Mystery: The Returner of the Stars

Chapter 51 Well, Just a Whip
Back home, Hastur talked with Butler Neil about the suburban manor.

"If you want to live in a suburban manor, you need at least ten more people, including maids, gardeners, and small workers..."

"The staff should be reduced as much as possible, and other things will be arranged according to your instructions."

"When are you going to live?"

"Is it possible within three days?"

"If the manor is very large, three days is too late to clean and arrange it."

Hasta didn't know how to answer this question. He had never been to that manor, but he had only heard from the old housekeeper that the manor was huge.

As for how big it is, he doesn't have a specific concept.

"Well, you look at the arrangement, the time should be as early as possible."

Hastur decided to just be a hands-off shopkeeper, and leave these troublesome matters to the butler Neil. According to him, this is the meaning of the existence of the butler.

I looked at my pocket watch, it was almost seven o'clock.

Hastur rested at home for a while, then went out and took a carriage to the Brave Bar.

He needs to discuss this matter with Maric and the others. Under normal circumstances, Maric will not refuse, but there is no guarantee that they do not want to take this risk.

Arriving at the Bar of the Brave, Kaspers greeted Hasta before he could find him.

With a solemn face, he led Hasta to a secluded corner. When there was no one around, he whispered: "Because of the fight some time ago, Maric may be targeted by someone and needs to hide for a while."

Hastur understood, and said with a smile: "I have a big manor in the suburbs, and he can come there as a guest if he wants."

"It's really a good place."

Kaspers whispered, his expression relaxed a lot, he didn't talk to Hastur again, pretended that he just happened to meet, turned around and left here.

Hastur waited for a while before leaving here and went back to Brave Bar to order a cocktail called Blue Jellyfish.

Fortunately, it's not called Blue Enchantress, otherwise it would be really hard to say.

Hastur sat in front of the bar, ordered another snack, and slowly sipped it with a cocktail.

After another half an hour, Hastur left the Bar of the Brave in a carriage.

When he got home, he went straight to the study.

In order to cope with Miss Sharon's mysterious visit, he specially placed a mirror on the right side of the study, and he also placed a sofa directly in front of the mirror, which is conducive to the conversation between the two parties.

I believe that Miss Sharron will understand what he means, and will not wait for him to go into the bathroom mirror when he is about to take a shower.

Before Miss Sharon came, Hastur sat at the desk and flipped through books.

Although he has now surpassed the need to act as a lawyer, studying the law will still help him advance in the next sequence.

It was almost eleven o'clock when Miss Sharron's figure appeared in the mirror in the study.

She is still familiar with the gothic court style long dress, and the little black hat dotted on the blond hair looks very cute.

"Sharon, that's my name."

The voice is very light, without ups and downs, but Hastur likes this kind of voice very much. He hates noisy, chattering voices.

"Hasta Campbell, it's a pleasure meeting Miss Sharon."

Hastur got up and sat on the sofa, looked at Miss Sharon in the mirror, and gave a brief introduction.

"Maric really needs to hide for a while, the suburban manor is very good."

"I'm not sure how long it will take to tidy up the manor, so I can't give you an exact time."

"Maric can wait for you near the manor first."

Hastur nodded, gave an address of the manor, and asked, "Will Miss Sharon go too?"

"uncertain."

"Isn't it too dangerous to stay here alone?"

"No, they can't find me."

Miss Sharron is really confident in her own strength.

It should be that the demigods who were chasing them didn't dare to approach Backlund. It was indeed extremely difficult to find a resentful Extraordinary in the big city of Backlund with only a Beyonder below the demigod level.

Hastur chatted with Miss Sharon for a few more words, and found that there was nothing left to talk about.

Ms. Sharron's character is not someone who will take the initiative to chat. Even if she answers, she tries to be brief and restrained.

Generally, it is impossible for her to take the initiative to bring up the topic.

"Miss Sharon seems to like this style of clothes?" Hasta tried to find a topic.

"Yes, I like it."

"Have you considered changing your dressing style?"

Sharon just stared at Hasta without answering. From her eyes, Hasta could understand that she was still a little interested in this matter.

"Miss Sharon, please wait a moment."

Hastur left the sofa, walked to the desk, took out a pen and paper, and began to scribble and draw.

He was sketching a sketch of a Lolita dress, a design not too far removed from the gothic court dresses Sharon favored.

The main reason is that the styles are somewhat different from each other. Ms. Sharron likes gothic court dresses with black as the main color, highlighting an elegant and mysterious style, with horror and death elements, which is very in line with the field of occultism.

The sketch drawn by Hasta is mainly blue and white, with lace and floral cloth, which is a classic, elegant and innocent style.

Due to the limitation of ink, Hastur specially marked the corresponding color next to it, so that Miss Sharron can see it more clearly.

Finishing the pen stop, Hasta is content to look at his masterpiece and imagine Miss Sharon in this blue and white toned Lolita outfit.

Miss Sharron like that should look cute, right?

"..."

Sharon looked at the sketch of the Lolita costume, but didn't speak for a long time, and finally disappeared under the surprised eyes of Hasta.

"Is it because you can't accept too cute style?"

It's a pity that Hasta put away this sketch. He hasn't used pink tones yet. If it is paired with cakes, candies, and small animal florals, the cuteness will definitely explode.

Ahem, he didn't think he had any bad habits, but just seeing Miss Sharron's exquisite doll-like appearance, he really wanted to design several different styles of clothing for her.

"Maybe it's because my painting is too ugly, which makes Miss Sharron disgusted."

Hasta thinks that his level of painting is average and he is not a professional.

Late at night, Hastur came to the Hall of Stars, skipped over the star where the lamp god was, and stared at the star where the mother tree of desire was.

I really want to whip a whip to test it out, otherwise I feel a little uneasy about pulling him into the Hall of Stars in the future.

Well, just whip a whip.

It's better than pulling him to the Hall of Stars and guarding against him.

There are definitely risks, but he can't just hold face-to-face meetings with the lamp god all the time.

Before that, Hastur first changed his form and appeared as the ruler of the Hall of Stars.

Then, with a thought, a chain of order was driven to extend beyond the star where the mother tree of desire was, and the chain bent and pulled down like a thunderbolt.

The starlight shattered, and the chain of order drew a fruit with a human face. The fruit with a human face shook in shock, and there was a babbling cry of a baby.

The crying sound awakened the other human face fruits nearby, and the babbling baby crying sound soon gathered like a sea, resounding through the sky!

At the same time, Hastur hurriedly let the chain of order dissipate in place as starlight, and at the same time withdrew his gaze from staring at the star.

He was sure that if he was in the same time and space as the Mother Tree of Desire just now, he would definitely be polluted by the sea of ​​babies crying!devoured!

At that last moment, he was able to sense that the Mother Tree of Desire was waking up, and His gaze was about to peek over.

After waiting for a long time, the star where the Mother Tree of Desire is located is surrounded by black light, and there is no movement at all.

Hastur turned his gaze to the star again.

The Mother Tree of Desire was indeed watching here, and even stretched out a branch and lashed at the position where the chain of order disappeared just now.

But no matter how hard he struggled, his power could not pass through the starry sky and reach the hall of stars.

This scene surprised and puzzled Hastur.

In what way does the Hall of Stars link the time and space of the two places?
Why can he drive the chain of order to the place where the mother tree of desire is, but he can't follow the chain of order to find the hall of stars?

Isn't the Hall of Stars a real place?

So whether it is the lamp god or the mother tree of desire, they can't find it, and they can't let their power affect here?
Exist entirely in an unreal place?
Hastur scanned the Hall of Stars and felt that everything here does not seem to be completely fabricated. It may be that his current sequence is too low to penetrate the secrets of the Hall of Stars.

Perhaps there is another possibility.

The Hall of Stars is real, but it is not outside the starry sky, but inside the barrier left by the original creator!

That's why the Mother Tree of Desire can't directly affect here through the barrier.

What about the Genie?
What is his reason?
Could it be that He is too weak now?

Sealed in the wishing lamp by the Lord of Mysteries, relying on the high status and the wishing lamp, his defense is indeed very powerful, and even the true gods can hardly split him.

But the power he can display is already very weak, unable to pass through the starry sky and reach the hall of stars.

If he really possessed great power, it would be impossible for him to remain in Bernadette's hands forever, polluting Bernadette and returning to the starry sky long ago.

If he couldn't even deal with a Sequence 3, it was normal that he couldn't deal with the Hall of Stars.

Hastur thought about it seriously, but felt that it was not that simple.

The origin of the Hall of Stars may be even more mysterious than he thought.

The nine sources of the earth: Chaos Sea, Origin Castle, Mother Nest, River of Eternal Darkness, City of Disaster, Kingdom of Disorder, World of Shadows, Wilderness of Knowledge, and Key of Light.

There is no source quality corresponding to the authority and ability displayed by the Hall of Stars.

At first, Hastur thought that the Hall of Stars might be part of the source of the kingdom of disorder, but when the god of lamps could not intervene in the Hall of Stars, he rejected this guess.

The kingdom of disorder originally belonged to the god of the lamp. If the god of the lamp really came here, he would definitely react, and even directly take away the kingdom of disorder and break through the seal.

"The power of the stars..."

Hastur remembered again what the Djinn had said.

Order and rules are only part of the Hall of Stars, and the stars are the masters here.
