Mystery: The Return of the Stars

"Counterclockwise?"

With his limited knowledge of mysticism, it was difficult for Maric to fully understand the meaning of this sentence, but as an extraordinary person who had experienced fighting, he could realize the danger it might contain.

"If reincarnation after death is clockwise, then resurrection from death is counterclockwise." Hastur briefly introduced.

Resurrection from the dead? !

Maric's expression changed drastically. In mysticism, resurrection from the dead is definitely one of the taboos!

The people and things related to it will not end well. Blood and madness, depravity and destruction are the ultimate destination of this taboo!

"Are you sure?"

"No, but it's a very reasonable conjecture."

Hastur shook his head. He only made corresponding reasonable inferences based on his own knowledge of mysticism. As for whether it was correct, he was not sure.

Maybe he just thinks too much, and clockwise or counterclockwise has no effect at all.

Maric hesitated and said: "It's better to report it to the Church of the Night. It might be too dangerous for just the two of us."

"Well, can I report anonymously?"

Hastur did not want to expose his identity. Based on his knowledge of the Nighthawks of the Church of the Night Goddess, they would definitely conduct an investigation on the person who provided the information.

For example, if he casts the nightmare technique and enters your dream to ask questions, Hastur is not sure whether he can remain unaffected.

"It's a little difficult."

Maric scratched his head. As long as there is an envoy from the Lord, the people from the Church of the Night will be able to follow the clues and find out clearly.

"Earl Richard is not a bad person. Maybe there are other opportunities for this matter."

Hastur decided to take a little risk. Sometimes being reckless is an effective way to solve problems.

"You're not even an extraordinary person, so you dare to participate in such a thing?"

"Isn't there someone who protects me?"

"...If we really fight, I can't guarantee your safety."

"Don't worry, I still have some strength."

Maric glanced at Hasta's body without any muscles, and said with disgust: "I have serious doubts about this sentence."

"Oh, okay, let me show my cards, I have already become an extraordinary person."

He is about to face danger, and Hasta no longer hides it. Anyway, he will cooperate with Maric and the others many times in the future.

"You, Extraordinary? Which way?" Maric didn't look too surprised.

"Lawyer path, Sequence 8 barbarian."

Hastur did not directly say that it was the Black Emperor path, because many Beyonders did not know the true meaning of the Black Emperor.

"Tsk, that's really fast!"

"You nobles are really rich. It's been less than two months since you first went to the Brave Bar, right?"

"Barbarian, you are nothing like that."

Maric clicked his tongue in amazement, and felt a little more confident about tonight's action.

Without the distraction of protecting Hastur, he was less afraid of the spirit creature, especially at night.

Hasta said with a smile: "If Miss Sharon is here, our actions tonight will be more secure."

"I'll leave her a message, but she might not be able to make it. She doesn't like extraneous things."

Then the two discussed the evening's actions and soon formulated the basic policy for the action.

It is up to Maric to resist the spirit world creatures that may become angry, and Hastur is responsible for leading the group of ordinary people away. If Earl Richard is also bad, Hastur will attack them in a sneak attack.

After formulating a course of action, the two discussed relevant details, as well as new changes that may suddenly occur.

…

Around twelve o'clock at night, the familiar whistle began to sound.

Hasta and Maric, who had been waiting by the lake for a long time, looked at each other, got up and looked for the source of the sound.

It was truly the first time to come into contact with this kind of extraordinary event, and Hastur was still a little excited.

In order to ensure the smoothness and safety of tonight's operation, he figured out a few very suitable rules, some of which could be used to fight the enemy, and some of which could be used to cover his and Maric's retreat.

In terms of weapons, he also placed a suitable large wooden stick near the guessed center position one step ahead.

If tonight's ceremony is really where he expected it to be, he can quickly take up arms to fight back. If it's not in that position, it proves that tonight is still safe.

As the two people approached the source of the sound, their expressions gradually became serious. The route they were taking was leading to the location predicted by Hastur.

This proved that his guess was true. Earl Richard and his party really started the ceremony around a circle point, and placed the most important thirteenth ceremony in the center.

"It seems your guess is correct."

"I don't feel happy at all."

"Be careful."

"The same goes for you. I don't want you to ask me for help later."

"You should keep this to yourself."

Action was imminent, Hastur went to find his big stick, and then he and Maric arrived at the burning fire.

A spacious area has been cleared here, and many people have added wood to the fire to make the fire more raging.

The number of people attending the party tonight was nearly double that of the previous two times, with more than 30 people.

Seeing Hastur arriving, Earl Richard greeted him eagerly and introduced Hastur to the grand ceremony they were going to hold tonight.

Hastur listened to Earl Richard's introduction with a smile. After he finished speaking excitedly, he asked Earl Richard how he knew to hold the ceremony in this way.

"Of course the Lord told me. He appeared in my dream a long time ago and guided me all the way. This time, He also guided me to complete the ceremony."

"Oh, what does the Lord think of this ceremony?"

"He said that as long as we act according to His will, we will surely receive His blessing, and the souls of our deceased relatives will also be completely at peace, reincarnated, and obtain happiness in the next life."

"Then did your Lord say why thirteen ceremonies were held? This is not an auspicious number."

"I also asked the Lord, and He said that the first twelve ceremonies represent the twelve months of the year, and the last ceremony represents that the Lord's blessing will always be with us."

Faced with Hastur's ulterior motives, Earl Richard still did not hide anything, which made Hastur more convinced of the innocence of Earl Richard.

The reason why the situation today is mainly due to his ignorance of mystical knowledge and the sinister intentions of the spiritual creature!

Hastur hesitated and deliberately lowered his voice and said, "I heard that those who can become God's spokesperson in the world are not ordinary people. You?"

"I am an extraordinary person, a sequence 7 psychic."

Earl Richard was obviously very excited, and said with enthusiasm in his eyes: "It is precisely because I can communicate with spirits that I can hear the Lord's guidance and become the Lord's spokesperson in the world."

"What an enviable opportunity."

"The Lord also likes you. If you are willing to become His believer, you will definitely become an extraordinary person!"

Hastur caught the key words, "Does the Lord know my existence?"

"On the night when I first met you, when the Lord communicated with me in a dream, he mentioned that you are a good seedling and very suitable to become His believer."

"I am a good seedling?"

"Yes, the Lord said that you are very suitable to become a secret prayer person. As long as you are willing, He can help you fulfill your wish."

Secret prayer person?

Hastur instantly felt that all the hairs on his body stood up, his heartbeat almost skipped a beat, his mouth was dry, and his body was stiff for a moment.

How could he be suitable to become a secret prayer person!

According to Earl Richard's experience, the so-called master he mentioned is undoubtedly the spirit creature.

Even if the spirit creature with high intelligence sees that he is a good candidate, it should recommend him to take the path of death, right?

Why do you think you are suitable to become a secret praying person!

Is it really just a simple spirit creature?

Or does he have characteristics related to the secret praying person path?

He just doesn't know it?

The secret praying person path belongs to the omniscient and omnipotent path. Could it be the power of the stars?

It shouldn't be. With the status of the Hall of Stars, how could a spirit creature easily see that he has the authority of the stars?

It must be other reasons.

Fuck!

Could it be related to Mr. A!

This guy has always given him a bad feeling. He wanted to let him take the secret praying person path when they first met.

At that time, he thought that Mr. A simply valued his appearance.

Now think about it, there should be other factors.

During this period of time, Mr. A has not appeared in his life, making him almost forget about it.

Is Mr. A hiding in the dark and spying now?

Hasta felt his scalp tingling and goosebumps all over his body. He didn't dare to look around casually, lest he suddenly meet Mr. A's gaze and scare himself.

Maybe he was just overthinking.

This highly intelligent spiritual creature might know what kind of organization the Aurora Club is, so he thinks that his appearance is suitable for becoming a member.

Mr. A should be busy holding an extraordinary party at this moment, how could he come to such a remote place because of him.

Besides, the time doesn't match.

It has been twelve days since Earl Richard held the first ceremony, and he hasn't met Mr. A at that time.

Mr. A should not be involved in this tonight.

Hasta thought a lot, and the fear and worry in his heart gradually eased.

Seeing that Hasta remained silent for a long time, Earl Richard asked with concern: "Are you feeling uncomfortable? Your face looks a little strange."

Hasta forced a smile and said: "I just felt flattered for a moment."

"Don't worry too much, the Lord values ​​every believer equally."

"???"

Earl Richard explained: "The Lord likes newcomers very much. When each newcomer appears, He will guide them on an extraordinary path suitable for them.

Some people are suitable for audiences, some are suitable for sailors, some are suitable for lawyers, and some are suitable for eulogists..."

"..."

Hasta's forehead flashed with black lines. Why didn't you say it first for such a big thing?

"The reason why we have been following the Lord is because the Lord cares for us meticulously. He treats us with an equal and kind heart, and we must also respond with pious love."

"Yes, the Lord loves the world, and everyone loves the Lord." Hasta said perfunctorily.

Earl Richard was shocked, his eyes lit up, and he kept muttering, "God loves the world, and everyone loves God..."

When he knew that the Lord he believed in was the big toad that he believed in as a messenger between the two worlds, I wonder what kind of mood he would be in.

Hasta's nervous mood finally relaxed.
