanting to move to new lands. The forces that were already on the move were the Camarilla that was originally in the central part of the Federation and Papa Midnight; they were both the backbone of the top-level of the first and third categories in the classification of nonhumans.

Now, it was possible to add backbones of the top-level of the second category to this migration list. When the counterbalance at the top was no longer there, the door at the bottom would open.

Zach looked at Anthony after speaking, “Anthony, is there any news outside of Barton City? How accurate is this guess?”

Anthony leaned on the back of his chair, palms on his forehead and fingers pressed his temples, “I’m afraid it’s more than half. I don’t know about the places that are far away from Barton, but Newton City has recently been in the same situation as us. Moreover, this phenomenon is still spreading!”

Zach smiled and shook his head, “Anthony, you should put aside the rest of today’s affairs, we are going to visit this guest from the underground.”

“Huh!” Anthony snorted coldly, cleaned up the things on the desk, stood up, adjusted the clothes, and took the coat from the hanger. “He must know who is the master of this city.”

James silently followed the three of them, and now he truly admitted that the world in his eyes was not complete.
