Mystery: The Returner of the Stars

Chapter 60 Miss Sharon is Poor Too

Are you born so good at appearing holy in front of others?

Hastur really wanted to slap Earl Richard again, but seeing Earl Richard's gradually red and swollen cheeks, he still gave up the idea.

Is this the end?
Maric was a little confused, he always felt that this matter went too smoothly tonight, and he didn't take much action!
It also knocked out the group of believers, and did not cause any harm to the spirit world creature.

The spirit creature suddenly disappeared, and was separated again by the barrier between the world and the spirit world.

When it was about to return, Hastur smashed the crystal ball with a stick, destroying the receiving coordinates.

When it played its role on Earl Richard, Earl Richard, relying on his own will, forcibly wiped out its clone, completely ending all this.

Both Hastur and Earl Richard played an important role in this battle, only he did not have any dazzling performance.

Obviously, he is the Extraordinary with the highest sequence and the strongest strength among the three.

"In general, how should we deal with this situation?" Hastur looked at Maric and asked for his opinion.

"Send it to the church for purification or purify it with flames on the spot."

Maric slowly approached Earl Richard with bad eyes.

This matter was resolved too quickly tonight, making one wonder whether the spirit creature still left something on Earl Richard.

"What do you want to do?"

Earl Richard stepped back subconsciously, then covered his sore and swollen cheeks, and said angrily, "I haven't been polluted!"

Maric curled his lips in disdain and said, "Oh, is the pollution that you can detect still called pollution?"

Faced with Maric's pressing step by step, Earl Richard was a little scared, but he still insisted: "I am a nobleman, you can't treat me like this!"

"You hold a ceremony late at night, intending to bring evil existence down. This crime alone can make you stay in the church dungeon for the rest of your life."

"The evil one is the toad, not my Lord!"

"Who knows."

Earl Richard couldn't say enough about Maric, and was also afraid of Maric's werewolf state at the moment, so he wanted to ask Hasta for help.

"Don't scare him yet, let him clear the memory of these believers tonight, so that they won't be easily polluted when they recall it later."

Hastur, who was gradually recovering from his weakness, prevented Maric from making a move at this time.

As a psychic, Earl Richard is very good at erasing memories.

He also knew that this time the disaster was caused by himself, so he worked extra hard.

After all the believers were cleared of their memories tonight, Maric woke them up from their coma.

Earl Richard stood up and said a few words, announcing that the blessing tonight was over, and told them to go to the Orthodox Church to pray devoutly after they went back.

After everything was over, Hastur and Mali Wizards discussed how to deal with Earl Richard in front of them.

Judging from Earl Richard's performance, he should not have suffered from any pollution or parasitism, but it is difficult to make a thorough conclusion about this kind of thing.

Maybe after going back tonight, when Earl Richard dreams, he will still dream of his so-called Lord, and that spirit creature can still affect him through the spirit world.

The best way is to directly destroy Earl Richard humanely and cut off all possibilities.

But he was an earl after all, and they didn't want to be charged with killing an earl.

It is better to take a milder approach and let him go to the bishops of the Orthodox Church to purify himself.

As long as a sum of money is donated, they are happy to purify believers.

Earl Richard listened silently, and finally said that he would definitely do it when he went back.

"How did an Earl like you get to this point?" Hastur was very interested in Earl Richard's extraordinary story.

"This has to start 15 years ago."

Earl Richard sighed and told the story of his stepping into the extraordinary world.

Fifteen years ago, Earl Richard was a handsome young man in his early twenties. Although he knew the existence of Extraordinary, he didn't think about pursuing it.

Until he kindly helped an old man. Before the old man died, he asked him to help with the burial and arrange all the funeral affairs.

In order to repay his great kindness, the old man gave him a booklet, which recorded three potion formulas, what to pay attention to in each sequence, and a lot of extraordinary little knowledge.

He couldn't hold back his curiosity, so he prepared all the potions and successfully became an Extraordinary, Sequence Nine Corpse Collector.

According to the booklet, if you want to advance to a higher sequence, you must learn to be a real corpse collector.

He doesn't know much about these occult knowledge, and his aristocratic status makes it difficult for him to be a taboo corpse collector.

Only when he came to live in the manor in the outskirts, would he go to the nearby villages and occasionally try to collect the corpses.

It took about eight years for him to experience the wonderful feeling recorded in the pamphlet, then took the potion and became a Sequence 8 gravedigger.

He didn't become a Sequence 7 psychic until last year.

That is, when he becomes a psychic, he hears the voice of the Lord.

According to the Lord's guidance, he summoned the Lord's messenger through rituals, that is, the toad creature from the spirit world.

Then step by step to develop new believers to the present.

Regarding the ceremony, this is already the third large-scale ceremony he has held.

There were no abnormalities in the previous two ceremonies, and he and the believers could indeed feel the blessing from the Lord.

It was a very warm feeling. After each blessing, I would be full of energy and vitality, and some minor illnesses could be cured.

Because of this, he will unswervingly believe in the Lord.

"Have you ever thought that the one who guided you from the beginning was the toad messenger?" Maric couldn't help asking.

"impossible!"

Earl Richard replied affirmatively, and said with disdain: "With such an ugly creature, how could it be the Lord! It must be trying to steal the Lord's position while the Lord is not paying attention!"

"Not only does it want to pretend to be the Lord, but it also pretends to be the voice of the Lord! If I catch it, I will definitely roast it on the fire!"

Hasta's eyes narrowed, the charcoal-roasted bullfrog, sprinkled with seasonings, is absolutely delicious.

Maric looked at Earl Richard like a madman: "Do you know what kind of existence a spirit world creature is?"

"Aren't spirit world creatures also creatures? Can't they be killed?"

"..."

It was difficult for Maric to talk to the earl who lacked knowledge of occultism.

"Thank you both for your help tonight, so that my lord's majesty has not been profaned. I am willing to pay as much as I can for this."

Before leaving, Earl Richard raised the matter of thanking him, Hastur and Maric looked at him much more kindly.

Knowing how to repay kindness is a good nobleman.

Earl Richard paused, and said awkwardly: "My knowledge of the extraordinary world is limited, and I don't have any special good things. I only have some gold pounds and a little land."

"I know these things are rather tacky, but they are already the best thank you gift I can come up with so far."

Some gold pounds?A little land?
This is a new way to show off your wealth.

Hastur sighed in his heart, he likes these vulgar things now, if Earl Richard really gave him a sealed item, he would not dare to use it.

Maric had the same feeling as Hastur, coughed twice, and said: "We believe in the sincerity and generosity of a nobleman."

"Is a thank you gift of 1000 gold pounds okay?"

Earl Richard's expression was disturbed, and he felt that this thank you gift was a bit too cheap compared to his earl status.

But he has spent a lot of money recently, and he hasn't managed the plantation much, so the income has been reduced compared to the previous few years. He is not good at investing, and he doesn't have much cash at present.

1000 gold pounds, that is 500 gold pounds per person, which is not a small fortune.

Neither Hastur nor Maric refused the door-to-door thank you gift.

It wasn't until Earl Richard said that it was 1000 gold pounds per person that they lamented that they were worthy of being an earl, that is, they were rich.

Earl Richard must have not brought so much money with him, so he asked Hasta to follow him to the manor as a guest, and at the same time gave a thank you gift.

Regarding the matter of being a guest, Hasta did not agree. He asked Maric to accompany Earl Richard back to the manor to withdraw money, and at the same time asked Maric to be careful.

His spiritual strength was basically exhausted tonight, so he didn't dare to take any more risks.

After seeing off Maric and Earl Richard, Hastur was also preparing to return to the lake, resting while waiting for good news from Maric.

Carrying the big wooden stick, he followed the original road back to the lake. Not long after he sat down to rest, he heard a voice coming into his ears.

"If something like this happens again in the future, you can call me."

"Miss Sharon, have you been around tonight?"

"Ah."

Under the hazy moonlight, Sharon floated down from the top of the tree and landed opposite Hastur, separated from him by a bonfire.

Even in such a dense forest, she can't see any grass clippings or branches and leaves on her body, she is clean and spotless.

"Okay, if this kind of dangerous thing happens again in the future, I will definitely notify Miss Sharron in advance."

"No, I'm talking about the chance to earn a thousand gold pounds."

"..."

Hastur put away his gratitude, and his eyes became complicated. It turned out that Miss Sharon was also very poor.

Sharon didn't speak either, she just glanced at Hastur silently, then turned her gaze to the bonfire.

In the light of the fire, her face seemed to be a little red?
Hastur wiped his eyes lightly, and took another look, only to see a calm face without any waves.

Was that scene just an illusion?

"Miss Sharron has been supporting us in the dark tonight?" Hasta changed the subject.

"It was at the beginning, and then I met a Extraordinary with malicious intentions."

There are other people peeping in the dark!

Hastur frowned and said, "Does Miss Sharron know the identity of that Extraordinary?"

"He didn't conflict with me, he just confronted me from a distance, and he didn't leave until you solved the spirit world creature."

Sharon thought for a while, and then said flatly: "He should be a member of the secret prayer path, maybe a member of the Aurora Society."

Aurora Society?
Could it be Mr. A? !

Hastur's heart trembled, and there was a feeling of cold sweat behind his back.

How could Mr. A appear here?

Did you really come here specifically for yourself?
Or is this ceremony originally related to Aurora?

Many small question marks popped up in Hastur's heart, and the more he thought about it, the more afraid he became.

If Miss Sharron didn't show up tonight, would Mr. A shoot him?
