Sword and Magic and Taxi

During this short journey, there was no attack on Zhao Mai, but there were a lot of troubles encountered. The battleships next to the Suez Canal are just the most ostentatious among them. Petty theft, drunken trouble, and traffic accidents can happen at any time. The world is turbulent, full of fights, and wars are brewing.

Some fights are for national liberation from colonial rule, others are simply the redistribution of power. These things happen not only in Wakanda, but also across the European continent. The First World War solved no problems and the so-called war to end all wars was nothing more than a joke. It is only 1927 now, ten years before the start of World War II (I calculate it based on the Marco Polo Bridge Incident anyway), but only four years before the September 18th Incident.

This is an unavoidable question, whether to stay here or return to the country. After Zhao Mai dismissed Erich Eisenhardt, he thought of Germany's efforts to recover from being squeezed by Britain and France, and his thoughts naturally drifted to the distant east. When he returned to the boat, he just said, Don't worry, it's not for us. It's all been solved. Then he fell into deep thought.

The history of World War II that he knew did not include the participation of superpowers, but this was not the case in the records of relevant ministries. Although many places have been encrypted and names have been crossed out, some clues can still be seen from those actions. However, the level of participation of superpowers is very low. Being a spy or a commando is already the biggest operation.

In front of Zhao Mai is a world full of powerful superpowers. The things these people can do are enough to destroy the entire earth. Zhao Mai hopes that there will be a thorough retrospection. The great changes belonging to superpowers will definitely come, and history can get back on track. If there were such retrogression and drastic changes, there would be no point in returning to the motherland.

On the one hand, the old man made it clear not to let him go back, so that he could hide himself better, and if he persisted until 2016, he would be able to fulfill the old man's instructions and regain his normal parents. On the other hand, as the only one, Zhao Mai found that the impact he had caused would not be completely eliminated by retrospect. In other words, world history may change because of his actions, and self-defeating things can easily happen.

The Chinese nation went through countless hardships and sacrifices before finally winning. It would be great if one less person died, but Zhao Mai could not forgive himself for every additional death. This is a dilemma: if the future is immutable, then there is no point in doing anything; if the future is variable, then how do you know that what you do will lead to the expected results?

The biggest question is, is it worth it to intervene in a war that the motherland ultimately wins, and bring the possibility of failure?

Even if Zhao Mai does not go back and chooses other methods, such as solving Japan's allies Germany and Italy during the war, then the more powerful Soviet Union, Britain, France and the United States may solve Japan faster. Is that necessarily a good thing for China? The Anti-Japanese War ended in 1940, and there was no need to fight the Hundred Regiment War. What next?

Zhao Mai's face was uncertain. Sometimes he was gritting his teeth, and sometimes he looked sad, but most of the time he was still hesitant. He is confident that he will be safe even if faced with an atomic bomb, but others will die. This battle is not for his life, but for the lives of others, and he cannot make decisions for others.

The more you think about it, the more hesitant you will be. This sentence is really not a lie. Zhao Mai touched his bald head (he would shave his head when he came to the ordinary world, and Xiaohua always wore a hat), but it was still difficult to make a decision. . This problem involves too many emotional factors and cannot be understood and solved by pure rationality or bystanders. After much thought, he could only set a standard for himself: he would only take action if the motherland encountered a powerful enemy that it could not defeat.

However, the old man is still there, is there anything he can't solve? He was also wondering if his decision was the result of a psychology of avoidance and procrastination, but that was another level of entanglement.

He probably thought of another problem, let him be alone. Xiaohua seemed quite experienced and said: The last time I sat in Mount Doom was sixteen years. But it's a good thing that I did that, otherwise something might have happened. Bigger problem.”

Sixteen years? Tyrion shook his head: You wouldn't do that even if you beat me to death. I would rather fight to death than waste my life in a daze. Besides, there is no time for him to think about that this time. Soon, we are getting closer and closer to the center of the storm. It remains to be seen whether we can find the eye of the storm, or even whether there is an eye!

Fortunately, Zhao Mai does not want to think about the big problems between heaven and earth this time, but is entangled with himself, so he will not get obsessed. He snorted: Is it okay to talk about me like this?

What are you thinking about? You came to me to avoid this situation, right? If you don't need me, just send me back to Westeros. I'm still thinking about Tessa! Tyrion said.

Even if you go back, you have to face your brother and the fragmented Lannister family first. Real family feelings cannot be separated, and you will also be entangled. Zhao Mai paused and then said: Forget it. Well, my problem can still be solved even if I do nothing. Just act according to the situation and make a decision when you have to. Who knows what will happen in the future?

Hearing this, Duojian probably guessed what Zhao Mai was thinking. The chaotic history and unknown reality make Dojian, who has all the information on the neural assistance network, unsure of what to do. However, she knew there was a way to solve Zhao Mai's problem: You can't decide now because you don't understand what will happen. Why not find a way to figure it out, just like you have done every time before?

I will definitely work hard in that direction. Zhao Mai replied. At this time, their cruise ship had already passed by the Warspite, and a group of naval officials were searching for Mr. Stead all over the ship.

Nick Flamel, who is far away in France, is also struggling. The root cause is the magic letter sent to him by Zhao Mai from Wakanda. As a veteran alchemist family and the owner of the magical eternal stone, Nick Flamel is naturally well-informed. How could he not notice that the world is becoming more and more weird?

He can deal with alchemy creatures that are inexplicably out of control; he can eliminate the uneasy factors in his family that have great tempers and low abilities; he can get rid of unreasonable demands from the magical world by relying on his old temper and being vague. But Mike Longhou... Mr. Lemay didn't have much confidence in being able to deal with it.

What if he is the trigger that destroys me? When he thought of the house-destroying battle between Mike and Grindelwald, he felt lingering fear. What kind of friend is terrible? Friends who attract countless enemies are the most terrifying. He personally admires Mike Longhou, but as a figure in the magical world and the parent of a large family, he has to think more about it. Even if they use the excuses of very good personal relationship and the aftermath of the Wakanda incident needs to be dealt with to deflect the attention of the wizarding world and welcome Mike in as a guest, there is still the unmarried Barbara. …

Oh, how annoying! This troubled world begins with difficult choices!
