Chapter 74 World Trends

“…”

Barbara looked at Andrew with a strange look.

That's it?

Is this all about your self-introduction?

It’s rare that I have said so much, just reply to me, “My name is Andrew”?

Don't I know your name is Andrew?!

Barbara's pretty face turned black, and she was so angry that she almost carried it over by Andrew's answer!

I thought to myself that this guy... maybe it's not that he doesn't take credit, but that he doesn't know how to talk to the girl at all!

She didn't know Andrew had no choice.

You can't tell me that you are a water magician.

Andrew was also helpless.

Without revealing his core identity, the only introduction Andrew can give is this sentence "My name is Andrew".

Of course, self-introduction is not important.

What is important is intelligence, intelligence!

"I didn't expect that you were the third lady of the Warm Fire Chamber of Commerce, so you were disrespectful."

Andrew coughed to relieve the embarrassment.

Then he asked seriously: "Is your identity the reason why Hobert chases you?"

“Yes, but not all.”

Barbara tried to calm down and then slowly said something.

Andrew listened carefully.

Then, finally, in my mind, I gradually outlined a picture of this world that is becoming clearer and clearer.

In this world of flames, the Magic Union, as the largest force, dominated the West.

The main control area of ​​the Warm Fire Chamber of Commerce is in the East.

The north is where the royal court is located.

The south is a vast primeval forest with few people. However, deep in the forest, there are many retired magicians. Because it is also called the "land of retreat".

The inland desert is located in the middle of this world. Although it is located in the middle, it is actually because of its excessively harsh living environment and is almost not valued by any force.

"On the surface, our Warm Fire Chamber of Commerce and the Magic Union had a pretty good relationship."

Barbara said slowly, "Until more than half a year ago, my second sister married the king of the royal court."

"A political marriage?"

"Yes."

Barbara nodded, "The one from Wang Ting is really fascinated by my second sister. You must know that in history, Wang Ting has been swaying from side to side and never willing to make a real choice between the two major forces, let alone openly marrying."

What the implication is that Wang Ting has naturally moved into the camp of the Warm Fire Chamber of Commerce with this marriage.

Andrew was skeptical about this.

I thought to myself that there was a cold frost guard from the royal court just now, and almost cut off the patron saint of our Wildfire Town.

The royal court represents secular power. At least nominally, it is the manager of this world. In every city of big and small, officials have been appointed. The mayor of Wildfire is considered the most grassroots manager.

Andrew thought to himself: "Anyway, the Wildfire Mayor from the Royal Court is helping the Magic Union, which is always true."

Barbara looked at her expression and seemed to guess Andrew's thoughts.

Explained: "The mayor before should have been bribed by the Magic Union as an individual. Overall, the Royal Court has indeed been included in our side. In fact, since the wedding between my sister and Wang, the Magic Union has had a very good attitude."

Andrew nodded and said, "That should be deliberately artificial. Only fools will truly believe it in order to make people careless."

Barbara: “…”

Forced to suppress the urge to vomit blood, Barbara continued: "The Magic Union showed goodwill on the surface, but in fact it took half a year to prepare. Yesterday, Hobert actually didn't want to kill me, but to catch me. I think it was to threaten my father as a hostage after I caught me."

Andrew nodded.

I understood why Barbara said before, “The reason why Hobert wanted to arrest her is because of her identity, but not entirely because of her identity.”

Because this is simply a struggle between the two major forces.

The point is not Barbara's identity.

Instead: The first and second forces in the flame world are broken up! Barbara is just a part of the entire struggle.

"It seems that Wang Ting should indeed turn to the Warm Fire Chamber of Commerce. The Magic Union felt the threat and pressure, and had only endured for half a year to plan a conspiracy. The choice of Wildfire Mayor should be an exception."

Andrew then accepted Barbara's statement.

After silently digesting the information, he suddenly asked: "Since I have been preparing for half a year, it should be much more than just chasing you, but there are many other actions, right?"

After all, I have watched so many movies and TV series before traveling through time, so this little reasoning is not difficult.

But Barbara and Andrew's insight really surprised her a little.

After all, this flame world is not as rich as cultural and entertainment activities. In her opinion, being able to think of the overall situation from a local change is not as insight as a young man in such a remote town can have.

She stared at Andrew and looked for a while.

Then he replied: "You are right."

Her voice became solemn: "After I woke up, I contacted my family as soon as possible, and I realized that the Magic Union's suppression and attack on our Warm Chamber of Commerce is in all aspects! So you are right, it is indeed not just a pursuit of me alone. In fact, the pursuit of me is just a small part of the entire operation!"

Even after hearing Barbara's words, Andrew seemed to think of the recent turmoil or shock in the flame world.

He asked in a deep voice: "What's the specific situation? What's the specific situation?"

But Barbara shook her head: "I don't know. I only know that the magic union has taken action, and it's crazy."

Andrew couldn't help but frown: "Didn't you say you've contacted your family?"

I thought that the wildfire town that I came through time was indeed very remote and backward.

But this world of flames is actually a very developed magic civilization. Andrew knew this through many books in Hobert's laboratory.

For example, products like "magic communication equipment" do not exist in Wildfire Town at all, but in big cities like Warm Fire City and Scholar Fortress are actually very common.

This is also the reason why Andrew must wait for Barbara to wake up and then chat with her as soon as possible!

Only through Barbara can you understand the real situation of the flame world outside the wildfire town and the inland desert, especially the current situation!

He asked again: "Didn't you contact your family? Didn't they say it specifically?"

Barbara said slowly: "They want to tell me specifically, but... the communication was cut off. I never contacted again."

"What?" Andrew was shocked.

You don’t need to ask: it must have been cut off by the Magic Union.

Then at least one thing is confirmed: the Magic Union's comprehensive attack on the Warm Fire Chamber of Commerce, one of which is aimed at communications!

Shaking his head, Andrew thought to himself that he was thinking about whether the Warm Fire Chamber of Commerce would have support.

Now it seems that the Warm Fire Chamber of Commerce is simply too busy to take care of itself!

I still confirmed and asked: "So we won't have reinforcements, right?"

Barbara nodded: "I'm afraid there will be no more."

He paused and said, "But there will be no spare energy in the Magic Union."

Andrew thought about it and agreed with this statement.

Otherwise, there would be a great magician level—that is, a strong man of the level before Hobert was injured—and there would be no need to test or demonstrate, just crush him directly.
Chapter completed!
