Mystery: The Returner of the Stars

Chapter 5 Sequence 9 Lawyer!

Back home, Hastur took out the paper that recorded the lawyer's potion formula, and memorized the required Extraordinary materials and auxiliary materials.

Extraordinary materials: one stalk of jade lily of the valley, five drops of black-striped snake blood.

Auxiliary materials: crushed pear tree bark 10 mg, 100 sweet elephant grass, [-] drops of rose water, [-] ml of beer (Nanwell beer is the best).

The way to take it is also very simple, just mix all the ingredients and drink it in one gulp.

These materials are relatively common, and it is not too difficult to collect them. Among them, the most difficult black-striped snake blood can be purchased in the black market that sells extraordinary materials.

The extraordinary materials for the resurrection ceremony that the original owner purchased last time were purchased in that black market.

"I will be able to become an Extraordinary tomorrow. I really look forward to it."

For a little celebration, Hasta went downstairs to the kitchen and made a pan-fried steak, sprinkled with enough seasoning, it was very tender and tempting.

After enjoying supper, he walked to the study with heavy steps and continued to study the introductory books on the law.

……

Early the next morning, Hastur finished washing, had a quick breakfast and then locked the doors and windows to go out.

It was near three o'clock in the afternoon before he bought all the materials he needed.

Back home, he chose to dispense the potion in the kitchen.

First pour all kinds of ingredients into the pot, stir carefully with chopsticks, and then pour into the bowl.

Sniff lightly, the taste is not very good, but fortunately, the aroma of Southwell beer covers most of the flavors of other materials.

Hastur closed his eyes and drank the potion in one go.

The entrance was very cold, it didn't stay in the mouth for a long time, and soon flowed down the throat into the stomach.

His whole body started to heat up, and then the veins on his forehead twitched, and he heard whispers from another world in his ears.

In my mind, there seemed to be a starry sky rising, and chains representing order and rules descended from the sky, and rays of light bloomed in the starry sky. They were knowledge, illusions, and pairs of eyes of evil gods peeping at me.

Hastur tried to keep himself calm, imagined the Hall of Stars in his mind, and clearly outlined its shape and eleven seats one by one.

Soon, all the phantoms and voices dissipated, and the hotness in the body also eased, replaced by an exceptionally cool feeling.

He closed his eyes, carefully perceiving the changes in his body, and at the same time receiving new knowledge in his mind.

Lawyers, guardians of order are also discoverers of loopholes, understand and use rules and order, and use this to benefit themselves.

There are three main capabilities:

First, they are good at discovering and exploiting loopholes in rules and weaknesses of targets, and they are good at attacking opponents with order.

Second, have good eloquence, easily persuade the other party, and be able to distort or guide the thinking of the target to a certain extent.

Third, his thinking has become exceptionally quick, and he seems to have the extraordinary ability to see through other people's mental activities.

Other aspects of ability have also been strengthened, such as strengthening a certain physical fitness, active thinking and easy learning of new knowledge, memory is also stronger than ordinary people, and so on.

Hastur silently experienced his new ability to become a lawyer, and did not reopen his eyes until he had a general understanding of it.

Compared with other extraordinary paths, lawyers are not suitable for fighting, and they don't have much fighting ability.

They are more suitable to be a lobbyist. They are naturally easy to persuade others and let others act according to their wishes, which has a certain meaning of dominance.

"The next step is to try to activate the spiritual vision."

Hastur turned off the lamp in the room, leaving the surroundings in darkness.

In the darkness, he focused his attention on the center of his eyebrows and the position of his eyes, trying to open and close his eyes several times.

Soon after, other colors appeared in the dark world, which is a bit similar to the yin and yang eyes that can see ghosts and ghosts in movies.

He looked back and forth at the things in the room several times. Those Extraordinary materials that hadn't been used up all shone with different lights, and the things without life and extraordinary power were the same as what he usually saw.

Gradually get used to this state of spiritual vision, and didn't turn off the spiritual vision until there was pain between the eyebrows and swelling in the head.

After a short rest, he set a simple switch button for his Spirit Vision, and snapped his fingers twice in a row.

But he felt that this was too ostentatious and too obvious, so he changed the switch button to rubbing his index finger with his thumb three times.

Kind of like counting money.

After practicing for a while, there was an overwhelming pain between the eyebrows and temples.

Hastur stopped his spirit vision, went up to the second floor by leaning on the wall and the escalator in a daze, pushed away from the bedroom, threw himself on the bed, and soon fell asleep.

In the dream, the Hall of Stars reappeared, and this time it had more changes than before.

The starlight in the starry sky was extraordinarily bright, a thick platinum chain, shining brilliantly with starlight, descended from the starry sky and dropped to the back of the first seat.

In addition to this significant change, Hastur also keenly noticed that the power of the order and rules of the Hall of Stars has increased a lot.

He glanced at it a few more times, then stretched out his right index finger and thumb to rub lightly three times.

When the spirit vision was activated, a vast, extremely bright starlight first came into view.

I seem to be in the center of the entire starry sky, and the stars around me are revolving and converging around me.

The white gold chain hanging down from the starry sky turned into a regular giant pillar that stretched the sky and the earth and held the galaxy flowing!

He looked at himself again, and there were stars in the blur, which were pure astral bodies.

Every time I come to the Hall of Stars in the form of an astral body.

After scanning a few times, he turned off his spiritual vision.

Walking to the first seat and taking a seat, a new understanding surged in my heart.

The chain of order, the pillar of rules, an opportunity to formulate new orders and rules.

Hastur can clearly understand the first two nouns, but the last sentence, an opportunity to formulate new orders and rules, makes him a little confused.

This means that I can set a rule at will, and then it will affect the Hall of Stars and myself in reality?
If you make a rule that you must buy things for free, does it mean that you don’t need to pay for things you buy in the future?
It shouldn't be that simple, right?

No, it seems that if you want to buy something without paying, you don't need to go through the Hall of Stars to achieve it.

In reality, I can do this at any time, as long as I am not afraid of being caught and beaten up by traders, and invited to drink tea in the bureau.

This is a bit like the ability of the wishing magic lamp. It can help you fulfill your wish, but the way you can accomplish it is not necessarily what you want to see.

For example, make a rule that you never die.

It sounds like I can never die, but in fact, I may be sealed in a different dimension where time does not flow.

In a space where time is completely stagnant, it is true that he will not die, but he will also be imprisoned for eternity, unable to regain his freedom.

What is the use of this immortality?

Another example is to formulate a rule that one must become a god.

Is it necessary to write the specific time of becoming a god?

Even if there is a specific time, he can really become a god. Will he become a true god or an evil god?
There are too many possibilities and uncertainties.

And does such a usage similar to wishes conform to the meaning of order and rules?
Order, where order focuses on orderliness, not chaos, and order focuses on sequence, not inversion.

It means that there is a certain degree of consistency in both the natural process and the social process, which is a stable and sustainable state.

Rules, its meaning is similar to the law, a set of rules and regulations for everyone to abide by.

The two are similar but not identical.

If he really wanted to explain it, it would be difficult for him to fully explain it. After all, he has just stepped into the door of the Transcendent Path, and his understanding of the two is limited.

I can only use an example to make a slight distinction, such as crossing the road at a red light.

Stop at a red light and go at a green light. Most people will consciously abide by it, and then cross the road together when the green light is on.

This is a kind of order, which does not need to be forced or driven by others, but more of a kind of self-consciousness.

But when it comes to crossing the road, there are always people who are unwilling to abide by this order. They insist on crossing the road within the time when the red light is on, and then they are hit by a car, which leads to a traffic accident.

When a traffic accident occurs, it is natural to analyze the cause of the accident, then divide the responsibility, and finally make a judgment based on the primary and secondary responsibilities or the situation where one person is fully responsible.

Among them, the basis for the traffic police and judges to make judgments is the law, which is a kind of rule.

It can be said that the rules are more mandatory, and everyone must abide by the rules. Whether you accept it or not, the rules will not be transferred because of one person.

Of course, only the most ideal situation is discussed here.

In the real reality, there are naturally many exceptions. Every order must have shadows, and every rule must have loopholes.

Hastur thought of the symbolic meaning of lawyers again. No matter what kind of order and rules it is, there must be shadows and loopholes.

No matter what kind of rules he finally formulates, it is bound to be impossible to achieve perfection.

Faced with this situation, we can only try our best to avoid and reduce the large shadows and loopholes through appropriate words.

"It's really hard to decide."

Hastur put away all kinds of miscellaneous thoughts in his mind, and didn't have any good ideas for a while. Anyway, there is still a long way to go before he is promoted to a Sequence 8 barbarian, so he can think about it slowly.

Temporarily suppressing this matter, Hastur looked at the chain representing order and rules, he should be able to drive it now, right?

With a thought in his mind, the order chain hanging down the back of the seat floated up following his thoughts, and then flew left and right, sometimes coiled into a circle, and sometimes formed a fishing rod.

He called this chain representing order and rules the Chain of Order!

After practicing like an arm, Hastur looked at the star representing the lamp god.

Time to find a test subject for the Chains of Order.
