Vol 3 Chapter 24: mayor

A believer who lost his family—his son, Toby; lost his career—sold by Pixar Department Store; what can he do when he sees a young priest taken away by a detective? Yes, you can only talk to the God in his faith, and for the faith of the Lord, this conversation is prayer.
Zac placed Mr. Pixar to pray there quietly, without disturbing, and walked out of the church to find Blake.
Blake probably didn't confirm what he saw outside the church. He kept looking in the direction of James's car disappearing. Until Zack came out, he was very careful. "What happened inside?"
Zac shrugged. He knew what was happening. When talking to Pixar, the voices of James and Father Eric were also in vampire perception. But Zac is not going to say anything, because the next word is just a farce. James is completely stuck in the death path of ‘I have to catch a murderer’ that he has made, and he has to do something. This matter will not have a good result.
Zach asked, "What about Jackson?"
"Go home." Blake glanced into the church, confirming Mr. Pixar's condition.
"Go home? Your home, or ..." Zach's thoughtful way of thinking, hey, "still, Bishape Manor."
Blake's eyes returned to Zac's face, his lips quirked, not knowing what he was helpless, "I can't really be vague with you." He shook his head, "He returned to Bishape Manor."
Zac blinked, "He wouldn't go home looking for something to commemorate his friend Toby."
"Really." Blake looked helpless. "After Camille refused to let him stay with Toby, he was a little uncomfortable. He felt that Toby was destined not to be in this world. So, in his opinion Toby is really dead. He wants to get his own memorial service. "
Zac thought for a while, and agreed with Jackson ’s idea. The kid looked at the problem thoroughly. He said at the Ford funeral home yesterday that he said,
If you have nothing to do in heaven, do n’t expect to come back after going to heaven. It's right, right.
"Speaking of that, I remember Pixar was already excluded from the West End. Even if you are old enough, you should have intersects with the Pixar family." Zack is questioning, "How did Jackson and Pixar's son become friend's?"
One thing, do n’t forget, Zach has a copy of
Barton From The End
13 years ago from Ian, with records on it, that Zach has n’t come to Barton yet, Grande is still old When he was in Grande, the Westerners commissioned Grande ’s work, and Ian ’s experience in Barton, to write to Anthony who had not come here-his brother proved that the city was not on the battlefield at all. I hope so.
So Zack has some understanding of Barton's past, especially in the West Side.
"Mr. Pixar still lives in the West End." Blake pursed his mouth. "Toby is still attending school in the West End." Shaking his head a little sadly, "Admittingly, our parents may have completely cut off contact, no longer They can be brought together on any occasion, but everyone in our generation knows because of the school. We are friends. "It seems to prove this," You should know that Jackson ’s funeral, Mr. Pixar and Todd Bi is here. Then Mr. Pixar did not communicate with our parents, just for Toby ’s friends. "
For this reason, Zac can accept it and nodded. "Don't you have to work for a few days." I changed the subject directly.
"Uh." There was the same impatience as when Zack asked this question yesterday, and Blake waved his hand. "I'm on vacation." He also has very reasonable reasons. "I just went to the capital for a long time. The vacation I deserve. "
"Speaking of your business trip." Zac doesn't mind continuing to change the subject. "You should read today's newspaper, Newton's confusion." Zac's words were very forward-looking. "Are you going to end?"
Blake closed his mouth.
Zac waited a while, helpless, "I will know sooner or later, whether from the newspaper or from Anthony, so, let's talk."
Also, the process of the New Mayor of Newton should start on Zac ’s side, and it has been dragging on for so long.
Mr. Blake took a breath. It should be the language of the organization.
"Before I went on a business trip, I told you why the mayor sent me to participate in the state government's arrangement for Mayor Newton."
Zac nodded, "There is a possibility that he will be able to express his opinion in order for Barton to be controlled by his neighbors." He raised an eyebrow. "The politics of the Demon Banquet cannot completely control the future of the city next to Barton."
Blake took a deep breath again and suddenly raised an inexplicable head, "Did you know? When the demon hadn't controlled Newton, what was Newton's lord?"
Lord of Newton.
Uh, remember at the beginning of the year, what was the rumor about Barton, Barton is an unowned city. Is n’t Barton the mayor? Yes, Anthony is n’t. But why was it given the title of unowned city. Because there are no alien leaders in the city.
Now we think about a very boring problem. Who is dominating this world.
corn? cockroach? mouse? bird……
It is human.
It is humans that divide the world into plates, countries, states, and towns. It is humans who have formulated laws and regulations and formulated various rules.
Then interracial, using these rules, used it.
The idea of ​​saving, anyway, the aliens are either symbiotic with humans, or have the same physical appearance as humans-at least one external image is the same as the human appearance. The world is a bit bigger. After the Middle Ages, the places where the world can establish institutions have basically been excavated by human beings. There is no place to establish their own territory for aliens. That is to simply borrow.
In a human city, where there are human administrative organs, there will also be an alien, lord. Let us live happily together.
We all know the large-scale alien system. The western part is controlled by the magic banquet, and the central part is the secret alliance, at least before the secret alliance has not left. To the east, where Barton is, is where the remaining aliens prevail. The central and western regions, which once had absolute control over territories, will naturally regard the eastern region as a chaotic disorder.
Back to the question Blake asked at this time, who was Newton ’s lord when Newton was not yet occupied.
This matter is really difficult for Zack.
"I ..." Zac frowned, recalling for a long time, "I don't know." Zac was defending himself. "The combination of Benjamin and me on the way from the battlefield to Barton after the war is very ... … "Zac was thinking about the words," a combination of deterrence. Almost no one in the city we passed by had trouble with us, no one wanted to provoke us, and then gave us a reason to stay there. "
Blake pursed his lips, "It's an illusion." He gave the answer.
Zac was a little surprised, "Imaginary man. Soul aliens?" Forget this, there is no need to spit out other aliens with his racial advantages of vampires. "This explains that Newton has never done anything to Patton. And Benjamin "
"He didn't want to provoke the demon." Blake continued. "When the demon came out of the gate of hell, he basically gave Newton directly to the demon."
Zac could feel in which direction Blake's words were going. "Are you finally telling me that this phantom is back?"
"He has never left." Blake is also simple enough. "He is an illusion, when Newton's human beings only want to protect themselves under the terror of the devil, he is the safest."
It ’s not difficult to understand, the human desire has been fulfilled. Some people hope to be safe, whether people's hopes will come true or not. Let's not talk about it. The illusionist who has received this desire is definitely the safest.
Zac pouted, trying to continue to participate, "Then he also joined Newton's new mayor's appointment review?"
"Yeah." Blake looked helpless. "I don't know when he kept up with me. Well, maybe I just went out of Barton. He followed. I still went to the state government and was sent by the Demon Feast. The correspondent reminded me that he knew that there was an illusion next to him. "
"So the Mayor of Newton's decision has become a joint decision between you, the Feast of Barton, and his former Lord Newton?"
Blake shook his head. "No. It's up to him to decide."
Zac frowned, "You're kidding. Behind you are all the forces of Barton, humans and aliens. The political relationship that the entire West behind the Demon feast is spreading in the Confederation. But you let a man who has no illusions decide a city leader By?"
"He, he is an illusion." Blake looked at Zac. "No matter who I and the person at the Feast have elected as the next Mayor of Newton, he can rely on himself as an illusion ..." Consider the word , "Eliminate this mayor."
"This is ridiculous." Zac shook his head. "If he has this ability, why did he allow the devil to spend so long in his city."
"Because he is not the mayor of humans, he does not care what the demons do to human citizens. He does not care about the demons wanting human souls. He is Lord Newton, and he only cares about the safety of the aliens under his hands." The restless look, "He originally relied on human desires to maintain the balance between aliens and humans, so that Newton ’s original aliens would have the opportunity to survive in the city-he can use the ability of the illusion to create these opportunities and let the city The aliens and humans coexist in a strange way. When the demon came, he knew that the balance must be broken. He had no intention of helping the demon to obtain the human soul, so he simply handed the city to the demon. "
Zac opened his mouth, and now think about it-everyone remembers that Fitz was the one who kept submitting pledges to the city government asking Mayor Anthony to develop Barton's cultural activities. Yes, I'm talking about activities like Fenz's gang of otakus that they keep expecting.
Remember how Anthony once told Zac about it, Barton didn't have the energy and strength to do this kind of activity.
Now think about it, maybe Patton lacks energy and strength, but a phantom who is willing to do this. What can't be done by human citizens, can't aliens do it? Those aliens are born with racial talents and are of no use other than murder?
Zac has an inexplicable feeling that this illusion may be a good lord.
Blake sensed what Zac thought of, and paused for a moment before continuing, "And most importantly, he has no ability to get rid of demons. He knows to get rid of one, and there will be a new demon lord coming to this world ..."
This is the actual problem that Zack and Anthony faced when the fallen angel Crowley played, very realistic.
"... Unless the door to is closed, he can't get Newton back to what he was." Blake spread his hand. "This is what he explained to me and the Demon Banquet." Obviously there was a follow-up, "Then he listed He made a short list of mayors he had prepared himself, and let me and the people at the Magic Banquet pick them. "
"It's impossible for the Magic Banquet to give up control of Newton." Zac was more serious. "In addition to threats, this illusion must have said something more convincing reasons."
"He did." Blake nodded. "He knows that the purpose of the feast is nothing more than suppressing the black witch and narrowing the relationship with the angel. For James and Barton to have a real career at least 4 years later. Prepare for the development joint. He also knows my purpose ... "He turned his head to look at Zac," Don't make the magic feast so easy. "
Ability to absorb human desires is also quite frustrating.
Zac waved his hand and said nothing.
Blake went on, "He avoided the aspect that Me and Mey banned, and elected the mayor from the people in Newton who are still in the city. The reason is that the people who know Newton are only Newton natives, if the Demon wants this In the future, the city will not only cooperate with Barton, but Newton will need to regain its prosperity. After the next four years as mayor, the Magic Banquet can send Devil ’s satisfied political candidates to take over Newton when Newton returns to life. For suppressing the Black Witch, simply reduce the city ’s mortality rate, and for the Angels, just teach. He is basically a high-speed feast, and now in Newton ’s worst period, he comes to work hard, and then hands over the results Demon feast. "
"Then are you going to cooperate with him?" Zack asked.
"He knows that the angels and black witches we put Barton in Newton are for Barton himself." Blake frowned. "He told me the same thing. We have to deal with the things of Barton and the Demon Feast. It will not be the purpose of the Demon Banquet. No matter what he does in Newton, he will have no impact on the problems inside Barton. At most, he will help us maintain peace around Barton. As long as it can limit the persuasion of the Demon Banquet to give up control of Newton at this time, Good for everyone. "
Zac thought for a moment and nodded. It made sense. It was equivalent to a third party suddenly appearing to maintain the relationship with the outside world. And it happened that this third party, what I heard now, is not a messy guy.
"Then what is your result?" Zac decided to ask the result. "Who is the new mayor of Newton?"
"The principal of Newton Special School. The place where the demon ignored when he was there." Blake was suddenly off topic. "The illusion is now in Barton, beside the mayor."
